Abstract
The described examples may relate to a connection device for electrically conductively connecting a stator and a pulse inverter of an electric motor. The connection device includes at least one clamping piece pair with two clamping pieces, which are movable in relation to each other along a clamping direction between a closed and an open position and formed to clamp a stator-side line end with a pulse inverter-side line end between the two clamping pieces in the closed position such that an electrically conductive connection of the line ends is established. The connection device may include a bolt mounted rotatably around a rotational axis extending obliquely with respect to the clamping direction, which includes at least one eccentric portion along its longitudinal extension direction, which is formed to convert a rotational movement of the bolt around the rotational axis into a translational movement of the two clamping pieces of the at least one clamping piece pair to each other until reaching the closed position.
