Abstract

Die Erfindung betrifft eine Anschlußkupplung für einen elektrischen Verbinder zum lösbaren miteinander Kuppeln einer flexiblen gedruckten Schaltung mit mindestens einem elektrischen Leiter. Die Anschlußkupplung weist ein an der flexiblen gedruckten Schaltung vorgesehenes Kupplungsgehäuse zur Aufnahme mindestens eines mit dem elektrischen Leiter lösbar kuppelbaren Kontaktteils auf, das mit der flexiblen gedruckten Schaltung elektrisch leitend verbunden ist. Im Kupplungsgehäuse ist ein Verriegelungselement zum vorzugsweise lösbaren Arretieren des Kontaktteils im Kupplungsgehäuse vorgesehen. Am kupplungsseitigen Ende des Kupplungsgehäuses, aus dem das Kontaktteil zum Verbinden mit dem elektrischen Leiter ragt, ist ein Einsatz zum Sichern des Verriegelungselementes vorzugsweise lösbar befestigbar.

Figure 00000001
The invention relates to a connection coupling for an electrical connector for releasably coupling together a flexible printed circuit with at least one electrical conductor. The connection coupling has a coupling housing provided on the flexible printed circuit for receiving at least one contact part which can be detachably coupled to the electrical conductor and which is electrically conductively connected to the flexible printed circuit. A locking element for preferably releasably locking the contact part in the coupling housing is provided in the coupling housing. At the coupling-side end of the coupling housing, from which the contact part protrudes for connection to the electrical conductor, an insert for securing the locking element can preferably be detachably fastened.
