Electrical plug-in connector with vibration-resistant short-circuit bridge and electrical plug-in connection

Abstract

The invention relates to an electrical plug connector (5) for connection in a plugging direction (S) to a complementary mating plug connector (7) having a plug housing (25) , the plug-in housing has a socket (75) in which a short-circuit bridge (69) is received, which is fixedly held in its plug-in position (70) and has a Two short-circuit contacts (19) on the outside, accessed in the opposite direction of said plugging direction (S). Furthermore, the invention relates to an electrical plug connection (1) having such an electrical plug connector (5) and an electrical mating plug connector (7). Electrical plug connectors (5) with fixed short-circuit bridges (69) according to the prior art have the disadvantage that vibrations between the plug connector (5) and the mating plug connector (7), namely The relative movement is converted into a relative movement of the short-circuit bridge (69) relative to the short-circuit bridge (65). This causes a lot of wear and even breaks the shorting bridge (69). The electrical plug connector (5) according to the invention solves this problem by the fact that the shorting bridge (69) is accommodated with play in the socket (75) so as to be movable with respect to the plugged position (70). In the case of the electrical plug connector ( 1 ) according to the invention, in the plugged position ( 67 ), the short-circuit contacts ( 19 ) of the short-circuit bridge ( 69 ) are connected electrically and motion-transmittingly to it. The short-circuit contacts (20) of the electrical mating plug connector (7), however, are not compatible with the The electrical plug connectors (5) are mechanically separated.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to an electrical plug-in connector for connection in a plug-in direction to a complementary mating plug-in connector, the electrical plug-in connector having a plug-in housing with a A socket socket that accommodates a shorting bridge that is held fixedly in its plugged position and that has two shorting contacts that are accessible from the outside of the plug connector in the opposite direction of the plugging direction. [0002] Furthermore, the invention relates to an electrical plug connection having an electrical plug connector of the type specified at the outset and an electrical mating plug connector. Background technique [0003] Plug connectors with a short-circuit bridge are known in the prior art in order to signal that the plug connector is plugged together with a mating plug connector. The plug connectors can be divided into two categories. On the one hand, there are plug-in connectors with short-circuit bridges, w...

Problems solved by technology

[0009] The solution described above for flexible contact arms with short-circuit bridges has the disadvantage that correct mating of plug and mating plug together is incorrectly detected or signaled in the event of a defective contact arm or clamping. signal, for this reason it is preferable to create a short circuit during mating together

[0010] In the case of short-circuit bridges firmly anchored in the plug-in element, the movement of the plug-in element relative to the mating plug-in element can lead to wear or breakage of the contacts of the short-circuit bridge under the application of corresponding shock loads
