Estimating the term…
The invention relates to a two-part crimped contact element. The invention further relates to a method for producing a two-part crimped contact element. The invention further relates to a device for producing a two-part crimped contact element. Previous crimped contact elements comprising two portions have a high transition resistance between the two portions and insufficient mechanical stability. The crimped contact element according to the invention overcomes these disadvantages by at least one pressure-shaped connection element being used to connect the two portions.
1-8. (canceled)
A crimped contact element comprising a crimped wire portion for securing a wire or a cable and a contact member for connection to a mating connector, the crimped contact element being produced from at least two portions, wherein the at least two portions are joined together by means of at least one pressure-shaped connection element.
A method for producing a crimped contact element from at least two portions, wherein at least one of the two portions is pressure-shaped and the at least one portion is connected to at least another of the two portions during the pressure-shaping operation.
A device for producing a crimped contact element from at least two portions, wherein the device comprises a pressure-shaping connection unit for producing a pressure-shaped connection element which connects at least two portions of the crimped contact element.
