The invention relates to a locking device (1) for a female connector part
for cooperation with an elongate, male connector part (30), said female
connector part being intended for use in a pacer housing. Said female connector
part comprises a longitudinal bore defining a longitudinal space for said locking
device. Said locking device comprises one or several tongues (19, 19)
being swingable between two positions, a first position in which the tips of the
tongues (19, 19) can engage said male elongate connector part (30)
and a second position in which the tips of the tongues (19, 19)
will not engage the male elongate connector part (30). Said tongues are
biased towards said first position by means of a spring force. A pivot (9)
is associated with each tongue and each tongue has a first part engaging said connector
means (30) and being located on one side of said pivot and a second part
being located on the other side of said pivot. Longitudinally acting means (4)
are provided to act on said second part of said tongues (19, 19)
for actuating said tongues from said first position against said bias to said second position.
