Abstract
A multipin cable connector (1) which includes a male connector (16) and a cable seat (10), for connecting a multi-core cord (2) with individual stranded wires (4) by axially contacting the mating-side end sections of the wires (4) with cable-side end areas of contacts (13) located in contact carrier (11) of male connector (16). The end areas are formed especially as contact spikes (20), and are routed and held up to stop (29) in tubular channels (27) of distribution piece (5). One cable-side end part (24) of distribution piece (5) is formed as a clamping area which tapers conically to the free end and has an outline (25) which is matched to the inside contour (26) of mating-side section (18) of tubular grip (6) of cable seat (10), where external wall part (33), which surrounds each channel (27), has at least one longitudinal slot (32). This cable connector (1) is suitable for connection of cords (2) of any configuration and in spite of a simple and cost-efficient structure is characterized by simple installation, permanently reliable electrical and mechanical connection and minimal dimensions, especially in the clamp contact area.
