Strip of border-held contact elements for a connection device, and a process for forming such contact elements

摘要

The invention relates to the field of contact elements for electric connection. In use, when these elements are positioned and connected to the wiring of circuits by automatic machines, they are fixed in a large number on a supporting strip or border, from which they are successively detached by a V-shaped cut. In accordance with the invention, they are firmly secured by means of a transverse V-section bar supported by a stirrup. After the V cut, the contact thus presents advantageously a pyramid-shaped point.
