Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

An electrical component, a component arrangement and a method for producing a component arrangement are disclosed. In an embodiment an electrical component includes a coil form and a winding of a wire around the coil form and a connection area comprising a wire end of the wire, wherein the connection area is configured to latch with a mounting facility.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

The invention claimed is: 1. An electrical component comprising: a coil form and a winding of a wire around the coil form; and a connection area comprising a wire end of the wire, wherein the connection area has a latching edge configured to latch with a mounting facility. 2. The electrical component according to claim 1 , wherein the connection area is spaced downwardly away from the coil form so that an arrangement of the mounting facility between the coil form and the connection area is enabled. 3. The electrical component according to claim 1 , wherein the wire end is configured to directly latch. 4. The electrical component according claim 1 , wherein the latching edge is formed by a change in a cross-section of the wire. 5. The electrical component according to claim 1 , further comprising a connecting piece attached to the wire end, wherein the connecting piece is configured to latch. 6. The electrical component according to claim 5 , wherein the connecting piece is a metallic strip. 7. The electrical component according to claim 5 , wherein the connecting piece is connected to the wire end by a clamping connection or crimp connection. 8. The electrical component according to claim 1 , wherein the winding comprises two wire ends, and wherein the wire ends are bound in the same direction. 9. A component arrangement comprising: the electrical component according to claim 1 ; and the mounting facility latched with the electrical component. 10. The component arrangement according to claim 9 , wherein the mounting facility is a plate. 11. The component arrangement according to claim 9 , wherein the connection area rests on a lower side of the mounting facility, and wherein the coil form or the winding rests on an upper side of the mounting facility. 12. The component arrangement according to claim 9 , wherein the mounting facility is clamped between the connection area and the winding and/or the coil form. 13. A method for surface mounting, the method comprising: producing the component arrangement according to claim 9 ; providing a connection facility; placing the connection area on the connection facility; and connecting the connection area to the connection facility. 14. A method for producing a component arrangement, the method comprising: providing the electrical component according to claim 1 ; and providing the mounting facility; arranging the mounting facility between the connection area and the coil form; and latching the connection area with the mounting facility. 15. An electrical component comprising: a coil form and a winding of a wire around the coil form; a connection area comprising a wire end of the wire, wherein the connection area is configured to latch with a mounting facility; and a connecting piece attached to the wire end, wherein the connecting piece is configured to latch. 16. The electrical component according to claim 15 , wherein the connecting piece is a metallic strip. 17. The electrical component according to claim 15 , wherein the connecting piece is connected to the wire end by a clamping connection or crimp connection.
