Description

Elektrische Kupplungsvorrichtung Electrical coupling device
Die Erfindung betrifft eine elektrische Kupplungsvor¬ richtung mit einer an einem Geräterahmen fest angeord¬ neten Messerleiste und einem in Lager des Geräterahmens mittels zwei gleichachsig im Abstand nebeneinander aus- gebildeten Gelenkzapfen anhängbaren Gehäuse mit einer in diesem untergebrachten Buchsenleiste und mit am Ge¬ räterahmen angelenkten in Kulissennuten des Gehäuses mit Kulissensteinen einbringbaren Hebeln zum Anschwen¬ ken des Gehäuses an den Geräterahmen sowie an Geräte- rahmen und Gehäuse angeordneten CodiermittelnThe invention relates to an electrical coupling device with a knife strip fixedly arranged on a device frame and a housing which can be attached in the bearing of the device frame by means of two articulated pins which are formed alongside one another at the same axis and at a distance from one another, with a socket strip accommodated in this and with articulated on the device frame in Link grooves of the housing with levers that can be inserted with link blocks for pivoting the housing onto the device frame and coding means arranged on the device frame and housing
Bei elektrischen Kupplungen dieser Art (EP 0 119 951 A1 ) ist zu Codierzwecken bekannt, im Bereich der dreh¬ baren Halterung von Gehäuse und Geräterahmen an diesen ineinandergreifende Codierstücke anzuordnen. Hierzu weist das an einem Kupplungsteil vorgesehene Codiei— stück einen Zylinderabschnitt auf, der in mit einem hohlzyl indrischen Abschnitt versehenen anderen Codier¬ stück des anderen Kupplungstei 1 einschwenkbar ist. Ab- gesehen davon, daß die Codierstücke schwierig herzustel¬ len sind, bedürfen sie auch aufwendige Befestigungs¬ maßnahmen an den Kupplungsteilen. Außerdem hat ein Wech¬ sel der Codierung erhebliche Montagearbeiten zur Voi— aussetzung.In electrical couplings of this type (EP 0 119 951 A1) it is known for coding purposes to arrange interlocking coding pieces on the housing and device frame in the region of the rotatable mounting of the housing. For this purpose, the code piece provided on a coupling part has a cylinder section which can be pivoted into another coding piece of the other coupling part 1 provided with a hollow cylindrical section. Apart from the fact that the coding pieces are difficult to manufacture, they also require complex fastening measures on the coupling parts. In addition, changing the coding has considerable assembly work for suspension.
Es ist Aufgabe der Erfindung, eine einfache und sich¬ ere Codierung für Kupplungsvorrichtungen zu schaffen, die auch variabel ist. Erf ndungsgemäß ist dies dadurch erreicht, daß das Buchsenleistengehäuse zwischen den Gelenkzapfen neben¬ einander an ausbrechbaren Konturen vorbereitete Schlit¬ zungen mit in Steckrichtung vorne offenen End.en aufweist und daß der Geräterahmen zwischen den Gelenk¬ zapfenlagern mindesten einen in Geräterahmenöffnungen auswechselbar fest eingesetzten und in Schlitzungen des Buchsenleistengehäuses einbringbaren Codierstift trägt. Bevorzugt ist dabei das Buchsenleistengehäuse zwischen den beiden Gelenkzapfen durch einen Flachstreifen gebil¬ det, der die durch ausbrechbare Konturen vorbereitete Schlitzungen aufweist. Auf diese Weise sind die Mittel zur Codierung der Kupplungsteile einfach und ohne nach¬ teilige Vergrößerung von Geräterahmen und/oder Gehäuse ausbildbar. Außerdem sind die vorbereiteten Schl t- zungen und der Codierstift ohne großen Aufwand an Werk¬ zeugen ausbildbar.It is an object of the invention to provide a simple and safe coding for coupling devices which is also variable. According to the invention, this is achieved in that the socket strip housing has, between the hinge pins, adjacent to each other on breakable contours prepared slits with ends open in the plug-in direction at the front, and in that the device frame between the hinge pin bearings has at least one interchangeably firmly inserted in device frame openings and in Slits of the female connector housing insertable coding pin carries. The socket strip housing is preferably formed between the two hinge pins by a flat strip which has the slits prepared by break-out contours. In this way, the means for coding the coupling parts can be formed easily and without disadvantageously enlarging the device frame and / or housing. In addition, the prepared striations and the coding pin can be formed on tools without great expense.
