Abstract

See full text

An active fixation lead comprises a length of insulated electrical wire having a rotatable terminal pin at one end thereof. Driver coil means are connected to the terminal pin and extend within the lead to the other end of the lead. Fixation means are carried at the other end of the lead having an affixing position and a retracted, non-affixing position. The fixation means are connected to the driver coil means and movable between positions by rotation of the terminal pin. By this invention a first conductive metal sleeve adjacent the one end of the lead is provided, with the first sleeve being electrically connected to the electrical wire. A second conductive metal sleeve is electrically connected to the terminal pin. The first and second sleeves are secured together in telescoping relation with the second sleeve being rotatable. A conductive metal strip of gold or the like is positioned between the first and second sleeves. Accordingly, improved electrical contact is provided between the terminal pin and the electrical wire.
