Abstract (en)

[origin: WO9215107A1] The contact element (10) disclosed is made of round wire which is bent in the shape of a hairpin to give two parallel sides (11, 12), at least one of which acts as a weld-on terminal pin. The bent zone between the two sides is stamped flat to give a common contact zone (14) with a plane surface and fitted with a contact piece. The invention thus makes it particularly simple to produce high-current contacts with circuit-board terminals.
