Right-angle electrical connector has fixing screws used simultaneously for fixing cooperating angle arms of connector in their working positions

摘要

The electrical connector (1) has an insulating block (4) provided with electrical contacts (3) fitted in one angle arm (2) of the connector, the electrical leads connected to the contacts extending through a second angle arm (5) of the connector, for connection to a load or a current source lying at the rear of a housing wall to which the second angle arm is secured via fixing screws (6), simultaneously used for fixing the angle arms in their working positions. A plug-in section (9) of the first angle arm fits into an opening (8) in the second angle arm and has cut-outs (14) aligned with the bores (10) in the second angle arm for the fixing screws, for reception of the latter.
