ABSTRACT:
The invention concerns connectors, more especially these, miniaturized or not, comprising a large number of contacts, with means, controlled by a locking ring, adapted to cause interpenetration of the contact pins into the corresponding sockets, after the two male and female parts have been suitably presented opposite one another by suitable grooves. According to said invention, means are provided which towards the end of the mechanical locking process, enable the contact pressure between pins and sockets to be increased, these means being for example manoeuvrable by complementary rotation in the mechanical locking ring. For example the sockets are designed so as to tend to be deformed, at rest, elastically towards a mininum pressure position, even nil pressure, and are each combined with a locking sleeve or the like adapted at the end of the relative insertion stroke of the pins, to tend to reclose said sockets to increase their contact pressure, the relative movement of said locking sleeve being obtained automatically at the end of the above-mentioned mechanical locking stroke.
