Abstract
An electrical connector between relatively movable end points, comprises a cassette having a stator which is stationary in the mounted position and a rotor which is rotatable relative to the stator about a common axis, the stator and rotor each bearing one of the end points. In the cassette, between the stator and the rotor, an electrical conductor () running in a coiled fashion is situated with its ends fixed to the end points in order to connect to continuing connecting lines. To simplify connection of the connecting lines, an identical electrical contact element is attached to each end of the conductor (). The electrical contact element is provided with pins () which are suitable as contact pins for attaching a plug and as contact surfaces for fixedly connecting the conductors of a connection line.