In Ausgestaltung der Kupplungsvorrichtung ist vorge- sehen, daß die Kulissennuten am Einführende für dieIn an embodiment of the coupling device it is provided that the link grooves on the introducer for the
Kulissenteine der Hebel jeweils einen sich konisch ver¬ jüngenden Kulissenteil mit einem quer erstreckenden Kulissennutentei1 aufweisen und daß die quer erstrecken¬ den Kul issennutentei le hintereinander mit zwei als Ra- sten für die Kulissensteine dienende bogenförmigeLink blocks of the levers each have a conically tapering link part with a transversely extending link groove part and that the transverse link groove parts have one behind the other with two arched serving as rests for the link blocks
Einziehungen als Vorverrastungs- und Verriegelungsstel¬ lung versehen sind. Beim Ansetzen des Gehäuses an den Geräterahmen ermöglicht eine Teilschwenkung des Gehäu¬ ses in Verbindung mit den die Kulissensteine tragenden Doppelhebeln durch Eingreifen der Kulissensteine in die eine Einziehung eine Vorverrastung des Gehäuses, aus der heraus durch weiteres Abschwenken der Doppelhebel und Verbringen der Kulissensteine in die andere Einzieh¬ ung eine Verriegelung des Gehäuses am Geräterahmen er- folgen kann. Die Einziehungen für die Verriegelungs¬ stellung erstrecken sich zweckmäßig vor der senkrechten Verbindungslinie der Mittelachse der Zapfen zum Geräterahmen, wodurch für die Doppelhebel ein Überhub erzielt wird, der ein unbeabsichtigtes selbsttätiges Lösen ausschließt.Indentations are provided as a pre-latching and locking position. When the housing is attached to the device frame, a partial pivoting of the housing in conjunction with the double levers carrying the sliding blocks by engaging the sliding blocks in one retraction enables the housing to be pre-locked, from which further pivoting of the double levers and moving the sliding blocks into the other Retraction of the housing on the device frame can take place. The recesses for the locking position expediently extend in front of the vertical connecting line of the central axis of the pins to Device frame, whereby an overstroke is achieved for the double lever, which prevents unintentional automatic release.
Schließlich ist noch vorgesehen, die beiden Hebel als Doppelhebel mit verschieden langen Hebelarmen zu gestalten und durch einen Steg miteinander zu verbin¬ den, wobei die Hebel mittels Zapfen am Geräterahmen lagern, während die kurzen Hebelarme die Kulissen- steine tragen. Nach bevorzugter Ausführung können die Hebelarme und der Steg durch einen einstückigen Form¬ teil und die Zapfen und/oder die Kulissensteine zu Sta¬ bilitätsverbesserungen durch an den Hebelarmen angeord¬ nete tiefgezogene Ansätze gebildet seinFinally, provision is made for the two levers to be designed as double levers with lever arms of different lengths and to be connected to one another by means of a web, the levers being mounted on the device frame by means of pins, while the short lever arms carry the sliding blocks. According to a preferred embodiment, the lever arms and the web can be formed by a one-piece molded part and the pins and / or the sliding blocks for stability improvements by deep-drawn approaches arranged on the lever arms
Zur Vermeidung von einem unbeabsichtigtem Heraustreten der Zapfen aus den Zapfenlagern ist.vorgesehen, an den die Zapfen bildenden Ansätze je einen abbiegbaren Lap¬ pen anzuschneiden, die in sich an den Zapfenlagern an- schließenden Ringnuten als axiale Abstützglieder für die Doppelhebel eintauchen.In order to prevent the pins from inadvertently coming out of the pin bearings, provision is made to cut a bendable tab on each of the lugs forming the pins, which plunge into the ring grooves adjoining the pin bearings as axial support members for the double levers.
