Abstract
Official abstract text for this publication.
A clamping element for fastening an electrical conductor to a printed circuit board, by which electrically conductive connection between the electrical conductor and the printed circuit board is produced. In order to achieve an inexpensive and completely automatable possibility for connection between electrical conductors and printed circuit boards, the clamping element is in the form of a stamped sheet-metal part and has at least two clamping wings and one clamping web, which is arranged between the clamping wings. The clamping web is capable of being bent in such a way that the clamping wings clamp in the conductor. At least one securing claw is formed on the clamping wings. The securing claw can be pressed into the printed circuit board.
