ABSTRACT:
For the axial springing of the connector pin (1), the connector pin is held firmly in a receiving socket (3) which is connected via a spring element (6) with the actual connector body (2). The receiving socket, the spring element and at least a part of the connector body are integrally formed. Through suitable choice of material and shape, the spring element (4) obtains the required spring characteristics. By means of this design, the connector has only a few individual components and is easily assembled.
