- a thermal spraying process such as hot gas spraying or, preferably, flame spraying
- the material may also be conveyed via a cold process, e.g. be applied with the so-called cold gas spraying.
- the particles to be scrubbed are not melted or fused.
- the electrical conductor used is preferably an aluminum conductor, in particular consisting of a plurality of individual conductors or strands.
- Soft material is to be understood here in particular as conducting materials from the elements of the third row of the Periodic Table, in particular aluminum, aluminum alloys or magnesium alloys.
- Hard material is understood to mean, in particular, conductive materials of elements of the fourth row of the periodic table, for example copper, nickel, iron, chromium and alloys for this purpose, in particular chromium-nickel alloys.

- the increase in the contact cross-sectional area is in principle also advantageous for other types of contacting, for example when contacting with a conductive adhesive, when contacting with an elastic, conductive material which is pressed against the conductor or in the case of soldered connections.
- the conductor is an aluminum battery cable, especially for a motor vehicle, and the contact element is a battery terminal.
- ladders made of aluminum are increasingly used for the purpose of saving weight.
- the battery cable which has a very large cross section due to the high currents and therefore has a very high weight when using, for example, copper, a relatively high weight saving is made possible by the use of an aluminum cable.

- the particular thermal spraying method is chosen in this case and the spraying parameters are adjusted such that the conductive material at least partially penetrates into the conductor and at least partially penetrates an oxide layer possibly present on the conductor surface.

- the jacket 8A is applied by means of a thermal spraying method, for example hot gas spraying or so-called flame spraying.
- a thermal spraying method for example hot gas spraying or so-called flame spraying.
- the material for the jacket 8A in particular, a nickel-chromium-nickel alloy is selected.
- the jacket 8A is formed by multiple over-molding with a sufficiently high wall thickness such that the jacket 8A overall has a high intrinsic rigidity and thus dimensional stability.
- the jacket 8A is therefore formed in the manner of a stiff tube.

Abstract
Description
Die Erfindung betrifft eine elektrische Kontaktverbindung zwischen einem elektrischen Leiter aus einem weichen Material, insbesondere ein Aluminiumleiter, und einem Kontaktelement gemäß dem Oberbegriff des Anspruchs 1. Die Erfindung betrifft weiterhin ein Verfahren zum Ausbilden einer solchen Kontaktverbindung gemäß dem Oberbegriff des Anspruchs 8.The invention relates to an electrical contact connection between an electrical conductor made of a soft material, in particular an aluminum conductor, and a contact element according to the preamble of claim 1. The invention further relates to a method for forming such a contact connection according to the preamble of claim 8.
Eine derartige Kontaktverbindung ist aus der
Bei einer elektrischen Kontaktverbindung zwischen einem weichen Material, wie beispielsweise Aluminium, Magnesium oder Legierungen hiervon, mit einem härteren Material besteht das Problem, dass das weiche Material bei einer Druckbeanspruchung im Laufe der Zeit dem Druck ausweicht, so dass die elektrische Kontaktverbindung geschwächt wird und es zu Kontaktproblemen kommen kann. Diese Eigenschaft der weichen Materialien, bei einer Druckeinwirkung nachzugeben, wird allgemein als Materialfließen oder Kaltfließen bezeichnet.In an electrical contact connection between a soft material, such as aluminum, magnesium or alloys thereof, with a harder material has the problem that the soft material evades the pressure under pressure during a time, so that the electrical contact connection is weakened and can come to contact problems. This property of soft materials to yield under pressure is commonly referred to as material flow or cold flow.
Aufgrund dieses Kaltfließens bestehen erhebliche Probleme, langzeitstabile, sichere Kontaktverbindungen zwischen einem weichen und einem harten Material zu gewährleisten.Due to this cold flow, there are considerable problems to ensure long-term stable, secure contact connections between a soft and a hard material.
Der vorliegenden Erfindung liegt die Aufgabe zugrunde, eine sichere elektrische Kontaktverbindung zwischen einem weichen, zum Kaltfluss neigenden Material und einem weiteren Kontaktelement zu ermöglichen.The present invention has for its object to provide a secure electrical contact connection between a soft, prone to cold flow material and another contact element.
