Abstract (en)

[origin: US6229109B1] A contact pin is operationally connected through racks and pinions to a movable mating contact arrangement in such a way that it executes a movement counter thereto. Through two spokes through which the racks are guided, it bears a contact ring which surrounds it coaxially at a distance and preferably has a radius which is four to eight times as large. In a groove on its outer side, the contact ring bears a circumferential spiral contact which forms with the inner side of a contact tube, which finishes in a fixed nominal-current contact, a sliding contact arrangement having good current transfer in conjunction with a short length.
