Patent number: 11600955Abstract: A plug-in connector for a two- or multi-wire cable includes a male and female contact. The male and female contacts are configured to be coupled to first and second wires, respectively, and are elongated in a plug-in direction. A carrier element is configured to position and receive the male and female contacts in first and second receiving spaces, respectively, each at a predefined angle with respect to the plug-in direction, and to electrically insulate the male and female contacts from one another. A shielding element includes first and second channels for receiving the first and second wires, respectively. The channels each penetrate the shielding element from its end located counter to the plug-in direction to its end located in the plug-in direction. The shielding element comprises an electrically conducting material, and is arranged at an end of the carrier element located counter to the plug-in direction.Type: GrantFiled: September 10, 2021Date of Patent: March 7, 2023Assignee: MD ELEKTRONIK GMBHInventors: Josef Ohni, Thomas Halbig, Thomas Grasser

Patent number: 11404832Abstract: A connector assembly for connecting a cable to an electrical component includes a plug unit and a mating plug unit, which each have an outer conductor element, an insulator element and an inner conductor element. The insulator element is disposed within the outer conductor element and includes an inner conductor channel in which the inner conductor element is disposed. The insulator element of the plug unit forms a plug profile that extends around the inner conductor channel and has at least one projection and/or depression. The insulator element of the mating plug unit forms a mating plug profile that corresponds to a negative of the plug profile. The plug unit and the mating plug unit are connectable to one another in such a way that the plug profile and the mating plug profile rest against each other, at least in some areas.Type: GrantFiled: February 9, 2021Date of Patent: August 2, 2022Assignee: MD ELEKTRONIK GMBHInventors: Rudolf Wiebe, Johannes Eben, Stefan Sperr, Josef Ohni

Patent number: 11171456Abstract: An electrical connector for a multi-wire electrical cable includes at least two cable-side electrical contact elements, including associated terminals to each of which is to be connected a wire of the electrical cable, and at least two output-side electrical contact elements, from each of which projects an electrical connector element by which an electrical connection is establishable to a mating connector. A carrier body is disposed between the cable-side electrical contact elements and the output-side electrical contact elements. The cable-side electrical contact elements, the output-side electrical contact elements and the carrier body are disposed in a spaced-apart relationship to each other, and the cable-side and output-side contact elements are electrically connected to each other via an electrical device disposed on the carrier body.Type: GrantFiled: September 12, 2019Date of Patent: November 9, 2021Assignee: MD ELEKTRONIK GMBHInventors: Martin Huber, Josef Ohni
