Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

A system having a plurality of plug-in connectors each with a housing, the shape of the housings differing such that the housings have first housing parts which, at least in terms of the interface connections to second housing parts, are identical to the other components of the particular plug-in connector, and second housing parts having identical connecting means for connecting with the first housing part, and differ slightly in the external shape which serves to form a coding by which the individual positions of the individual plug-in connectors on or in the multiple housing are assigned.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

Thus, having described the invention, what is claimed is: 1. A multiple plug-in connector comprising: a plurality of plug-in connectors, each with a housing, the housings differing in shape; and a multiple housing fixing in place the plug-in connectors, wherein the housings of the plug-in connectors have first housing parts which are identical in shape and dimensions and differing second housing parts, the second housing parts of at least some of the plug-in connectors including different codings for assignment to individual positions on or in the multiple housing which are formed by recesses into which projections of the multiple housing engage. 2. The multiple plug-in connector of claim 1 , wherein the second housing parts have connections for connecting with the first housing parts, wherein the connections of the second housing parts are identical. 3. The multiple plug-in connector of claim 1 , including contact elements arranged in the first housing parts. 4. The multiple plug-in connector of claim 2 , including contact elements arranged in the first housing parts.
