Definitions

  • the invention relates to a filter plug with a pin head body made of plastic, which has a chamber that is open towards at least one side, with a number of parallel plug pins arranged in a grid, which enter the chamber from the back of the chamber through a bottom and emerge towards the open side of the chamber, and with at least one filter element, in particular a ferrite body, which has holes in the grid of the connector pins, are plugged onto the connector pins, and which are free of play in the axial direction of the connector pins in the axial direction of the connector pins by at least one molded spring element on the connector body Chamber is held.
  • a filter plug is known from DE-U-90 05 597 & WO 91/06 136.
  • the ferrite bodies plugged onto the plug pins serve to decouple electromagnetic interference.
  • this requires laborious manufacturing steps, in particular the curing of the adhesive being associated with a loss of time in mass production.
  • adhesive connections are not possible with some plastics used for pin header bodies of a plug.
  • DE-U-89 12 173 discloses a filter plug with tubular ferrite bodies which are pressed against the bottom of a chamber by means of a holding strip made of plastic, the holding strip being formed in the grid of the plug pins and onto which the ferrite bodies are plugged, and the chamber floor is formed with the cone opposite frustoconical lugs.
  • the retaining strip is designed as a separate individual part and fastened to the pin strip body in recesses in the pin strip body with lateral latching hooks.
  • integrally molded spring elements are provided on the chamber bottom of the pin header body, the ferrite core inserted into the connector pins inserted into the chamber by means of a shield housing which is latched onto the strip body against the force of the spring elements is pressed into the chamber and held there.
  • the ferrite core is only fixed in the final position by an additional component after the chamber with the shield housing has been closed.
  • the invention is based on the object, in the case of a filter plug of the type mentioned at the beginning, with a filter element fastening integrated into the pin strip body, to enable an even simpler, but at the same time safe and tolerance-insensitive assembly of a filter element.
  • the filter element is inserted into the lateral guides of the chamber and onto the plug pins and snapped into the chamber with slight pressure.
  • a filter connector according to the invention is provided with a filter element fastening integrated in one piece in the pin header body, so that the pin header body and the filter element form a unit that consists only of two components and is to be prefabricated, which is completely equipped on a base, e.g. B. a circuit board can be arranged.
  • the arrangement of the spring element laterally of the filter element between this and a side wall of the pin header body has the advantage in cooperation with the design of the spring element with a spring resiliently transverse to the direction of insertion of the filter element that a sufficient spring length can be achieved despite limited space.
  • Another advantage of this arrangement is that the spring element is torque-free in the direction of loading and has a certain elasticity, which is important for absorbing shock loads.
  • the filter element is in many cases designed as a one-piece, strip-shaped ferrite body of elongated extension.
  • the spring element extends between the filter element and the side wall of the pin header body in the longitudinal direction of the filter element.
  • Adequate lateral guidance for the filter element results if the lateral guides are arranged on two opposite ends of the filter element.
  • a particularly simple embodiment can be achieved in that the lateral guides are each formed by two clamps, which are laterally spaced from one another corresponding to the width of the filter element.
  • the spring element is approximately rectangular in cross section and is arranged upright with respect to the chamber floor. It is useful if the locking lug of the spring element is arranged upright between two connector pins. This results in a particularly space-saving arrangement of the filter element attachment with an optimal effect of the spring element.
  • the latching lug is designed with a bevel on its end face and the angle between this bevel and the insertion direction is chosen to be as small as possible.
  • the distance between the side wall is expedient the pin header body and the arm of the spring element matched both to the necessary deflection and to the bendability of the arm. This ensures on the one hand a necessary deflection for the engagement and on the other hand prevents the spring element from being overstretched.
  • the filter plug has a pin header body 1 made of plastic, which has on its right outer side a chamber 3 which is open in FIG. 2 to a printed circuit board 2 and to the right side.
  • This chamber is formed by a front and a rear side part 4 and 5 as well as a side wall 6 of the pin header body 1 and a further side wall, which is integrally formed at about the middle of the height of the side wall 6 and forms the chamber bottom 7.
  • the filter connector has a number of parallel connector pins 8 arranged in a grid, which penetrate the side wall 6, then run parallel under the chamber floor 7, are bent approximately at right angles and enter the chamber 3 from the rear of the chamber through the chamber floor and emerge towards the side of the chamber which is open towards the printed circuit board 2.
  • the filter connector is also equipped with a filter element 9, which is designed as a one-piece, strip-shaped ferrite body of elongated extension and 8 holes in the grid of the connector pins 10 has, with which it is plugged into the connector pins.
  • a filter element 9 which is designed as a one-piece, strip-shaped ferrite body of elongated extension and 8 holes in the grid of the connector pins 10 has, with which it is plugged into the connector pins.
  • the chamber is provided with side guides 15 and 16 provided with run-in bevels 11, 12 and 13, 14, respectively, at two opposite ends of the elongated one Ferrite body 9 are arranged and are formed by two brackets 15a, 15b and 16a, 16b encompassing the corners of the ferrite body.
  • brackets are arranged on the inside of the side parts 4 and 5 of the pin header body 1 opposite one another, wherein two brackets 15a, 15b and 16a, 16b are laterally spaced from each other approximately at a distance of the width B of the ferrite body.
  • the inlet slopes 11, 12 and 13, 14 of the guides 15, 16 each form an insertion channel tapering in the insertion direction 17 of the ferrite body 9.
  • two spring elements 18 are provided here, which extend laterally of the ferrite body 9 between it and the side wall 6 in the longitudinal direction of the ferrite body and are integrally formed on the side wall 6 perpendicular to the chamber bottom 7, for. B. are molded.
  • the spring elements 18 are essentially formed by an arm 19 extending in its longitudinal direction parallel to the side wall 6, which is angled at its ends approximately at right angles in the opposite direction, the one angled end 20 approximately in the middle of the length of the ferrite body 9 on the Sidewall 6 is integrally formed so that the arm 19 can spring transversely to the insertion direction 17 of the ferrite body, while the free angled end 21 of the arm 19 is formed with a locking lug 22 projecting into the insertion area of the ferrite body, which is inserted into and into the chamber Plug pins 8 inserted ferrite body snaps into this and is arranged and designed so that it presses the engaged ferrite body 9 against the chamber bottom 7. As can be seen from FIG.
  • the two spring elements 18 are integrally formed in mirror image on the side wall 6 with respect to the center of the length of the ferrite body and engage symmetrically on the ferrite body.
  • the spring elements 18 are approximately rectangular in cross-section and are arranged in an upright position relative to the chamber bottom 7, the latching lug 22 of the spring elements engaging in an upright position between two plug pins 8 on the ferrite body.
  • the insertion direction 17 is selected in the direction of the ferrite body 9 which has the smallest tolerances, ie in the direction of the height H of the ferrite body.
  • the locking lug 22 of the spring elements 18 is formed on its end face with a bevel 23, the angle ⁇ 1 between this bevel and the insertion direction 17 being chosen to be as small as possible.

So that the latching lug 22 can snap onto the ferrite body 9 at all, the width B of the ferrite body in the insertion direction 17 has a gradation 25 extending over the entire length of the ferrite body. However, it is sufficient if the ferrite body is formed with a pocket-shaped recess for the locking lug at those points at which a locking lug of a spring element engages.
  • the distance A between the side wall 6 of the pin header body 1 and the arm 19 of the spring elements 18 running parallel thereto is matched both to the necessary deflection and to the bendability of the arm 19.
