Abstract: A modular housing assembly for an electrical connector connectable to a plug fuse includes a surrounding housing and an inner housing that receives a contact element plugged to the plug fuse and has an insertion opening through which one of the fuse contacts of the plug fuse can be plugged. The surrounding housing includes a module chamber receiving the inner housing and an access opening leading into the module chamber that passes through a housing wall and is sized to receive the fuse body of the plug fuse along the material thickness of the housing wall. The fuse contact coming from outside can better reach the internally disposed contact element. An electrical connector is provided with such a housing assembly and a contact element.

Abstract: A plug connector pluggable together with a counter connector includes a connector housing having a guiding member and a lever device. The lever device has a lever transferrable from a plug position to a securing position, a coupling that is movable by the lever to engage the counter connector, and a lever extension attached to the lever and extendable and/or retractable with respect to the lever. A swivel movement of the lever out of the securing position is blocked by the lever extension retracted with respect to the lever. The guiding member blocks a shifting of the lever extension if the lever is moved out of the plug position and is not in the securing position.

Abstract: A housing assembly for a connector includes a securing mechanism for securing the connector to a mating connector in a securing position, and a locking mechanism. The locking mechanism in a locking position locks the securing mechanism in the securing position. The locking mechanism is latchable in a holding position in which the securing mechanism can be moved out of the securing position.

Abstract: A ribbon cable connector for attachment to an end of a ribbon cable comprises a plurality of contact element receptacles adapted to receive a plurality of contact elements. A pair of adjacent contact element receptacles is separated from one another.

Abstract: A system combination includes a particle beam system and a light-optical system. The particle beam system can be an individual particle beam system or a multiple particle beam system. A light entry mechanism can provided at a branching site of a beam tube arrangement within a beam switch. A light beam of the light-optical system can enter into the beam tube arrangement through the light entry mechanism such that the light beam impinges, in substantially collinear fashion with particle radiation, on an object to be inspected. Parts of the light-optical beam path and parts of the particle-optical beam path can extend parallel to one another or overlap with one another. This arrangement can allow light of the light-optical system to be incident in perpendicular fashion on an object to be inspected, optionally without impairing the particle-optical resolution of the particle beam system.

Abstract: The invention relates to a contact element, made of an electrically conductive contact material. In order to provide a contact element which can be passed repeatedly and non-destructively through a housing or a seal of a plug connector in and/or opposite to a direction of insertion (E), a contact element is provided comprising a body extending in the direction of insertion (E) and a position securing element disposed on an upper side of the body, projecting upwards out of an opening in the body transversely to the direction of insertion (E), and that can be deflected elastically, the position securing element having a slope surface that is inclined against the direction of insertion (E), adjoining which, without any kinks or edges, are a curved section and an end section, and the end section ending with a free end within the cubature of the body.
