Patent number: 6682361Abstract: Locking slides of plug connections are retained in the closed position by one or more hooks. In addition, the same detent hook, with the cooperation of a stop element, prevents the locking slide from falling out of plug part. To ensure reliable functioning of the locking slide, even over longer periods of time, a locking slide is configured with two detent hooks, one detent hook being arranged on the one side of the plug part and the other detent hook being arranged on the other side of the plug part. One detent hook is provided exclusively for the latching in the closed position, and the other detent hook is provided exclusively for the cooperation with a stop element.Type: GrantFiled: July 18, 2001Date of Patent: January 27, 2004Assignee: Robert Bosch GmbHInventor: Peter Zweigle

Patent number: 6666731Abstract: A cable harness plug for establishing an electric connection to a plug strip. The cable harness plug includes a housing, contact elements arranged in the housing and at least one lock. The cable harness plug includes at least two different types of contacts, and a lock is assigned to each type of contact. A lock includes at least one locking plate covering at least one area of one type of contact and includes a locking element which, by insertion into cable harness plug, converts locking plate to the locked position in the one area of type of contact and at the same time activates the lock which is assigned to the other types of contacts. This allows for production of secondary lock for different types of contacts of a cable harness plug simultaneously by using a single locking element.Type: GrantFiled: July 19, 2002Date of Patent: December 23, 2003Assignee: Robert Bosch GmbHInventors: Peter Zweigle, Markus Lux

Patent number: 6547581Abstract: A protective device for a multipoint connector, which contains at least one contact element in a base that is in the form of a housing, the contact element being accessible through an opening in the base, and being connectable to a plug connector; the protective device being made of a protective element, which can be transferred from a protective position preventing the coupling, into a mounting position rendering the coupling possible; and the protective device being designed in such a manner, that it can be manufactured very inexpensively, and is very easy to handle or remove. To this end, the protective element is made of a foil, which can be applied directly to the rim of the base opening, in a detachable manner.Type: GrantFiled: March 22, 2001Date of Patent: April 15, 2003Assignee: Robert Bosch GmbHInventors: Peter Zweigle, Markus Lux

Patent number: 6540547Abstract: A cable harness plug is described, including a housing part for accommodating the contact carriers and a cover, a securing device being provided for securing a cable harness leading to the contact elements on the cable harness plug, and the cable harness being arranged inside a cable protection device provided on the cable harness plug. The securing device includes a retaining strap which forms one piece with the cable protection device. This makes it possible to arrange a cable harness directly on the cable harness plug in a vibration-proof mount and to protect it from mechanical damage at the transition from the cable protection device to the cable harness plug.Type: GrantFiled: July 23, 2001Date of Patent: April 1, 2003Assignee: Robert Bosch GmbHInventor: Peter Zweigle

Patent number: 5980280Abstract: A fastening device for a plug connector part of an electric plug connection including receptacle chambers for assembly with contact elements and a slide that facilitates the application of joining and separating forces of the electric plug connection are provided in a contact carrier on the plug connector part. The fastening device, which may be a retention clamp, can be secured by a catch connection to a casing of the plug connector part. The fastening device brings switch elements of the plug connector part out of a position in which they overlap with respective receptacle chambers and secures the slide in an open position for subsequent coupling with a mating connector. When the plug connector part is delivered to an assembly plant, all the receptacle chambers can be assembled directly with contact elements and the plug connector part can be coupled with the mating connector by removing the fastening device.Type: GrantFiled: October 29, 1997Date of Patent: November 9, 1999Assignee: Robert Bosch GmbHInventor: Peter Zweigle
