Definitions

  • the invention relates to an electrical press-fit contact element having at least one press-in portion which extends in a direction of extension from a root portion in which the press-in portion is connected to a contact body to a free end, and which has a central zone, the double-sided from the root portion to the free end flanked by a respective edge zone, wherein the edge zones form technological contact surfaces, which abut after insertion of the press-in in a press-in opening, for example, a circuit board to the wall of the press-in.
  • a press-fit contact element is made of DE 198 31 672 B4 previously known.
  • the press-fit contact element disclosed therein has a press-fit section which is connected to a contact body.
  • the contact body has a contact element.
  • the press-in portion is pin-shaped and can pass into conductive connecting resiliently biased contact with the inner wall of a hole forming a press-fit opening of a printed circuit board.
  • the application of the force to push the press-in section into the plated-through hole of the printed circuit board is effected by an axial application to a press-in shoulder, which is formed by the contact body.
  • the bulbous or oblique shape of the contact used in the prior art until reaching its largest outer diameter has proven to be advantageous for achieving the lowest possible Eindgur expert.
  • Such press-fit contacts are used for the production of solderless electrical connections according to DIN EN 60352-5 and are in Formed longitudinally from the press-in end with an integrally connected plug, connection area or stamped grid.
  • the press-in portion is designed to be elastic, and presses with relatively little force on the hole wall.
  • a relatively low normal force of the voltage applied to the hole wall legs of the press-in sections is desirable.
  • the required squeezing force of the press-in sections from the PCB holes must be relatively high.
  • this quality-important requirement is not attainable with small material thicknesses of the press-fit contact formed by press-in sections, in particular if the normal force of the legs of the press-fit contacts is low.
  • a low squeezing force or holding force is also at vibration stresses, such as occur in automotive applications in the engine compartment, disadvantageous because the contacts can loosen, thereby increasing the contact resistance. Such damage can lead to total failure of the electrical connection.
  • press-in contacts are connected in a uniform manner with continuous areas. These can be designed as socket contacts for round or flat plugs, crimp connections, insulation displacement connections, film connections or stamped grid, etc.
  • Such applications require resilient, resilient properties to allow proper contact with the mating connector or connector. Therefore, the material thickness is usually low, for example 0.3 mm. However, this thickness is sometimes insufficient to meet the above requirements for such press-fit contacts.
  • the desired high Current carrying capacity and the desired cold welding often can not be achieved. Therefore, in the prior art, such components are made of step-milled strip material.
  • the strip for example, has to be reduced 0.8 mm thick for the area of the press-in zone to 0.3 mm in the area of the subsequent contact areas. Since this process is usually carried out by milling, such bands are expensive.
  • press-fit contacts which are made of bright strip, provided in a further step with a galvanic surface. This consists because of the required cold welding with the through-connection of the circuit board and the lead refinery of pure tin.
  • galvanically pure tin-plated surfaces under pressure and bending stress which are produced in a press-fit connection are known to be susceptible to whisker formation. These whiskers are undesirable and can cause short circuits in the application.

  • the DE 20 2009 009 933 U1 discloses a slotted press-in section with embossments on both sides, so that webs form in a contact region.
  • the DE 20 2016 102 148 U1 discloses a press-fit portion consisting of two parallel legs.
