Abstract:
A plug connector for connecting to a mating plug connector along an insertion direction. The plug connector includes a housing including an interior and a contact element situated in the interior. The plug connector further includes a connector position assurance. The housing includes a pressure equalization element for equalizing the pressure of the interior with respect to the exterior of the housing. The CPA is situated at the housing and is movable between a first position and a second position relative to the housing, a sealing element being provided at CPA, the pressure equalization element being sealed with respect to the exterior by the sealing element in the second position.
Abstract:
A plug includes: a housing with a plurality of electrical plug contacts that electrically contact complementary plug contacts of a plugging module in a completely plugged-on position; and a slider movably attached to the housing, including first and second gear rack segments, and configured to engage with the plugging module such that, in response to a movement of the slider relative to the housing, a force is transmitted by the slider to the plugging module by which the plug and plugging module move towards each other or away from each other. A lever is rotationally mounted to the housing so that, responsive to a movement of the lever in one direction, the gear meshes with the first gear rack segment moving the slider in a first movement direction, and subsequently meshes with the second gear rack segment moving the slider in a second opposite movement direction.
Abstract:
A contact element. The contact element has a contact body extending along a longitudinal axis and a cable holder connected to the contact body and extending along the longitudinal axis, wherein the cable holder has at least one retaining section for fixing a cable to the cable holder. The contact element additionally has a protective element. In order to prevent the protruding strands of the cable from damaging the sealing mat when inserting the contact element through the sealing mat, the protective element is displaceable along the longitudinal axis from a first position into a second position, wherein the protective element covers the cable holder in the second position. A method for producing a contact-element/cable arrangement is also described.
Abstract:
A plug connector assembly for establishing an electrical plug connection, the plug connector assembly including a contact carrier and a contact. The contact is insertable into the contact carrier in a plug-in direction and extends along a longitudinal axis. It has a contact section and a connecting neck section. The contact section including a contact latching element, which includes a protrusion transverse to the longitudinal axis and is, in particular, immovable in relation to the contact section. The contact carrier includes a contact carrier housing having a chamber for receiving the contact section of the contact. The chamber includes a first inner wall generally in parallel to the plug-in direction, a contact carrier latching element, provided adjacent to the first inner wall generally transverse to the plug-in direction, which includes a contact carrier latching surface, and a second inner wall opposite the first inner wall.
Abstract:
A multiple-contact plug and a plug connector system equipped therewith are described. The multiple-contact plug has a plug housing having contact receiving chambers and a plurality of contacts that are each inserted into one of the contact receiving chambers. The contacts are each formed having a contact base body and an elastically deflectable primary lance protruding laterally from this contact base body, which lance is elastically reversibly deflectable from an outward-protruding position into a position deflected toward the contact base body. The multiple-contact plug in addition has at least one short-circuit jumper element. Electrically conductive contact surfaces of the short-circuit jumper element are situated in at least two of the contact receiving chambers and are electrically conductively connected. The contact surfaces are situated in the contact receiving chambers at positions such that they are each contacted by the primary lance, in its protruding position, of a contact fixed in the respective contact receiving chamber. On a mating plug, a short-circuit separating element can then be fashioned such that, in a plugged-together state, it displaces the primary lance of at least one contact from the protruding position into the deflected position, and in so doing interrupts the electrical contact between the primary lance and the contact surface of the short-circuit separating element.

Abstract:
A coupling for receiving two plug-in connectors which face one another. The coupling has a sleeve-like housing which extends along an axial direction and has a first end, a second end averted from the first end, and an interior space. A first opening for inserting a first plug-in connector having a first faster is at the first end. A second opening for inserting a second plug-in connector having a second fastener is at the second end. A first coupling fastener is arranged at the first end and interacts with the first fastener of the first plug-in connector in such a way that the first plug-in connector is captively coupled to the coupling. A second coupling fastener is arranged at the second end, and interacts with the second fastener of the second plug-in connector in such a way that the second plug-in connector is captively coupled to the coupling.
Abstract:
An electrical plug contact for high-current applications. The plug contact encompasses a housing that extends along a longitudinal axis and an interior space for receiving a single counterpart contact element. The plug contact encompasses a cable having a plurality of strands, the cable being guided from an exterior space of the housing into the interior space and being fastened thereon. The cable has an end in the interior space, the cable having, adjacently to the end, a damping portion in which the cable is split into a plurality of separate conductors; a plurality of contacting elements, each of which is arranged suitable for electrically and mechanically contacting the single counterpart contact element, each of which is secured on a corresponding one of at least two of the conductor strands, so that each conductor strand is connected to one contact element, and so that each conductor strand is at the same electrical potential.
Abstract:
An electrical plug connector. The electrical plug connector has: a connector housing for accommodating at least one electrical cable that extends along an axial direction; a shielding plate that completely encloses the connector housing in a circumferential direction around the axial direction. The connector housing has, on an external surface, a play-limiting element for limiting a degree of play in the state plugged together with the mating plug connector. The shielding plate has an opening, the play-limiting element protruding from the connector housing and extending through the opening of the shielding plate and/or the play-limiting element being fashioned as a connector housing opening in the connector housing and being adjacent to the opening.
