Abstract
An electrical contact component for a contact socket of an implantable medical device includes an electrical contact element for electrically contacting an electrical counter contact (such as an electrode plug), and an electrically conductive outer ring having a plug borehole for receiving the electrical counter contact. The interior of the outer ring includes a depression receiving the electrical contact element. The electrical contact element is formed by contact bodies (such as balls or rolls), a cage element for receiving the contact bodies, and at least one electrically conductive spring element.
