  • Publication number: 20060191699
    Abstract: The invention relates to a seal (5) for a cover (8a, 8b) for an electrical connecting socket (32), with the seal (5) having at least one sealing lip (10) which is provided to make contact with a contact surface (30) when the seal (5) is in the compressed state and thus to seal at least a part of that area of a base body (1) which is covered by the cover (8a, 8b), and wherein the sealing lip (10) has at least one first circumferential rim (25) on its inner face (15), which rim (25) is in each case formed, when the seal (5) is in the unloaded state, by the contact edge of a first (16) and of a second (17) surface element, which each run along the surface of the sealing lip (10), and has at least one second circumferential rim (26) which, when the seal (5) is in the unloaded state, is formed by the contact edge of the second (17) and of the third (18) surface element, which each run along the surface of the sealing lip (10), with the first circumferential rim (25) making contact with the contact surface (30) whe

  • Publication number: 20060191210
    Abstract: The invention relates to a seal for covers for inscription fields, comprising a cover element which is intended for insertion into a base body in the form of a holder, and at least one sealing element, which can be introduced into a space between the base body and the cover element and can be compressed by the base body and the cover element, so that it is possible to seal at least a part of the area which is covered by the cover element, in which case the profile of the sealing element is designed such that, in the compressed state, a sealing effect can be achieved in its cross section at at least three points on the profile.

  • Publication number: 20060160400
    Abstract: An electrical connector includes a connector housing and a printed circuit board with two sets of contact elements. The first set of contact elements is located on the front face of the printed circuit board and protrudes into an opening in the plug connector housing. The second set of contact elements is located on the rear face of the printed circuit board. The contact elements of the second set are configured to form insulation-displacement contacts. The plug connector also includes a cable manager which has a continuous opening and is configured on the front face with guides for cores or wires which are intended to make contact with the insulation-displacement contacts. The guides in the region of the insulation-displacement contacts are configured with recessed receiving elements or holders for the insulation-displacement contacts, and the cable manager can be latched to the plug connector housing.
