A printed circuit board includes at least two rigid printed circuit board parts which are connected to one another by at least one flexible connecting part which is thinner than the rigid printed circuit board parts. The at least two rigid printed circuit board parts can be moved toward one another by bending the flexible connecting part. A groove, which is produced by the different thickness of the rigid printed circuit board parts relative to the flexible connecting part, is filled with an elastic material.

A contact area is provided on a carrier for connection to a mating contact area on a further carrier using an adhesive containing conductive particles. The contact area includes at least one recess forming a drain channel for the adhesive, extending from one edge of the contact area to an opposing edge and having a width being less than an average diameter of the particles. Alternatively, the contact area includes boreholes extending from a main surface to an opposing main surface and having diameters being approximately equal to or smaller than the average diameter of the particles in at least one direction and a cavity is formed in the carrier beneath the contact area. Alternatively, integral moldings forming a turf structure are provided on the contact area and distances between the moldings are equal to or smaller than the average diameter of the particles in at least one direction.

Contact surface arranged on a carrier for connecting to a counter contact surface arranged on a further carrier, and device comprising a contact surface and a counter contact surface connected thereto

An energy storage system includes an electric component, a solvent, and a protective device which chemically binds the decomposition products of the solvent. Any damage to the surroundings, which could be caused by the decomposition products of the solvent, can be prevented using the novel energy storage system.
