Abstract
An electrical connection element for connecting supply lines, in particular in an aircraft. The connection element comprises a connector socket and a connector that can be inserted into the connector socket, wherein the connector is axially rotatable in the connector socket, as a result of which a non-positive connection between the connector and the connector socket is established. An independent solution provides for the connection element to be made in a single piece and to comprise two clamping receptacles for the ends of the supply lines to be connected.
Claims8
An electrical connection element for connecting supply lines, wherein the connection element comprises:
- a connector socket;
- and
- a connector
- wherein the connector and the connector socket comprise corresponding radially tapered contact surfaces,
- wherein each radially tapered contact surface tapers circumferential starting from a largest radial extension and continuously diminishing until a minimum radial extension is reached,
- wherein the connector is insertable into the connector socket,
- wherein the connector is axially rotatable in the connector socket, as a result of which a non-positive connection between the connector and the connector socket is established,
- and wherein the number of the radially tapered contact surfaces of the connector and the connector socket respectively is at least three.
Dependencies are inferred from the claim text.
