An electrical contact element for a car charging plug connector is disclosed, which electrical contact element has a contact part and a connection part, wherein the connection part can be connected to an electrical conductor of a cable. Cooling liquid can be delivered to the contact element. As a result, the heat produced on the contact element is extracted directly. Therefore higher currents can be transmitted by such a contact element than by known contact elements.

Liquid-cooled contact element

A charging plug-in connector is provided that comprises a housing having a through-going grip opening and an actuator for activating a charging procedure, wherein the actuator extends at least in part into the through-going grip opening. This construction renders the charging plug-in connector particularly user-friendly and is still robust. If the charging plug-in connector falls down, the sensitive actuator is protected.

Charging plug-in connector having an acutuator

The disclosure relates to a car charging plug-in connector for an electric vehicle, comprising at least one signal contact element and at least two power contact elements. The car charging plug-in connector has a plug-in connector body and a contact carrier. The contact carrier is arranged on the plug-in side of the plug-in connector body and is fastened to the plug-in connector body in a reversible manner. Therefore, the contact carrier can be easily replaced as required, as a result of which the car charging plug-in connector can be used in a particularly cost-effective manner.
