Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a connector which consists of a connector and a slot for inserting the connector.
  • a first coding element with a coding pattern is arranged on the plug connector, and a second coding element with a coding pattern complementary to the coding pattern is arranged on the slot, such that the plug connector can be inserted into the slot in a plugging direction up to a coupling position, if the first Coding element and the second coding element occupy a predetermined relative position to each other,
  • Coded connectors are known in the art. In such connectors, a coding mechanism ensures that the connector can only be plugged into a correct slot assigned to it. In this way, it can be prevented in the presence of multiple slots that a connector can be inserted incorrectly in a slot not assigned to him, resulting in a faulty power or signal transmission result. Coded connectors are well known in the field of signal transmission to ensure that individual lines of a bundle of signal transmission lines are correctly coupled to associated receptacles. Coded connectors are also used in power transmission connectors to prevent connection errors during their installation.
  • a slot is understood to be any connector receptacle that is configured to be coupled to the connector so that electrical currents from the connector can be routed through the slot.
  • Examples of slots include a stationary receptacle, a receptacle assembly with multiple receptacles, a mating connector assembly, a mating connector, which may be located at a cable end or the like.
  • the connector has a first coding element with a coding pattern

  • the mating pattern may be in the form of a predetermined spatial arrangement of projections and / or recesses on the connector, which is adapted to engage with a complementary spatial arrangement of recesses and / or projections on the slot. Accordingly, the connector can be verkuppelt with the coding pattern in the plugging direction with the mating connector with the complementary coding pattern, provided that the connector and the slot are arranged relative to each other such that the coding pattern engages correctly when plugging into the complementary coding pattern.

In contrast, it is sufficient in the connector according to the invention to rotate only the first and / or the second coding element such that it is aligned in the correct position with respect to. The other coding element, whereupon a plug-in operation is possible.
