Abstract
A device for protecting contact elements of a connector having two ends, made up of an inner and outer disk mounted to support cylinders placed in front of the contact face of each end, and pierced with openings. The openings on the outer disk are normally masked by the inner disk, and are open to the contact elements only at the time of connection, under the action of a circumferentially disposed control ring, carrying a lug working with grooves on the support cylinders. The applications of the invention are particularly in the fields of television cameras and oil prospecting.
