Embodiment Construction

[0039] First, refer to figure 1 A plug connector 1 according to the present invention is described. The plug connector 1 comprises a plug element 2 and a mating plug element 3 . The plug element 2 and the mating plug element 3 are arranged opposite each other on either side of the hole 4 of the wall 5, wherein the plug element 2 is located on the first side 6 of the wall and the mating plug element 3 is located on the second side of the wall. Two sides 7.

[0040] The wall 5 is formed by three wall elements 5a - c spaced apart from each other along the vertical direction Z of the plug connector 1 . The wall elements 5a-c may for example be sheets of a motor vehicle body.

[0041] exist figure 1 In the illustration shown, the plug element 2 and the mating plug element 3 are in a position V before they are plugged together, in which they are ready for insertion in the direction of insertion S of the plug element 2 or in the mating insertion direction G of the mating plug ele...

Abstract

The invention relates to a plug element (2, 2') of a plug connector (1) for a sealed electrical plug-and-socket connection extending through a hole (4) in a wall (5), having a protective housing (9, 9'), which comprises an inner chamber (46), which at least in places forms a mating plug receptacle (45) for a mating plug element (3) complementary to the plug element (2, 2'), having a locking device (11, 11'), which is actuatable from outside the protective housing (9) and may be moved from an unlocked position (T) into a locked position (R), the locking device (11, 11') extending at least in the locked position (R) into the inner chamber (46) and overlapping the mating plug receptacle (45) at least in places, and having at least one sealing element (18, 18') resting against the protective housing (9, 9') at least in a final plugged-together position of the plug connector (1),; by means of which sealing element the mating plug receptacle (45) may be sealed relative to the external environment of the plug connector (1). In order to provide a sealed plug connector (1) with the smallest possible dimensions, provision is made according to the invention for at least one sealing element (18, 18') to be arranged sealingly between the protective housing (9, 9') and the locking device (11, 11') at least in the locked position (R).

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a plug element of a plug connector for a sealed electrical plug-socket connection extending through a hole in a wall, said plug element having a protective housing comprising an inner chamber forming, at least in some places, a mating plug receptacle for a mating plug element complementary to said plug element; The exterior of the housing is actuatable and movable from an unlocked position to a locked position, the locking device extending into the inner chamber at least in the locked position and at least some distance from the mating plug receptacle. and the plug element has at least one sealing element that leans against the protective housing at least in the final plugged-together position of the plug connector, the mating plug receptacle Sealing against the external environment is possible by means of the sealing element. [0002] The invention also relates to a plug connector for an electrical plug-socket connection exten...
