ANGLED ELECTRIC PLUG-IN CONNECTOR COMPRISING A FIRST ANGLED LIMB AND A SECOND ANGLED LIMB

摘要

An angled plug-in connector ( 1 ) is provided having an insulating body that is located in a first angled limb ( 2 ) and that contains electric contacts. The conductor or conductors that extend from the insulating body extend through a second angled limb ( 3 ). The opposing end faces ( 2 a , 3 a) of the angled limbs ( 2,3 ) that lie in the angled region are oblique, generally forming a mitre and are interconnected by an articulation or in a detachable manner. At least one of the two angled limbs is provided with a recess or annular groove ( 10 ), which extends over the greater part of a circumference thereof, is open to an exterior over at least a part of its length, and in which a fitted spring-loaded ring ( 11 ) can be placed. The ring ( 11 ) is open or includes a gap ( 12 ) and has two end sections ( 13 ). At least one of the end sections projects beyond the recess or annular groove ( 10 ), extending from the angled limb when in the working position and engages in a retaining element ( 9 ) on the other angled limb, when in the locked or working position of the plug-in connector.
