Abstract
Description
- The present invention is directed to the field of electrical connectors and more specifically to the area of male and female electrical connector configurations ideally suited for low energy electronic circuits.
- Microscopic evaluation of prior art electrical connector terminal designs, which have undergone environmental stress such as thermal expansion and contraction as well as mechanical vibrations, have disclosed wear tracks and metallic residue resulting from the physical movement of one electrical contact on another. The electrical effect of this movement is seen as a resistance increase through the contact interface as a result of inorganic insulating films and residue which have been eroded from the metallic surfaces of the contacts. In low energy electronics, such as employed in microcircuit devices which generate low current signals, such resistance changes are unacceptable because they cause erroneous information to be communicated.
- The present invention is intended to overcome the problems found in prior art terminals by providing an electrical connector which has a prolonged stable life with a constant low interface resistance. The present invention provides an electrical connector in which the contact geometry and mechanical force loading are such that physical movement between the mated male and female members is substantially reduced or eliminated.
- According to a first aspect of the invention, there is provided a female electrical connector for mating with a male cylindrical pin type connector, comprising body means having a first end portion for accepting and making electrical contact with said male pin connector and a second portion for supporting said first end portion; and a cylindrical hood means mounted concentrically around said body means and having a first apertured end portion defining the maximum diameter of said male pin connector that may be inserted into said body means, wherein said first end portion of said body means is formed as a pair of opposing "V" shaped contacts having respective apexes adjacent the inner surface of said cylindrical hood means and the opposing surfaces of said contacts being generally planar and tangential to said male pin connector, when inserted, to provide four substantially parallel lines of electrical contact with said male pin connector.
- The invention also provides an insulative housing for a female connector as set out above defining a cylindrically shaped inner chamber having an open first end for accepting the insertion of said female connector and a second apertured end that is approximately the same diameter as said aperture of said hood so as to provide a stop for further insertion of said female connector, an electrical insulator between the first apertured end of said hood and the exterior of said housing and access to said female connector by said male pin connector.

It is readily apparent that the present invention offers improved stability and long life over conventional connectors due to its unique configuration.
- An
insulative housing 80 is shown in Fig. 4 which is utilized to support an array of female electrical conductors, such as described above, in a positively locked configuration having their open ends electrically insulated from the external surface of the housing.

At the opposite end of the chamber 82, anapertured stop 84 is defined that is approximately the same diameter as theaperture 52 on thehood 50. The size of theaperture 84 is designed to accept the insertion of thepin connector cylinder 10 and orients the nose end 12 so as to be coaxial with thefemale connector 20. Aresilient locking arm 88 is formed as an extension of theinsulative housing 80 and contains alocking tab 90 which protrudes into the chamber 82, so as to bear against the female connector as it is inserted into the chamber 82 and to hold that connector in place when it is fully inserted. Arecess 89 is formed within theinsulative housing 80 so as to be adjacent theresilient locking arm 88. Therecess 89 is accessible to receive a lockingwedge 100 that is formed to fit in therecess 89 so as to restrict any movement of the lockingarm 88 from its protruding position as shown in Fig. 4. The lockingwedge 100 contains a recedingsurface 102 which abuts against a lower surface 92 of theresilient locking arm 88 and prevents any downward movement of thetab 90 once the locking wedge is inserted. Achamber portion 104 of the lockingwedge 100 provides a bottom element for the chamber 82 when the lockingwedge 100 is installed and an extendingportion 106 provides a sectored . completion for theapertured stop 84.

Of course, during installation, the lockingwedge 100 is removed prior to insertion of thefemale connector 20 through theend 86 of the chamber 82. As thefemale connector 20 is inserted, the forward end of thehood 50 contacts the ramped surface 91 of theresilient locking arm 88 and causes the arm to deflect in a downward manner until thedepression 44 is over the lockingtab 90. At that point, theresilient locking tab 90 will return to its normal position and retain thefemale connector 20 within the chamber 82.
