  • Patent number: 10218112
    Abstract: An electrical plug connector, comprising an insulating plug connector housing and at least one electrical contact element accommodated in the plug connector housing is provided. The plug connector housing forms a plugging side and a connection side, wherein at least one contact opening extends through the plug connector housing from the plugging side to the connection side. An electrical contact element is accommodated in the contact opening and is fastened and retained in the contact opening. An additional cable fixing arrangement for fastening a connected cable is formed on the connection side of the electrical plug connector.

  • Patent number: 6422878
    Abstract: For the manufacture of a plug-type connector for surface-mounting on circuit boards, it is proposed that the required contact elements be provided with a constricted portion in a region between the plug-in contact end and the soldering-connection end, and that the contact elements introduced into the insulating casing of the plug-type connector be bent over, at the soldering-connection ends in the region of the constricted portion, by a first angle with the aid of a first tool, and be then bent further to almost 90° with the aid of a second tool, all the soldering-connection ends being aligned in a coplanar manner.

  • Patent number: 6193561
    Abstract: For an electrical plug connector with one-piece contact elements which are disposed in contact chambers and have spring legs with an embossed contour which are disposed in a mirror-inverted manner, it is proposed that the spring legs be constructed in such a way that they are at a distance from the contact chamber walls when the contact elements are inserted in the contact chambers, the spring legs being deflected in such a way, when a contact pin is inserted in the contact elements, that the said spring legs are supported on the contact chamber walls.
