  • the problem on which the invention is based is solved according to claim 1.
  • Advantageous further developments are given in the subclaims. Features which are important for the invention can also be found in the following description and in the drawings, the features can be important for the invention both on their own and in different combinations, without explicit reference being made to this again.
  • a holding device for holding a number of plug connectors and for arrangement on a wall passage. Because the holding device comprises a number of passages of essentially the same size, connectors can be exchanged. Because a module element comprises an outer interface area for receiving the module element in one of the passages and the module element comprises an inner interface area for receiving one of the connectors in the module element, interchangeability of connectors can easily be guaranteed. In particular, a position, orientation and number of contacts can be tailored to customer requirements. In particular, subsequent changes are also possible.
  • a modularity is advantageously created that enables a large number of different connectors to be arranged.
  • a third closed module element is provided for closing one of the passages.
  • the third closed module element is used in the form of a placeholder for modifications and extensions, so that Advantageously, the flexibility of a once arranged holding device for expansion purposes is retained.
  • the passages and the outer interface area of the module element that corresponds to one of the passages are each constructed in a hexagonal shape.
  • This hexagonal shape advantageously makes it possible to reduce the installation space required and at the same time to increase the contact density over the surface of the holding device.
  • the hexagonal shape also provides coding that restricts the arrangement of the module element to six positions.
  • the hexagonal shape enables round connectors to be arranged in the holding device, the connectors being able to fill the space within a hexagon as best as possible in terms of their diameter.
  • an edge region of the holding device is enclosed at an obtuse angle between two adjacent passages.
  • a fastening section for connecting the holding device to the wall is arranged in the edge area.
  • the installation space required for the holding device on the wall passage is further reduced and the edge area is thus used as best as possible.
  • an intermediate web between two adjacent passages has a longitudinal axis. The fastening section is located on the longitudinal axis of the intermediate web, as a result of which a force is advantageously introduced into the wall at a favorable point.
  • the passages and the outer interface area of the module element that corresponds to one of the passages are each constructed in a rectangular manner. This rectangular shape advantageously enables the contact density to be increased.
  • the module element can be fixed to the holding device by means of a slide that can be fed in transversely to the longitudinal direction of the connector and engages in the outer interface area.
  • the module element can thereby advantageously be connected to the holding device in a simple manner.
  • two edge sections of adjacent passages run essentially parallel to one another and form a common intermediate web. This advantageously ensures that the passages are as close as possible to one another and thus ensure a high contact density or a high connector density per area of the holding device or area of the wall.
  • the module element has a first coding section.
  • One of the passages has a second coding section.
  • the first coding section and the second coding section advantageously correspond in such a way that the module element can only be arranged in the passage in a predetermined orientation.
  • Figure 1 shows a holding device 2 which holds a number of plug connectors 4, each with a module element 6 arranged between the plug connector 4 and the holding device 2.
  • a connector 4 comprises an insulating section which is designed to hold a number of electrical contacts, and optionally a housing section.
  • An insulating section can comprise one or more insulating bodies.
  • the holding device 2 has a hexagonal pattern of passages in which the module elements 6 are arranged, the module elements 6 in turn having a hexagonal shape.
  • the hexagonal shape is preferably designed in such a way that rounded corners and essentially equally long edges are present.
  • Two adjacent passages through the holding device 2 enclose an edge region 8 at an obtuse angle.
  • a fastening section 10 is arranged, which is provided for connecting the holding device 2 to a wall.
  • the holding device 2 has exposed fastening sections 12.
  • a screw 14 is passed through the fastening sections 10, 12, which screw is passed through a fastening opening in the wall and, on the other side of the wall, with a lock nut, leads to fastening of the holding device 2 to a wall opening for the plug connector 4.
  • a longitudinal axis 16 of an intermediate web explained below is shown by way of example, the fastening section 10 being located on the extended longitudinal axis 16 of the intermediate web.
  • the plug connectors 4c, 4d and 4e each comprise a connection section 20 for connection to an accessory component.
  • a mating connector 28 corresponding to the respective connector 4 is arranged opposite to the z-direction.
  • the module element 6 can of course also receive a holding body in which, instead of electrical contacts or in addition to the electrical contacts, a pneumatic connection and / or a hydraulic connection is received, held and guided through the wall.
  • the holding body is thus constructed analogously to the insulating body, but does not have to have its electrically insulating effect.
  • the possible uses of the holding frame 2 are thus advantageously increased by the module element 6.
  • FIG. 2 shows a perspective schematic plan view of an embodiment of the holding device 2, wherein the passages are essentially rectangular.
  • the rectangular design of the passages includes a rounding of the edges.
  • a module element 6 is connected to the holding device 2 via a slide 22 and a web 24 on both sides of the module 6 by the slide 22 with respective arms 26 oriented opposite to the y direction, inter alia in the z direction, a form-fitting connection between the Web 24 and the arm 26 and between the module element 6 and the arm 26 is produced.
  • a mating connector 28 is received in the module 6.
  • the mating plug connection 28 comprises a housing 30 and an insulating section 32.
  • the insulating body of the connector 4 is opposite to the Z direction in Figure 2 not visible in the module element 6 arranged.
  • a lever 34 is arranged on the housing 30, which lever can be rotated about an axis 36.
  • Figure 2 the closed position is shown. If the lever 34 is moved out of the closed position along a bayonet-shaped path 38, which is not visible on the inside of the lever 34, the mating connector 28 is moved in the Z direction, since the distance of the bayonet-shaped path to the axis 36 changes when the lever 34 is moved out enlarged from its closed position.
  • FIG. 3 shows an exploded view of an exemplary embodiment of the holding device 2 with the associated module elements 6.
  • a closed module element 6g is shown as an example.
  • the holding device 2 has six passages 40 of essentially the same size.
