CONNETTORE ELETTRICO, PARTICOLARMENTE PER LA RICARICA DEI VEICOLI ELETTRICI

An electrical connector has a casing provided with a front opening and adapted to receive at the rear a female contact body in which a plug inserted in the front opening can engage; the female contacts are protected by a pair of shutters that prevent access to the female contacts when the shutters are in the closed position; a locking mechanism controls the opening of the shutters and the locking of the plug when it is inserted in the female contact body; the locking mechanism has a locking frame adapted to lock and unlock the movement of the shutters; the locking frame moves transversely with respect to the direction of motion of the shutters and defines at least one locking position and at least one unlocked position; the locking frame prevents or allows the movement of the shutters respectively in said locking or unlocked position; each shutter has at least one locking button; each locking button defines an interference position which prevents the movement of the shutter with respect to the locking frame, and a noninterference position, which allows the movement of the shutter with respect to the locking frame; each locking button is made to pass from the interference position to the noninterference position by inserting the plug.
