Referring to the drawing, a silver-faced con- For a fuller understanding of the nature and fact i0 is illustrated in Figures 1 and -2 and the objects of the invention as well as for specific method of making the contact is illustrated in 0 fulfillment thereof, reference should be had to Figures 3 to 8. In this method a strip .of sheet the following detailed description taken in consteel II is run through a stamping machine or nection with the accompanying drawing in punch press wherein a series of annular grooves which: 12 are stamped in the strip. In the same opera Figure 1 is a face view of an electrical contact tion an indentation I3 is formed on the same 25 made according to the present invention; face with the annular groove and preferably Figure 2 is a section on the line 2-2 of Figconcentric therewith. A corresponding projecure 1; tion 14 is thereby provided on the opposite face Figure 3 is a face view of a steel blank us d in ofthe strip. A series of locating or centering fabricating contacts of the kind shown in Figholes i 5 is also punched in the strip in a line 30 ure 1; parallel to the line of centers of the annular Figure 4 is a section on the line H of Figgrooves, the centering holes being spaced apart ure 3; I by the same distances as the annular grooves.

While a preferred embodiment of the inv nti The steel strip ll, carrying pieces iii in con- 5 is described herein, it is contemplated th t tact, is then passed through a'furnace where siderable variation may be made in th m th d the assembly is heated to a temperature above of procedure and the construction of parts iththe melting point of the silver or silver alloy. ut. departing from th Spirit 0f t invention When the silver is in the molten condition it flows In the following description and in the clai out over the surface of steel strip H until it Parts will be identified by specific names fo reaches-the inner edge of groove l2, where the 50 convenience, but they are intended to be as is d, p a y a e the Surface generic in their application to similar pa t as tension of the molten silver is greater than the the art will permit. attraction of the silver for the steel at this point. An important use of the present invention is Should the silver flow over the inner edge of 56 in the production of steel-backed silver-faced the groove it will be stopped at the outer edge.
' the edges thereof.
There results a body of molten silver which solidifies, on removal from the furnace, into a solidlayer l'l adhering to the steel backing within the area bounded bythe annular groove, the silver layer having a convex circular face l8 (Fig. 6).
The convex face l'l may, in some instances, be suitable for use as a contact face without extra treatment. It is generally desirable, however, to insure perfect uniformityof dimensions and to obtain the exact radius of curvature desired, to coin the surface. This is accomplished, as indicated in Figure '7, by a pair of punches l9 and 20 held. in a suitable pressing arrangement. Punch l9 has a face shaped to receive the projection It on the back of the strip and punch 20 has a face 30 of the curvature necessary to apply the desired radius 21 to the silver face. In the coining operation the contact can be centered with respect to the punches by one or more locating pins 22 adapted to fit into holes I5.
The finished contacts are punched from strip II by a punch 23, having a face shaped to receive projection 14, in cooperation with a die 24. The punch 23 and die 24 have a diameter 26 slightly less than that of annular ring 12 so that some of the silver contact metal is drawn down around the sides of the punched disc to cover the edges as is apparent from Figure 2. In the punching operation locating pin 25 co-operates with hole I5 in the steel strip to center the contact in the die.
The finished contact I0 is thereby produced having a circular silver face with a curvature 2|, the silver face being integrally attached to a steel backing disc 21 and extending down over The steel disc 21 also has welding projection l4 whereby the contact can be electrically welded to a switch spring, circuit breaker armature, breaker arm, relay armature or any other metal part on which it is desired to provide contacts.
It will be obvious that other contact materials, in some instances, can be used in place of silver and other backing materials can be used in place of steel. Composite facings may also be formed. The metal in contact with the backing must, of course, be of lower melting point than the backing metal.
While the present invention, as to its objects and advantages, has been described herein as carried out in specific embodiments thereof, it is not desired to be limited thereby but it is intended to cover the invention broadly within the spirit and scope of the appended claims.
