  • Patent number: 11876328
    Abstract: An electrical plug has a pin arrangement including a pair of electrical power transmitting contacts separate from one another and a plurality of electrical signal transmitting contacts separate from each other. A pin arrangement transverse axis extends through a central point of the pin arrangement. A distance extending parallel to the pin arrangement transverse axis between a pair of longitudinal axes of the electrical power transmitting contacts is less than or equal to 6.1 mm. A maximum distance extending parallel to the pin arrangement transverse axis between a plurality of longitudinal axes of the electrical signal transmitting contacts that are furthest from each other along a direction parallel to the pin arrangement transverse axis is less than or equal to 6 mm.

  • Publication number: 20220278486
    Abstract: One aspect of the invention relates to a coupling half (1) for an electric plug (2), which is configured for coupling to a further coupling half (3) of the electric plug (1), comprising a housing (4) and comprising a contact carrier (7) for electric contacts, the contact carrier (7) being arranged in the housing (4), and comprising a sleeve (8), which is separate from the housing (4) and which is arranged on the housing (4) to be threadlessly rotatable, wherein the sleeve (8) forms a connector (8a) of the coupling half (1) for connecting to the further coupling half (3), wherein the sleeve (8) comprises an outer sleeve (9), which is threadlessly rotatably arranged on the housing (4), and the sleeve (8) comprises an inner sleeve (15), which is separate from the outer sleeve (9), wherein the inner sleeve (15) is arranged on the outer sleeve (9) and the inner sleeve (15) is movable in the direction of a longitudinal axis (A) of the coupling half (1) relative to the housing (4) and to the outer sleeve (9).

  • Publication number: 20220131307
    Abstract: An electrical plug includes a plug housing having a first plug housing section with a longitudinal axis and a friction brake device including a friction brake part arranged on an outer face of the first plug housing section. The friction brake part is exposed towards an outside in a radial direction to the longitudinal axis. The friction brake device provides a friction braking azimuthally around the longitudinal axis below a set torque threshold value for the electrical plug.
