ANGLE CONNECTOR FEATURING A VARIABLE DIRECTION OF EXTENSION

摘要

The invention relates to an angle connector (1) that is to be mounted on a unit housing and comprises a plug housing (3) and a housing flange (5) which partially extends over the plug housing and can be fastened in a rotationally fixed manner to the unit housing. The plug housing is rotatably fastened to the housing flange and can be twisted, using rotational resistance, relative to the housing flange in order to define the direction of extension. The plug housing of the disclosed angle connector is rotatably mounted on the housing flange by means of an elastic sleeve which is rotatably accommodated inside an annular front recess of the plug housing or housing flange and engages in a rotationally fixed manner with the respective associated housing flange or plug housing. In the area where the plug housing and the housing flange overlap, the plug housing and the housing flange are positively interconnected in at least some sections in an axial and radial direction while being non-positively interconnected in the circumferential direction by means of the sleeve.
