Aux figures, on a représenté un élément de connecteur comprenant un corps 1 dans lequel s'étendent une série de voies 2 destinées à recevoir, chacune, un organe de In the figures, a connector element is shown comprising a body 1 in which extend a series of channels 2 intended to each receive a member for
contact électrique 3.electrical contact 3.
Le corps 1 comporte, sur sa face 6, une série de The body 1 has, on its face 6, a series of
languettes élastiques 5 débouchant dans les voies 2 et pourvues, sur leur face tournée vers la voie, d'un ergot 7. elastic tabs 5 opening into the tracks 2 and provided, on their face facing the track, with a lug 7.
La face 6 du corps 1 est pourvue d'une fente 8 25 s'étendant transversalement aux voies 2. The face 6 of the body 1 is provided with a slot 8 25 extending transversely to the tracks 2.
Les organes de contact électrique 3 se présentent The electrical contact members 3 are presented
sous la forme d'un caisson 10 avec, à une extrémité, une pince élastique 11 et, à l'autre extrémité, des pattes 12 30 pour le sertissage d'un conducteur électrique. in the form of a box 10 with, at one end, an elastic clamp 11 and, at the other end, lugs 12 30 for crimping an electrical conductor.
Sur une face, le caisson comporte une ouverture 13 destinée à recevoir l'ergot 7 de la patte élastique et une fenêtre 14 destinée à recevoir des doigts 15 d'un volet 16, lesdits doigts traversant la fente 8 lorsque le volet est basculé en position de fermeture. Dans la technique antérieure, le volet et le corps sont moulés en une seule pièce et ledit volet est relié au On one side, the box has an opening 13 intended to receive the lug 7 of the elastic tab and a window 14 intended to receive the fingers 15 of a flap 16, said fingers passing through the slot 8 when the flap is tilted in position closing. In the prior art, the flap and the body are molded in one piece and said flap is connected to the
corps par des pattes souples.body by flexible legs.
On a constaté que les pattes souples étaient fragiles et qu'après plusieurs manoeuvres de volets, elles se rompaient de sorte que les doigts 15 risquaient de ne plus It was found that the flexible tabs were fragile and that after several maneuvers of flaps, they broke so that the fingers 15 risked no longer

Conformément à l'invention, le corps 1 est pourvu According to the invention, the body 1 is provided
de deux joues 18 et 19 comportant des trous 20 et 21 qui constituent des tourillons pour des axes 23 et 24 du volet 16. of two cheeks 18 and 19 comprising holes 20 and 21 which constitute pins for axes 23 and 24 of the flap 16.
Le volet, le corps, les axes et les tourillons sont moulés d'une seule pièce; toutefois, pour faciliter la mise en place des organes 3, on désire que le volet 16 s'étende dans le prolongement du corps. Afin que ledit vo25 let puisse être maintenu dans cette position, il est relié, d'une part, à la joue 18 par une patte 26 et, d'autre part, à la joue 19 par une patte 27. Ces pattes sont réalisées au moulage et présentent des parties amincies 28 et 29 respectivement qui peuvent être facilement brisées. 30 Ainsi, après la pose des organes 3, on fait basculer le volet 16 afin que les doigts 15 s'insèrent dans les fenêtres 14 et ledit volet étant verrouillé par des moyens prévus sur un rebord 30 coopère avec des moyens prévus sur une extrémité 31 du corps 1. On conçoit que le volet ainsi monté sur le corps pourra être manoeuvré un grand nombre de fois sans risque The shutter, the body, the axes and the pins are molded in one piece; however, to facilitate the installation of the members 3, it is desired that the flap 16 extends in the extension of the body. So that said vo25 let can be maintained in this position, it is connected, on the one hand, to the cheek 18 by a lug 26 and, on the other hand, to the cheek 19 by a lug 27. These lugs are made at molding and have thinned parts 28 and 29 respectively which can be easily broken. 30 Thus, after the installation of the members 3, the flap 16 is tilted so that the fingers 15 are inserted into the windows 14 and said flap being locked by means provided on a flange 30 cooperates with means provided on one end 31 of the body 1. It is understood that the flap thus mounted on the body can be operated a large number of times without risk
