Definitions
- the subject of the present invention is a polygonal connector, in particular rectangular having a housing in which is positioned a insulating central body with elements of electric contact.
- a polygonal electrical connector by example a connector meeting the SCSI-2 standard, rectangular generally has a rigid case, particularly a metallic body, ensuring the stiffness of the connector and in which are housed share the central insulating body comprising several rows of parallel contact elements, and other apart, in the case of female contact connectors, a metal shield surrounding said insulating body in its part to receive the male contact connector opposite.
- the fixing of the insulating central body on the metallic body constituting the housing can be made by wings protruding from the insulating body on the back of the connector and attaching to the body metallic.
- This fixing system has the disadvantage cannot be used in the case of connectors miniature miniature contacts because this space is too important. On the other hand, this system going beyond connector is vulnerable to manipulation in particular necessary for the manufacturing stages.
- the present invention relates to a system fixing which on the one hand can also be used good for connectors with male contacts or female contacts, whether straight type or angled and on the other hand, has very reduced while ensuring mechanical positioning accuracy of the contact carrier insulating body with respect to the connector housing.
- the invention thus relates to a connector for polygonal type according to claim 1.
- This fixing system can allow in addition to producing an identical insulating body for connectors with straight pins and bent pins.
- Said beam element is advantageously disposed at a longitudinal end of the central body insulator and said lug is advantageously disposed on an internal transverse face of the housing.
- the connector according to the invention has two beam elements each arranged at a longitudinal end of the body insulator and two pins each arranged on one side internal transverse of the housing.
- said lug is adjacent to a middle part of the element of corresponding beam. This allows the best use the elasticity of the beam as it passes over the lug.
- the beam element can be tilted by relation to the direction of insertion of the central body insulating to facilitate the sliding of the beam element along the corresponding lug.
- Said middle part is advantageously located outside an area where the central insulating body abuts in the housing, said lug is extending backwards through a groove.
- said beam element has a central part whose ends each extend by an elastic arm substantially perpendicular to said central part. This gives a higher elasticity when inserting the insulating central body while maintaining its precise positioning in the housing.
- Said beam element advantageously does integral part of the central insulating body.
- a shield cover can be housed between the insulating central body and the housing.
- the hood of shield can be fixed on the insulating central body thanks to the cooperation of two longitudinal edges upper and lower and lugs arranged in two upper and lower longitudinal edges of the body insulating central. These pins allow preposition the shielding cover on the body insulating central, the shielding cover then being locked in position between the insulating central body and the housing.
- the housing may include notches intended to cooperate with locking arms of a connection element cooperating electrically with said connector.
- a connector of the type rectangular has a central insulating body having a rear face 11 into which open out for example female type connection elements not shown in this figure (see fig. 3b; rep. 65).
- the rear face 11 has edges upper and lower longitudinal 18 and edges side 17.
- the rear face 11 is extended by a front face 12 whose outline is inscribed inside that of the rear face 11 and which has upper and lower longitudinal edges 19 substantially parallel to the upper edges and lower 18 as well as side edges 14 not perpendicular to the edges 19.
- the longitudinal ends 17 of the insulating central body 1 have a beam element 41 defined by its thickness e 1 parallel to the longitudinal direction of the rear face 11, its length L perpendicular to this direction in the plane of the rear face 11, and its width l perpendicular to the above two directions.
- the beam 41 can advantageously be extended by two elastic arms 42 and 43 which are perpendicular thereto and which have a length d defined by two clearances 44 and 45, and a thickness e 2 .
- the housing 2 is preferably made of material conductor, for example of a known zinc-based alloy under the trade name "ZAMAC".
- the body metal forming housing 2 has a rear face bearing two upper and lower longitudinal edges 28 and 29 respectively and two compound trihedra orthogonal elements referenced 22, 24 and 25 allowing, in particular thanks to openings 24 'and 25 ', fixing the housing 2 to a support such as chassis or a printed circuit.
- Each trihedron has on the one hand an element vertical 25 extending the upper edge 28 in direction of the lower edge 29, the lower edge 29, and on the other hand, an element 22 also vertical but perpendicular to the upper edge 28, and connecting to element 25.
- the lower edge 29 extends between the two elements 22.
- the trihedron is completed by a horizontal element 24. Fixing openings 24 ' and 25 'are arranged in the trihedral elements 24 and 25.
- each of elements 22 can be extend forward by a locking element comprising an arm and a lug 27.
- the shielding cover 3 has a part rear having longitudinal edges 38 arranged so as to be able to engage with lugs of prepositioning 15 arranged in the middle of the edges longitudinal 18 of the insulating central body 1.
- the edges longitudinal 38 are connected by portions vertical 35, the whole defining, with edges upper and lower 37, an opening 36 which comes engage in the front face 12 until it comes to a stop on the rear plane 13 of the front face 11.
- the insulating central body 1 can be mounted on the housing 2 with or without interposition of the cover shielding 3.
- the middle part 46 of the beam 41 is gradually pushed back by the profile 51 of lug 50, after which beam 41 returns to its original position to lock the body insulating central unit 1 in case 2.
- this insertion can be facilitated by tilting the beam 41 at an angle ⁇ relative to the internal face of the element 22 of the housing 2.
- the beam 41 is thus susceptible to two successive types of deformation during insertion.
- the lug 50 deforms it in a direction perpendicular to the internal face of the element 22 and this deformation is absorbed by the central part 41 and by the arms 42 and 43. This makes it possible to reduce the stresses and allows good elasticity despite reduced dimensions. This function is fulfilled optimally when the lug 50 is positioned in the immediate vicinity of the middle part 46 of the beam 41.
- the length L, the width l and the thickness e of the beam 41 allow its flexibility to be adjusted.
- the bending of the elastic arms 42 and 43, the elasticity of which is defined by their length d, their width l and their thickness e 2 allows the beam 41 to be moved perpendicularly to its plane longitudinal axis.
- the insulating central body 1 can include a crimping means (not shown) arranged on at least one longitudinal edge 18.
- Figures 3a and 3b show a set complete connection using a connector male of the elbow contact type in which are housed male elements 61 bent at 62.
