Abstract

In a plug connection assembly for a moisture-protected electrical plug connection having at least one plug which has a main body ( 1 ) having a fastening flange ( 4 ) on the front side and a resilient sealing element ( 7 ) arranged on said flange and an electric line cable ( 2 ) emerging rearward from the main body ( 1 ), a contact carrier ( 5 ) which receives electric contacts ( 6 ) is inserted into the main body ( 1 ) in a form-fitting manner. The fastening flange ( 4 ) can have a rigid contact area ( 14 ) for contact with a socket ( 9 ), and the sealing element ( 7 ) can have a surface seal ( 17 ) and a raised molded seal ( 27 ) on a partial surface thereof.

Claims (15)

1. A plug connection assembly for a moisture-protected electrical plug connection comprising:

at least one plug that comprises a base body, said base body comprising a front-side fastening flange and an elastic sealing element arranged at said front-side fastening flange;

an electrical cable having a first end disposed in said base body and exiting from said base body through an exit area at a rear of said base body;

a contact carrier, provided with electrical contacts, received with positive fit in said base member;

wherein said fastening flange has a rigid contact area configured to rest against a socket of the plug connection assembly and wherein said sealing element has a flat seal and a raised shaped seal disposed on a partial surface of said flat seal, wherein said sealing element seals relative to the socket to protect the electrical plug connection from moisture when the at least one plug and the socket are connected.

2. The plug connection assembly according to claim 1 , wherein said sealing element is secured exchangeably on said base body.

3. The plug connection assembly according to claim 1 , wherein said contact carrier has at least one front-side opening for filling in a potting compound into a cavity of said base body.

4. The plug connection assembly according to claim 1 , wherein said at least one plug has a rearward seal disposed in said exit area at said rear of said base body.

5. The plug connection assembly according to claim 1 , wherein said contact carrier has at least one coding projection.

6. The plug connection assembly according to claim 1 , wherein said contact carrier has at least one coding recess.

7. The plug connection assembly according to claim 1 , wherein said contact carrier has at least one coding projection and at least one coding recess.

8. The plug connection assembly according to claim 1 , wherein said contact carrier has at least one guide projection for guiding said contact carrier on said base body during insertion into said base body.

9. The plug connection assembly according to claim 1 , wherein said base body has a defined stop and said contact carrier has a support flange resting against said defined stop.

10. The plug connection assembly according to claim 1 , comprising a distributor, wherein said distributor has at least three sockets for receiving said at least one plug.

11. The plug connection assembly according to claim 10 , wherein said at least three sockets are configured for receiving and transmitting electrical power or electrical control voltage.
