  • Process for connecting conductive parts of an electrical switch component
    Patent number: 4861954
    Abstract: For simplified and more rapid production of a switch component (1) with a bimetallic element (3) and a switch (6) which can be actuated by this via a transmission element (15), the carrier or feed parts (4) are connected to the contact parts (5) by welding. For this purpose, each carrier or feed part (4) has a vertical weld section (8) passed through the insulating body (2) and having a smaller cross sectional surface than the remaining portion of the carrier or feed part (4).
