CONTACT ELEMENT AND USE OF SUCH A CONTACT ELEMENT IN A PLUG CONNECTION

摘要

A contact element (10) comprises a spring-elastic carrier strip (11) extending in a longitudinal direction, and a plurality of web elements (17) having deformable feet (18), (19) that are disposed on the carrier strip (11) in the longitudinal carrier strip direction behind each other perpendicular to the carrier strip plane in a resilient manner in order to establish the electric contact between two opposing surfaces. A more compact design is achieved in that the web elements (17) are configured asymmetrically in relation to a center plane (M1) extending in the longitudinal carrier strip direction.
