Description

Die Erfindung betrifft eine elektrische Verbindung gemäß dem Oberbegriff des Patentanspruchs 1 sowie ein Verfahren zur Herstellung eines Kabels für eine derartige Verbindung.The invention relates to an electrical connection according to the preamble of Claim 1 and a method for producing a cable for such a Connection.

Betrachtet man den bevorzugten Einsatzfall der Erfindung, nämlich als Batteriekabel, das eine elektrische Polverbindung zwischen einer im Fahrzeugheck angeordneten Fahrzeugbatterie einerseits und im Mittelwagen bzw. im Vorderwagen befindlichen Verbrauchern andererseits herstellt, so ist es bekannt, derartige Kabel im Fahrzeuginnenraum unterzubringen; siehe beispielsweise die DE 42 10 202 A1 und 42 30 636 A1. Infolge der großen erforderlichen Querschnitte für derartige Kabel ist es aber kaum möglich, sie zu verlegen, d. h. am Einsatzort entsprechend dem gewünschten Kabelverlauf zu biegen; außerdem erfordern die relativ großen Querschnitte im Fahrzeuginnenraum Platz zur Unterbringung des Kabels.If you consider the preferred application of the invention, namely as a battery cable, the an electrical pole connection between one arranged in the rear of the vehicle Vehicle battery on the one hand and in the middle car or in the front car Consumers on the other hand, it is known, such cables in To accommodate vehicle interior; see for example DE 42 10 202 A1 and 42 30 636 A1. Because of the large cross sections required for such cables, it is but hardly possible to relocate them, d. H. on site according to the desired Bend cable run; in addition, the relatively large cross sections in the Vehicle interior space to accommodate the cable.

Für erdverlegte Kabel ist es bekannt (EP 0 821 369 B1), eine Kabelseele mit einem als Schlitzrohr ausgeführten Kabelschutzrohr zu versehen und dieses zu Wellen, wobei durch die Wellentäler eine Verbindung zwischen dem Schutzrohr einerseits und der Kabelseele andererseits hergestellt wird.For underground cables it is known (EP 0 821 369 B1), a cable core with a Slotted tube to provide cable protection tube and this to waves, whereby by the troughs a connection between the protective tube on the one hand and the cable core on the other hand.

Der Erfindung liegt die Aufgabe zugrunde, eine gattungsgemäße Verbindung zu schaffen, die die Platzverhältnisse im Innenraum des Fahrzeugs nicht beeinträchtigt, sowie ein Herstellungsverfahren für ein im Rahmen dieser Verbindung verwendbares Kabel anzugeben.The invention has for its object to a generic connection create that does not affect the space inside the vehicle, and a manufacturing method for a usable in the context of this connection Specify cables.

Die erfindungsgemäße Lösung dieser Aufgabe besteht in einer elektrischen Verbindung gemäß den kennzeichnenden Merkmalen des Hauptanspruchs, Gegenstand der Unteransprüche ist ein Verfahren zur Herstellung eines im Rahmen der Verbindung verwendbaren Kabels.The solution to this problem according to the invention is an electrical connection according to the characterizing features of the main claim, subject of  Subclaims is a method for producing a connection usable cable.

Die Erfindung erschöpft sich also nicht in der Unterbringung des Kabels unterhalb des Bodens des Fahrzeugs und damit außerhalb des Innenraums desselben, sondern gibt auch eine Konstruktion für das Kabel an, die den Verhältnissen unterhalb des Fahrzeugbodens, nämlich Beschädigungsgefährdung und Befestigungsmöglichkeit am Fahrzeugboden, Rechnung trägt.The invention is therefore not limited to the accommodation of the cable below the Floor of the vehicle and thus outside of the interior of the same, but there also a construction for the cable to the conditions below the Vehicle floor, namely risk of damage and attachment to Vehicle floor, takes into account.

Im folgenden wird ein Ausführungsbeispiel der Erfindung anhand der Zeichnung erläutert, deren Fig. 1 schräg von unten einen mit der erfindungsgemäßen elektrischen Verbindung versehenen Fahrzeugboden wiedergibt, während die weiteren Figuren verschiedene Verfahrensschritte bei der Herstellung des Kabels für diese Verbindung zeigen.In the following, an embodiment of the invention is explained with reference to the drawing, of which FIG. 1 shows, diagonally from below, a vehicle floor provided with the electrical connection according to the invention, while the other figures show different process steps in the production of the cable for this connection.

Betrachtet man zunächst Fig. 1, so interessiert der Aufbau des Fahrzeugs im einzelnen nicht. Daher wird nur auf den Fahrzeugboden 1 hingewiesen, unterhalb dessen zwischen dem mit einer Batterie bestückten Fahrzeugheck 2 und einem mittleren Bereich 3 das Kabel 4 mittels Schellen oder Befestigungslaschen 5 als vorgefertigte Einheit gehalten ist. An Stellen, an denen das Kabel den Boden 1 durchsetzt, sind elastische Tüllen 6 und 7 vorgesehen.Looking first at FIG. 1, the structure of the vehicle is of no interest. Therefore, reference is made only to the vehicle floor 1 , below which the cable 4 is held as a prefabricated unit by means of clamps or fastening tabs 5 between the vehicle rear 2 equipped with a battery and a central region 3 . At locations where the cable passes through the floor 1 , elastic grommets 6 and 7 are provided.

