Female socket with plural terminals

Abstract

Abstract 1. Female connector plug (1) having multiple terminals of the type of those which possess, for example, a plurality of seatings or sockets (2) disposed in a circular arrangement coinciding diametrally with a circular arrangement of the pins (3) of a multiple male connector plug (4) intended for engaging into said female plug, on which plugs there exists a first codification phase determined by a cylindrical, axial projection (7) equipped with a spline (8) coinciding with the centre of the multiple male plug, the projection and the spline being intended for engaging respectively into a complementary orifice (5) and into a groove (6) of the female plug, thus establishing a unique relative positioning between the two elements which defines a correspondence of terminals for them, a complementary code being obtained by means of a key (12) adapted to be introduced into one of the corresponding seatings (9) of the female plug, the male plug (4) being provided with a member (13) complementary to the key (12), characterized in that the seatings (9) are formed around the complementary orifice (5) of the female plug, between said orifice and the sockets (2) which receive the pins (3) of the male plug (4), the number of said complementary code seatings being substantially equal to that of the sockets, in such a manner as to determine a unique positioning and unique coupling between the female plug and the male plug.
