  • Patent number: 10292272
    Abstract: A device for orienting contact terminals on an electrical component such that they fit to a circuit board of an electric circuit is disclosed. In an embodiment the device includes a carrier element configured to receive the electrical component and a plurality of bending elements, wherein the carrier element has a plurality of holes, each hole penetrating the carrier element from an upper side to an underside, wherein a respective section of the bending elements is secured to the carrier element and a respective end of the bending elements projects into a respective hole of the carrier element, and wherein the bending elements are configured such that the respective end of the bending elements, upon insertion of a respective contact terminal of the electrical component into the respective hole from the upper side of the carrier element, is bent within the hole and clamps the respective contact terminal.

  • Patent number: 10256026
    Abstract: A transformer component for setting an inductance and method for manufacturing a transformer component are disclosed. In an embodiment, the transformer component includes a first core part with a middle limb and a second core part with a middle limb, an end side of the middle limb of the first core part and an end side of the middle limb of the second core part being opposite one another. The first core part and the second core part respectively have a bearing area with a respective slope. A width of a gap between the end side of the middle limb of the first core part and the end side of the middle limb of the second core part depends on a position in which the bearing area of the first core part bears against the bearing area of the second core part.
