Classification: CPC H | IPC H

Claim 0:
1. An interface for electrically contacting a printed circuit board which is accommodated in a housing, wherein the interface by a first and a second interface is configured as a double-sided interface, having the following features:
the first interface has at least one first contact element configured to be brought to electrically contact at least one first terminal of the printed circuit board;
the second interface has at least one second contact element;
the second interface is configured so as to correspond with the first interface and disposed in a locationally fixed manner on an opening of the housing in such a manner that the first and the second contact element are brought into contact with one another, and
the second contact element provides a second terminal which is configured to be contacted from outside the housing, wherein plug-in and/or extraction forces acting on the terminal are absorbed by the second interface and/or the housing,
wherein the second interface is provided by a second insulating member which is configured in a form-fitting manner with the opening of the housing, and in which the second contact element is configured so as to be locationally fixed in such a manner that one end of the second contact element extends into the interior of the housing, and one end of the second contact element is configured to provide the terminal which is accessible from outside the housing; and wherein
the second insulating member is configured in such a manner and/or is configured to be disposed on the housing in such a manner and/or configured to have an internal contour which in a form-fitting manner can interact with a contour of the second contact element in such a manner that plug-in and/or extraction forces acting on the accessible terminal are absorbed by the second insulating member and/or the housing.
