Abstract: A multipart contacting assembly has at least two substantially flat contact plates with flat faces that provide contacting zones having contact elements extending from the lateral edge for contacting mating contacts, and a contact cage which is bent in a substantially U-shaped or V-shaped manner having a base section and two opposing contact arms protruding therefrom. The contact cage provides two respective contact ribs running next to one another in pairs for each contact plate, thereby forming a press-in gap with press-in zones which are situated opposite one another in pairs, wherein each press-in zone is oriented toward the press-in gap so that the two contacting zones of each contact plate are fixed between press-in zones in a form- and force-fitting manner in the assembled state, and wherein the free end of each contact arm of the contact cage has an inner contact zone for contacting another contact element.

Abstract: A temperature sensor for an inverter for operating an electric drive in an electric vehicle or hybrid vehicle includes at least one rod-shaped signal connector, a mount, and a sensor printed circuit board, wherein at least one groove is formed in the mount for the at least one rod-shaped signal connector, wherein the at least one rod-shaped signal connector has an insertion part that is inserted in a printed circuit board in the inverter, wherein the insertion part extends beyond an upper edge of the mount facing the printed circuit board, wherein the at least one rod-shaped signal connector extends at the bottom beyond a lower edge of the mount facing away from the printed circuit board, wherein a sensor element for temperature detection is placed on an end of the sensor printed circuit board facing away from the printed circuit board.