Darüberhinaus läßt sich eine axiale Fixierung der Dop¬ pelhebel am Geräterahmen auch dadurch erreichen, daß die die Zapfen bildenden Ansätze je eine Ausdrückung und die zugeordneten Zapfenlager zu den Arbeits- und Ruhestellungen der Doppelhebel versetzt je eine sich an den Zapfenlagern anschließende Durchführungsöffnung für die Ausdrückungen der Ansätze aufweisen. Das Einbringen bzw. das Entnehmen der Ansätze aus den Zapfenlagern ist einfach nach Gegenüberstellung von Ausdrückungen und Durchführungsöffnungen für diese möglich.In addition, an axial fixation of the double lever on the device frame can also be achieved in that the lugs forming the journals each have an expression and the associated journal bearings for the working and rest positions of the double levers each offset a through opening adjoining the journal bearings for the expressions of the Have approaches. The insertion or removal of the lugs from the journal bearings is possible simply by juxtaposing expressions and through openings for them.

Der Gerä- terahmen 1 weist parallele Seitenwangen 6 auf, die das Buchsenleistengehäuse 3 zwischen sich aufnehmen. An den Seitenwangen 6 sind mittels Zapfen 7 Doppelhebel 8 mit verschieden langen Hebelarmen 8' und 8'' angelenkt, de¬ ren kleinere Hebelarme 8' jeweils einen als Kulissen- stein dienenden weiteren Zapfen 9 tragen und deren lan¬ ge Hebelarme 8'' am freien Ende durch einen Steg 10 miteinander fest verbunden sind. Die Doppelhebel 8 sind aus einer strichpunktierten Fre gabestellung für das Buchsenleistengehäuse 3 in eine vol 1geze chnete Kuppel- Stellung und umgekehrt abschwenkbar. Das Buchsenleisten¬ gehäuse 3 ist durch Gelenkzapfen 11 an Gelenkzapfenla¬ ger 12 des Geräterahmens 1 verschwenkbar gehalten. Die Zapfen 7 der Doppelhebel 8 sind, wie die Fig. 4 undIn the Fi g. i mi t st 1 ei n Ge-ra ~ te frame bezei seframe z. B. can be arranged in a motor vehicle / ug and carries a multi-pole male connector 2. With 3 is a socket strip housing, which accommodates socket sleeves 5 in recesses 4 (FIG. 4) which can be contacted with knife pins 2 'of the knife strip 2. The device frame 1 has parallel side walls 6 which accommodate the socket strip housing 3 between them. On the side walls 6, double levers 8 with lever arms 8 'and 8''of different lengths are articulated by means of pins 7, their smaller lever arms 8' each carry a further pin 9 serving as a sliding block and their long lever arms 8 '' on free end are firmly connected to each other by a web 10. The double levers 8 can be swung out from a dash-dotted position for the female connector housing 3 in a vol 1geze chnet dome position and vice versa. The socket strip housing 3 is held pivotably by pivot pins 11 on pivot pin bearings 12 of the device frame 1. The pin 7 of the double lever 8 are, as shown in FIGS. 4 and

Sprengring 34 zur axialen Fixierung der Hebelarme 8', 8' an den Seitenwangen 6 auf.Snap ring 34 for axially fixing the lever arms 8 ', 8' on the side walls 6.
