The device for connecting multiple-conductor cables is composed of two hermaphroditic connectors which are coupled by means of their electric connection face, the first connector being joined to the input cable and the second connector being joined to the output cable. Locking after coupling of said connectors is performed by means of U-shaped stirrups, the respective arms of which are swung back to a position along the longitudinal sides of the connectors. The pivotally mounted ends of the stirrup arms are each provided with a member having an engagement slot and a locking recess in which is engaged a projecting portion of the body of the other connector.

Electric connection device for coupling multiple-conductor cables

A device for protecting contact elements of a connector having two ends, made up of an inner and outer disk mounted to support cylinders placed in front of the contact face of each end, and pierced with openings. The openings on the outer disk are normally masked by the inner disk, and are open to the contact elements only at the time of connection, under the action of a circumferentially disposed control ring, carrying a lug working with grooves on the support cylinders. The applications of the invention are particularly in the fields of television cameras and oil prospecting.
