Definitions
- the invention is based on a multi-pole plug device according to the preamble of the main claim.
- the flat receptacles arranged in three parallel rows in a contact carrier are locked in the unlocked and locked position of the common locking plate with a latching tongue behind a latching edge of the contact carrier.
- the flat receptacles are additionally secured by the plate.
- the disadvantage here is that a complicated injection mold with interlocking needles is required to produce the locking edge designed as an undercut and thus the contact carrier. Such complicated tools are relatively susceptible to repairs.
- plug devices are required, in which 50 and more individual plug connections are combined and can be plugged in or unplugged in one go.
- the disadvantage here is that the plug devices require more and more space, which is very limited, especially in the installation space of motor vehicles.

- the contact carrier can accommodate more connector parts in the form of smaller box-shaped flat receptacles while maintaining the same size and manages with spring chambers with smooth walls but with a smaller cross section.
- the spring chambers and thus the contact carriers can be manufactured more easily and with simpler tools. Such tools are substantially less susceptible to repairs, so that they are suitable for economical large-scale production.
- the plugs can only be used by exchanging the contact carriers for multipole plug devices with the desired number of poles.
- the flat receptacles can be held and secured in the contact carrier solely by the plate in its unlocking and locking position.
- the measures listed in the subclaims enable advantageous developments of the plug device specified in the main claim. It is particularly advantageous to provide the openings of the plate with projections and / or to use edge sections of the openings in such a way that the latching tongue and / or parts of the edge of the box-shaped section of the flat receptacles in the unlocking and / or locking position of the plate on the bear in the direction of the insert facing the panel.
- it is to be regarded as an essential advantage that mixed assembly with larger and smaller plug parts for the multipole plug device is possible.
- the plug parts do not only have to be arranged in rows according to size. Larger and smaller plug parts can also be mixed in one or more rows.
