Abstract:
A contact element ( 1 ) for establishing electric contact between two contact pieces comprises a support grip ( 2 ) extending in a longitudinal direction (L) as well as a plurality of contact parts ( 5,5 a,  5 b ), each of which has a first contact section ( 6 ) for contacting one of the two contact pieces (K 1 , K 2 ), a second contact section ( 7 ) for contacting the other one of the two contact pieces (K 2 , K 1 ), and a fastening section ( 8 ) for securing the contact part ( 5, 5 a,  5 b ) to the support strip ( 2 ) at a fastening point ( 3 ). Each contact part ( 5, 5 a,  5 b ) comprises at least one plastically deformable connection element ( 50 ) for securing the contact part ( 5, 5 a  5 b ) to the support strip ( 2 ). The at least one connection element ( 50 ) forms an integral part of the contact part ( 5, 5 a,  5 b ).

Claim (Index 39):
A contact element for establishing an electrical contact between two contact pieces, comprising\n a carrier strip that extends in a longitudinal direction and a plurality of contact parts each having at least one first contact section for making contact with one of the two contact pieces, at least one second contact section for making contact with the other of the two contact pieces, and also having at least one fastening section for fastening the contact part at a fastening spot at the carrier strip, wherein each contact part comprises at least one plastically deformable connecting element for fastening the contact part to the carrier strip, wherein the at least one connecting element is fixedly arranged at the contact part before the plastic forming and before the connection to the carrier strip, and wherein the at least one connecting element has a shaft that protrudes away from the fastening section and that is guided through a fastening opening in the carrier strip, wherein the shaft is plastically deformed in a forming process in such a way that the shaft forms a mechanically fixed connection, in particular a force-fitting connection and/or an interlocking connection, with the carrier strip.
