Patent ID: 7901245

Claim:
An angle connector that is to be mounted on a unit housing and comprises a plug housing and a housing flange which partially extends over the plug housing, where the housing flange can be fastened in a rotationally fixed manner to the unit housing, and the plug housing is rotatably fastened to the housing flange and can be twisted, using rotational resistance, relative to the housing flange in order to define a direction of extension of the angle connector, wherein the plug housing is rotatably mounted on the housing flange by means of an elastic sleeve which has a cylindrical shape and is rotatably accommodated inside an annular front recess of the plug housing or housing flange and engages in a rotationally fixed manner with the respective associated housing flange or plug housing, where, in an area of overlap between the plug housing and the housing flange, the plug housing and the housing flange are positively interconnected in at least some sections in an axial and radial direction while being non-positively interconnected in a circumferential direction by means of the sleeve, wherein the annular front recess comprises a first circumferential surface and a second circumferential surface, wherein the second circumferential surface is part of the plug housing or the housing flange and encloses the first circumferential surface, said first circumferential surface having cams to deform the sleeve and wherein the sleeve rests in the annular front recess in a pre-tensioned state radially deformed in a wavy pattern by the cams and wherein the sleeve is dynamically elastically deformed in a radial direction during a rotary motion of the plug housing relative to the housing flange.
