Abstract:
A multi-line plug connector for connecting two heated fluid lines by way of a single connecting operation, including a female plug component which is connected with a male plug component. Each plug component includes a fluid connection and two electrical connections. Each plug component also includes an inner space in which a spectacle component is housed. The spectacle component has two guide channels for receiving electrical lines equipped with electrical contacts. The guide channels are connected with one another by a bridge that is fastened with a latching mechanism that secures the spectacle component against displacement along and/or obliquely to the coupling axis. The spectacle component receives a tubular fluid connector, connected with the spectacle component with form-fit and/or friction-fit, whereby the tubular fluid connector can be connected on one end to the heated fluid line and on the opposite end the fluid connector.
