Abstract
A connection pin of a feedthrough of an implantable medical electronic device has a primarily cylindrical pin body and at least one flattened end section. The flattened end section has at least one planar connecting surface formed on it, especially for connection by material bonding of a band-shaped conductor.
Claims17
A connection pin of a feedthrough of an implantable medical electronic device, the connection pin comprising:
- an elongated pin body extending along a longitudinal axis of said pin body, said elongated pin body having a first end and a second end;
- a first flattened end section integrally connected to said first end, said first flattened end section having a cross-section area that is smaller than a cross-section area of said pin body;
- a first planar connecting surface formed on said first flattened end section, the first planar connecting surface extending parallel to an extension direction of said first flattened end section;
- a second flattened end section integrally connected to said second end, said second flattened end section having a cross-section area that is smaller than a cross-section area of said pin body;
- and
- a second planar connecting surface formed on said second flattened end section, the second planar connecting surface extending parallel to an extension direction of said second end.
