  • ELECTROMECHANICAL LOW VOLTAGE SWITCH
    Publication number: 20150114809
    Abstract: An electromechanical low voltage switch has a movable switching element that has an electrically conductive support and at least one electrical contact piece attached to this support. The support consists, at least in part, of a metal or of an alloy, the density of which lies below 5 g/cm3.

  • Method for producing a semifinished product and semifinished product for electrical contacts and contact piece
    Patent number: 8992826
    Abstract: The method relates to a method for producing a strand-like, particularly band-like semi-finished part for electrical contacts, wherein the semi-finished part has a top side intended for making the electrical contact, said top side made from a silver-based composite material in which one or multiple metal oxides or carbon are embedded, and has a carrier layer supporting the composite material made of easily solderable or weldable ignoble metal, and method having the following steps: Powder-metallurgic production of a block made from the silver-based composite material, encasing of the block made of the composite material with a powder made from the easily solderable or weldable ignoble metal, compressing the block, encased by the metal powder, to condense the metal powder, sintering the compressed block in a reducing atmosphere or in an inert atmosphere or in a vacuum, avoiding the formation of fluid eutectics from the silver of the composite material and from the non-precious metal with which the block made f
