  • the wire receiving part can be positioned on the wire connection elements, so that an electrical connection is established between the wire connection elements and the wires of the data transmission cable.
  • the housing of the electrical sockets has a base part that forms the plug receptacle and at least one housing wing that can be moved back and forth between a release position that exposes the wire receptacle part and a fixed position that fixes the wire receptacle part on the wire connection elements.
  • the at least one housing wing assumes its release position, so that the wire connection part is given access to the wire connection elements.
  • the at least one housing wing can be moved into its fixing position in which it fixes the wire receiving part on the wire connection elements.
  • Electrical sockets of the type in question are often mounted on a holding device, for example on a carrier panel.
  • a holding device for example on a carrier panel.
  • they each have a spring element on the outside of their housing, with the aid of which the electrical sockets can be resiliently clamped to the holding device.
  • Such electrical sockets are for example from DE 20 2009 013 238 U1 known.
  • the spring element is often integrally connected to the housing.
  • a configuration is, for example, from US 6,739,898 B1 known.
  • the housing of the electrical sockets is made of metal, in particular of a die-cast material.
  • the housing has a high level of mechanical stability and ensures electrical shielding.
  • such housings generally only have a low degree of elasticity. Therefore, configurations are known in which the spring element is designed as a separate component. This allows the spring element to be given a high degree of elasticity despite the hard and brittle design of the housing.
  • Electrical sockets with a spring element designed as a separate component are for example from the DE 10 2013 021 296 B3 as well as from the EP 3 276 756 A1 known.
  • a data transmission cable which has one or more wires can be connected to the electrical sockets.

  • the ends of the individual wires are positioned in the wire receiving part of the socket.
  • the wire receiving part has, for example, suitable receiving channels for the wires and clamping elements for clamping the wires. If the wire receiving part with the wires positioned therein is positioned on the wire connection elements, then the wire connection elements, designed for example as insulation displacement contacts or piercing contacts, each dip into a receiving channel of the wire receiving part, penetrate the wire insulation and make electrical contact with the electrical conductor of the respective Vein.
  • the wire receiving part is fixed to the wire connection elements with the aid of the at least one housing wing.

  • an electrical socket in which two housing wings are mounted on a base part of the housing, each of which can be pivoted back and forth between a release position and a fixed position.
  • the housing wings can be locked together with the aid of locking lugs and locking receptacles. This ensures that the housing wings do not inadvertently move from their fixed position into their release position.
  • the locking connection can then only be released again with great effort and, above all, with the risk of damaging the housing wings.
  • Such a release of the latching connection may be necessary, for example, if a test of the electrical connection between the electrical socket and the wires of the data transmission cable produces a negative result.

  • the spring element 240 has only a single hook-like holding section 294, which faces the first housing wing 218 and interacts positively with a holding element 302 of the first housing wing 218, in that the holding section 294 encompasses a rear end area 306 of the holding element 302 when the spring element 240 assumes its locking position.
  • a further hook-like holding section is not required for the spring element 240, since this is held on the guide rib 276 of the second housing wing 222.
  • the wires 54 of the data transmission cable 12 can be connected in a simple manner to the contact springs 28 of the electrical socket 210 and, if necessary, this connection can be separated in a simple manner.
  • To connect the wires 54 it is only necessary to pivot the two housing wings 218, 222 into their release position, so that the wire receiving part 50 of the electrical socket 210 together with the wires 54 of the data transmission cable 12 arranged therein on the wire connection elements 44 the electrical socket 210 can be positioned.
  • the two housing wings 218, 222 can then be pivoted into their fixed position, the wire receiving part 50 being pressed against the wire connection elements 44 of the electrical socket 210.
  • the two housing wings 218, 222 can then be locked in their fixed position by means of the spring element 240.
  • the spring element 240 is displaced from its unlocking position into its locking position, in which it engages with the holding section 294 around the holding element 302 of the first housing wing 218, forming a form fit. If the data transmission cable 12 is to be separated from the electrical socket 210 again, it is only necessary to move the spring element 240 into its unlocking position, in which the holding section 294 releases the holding element 302 so that the two housing wings 218, 222 pivot into their release position can be.
