Patent ID: 7950942

Claim:
A plug connection between electrical components or electronic components, comprising: electrical plug contacts of a plug arranged directly adjacently to one component inserted into a socket arranged directly adjacently to another component; a connection arrangement to interlock the components with one another or to combine the components to form an assembly; and a separate plug connection securing arrangement, which is independent of the connection arrangement of the components, secures the plug connection against movements of the plug relative to the socket and vice versa, wherein at least one of the following is satisfied: (i) the plug is held at the one component, and (ii) the socket is held at the other component via an elastic body so that the latter is deformable due to forces which occur at least one of during the production and during the securing of the plug connection by the plug connection securing arrangement wherein the elastic body is elastically deformable at least in parallel with a plug-in direction of the plug into the socket, and wherein the elastic body contains at least one of a circuit board which is flexible perpendicularly to the plane of the circuit board, a lead frame which is flexible perpendicularly to the plane of the lead frame, and a cable tree which is arranged inside one of the components.
