  • the locking device of the cap 1 on a module 2 door contacts shown in FIGS. 3A to 3C comprises means 4, 5, 6, 14 for latching the cap 1 on the module 2.
  • latching means make it possible to arrange the cap on the module in a longitudinal insertion / extraction position of the contacts and in a longitudinal position for locking the contacts.
  • the latching means of the cap on the module comprise a lever 14 provided with at least one locking pin 4.
  • the lever 14 is provided with two locking fingers 4 and 5.
  • the locking finger or fingers can snap the cap on the module according to the position of insertion / extraction of the contacts and the locking position of the contacts described above.
  • the contact extraction position of the contacts can be a position without locking the cap.
  • the first position is a stable position for which a first finger 4 snaps onto a stud 6 to position the cap in the insertion / extraction position of the contacts, the lever remaining in an inclined position for which a rear wing 10 of the lever protrudes from the external dimensions of the cap to interfere with an advanced portion 16 of the complementary connector element 12.
  • the first locking finger is here secured to the lever carrying a second locking finger but, in an alternative version can be dissociated of the lever.
  • the device comprises erasable abutment means opposing the coupling of the connector element with the complementary connector element as the cap, is not snapped into the locking position of the contacts on the module that is, as long as the cap is out of the locking position of the contacts.
  • the erasable abutment means are constituted by the end of the wing 10.
  • This wing is an operating wing of the lever, opposite to a second wing of the lever carrying the locking fingers 4, 5 with respect to a point 21 of rotation of the lever 14.
  • the cap 1 is pre-mounted on the module 2, in figure 3B , the cap 1 is in position of insertion / extraction of contacts.
  • FIGS. 3A to 3C is a device comprising two locking fingers, the finger 4 for the position of insertion / extraction of the contacts, the finger 5 for the locking position of the contacts.
  • the cap is then in the locking position of the contacts and, in this position, the arm 22 carrying the locking finger 5 rests on the stud 6 so that the lever 14 bends and lowers the first flange 10 in a non-interfering position with said portion advanced complementary connector 12.
  • the corresponding pawl 25 abuts on the body of the contact and is separated from its position snapped into the contact.
  • the erasable abutment means comprising the first flange 10 of the lever 14 can not fade, which makes the coupling of the connector elements impossible and thus allows a detection of incorrect insertion of at least one contact.
  • Such an embodiment is particularly sought after in the field of the automobile in which it is desired to detect poor mounting on the production line by preventing a connector assembly whose contacts are inserted incorrectly.
  • FIG. 5A to 5F Another embodiment of the invention is shown in particular in Figures 5A to 5F .
  • the cap 1 also comprises a locking lever 13 and the erasable abutment means comprise a first wing 9 of the lever 13.
  • the first flange 9 is contiguous to a locking pin 7 ensuring the locking of the cap on the module in the locking position of the contacts.
  • the first wing 9 is here opposite an operating wing 15 of the lever 13 relative to a point of rotation 21 of the lever 13 and has a protrusion 9a at its end.
  • the erasable abutment means comprise the protrusion 9a of the first flange 9 which interferes with an advanced portion 16 of the complementary connector element and prohibits the coupling of the connector elements 11, 12 until the cap is in position. locked on module 2.
  • the stop means further comprise a counter-stop 17 on the module 2.
  • the counter-stop is positioned so that in the position of insertion / extraction of the contacts, a lower segment of the first wing 9 rests on the abutment 17 which thus opposes a deflection of the lever 13.
  • the prominence 9a can then fade out of interference with said forward portion of the complementary connector 12 by bending the lever 13.
  • the first wing comprises two longitudinal branches 18, 19 and a transverse bridge 20, the longitudinal branches 18, 19 framing the locking finger 7, the transverse bridge 20 being located above the finger 7.