Die Aufgabe wird erfindungsgemäß gelöst durch eine elektrische Kontaktverbindung mit den Merkmalen des Patentanspruchs 1. Danach ist vorgesehen, dass ein elektrischer Leiter aus einem weichen, zum Kaltfluss neigenden Material in seinem Kontaktbereich zumindest teilweise mit Hilfe eines Spritzverfahrens mit einem im Vergleich zum weichen Material des Leiters härteren, elektrisch leitfähigen Materials umspritzt ist. Die elektrische Kontaktierung zu einem Kontaktelement erfolgt über das aufgespritzte Material.The object is achieved by an electrical contact connection with the features of claim 1. Thereafter, it is provided that an electrical conductor of a soft, prone to cold flow material in its contact region at least partially by means of a spraying process with a compared to the soft material of the conductor harder, electrically conductive material is encapsulated. The electrical contact with a contact element via the sprayed material.
Das Aufspritzen eines härteren Materials auf den elektrischen Leiter hat den entscheidenden Vorteil, dass durch das Spritzverfahren eine innige und druckfreie Verbindung zwischen dem weichen Material des Leiters und dem härteren aufgespritzten Material ausgebildet wird. Durch das Spritzverfahren lagern sich zumindest einige der aufgespritzten harten Partikel im oberflächennahen Bereich im oder auf dem weichen Material ab, so dass eine stoffschlüssige und damit dauerhafte Verbindung zwischen dem weichen und dem harten Material ausgebildet ist. Die elektrische Verbindung zum Kontaktelement erfolgt über das aufgespritzte harte Material, so dass hier eine Hart-Hartverbindung zwischen zwei nicht oder nur wenig zum Kaltfluss neigenden Materialien vorliegt. Die elektrische Kontaktierung des Leiters mit dem Kontaktelement erfolgt daher lediglich mittelbar über das aufgespritzte Material.The spraying of a harder material onto the electrical conductor has the decisive advantage that an intimate and pressure-free connection between the soft material of the conductor and the harder sprayed-on material is formed by the injection method. By spraying, at least some of the sprayed hard particles deposited in the near-surface region in or on the soft material, so that a cohesive and thus permanent connection between the soft and the hard material is formed. The electrical connection to the contact element via the sprayed hard material, so that there is a Hart-Hartverbindung between two not or only slightly prone to cold flow materials. The electrical contacting of the conductor with the contact element therefore takes place only indirectly via the sprayed-on material.
Als Spritzverfahren bietet sich insbesondere ein thermisches Spritzverfahren, wie das Heißgasspritzen oder vorzugsweise das Flammspritzen an. Alternativ hierzu kann das Material auch über ein kaltes Verfahren, z.B. mit dem sogenannten Kaltgasspritzen, aufgebracht werden. Bei diesem werden im Unterschied zu den thermischen Spritzverfahren die aufzupritzenden Partikel nicht auf- oder angeschmolzen. Für die angestrebte innige Verbindung und gute Haftung zwischen dem weichen Material und dem aufgespritzten Material ist entscheidend, dass durch thermische und/oder kinetische Energie der aufgespritzten Partikel diese im Weichmaterial dauerhaft verankert werden.In particular, a thermal spraying process, such as hot gas spraying or, preferably, flame spraying, is suitable as the spraying process. Alternatively, the material may also be conveyed via a cold process, e.g. be applied with the so-called cold gas spraying. In contrast to the thermal spraying process, the particles to be scrubbed are not melted or fused. For the desired intimate connection and good adhesion between the soft material and the sprayed-on material, it is crucial that thermal and / or kinetic energy of the sprayed-on particles permanently anchor them in the soft material.
Als elektrischer Leiter wird vorzugsweise ein Aluminiumleiter, insbesondere bestehend aus mehreren Einzelleitern oder Litzen, verwendet. Unter weichem Material werden hierbei insbesondere leitende Materialien aus den Elementen der dritten Reihe des Periodensystems verstanden, insbesondere Aluminium, Aluminiumlegierungen oder Magnesiumlegierungen. Unter hartem Material werden insbesondere leitende Materialien aus Elementen der vierten Reihe des Periodensystems verstanden, beispielsweise Kupfer, Nickel, Eisen, Chrom und Legierungen hierzu, insbesondere Chrom-Nickel-Legierungen.The electrical conductor used is preferably an aluminum conductor, in particular consisting of a plurality of individual conductors or strands. Soft material is to be understood here in particular as conducting materials from the elements of the third row of the Periodic Table, in particular aluminum, aluminum alloys or magnesium alloys. Hard material is understood to mean, in particular, conductive materials of elements of the fourth row of the periodic table, for example copper, nickel, iron, chromium and alloys for this purpose, in particular chromium-nickel alloys.
