A method of manufacturing a contact element for modelling electrical circuits, in which a sheet metal blank is stamped to obtain a hollow formed workpiece (1) having an inner hollow body (2) with a bottom (3), a shoulder (4), a support platform (5) for connecting wire, said support platform having sides (7) and (8), wherein an electroplated metal coating is applied onto the hollow formed workpiece (1), said hollow formed workpiece (1) is placed in an injection mold, an outer casing (9) is formed by filling the mold with a polymer material under pressure creating the outer casing (9) on the outside of the hollow body (2), and a permanent magnet (10) is pressed into the hollow (11) of the body (2).

A method for assembling an angled plug connector with a plug connector housing, which has a through channel preferably angled at a right angle in order to receive conductor components extending at an angle relative to one another, wherein a first conductor component introduced from one side (X) into the through channel in the interior of the through channel is connected by non-positive and/or by positive engagement to a second conductor component introduced from the other side (Y) into the through channel. Additionally, an assembly unit for carrying out the method is presented.

A tool device is disclosed for generating a curved terminal from an insulation stripped end of an electrical wire. The tool device includes a first member having a first and a second end the first member having a longitudinal axis. A second member is disposed adjacent to the first member, the second member having a first and a second extremity. The second member defines a further longitudinal axis which is disposed substantially parallel to and spaced from the longitudinal axis of the first member. The arrangement is such that a space is defined between the first member and the second member for the reception therein of the insulation stripped end of the electrical wire. The curved terminal is generated during relative movement of the axes around the insulation stripped end of the electrical wire.

A conductor connection contact element for clamping an electrical conductor having at least one resilient force clamping connection. At least one first SMD-solder contact is arranged on an assembly face of the conductor connection contact element and configured for soldering to a contact surface. A conductor inserting region is formed by a sheet metal part of the conductor connection contact element. At least one conductor guiding base is oriented so as to form a guiding surface for the electrical conductor that is to be inserted. A material portion of the sheet metal part is adapted to be bent over at least one curved region to form a first SMD-solder contact and a region of the conductor guiding base that is oriented in an oblique manner with respect to the conductor inserting direction is adjacent to the at least one curved region.

A connector includes wire-side terminals having the same shape and an insulation housing (30) for holding these terminals. The insulation housing (30) has terminal accommodating chambers (C11, . . . ), and terminal locking portions are provided in the respective terminal accommodating chambers (C11, . . . ). The terminal locking portions are classified into a first group that have a high holding force and a second group that have a low holding force. At least the terminal locking portions in the terminal accommodating chambers (C11, C18, C31, C38) located on both outer sides in a maximum diameter direction belong to the first group and at least the terminal locking portions provided in the terminal accommodating chambers (C24, C25) closest to a center (O) of the array of the terminal accommodating chambers belong to the second group.
