  • Patent number: 12136788
    Abstract: A shielding spring contact includes a flat base portion having a top side and a cutout, and a shielding portion having a wall connected to the flat base portion and encircling the cutout. The wall has an outer side, an inner side, an upper side, and a lower side. The lower side of the wall is arranged on the top side of the flat base portion with the lower side of the wall laterally surrounding the cutout. The top side of the flat base portion bears against a bottom side of an assembly housing portion of a first plug-in connector and the shielding portion projects through a first passage opening in the assembly housing portion. The shielding portion projects through a second passage opening in a shielding housing wall and into a shielding housing of a second plug-in connector, bearing against the shielding housing wall.

  • Publication number: 20240336153
    Abstract: A high-current connector for an electric vehicle includes a housing, a screen housing and a high-current contact device. The housing surrounds a housing interior, in which the screen housing is arranged. The screen housing delimits a screen housing interior, in which the high-current contact device is arranged. The screen housing has a deep-drawn first screen housing shell and a first catch spring extending away from the screen housing interior and connected to the first screen housing shell without gaps. The housing has a projection at a side facing the housing interior. The first catch spring extends along a first axis and the projection is orientated inclined relative to the first axis. The first catch spring blocks, with a first catch face orientated inclined relative to the first axis, a movement of the screen housing along the first axis by the first catch face striking the projection.

  • Publication number: 20240030659
    Abstract: A shielding spring contact for an electrical plug-in connector for an electrical plug-in connector system includes a sleeve-shaped main body having a cylindrical base portion, a conical shielding portion, and a plurality of passage openings by which the shielding spring contact is arranged on a cable of the electrical plug-in connector. The shielding spring contact is connectable to a braid of the cable via the cylindrical base portion by a crimp connection. The conical shielding portion has a plurality of apertures extending along a longitudinal direction of the shielding spring contact and is elastically deformable. The shielding spring contact is contactable with an assembly housing of a cable shield connection of the plug-in connector system via the conical shielding portion. A current of the braid can be diverted to the assembly housing via contact between the conical shielding portion and the assembly housing.
