Type-2 plug wall holder with lock

Hello everyone !!

I present a holder for a Type-2 charging plug designed for electric vehicles.

The idea came from frustration with most available holders that rely on bending the cable in just the right way to keep the plug in place. My design uses a simple locking mechanism that prevents the plug from sliding out of the holder.

To remove the plug, you simply release the lock.
When inserting the plug, you don’t need to release the lock — the mechanism automatically engages once the plug is fully seated.

The only additional component required is a spring with a 5 mm diameter and a length of 10–15 mm.

See how it works:

Assembly:

Hope you'll like it, if you have any suggestions, let me know :)

Print all the parts, clear supports
insert locking mechanism as shown in picture
slide lock all in, you may want to use some tool for this as it has tight fit
insert spring, it should lock itself from both sides, check if mechanism is working up and down
insert lever, it should slide into locking mechanism
lock it with round pin (you can also use M3 screw for that)
slide lever cap (it has lock only on one side so check it)
and it is done
