Definitions

  • the invention relates to a connector assembly according to the preamble of claim 1.
  • Plug-in connector with an external thread which can be secured via a nut designed to match the external thread in a recess of a wall.
  • the external thread is relatively long and thus usually designed with oversize. This has the disadvantage that the screwing of the fastening nut in many cases, especially at low wall thickness, is relatively time consuming.
  • such a threaded fastener has the risk that the nut may become loose, e.g. due to forces or vibrations acting on the connector.
  • the invention has for its object to provide a connector assembly in which a connector can be securely fixed by means of a mounting ring in a recess of a wall in a simple and fast way.
  • the invention has the advantage that the connector can be fixed by means of the mounting ring with simple, ergonomic movements in a fast manner to the wall or within the recess.
  • By appropriate dimensioning of the number of discrete rotational angular positions an adaptation to respective tasks is possible, e.g. by providing less discrete rotational angular positions, rapid attachment, or still relatively fast attachment by providing a greater number of discrete rotational angular positions, but finer graded adaptability to varying wall thicknesses.
  • the connector assembly or its connector may e.g. be designed as an electrical connector, pneumatic connector, hydraulic connector, optical connector or as a connector for other other media.
  • one, several or all parts of the connector assembly made of plastic, for example as an injection molded part.
  • the housing of the connector, the fastening ring, the first and / or the second fastening means may be made of plastic.
  • the fastening ring by means of the second fastening means in cooperation with the first fastener latching stepwise relative to the connector is rotatable. Due to the stepped detent can be realized in a simple and reliable manner various discrete rotational angle positions in which the mounting ring is locked relative to the connector.
  • the first and / or the second fastening means of a plane perpendicular to the longitudinal axis of the space differently spaced detent positions, in particular a plurality of successively ramped, stepped or sawtooth in a direction of rotation increasing detent positions.
  • the first and / or the second attachment means have a sawtooth-like contour in side view of the attachment means.
  • the first fastening means is arranged in the recess fastened in the interior of a connector having a hollow object or outside of the interior.
  • the wall-mounted hollow object may for example be a housing of a device, eg of an electrical appliance.
  • the fastening ring can be slid onto the rear side of the connector arranged inside the interior, and during the insertion of the connector into the recess from the inside against the wall of the hollow Are led objects until the mounting ring rests against the wall. Then, the connector can be locked by means of an external latching means on the outside of the wall behind the recess.

  • the connector assembly is set in the recess by the second fastener such as a bayonet engages behind the wall.
  • the second fastener such as a bayonet engages behind the wall.
  • spatially separated latching means and axial fixing means may be provided as second fastening means.
  • the locking means serve to fix the rotational angular position of the mounting ring relative to the connector and the Axialfixierstoff for axially fixing the connector in the recess.
  • the first fastening means on the or the plug-in connections of the connector facing side of the wall or on the plug-in connections of the connector facing away from the wall is arranged.
  • This has the advantage that the connector assembly is fixed in the circumferential direction and can not be misaligned by external forces.
  • the fastening arrangement which is formed from the second fastening means in cooperation with the first fastening means, can be relieved of the absorption of circumferential forces and is therefore not affected by such peripheral forces in terms of their fixing effect.
  • the connector on an outer peripheral side of its housing at least one passable through the recess outer latching means, which is adapted to engage in the recess in the wall-mounted state of the connector assembly.
  • the outer detent means may comprise at least one first abutment surface for abutment against the surface of the wall outside the recess and at least one second abutment surface for abutment within an inner peripheral side of the recess.

  • the connector is designed in several parts and has at least one contact carrier, in which the or the plug-in connections are arranged, and at least two shell-like composable and the contact carrier at least partially receiving in itself housing parts.
  • a modular connector is provided which can be configured by providing differently shaped housing parts for the aforementioned different fastening variants.
  • always the same plug-in connections having contact carrier can be used, so that the production and storage of the components of the connector assembly is favored despite high flexibility.
  • the first and / or the second fastening means spatially separated latching means for fixing the rotational angular position of the mounting ring relative to the connector and Axialfixierstoff for axially fixing the connector in the recess.
