Patent ID: 8853533

Claim:
A contact and connection arrangement based on film conductors inserted in a housing, wherein ends of the film conductors have a contact segment and at least partially overlap each other, wherein a conductive fleece material which is self-adhesive on both sides or is coated with a glue is situated between the contact segments which face each other, and this fleece material connects the ends of the film conductors mechanically and electrically, in that the housing is designed sectionally in the plane of the film conductors, wherein the housing parts form half shells, and wherein one of the housing half shells has pin-like projections, wherein the pin-like projections and the hollow cylindrical segments or projections are designed as substantially complementary and congruent, in order to allow parts of contact layers which are shaped by the pin-like projections to press into the complementary segments or projections without penetrating the same and lead to a deformation of the contact layer in such a manner that a reduction of an electric contact resistance of the connection results.
