Definitions

  • the invention relates to a modular connector system with at least one plug-in frame consisting of interconnectable, preferably screwable frame parts, a plurality of insulating bodies fixed in the plug-in frame, which are lined up next to one another with two approximately parallel outer contact surfaces and each have at least two transversely to the contact surfaces extending, provided with retaining projections outer holding surfaces which have a corresponding mutual distance and are detected from the outside by two frame parts of the plug-in frame which extend parallel to one another in such a way that movement of the insulating bodies transversely to the plane of the plug-in frame is excluded, and with one A large number of contact elements, which are used for energy or signal transmission, are in the form of pin and / or socket and / or coax contacts and are fixed in the receiving bores penetrating the insulating body.
  • Known connector systems of this type as manufactured by the applicant and sold under the name ODU-MAC, enable a variable design and arrangement of different plug modules in one and the same plug frame, depending on the plug connector task.
  • this plug-in module plug-in frame unit can be plugged together with a corresponding complementary plug-in module plug-in frame unit.
  • the insulators that can be fixed in the plug-in frame are suitable for receiving only a few more dimensioned pin or socket contacts for energy transmission or also coax contacts, however, such are also provided for receiving more or less numerous, weakly dimensioned pin or socket contacts, most of which serve the signal transmission.
  • the system is accordingly characterized in that at least one of the insulating bodies in each plug-in frame is formed from two parts, one part of which contains the contact elements, on the one hand in plug or socket contacts mounted in a protected manner in this part and on the other in this first part protruding insulation displacement contacts for connection to a flat cable, which is switched between this first part and a pressed-on second part, which engages over the first part with external webs and has the retaining projections on its web outer surfaces.
  • the plug-in frame ensures a stable connection between the two parts of the insulating body and, moreover, a firm hold of this two-part insulating body with the flat cable attached to it in the plug-in frame.
  • the latter can then be put together, for example, with a plug-in frame which is constructed analogously, but complementarily.
  • the connector system according to the invention can of course be used particularly advantageously when it is important to conduct a very large number of circuits securely via a connector, even if each plug-in module of the connector system forming insulating bodies has only a number of contacts corresponding to the number of wires of a flat cable, however, several flat cables should be connectable at the same time. In this case, it is only necessary to arrange several insulating bodies of the same design in one and the same plug-in frame. Due to the specified design of the webs in relation to the frame parts which grip them from the outside, the plug-in frame can namely be gripped like a conventional plug and can be handled comfortably and securely when plugged together, for example with a corresponding mating plug.
  • this latching connection is formed by latching projections provided on the inside of the web, which engage in corresponding recesses in the connected state of the two parts of each insulating body.
  • the retaining projections on the web outer surfaces are designed in the form of protruding lugs extending transversely to the level of the insulating bodies, preferably over the entire thickness of the insulating bodies, and the frame parts of the plug-in frame have recesses which enable the lugs to be gripped from the outside and are dimensioned in accordance with the expansion of the lugs.
  • each plug frame plug-in module unit according to FIGS. 1 to 4 comprises a plug frame consisting of two end pieces 1, 2 and two comparatively longer frame parts 3, 4, which are connected to one another via four screws 5, preferably made of aluminum .
  • eight insulating bodies 6 to 13 are used within the space delimited by the plug-in frame.
  • the traditionally designed insulating bodies 6 and 13 each contain three pin contacts 14 and 15.
  • the insulating bodies 7 and 12 represent spacers of different thicknesses.
  • the insulating bodies 8 to 11 are designed in two parts according to the invention. One of these insulating bodies, namely the body 8, is illustrated in perspective on a larger scale in FIG. 5, but after connection to a flat cable 16.
  • Fig. 1 shows that each end piece 1, 2 of the plug frame has a projecting flange 17 or 18 with a central bore 19 or 20.
  • the end piece 1 is equipped with two guide pins 21 and the end piece 2 with only one guide pin 22.
  • the insulating body 8 consists of the parts 23 and 24.
  • the part 23 contains a multiplicity of contact elements, not shown, which are mounted in a protected manner in this part and which, on the one hand, are not shown schematically in FIG indicated plug contacts 25 leak, on the other hand into insulation displacement contacts, not shown, for connection to the flat cable 16 of FIG. 5.
  • This flat cable 16 is connected between the first part 23 and the pressed-on second part 24.
  • the latter comprises two outer webs 25 and 26, respectively, with which it grips over the first part 23 so as to grip it.
  • a latching connection (not illustrated in any more detail) is provided between these slightly elastically deformable outer webs 25, 26 and the outside of the first part 23 of the insulating body 8 overlapped by the latter. This is formed by locking projections protruding on the inside of the web, which engage in the connected state of the two parts 23, 24 in corresponding recesses in part 23.
  • protruding lugs 27, 28 are provided on part 24, specifically on the web outer surfaces, each extending transversely to the plane of the insulating body 8 over its entire thickness. These form retaining projections which in the assembled state, as shown in Fig. 1, cooperate with the frame parts 3 and 4.
  • the latter namely have recesses 27, 28 which allow the outside to be gripped and which are dimensioned in accordance with the expansion of the noses and are not illustrated in any more detail.
  • the lugs 27, 28 together with the recesses of the frame parts 3, 4 ensured that the insulating body 8 as well as the analog insulating bodies 9 to 11 find a firm hold in the plug frame. This also applies to the remaining insulating bodies 6 and 7 as well as 12 and 13, which also have tabs, not shown, which form analog holding projections.
  • all insulating bodies 6 to 13 are supported in a row in a row with one another with their parallel outer contact surface and form a stable plug-in frame-insulating body unit with the frame parts 1 to 4 after tightening the screws 5.
  • FIGS. 1 and 2 and 5 components corresponding to the components shown in FIGS. 1 and 2 and 5 are designated by the same reference numerals, but with the addition of a prime.
  • part 23 'of the insulating body 8' is formed differently from part 23 according to FIG. 5.
  • FIGS. 1 and 2 are matched to the guide bolts 21 and 22 of the plug frame according to FIGS. 1 and 2 in the plug frame according to FIG. 3 and 4 holes 21 'and 22' are provided.
  • the pin contacts 14 and 15 in the insulating bodies 6 and 13 according to FIGS. 1 and 2 correspond to socket contacts 14 'and 15'.
  • the guide bolts 21, 22 protrude beyond the pin contacts 14 and 15, respectively, and thus ensure that the plug-in frame insulating body units of FIGS. 1 and 2 are correctly aligned with the complementary units according to FIGS 4 sure. Since two guide pins are provided on one side, but only one guide pin on the other side, a reversal of the sides of the plug frame insulating body units when trying to connect them together is prevented.
