Patent ID: 7091419

Claim:
An electrical plug connector, comprising: at least two contact partners which can be linked together in an overlap region to establish an electrical contact between said two contact partners; at least one of two contact partners including an electrically conductive material, which material converts to a liquid aggregation state at a predetermined temperature threshold; said material when converted to said liquid aggregation state is guided at least proportionately into said overlap region between said two contact partners to ensure said electrical contact between said two contact partners; said contact partners including said electrically conductive material, further including a channel which substantially forms a capillary between said contact partners when linked together to guide said electrically conductive material in said liquid aggregation state into said overlap region; said channel including at least a pair of capillary channels which terminate in a star-like formation in said overlap region and substantially form capillaries between said contact partners when linked together; and said capillary channels formed by a recess in one of said contact partners with a wall of the other one of said contact partners covering said recess to form said channel.
