Abstract

A plug-in connector part for plug-in connection to a mating plug-in connector part includes: a housing part comprising a first material; at least one plug-in element, arranged on the housing part, for electrically contacting the mating plug-in connector part; and an attachment part, which is attached to the housing part, being detachably connected to the housing part, the attachment part having at least one plug-in portion having an opening in which the at least one plug-in element is arranged, the attachment part comprising a second material that is different from the first material.

Claims (18)

1. A plug-in connector part for plug-in connection to a mating plug-in connector part, comprising:

a housing part comprising a first material;

at least one plug-in element arranged on the housing part and configured to electrically contact the mating plug-in connector part; and

an attachment part detachably connected to the housing part, the attachment part having at least one plug-in portion having an opening in which the at least one plug-in element is arranged, the attachment part comprising a second material that is different from the first material,

wherein the plug-in connector part comprises a charging plug for charging an electric vehicle,

wherein the plug-in connector part has a housing body to which the housing part is attached,

wherein the housing part has an edge that is sealed in relation to the housing body for a moisture-tight transition between the housing part and the housing body, and

wherein sealing of the housing body takes place solely by the housing part.

2. The plug-in connector part according to claim 1 , wherein the housing part is comprised of plastics material.

3. The plug-in connector part according to claim 1 , wherein the attachment part is comprised of metal.

4. The plug-in connector part according to claim 3 , wherein the attachment part is comprised of die-cast metal.

5. The plug-in connector part according to claim 1 , wherein the attachment part has a planar portion that rests against an associated planar portion of the housing part and from which the at least one plug-in portion projects.

6. The plug-in connector part according to claim 1 , wherein the attachment part has at least one form-fit element that form-fittingly engages with an associated mating form-fit element of the housing part such that the attachment part is secured so as not to rotate relative to the housing part about an insertion direction in which the plug-in connector part is connectable to the mating plug-in connector part.

7. The plug-in connector part according to claim 6 , wherein the at least one form-fit element of the attachment part comprises a pin that engages with an associated mating form-fit element of the housing part comprising an opening.

8. The plug-in connector part according to claim 1 , wherein the attachment part has an engagement element that engages with a mating element of the housing part.

9. The plug-in connector part according to claim 8 , wherein the engagement element has an opening through which a fastening element engages so as to fasten the attachment part to the housing part.

10. The plug-in connector part according to claim 2 , wherein the plastics material comprises a thermoplastic material.

11. The plug-in connector part according to claim 4 , wherein the die-cast metal comprises die-cast aluminum.
