  • Patent number: 11489277
    Abstract: An electrical connector includes at least one base body with at least one contact portion and at least one connection portion. The connection portion is provided for fastening an electrical conductor. The base body is made of a first material, and a layer of a second material is arranged in a surface area of the contact portion. An electrical connector that ensures reliable electrical contacting even under heavy mechanical stresses is realized by applying the layer of the second material by means of roll cladding or an additive manufacturing process.

  • Publication number: 20210305745
    Abstract: An electrical connector includes a base body having a contact portion and a connection portion. The base body has a plug receptacle in the contact portion and a latching arm for fastening the connector. The latching arm is formed at least partially from a first layer of material and a second layer of material. The latching arm is pivotable out of a latching position counter to a spring force at least in the direction of a release position. Thus, reliable fastening of the electrical connector is ensured with low assembly force because the first layer and the second layer are at least partially separated from each other when the latching arm is pivoted in the direction of the release position.
