Definitions

  • the invention relates to an insulation displacement contact for contacting a cable wire transverse to the sleeve axis, in particular for cable wires in telecommunications, from a metallic sleeve jacket with a clamping slot for the insulated cable wire and with an insulation displacement contact slot in the interior of the sleeve body for stripping-free connection of the cable wire and to a method for producing the insulation displacement contact.
  • GB-A-2112216 discloses a sleeve contact of the generic type, which has two insulation displacement contacts for connecting two cable wires, in each of which one cable wire is contacted. In addition, two clamping slots are provided, in each of which a cable wire is clamped to the insulation.
  • the sleeve body has the shape of an eight. It is disadvantageous that an insulation displacement contact is present in the interior of the sleeve contact. The design is difficult to manufacture from a manufacturing point of view since two jacket pieces have to come into close contact. The contact is not suitable for connecting only one cable wire.
  • the invention is therefore based on the object of improving an insulation displacement contact of the generic type in such a way that influencing the insulation displacement contact slot is prevented by widening the clamping slot and that the production of the contact slot with narrow tolerances is possible.
  • both the insulation displacement contact slot and the clamping slot are each formed by incisions in the sleeve jacket, as a result of which exact tolerances in the formation of the clamping slot and insulation displacement contact slot can be maintained.
  • the insulation displacement contact slot is located on a section of the sleeve shell which is unaffected by a possible widening of the clamping slot.
  • the insulation displacement contact is formed from a metal strip into which the clamping slot and the contact slot are cut before bending to make the sleeve contact, in particular by stamping. A cutting point with a sharp edge can be punched out at the same time.
  • the section of the sleeve casing which receives the insulation displacement contact slot can be formed in an e-shaped embodiment as the end piece of the sleeve casing and can be bent radially into the interior of the sleeve.
  • the section receiving the insulation displacement contact slot forms a middle piece of the sleeve jacket, the end pieces of the sleeve connecting the clamping slot and also the cutting point, which are connected to the middle section, are bent semicircularly and in opposite directions from the straight middle piece.
  • the insulation displacement contact can be mounted alone on a circuit board or used in a wiring strip together with a contact of the same type or with completely different ones as connection or disconnection configurations will.
  • the cable wires are simultaneously clamped in the clamping slot by means of a pressure movement, contacted in the insulation displacement contact slot and cut off at the sharp cutting point.
  • the wiring can be done with a tool or by closing a housing cover of a housing in which the insulation displacement contact is inserted. This can also be called a round pipe contact.
  • the sleeve contact is self-supporting and does not require a housing to support or clamp the cable cores and can, for example, be mounted directly on a circuit board.
  • the clamping slot of the sleeve contact enables the cable core to be securely clamped without movements of the cable core having an effect on the insulation displacement contact slot or being transmitted to it.
  • the cable wires to be connected do not have to be cut to a certain length beforehand, but are cut off directly at the sleeve contact using a simple wiring tool without moving parts when wiring at the sharp cutting point.
  • the sleeve contact enables reliable contacting of copper wires between 0.32 mm and 0.80 mm in diameter, which depends on the diameter of the sleeve contact. It is also possible to contact stranded wires.
  • the position of the contact slot in relation to the cable core can be a forked or angular position with contact angles between 45 and 90 °.
  • the insulation displacement contact in the first embodiment according to FIGS. 1 and 2 consists of a flat metal strip 1 made of an electrically conductive material, in which, according to FIG. 2, a contact slot 2 on the left and a clamping slot 3 on the right and a cutting point 4 in the middle by punching are introduced in one operation.
  • the contact slot 2 has a certain width W, which depends on the core diameter of the cable wires 5 to be connected, and is provided with a V-shaped input area 6.
  • the clamping point consists of a clamping slot 3 of width Z, which is regularly larger than the width W of the contact slot 2, and is also provided with a V-shaped input area 7.
  • a U-shaped free cut 9 is stamped into the metal strip 1, the base 10 of which intersects at right angles at the inner end of the clamping slot 3 and its leg 11 parallel to the clamping slot 3 in the direction of whose input area 7 extend, as shown in Fig. 2.
  • the metal strip 1 is bent or rolled into a sleeve body 12 which is round in cross section, a portion 13, which in FIG. 2 is shown by the dashed line 14 from the remaining sleeve jacket 15 is divided, is bent radially into the interior of the sleeve body 12, as shown in Fig. 1 is.
  • the contact slot 2 lies in the center of the sleeve body 12 and is oriented at an angle ⁇ to the transverse axis 16 of the sleeve body 12.
  • the clamping slot 3 and the cutting point 4 are arranged opposite to it, as shown in Fig. 1.
  • This embodiment of the insulation displacement contact forms an e-shape with an insulation displacement contact slot 2 oriented at an angle ⁇ obliquely to the axis 17 of the cable wire 5 to be connected, the cable wire 5 lying in the direction of the axis 17 (FIG. 1).
  • the section 13 receiving the contact slot 2 is not connected to the sleeve jacket 12 at the free end 18, as is shown in FIG. 1.
  • FIGS. 3 to 12 show embodiments modified from the e-shape shown in FIG. 1.
  • Figures 3 and 4 show a pure fork contact, the portion 13 of the sleeve shell 12 is arranged exactly in the transverse axis 16, so that the contact slot 2 is parallel to the perpendicular axis 17, as shown in Fig. 3.
  • the insulation displacement contact according to FIG. 4 corresponds to that shown in FIG. 3 and is only bent or rolled up in the opposite direction.
  • the insulation displacement contact shown in FIG. 5 corresponds to that of FIG. 1, the angle ⁇ being specified as 70 °.
  • the insulation displacement contact according to FIG. 6 corresponds to that of FIG. 5 and is only bent or rolled in the opposite direction.
  • the insulation displacement contacts shown in FIGS. 7 and 8 have an angle ⁇ of 45 °, at which the part 13 bent into the interior of the sleeve body 12 is bent relative to the axis 17 of the cable core 5.
  • the radial length of the section 13 corresponds to the inside diameter of the sleeve body 12.
  • the length of the section 13 'bent into the interior of the sleeve body 12 is longer than the inside diameter of the sleeve body 12, with receptacles in the form of an opening 19 (FIG. 9) or in the form of a bulge 20 (FIG. 10) being provided for the lateral support of the radial section 13 '.
  • the radial section 13 ' is supported laterally.
  • the length of the radially inwardly bent section 13 again corresponds to the inside diameter of the sleeve body 12, with receptacles 18 again being provided for the section 13, which are designed in the form of inwardly curved tabs 21 which are cut out from the sleeve jacket 15 of the sleeve piece 12 in a U-shape.
  • the insulation displacement contact has an S shape in plan view, the section 13 "of the sleeve casing 12", which receives the contact slot 2, forms the middle section of the metal strip 1 "of the sleeve casing 12".
  • the jacket pieces 22, 23 of the sleeve body 12 'arranged on both sides of the middle piece 13 "and integrally formed therewith are each semicircular and bent opposite to one another, so that these jacket pieces 22, 23 form the actual sleeve body 12, which is radial from the middle piece 13"
  • the middle piece 13 ′′ lies at a large angle ⁇ to the axis 3, in which the cable core 5 runs, and the cutting point 4 is also diametrically opposite the clamping slot 3.
