  • Publication number: 20070154688
    Abstract: In order in particular to allow interconnects to be applied to a component (2) by a thermal spraying process in such a way that they are clearly delimited from one another, before the actual spraying process the surface (8) of the component (2) is treated, in particular laser treated, in such a way that a non-adhering region (14) with a nub-like surface structure is formed.

  • Publication number: 20050009376
    Abstract: A simple connection of a conventional electrical unit to the conductor tracks of an electric system, such as a motor vehicle electric system, is provided. The conductor tracks are directly applied to a support, for example, by flame spraying. A terminal adapter is placed, via a partial element, between the support, which is fitted with the conductor tracks, and the electrical unit to be connected. The conductor tracks are guided, inside the terminal adapter to a conventional electrical connection of the unit.

  • Publication number: 20040055153
    Abstract: In the method for producing a molding with an integrated conductor run, a conductor run is produced on a mount component in particular with the aid of gas flame spraying or cold gas spraying. For this purpose, the surface of the mount component is selectively treated in a corresponding manner to a profile that is provided for the conductor run, such that the surface has areas of different adhesion. A germination layer is applied to the profile that is provided for the conductor run, and the actual conductor run is then in turn applied to the germination layer. This makes it possible to produce a molding with an integrated conductor run pattern in a highly flexible and cost-effective manner. Specific customer wishes can be implemented at short notice and without any problems by a change to the conductor run layout, particularly in the field of motor vehicles.
