Abstract:
An electrical plug connector for establishing an electrical connection between two regions separated by a wall having a mounting hole, the electrical plug connector comprising:a first plug connector part having electrical plug contacts, the first plug connector part being located on one side of the wall and being inaccessible to be fastened to the one side of the wall; a guide sleeve having a longitudinal axis and a lower end and an upper end, wherein the lower end of the guide sleeve is passed at least partially through the mounting hole of the wall to be brought into contact with and bear the first plug connector part, and the upper end of the guide sleeve is operable to bear a second plug connector part having electrical contact jacks and being located on the other side of the wall; means for connecting the first plug connector part and the guide sleeve together such that the first plug connector part and the guide sleeve are aligned with each other along the longitudinal axis of the guide sleeve with the first plug connector part contacting the one side of the wall after the first plug connector part and the guide sleeve have been connected together, the connecting means being configured to connect the first plug connector part and the guide sleeve together such that rotation of the guide sleeve about the longitudinal axis of the guide sleeve with respect to the first plug connector part after the guide sleeve has been brought into contact with and bears the first plug connector part causes the first plug connector part to move axially towards the guide sleeve along the longitudinal axis of the guide sleeve and be brought into contact with the one side of the wall; means for holding the first plug connector part on the one side of the wall before the first plug connector part is connected with the guide sleeve such that the first plug connector part is aligned with the mounting hole of the wall and is movable in either direction along the longitudinal axis of the guide sleeve, the holding means including stop means for limiting the movement of the first plug connector part away from the guide sleeve to assist the means for connecting to connect the first plug connector part and the guide sleeve; and means for affixing the guide sleeve on the other side of the wall opposite the first plug connector part.
