Abstract
A press-fit connecting element for being pressed into a first contact opening in a first connection element and into a second contact opening in a second connection element is provided. The press-fit connecting element includes an elongated base body configured to be guided through the second contact opening in the second connection element to the first contact opening in the first connection element. The press-fit connecting element further includes a first press-fit zone configured to contact-connect the first contact opening in a force-fitting manner and a second press-fit zone which is at a distance from the first press-fit zone in a longitudinal direction and configured to contact-connect the second contact opening in a force-fitting manner.
Claims15
A press-fit connecting element for being pressed into a first contact opening in a first connection element and into a second contact opening in a second connection element, the press-fit connecting element comprising:
- an elongated base body configured to be guided through the second contact opening in the second connection element to the first contact opening in the first connection element;
- a first press-fit zone configured to contact-connect the first contact opening in a force-fitting manner;
- and
- a second press-fit zone which is at a distance from the first press-fit zone in a longitudinal direction and configured to contact-connect the second contact opening in a force-fitting manner.
A connecting system for electronic modules, comprising:
- an electronic module including a first connection element having a first contact opening;
- an external connection element having a second contact opening;
- and
- a press-fit connecting element including an elongated base body configured to be guided through the second contact opening in the external connection element to the first contact opening in the first connection element of the electronic module, the press-fit connecting element having a first press-fit zone configured to contact-connect the first contact opening in a force-fitting manner and a second press-fit zone which is at a distance from the first press-fit zone in a longitudinal direction and configured to contact-connect the second contact opening in a force-fitting manner.
