Abstract:
A connector is disclosed comprising at least one contact clip. The contact clip comprises an electrically conductive substrate having a longitudinal axis, a first terminal located at a first end of the substrate, wherein the first terminal comprises at least two contact tongues between which a longitudinal slot is formed, which contact tongues are elastically deformable with respect to each other in a first direction which is perpendicular to the longitudinal axis, and a second terminal located at a second end of the substrate. The connector may further comprise a chassis and a PCB. In addition, a device comprising an energy consumer, an electrical energy source, a PCB and at least one connector is disclosed.

Claim (Index 17):
Assembly method for a connector, according to  claim 6 , comprising the steps of:\n providing a chassis, an at least one contact clip and a PCB, preassembling the chassis and the at least one contact clip by inserting the first terminal of the at least one contact clip into a slot of a at least one male plug of the chassis such that at least two contact tongues of the first terminal laterally protrude from the at least one male plug in a first direction, releasably attaching the PCB on a first area of the chassis by inserting at least one slotted male plug into a plated-through opening of the PCB, wherein an elastic clamping force is generated between the PCB and the at least one contact clip by elastic deformation of the at least two contact tongues of the first terminal in the first direction, optionally attaching at least one electronic component to the chassis.