Gemäß einer zweckdienlichen Ausgestaltung ist der Leiter im Kontaktbereich voll umfänglich von einem nach Art einer Röhre ausgebildeten Mantel aus dem härteren Material umgeben. Die Röhre ist hierbei insbesondere als Hartmetallröhre ausgebildet und weist eine hohe Eigensteifigkeit und Formstabilität auf, so dass sie eine hohe mechanische Widerstandskraft hat. Zweckdienlicherweise ist hierbei die Röhre aus einer Nickel-Chrom-Nickel-Legierung gebildet, welche besonders gute elektrische und mechanische Eigenschaften aufweist.According to an expedient embodiment, the conductor in the contact region is completely surrounded by a jacket of the type of a tube made of the harder material. The tube is in this case designed in particular as a hard metal tube and has a high inherent rigidity and dimensional stability, so that it has a high mechanical resistance. Conveniently, in this case, the tube is formed of a nickel-chromium-nickel alloy, which has particularly good electrical and mechanical properties.
Zweckdienlicherweise erfolgt die Kontaktverbindung zwischen dem aufgespritzten Material und dem Kontaktelement über eine mechanische Druck- oder Klemmverbindung. Die Kontaktverbindung wird dabei insbesondere über einen Klemm- oder Crimpkontakt ausgebildet. Da hier die Verbindung zwischen zwei harten Materialien erfolgt, besteht keine oder nur eine geringe Gefahr des Kaltfließens, so dass selbst bei einer druckbehafteten mechanischen Verbindung eine dauerhaft sichere elektrische Kontaktierung gewährleistet ist. Insbesondere in Verbindung mit dem formstabilen und eigensteifen nach Art einer Röhre ausgebildeten Mantel ist eine sichere Kontaktierung gewährleistet.Conveniently, the contact connection between the sprayed material and the contact element via a mechanical pressure or clamping connection. The contact connection is formed in particular via a clamping or crimp contact. Since there is the connection between two hard materials, there is little or no risk of cold flow, so that even with a pressure-sensitive mechanical connection a permanently secure electrical contact is ensured. In particular, in connection with the dimensionally stable and intrinsically stiff designed in the manner of a tube jacket secure contact is guaranteed.
Zweckdienlicherweise weist der Leiter endseitig eine im Vergleich zur Leiter-Querschnittsfläche vergrößerte Kontakt-Querschnittsfläche auf, auf die das leitfähige Material aufgespritzt ist. Der Leiter ist hierzu endseitig bevorzugt abgeschrägt. Die Stirnendseite des Leiters wird daher mit dem leitfähigen Material umspritzt, welches vorzugsweise eine Art Stirnkappe ausbildet. Durch die Vergrößerung der Kontakt-Querschnittsfläche im Vergleich zu der normalen Querschnittsfläche wird eine möglichst große effektive Kontaktfläche für den Stromtransport erzielt.Conveniently, the conductor has at its end an enlarged cross-sectional area of contact compared to the conductor cross-sectional area, onto which the conductive material is sprayed. The conductor is preferably bevelled end side. The front end of the conductor is therefore encapsulated with the conductive material, which preferably forms a kind of end cap. By increasing the contact cross-sectional area compared to the normal cross-sectional area, the largest possible effective contact area for the current transport is achieved.
