Electrical connector and method for producing an electrical connector

摘要

The invention relates to an electrical connector (1). The invention further relates to a method for producing an electrical connector (1). Electrical connectors are used in many fields. It is often necessary to change the spacing between two electrical conductors in a region of an arrangement. An object of the invention is to provide a solution which is less complex than the solutions from the prior art. This object is achieved by an electrical connector (1) having a housing portion (2) which has two guiding channels (4) which are spaced apart from each other, and having two elongate contact elements (5) which each extend through a guiding channel (4), and having a splayed member (3) which has two splayed faces (7) which are associated with the contact elements (5) and which at an end (31) facing away from the guiding channels (4) have a larger spacing from each other than the guiding channels (4), wherein the splayed member (3) tapers in the direction towards the guiding channels (4). In a method according to the invention for producing an electrical connector (1), the splayed member (3) is moved in the direction of the housing portion (2) and the contact elements (5) are thereby splayed open.
