A preformed solder-in-pin system for use with electrical connectors. The preformed solder-in-pin system generally includes a connector pin having an open cavity at one end, into which a preformed solder member can be first inserted and then pressed, rather than melted, in place, such that voids and air spaces within the cavity are eliminated. The preformed solder-in-pin system can be assembled in high quantities, where the preformed solder members are placed in a fixture and the fixture is placed on a shaker table, so that large numbers of connector pins, pre-installed in connector grommets, can be inserted largely simultaneously.

An electric component manufacturing device includes a preheater that contacts and preheats a transported work, a melting heater that is downstream of the preheater in a transport direction of the work and contacts and heats the work at a temperature which is higher than a temperature of the preheater and at which a solder melts, a cooler that is downstream of the melting heater in the transport direction and contacts and cools the work, and a transporter that supports and transports the work to sequentially contact the preheater, the melting heater, and the cooler in this order. The transporter performs intermittent transport in which the work is transported from the preheater to the melting heater without stopping to contact both the preheater and the melting heater at the same time, and then the work stops on the melting heater.

An electronic device includes a packaging box, multiple connecting pins, and an electronic unit mounted to a base of the packaging box and including multiple wires. The base includes a wire holding platform having multiple spaced-apart insertion through holes. The connecting pins are mounted to the wire holding platform, and each have a first wire connecting portion mounted in a corresponding insertion through hole, having a first through hole and a first electrically connecting portion connected between the first wire connecting portion and a circuit board. Each of the wires has two electrically conductive portions, each of which is connected to the first wire connecting portion of a corresponding connecting pin.

A method for inserting preformed solder members into connector pins for use with electrical connectors. The method generally includes a connector pin having an open cavity at one end, into which a preformed solder member can be first inserted and then pressed, rather than melted, in place, such that voids and air spaces within the cavity are substantially eliminated. The method allows for inserting solder members in high quantities, where the preformed solder members are placed in a fixture and the fixture is placed on a shaker table, so that solder members can be inserted into large numbers of connector pins that are pre-installed in connector grommets, largely simultaneously.

A lead-free solder which can reduce the occurrence of voids and a connecting member which uses the solder and has excellent adhesion, bonding strength, and workability are provided. The lead-free solder alloy contains Sn: 0.1-3% and/or Bi: 0.1-2%, and a remainder of In and unavoidable impurities and has the effect of suppressing the occurrence of voids at the time of soldering. The connecting member is prepared by melting the lead-free solder alloy, immersing a metal substrate in the melt, and applying ultrasonic vibrations to the molten lead-free solder alloy and the metal substrate to form a lead-free solder alloy layer on the surface of the metal substrate. A heat sink and a package are soldered to each other through this connecting member by reflow heating in the presence of flux.

Described herein is an apparatus that includes a housing that defines an interior cavity. The housing also includes a feedthrough aperture. The apparatus also includes an electrical connector that is coupled to the housing over the feedthrough aperture. The electrical connector includes a base, a plurality of pins extending through the base, and a skirt positioned about a periphery of the base. The pins extend from a location external to the housing to a location within the interior cavity of the housing. Further, an inner surface of the base is co-planar with an outer end of the feedthrough aperture. The apparatus also includes solder positioned on the housing and against an entire periphery of the skirt to seal the electrical connector to the housing.

An electrically connecting device (1) includes a linking part defining an internal channel (12) that opens onto the exterior of the linking part. The internal channel (12) is able to receive two end segments of two superconducting wires (2, 3) that lie parallel in the internal channel (12) over a segment of common length; and an aperture (13) in the external jacket of the linking part. The aperture (13) is in communication with the internal channel (12) in order to allow a brazing material in liquid form to be inserted into the internal channel (12) around the two end segments of the two superconducting wires (2, 3).

A soldering aid for electrically conductively connecting a cable core of a cable to a conductor area includes a body made of an electrically insulating material and an electrically conductive contact part received in the body. The contact part has a contact surface configured to electrically conductively contact the conductor area. The body is formed with a receptacle having a slot open toward one side configured to receive the cable core of the cable, and is formed with a through-bore configured to surround a sheathed portion of the cable. The contact part closes an opening at a bottom of the slot and conductively contacts the cable core.

A method and a device for establishing a wire connection between a first contact surface and at least one further contact surface. A contact end of a wire is positioned in a contact position relative to the first contact surface with a wire guiding tool. Subsequently, a mechanical, electrically conductive connection is established between the first contact surface and the contact end with a first solder material connection, and subsequently the wire guiding tool is moved to the further contact surface thus forming a wire section and establishing a further mechanical, electrically conductive connection between the wire section end and the further contact surface with a further solder material connection.

A glazing panel which comprises an electrical connector with a tail to avoid a wicking effect. The glazing panel is particularly suitable for a vehicle glazing comprising an electrically conductive connector connected to electrically conductive structure such as a heat-able coating or an antenna.
