Abstract

Claims (24)

1. An assembly of a plug-in connector part, comprising:

a holding frame which has a receiving space configured to receive at least one contact insert and which has at least one flange section;

a housing part which has a receiving opening into which the holding frame is insertable in an insertion direction, and which has at least one support section formed in the receiving opening;

at least one locking element which is arranged on the holding frame, the at least one locking element, in an inserted position, being in engagement with the housing part to lock the holding frame on the housing part; and

at least one spring element which is arranged on the at least one flange section and which, to form an electrical contacting between the holding frame and the housing part, is configured to rest on the at least one support section in the inserted position and to be brought into a tensioned state.

2. The assembly of claim 1 , wherein the at least one spring element has a free end section which, in a relaxed state of the at least one spring element, extends at an angle of 10°≤α≤40° relative to the flange section.

3. The assembly of claim 1 , wherein the at least one spring element comprises an S-shaped curve.

4. The assembly of claim 1 , wherein the at least one spring element comprises a stamped bent part.

5. The assembly of claim 1 , wherein the at least one spring element comprises a spring-elastic, electrically conductive material.

6. The assembly of claim 1 , wherein the at least one spring element is fastened to the flange section by a latch connection.

7. The assembly of claim 1 , wherein at least one recess is formed in the housing part, into which in the inserted position the locking element is configured to engage at least in regions.

8. The assembly of claim 1 , wherein the at least one locking element has a tool receiving region configured to bring the at least one locking element from a locked position into an unlocked position.

9. The assembly of claim 1 , wherein the at least one locking element comprises a wire body.

10. The assembly of claim 1 , wherein the at least one locking element comprises a sheet metal strip.

11. The assembly of claim 1 , wherein the at least one locking element comprises a displaceably mounted latching element and an actuating lever, and

wherein the latching element is configured to be brought into a locked position and into an unlocked position by the actuating lever.

12. The assembly of claim 1 , wherein the at least one locking element and the at least one spring element comprise components that are separate from one another.

13. The assembly of claim 1 , wherein the at least one locking element and the at least one spring element each comprise a single-piece component.

14. An electronic device, comprising:

at least one assembly of claim 1 .

15. An electronic device, comprising:

at least one plug-in connector part of claim 1 .

16. The assembly of claim 1 , wherein the at least one spring element has a first end and a second end opposite the first end, wherein the first end bears against the at least one flange section, and wherein the second end is a free end that abuts against the at least one support section in the inserted position.

17. The assembly of claim 16 , wherein, in the inserted position, the second end is arranged between the at least one flange section and the at least one support section in the insertion direction.
