Abstract

Afin d'améliorer la fiabilité de contact, l'invention concerne un élément conducteur (A) qui est pourvu : d'un conducteur à conservation de forme (10) qui possède des propriétés de conservation de forme ; d'un conducteur souple (21) souple ; et d'un élément d'assemblage (30) dans lequel une première unité de connexion (31), fixée au conducteur à conservation de forme (10), et une seconde unité de connexion (32), ayant une forme plate et fixée au conducteur souple (21), sont formées. Étant donné que le conducteur souple (21) peut être placé sur la seconde unité de connexion plate (32), il est possible de fixer l'un à l'autre le conducteur souple (21) et la seconde unité de connexion (32) par soudage par ultrasons. Étant donné qu'un film d'oxyde est éliminé par vibration à l'étape de soudage par ultrasons, une plus haute fiabilité de contact est obtenue par comparaison au cas d'un procédé de fixation consistant seulement à appliquer une pression au conducteur souple (21) et à la seconde unité de connexion (32).
