An assembly (2) is described for the electrical connection of two components, in particular of a power electronics switch (58) to an electric motor (56) of a charging device (48), wherein a first component (24) has a first contact element (4) made from a conductive material and formed along a longitudinal axis (6) and designed with an outer surface (8) at least partially surrounding the longitudinal axis (6), and a second component (30) has a second contact element (14) made from a conductive material and is designed with a cavity (18) formed along the longitudinal axis (6), whose inner surface (20) corresponds to the outer surface (8) of the first contact element (4), wherein either the inner surface (20) of the second contact element (14) or the outer surface (8) of the first contact element (4) is provided with a profile (22) which has a plurality of projecting elements, wherein the inner surface (20) and the outer surface (8) are selected with respect to their lateral dimensions such that the projecting elements of the profile (22) penetrate in an area close to the surface during insertion of the first contact element (4) into the second contact element (14).
An assembly for the electrical connection of two components, wherein a first component has a first contact element, made from a conductive material and formed along a longitudinal axis and designed with an outer surface at least partially surrounding the longitudinal axis, and a second component has a second contact element made from a conductive material and is designed with a cavity formed along the longitudinal axis, whose inner surface corresponds to the outer surface of the first contact element, wherein either the inner surface of the second contact element or the outer surface of the first contact element is provided with a profile which has a plurality of projecting elements around a perimeter, wherein the inner surface and the outer surface are selected with respect to their lateral dimensions such that the projecting elements of the profile penetrate in an exterior area close to the surface during insertion of the first contact element into the second contact element, wherein the height of the projecting elements leads to a local bonding at the inner surface and the outer surface during the insertion.
