According to the invention, the protective housing (1) has an inner housing (2) which is designed to accommodate the electrical connector (5), and an outer housing (3) which is designed to accommodate the inner housing (2), wherein the inner housing (2) and the outer housing (3) are designed to permit a movement of the inner housing (2) within the outer housing (3) exclusively along a defined trajectory and to therefore bring the inner housing from an initial position to a connecting position.
Claims8
A protective housing for an electrical connector, having
- an inner housing configured to accommodate the electrical connector and
- an outer housing configured to accommodate the inner housing, wherein the inner housing and the outer housing are configured to allow a movement of the inner housing within the outer housing exclusively along a defined trajectory for transferring the inner housing from an initial position to a connecting position, the trajectory aligned with a direction of an electrical terminal engaged by the connector;
- the outer housing having at least one sliding track configured to define the trajectory of the inner housing within the outer housing, and the inner housing has at least one guide element configured to be guided in the at least one sliding track of the outer housing;
- the sliding track having a recess for defining a nonlinear trajectory between the initial position and the connecting position for engaging the electrical terminal.
