Electric component, in particular terminal block, comprising a socket for receiving a receiving component

An electrical component, comprising:

• at least one plug-in socket for accommodating an accommodated component, in particular a relay module or an optocoupler module, at least in a portion or partially in or on the electrical component,
• wherein the accommodated component comprises first electrical contact elements on its underside for being electrically connected to second electrical contact elements of the electrical component,
• wherein in an active position of the accommodated component in the plug-in socket the first electrical contact elements are electrically connected with the second electrical contact elements of the electrical component, and
• wherein the second electrical contact elements are arranged in a common contact plane, wherein the common contact plane extends vertically in a pull-out direction of the accommodated component and through the accommodated component;
• a manipulation means by means of which the accommodated component can be inserted into its active position in the plug-in socket, and/or pulled out of the active position,
• wherein the manipulation means has a spacing portion, and
• wherein the spacing portion has a free end;
• and
• an ejection device for releasing and/or at least partially ejecting the accommodated component from the active position,
• wherein the ejection device further comprises an actuation portion for actuating the ejection device by using a hand tool, wherein the manipulation means is integrally formed with the actuation portion of the ejection device,
• wherein the ejection device further comprises an ejection portion connected to the actuation portion for ejecting the accommodated component from the plug-in socket when the actuation portion is actuated, and
• wherein the ejection portion is adapted and arranged so as to engage the accommodated component in the common contact plane for ejecting the accommodated component from the active position in the plug-in socket.
