Title:
ELECTRIC SOCKET
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO2007079513
Kind Code:
A8
Abstract:
Disclosed is a socket for alternatively establishing an electrical plug-in connection to a first plug (1), especially in the form of an XLR plug, or a second plug that is embodied in the form of a jack connector (7). Said socket comprises a locking arm (22) with a locking protrusion (23) which engages into a locking recess (6) in the housing (5) of the first plug (1) in the plugged state of the first plug (1), and an actuation unit (24) that keeps the locking protrusion (23) disengaged from the locking recess (6) of the first plug (1) in an active position. The inventive socket further comprises a locking mechanism for the jack connector (7), which is provided with a locking extension (37) and a blocking part (38). The locking extension engages into a constriction (12) of the contact tip (10) of the jack connector (7) in the plugged state of the jack connector (7) while the blocking part (38) is fitted with a contact surface (39) which rests against an opposite contact surface (40) of the socket in a blocked position of the blocking part (38). The actuation unit (24) allows a section of the blocking part (38) that adjoins the contact surface (39) to be moved into the plugging direction (14) while allowing the contact surface (39) of the blocking part (38) to disengage from the opposite contact surface (40).
