Abstract
The apparatus ( ) for vibrationproof locking of a plug ( ) in its plugged-in position inside a unit, in particular inside a clutch actuator ( ), encompasses a housing ( ) that has a housing top shell ( ) and a housing bottom shell ( ), by means of at least one locking element ( ) that engages the plug ( ). The locking element ( ) has a blocking section ( ), which is kept in a blocking position by the plug ( ) when this plug is not completely plugged in—thus preventing the housing shells ( ) from being joined—and which can be brought into a position that permits the housing shells ( ) to be joined only when the plug ( ) is completely plugged in.
