/ Λ Stackable multi-pole plug-in device

The innovation relates to a multi-pole plug device that can be lined up with a plug part and a socket part, of which one has a locking bolt on f. in a projection and the other: 1 «" per receptacle for the projection and one has associated therewith, upwardly open locking recess for the locking bolt.

In a known plug-in device of the generic type

p. Art (DE-GM 70 38 909) the release of the locking for pulling apart the parts of the plug-in device is done by using a screwdriver from just through the upwardly open locking recess through the locking bolt located on the projection against the restoring force resulting from the elasticity of the plastic material used for such parts results, is pressed down until the latching bolt comes free from the latching recess, whereupon the plug part can then be pulled out of the socket part. In particular, if such a plug-in device has a plurality of poles and consequently a not inconsiderable expenditure of force is required especially in the initial phase of pulling apart, such handling, apart from the fact that it requires the use of a tool, is somewhat inconvenient because

The disengagement slope is also used here because it is pressed down of the push button then this over the one running along the corresponding boundary edge of the receiving part Disengagement bevel including projection and associated part of the connector a little out of the connection is pushed out, so that precisely the difficult initial phase of pulling the plug-in device apart is compulsory occurs when the push button is depressed. the

The C plug-and-socket device retains its extremely simple structure. The provision of a push button, which is simple in its three-dimensional shape, on the front area of the projection of one part, which also carries the locking bolt, and the provision of an additional receiving slot for the push button on the other part are completely unproblematic.

Further refinements result from the subclaims.

is described below with reference to the accompanying drawing.

The plug-in device initially includes a socket part 1 and a plug part 2. These are parts whose Housing made of a thermoplastic material exhibiting a certain degree of elasticity. The electrical part the plug-in devices is known and will not be described in detail.

The socket part 1 and / or the plug part 2 can be arranged in a row with adjacent plug-in devices as required be arranged on the usual standard mounting rails 3. It can only be one of the parts of the connector be arranged on the standard mounting rail. But it can also be both parts each on a standard mounting rail be arranged.

In the illustrated embodiment, the plug part 2 has a projection 4 for which a receptacle 5 is formed in the socket part 1. In the front area of the protrusion 4, a locking bolt 6 is provided, which consists of two sections that are centered on both sides jr, in the front area of the projection 4 arranged push button 7 extend. The push button 7 stands up above the plug part 2 and stands, as shown in Fig. 3 can be seen, after the parts have been plugged into one another, also correspondingly up over the top of the socket part 1. Of the Push button 7 carries on its front side facing socket part 1 in its area that extends over the parts 1 and 2 protrudes, a disengagement slope 8.

The receptacle 5 in the socket part 1 is assigned a receiving slot 9 for receiving the push button 7 on its upper side. The receiving slot 9 widens in its rear area to a receptacle 10 for the locking bolt The receptacle 10 is open at the top.

If parts 1 and 2 are plugged into one another, the projection occurs 4 into the receptacle 5, the push button 7 running through the receptacle slot 9, at the end of which the
