    摘要: The present invention relates to a panel adapter (1) for mounting an electric connector (2) to a panel (6), the panel adapter (1) comprising a frame element (12) with at least one frame opening (14) configured to at least partially receive the electric connector (2) in an insertion direction (16) and with a bearing surface (20) surrounding the frame opening (14), and at least one guide structure (30) for slidably guiding a slider element (28) movable along the bearing surface (20) in a translation direction (32), wherein the frame opening (14) extends through the frame element (12) in the insertion direction (16), wherein the guide structure (30) is located on the bearing surface (20), and wherein the translation direction (32) extends transversely to the insertion direction (16). The guide structure (30) facilitates the correct positioning and aligning of the slider element (28) and also helps maintaining the right orientation of the slider element (28) during its installation. Thus, the present invention achieves easier installation, while lowering the risk of the slider element (28) slipping away or becoming wedged. Further, the present invention relates to an adapter assembly (8) comprising such a panel adapter (1) as well as a connection set (10) comprising such an adapter assembly (8) and the use of a guide structure (30).

    摘要: A spotlight modular assembly for providing external illumination to a charging inlet is provided, wherein the spotlight modular assembly comprises a first frame and a second frame encapsulating a circuit carrier and an illumination source electrically connected to the circuit carrier and the spotlight modular assembly is configured so that the light of the illumination source comes out from the spotlight modular assembly. The spotlight modular assembly is configured to be reversibly attached to the external frame of the charging inlet, in such a way that the light of the illumination source is directed towards the charging inlet and the first frame is provided with locking means for securing the spotlight modular assembly to the charging inlet. The charging inlet may be the charging inlet of a power-receiving unit of an electric vehicle or of a powersupplying unit of a charging station.
