  • the taper of the pin in the area the coding point can for example be in the form of a rectangular groove, a V-groove, or as concave inner curvature.
  • the cross section of the connecting pin seen in the insertion direction is continuously tapered accordingly. Through the cross-sectional taper there remains a remaining width of the pin that is smaller than the width of the coding gap so that the connector pin coded in this way pass through the coding element and into the receiving part can be used. This is the only way to make electrical contact with the contact element producible. Pins that lack the appropriate "coding" cannot be inserted into the socket, there is still an electrical contact with the contact element within the receiving parts of the frame.
  • the Coding gap has a minimum gap width, which has a value in the range between the lateral Width of the pin and the remaining width in the area of the taper is set. Seen in the direction of insertion, the gap width of the coding gap can be constant. Otherwise the minimum gap width must be set in an upper area of the coding gap, whereby the Gap width of the coding gap in a lower one - seen in the direction of insertion - below Range can be larger.
  • a radiator unit is preferred in which the at least one connecting pin has a plurality of coding points has, which correspond to one or more coding elements.
  • Several Coding points allow a greater variety of coding variations, thus enabling one finer classification of suitable discharge lamps and thus increase safety with regard to use of unsuitable discharge lamps.
  • the respective coding points can be at a Common side of the respective pin can be provided, or on opposite Pages.
  • both connecting pins have at least one coding point have, and that the left and right receiving part with at least one corresponding Coding element is closed, one in the area of the respective coding point Has coding gap.
  • An embodiment of the emitter unit in which the tapering has been found to be suitable is designed as a circumferential groove.
  • a circumferential groove is in particular at a pin with a round cross-section easily manufactured.
  • the taper is as in Longitudinal slot extending insertion direction.
  • a slot is special to be preferred for a connecting pin with a rectangular cross-section.
  • the radiator unit according to the invention has proven particularly useful which the taper is designed as a groove with a flat bottom region, and wherein the coding gap - seen in the direction of insertion - after an area with the minimum gap width one Has extension area, the opening width is at least as large as that Diameter an envelope around the cross section - in the direction of the piston longitudinal axis seen - the connector pin in the area of the coding point, and where the coding gap has a flat side which corresponds to the bottom region.
  • a mechanical stop is provided for the connector pin.
  • the connector pin can, if it has the appropriate coding, inserted into the coding gap and then be rotated about its longitudinal axis until the flat bottom area of the groove is on the flat side of the coding gap. This ensures compliance with a given orientation relieved of the discharge lamp.
  • the extension area allows turning the pin around the piston longitudinal axis.
  • the contact element as a surrounding the respective pin Spring element formed. This ensures that the connector pin is securely held in the socket guaranteed.
  • a coding element designed in the form of a coding plate has proven particularly useful. Such a coding plate can be manufactured with little effort.