Dies ist insbesondere in Gleichstrom-Anwendungen oder in Anwendungen mit Wechselstrom mit niedriger Frequenz von besonderem Vorteil, da in diesen Fällen der so genannte Skin-Effekt nicht oder nur kaum auftritt und ein Stromtransport über die gesamte Leiter-Querschnittsfläche erfolgt. Eine Kontaktverbindung, die nicht die gesamte Querschnittsfläche des Leiters mit einbezieht würde zu einem sehr hohen Kontaktwiderstand führen. Im Unterschied hierzu erfolgt der Stromtransport insbesondere bei hochfrequenten Wechselströmen nur im oberflächennahen Außenbereich, der "Außenhaut" (Skin) des Leiters, so dass der Leiterkern zum Stromtransport nicht beiträgt. Da beim Aufspritzen des Materials nicht zwangsläufig eine 100%ige flächige Verbindung zwischen dem weichen Material und dem aufgespritzten harten Material ausgebildet wird, wird durch die Vergrößerung der Kontakt-Querschnittsfläche die effektive Kontaktfläche, also die Fläche, bei der ein tatsächlicher Kontakt zwischen dem aufgespritzten Material und dem weichen Material vorliegt, erhöht und beträgt beispielsweise 100% der normalen Leiter-Querschnittsfläche. Damit ist der Kontaktwiderstand möglichst gering gehalten. Unter normaler Leiter-Querschnittsfläche wird hierbei die Querschnittsfläche verstanden, die gebildet ist durch einen senkrechten Schnitt zur Leiter-Längsausbreitung.This is particularly advantageous in DC applications or in applications with alternating current at low frequency, since in these cases the so-called skin effect does not occur or hardly occurs and a current is transported over the entire conductor cross-sectional area. A contact connection that does not involve the entire cross-sectional area of the conductor would result in a very high contact resistance. In contrast to this, current transport takes place only near the surface, especially in the case of high-frequency alternating currents Exterior, the "skin" of the ladder, so that the ladder core does not contribute to power transport. Since the injection molding of the material is not necessarily a 100% areal connection between the soft material and the sprayed hard material is formed by increasing the contact cross-sectional area of the effective contact surface, ie the area at which an actual contact between the sprayed material and the soft material, for example, increases and amounts to 100% of the normal conductor cross-sectional area. Thus, the contact resistance is kept as low as possible. Under normal conductor cross-sectional area is understood here as the cross-sectional area, which is formed by a vertical section to the conductor longitudinal propagation.
Die Vergrößerung der Kontakt-Querschnittsfläche durch die Anschrägung ist insbesondere bei einem Leiter mit einer großen Querschnittsfläche und/oder einem aus mehreren Litzendrähten bestehenden Leiter von besonderem Vorteil.The enlargement of the contact cross-sectional area by the chamfer is particularly advantageous in the case of a conductor with a large cross-sectional area and / or a conductor consisting of several stranded wires.
Die Erhöhung der Kontakt-Querschnittsfläche ist prinzipiell auch bei anderen Kontaktierungsarten von Vorteil, beispielsweise bei einer Kontaktierung mit einem Leitkleber, bei einer Kontaktierung mit einem elastischen, leitfähigen Material, das gegen den Leiter gepresst wird oder bei Lötverbindungen.The increase in the contact cross-sectional area is in principle also advantageous for other types of contacting, for example when contacting with a conductive adhesive, when contacting with an elastic, conductive material which is pressed against the conductor or in the case of soldered connections.
Zweckdienlicherweise ist der Leiter ein Aluminium-Batteriekabel, insbesondere für ein Kraftfahrzeug, und das Kontaktelement ist eine Batterieklemme. Im Kraftfahrzeugbereich werden nämlich zum Zwecke der Gewichtseinsparung zunehmend Leiter aus Aluminium eingesetzt. Insbesondere beim Batteriekabel, welches aufgrund der hohen Ströme einen sehr großen Querschnitt aufweist und daher bei der Verwendung beispielsweise von Kupfer ein sehr hohes Gewicht hat, ist durch die Verwendung eines Aluminiumkabels eine relativ hohe Gewichtseinsparung ermöglicht. Durch die hier beschriebene elektrische Kontaktverbindung zwischen einem solchen Aluminium-Batteriekabel und der Batterieklemme ist ein sicherer und dauerhafter Anschluss des Aluminiumkabels an die Batterie gewährleistet.Conveniently, the conductor is an aluminum battery cable, especially for a motor vehicle, and the contact element is a battery terminal. In the field of motor vehicles, ladders made of aluminum are increasingly used for the purpose of saving weight. In particular, the battery cable, which has a very large cross section due to the high currents and therefore has a very high weight when using, for example, copper, a relatively high weight saving is made possible by the use of an aluminum cable. The electrical contact connection described here between such an aluminum battery cable and the battery terminal ensures a secure and permanent connection of the aluminum cable to the battery.
