Abstract

A connection device for electrically connecting contact pins, which protrude from an axial opening of a sleeve-type housing, with terminal pins of a plug connector, which are formed by the device, the connection device having a device body having an insertion section that axially engages the axial opening of the sleeve-type housing and comprises penetration openings for the penetration of the contact pins, and a locating face laterally offset and essentially tangential relative to the insertion section, wherein the locating face interacts with a corresponding locating face of the sleeve-type housing in an anti-rotational manner when the insertion section is inserted in the axial opening, wherein the locating face of the device body comprises inelastic and elastic areas which are tangentially opposite to each other in relation to the insertion section.
