Abstract:
     A connecting device connects at least one electrical foil conductor to at least one connection line. The connecting device comprises a connector housing having at least one connection line through-hole and at least one foil conductor through-hole. Arranged in the connector housing is an intermediate connecting arrangement having at least one intermediate connector, which extends between the connection line through-hole and the foil conductor through-hole and has a connection line-connection region, which is adjacent to the connection line through-hole, for connection to a connection line, which is guided through the connection line through-hole into the interior of the connector housing, and a current conductor, which extends into the vicinity of the foil conductor through-hole and has a foil conductor-connection region for connection to a foil conductor, which is guided through the foil conductor through opening into the interior of the connector housing. The current conductor comprises a current conductor region configured for applying a foil conductor-connection region. There is provided a clamping spring configured for resilient attachment to the current conductor region and the foil conductor-connection region adjacent thereto, and for clamping, thereby caused, of the foil conductor-connection region to the current conductor region. A connecting device of this type is suitable for electrical connection of solar cells of a solar cell battery module to external current consumers and may be produced in a particularly simple and beneficial manner.
