Conventional technology Conventionally, if this type of sliding contact were constructed only from precious metal materials, the cost would be extremely high, so we have developed a method of punching thin plate contact materials in which only the tip of the base metal material is through-lay clad with precious metal material. Sliding contacts made by bending are generally used. 4(a), (b) and 5 show a perspective view and a partial sectional view of a sliding contact and a manufacturing method thereof based on a conventional example. In FIG. 4, 41 is a base metal piece, 42 is a base metal piece, They are precious metal pieces.These metal pieces 41.
42 is a base metal ingot 43 as seen in Figure 5.
and a precious metal ingot 44 are superimposed and welded under high temperature pressure,
Thereafter, it was made into a plate shape by repeated rolling and heat treatment, and then punched and bent into the shape shown in FIGS. 4(a) and 4(b).

Problems to be Solved by the Invention However, when a base metal material and a noble metal material are welded together under high temperature pressure, a diffusion layer is generated at the joint, and during the repeated rolling and heat treatment process, the diffusion layer becomes a film and the joint becomes easy to peel off. There were cases where the precious metal part at the tip broke off.

That is, as shown in FIG. 4(b), the base metal piece 41
The bonding surface between the metal piece 42 and the precious metal piece 42 is flat and the bonding area is small. Therefore, when this sliding contact is incorporated into a variable resistor, there is a problem that the bonding surface will peel off and break at the bonded part if used for a long time. was there.

First, as shown in FIG. 1(a), a base metal piece 11 having a stepped portion on one end surface and a noble metal piece 12 having a stepped portion on one end surface that matches the stepped portion are separated. After that, they are joined together by high-temperature pressure welding, and the joined body is formed into a thin plate-like through-lay clad material by rolling and heat treatment.
2. By punching out contact pieces connected at the base or individual contact pieces, the contact pieces are bent at about 90 degrees at the base metal piece to form an inverted cross-section as shown in Figure 1 (b). These are individual sliding contacts.
