  • Patent number: 8723043
    Abstract: This invention relates to an electrical conductor (25) which is composed at least partially of an electrically conductive material. According to the invention, at least part of the electrical conductor (25) is provided with a protective layer (11) whose specific electrical conductivity is lower, at least locally, than that of the electrically conductive material of the conductor (25).
    Type: Grant
    Filed: February 28, 2008
    Date of Patent: May 13, 2014
    Assignee: W.E.T. Automotive Systems AG
    Inventors: Michael Weiss, Peter Tremmel, Markus Völk
  • Patent number: 8198569
    Abstract: A surface structure (1) that is at least partially electrically conductively coated by a conductor coating (11), and which can be connected to an electric power source by at least one electric connecting conductor (2). The connecting conductor (2) electrically contacts the conductor coating (11) at at least one solder point (3), and the conductive coating (11) is thickened at least at one contact zone (4) in the area of the solder point (3) as opposed to other areas (7) of the surface structure (1).
