High current contact and corresponding method for producing a high current contact assembly

摘要

The invention relates to a high current contact having a contact pin, which has at least one contact opening, and a contact terminal, which has at least one contact limb, wherein the at least one contact limb of the contact terminal is connected to a corresponding contact opening of the contact pin on at least one joint region to produce an electrical contact and to receive mechanical forces, and to a corresponding method for producing said high current contact. According to the invention, producing the electrical contact between the contact pin and the contact terminal is largely separate from the receiving of mechanical forces, wherein the electrical contact between the contact pin and the contact terminal is produced by a first connection type and the mechanical forces are received by a second connection type.

主权项

1. A high current contact comprising a contact pin (10), which has at least one contact opening (15), and a contact terminal (20), which has at least one contact limb (24), wherein the at least one contact limb (24) of the contact terminal (20) is connected to a corresponding contact opening (15) of the contact pin (10) on at least one joint region (14) to produce an electrical contact and to receive mechanical forces, characterized in that producing the electrical contact between the contact pin (10) and the contact terminal (20) is largely separate from the receiving of mechanical forces, wherein the electrical contact between said contact pin (10) and said contact terminal (20) is produced by a first connection type (7) and the mechanical forces are received by a second connection part (5),
characterized in that the electrical contact between the contact pin (10) and the contact terminal (20) is produced by a pressure contact (7) between the at least one contact opening (15) of said contact pin (10) and the at least one contact limb (24) of said contact terminal (20), wherein the pressure contact (7) is produced by plastic deformations of at least one of the contact opening (15) and of the contact limb (24).
