Abstract (en)

[origin: DE4216162A1] The mechanical locking system uses a pin projection (5) of one of the two parts (1,2) fitting into a corresp. opening (15) in the other part (2,1), with a locking nose (13) integral with the wall of the opening (15) for engaging a locking spring (9) provided by the pin projection (5). This spring (9) is released from the locking nose (13) upon its depression via an inserted screwdriver blade (21), with a projection (17) of the spring (9) fitting into a recess (8) provided by the pin projection (5), to allow the connection coupling to be released. The spring projection (17) can only be received in the recess (8) when the switch is in a given position.
