Abstract: A retaining frame for retaining plug-connector modules and/or plug connectors for installation in a plug connector housing, has two side parts each with at least one surface and at least one frame element designed to be fitted together to form the retaining frame. The surfaces of the side parts, once joined together, form a fastening surface having at least one recess for receiving a plug connector. The frame elements of the side parts of the retaining frame, once joined together, are spaced apart from one another and form at least one receiving region for receiving the plug-connector modules. On the fastening surface, at least one fixing element is provided, which can be fixed there in such a way that the side parts joined together to form the retaining frame are fixed, and that a plug connector accommodated in the recess is also axially fixed in the retaining frame.

Abstract: The invention relates to an electric coupling element (1). Pin or socket contact elements (20), with which an electric means of a screwable connection means (28), are arranged in an electrically insulating main part (10). Openings (18) in the main part (10) are covered by means of a covering panel (30) I order to ensure the electric insulation of the individual contact elements (20). For assembly purposes, the covering panel (30) is movably attached to the main part (10) such that the covering panels (30, 30?) of two coupling elements (1, 1?) are mutually actuated when joined together.
