International ClassH01R 013/33Foreign Application Priority Data1994-06-29 DEAbstractThe invention relates to an electric plug connection (1) with a plug holder (7) and a pin (3), especially a round-section pin (3), in which the plug holder (7) has a holding compartment which is an axially compressible coil spring (2) having individual turns (5, 6) with the turns (5) largely having the same main diameter (dh). In order to reduce wear to the minimum even with frequent plug-in cycles and also not to increase the plugging force excessively, the invention proposes that the main diameter (dh) be larger than the outside diameter (d) of the pin (3) and that one or a few of the contact windings (6) have a smaller contact diameter than the main diameter (dh) and than the outside diameter (d) of the pin (3). | |
