Plug connecting element for a motor vehicle and method for producing a plug connecting element of this type
View Patent ↗A plug connecting element for a motor vehicle includes an electrical conduction element, to which at least one plug of an electronic component of the motor vehicle is able to be connected, and a casing element made of plastic, by way of which the conduction element is at least partially electrically insulated. The electrical conduction element is connected to the casing element in a fixed and non-releasable manner by primary forming of the plastic.
1. A plug connecting element of a motor vehicle, comprising:
at least one electrical conducting element to which at least one plug of an electric component of the motor vehicle is connectable;
a casing element made of plastic, by which the electrical conducting element is electrically insulated, wherein
the electrical conducting element is connected to the casing element fixedly and non-detachably through primary forming of the plastic; and
a connecting element fixedly held in the casing element and in contact with the electrical conducting element, via which the electrical conducting element and a ground point of the motor vehicle are brought into electrically conductive contact with one another, wherein the connecting element is cut from the casing element at least at a head bearing surface for a fastening element.
2. The plug connecting element according to claim 1 , further comprising:
at least one plug socket formed integrally along with the casing element, into which plug socket the plug of the electronic component of the motor vehicle is insertable and, when inserted, held detachably therein.
3. The plug connecting element according to claim 2 , further comprising:
at least one sealing element provided between the plug socket and the plug.
4. The plug connecting element according to claim 1 , wherein
the electrical conducting element has a contact region cut from the casing element.
5. The plug connecting element according to claim 1 , wherein
the connecting element has a fastening mechanism via which the connecting element is held in the casing element in a positionally-fixed manner.
6. The plug connecting element according to claim 1 , wherein
the casing element has a holding region, via which the plug connecting element is held in a positionally-fixed manner at a holding element on a vehicle side which corresponds to the holding region.
7. A method for producing a plug connecting element for of a motor vehicle having an electrical conducting element to which at least one plug of an electric component of the motor vehicle is connectable, the method comprising:
connecting a casing element to the electrical conducting element, the casing element being made of plastic so as to electrically insulate the electrical conducting element, wherein
the connecting of the electrical conducting element to the casing element is carried out through primary forming of the plastic such that the electrical conducting element is connected to the casing element fixedly and non-detachably and such that a connecting element is fixedly held in the casing element and is in contact with the electrical conducting element, wherein the connecting element is cut from the casing element at least at a head bearing surface for a fastening element.