Bei Einschieben der Gelenkzapfen 11 in die Gelenkzapfenlager nimmt das Buchsenleistengehäuse 2 zunächst die in Fig. 1 strichpunktierte Stellung ein. Durch nachfolgendes Schwenken des Buchsenleistengehäu- ses 3 in Richtung Geräterahmen 1 verschieben sich die Zapfen 9 in den konischen Kul issennutentei len 13', wobei durch Anlaufen der Zapfen 9 an Schrägen 23 eine Teilschwenkung der Doppelhebel 8 in Uhrzeigerdrehrich- -tung erfolgt. Die Zapfen 9 kommen mit einer Einziehung 24 zur Wirkung und das Buchsenleistengehäuse 3 ist am Geräterahmen 1 vorverrastet gehalten. Bei weiterem Abschwenken der Doppelhebel 8 in Uhrzeigerdrehrichtung bewegen sich die Zapfen 9 über den Teil 13'' und drücken das Buchsenleistengehäuse 3 in die in Fig. 1 gezeigte Kuppelstellung an den Geräterahmen 1. In dieser Stellung greifen die Zapfen 9 in die anderen Einziehungen 25 ein. Durch Anordnung dieser Einzieh¬ ungen 25 vor der senkrechten Verbindungslinie zwischen den Mittelachsen der Zapfen 7 und dem Geräterahmen 1 ist ein Überhub geschaffen, der zu einer Verriegelung führt und ein seibsttägiges Lösen des Buchsengehäuses 3 vom Geräterahmen 1 verhindert. Die Doppelhebel 8 greifen in der Kuppelstellung von Buchsengehäuse und Geräterahmen mit einem Betätigungsansatz 26 in eine Ausnehmung 27 des Buchsenleistengehäuses 3 ein. Durch Einschieben eines geeigneten Werkzeuges, z. B. Schrau- benzieher in die Ausnehmung 27 ist der Doppelhebel 8 rückschwenkbar und das Buchsenleistengehäuse 3 kann vom Geräterahmen 1 abgenommen werden. Die zwischen den Einziehungen 24, 25 verbleibenden Erhöhungen 35 führen zu einem fühlbaren Widerstand beim Zusammenwirken mit den Zapfen 9 in der Art eines Druckpunktes.When the pivot pin 11 is inserted into the pivot pin bearing, the socket strip housing 2 initially assumes the position shown in broken lines in FIG. 1. Subsequent pivoting of the socket strip housing 3 in the direction of the device frame 1 causes the pins 9 to move in the conical Kul issennutentei len 13 ', whereby the double levers 8 are partially pivoted in a clockwise direction by the pins 9 running on slopes 23. The pins 9 come into effect with a retraction 24 and the socket strip housing 3 is held pre-locked on the device frame 1. When pivoting the double lever 8 further in the clockwise direction of rotation, the pins 9 move over the part 13 ″ and press the socket strip housing 3 into the coupling position shown in FIG. 1 on the device frame 1. In this position, the pins 9 engage in the other recesses 25 . By arranging these recesses 25 in front of the vertical connecting line between the central axes of the pins 7 and the device frame 1, an overstroke is created, which leads to a lock and prevents the socket housing 3 from being detached from the device frame 1 on every day. The double levers 8 engage in the coupling position of the socket housing and device frame with an actuating projection 26 in a recess 27 of the socket strip housing 3. By inserting a suitable tool, e.g. B. screwdriver into the recess 27, the double lever 8 can be pivoted back and the socket strip housing 3 can Device frame 1 can be removed. The elevations 35 remaining between the indentations 24, 25 lead to a noticeable resistance when interacting with the pins 9 in the manner of a pressure point.
Das Buchsenleistengehäuse 3 weist zwischen den beiden Gelenkzapfen 11 einen Flachstreifen 28 auf, der eine Anzahl an vorbereitete Konturen 29 ausbrechbare Schlit¬ zungen 30 aufweist. Den Schlitzungen 30 ist am Geräte- rahmen 1 mindestens ein Stift 31 auswechselbar fest bzw. fest zugeordnet, so daß durch entsprechendes Zusam¬ menwirken von Schlitzungen 30 und Stiften 31 eine Codie¬ rung des Buchsenleistengehäuses 3 erzielbar ist.
