Claim Text:
1. A plug and socket device, comprising: at least one housing, and one base plate for accommodating the at least one housing; the housing comprises one base body and at least two locking means located thereon, the locking means in each case have one elongated locking arm and one locking hook, wherein the base plate has at least one locking nose corresponding to the locking means, and the locking nose is formed such that in a fully plugged-in position of the housing and the base plate, the locking hooks engage behind the locking nose such that a positive locking is established between the locking means and the locking nose, so that an unintentional detachment of the plug and socket device is made difficult, wherein the base plate in addition has at least one securing element, wherein the securing element is designed such that the securing element prevents the removal of the locking hook and thus in the fully plugged-in position serves to secure the position of the locking means, wherein the locking nose is designed such that during plugging together of the housing and the base plate the locking nose starting from a starting position causes an elastic deformation of the locking means in a first plane, so that the housing is plugged into the base plate against a resistance caused by said elastic deformation, wherein the securing element is formed such that the securing element in the fully plugged-in position prevents an elastic deformation of the locking means in the first plane, wherein the securing element is formed such that during the plugging together of the housing and the base plate the securing element causes an elastic deformation of the locking means in a second plane, which is perpendicular to the first plane, wherein the securing element starting from the base plate extends pyramidally in the direction of the housing such that during the plugging together of the housing and the base plate the locking means slide along on a side surface of the pyramidal securing element and are elastically deformed in the direction of the second plane.
