Patent ID: 6851985

Claim:
A connection device for an electronic box, comprising a connection module ( 3 ) intended to be coupled with the longitudinal mating face of a box ( 2 ) and making an electrical connection with, on the one hand, pins projecting from this longitudinal mating face and, on the other hand, with conducting cables, the module ( 3 ) and the box ( 2 ) being mated by a system of slides ( 7 , 8 ) allowing them to be fastened by longitudinal sliding, with locking by a resilient tab ( 10 , 29 , 32 ), the resilient tab ( 10 , 29 , 32 ) is associated with the box ( 2 ) and is intended to cooperate with a locking member ( 16 , 27 , 42 ) associated with the connection module ( 3 ), the resilient locking tab ( 10 ) is in the form of an elastically deformable hook ( 12 ) provided with a catching rib ( 13 ), while the locking member associated with the connection module has a groove ( 16 ) with which the rib ( 13 ) of the hook is intended to be engaged, in the locking position, wherein the connection module ( 3 ) includes, in its mating face for mating with the box, a recess ( 14 ) which, intended for housing the locking hook ( 12 ) on the box ( 2 ), is bounded on the inside of the module by a surface ( 17 ) which is inclined from the upper face of the module toward its lower face, and from the inside outward, the groove ( 16 ) for accommodating the rib of the hook being situated below this inclined surface ( 17 ) and wherein the hook ( 12 ) has, above its catching rib ( 13 ), a surface ( 11 ) that is inclined from the upper face of the box ( 2 ) toward its lower face, and from the inside outward.
