Publication number: 20250125553Abstract: A plug assembly having a clamping part, a clamping sleeve, and a housing. The clamping part receives and positions the cable plug at a front portion thereof and engages around a cable in a rear portion. There is a fixed connection between clamping part and sleeve, and the connection generates increasing radial compression on the rear portion of the clamping part to clamp the cable. The housing is pluggable into a complementary socket and receives and positions the clamping part in a latched position via a latching arrangement. The latching connection is releasable between the clamping part and housing by a tilting movement that results in a clamping part engagement element disengaging from a housing stop element. The housing can be pushed rearward along the cable, such that the cable plug and clamping part are no longer covered by the housing.Type: ApplicationFiled: November 29, 2023Publication date: April 17, 2025Applicant: Neutrik AGInventor: Oliver Dobler

Patent number: 12224514Abstract: An electrical plug connector has a housing, in which at least one insertion opening and at least one guide for a complementary plug connector with at least one electrical contact pin are arranged. At least one contact element that is elastically deflectable out of the path of the contact pin is mounted in the housing and at least partially protrudes into the insertion opening when the complementary plug connector is absent. The lateral edge of the contact element facing the contact pin, in its front section, encloses an acute angle with the path of the contact pin during the insertion when viewed in the direction of the deflection of the contact element. When the cable plug connector is fully inserted, a flat contact section of the contact element, adjoining the lateral edge, in the transverse direction abuts in contact with the contact pin.Type: GrantFiled: July 31, 2020Date of Patent: February 11, 2025Assignee: NEUTRIK AGInventor: Oliver Dobler
