Abstract

An arrangement includes an insulator sleeve, a mounting sheath, an end piece of the insulator sleeve is received in a receptacle opening of the mounting sheath, and a holding pin penetrating the insulator sleeve and fixing the mounting sheath on the insulator sleeve in a non-displaceable manner in a length direction of the insulator sleeve.

Claims (21)

1. An arrangement, comprising:

an insulator sleeve;

a mounting sheath, an end piece of the insulator sleeve is received in a receptacle opening of the mounting sheath; and

a holding pin penetrating the insulator sleeve and fixing the mounting sheath on the insulator sleeve in a non-displaceable manner in a length direction of the insulator sleeve, the holding pin is formed with and part of the mounting sheath.

2. The arrangement of claim 1 , wherein the insulator sleeve has a through opening receiving the holding pin.

3. The arrangement of claim 1 , wherein the mounting sheath consists of two parts.

4. The arrangement of claim 1 wherein the holding pin is part of a first shell forming the mounting sheath and a pin end of the holding pin facing away from the first shell penetrates a second shell forming the mounting sheath.

5. The arrangement of claim 4 , wherein the mounting sheath has a latching device outside the receptacle opening latching the first shell to the second shell.

6. The arrangement of claim 1 , wherein the receptacle opening has a rectangular cross-section.

7. The arrangement of claim 1 , wherein the mounting sheath has a housing section for a contact element of an electrical conductor.

8. The arrangement of claim 1 , further comprising an electrical conductor.

9. The arrangement of claim 8 , wherein the insulator sleeve surrounds the electrical conductor.

10. The arrangement of claim 9 , wherein a positive-locking connection between the electrical conductor and the mounting sheath acts in a length direction of the electrical conductor.

11. The arrangement of claim 10 , wherein the electrical conductor has a contact element, the positive-locking connection occurs between the mounting sheath and the contact element.

12. The arrangement of claim 9 , wherein the insulator sleeve forms a contact protection for the electrical conductor with the mounting sheath.

13. The arrangement of claim 9 , wherein the electrical conductor is penetrated by the holding pin.

14. The arrangement of claim 9 , wherein at least two holding pins are provided in the receptacle opening.

15. The arrangement of claim 14 , wherein the electrical conductor has a predetermined cross-sectional geometry and is accommodated between the at least two holding pins in the receptacle opening.

16. The arrangement of claim 1 , further comprising a further insulator sleeve and a further mounting sheath attaching the further insulator sleeve to a further electrical conductor.

17. The arrangement of claim 16 , wherein the mounting sheath and the further mounting sheath are monolithically connected to one another.

18. The arrangement of claim 16 , wherein the mounting sheath and the further mounting sheath are formed by a first multiple shell and a second multiple shell.
