Abstract
An engagement device ensures that a plug portion (1) is held, secure against tension, in a sleeve portion (3). The engagement device has at least one locking catch (5) which is able to be engaged behind a locking element (6) when the plug portion is completely inserted. To release the lock, a releasing lever (7) is provided next to the locking element (6), with which the locking catch is able to be disengaged from the locking element. This releasing lever is formed as a double armed lever which is able to pivot on the plug portion. Through that, no excessive force must be exerted onto the sleeve portion in order to withdraw the plug portion.
