  • Patent number: 6457872
    Abstract: OWG plug connector for a mechanically releasable connection between at least one OWG connector pair. The OWG plug connector has a connector having a first housing with at least one first chamber for accommodating a first OWG connector. The first chamber has a hole at one end. A mating connector is provided which is complementary to the connector and has at least one second chamber for accommodating a second OWG connector. At least two opposite walls of the second chamber are designed as latching arms. The two OWG connectors have end pieces bounded by exit faces. The first OWG connector is mounted without play in the first chamber. The exit face of the first OWG connector is arranged in the hole of the first chamber. The second OWG connector is seated with longitudinal play in the second chamber with the latching arms pressing, by means of latching lugs, the second OWG connector against a second stop of the second chamber.

  • Patent number: 6232555
    Abstract: A crimp connection between a flexible flat contact part (1) and a crimping ferrule (2) enclosing this contact part (1), wherein the crimp connection is characterized in that the crimping ferrule (2) has a base (3) and two side plates (4a, 4b) adjoining the base on opposite sides. The base (3) has at least one groove (6) towards the interior of the ferrule and transversely to the longitudinal ferrule axis (5), and ribs (7) arranged at the free ends of the side plates (4a, 4b). The ribs at the free end are disposed in such a way that, after crimping has taken place and with the side plates (4a, 4b) rolled in towards the interior of the ferrule, the said ribs press the flexible contact part (1) into the corresponding groove (6) and engage with the said part essentially positively into the corresponding groove (6).
