Abstract

Die Erfindung betrifft ein elektrisches Steckverbindungselement und ein elektrisches Steckverbindungssystem. Das Steckverbindungselement ermöglicht unter Verwendung eines komplementären Steckverbindungselements eine wiederlösbare elektrische Steckverbindung und umfaßt ein Gehäuse (22) und ein in das Gehäuse hineinführendes und von diesem gehaltenes Kabel (24) mit zumindest einer von einer Isolierung umgebenen Ader (26).The invention relates to an electrical connector element and an electrical Plug-in connection system. The connector allows under Use of a complementary connector element a releasable electrical connector and comprises a housing (22) and one leading into the housing and cable (24) held by the latter with at least one of insulation surrounding vein (26).

Zur Kosten- und Gewichtseinsparung wird vorgeschlagen, jedes in dem Gehäuse befindliche Ende (28) der Adern abzuisolieren und diese Enden als Kontaktelemente zur unmittelbaren Anlage an zugeordnete Kontaktelemente des komplementären Steckverbindungselements zu verwenden.

Figure 00000001
To save costs and weight, it is proposed to strip each end (28) of the wires located in the housing and to use these ends as contact elements for direct contact with associated contact elements of the complementary connector element.
