Abstract

A carrier strip for electrical contact members comprises an elongate metallic strip in which are formed a plurality of orifices. The orifices are shaped to produce cantilevered portions in the metallic strip which are deformable out of the plane of the metallic strip to permit the insertion between the strip and each cantilevered portion of an electrical contact member. The cantilivered portions may be U-shaped or L-shaped. The invention also comprises a method of making a carrier strip and the electrical contact members. The method comprises producing an elongate metallic strip having a number of contact portions extending at right angles from the strip and a number of cantilevered portions. Contact legs are inserted between the cantilevered portions and the strip in line with each contact portion and welded in position. A portion of the strip is then cropped out so that each contact portion is supported by a contact leg which, in turn, is supported on the strip by the cantilevered portion.

Description

  • This invention relates to carrier strips for electrical contact members and to methods of making such carrier strips and electrical contact members.
  • In our European specification publication EP-A-0025244 there is described a method of making electrical connectors. The method comprises the steps of producing a carrier strip (10) having a plurality of contact portions (12) and a plurality of retaining lugs (14) formed on the carrier strip (10) for retaining contact legs (16) on the carrier strip (10) in line with the contact portions (12). The contact legs (16) are subsequently welded to the carrier strip (10) and the contact portions (12) are cut from the carrier strip (10). The contact portions 12 are retained on the contact legs (16) by the weld, the legs (16) being retained on the carrier strip (10) by the retaining lugs (14). The retaining lugs (14) extend perpendicularly from the carrier strip (10) and hold the contact legs (16) in position by friction. This specification falls under Article 54 (3), EPC, and is thus not relevant to the question of inventive step.
  • It is an object of this invention to provide a carrier strip for electrical contact members which will more securely hold the contact members even when the carrier strip is guided round quite sharp corners and which will also allow the electrical contact members to be readily removed therefrom for insertion into electrical apparatus such as a multi-contact electrical connector. A further object of the invention is to provide a simple and cheap method of making carrier strips for electrical contact members and the electrical contact- members.
  • According to the present invention a carrier strip for electrical contact members comprises an elongate metallic strip having formed therein a plurality of orifices, the orifices being shaped to result in the formation of a plurality of cantilevered portions in the metallic strip each of which is deformable out of the plane of the metallic strip to permit the insertion between each cantilevered portion and the metallic strip of at least a portion of an electrical contact member.
  • Thus a plurality of pairs of orifices may be formed in the metallic strip each pair comprising substantially U-shaped orifice, and a substantially rectangular shaped orifice arranged between the two limbs of the U-shaped orifice to form a substantially U-shaped cantilevered portion in the metallic strip.
  • The substantially U-shaped orifice and the substantially rectangular shaped orifice may be connected by a cutaway portion in the metallic strip to form two substantially L-shaped cantilevered portions in the metallic strip.
  • The invention also comprises a method of making a carrier strip and electrical contact members comprising the steps of producing an elongate metallic strip having a plurality of contact portions formed thereon and a plurality of orifices formed therein, the orifices being shaped to result in the formation of cantilevered portions in the metallic strip in line with the contact portions, each cantilevered portion being deformable out of the plane of the metallic strip to permit the insertion between each cantilevered portion and the metallic strip of at least a portion of an electrical contact member, inserting a contact leg between each cantilevered portion and the metallic strip in line with each contact portion, welding the contact leg to the metallic strip and cutting the metallic strip whereby the contact portion is severed from the metallic strip and retained on the contact leg.
  • Preferably the metallic strip with the contact portions is made by pressing.
  • The metallic strip is preferably formed with the contact portions projecting at right angles from one side of the axis of the metallic strip, but may be formed with contact portions projecting from both sides of the carrier strip. In this case the carrier strip is separated along its central axis before the contact legs are located in position.
  • Embodiments of the invention will now be described by way of example only with reference to the accompanying drawings in which
    • Figure 1 illustrates various steps in producing a portion of a carrier strip for electrical contacts according to the present invention,
    • Figure 2 is a cross-sectional view of the carrier strip shown in Figure 1 along the line 2-2 and
    • Figure 3 shows a portion of a modified form of carrier strip.
  • In Figure 1 there is shown part of a carrier strip 32 which is formed by pressing. The strip includes a plurality of contact portions 12 extending at right angles to the longitudinal axis of the strip and a number of slots 50 having a substantially U-shape and a number of slots 34 having a substantially rectangular shape positioned within the legs of the U-shaped slots 50. A further slot 52 connects the slots 50 and 34 to form two substantially L-shaped portions 36 in the carrier strip 32. These portions are cantilevered and are deflectable away from the plane of the carrier strip 32.
  • The portions 36 are formed in line with the contact portions 12 and in between these portions 36 and the carrier strip 32 are fed contact legs 16, one in line with each of the contact portions 12. The portions 36 hold the contact legs 16 in contact with the carrier strip 32 by spring force.
  • Each contact leg 16 is then welded to the contact strip 32 at a spot 18 adjacent to the lower end of its respective contact portion 12.
  • A part 42 (shown cross-hatched in Figure 1) of the carrier strip is now cut away between the contact portions 12, the part 42 reaching slots 40 formed in the carrier strip 32 so that the contact portions are completely detached from the carrier strip 32. The carrier strip 32 now acts purely as a bandolier, supporting the contact legs 16 with the contact portions 12 welded to the ends of the contact legs 16. The connectors thus formed can then easily be removed from the bandolier and inserted into, for example, an electrical edge connector.
  • The slots 34, 40, 50 and 52 can be formed in the same pressing operation as the formation of the carrier strip 32, or any of the slots can be formed immediately before the welding operation. The carrier strip 32 may be formed with contact portions 12 extending at right angles from opposite sides of the strip. This strip is then parted along its central axis to produce two separate carrier strips.
  • Figure 2 is a cross-sectional view -of the carrier strip 32 showing the cantilever springs 36 acting on the contact legs 16 as shown in Figure 1. The springs can be two L-shapes 36 or a single U-shape 38 as shown in Figure 3. In the former case the finished connector can be withdrawn from the bandolier by pulling the legs 16 lengthwise out from under the springs 36 or by pulling perpendicularly from the strip 32. In the latter case the legs 16 can only be withdrawn by pulling them lengthwise from under the spring 38. Slightly raised portions 44 are provided on the strip to facilitate the welding operation.
  • In the two embodiments selected parts of the contact portions 12 may be plated, such as with gold, prior to the welding operation or prior to the parting operation.
  • Also in each case the welding operation may be carried out by welding one leg 16 at a time or a predetermined number of legs can be fed at a known speed under a weld head which is pulsed to coincide with the parts to be welded.
  • Alternatively the carrier strip can be fed continuously under a weld head which can be arranged to pulse continuously and possibly weld more than once on any leg. Any suitable method of welding can be used.
  • As well as the legs 16 being retained on the carrier strip by the springs described, additional external means of clamping and locating the legs to the strip can be arranged.
  • Either prior to welding or after welding and cropping, the legs 16 can be moveable axially on the carrier strip 32 so that subsequent processes such as swaging or forming the leg can carried out.
