Patent ID: 7247033

Claim:
A plug connector for a circuit board connection possessing a plug strip ( 1 ) mounted on the circuit board and a plug part ( 5 ) that includes a socket housing ( 8 ) projecting on the plug side that possesses a generally rectangular cross section with longitudinal sides ( 9 , 10 ) opposite each other, and a face side ( 11 ) located between them, whereby insertion guide holes ( 12 ) with adjacent plug receptors for contact pins ( 4 ) are located on this face side ( 11 ), said pins being firmly positioned on the plug strip ( 1 ) with alignment matching the plug receptors and insertion guide holes ( 12 ), characterized in that the plug strip ( 1 ) is formed as an angle strip with a first strip shoulder ( 2 ) and a second strip shoulder ( 3 ) perpendicular to the first strip shoulder, and wherein the contact pins ( 4 ) are mounted either on the first or on the second strip shoulder ( 2 , 3 ), whereby engaging hooks ( 13 ) are present on each of the two strip shoulders ( 2 , 3 ) on an inner side of said first strip shoulder and said second strip shoulder ( 2 . 1 , 3 . 1 ) facing the plug part ( 5 ) that are mirror images with respect to an angle-bisecting plane of the plug strip ( 1 ), and engaging steps ( 14 ) are provided in the vicinity of the two longitudinal sides ( 9 , 10 ) of the socket housing ( 8 ) on the plug part ( 5 ) that are configured to be engaged by the engaging hook ( 13 ) of the plug strip and whose separation from the adjacent edges between the pertinent longitudinal side ( 9 , 10 ) and the face side ( 11 ) of the socket housing ( 8 ) or a theoretical edge line corresponding to the mirror-image positioning of the engaging hooks ( 13 ) is the same.
