Abstract (en)

[origin: EP0405168A1] Interlocking clamps 2 are required for interlocking electrical plug devices, which interlocking clamps are of U-shaped construction, surround the bearing journals 5, which are integrally formed on the plug devices, with their U-limb 6 and are held together by spring force. In order to improve the previously known interlocking clamps 2 in such a manner that the interlocking clamps 2 reduce the assembly cost by means of a detachable snapping closure and at the same time permit a shift between an upper and lower housing part 1, 19, the invention proposes that the sprung snapping closure, formed from the clamp spring 3, has an omega-shaped clamp spring end 9 which guides the bearing journal 5 in the elongated hole 7 and partially surrounds it. <IMAGE>
