Circular connector
First Claim
1. A circular connector with a first connector element and a second connector element that each have a first (2) or respectively second contact inset (4) in which, around the first contact inset (2) of the first connector element, a sleeve-shaped latch segment (7) is arranged from which, running along the longitudinal direction of the connector, resilient latch flanges (14) with latch tabs (16) are formed that are appropriate for locking onto a ring-shaped groove (24) formed on the inner side of the second connector element (locking position) and in which the first connector element includes an outer sleeve-shaped actuation slide (8), which can be slid back against a spring force along the longitudinal direction of the connector (unlocking position) and is appropriate for actuating one or more unlocking elements, which can be slid along the longitudinal direction of the connector under a section of the latch flanges (14) and are appropriate for supporting the latch flanges (14) (locking position), characterized in that the latch flanges (14) formed from the latch segment (7) with latch tabs (16) outside of the actuation slide (8) are bound to an end of the latch segment (7) away from the slide, that the locking element is formed as a sliding support (17) from an end of the actuation slide (8) directed toward the latch segment (7) and that the locking element extends out beneath a free end of one or more of the latch flanges (14) when the actuation slide (8) is pushed forward under the force of the spring.

Abstract
In a connector, a first connector element, in particular a plug, and a second connector element, in particular a socket or a housing adapter, have a first or second contact insets around the first contact inset of a plug, and a sleeve-shaped latch segment is arranged from which, running along the longitudinal direction of the connector, resilient latch flanges with latch tabs are formed that are appropriate for locking onto a ring-shaped groove formed on the inner side of the second connector element (locking position). The plug includes an outer sleeve-shaped actuation slid, which can be slid back against the spring force along the longitudinal direction of the connector (unlocking position) and is appropriate for actuating one or more unlocking elements, which can be slid along the longitudinal direction of the connector under a section of the latch flanges and are appropriate for supporting the latch flanges (locking position).
