  • the connector consists of a housing in which a holding frame is added.
  • the holding frame serves to receive a plug insert.
  • the plug insert is provided for electrical contacting with a corresponding plug insert of the mating connector.
  • a protective conductor bridge is provided in the connector, which serves to connect the protective conductor (PE contacts) of the plug insert.
  • the protective conductor bridge according to the invention is inserted laterally into the holding frame.
  • the protective conductor bridge is made of an electrically conductive material.
  • a particularly preferred embodiment of the protective conductor bridge provides to produce these from sheet metal. This is particularly flexible, easy to work with and inexpensive to manufacture.
  • At least one connecting region is provided on the holding frame. At this at least one connection region of the plug insert can be held on the support frame.
  • the connection area on the support frame is designed so that the plug insert can be fastened by means of a screw on the support frame.
  • connection region on the support frame on a through hole in which a screw can be used.
  • the through hole is provided on its inside with an internal thread.
  • a sleeve is used in the connection region of the holding frame, which is designed as a screw sleeve. This screw is inserted against rotation in the connection area. A screw with which a plug insert is fastened to the holding frame can thus be screwed into the screw sleeve in the connection region. Particularly useful is the execution of the threaded sleeve made of metal to grant a secure attachment and screwing.
  • the protective conductor bridge has at least one tab, wherein the tab has a through-hole.
  • the through hole is provided in the tab so that the Through hole is circular symmetrical to the through hole of the connecting portion of the holding frame is located.
  • the tab is preferably inserted into a slot which is aligned transversely to the through hole of the connecting region.
  • the tab is also transverse to the through hole of the connection region and the through holes can be aligned in a circle-symmetrical manner.
  • At least one pair of two parallel tabs is provided on the protective conductor bridge.
  • both tabs each have a through hole, wherein the through holes of the tabs are arranged circular symmetrical.
  • At least one of the two tabs is provided in a slot in the holding frame.
  • the second tab is arranged on the connection area that contacts the plug insert.
  • a further embodiment provides that the threaded sleeve be provided in the connecting region of the holding frame, that it penetrates at least one through hole of a tab.
  • the screw is to pass through the through hole of the tab, which is inserted into the slot in the support frame.
  • the tab can be inserted into the slot and then secured by means of the threaded sleeve, which penetrates the through hole, from falling out.
  • the protective conductor bridge has two pairs of tabs.
  • the pairs of tabs are provided at the end portions of the elongated protective conductor bridge.
  • the support frame has two connection portions in which the tabs can be inserted.
  • the holding frame has fastening means which are provided to secure the holding frame in the housing of the connector.
  • the fastening means are preferably designed as latching means.
  • the holding frame can latch in the housing of the connector.
  • Corresponding locking means in the housing ensure a secure and permanent locking of the fastening means of the holding frame in the housing.
  • a plurality of fastening means are provided in opposite orientations on the holding frame. Due to the oppositely oriented fastening means, a further positive effect is made possible in the case of housings which are designed as mounting housings. Attachment housings are housings that do not have a cable outlet, but can be attached to a housing or device wall.
  • the oppositely directed fastening means of the holding frame can be inserted from both sides in the housing. That means both from the plug side of the housing as well as from the connection side.
  • a latching of the holding frame which is also preferably made of plastic, particularly advantageous and to realize well.
  • the fastening means of the holding frame, as well as the corresponding locking means in the housing represent a particularly good and permanent connection when all components are made of plastic.
  • FIG. 1 shows a perspective view of a connector according to the invention 1.
  • a support frame 4 a plug insert 5 and a protective conductor bridge 3 are shown.
  • a surrounding these components housing 2 is in the FIG. 1 not shown.
  • the holding frame 4 has in its four corners in each case a connection region 9. This is provided for fastening the plug insert 5.
  • the plug insert 5 is screwed with four screws in the connection area 9 and held on this.
  • fixing means 6 are provided on the support frame. These locking means formed as a fastening means 6 are used for locking the support frame 4 in a housing 2.
  • a plurality of fasteners 6 are expedient aligned in opposite directions to avoid falling out as well as further penetration into a housing 2.
  • the protective conductor bridge 3 is inserted into the holding frame 4 on its longitudinal side.
