Abstract

Der beschriebene Leiterplatten-Nullkraftsteckverbinder ist ein Leiterplatten-Nullkraftsteckverbinder mit einem Betätigungs-Mechanismus, durch dessen Betätigung der Leiterplatten-Nullkraftsteckverbinder von einer das Einstecken oder Entfernen einer Leiterplatte gestattenden Montagestellung in eine die Leiterplatte ordnungsgemäß kontaktierende Verbindungsstellung und/oder umgekehrt bringbar ist. Der Leiterplatten-Nullkraftsteckverbinder zeichnet sich dadurch aus, daß ein Sperr-Mechanismus vorgesehen ist, durch welchen ein Betätigen des Betätigungs-Mechanismus unterbindbar ist, und/oder daß eine Signalisierungseinrichtung vorgesehen ist, durch welche ein die Stellung des Leiterplatten-Nullkraftsteckverbinders repräsentierendes Signal erzeugbar ist.

Figure 00000001
The described zero-force circuit board connector is a zero-force circuit board connector with an actuating mechanism, by the actuation of which the zero-force circuit board connector can be brought from an assembly position that allows the insertion or removal of a circuit board into a connection position that properly contacts the circuit board and / or vice versa. The circuit board zero-force connector is characterized in that a locking mechanism is provided, by means of which actuation of the actuating mechanism can be prevented, and / or that a signaling device is provided, by means of which a signal representing the position of the circuit board zero-force connector can be generated ,
