Definitions

  • the invention relates to a plug connection device comprising at least plug part and socket part, which are detachably connectable to one another and have a plug or socket insert received in the respective part, at least one of the inserts being designed for plug coding.
  • Such a connector device is from the DE 299 15 263 U1 known.
  • this includes a plug and a socket.
  • Within a housing of the socket is arranged between a turn-off and a closed position rotatably mounted socket insert. This can be rotated by means of plugged into the socket plug between its positions.
  • a locking device is further provided which is adjustably mounted between a blocking and a release position. This locking device has at least one coding projection, which can be arranged with plugged plug in a corresponding KodierausNeillung the plug.
  • a socket insert between off and on position is also rotatably mounted in a socket housing.
  • a pin-shaped locking device is adjustably mounted between a depressed blocking and a socket insert projecting release position. Only in the release position of the locking device of the socket insert between off and closed position is rotatable.
  • the pin-shaped locking device is formed from a removable locking part and a blocking part, which are arranged one above the other in the socket insert.
  • Another connector device is also off DE-A1-3744088 known.
  • the structure of the prior art connector devices is relatively expensive, since a plurality of parts are provided for plug coding in addition to the actual parts of the connector device. At the same time, this results in relatively high costs for such a connector device. Due to the large number of additional parts and their movements within the plug part or socket part there is also the possibility that one of the parts is limited by wear, damage, contamination or the like in his ability to move and therefore either the plug connection device is no longer applicable or possibly the plug coding is out of power.
  • the present invention seeks to improve a connector device of the type mentioned in such a way that with little constructional effort a secure plug coding without additional parts and without particular relative to the plug part or socket part movable parts in cost-effective manner is possible.

  • the counter-engagement elements can be arranged on a substantially sleeve-shaped position element which can be inserted in the interior of the respective part, in particular in a predetermined insertion position. That is, the corresponding rotational position of the insert results from the relative orientation to the sleeve-shaped positioning element and the engagement of engagement elements on the insert and counter-engagement elements on the positioning element.
  • the positioning element itself can be used in only one predetermined insertion position in the interior of the plug part or socket part.
  • the positioning element can be used relative to the associated part in different insertion positions is, so that the plug coding results in total by the relative positioning of insert to positioning and positioning element to part.
