  • Sheet metal part with improved connection tab geometry
    Patent number: 9882289
    Abstract: An electrical connector unit and having an electrical connector and a connection tab connected to the electrical connector or connecting the electrical connector to a carrier-strip when a carrier strip is included in the electrical connector unit. The connector tab has a weakened shear resistance zone, so when the connection tab is sheared to separate it from the electrical connector or to separate the electrical connector and the carrier-strip, a reduced shearing force is required to shear the connection tab.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: September 12, 2016
    Date of Patent: January 30, 2018
    Assignees: TE Connectivity India Private, TE Connectivity Germany GmbH
