ABSTRACT:
The invention relates to a plug connector (1c) with a plug (11) which has a handle element (13) which has at least one snap-in unit (19) and one contact support (14) oriented in the plug-in direction (X), and with a bushing (12) whose handle element (40) forms a contact support holder (45) and an opposing snap-in means (44) corresponding to the snap-in means, said opposing snap-in means cooperates with the snap-in means to secure the plug and the bushing in the connected state, wherein the contact support (14) and the contact carrier holder (45) form mutually corresponding positioning means (23, 49) which allow insertion of the plug into the bushing only with the snap-in means facing the opposing snap-in means. The problem of the invention is to create a plug connector which improves in particular the blind insertion of plug and bushing and thus improves the ease of assembly. This problem is solved by a plug connector with the characterizing features, such that one of the positioning means of the plug or bushing has a guide section (27) which cooperates with an opposing guide section (57) of the bushing or plug, so that during the plugging process, both plug and bushing are forced to move relatively toward each other to attain the corresponding position of the positioning means (23, 49).
