Abstract:
The electrical contact (200) comprises a contact part (212) exhibiting a surface (228, 230) intended to be in contact with the surface of a support, and a clip (202) intended to receive a pin of an electrical component, so that the pin received lies along a main axis parallel to an up/down direction. The clip (202) comprises at least two jaws (204, 206, 208, 210) around the axis A, which are intended to grip the pin laterally, each jaw (204, 206, 208, 210) exhibiting a fixed end and a free end, and the contact surface is formed by at least one flange (228, 230) intended to come to bear on said surface of the support.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to a thermo/electrical conductor arrangement for multilayer printed circuit boards (PCBs). Using vias for the transport of heat from the interior of the PCB and for conducting high currents between the conducting layers have limitations. Via platings are very thin and vias filled with solder is an unreliable method as there is always a risk that the vias are not properly filled during the soldering process. The present invention overcomes this by inserting a pin of a current conductive material (such as copper) into the via so that the pin is brought into galvanic contact with the conducting layers in the PCB and where at least one end of the pin is freely protruding from the PCB thereby allowing the pin to conduct heat from the interior of the PCB to the protruding end of the pin for external cooling.

A connector assembly includes a female connector and a mal connector. The female connector includes a first main body and a number of slots defined in the first main body, and each slot receives a conductive terminal therein. First and second row conductive terminals are arranged along an opposite direction. A number of cables are attached to the first main body and electrically connected to the conductive terminals. A male connector includes a second main body and a number of conductive pins extend through the second main body. Third row conductive pins are corresponding to the first row conductive terminals. Fourth row conductive pins are corresponding to the second row conductive terminals. The connector assembly can transmit signals normally whatever the male connector is plugged to the female connector.

Abstract:
A system for communicating between multiple electrical components includes a first printed circuit board (PCB) having first and second opposed layers and a plurality of plated through-holes extending between the first and second opposed layers. The system also includes a plurality of mating contacts, wherein each of the plurality of mating contacts is retained within one of the plurality of plated through-holes. Each of the plurality of mating contacts may include a first end portion that outwardly extends from the first layer, and a second end portion that outwardly extends from the second layer. The system may also include a first connector assembly having a plurality of interconnecting contacts retained therein. The plurality of interconnecting contacts mate with the first end portions of the plurality of mating contacts when the first connector assembly connects to the first PCB.
Abstract:
A printed circuit board (PCB) assembly for a control device has a multi-layered PCB and a plug component. The PCB has a main section, a connection section, and a curved connecting section arranged between the main section and the connection section and connects the latter such that a main plane of extent of the main section runs at an incline to a main plane of extent of the connection section.
