Flexible electrical connectors are provided to electrically connect electronic devices. The flexible electrical connector includes a removable adhesive tape strip having an adhesive surface thereof and an electrically conductive trace disposed on the adhesive tape strip. The flexible electrical connector engages an electronic device to form an electrical contact where the adhesive tape strip has an adhesive surface removably adhesively bonded to the substrate of the electronic device to at least partially cover the electrical contact.

A method for joining a cable to a connector includes: providing an electrically conductive fusible conductor joining material which has a lower melting point than that of at least one inner conductor of the cable and/or at least one contact of the connector; bringing an end of the connector to an end of the cable such that at least one inner conductor of the cable and at least one contact of the connector are opposite one another and the fusible conductor joining material is present in between; and heating the cable and/or the connector from the outside such that the heat penetrates into an interior of the at least one heated cable or the connector so the fusible conductor joining material melts and electrically connects the at least one inner conductor of the cable and the contact of the connector to one another.

A method for joining a first cable to a second cable that each include at least one electrically conductive inner conductor, an outer sheath which at least partially surrounds the at least one inner conductor, and an insulation material which is arranged at least partially between the at least one inner conductor and the outer sheath. The method includes: bringing an end of each cable together such that at least one inner conductor of the cables are opposite one another and a fusible conductor joining material having a lower melting point than the at least one inner conductor is present in between; and heating at least one of the cables from the outside such that the heat penetrates into an interior of the at least one heated cable so the fusible conductor joining material melts and electrically connects the at least one inner conductor of the cables to one another.

A contact assembly includes a contact element having a lead-through opening, a contact section extending in a tube-shaped manner along the lead-through opening and having a contact surface, and a collar section connected to the contact section and extending the lead-through opening in a sleeve-shaped manner, a busbar having a reception opening receiving the collar section, and a fastener inserted into the lead-through opening. The contact element has a first friction surface affixable with the busbar in the reception opening in a frictionally engaging manner and a second friction surface affixable in the reception opening with the busbar or in the lead-through opening with the fastener in a frictionally engaging manner. The first friction surface and the second friction surface are mutually offset in a radial direction with respect to the lead-through opening.

A busbar includes: a plurality of members that are platy; and a welding area in which two of the members are welded, the welding area being linear and extending in a first direction, the welding area being provided approximately between both ends of at least one of the two members in the first direction.

A silver-plated product which has more excellent minute sliding abrasion resistance property than that of conventional silver-plated products, and a method for producing the same. The silver-plated product is produced by electroplating a base material 10 of copper or a copper alloy to form an underlying plating layer 12 of nickel or a nickel alloy, a first silver-plating layer of silver (lower silver-plating layer) 14, a zinc-plating layer 16 of zinc serving as an intermediate plating layer, and a second silver-plating layer of silver (upper silver-plating layer) 18 serving as a surface layer, in this order from the base material 10.

A conductive connecting member includes a first terminal, a second terminal, and a braided member for electrically connecting the first and second terminals. The braided member is a member formed by braiding a plurality of metal stands each other. The braided member includes a first fixing portion to be fixed and electrically connected to the first terminal, a second fixing portion to be fixed and electrically connected to the second terminal and an intermediate portion serving as a part of the braided member between the first and second fixing portions. The intermediate portion retains its own shape in a natural state where no external force is applied and is deformed to allow a relative movement of the second terminal with respect to the first terminal when an external force for relatively changing a position of the second terminal with respect to the first terminal is applied.
