Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

A plug connection having a first plug connector and a second plug connector, wherein the plug connectors each have at least two contact elements, wherein the contact elements of the first plug connector make contact with the contact elements of the second plug connector at contact points in the plug-connected state of the plug connection, such that the contact elements of the two plug connectors are designed in the form of contact lugs which project into a free space and can be elastically deflected.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

The invention claimed is: 1. A plug connection comprising a first plug connector and a second plug connector, wherein the plug connectors each have at least two contact elements, wherein the contact elements of the first plug connector make contact with the contact elements of the second plug connector at contact points in a plug-connected state of the plug connection, wherein the contact elements of the two plug connectors form contact lugs which project into free space and can be elastically deflected, of which a first contact lug of each contact element is part of an inner conductor and a second contact lug of each contact element is part of an outer conductor enclosing the inner conductor in a coaxial arrangement, wherein the contact lugs of the second plug connector are each contacted by several spring-loaded contact lugs of the first plug connector in a pincer-like manner. 2. The plug connection of claim 1 , wherein the contact lugs of the inner conductor are in each case enclosed by the contact lugs of the outer conductor. 3. The plug connection of claim 1 , wherein the contact lugs include stamped or stamped and bent components. 4. The plug connection of claim 1 , including insulating bodies arranged in each case between the outer conductors and inner conductors of the plug connector. 5. The plug connection of claim 4 , wherein the cross sections of the contact lugs formed by the inner conductors are larger than the cross sections of the sections of the inner conductor enclosed by the insulating bodies such that a substantially constant impedance results. 6. The plug connection of claim 4 , wherein the first plug connector and/or the second plug connector possesses a plurality of inner/outer conductor pairs, wherein the insulating body extends both between the inner conductor and outer conductor of the inner/outer conductor pairs as well as between the inner/outer conductor pairs themselves. 7. The plug connection of claim 6 , wherein the insulating body of at least one of the plug connectors forms a housing enclosing the contact lugs. 8. The plug connection of claim 1 , wherein the inner conductor and the outer conductor of at least one of the plug connectors form, at their ends opposite the contact lugs , contact regions for making contact with a circuit board. 9. The plug connection of claim 4 , wherein the insulating body of at least one plug connector forms a fastener for connection with a circuit board. 10. The plug connection of claim 2 , wherein the contact lugs include stamped or stamped and bent components. 11. The plug connection of claim 10 , including insulating bodies arranged in each case between the outer conductors and inner conductors of the plug connector. 12. The plug connection of claim 5 , wherein the first plug connector and/or the second plug connector possesses a plurality of inner/outer conductor pairs, wherein the insulating body extends both between the inner conductor and outer conductor of the inner/outer conductor pairs as well as between the inner/outer conductor pairs themselves. 13. The plug connection of claim 12 , wherein the insulating body of at least one of the plug connectors forms a housing enclosing the contact lugs. 14. The plug connection of claim 3 , wherein the inner conductor and the outer conductor of at least one of the plug connectors form, at their ends opposite the contact lugs, contact regions for making contact with a circuit board. 15. The plug connection of claim 13 , wherein the inner conductor and the outer conductor of at least one of the plug connectors form, at their ends opposite the contact lugs, contact regions for making contact with a circuit board. 16. The plug connection of claim 11 , wherein the insulating body of at least one plug connector forms a fastener for connection with a circuit board.
