  • the mounting frame forms a second coupling section, which is arranged in particular diametrically opposite the first coupling section.
  • the mounting frame for example, a conductor connecting portion springs, which extends in the opposite direction to the plug portion, but this has an offset. In this way it is possible to provide two conductor connection sections for the connection contact.
  • the mounting frame carries an insulation displacement fork as a conductor connection portion, which arises from a coupling portion, in particular, that each coupling portion each originates an insulation displacement fork.
  • the insulation displacement technology has proven itself for certain automation processes in the production of connectors.
  • the arrangement of two insulation displacement forks on the plug contact and their spacing over the mounting frame increases the contact reliability between plug contact and connection conductor considerably.
  • the mounting frame carries a stabilizing part, which springs from the second coupling portion, in particular the same direction to the plug portion.
  • This stabilizing part ensures correct alignment of the plug-in section initially during assembly of the plug-in contact in the contact carrier.
  • the stabilizing part also counteracts lateral forces during the actual plugging operation For example, be caused by asymmetrically formed contact fingers.
  • the stabilizing part is a stabilizing fork, whose arms serve to support on a contact carrier.
  • the mounting frame carries a latching element, by means of which the plug-in device can be arranged within a contact carrier.

  • the stabilizing member 23 acts also on the placement of a connector on a circuit board, by the asymmetric shaping of the contact fingers 14A and 14B owed lateral forces intercepts and prevents tilting of the plug contact 10 within the contact carrier during the insertion process.
  • the stabilizing part 23 also has another function. It carries a locking cam 26 and may itself have spring return elastic properties. With the help of the locking cam of the plug contact 10 can be held by a suitable mating component on the part of the contact carrier, for example, in a pre-assembly, which prepares the connector 10 itself for contacting the leads.
