Abstract
An electrical plug connector for co-axial leads is disclosed comprising an inner contact with spring tongues to retain a core wire therebetween and an outer contact for connection to the sheath conductor. The latter may be brought into contact with claws situated at end of the outer contact from which the lead extends, by bending the claws radially inwards, this being accomplished by tightening a screw element situated on an outer sleeve of insulating material, while two coaxial insulating members within the outer contact are displaced axially with respect to each other so that thrust arms situated on one insulating member and co-operating with an inwardly tapering cam surface may be thrust against the spring tongues to allow these to grip fast the inner lead wire. A plug connector of particularly uncomplicated structure can be produced substantially automatically because the two insulating members are joined together interengagingly and because the one-piece outer contact consists of two cohesive shells surrounding the insulating members.
