Abstract: A housing includes a first partial housing and a second partial housing which complement each other in an assembled state to form the housing. The first partial housing has a first conductor receptacle that receives a first electrical conductor and a first connection assembly for connecting the first electrical conductor to a first contact element, and is provided with a passage opening for a second contact element. The second partial housing has a second conductor receptacle that receives a second electrical conductor and a second connection assembly for connecting the second electrical conductor to the second contact element. The second partial housing is configured to abut against the first partial housing in the region of the passage opening. In the assembled state, the second conductor receptacle forms a common cavity with the passage opening.

Abstract: A plug cover hinge of a charging connection of an electric vehicle includes a cover or cover flap for selectively covering a socket or plug of the charging connection, and a four-joint hinge. The four-joint hinge defines two flap-side joints attached to the cover flap, and two fastening-side joints attachable to a frame. The four-joint hinge includes two joint elements, with each joint element connecting one of the flap-side joints to one of the fastening-side joints.

Abstract: A high-voltage connector protective flap device for an electrical high-voltage connector, in particular a high-voltage charging connector for a vehicle having an electric traction motor or a charging station, having a holder, an actuator, and a protective flap, wherein the protective flap is configured to be pivotable between a closed position and an open position of the protective flap device on the holder to open and close a mating face of the high-voltage connector, and the protective flap device is designed such that the protective flap is pivotable as intended electromechanically by the actuator and furthermore the protective flap can alternatively be pivoted as intended manually.

Abstract: A housing cap for closing an opening of a housing part includes a cover section covering the opening, a stop projecting away from the cover section, and a fastening element affixing the housing cap to the opening.

Abstract: Shown is an assembly or securing a printed circuit board to a plug body, having a contact element with a holding face facing against a plugging direction of the contact element, and a securing member, that can be transferred into a securing position, in which the printed circuit board is secured by the securing member in a positive fit manner against the plug direction at the holding face. Further shown is a method of securing a printed circuit board at the plug body, wherein a holding face of a contact element facing against a plug direction is inserted through an opening in the printed circuit board and subsequently a securing member is transferred to a securing position, in which the printed circuit board is secured by the securing member in a positive fit manner against the plug direction at the holding face.

Abstract: A seal for an electrical plug connector includes a passage opening receiving a contact element, a contact sealing section extending along the passage opening in a sleeve-shaped manner, and a creepage distance increase section disposed opposite the contact sealing section. The creepage distance increase section continues the passage opening in a tubular manner and/or extends away from the passage opening in a plate-shaped manner.

Abstract: A plug socket includes a recess receiving a charging plug in a plug-in direction and a locking element movable from a plug-in position into a blocking position. The recess terminates in an insertion opening in the plug-in direction and has an undercut acting in the plug-in direction to latch a latching element of the charging plug. The locking element in the plug-in position is located in the recess and overlaps the undercut transverse to the plug-in direction. The blocking position is spaced apart from the plug-in position in the plug-in direction and the locking element is located closer to the insertion opening in the blocking position than in the plug-in position.

Abstract: A drive element for an electrical connector comprises a gear wheel and an overload coupler. The overload coupler is between the gear wheel and a hub.
