Abstract
The invention relates to a plug arrangement, with a plug (1) that has a cylindrical wall (5) for electrically contacting a counterplug (2), such that the plug wall (5) is thin enough, relative to its length (1) in the direction of insertion, for it to be mounted in elastic fashion over the cylindrical wall (15) of the counterplug (2) or inserted into the cylindrical wall of the counterplug.
Description

An exemplary embodiment is next described in greater detail on the basis of the drawing, which shows:



FIG. 1 a perspective view of a plug and counterplug, in separated state



FIG. 2 the plug and counterplug in assembled state


Claims
  • 1. Plug (1) with a cylindrical wall (5) for electrically contacting the wall (15) of the counterplug (2), whereinonly a single slot (10) is formed in the cylindrical plug wall (5), which slot (10) runs back from the open plug end (3), and/or at least one embossed area (11) is formed in the cylindrical plug wall (5), which embossed area (11) protrudes toward the counterplug wall (15) when the unit is in assembled condition.
  • 2. Plug according to claim 1, whereinthe plug wall (5) is thin enough, relative to its length (1) in the direction of insertion, to be mounted in elastic fashion over the cylindrical wall (15) of the counterplug (2) or inserted into the cylindrical wall (15) of the counterplug (2).
  • 3. Plug according to claim 1, whereinthe cylindrical plug wall (5) is closed around the circumference of one open end (3) of said plug (5).
  • 4. Plug according to claim 1, whereinthe cylindrical plug wall (5) and/or the sections behind it are formed by deep-drawing.
  • 5. Plug according to claim 1, whereina wall thickness (d) of the cylindrical plug wall (5) is thin in design, at least in the direction of the open plug end (3), and has a thickness (d) less than 0.5 mm and particularly less than 0.25 mm, and the length (1) of the cylindrical plug wall (5) is greater than 5 mm in the direction parallel to its axis, and particularly greater than 7.5 mm.
  • 6. Counterplug (2) with a cylindrical wall (15) for insertion into or mounting onto the cylindrical plug wall (5) of a plug (1) according to claim 1, whereinthe cylindrical counterplug wall (15) is circumferentially sealed on its the open end (4).
  • 7. Counterplug according to claim 6, whereina circumferential groove (18) is applied to the counterplug wall (15) as a locking element for at least one embossed area (11) in the plug wall (5), which embossed area (11) protrudes toward the counterplug wall (15) when the unit is in assembled condition.
