A contact device includes a contact housing and a contact element. The contact housing defines a contact receptacle and a latching receptacle opening into the contact receptacle. The contact element includes a contact body arranged within the contact receptacle and extending in a longitudinal direction and adapted to contact a mating contact of a mating contact device, and a latching spring connected to the contact body on a first end and extending along a spring axis into the latching receptacle. The latching spring has a stop inclining obliquely with respect to the spring axis and abutting a face of the latching receptacle and a recess formed through the latching spring at first distance from the stop face.

Contact device and method for producing the contact device

An electric terminal including a contact section having a locking lance locking the electric terminal in a connector housing of an electric connector and a transition section extending from the contact section and having a secondary latching with a secondary latching device latching the electric terminal in the connector housing. The locking lance is axially additionally secured in the contact section away from an attachment of the locking lance to the contact section and/or a plurality of side walls of the electric terminal are closed by a circumferential connection in the secondary latching device.

Electric terminal having secondary latching device

A measuring element for registering forces includes a first measuring arm extending in a longitudinal direction of the measuring element, a second measuring arm extending in the longitudinal direction, a deformation section connecting the first measuring arm and the second measuring arm to one another in an elastically deformable manner, and a transformer unit arranged on a first side or a second side of the deformation section. The first measuring arm and the second measuring arm can be deflected relative to one another in a direction perpendicular to the longitudinal direction. The transformer unit responds to deformation and is situated fully within the deformation section.
