Embodiment Construction

[0053] first refer to attached Figures 1 to 4 The structure of the contact element according to the present invention will be described. refer to Figure 5 , the function of the contact element according to the invention is described in connection with the arrangement according to the invention for electrical contacting.

[0054] figure 1 is a schematic diagram of a contact element 1 according to the invention and figure 2 is a longitudinal section view. The contact element 1 is formed from an electrically conductive contact material 3 as a single bent / punched part. The body 5 of the contact element 1 extends in the insertion direction E. As shown in FIG. At the end oriented in the direction of insertion E, the contact element 1 has an end region S with an end 26 and at its end oriented in the direction opposite to the direction of insertion E has a crimped region C .

[0055] The body 5 has a catch opening 9 at its upper side 7 . The catch opening 9 is delimited by ...

Abstract

The invention relates to a contact element comprised of an electrically conductive contact material (3), the contact element (1) being constructed so as to be able to be inserted in an insertion direction (E) into a plug type connector and being constructed so as to be able to be fixed in the plug type connector by means of a positive-locking connection (60). In order to provide a contact element (1) which is secured against undesirable removal from the plug type connector and which at the same time can be guided in a non-destructive manner through a housing and / or a seal of the plug type connector, there is provided according to the invention a contact element, wherein the positive-locking connection (60) comprises a catch opening (9) at an upper side (7) of the contact element (1), which opening is delimited in the insertion direction (E) by two guiding faces (21, 21'), and wherein the guiding faces (21, 21') are formed by a reinforced region (V a , V b ), in which the contact material (3) at least partially overlaps itself in at least two layers transversely relative to the insertion direction (E).

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a contact element consisting of an electrically conductive contact material, which is configured so that it can be inserted into a plug-type connector in an insertion direction and is configured so that it can be locked by means of a positive locking connection. Fastened in a plug-type connector. The invention also relates to an arrangement comprising such a contact element. Background technique [0002] The contact elements are generally used in and held by the housing. In order to hold the contact elements in the housing of the plug-type connector in a secure manner, a positive locking connection is used so that either part of the housing protrudes into the opening of the contact element or part of the contact element protrudes into the plug. opening in the plug connector housing. Since the contact elements are often produced from thin-walled materials, eg by means of bending / stamping techniques, these materials have a low...
