Abstract
An electromechanical connecting device comprises a current supply housing and a current tap housing, each with contact surfaces. The current supply housing is provided with a moving magnet carriage with current contacts. The magnet carriage on the current supply housing and on the current tap housing are both provided with magnets. A permanent magnet is arranged in the current supply housing on the side opposing the current tap housing. The current supply housing and the current tap housing may be forcibly connected and disconnected by a rotating device with a turning motion. The contact surfaces of the current supply housing and the current tap housing make contact earlier than the contact surfaces of the current supply housing and the magnet carriage on connection of the current supply housing and the current tap housing and on disconnection are in contact longer.
