Abstract

Elektrischer Kontakt umfassend
- ein Kontaktelement, das
- einen Verbindungsabschnitt aufweist, der zur elektrisch leitenden Verbindung mit einem elektrischen Leiter dient,
- einen mit dem Verbindungsabschnitt einstückig verbundenen Kontaktträgerabschnitt zur Kontaktierung eines Gegenkontaktes aufweist, und

- ein Stützelement, das
- den Kontaktträgerabschnitt auf zumindest einem Teil seiner Länge entlang einer Längsachse umschließt und im Querschnitt als ein durch vier Wände umgrenztes hohles Rechteck gestaltet ist,
- entlang der Längsachse ein vorderes Ende und dem Verbindungsabschnitt zugewandt ein hinteres Ende besitzt,
- einen dem vorderen Ende nahen ersten Vorsprung aufweist, der einen vom vorderen Ende in Richtung zum hinteren Ende sich von der Längsachse entfernenden ersten Einführungsabschnitt aufweist, der Seitenwände aufweist, und der mit einer Endkante endet,
- einen dem hinteren Ende nahen zweiten Vorsprung aufweist, der einen in Richtung zum hinteren Ende sich von der Längsachse entfernenden zweiten Einführungsabschnitt aufweist, welcher von dem ersten Vorsprung weg sich von der Längsachse entfernend ansteigend verläuft,
- wobei sowohl der erste Vorsprung als auch der zweite Vorsprung aus einer der Wände spanlos geformt sind, so dass sie von der Längsachse weg von der zugehörigen Wand vorspringen.

Comprising electrical contact
- A contact element, the
a connection section which serves for the electrically conductive connection to an electrical conductor,
- Has a integrally connected to the connecting portion contact carrier portion for contacting a mating contact, and

a support element that
the contact carrier section encloses at least part of its length along a longitudinal axis and is designed in cross-section as a hollow rectangle delimited by four walls,
has a front end along the longitudinal axis and a rear end facing the connecting section,
a first protrusion near the front end, having a first insertion portion, which has sidewalls, and which terminates with an end edge, extending from the front end towards the rear end, away from the longitudinal axis;
a second projection close to the rear end, having a second insertion section, which extends away from the longitudinal axis towards the rear end and which extends away from the longitudinal axis, away from the first projection,
- Wherein both the first projection and the second projection of one of the walls are formed without cutting, so that they project from the longitudinal axis away from the associated wall.