Die Aufgabe wird gemäß der Erfindung weiterhin gelöst durch ein Verfahren mit den Merkmalen des Patentanspruchs 8. Die im Hinblick auf die elektrische Kontaktverbindung angeführten bevorzugten Weiterbildungen sowie Vorteile sind sinngemäß auch auf das Verfahren zu übertragen.The object is further achieved according to the invention by a method having the features of claim 8. The in terms of electrical Contact compound cited preferred developments and advantages are to be transferred analogously to the process.
Zweckdienlicherweise ist das insbesondere thermische Spritzverfahren hierbei derart gewählt und sind die Spritzparameter derart eingestellt, dass das leitfähige Material in den Leiter zumindest teilweise eindringt und eine eventuell auf der Leiteroberfläche vorhandene Oxidschicht zumindest teilweise durchdringt. Insbesondere bei der Kontaktierung eines Aluminiumleiters besteht nämlich generell das Problem, dass dieser eine isolierende Oxidhaut aufweist, die bei einer normalen Klemmverbindung zu einem sehr hohen Kontaktwiderstand führen würde. Durch das Eindringen in den Leiter und der damit verbundenen stofflichen Verbindung zwischen dem weichen und dem harten Material beeinflusst die Aluminium-Oxidschicht den Kontaktwiderstand nicht oder nur kaum. Unter stofflicher Verbindung wird hierbei die Einlagerung von hartem Material in das weiche Material des Leiters verstanden, so dass die harten Partikel vom weichen Material teilweise umschlossen sind.Conveniently, the particular thermal spraying method is chosen in this case and the spraying parameters are adjusted such that the conductive material at least partially penetrates into the conductor and at least partially penetrates an oxide layer possibly present on the conductor surface. In particular, when contacting an aluminum conductor, there is generally the problem that it has an insulating oxide skin, which would lead to a very high contact resistance in a normal clamping connection. Due to the penetration into the conductor and the associated material connection between the soft and the hard material, the aluminum oxide layer does not or hardly influences the contact resistance. Under material connection in this case the incorporation of hard material in the soft material of the conductor is understood, so that the hard particles are partially enclosed by the soft material.
Zweckdienlicherweise wird zur Ausbildung der elektrischen Kontaktverbindung der Leiter mit dem leitfähigen Material umspritzt und zugleich wird die elektrische Kontaktverbindung zwischen dem leitfähigen Material und dem Kontaktelement ausgebildet. Die Ausbildung der elektrischen Kontaktverbindung erfolgt daher in einem einstufigen Vorgang lediglich durch das Aufspritzen des leitfähigen Materials, welches zugleich den Leiter als auch das Kontaktelement zumindest teilweise überdeckt.Conveniently, to form the electrical contact connection, the conductor is overmolded with the conductive material and at the same time the electrical contact connection between the conductive material and the contact element is formed. The formation of the electrical contact connection is therefore in a one-step process only by the spraying of the conductive material, which at least partially covers the conductor and the contact element at the same time.
Alternativ hierzu ist gemäß einer bevorzugten Ausgestaltung ein zweistufiges Vorgehen vorgesehen, wobei in einem ersten Schritt das leitfähige Material auf den Kontaktbereich des Leiters aufgespritzt und in einem zweiten Schritt die Kontaktierung mit dem Kontaktelement insbesondere durch eine mechanische Klemm- oder Druckverbindung vorgenommen wird. Zweckdienlicherweise wird hierbei durch mehrfaches Umspritzen des Kontaktbereiches der insbesondere als Hartmetallröhre ausgebildete Mantel aus dem leitfähigen Material aufgebaut.Alternatively, according to a preferred embodiment, a two-stage procedure is provided, wherein in a first step, the conductive material is sprayed onto the contact region of the conductor and in a second step, the contact with the contact element is made in particular by a mechanical clamping or pressure connection. Conveniently, in this case is formed by multiple overmolding of the contact region of the formed in particular as a hard metal tube sheath of the conductive material.

In
Endseitig ist der Leiter 2 in einem Kontaktbereich 6 von einem nach Art einer Stirnkappe ausgebildeten Mantel 8A aus einem im Vergleich zum Aluminium härteren Material umgeben.At the end, the conductor 2 is surrounded in a
Der Mantel 8A ist mit Hilfe eines thermischen Spritzverfahrens, beispielsweise dem Heißgasspritzen oder dem so genannten Flammspritzen, aufgebracht. Durch das Aufspritzen des härteren Materials auf das weiche Material des Leiters 2 wird zwischen diesen beiden Materialien eine sichere, dauerhafte und insbesondere druckfreie Verbindung hergestellt, so dass keine Gefahr besteht, dass die Verbindung durch ein Kaltfließen des Materials des Leiters 2 beeinträchtigt wird.The jacket 8A is applied by means of a thermal spraying method, for example hot gas spraying or so-called flame spraying. By spraying the harder material on the soft material of the conductor 2, a secure, durable and in particular pressure-free connection is made between these two materials, so that there is no danger that the compound is affected by cold flow of the material of the conductor 2.
