The present invention relates to a housing assembly for an electrical connector which is pluggable with a mating connector, comprising a manually movable operating element for connecting the electrical connector to the mating connector, a connector housing at which the operating element is arranged to be movable between an initial position and a final position, a securing element which is movable between a release position and a secured position, and a trigger mechanism which holds the securing element in the release position pre-stressed in the direction of the secured position, where the trigger mechanism is activated in the final position of the operating element, and the securing element is movable to the secured position, whereby the operating element is securable in the final position. Due to the trigger mechanism, the securing element can be automatically transferred from its release position to its secured position solely by moving the operating element to the final position and does not require any manual operation. The present invention furthermore relates to an electrical connector with such a housing assembly and a connector assembly with the electrical connector and the mating connector.

Housing assembly for an electrical connector as well as electrical connector and connector assembly

A camera adapter for connecting a camera having an optical axis. The camera adapter comprises an adapter cover for connecting to a camera housing of the camera, the adapter cover and the camera housing form a chamber for a sensor board of the camera. The camera adapter has a connector for connecting the camera adapter to a control unit outside the chamber, a waveguide for transmitting signals from the sensor board to the connector, the waveguide being guided inside the chamber; and a contact surface disposed on the waveguide for contacting the waveguide with the sensor board in the chamber, the waveguide is arranged with the contact surface on a side wall of the camera adapter extending in the direction of the optical axis in order to contact an edge of the sensor board in a contact direction which is perpendicular to the optical axis of the camera.

Camera adapter and a method for mounting a camera

An electrical plug-type connection comprises a first connector including a connector housing and at least one electrical terminal arranged therein, and a mating connector for coupling to the first connector. The mating connector includes at least one mating electrical terminal extending in an axial direction, and a mating terminal touch protection device movable from an initial position into a final position by the connector housing as the first connector and the mating connector are coupled.

Electrical plug-type connection and electrical connector

An electrical plug connector includes a connector housing receiving an electrical terminal. The connector housing has an outer cooling gas connection cooling an electrical plug-in connection of the plug connector with a mating plug connector. A cooling gas is brought into the plug connector by the outer cooling gas connection through a cooling gas channel of the connector housing.

A contact pin for a plug connector includes a base body having a longitudinal axis and a surface, a first end adapted to be plugged into an opening of a pin strip of the plug connector, and at least four retaining elements molded on the base body. A first pair of retaining elements are arranged successively spaced apart along the longitudinal axis and a second pair of retaining elements are arranged oppositely at a same point along the longitudinal axis in a circumferential direction. The first pair of retaining elements are arranged in the circumferential direction at a first angle offset from one another. The first angle is smaller than 90&#xb0;.

Contact pin for plug connector having retaining elements

A plug insert comprises a base body, a receptacle extending through the base body, and a positioning element at least partially received in the receptacle. The base body has a plug side and an opposite contact side. The receptacle extends through the base body from the plug side to the contact side and at least partially receives a connector. The positioning element is accessible from both the plug side and the contact side and positions a contact pin of the connector.

Plug insert with positioning element

The invention relates to a contact element, made of an electrically conductive contact material. In order to provide a contact element which can be passed repeatedly and non-destructively through a housing or a seal of a plug connector in and/or opposite to a direction of insertion (E), a contact element is provided comprising a body extending in the direction of insertion (E) and a position securing element disposed on an upper side of the body, projecting upwards out of an opening in the body transversely to the direction of insertion (E), and that can be deflected elastically, the position securing element having a slope surface that is inclined against the direction of insertion (E), adjoining which, without any kinks or edges, are a curved section and an end section, and the end section ending with a free end within the cubature of the body.

Seal-preserving contact element with a position securing element

The invention relates to an arrangement for electrical contacting and a plug type connection comprising such an arrangement. The invention further relates to a method for joining an arrangement for electrical contacting to a counter-arrangement. An object of the invention is to provide an arrangement for electrical contacting, in which the risk of damage is as small as possible. This object is achieved by an arrangement for electrical contacting which comprises a resiliently redirectable contact arm having a contact face and a counter-element which can be displaced parallel with the contact arm, wherein the counter-element is displaced with respect to a start position (A) in a contact position (K) and the contact arm is thereby resiliently redirected transversely relative to the displacement direction (M) of the counter-element.

Arrangement for electrical contacting and plug type connection comprising such an arrangement and method for joining such an arrangement to a counter-arrangement

A contact element for a plug type connector is provided a contact body having a pair of guiding faces and a catch opening. The contact body is prepared from electrically conductive contact material. The pair of guiding faces provide a reinforced region with each guiding face having a plurality of layers overlapping each other transversely with respect to a length of contact body. The catch opening is disposed between the pair of guiding faces.

Contact element for a plug type connector and arrangement comprising a contact element

The invention relates to a method () and an adjustment arrangement () for orientating contact pins () of an electric component () and to an electric component () having a plurality of contact pins (). So as to be able to orientate the contact pins () as precisely and efficiently as possible along a contact contour (K) at least in portions and thus be able to fit the electric component () securely on a contact carrier, the invention provides that a plurality of contact pins () arranged along the contact contour (K) in advance are orientated simultaneously by a shaping body () to form the contact contour (K), the shaping body () being part of the adjustment arrangement ().
