Description

Technical area

The invention relates to an electrical connector, in particular a bevelled plugged and pulled, watertight electrical connector.

State of the art

On the market there are electrical connectors of various kinds, most of which basically consist of a male connector part and a female connector part, which can be coupled together by plugging together.

Depending on the intended use, the conventional electrical connectors comprise one or more electrical connection terminals for transmitting electrical energy and / or electrical signals. To increase the reliability and safety level of the electrical connector, tensile strength, dust and water resistance are among the basic requirements of the electrical connector. The registered Taiwanese utility model with the publication number TW M315444 U For example, provides an improved construction of a cable connector in which a male connector part is bolted to a female connector part by means of a nut.

The registered Taiwanese utility model with the publication number TW M328109 U discloses a quick positioning assembly of a power connector that can be actuated faster than the aforementioned bolt assembly with a nut. Furthermore, the registered Taiwanese utility model with the publication number discloses TW M395951 U a connector device that can be mounted in a housing of an electronic device to receive and protect mating connector parts, wherein the construction of the connector device is complicated compared to the previous conventional electrical connectors.

Although the conventional electrical connectors are structurally slightly different in purpose or function, e.g. with different water- or dust-proof structure, but most conventional electrical connectors are designed so that they can only be plugged in and pulled straight. In other words, the male connector part and the female connector part of the electrical connector are only coaxial, straight plugged and pulled, so they are not applicable to certain special application circumstances. For example, in certain electric vehicles due to the mounting position of the electrical connector or by the blocking of a particular structure or assembly in scooters and wheels the male connector part can not be plugged straight into the female connector part.

Detailed description of preferred embodiments

In the following, objects, features and advantages of the present invention will become more apparent from the detailed description of embodiments and the accompanying drawings. However, the invention should not be limited to the description of the preferred embodiments and the accompanying drawings.

As in 1 is shown, the beveled pluggable, waterproof electrical connector according to the invention comprises a female connector part A and a male connector part B , which can be coupled together by plugging together.

As in 5 and 6 is shown has the female connector part A a female housing 10 and at least one first female contact 11 on. The female housing 10 is hergstellt from electrically insulated material, eg injection molded from plastic. At one of the male connector part B facing side of the female housing 10 is a female interface 12 arranged. At the female housing 10 is a depression 13 arranged, wherein the male connector part B into the depression 13 plugged in and can be coupled with the same. The depression 13 is a gutter, the first female contact 11 encloses and in the female housing 10 is trained in depth. At one point, the female pad 12 and the depression 13 adjoining each other is a guide slope 14 arranged. The first female contact 11 is on a female contact carrier 15 of the female housing 10 firmly attached.

The first male contact 21 is on a male contact carrier 25 of the male housing 20 attached. At the first male contact 21 and the first female contact 11 it is a male connector. In particular, the first male contact 21 through the first female contact 11 be trapped. At a female connector part A facing side of the male housing 20 is a male interface 22 provided and the male housing 20 has a male part 23 on, pointing towards the female connector part A extends, being around the outside of the male part 23 around a waterproof washer 24 is arranged, with the waterproof washer 24 and the guide slope 14 of the female connector part A can close tightly. The plug-in part 23 is a tubular structure. In the embodiment shown in the drawing, the plug is 23 formed from an annular wall extending from the male pad 22 to the female connector part A extends, wherein the annular wall of the first male contact 21 encloses. In addition, the plug-in part 23 according to the depression 13 of the female connector part A be plugged in. At a female connector part A facing end of the tubular structure is an opening 231 provided with bevelled edge (see 3 ), which ensures that the plug 231 of the male connector part B beveled into the depression 13 of the female connector part A can be inserted.

For the plug and pull operation of the connector according to the invention is on 7 and 8th directed. First, the plug-in part 23 of the male connector part B beveled into the depression 13 of the female connector part A plugged in (see 7 ) and then the male connector part B then pushed into a coupling position in which the male connector part B coaxial with the female connector part A located (see 7 ). Unless the female connector part A and the male connector part are coupled together by mating and thus electrically connected to each other, it is possible that the female pad 12 of the female connector part A and the male pad 22 of the male connector part B close tightly and the guide slope 14 of the female connector part B and the waterproof washer 24 complete watertight. Such a connector, which can be inserted or pulled in two steps, is in certain application circumstances, in which the male connector part B not straight in the female connector part A can be inserted, can be used. In addition, the connector according to the invention is waterproof.

Preference is given to the female contact carrier 15 of the female housing 10 a guide gap 16 arranged, which serves the first male contact 21 for plugging into the corresponding first female contact 11 respectively . When the plug-in part 23 of the male connector part 23 beveled into the depression 13 of the female connector part A is inserted, the oblique angle range can be increased.

In a further preferred embodiment of the invention bevelled pluggable, waterproof electrical connector comprises the male connector part B at least one second male contact 26 and the female connector part A at least one second male contact 26 corresponding second female contact 17 , where the second female contact 17 on the female case 10 is arranged so that this on the second male contact 26 aligned, the second female contact 17 with the second male contact 26 can be brought into contact and thus electrically connected to the same to transmit electrical energy or electrical signals. Depending on the intended use or standard requirements of the electrical connector, it is possible to use the second male contact 26 form as an elastic expandable contact. In another practical embodiment, the second male contact 26 and the corresponding second female contact 17 alternatively be designed as a pin header.

In summary, the invention contemplates a bevelled pluggable watertight electrical connector having a female connector part ( A ) and a male connector part ( B ), which are electrically connected by mating with each other, wherein the male connector part ( B ) at least one first male contact ( 21 ) and the female connector part ( A ) at least one first female contact ( 11 ) which corresponds to the first male contact ( 21 ), wherein the male connector part ( B ) a plug-in part ( 23 ), which is for insertion into a corresponding recess ( 13 ) of the female connector part ( A ), wherein around the outside of the male part ( 23 ) a waterproof washer ( 24 ) is arranged, wherein the insertion part ( 23 ) is a tubular structure, wherein at a the female connector part ( A ) facing end of the tubular structure an opening ( 231 ) is provided with bevelled edge, wherein for mating of the two connector parts ( A .
