Abstract

Für einen elektrischen Steckverbinder mit in Kontaktkammern angeordneten einteiligen Kontaktelementen mit spiegelbildlich angeordneten Federschenkein mit einer geprägten Kontur, wird vorgeschlagen, die Federschenkel derart auszubilden, daß diese bei in die Kontaktkammern eingefügten Kontaktelementen einen Abstand zu den Kontaktkammerwänden aufweisen, wobei die Federschenkel beim Einfügen eines Kontaktstiftes in die Kontaktelemente derart ausgelenkt werden, daß sie sich an den Kontaktkammerwänden abstützen.

Figure 00000001
For an electrical plug connector with one-piece contact elements arranged in contact chambers with mirror legs arranged in mirror image, with an embossed contour, it is proposed to design the spring legs in such a way that they are at a distance from the contact chamber walls when the contact elements are inserted into the contact chambers, the spring legs when inserting a contact pin in the contact elements are deflected such that they are supported on the contact chamber walls.
