Contact element for an electrical plug connector apparatus

摘要

A contact element for an electrical plug connecting device, having a molded first end section and a molded elongated receiving section which defines a longitudinal axis for mechanical and electrical coupling and/or receiving a mating contact element designed to be complementary to the contact element of a plug connecting device to be paired with the electrical plug connecting device, both of which are manufactured of an electrically conductive material. The elongated receiving section extends essentially cylindrically from the first end section. This end section as well as the elongated cylindrical receiving section are molded to be free of seams and butt joints by shaping the electrically conducting material by means of a force acting at least predominantly parallel to the longitudinal axis, and at least the receiving section molded by shaping the electrically conducting material forms a cylindrical interior sheathed by the molded electrically conducting material along the longitudinal axis.

主权项

1. A contact element for an electrical plug connector device, wherein the contact element comprises:
from an electrically conductive material, (i) a molded first end section, and (ii) a molded elongated receiving section, which defines a longitudinal axis, for mechanical and electrical coupling and/or receiving a mating contact element designed to be complementary to the contact element as part of a plug connector device to be paired with the electrical plug connector device, wherein the elongated receiving section extends essentially cylindrically from the first end section, and wherein the first end section and the elongated cylindrical receiving section are molded by shaping the electrically conducting material by means of a force acting at least predominantly parallel to the longitudinal axis, so that both the first end section and the elongated cylindrical receiving section are free of seams and butt joints, and at least the receiving section, which is molded by shaping the electrically conducting material, forms a cylindrical interior sheathed by the molded electrically conducting material along the longitudinal axis and a closed end opposite the first end section on the elongated cylindrical receiving section, wherein a connecting device for mechanical and electrical coupling and/or to receive an electrical connecting conductor is welded or soldered onto the first end section, so that the contact element supplies a completely closed contact pin.
