Abstract
A bayonet type locking ring of a circular electrical connector. A first piece with the shape of a cylindrical ring extends from one end to the other. The first piece is made of thermoplastic material, and includes notches distributed over the internal face of the first piece adjacent to one end and a first ramp part on the internal face of the first piece. A second piece with the shape of a cylindrical ring, and includes notches distributed over its external face and a second ramp part on the internal cylindrical surface.
