PLUG ELEMENT FOR CONNECTING SUPPLY LINES FOR VEHICLE PARTS

摘要

A plug element (1) for connecting supply lines of an articulated train with at least one line element (3) including a fluid contact (4) located in the housing (2) of said train, that is able to be brought into functional engagement with a second plug element (5). The plug element (1) remains in an operationally safe position without the pre-stressing force of a spring element (11a, 11b). The housing (2) of the plug element (1) can be moved laterally relative to a connection socket (6) that is fixed in space and the cross sectional area (AD1, AD2) for pressurization of the line element (3) is configured such that upon impingement with compressed air a force acts in the direction of insertion (8).
