Connector assemblies that may be used to connect a cable to one or more contact tails of an electrical connector are disclosed. Some connector assemblies may include a wire extending from a cable and attached to an edge of a contact tail of a signal conductor. At least a portion of the wire may be flattened to form a planar surface that is attached to a corresponding planar surface of the edge of the contact tail. Moreover, some connector assemblies may include a wire extending from a cable that is attached to an edge of a contact tail via a metallurgical bond extending along at least a portion of an attachment interface between the wire and the contact tail.

In an example, an electrical plug may include an electrical conductor and a plug body. Further, the electrical plug may include a connector disposed within the plug body. The connector may include a contact portion and a cable portion disposed alongside the contact portion. The cable portion may be attached to the electrical conductor.

An electrical contact includes: a first end; a second end; and a solder cup section formed at the first end. The solder cup section conductively connects to an electric component including a wire, by soldering. The solder cup section has a circumferential wall region with an upper edge defining a solder cup opening at the first end, and a solder cup base, which is arranged opposite the solder cup opening and which defines a base of the solder cup section. The electrical contact is stamped and formed from a metal sheet.

The disclosure sets out a method for producing an electrical line arrangement by integrally joining a free end of an electrical conductor to a metal component. The method includes reshaping a section of the metal component to form a receiving sleeve, inserting the conductor into the receiving sleeve, attaching a friction welding tool to the receiving sleeve, and moving the friction welding tool relative to the metal component and/or the conductor for generating welding energy for at least partially melting a portion facing the conductor, e.g. an inner wall, the metal component and/or the conductor.

Provided are a coil device that considerably reduces the man-hours and the cost for manufacturing, and a motor-driven valve and a solenoid valve including such a coil device. The terminal end of the magnet wire is fixed to a conducting terminal by swaging and/or fusing at a distal-end binding part for binding the terminal end of the magnet wire.

The first electrical connection assembly (8) is arranged in a first installation space which is formed on the main body (1) in the region of a lateral face and has a first mounting opening toward said lateral face, and the second electrical connection assembly (9) is arranged in a second installation space (10b) which is formed on the main body (1) in the region of an opposite lateral face and has a second mounting opening (19b) toward said lateral face, the second installation space being separated front the first installation space.

A power distribution unit including an elongate housing and a power input penetrating said elongate housing. The power input can comprise a ground buss wire, a neutral buss wire and at least one line buss wire. A plurality of electrical outlets can be disposed along the housing. Each electrical outlet can comprise a receptacle and a plurality of spaced apart outlet pins protruding from the receptacle. The plurality of outlet pins can include a ground outlet pin receiving the ground buss wire, a neutral outlet pin receiving the neutral buss wire, and a line outlet pin receiving the line buss wire.

A conductor joint (1) is provided for connecting two conductors along a longitudinal direction. The conductor joint comprises a first segment having a first segment end (202) adapted connecting to an end portion of a first conductor and a second segment (300) comprising a second segment end (302) relative to the longitudinal direction adapted for receiving a second conductor end of a second conductor. The second segment further has an opposite second segment end (304) fixed, or forming an integral part with, an opposite first segment end (204) of the first segment (200), a tubular sleeve (310) and a core rod (320) wherein ends (310a, 320a) of the tubular sleeve (310) and the core rod (320) are arranged with a radial offset forming a sleeve opening for receiving at the end portion of the second conductor end of the second conductor.

A busbar is placed on an anvil, and a core wire of a cable is placed on the busbar. While the core wire is pressed onto the busbar using a horn chip, ultrasonic vibration is given to the core wire to join the core wire to the busbar. The horn chip has two flat portions and a recessed portion located between the flat portions. When the core wire is pressed onto the busbar using the horn chip, each of the flat portions and the busbar sandwich a part of the core wire therebetween while the recessed portion and the busbar put a remaining part of the core wire therebetween. Each of the sandwiched parts of the core wire does not reach an outer end of the corresponding flat portion to leave a space between the corresponding flat portion and the busbar.
