Definitions

  • the invention relates to a version for a miniature relay, with an insulating body and embedded control current and switching current contacts on the one hand for connecting the control current pins of the relay to a circuit board and on the other hand for connecting the switching current pins of the relay.
  • sockets are known in which contacts are embedded, which come out of the insulating body with a pin-shaped foot and which have plug-in receptacles for the connecting pins of the relay at the other end.
  • the soldering feet are all soldered to corresponding conductor tracks on the circuit board, as is generally the case with soldering feet of electronic components. Because of the standardized dimensions of the miniature relays and the pitch of the pin spacing, such sockets are only suitable and intended for miniature relays in which the control current and also the switching current are low, while at high switching currents the electrical safety. the circuit is no longer guaranteed, especially due to the no longer maintainable minimum clearances for creepage distances and clearances.
  • the invention has for its object to provide a version for a miniature relay, which is simple in construction, easy to use and for high switching currents (up to 16 amps) with full compliance with all electrical safety regulations.
  • this object is achieved in that the insulating body is assigned a special chamber arrangement in which plug or screw terminals for the switching current-carrying cables or plugs are provided and which are connected to the switching current contacts by metallic bridges within the insulating body .
  • the insulating body effectively isolates even the high currents from the low ones of the control circuit and ensures that the required air and creepage distances are maintained.
  • the chamber is therefore designed as an extension of the insulating body, there is a one-piece and therefore one-piece component for the socket, which is completely prefabricated and easy to handle.
  • the bridges mentioned can be one-piece components of the contacts and moreover one-piece components of the connecting terminals. Ideally, the result is that the bridges provide the terminal at one end and the contacts for the pins of the miniature relay in one piece at the other end.
  • the bridge has an insertion or snap-in tab for connection to the block of a screw connection clamp designed as a block clamp.
  • the bridges which may have the contacts themselves, can be connected in a simple manner to the block clamp.
  • a further advantage is an embodiment which is characterized in that the special chamber arrangement has at least one laterally open pocket, from the opening side of which the contacts and the terminals can be inserted.
  • the special chamber arrangement is preferably arranged on a narrow longitudinal side of the socket, which in particular has the advantage of the shortest connection between the contacts receiving the contact pins of the relay and the connecting terminals.
  • the insulating body can be provided with electrically non-functional soldering support feet in an area remote from the control current contacts, especially since the new version differs from the known version in that only the control current contacts have soldering feet, while the switching current contacts are completely in the Insulating body of the socket are integrated.
  • FIGS. 1 to 4 show in the same representation corresponding to FIGS. 1 to 4 a socket with a screw terminal.
  • the socket has a plastic insulating body 10 of approximately L-shaped shape in the plan view with a long leg 11 and a shorter leg 12, which is arranged on a long side 13 of the first leg 11.
  • the cover side 14 of the insulating body limb 11 is provided with insertion openings 15 to 18, which are arranged in pairs and are used to insert the relay contact pins.
  • the insertion openings 15 are assigned to the control circuit of the relay and the insertion opening pairs 16 to 18 to the switching circuit, e.g. a changeover contact the insertion openings 17, a closing contact the insertion openings 17 and a break contact the insertion openings 18 can be assigned.
  • each insertion opening 15 there is a contact or a contact spring 19 embedded in the insulating material housing 10, which has a contact pin receptacle 20 and at the other end a soldering foot 21 emerging from the insulating material body 10 for connection to a printed circuit board points.
  • the contact thus serves for the electrical connection of the conductor track, to which the soldering foot 21 is fastened, with the relevant contact pin of the miniature relay (not shown).
  • soldering support feet 21 of the contacts 19 Apart from the two soldering feet 21 of the contacts 19, no further metal parts intended for current conduction emerge from the insulating body 10 of the socket according to the invention.
  • the soldering support feet 22 are cohesively connected to one another via a web 23, as a result of which they can be handled together and are easier to insert into the insulating body 10.
  • the smaller L-leg 12 of the insulating body 10 is laterally attached to the main leg 11 as a special chamber arrangement and has three chamber cavities 24 to 26 open to the side.
  • Each of these chambers 24, 25, 26 is an extension of one located in the main leg 11 and the openings Chamber assigned to 16 or 17 or 18 (eg chamber 27).
  • Each of the chambers (e.g. 27) in the main leg 11 receives a double contact 28 with two contact pin receptacles 29 for the associated relay contact pins.
  • the plug connection 30 is integrally connected to the double contact 28 in a current-conducting manner by a bridge 32.
  • the one-piece contact set 28/29/30/32 can be inserted into the chamber arrangement 24, 27 from the open outside 33 of each chamber (e.g. 24).
  • the captive mounting of this contact set in the insulating material body 10 can be achieved by means of a press fit or a clamp fit without special fastening means.
  • the version of the second embodiment according to FIGS. 5 to 8 differs from the first according to FIGS. 1 to 4 essentially in that here instead of the plug connection 30 has a screw terminal 40 for connecting the cables carrying the high current.
  • the screw connection terminal 40 is also provided in a shorter L-leg 12 laterally next to the main leg 11 of the insulating body 10 and connected to the same in the same material.
  • the screw connection terminal 40 is designed as a block clamp of a conventional type and has a clamp block 41, a wire protection 42 and a clamp screw 43 in a known manner.
  • the bridge 44 for the conductive connection of the screw terminal 40 and the double contact 28 is here as an insert flap formed.
  • the Isolierstoffkör p er 10 can be produced in a simple manner as a one-piece injection molded article made of plastic.
  • the drawings illustrate the miniature relay socket approximately on a 4: 1 scale.
