Abstract (en)

[origin: EP0369231A2] Contacting device, particularly for liquid crystal display elements (LCD display elements) which are arranged in a carrier plate, on which thin metal conductor tracks, which are to be contacted superficially and which are arranged next to one another at a distance, are applied, for example vapour-deposited, the contacting device having a housing made of plastic with an insertion slit for the carrier plate, a plurality of electric contact elements arranged next to one another and made of metal being mounted in the housing, the active and connecting elements of which contact elements are arranged in one plane in each case, and which project in each case with a plug pin or solder pin or similar connecting element from the housing and have in the region opposite the connecting element arm-shaped contact elements which project into the insertion slit and contact the conductor tracks of the plugged-in carrier plate, each contact element having a bow spring, the spring arm of which facing the connecting element is mounted firmly in the housing, and the other spring arm of which is integrally connected with a bow-shaped contact web which projects into the insertion slit of the housing and forms a contact point for a conductor track of the carrier plate, actuation means being mounted in or on the housing which pivot the other spring arm indirectly or directly when actuated, the contact web thereby being moved out of the region of the insertion slit or into the region of the insertion slit.
