Description

具有插入检测的连接器
技术领域
本发明涉及连接器的领域，更具体地是用于电连接的连接器，并且特别是在汽车领域中的电插座的连接的连接器。
背景技术
在现有技术中，用于接纳压接在供电线上的电触头的连接器是已知的。现有技术的这种连接器包括由模制的塑性材料制成的本体，该本体设置有用于接纳电触头并在电触头插入之后对电触头进行锁定的凹部。
第二锁定由铰接的活罩提供，该铰接的活罩在用于容置电触头的凹部上折叠。这种可折叠式活罩设置有内突出部，该内突出部用于在触头没有被正确地定位时防止该折叠式活罩倾斜。
现有技术的缺点
现有技术解决方案的缺点涉及包括有可折叠式活罩的部件的制造。这种部件必须抵抗使模制铰链的存在不太适用的各种机械约束和热约束。更特别地，模制铰链的制造是对使用填充的塑性材料的一种障碍，这是因为这将导致对易于受到弯曲的区域的过低的机械阻力。
发明内容
由本发明带来的解决方案包括制造连接器成为没有铰链或可变形部分的两个可平移移动的预组装元件。
本发明就其最广泛的意义上说涉及一种电连接器，该电连接器包括模制的本体，该模制的本体包括用于接纳压接在供电线上的电触头的至少一个凹部，所述本体包括活罩，该活罩能够在允许触头插入至所述凹部中的位置与锁定位置之间移动，在该锁定位置中，所述活罩使触头锁定在凹部中，其特征在于，所述活罩能够相对于所述本体平移移动，并且活罩与本体形成了单个铰接部。
有利地，所述活罩设置有被横向侧面连接的两个侧向侧面，所述侧向侧面通过形成导引滑动部而与本体的侧部表面协作，所述侧向侧面在其下端处设置有纵向止挡部，所述纵向止挡部防止移动活罩相对于本体移除。
优选地，所述本体设置有用于保持活罩的所述纵向止挡部的互补的纵向止挡部。
根据特别的实施方式，所述本体在其下部中还设置有两个外围延伸部，该两个外围延伸部与所述纵向止挡部协作以通过夹在本体上而锁定活罩。
根据优选的可替代解决方案，所述活罩在其内表面上设置有两个挡块，这两个挡块具有与设置在电触头上的中空部匹配的部段。
本发明还涉及一种包括灯泡的系统，该系统设置有互补的连接插座和包括模制的本体的连接器，该模制的本体包括用于接纳压接至供电线上的电触头的至少一个凹部，所述本体包括活罩，该活罩在允许触头插入至所述凹部中的位置与锁定位置之间移动，在该锁定位置中，所述活罩使触头锁定在凹部中，其特征在于，所述活罩能够相对于所述本体平移移动，并且该活罩与本体形成了单个铰接部，并且所述插座设置有用于插入所述连接器的凹部，其中，所述凹部的所述部段被构造成能够在所述活罩不处于锁定位置时防止连接器插入。
附图说明
当阅读下列描述，同时参照关于非限制性的示例性实施方式的附图时，将更好地理解本发明，在附图中：
图1示出了根据本发明的连接器的四分之三后视图；
图2示出了根据本发明的连接器的四分之三前视图；
图3示出了通过凹部的截面图。
具体实施方式
图1和图2分别示出了根据本发明的连接器的四分之三后视图和四分之三前视图。该连接器包括由模制的塑性材料制成的主体1以及可平移移动的活罩2。
主体在其前部上设置有接口区域3，该接口区域3具有与要被供电的设备的部段——例如H9或H11型灯泡的插座——相匹配的部段。
本体1设置有两个纵向凹部6、7，这两个纵向凹部6、7在接口区域3的前部处敞开并且在后部处敞开以使得能够实现先前压接至供电线上的电触头4、5插入。
如图3所示，电触头4、5设置有两个突出鼻状部8，这两个突出鼻状部8定位在触头的相对的面上，并且被夹在凹部6的内壁中。
主体1与可移动的活罩2协作以形成与本体1的后部9交叠的框架。
这种活罩设置有由横向侧面12连接的两个侧向侧面10、11。这两个侧向侧面10、11与本体1的侧部表面13、14协作并且形成导引滑动部。侧向侧面10、11在其下端处设置有纵向止挡部15、16，以防止移动活罩相对于本体1移除。出于这种目的，本体1设置有互补的纵向止挡部17、18。
本体还在其下部中设置有两个外围延伸部19、20，该外围延伸部19、20与所述纵向止挡部15、16协作以通过夹在本体1上来锁定活罩2。
活罩的内表面设置有两个挡块21、22，该挡块21、22具有与设置在电触头4、5上的中空部23、24相匹配的部段。这种挡块具有两个功能。一方面，该挡块在触头没有适当地接合时限制了活罩2的运动。事实上，该挡块被位于凹部23、24的前面的触头4、5区域而被阻挡。
另一方面，由于当活罩处于下部位置时，挡块接合至凹部23、24的中空的空间中，挡块锁定了触头4、5，并且因而阻止了触头4、5在凹部6、7中的纵向运动，并更具体地，防止了触头的意外移除（removal）。
连接器在处于锁定位置中时设置有与互补的电气装置的部段——例如H9或H11灯泡的插座——相匹配的部段。相反地，当活罩不处于锁定位置时，活罩形成了突出部，该突出部防止连接器插入至所匹配的凹形部中。
本体1还设置有锁定区域30，该锁定区域30沿纵向方向延伸并且具有与设置在灯座上的接纳区域——或更一般地，用于接纳要被连接的凹形元件的区域——相匹配的形状。
本体1和活罩2组成单个部件的两个铰接的和预组装的元件，该单个部件是通过在注射模具中沿主方向模制而制造的并且包括滑动箱（slidingbox）。
在第一纵向方向25上的注射使得能够模制本体的前部并且更特别地使得能够模制凹部6、7的前部、凸形接口区域3以及设置有挡块21、22的活罩的区域。
在第二纵向方向26上的注射使得能够模制本体的后部、凹部6、7的后部以及活罩2的后部，更特别地能够模制由横向侧面和侧向侧面的上部限定的框架。还使得能够形成活罩2的纵向止挡部15、16以及本体1的止挡部17、18和19、20。
模具的、在与两个主方向垂直的方向27上移动的滑动箱使得挡块保持部21、22以及活罩导引滑动部能够相对于本体1脱模。
在与两个主方向垂直的方向28上移动的滑动箱的第二部分使得活罩滑动部的第二部分能够脱模。
