Definitions
- the invention relates to an angled connector, in particular an angled push-pull connector, and a method for assembling or putting together an angled connector.
- the invention is in the field of connector technology, in particular in the field of circular connectors.
- a subtype of these connectors are angled connectors, which are designed at an angle and can have an angle of, for example, 90° adjacent to a plug-in end of the connector, with which the connector is plugged into a complementary connector receptacle in the direction of a plug-in direction.
- These connectors therefore have an angle, which is why the plug-in end is arranged at an angle to the cable end of the connector.
- Angled connectors generally have more components than non-angled connectors. This makes the assembly of angled connectors particularly difficult. Furthermore, angled connectors are more susceptible to mechanical forces acting on the connector, which can impair the connection between the connector and a complementary connector receptacle.
- a coaxial cable connector which is provided with a connector body made of cylindrically shaped conductive metal and a cylindrical interlocking portion made of conductive metal.
- the interlocking portion is formed such that an opening side, which is the opposite side of the connector body, is tapered with the diameter widening toward the outer direction; and the opening side is capable of having its diameter shortened by the tapered portion is divided into several sections by a plurality of slots which are formed starting from the opening side and formed along the central axis of the interlocking section.
- the US 2019/393652 A1 further relates to an electrical plug with a plug housing, which has a first, at least partially metallic housing outer part and a separate second, at least partially metallic housing outer part, wherein the electrical plug has a protective conductor contact which is arranged in the plug housing, and a one-piece protective conductor connection element of the electrical plug which is separate from the protective conductor contact is arranged in the plug housing, wherein the protective conductor connection element is connected to the protective conductor contact, the first housing outer part and the second housing outer part in order to produce an electrically conductive connection.
- connection housing part advantageously allows the first connector section and the second connector section to be angled to one another at an angle predetermined by the connection housing part. Furthermore, the connection housing part connects the first connector section to the second connector section.
- the connection housing part can determine the angle between a longitudinal axis of the first connector section and a longitudinal axis of the second connector section, wherein the longitudinal axis of the first connector section runs essentially parallel to the insertion direction and the longitudinal axis of the second connector section runs essentially parallel to the cable routing direction.
- the longitudinal axis is understood to be the axis that corresponds to the direction of the greatest extent of the corresponding element, e.g. the first connector section or the second connector section.
- the longitudinal axes can each approximately form an axis of symmetry of the respective element.

- the cable within the second connector section is arranged substantially parallel to the cable guide direction.
- the longitudinal direction of the cable within the second connector section is substantially parallel to the cable guide direction.
- connection housing part has a first connection section that can be connected to the first connector section in a force-fitting manner.
- first connector section can thus be easily connected to the connection housing part and the connection housing part and the first connector section can be separated from one another without causing any damage.

- the connection housing part Before the first connector section is connected to the connection housing part in a force-fitting manner, it can be provided in particular that the connection housing part is first pushed onto the second connector section in the insertion direction. At the same time, the force-fitting connection of the first connector section to the connection housing part prevents the second connector section from being detached from the connection housing part.
- the first The first connector portion is arranged on the connection housing part such that the second connector portion is not detachable from the connection housing part. In other words, the first connector portion secures the second connector portion to the connection housing part.

Furthermore, the alignment elements are arranged in such a way that rotation of the first housing part relative to the connection housing part about the longitudinal axis of the first housing part is prevented.
- the insulating body can be arranged in a form-fitting manner in the circumferential direction of the first housing part; and/or the first housing part can be arranged in a form-fitting manner in the second housing part in the circumferential direction of the second housing part.
- the positive arrangement of the insulating body in the first housing part and the positive arrangement of the first housing part in the second housing part allows forces, which act in particular on the second connector section and transversely to the insertion direction, to be distributed to the elements of the first connector section, in particular on the insulating body, the first housing part and the second housing part.
- stress on the mechanical and/or electrical connection between the connector and the complementary connector receptacle can advantageously be reduced, which at the same time improves the electrical connection between the connector and the complementary connector receptacle or reliably implements this.

- the second housing part can have a second housing-part-side anti-twist element, in particular a projection or a recess, wherein in the assembled state of the connector, the second housing-part-side anti-twist element and the first housing-part-side anti-twist element engage with one another in such a way that the first housing part is arranged in the second housing part in a form-fitting manner in the circumferential direction of the second housing part.
- the second housing part and the first housing part are not movable relative to one another in the circumferential direction of the first housing part.
- a torque that acts on the insulating body and/or the first housing part and/or the second housing part can be transmitted to the other elements (the insulating body, the first housing part, or the second housing part), whereby the force is distributed over the insulating body, the first housing part, and the second housing part.

Furthermore, the resilient mounting of the securing element can move the securing element radially outwards, i.e. away from the longitudinal axis of the first housing part. Furthermore, when the connector is assembled, the securing element can limit the movement of the second housing element relative to the first housing element in the insertion direction.
