Abstract
A plug connector having a plug body for holding the plug side of a socket body and having a resilient cage arranged on the plug body with resilient tongues which are axially slotted on the plug side, clasp the circumference of the socket body when it is mated with the plug body, and can be compressed radially by a locking sleeve which can be moved on the resilient cage. According to the invention, the resilient cage is itself arranged movably on the plug body and can be pushed back so far in the cable-side direction to a cleaning position that the plug-side end of the plug body is freely accessible.
Claims12
A plug-in connector comprising a plug member having a plug-in end to receive a socket member, and a resilient cage which is arranged on the plug member, said cage having resilient tongues slotted axially at the plug-in end and fit around the circumference of the socket member when said socket member is coupled to the plug member and compressed radially by a locking sleeve, said locking sleeve being displaceable on the resilient cage, the resilient cage being displaceable on the plug member and, starting from a coupled position in which the plug-in end of the plug member, arranged inside a receiving space formed by the resilient tongues of the resilient cage, shiftable back in the direction of the cable end, to a cleaning position, such that the plug-in end of the plug member is freely accessible.
