Abstract: A casing for electrical components, component assemblies or integrated circuits, and particularly for electrical surface-wave filters, is disclosed as well as a method of production therefor where the electrically active element rests on a base strip from which project outgoing connectors through the casing walls. The connectors provide mechanical and electrical connection to printed circuit boards. A thermosetting-plastic trough adheres closely to the underside of the base strip, while the side-wall reels of the trough rest on the borders of the upper surface of the base strip. Over the trough is placed a thermosetting-plastic lid so that the active element is contained in an enclosure. The trough-and-lid assembly is then coatable in thermosetting plastic.

Abstract: Electric coil including a coil form having means at respective ends thereof for carrying respective soldering lugs, respective magnetizable cores disposed on the coil form at the respective ends thereof, and springs formed with angled-off ends, the springs respectively engaging the magnetizable cores at the respective ends of the coil form, the carrying means and said angled-off ends of the springs, respectively, being formed with respective laterally extending projections and recesses snappable over the projections so as to urge the cores towards one another.