Als Material für den Mantel 8A wird insbesondere eine Nickel-Chrom-Nickel-Legierung gewählt. Der Mantel 8A ist dabei durch mehrfaches Überspritzen mit einer ausreichend hohen Wandstärke ausgebildet derart, dass der Mantel 8A insgesamt eine hohe Eigensteifigkeit und damit Formstabilität aufweist. Der Mantel 8A ist daher nach Art einer steifen Röhre ausgebildet.As the material for the jacket 8A, in particular, a nickel-chromium-nickel alloy is selected. The jacket 8A is formed by multiple over-molding with a sufficiently high wall thickness such that the jacket 8A overall has a high intrinsic rigidity and thus dimensional stability. The jacket 8A is therefore formed in the manner of a stiff tube.
Der Leiter 2 ist endseitig schräg angeschnitten, so dass im stirnseitigen Bereich eine ebene, in etwa ellipsenförmige Kontakt-Querschnittsfläche 10 ausgebildet ist. Diese weist im Vergleich zu der normalen, im Falle eines kreisrunden Leiters kreisrunden Leiter-Querschnittsfläche 12 eine vergrößerte Fläche auf. Durch die Vergrößerung der Kontakt-Querschnittsfläche 10 wird insbesondere bei Anwendungen, bei denen kein Skin-Effekt auftritt, beispielsweise bei Gleichstromanwendungen, ein nur geringer Kontaktwiderstand erreicht.The conductor 2 is obliquely cut at the end, so that in the frontal region a flat, approximately elliptical contact

Das Kontaktelement 24 ist hier beispielsweise nach Art einer Crimphülse ausgebildet, die zusätzlich, also anschließend nach dem Aufspritzen des Mantels 8B, noch umgeformt wird, um auch eine mechanische Befestigung des Mantels 8B zu erreichen.The
Gemäß einer bevorzugten alternativen Ausgestaltung ist zur zusätzlichen mechanischen Befestigung ein mechanisches Befestigungselement vorgesehen, welches den Mantel 8B gegen das Kontaktelement 24 verspannt. Dieses Befestigungselement ist beispielsweise eine Schraube, die in ein zugeordnetes, mit einem Gewinde versehenen Schraubenloch im Boden des Kontaktelements 24 eingeschraubt wird. Die Einzelleiter 4 würden in diesem Fall um die zentral angeordnete Schraube herum verlaufen. Alternativ hierzu besteht die Möglichkeit, eine zentrale Hülse vorzusehen, die mit dem Boden des Kontaktelements 24 verbunden ist und die beispielsweise eine Außengewinde aufweist, auf das eine Mutter zur klemmenden Befestigung aufgeschraubt wird. Zweckdienlicherweise sind hierbei die Kontaktelemente 24 derart ausgebildet, dass sie übereinander angeordnet und gestapelt werden können, so dass sich mehrere Anschlussebenen ergeben. Hierzu wird beispielsweise ein erstes Kontaktelement 24 mit einer bodenseitigen Öffnung auf die erwähnte Hülse eines weiteren Kontaktelements aufgesteckt oder aufgeschraubt.According to a preferred alternative embodiment, a mechanical fastening element is provided for additional mechanical fastening, which braces the
Weiterhin ist zweckdienlicherweise vorgesehen, dass die Gesamthöhe des Kontaktelements 24 mit den Einzelleitern 4 und dem Mantel 8B eine vordefinierte maximale Gesamthöhe nicht überschreiten, um das Kontaktelement mit den kontaktierten Einzelleitern beispielsweise in eine vordefinierte Flachhülse einstecken zu können. Die maximale Gesamthöhe wird beispielsweise durch die Höhe des im Querschnitt gesehen wannenartigen Kontaktelements 24 bestimmt.Furthermore, it is expediently provided that the total height of the
