Abstract (en)

[origin: US2011045711A1] The invention relates to an electrical plug connector, in particular a banana plug, having a base body (2) and having a contact pin (3) which is arranged on the front face of the base body (2), with the base body (2) having a connecting cage (4) for holding a connecting cable and for making an electrically conductive connection to the contact pin (3). The invention is based on the object of providing a better plug connector. The plug connector is intended to have good characteristics for transmission of audio signals. A further aim is that it should be possible to produce the plug connector at low cost. In order to achieve this object, the invention proposes that the contact pin (3) comprise two or more contact segments (5) and be in the form of a metallic stamped and bent part, with at least one of the contact segments (5) being at least partially embedded in the base body (2), which is composed of plastic, and extending into the interior of the connecting cage (4).
