A contact element assembly for a plug connector part which is connectable in a plug-fitting manner to a mating plug connector part includes: a contact element which has a contact section for making electrical contact with a mating contact element, and a connecting section for producing a crimp connection with an electrical line connectable to the contact element. The connecting section is made of a copper alloy and has an opening for receiving the line and a circumferential surface delimiting the opening. The connecting section has a surface structure which is formed on the circumferential surface and operatively connects to the electrical line upon producing the crimp connection by reshaping the connecting section.

The outer layer is peeled exactly a predetermined length from the end portion of the electromagnetic shielding tube. That is, the metal layer is exposed exactly a predetermined range at the end portion of the electromagnetic shielding tube. A flexible conductor is connected to the exposed metal layer. A separated portion is provided in the inner layer. The separated portion is formed along the length direction of the electromagnetic shielding tube. Additionally, a depth of the separated portion is the same value as the thickness of the inner layer. As such, the inner surface of the metal layer is exposed at the separated portion. It is preferable that the separated portion be formed at a plurality of locations in the circumferential direction. The inner layer is divided into a plurality of sections in the circumferential direction by the separated portion. The separated portion is a terminal processed portion, which mitigates the effects caused by differences in the physical properties of the inner layer and the metal layer.

A connector assembly for an electrical connection, the connector assembly includes a plug and a socket. The plug includes a connector and a frame. The connector has a solid core conductor, the solid core conductor has an end portion. The frame surrounds the solid core conductor except for the end portion. The end portion is deformed to overlap the frame. The socket includes a socket conductor and a receiving portion into which the plug engages. The end portion directly contacts the socket conductor to form an electrical contact and causes the frame to deflect and provide a bias to force the end portion and the socket conductor into direct contact with one another.

An evaluation jig comprises a female terminal connectable to a male terminal of a charging connector. The female terminal includes a plurality of contact pieces and a support portion. Each contact piece has a flexible piece, and a contact portion protruding toward the center axis from an inner surface of the flexible piece. The flexible piece forms a portion of a cylinder having the center axis. The flexible piece has a length equal to or larger than twice an outer diameter of the cylinder in a direction parallel to the center axis. The flexible piece is elastically deformable so that the flexible piece has a distal end portion to be displaceable in a radial direction of the cylinder relative to a proximal end portion of the flexible piece. The contact portion has a shape curved so as to protrude inward in the radial direction.

A telescopic electric conductor includes an electrically conductive first tube having a longitudinal axis and an electrically conductive second tube movable relative to the first tube along the longitudinal axis while being at least partly received within the first tube. An electrically conductive flexible self-supporting element is arranged inside the first tube and is mechanically and electrically connected to the first tube and to the second tube. The flexible element is arranged to elastically deform along the longitudinal axis. The flexible element has a waveform shape with several cycles of the waveform includes a number of sections that are welded together, each section having a shape of a half cycle of the waveform.

A contact system comprises a ground cylinder, a shielding cylinder press-fit with the ground cylinder, and a contact ring disposed between the ground cylinder and the shielding cylinder. The contact ring includes a strip of electrically conductive material defining a plurality of projections on at least one longitudinal side. The projections electrically contact the ground cylinder and the shielding cylinder for establishing an electrically conductive connection therebetween.

A biocompatible electrical connection includes: a substrate; a ferrule having a concentric flange at a first end of the ferrule; a first adhesive; and a second adhesive. The substrate includes a hole having a diameter that is a specified amount larger than an outside diameter of the ferrule forming an annular space between the hole and the ferrule, the first adhesive adheres a first surface of the concentric flange of the ferrule to a first surface of the substrate, and the second adhesive fills the annular space between the hole and the ferrule.
