Abstract
The electric load comprises a carrier plate (1) of a synthetic resin material, at a first side (2) of which, synthetic resin projections (30) are present, which serve as a means for coupling the electric load to a holder. The projections (30) have a leg (31) with a disc, which faces away from the plate (1), and a channel (33) accommodating a current conductor (5) of a load element (4), which is present at a first side (3) of the plate (1). The disc has a circumferential side face (35), which is covered with an electric conductor (20) as a contact, to which a respective current conductor (5) is connected. The electric load, for example a fluorescent lamp switch, is of a simple construction that can be manufactured at low costs.
Claims7
An electric load comprising a carrier plate (1) of an insulating material,
- at a first side (2) of which, there are contacts and means for mechanically coupling the load to a holder, and
- at a second side (3) of which, there is a load element (4),
- which load element (4) has current conductors (5), which are connected to a respective contact, characterized in that
- the carrier plate (1) comprises synthetic resin projections (30), which serve as means for coupling the load to a holder,
- which projections are provided with a shank (31) with a disc (32) at some distance from the carrier plate (1), which projections are further provided with a duct (33) accommodating one of the current conductors (5),
- which disc (32) has an end face (34) facing away from the carrier plate (1) and a circumferential side face (35),
- at least the side face (35) being covered with an electric conductor (20), which is connected as a contact to the relevant current conductor (5).
