Abstract

The connector (10) for two or more pyrotechnic lines (12, 14) has a lower section (16) connected to an upper section (18), forming one or more ignition chambers (20.1, 20.2, 20.3). It includes recesses (22, 24) for the lines, in first and/or second end sections (26, 28). The connector includes a holder (32) for the line(s). This is formed between the lower section and the upper section. The holder (32) comprises a wall-like partition with a lead-through, which holds the line. The upper and lower sections are hinged (36) together.
