Multipolar connector
A connector comprising a cylindrically shaped socket and a plug that may be connected to the socket in a removable manner, in which a plurality of contacts are disposed being mounted in a contact block. It comprises a ring with ogive shaped parts ( 21 ) assembled in a membrane ( 22 ), the ogive shaped parts and the membrane being covered by a locking spring ( 25 ).
1. A module for a connector, the module comprising:
a mounting ring;
a flexible membrane having a circular shape operatively attached to the mounting ring;
a plurality of ogive-shaped parts arranged to traverse the flexible membrane;
a locking spring that at least partially covers the ogive-shaped parts and the flexible membrane, the locking spring configured to compress the flexible membrane to deform the flexible membrane to provide for fluid-tightness around the ogive-shaped parts and in the mounting ring.
2. The module according to claim 1 , wherein the plurality of ogive-shaped parts include at least three ogive shaped parts, the ogive-shaped parts symmetrically distributed around the flexible membrane.
3. The module according to claim 1 , wherein the locking spring includes a plurality of moving parts, the flexible membrane being compressed by the plurality of moving parts.
4. The module according to claim 3 , wherein a compression force of the locking spring is determined by the plurality of moving parts.
5. The module according to claim 3 , wherein the plurality of moving parts are configured to determine the compression force to the flexible membrane.
6. The module according to claim 3 , wherein the plurality of moving parts have a predetermined size, shape and/or prestressing to obtain the compression force.
7. A connector part comprising at least a module according to claim 1 .
8. The connector part according to claim 7 , wherein the connector part includes a plug or a socket.
9. The connector part according to claim 7 , wherein the connector part includes an angled plug.
10. A connector comprising a plug and a socket, the plug or the socket having a connector part as claims in claim 7 .
11. The connector according to claim 10 , wherein the plug and the socket are configured to allow for a rotation relative to each other.
12. The connector according to claim 10 , wherein the plug is configured to be connected according to a limited number of orientations relative to the socket.
13. The connector according to claim 10 , wherein one of either the plug or the socket includes a plurality of contacts and the other one includes a plurality of concentrically disposed circular conductive tracks.
14. The connector according to claim 10 , further comprising:
a locking system configured to allow a rotation of the plug to be blocked or limited relative to the socket.
