  • Publication number: 20190173231
    Abstract: An electrical plug-in connection (1) for data transmission, including a plug (2) and a socket (3), the plug (2) has a plug housing (4) and a plug-in extension (5) which projects beyond the plug housing (4) and has electrical contacts (6), and the socket (3) has a socket housing (7) with a receiving channel (8) for the plug housing (4). A plug-in extension receptacle (9) with electrical mating contacts (10) is provided, and in a fully inserted state, the plug-in extension (5) is inserted into the plug-in extension receptacle (9) for connecting the electrical contacts (6) to the electrical mating contacts (10). The plug housing (4), at least in regions, is arranged within the receiving channel (8). The socket (3) has a locking device (11) for locking the plug housing (4) in the receiving channel (8) in the fully inserted state and an operating element (12), which projects beyond the socket housing (7), for releasing this locking arrangement.

  • Patent number: 8435080
    Abstract: A jack socket to produce a electrical plug connection with a jack plug includes housing (10) with a space, in which the plug shaft can be inserted; a sleeve contact (20) to contact the contact sleeve of the jack plug; a tip contact (30) with a contact section (32) which, in the inserted state of the jack plug, can be contacted from the contact tip and a tip switching contact (40) with a contact section (42), which, without the inserted jack plug, lies against a tip switching contact contact point of the contact section (32) of the tip contact (30) and is lifted off the contact section of the tip contact (30) during the insertion of the jack plug. The connecting sections (21, 31, 41 51, 61) of the contacts (20, 30, 40, 50, 60) project from an attachment end (14) of the plug housing (10) and have a longitudinal extension.
