A contact element () for establishing electric contact between two contact pieces (K, K) comprises a support strip () extending in a longitudinal direction (L) as well as a plurality of contact parts (), each of which has a first contact section () for contacting one of the two contact pieces (K, K), a second contact section () for contacting the other one of the two contact pieces (K, K), and a fastening section () for securing the contact part () to the support strip ().

Electrical contact element comprising a carrier strip and a plurality of contact parts

A contact element () for establishing electric contact between two contact pieces (K, K) comprises a support strip (), which extends in a longitudinal direction (L) and is designed in such a way that the length of the support strip () changes in the longitudinal direction (L) when a force (F) is applied to the support strip (), as well as a plurality of contact parts (), each of which has a first contact section () for contacting one of the two contact pieces (K, K), a second contact section () for contacting the other one of the two contact pieces (K, K), and a fastening section () for securing the contact part () to the support strip ().

Contact element

A contact element () for establishing electric contact between two contact pieces comprises a support grip () extending in a longitudinal direction (L) as well as a plurality of contact parts (), each of which has a first contact section () for contacting one of the two contact pieces (K, K), a second contact section () for contacting the other one of the two contact pieces (K, K), and a fastening section () for securing the contact part () to the support strip () at a fastening point (). Each contact part () comprises at least one plastically deformable connection element () for securing the contact part () to the support strip (). The at least one connection element () forms an integral part of the contact part ().