Betrachtet man nun Fig. 2, die das Kabel 4 während eines der ersten Verfahrensschritte zu seiner Herstellung wiedergibt, so erkennt man bei 8 die den elektrischen Teil des Kabels bildende Kabelseele, die einen relativ großen Querschnitt besitzt, damit sie die fließenden Ströme führen kann, sowie das Kabelschutzrohr 9. Beide sind relativ biegesteif ausgeführt, so daß eine Verlegung, d. h. eine Formgebung des Kabels 4 am Einsatzort, ausscheidet. In Fig. 2 ist angenommen, daß die Kabelseele 8 bereits in das Kabelschutzrohr 4 eingeführt ist; zwischen beiden besteht in radialen Richtungen Spiel, so daß das Einführen der gestreckten Kabelseele in das ebenfalls gestreckte Schutzrohr 9 leicht möglich ist bzw. war. Das Schutzrohr 9 ist bereits in einem früheren Herstellungsgang mit den Schellen 5 versehen worden, die in diesem Ausführungsbeispiel an das Schutzrohr 9 angeschweißt sind. Sie können auch durch örtliche Verformung des Schutzrohres gewonnen sein. Referring now to Fig. 2, which shows the cable 4 during the first steps for its manufacture, it can be seen at 8, the electrical part of the cable constituting the cable core, which has a relatively large cross section so that it can perform the currents flowing, and the cable protection tube 9 . Both are designed to be relatively rigid, so that laying, ie shaping of the cable 4 at the place of use, is ruled out. In Fig. 2 it is assumed that the cable core 8 has already been inserted into the cable protection tube 4 ; there is play in the radial directions between the two, so that the insertion of the elongated cable core into the likewise elongated protective tube 9 is or was easily possible. The protective tube 9 has already been provided with the clamps 5 in an earlier production process, which are welded to the protective tube 9 in this exemplary embodiment. They can also be obtained by locally deforming the protective tube.

In dieser Gestalt wird die Anordnung 4, 8 in eine Presse eingelegt, deren Backen bei 10 und 11 angedeutet sind. Das Betätigen der Presse im Sinne der Pfeile hat infolge entsprechender Formgebung der Backen 10 und 11 zwei anhand Fig. 3 zu erläuternde Ergebnisse:
Zum einen erhalten beide Teile 8 und 9 gemeinsam eine Form, die der Kontur des Fahrzeugbodens am Einsatzort des Kabels 4 entspricht. Zum anderen erfolgt durch örtliche Prägung bei 12 und 13 an den Endbereichen des Schutzrohrs 9 eine Fixierung der Kabelseele 8 in diesem, so daß Relativbewegungen zwischen den beiden Teilen 8 und 9 verhindert sind.In this form, the arrangement 4 , 8 is inserted into a press, the jaws of which are indicated at 10 and 11. Pressing the press in the direction of the arrows has two results to be explained with reference to FIG. 3 due to the corresponding shape of the jaws 10 and 11 :
On the one hand, both parts 8 and 9 together receive a shape that corresponds to the contour of the vehicle floor at the place where the cable 4 is used. On the other hand, local embossing at 12 and 13 at the end regions of the protective tube 9 fixes the cable core 8 in it, so that relative movements between the two parts 8 and 9 are prevented.

Auf die aus dem Schutzrohr 9 herausragenden Endbereiche der Kabelseele 8 werden nunmehr die tüllenförmigen Leitungsdurchführungen 6 und 7 aufgezogen; anschließend werden die Enden mit Anschlußmitteln 14 und 15 versehen. Dabei handelt es sich hier um einen Kabelschuh 14 und eine Polklemme 15.The grommet-shaped cable bushings 6 and 7 are now drawn onto the end regions of the cable core 8 protruding from the protective tube 9 ; then the ends are provided with connecting means 14 and 15 . This is a cable lug 14 and a pole terminal 15 .

Besteht das Schutzrohr aus Metall, kann es zugleich als Abschirmung dienen. Auch erschwert es zugleich den Zugang zur Kabelseele (Diebstahlschutz).If the protective tube is made of metal, it can also serve as a shield. Also it also makes access to the cable core (theft protection) more difficult.

Mit der Erfindung ist demgemäß eine elektrische Verbindung in einem Fahrzeug geschaffen, die die Raumverhältnisse im Fahrzeuginnenraum nicht beeinträchtigt und ein durch einfache Verfahrensschritte hergestelltes, gegen Beschädigungen geschütztes Kabel enthält.The invention accordingly provides an electrical connection in a vehicle created that does not affect the spatial conditions in the vehicle interior and a Protected against damage by simple process steps Includes cable.
