Description

Die Erfindung bezieht sich auf eine Steckverbindungsvorrichtung, bestehend aus einem ersten und einem zweiten Stecker, insbesondere einem Gerätestecker und einem Kabelstecker, insbesondere für ein Mobiltelefon, wie sie dem Oberbegriff des Anspruches 1 zu entnehmen ist. Eine derartige elektrische Steckverbindung ist, bspw. durch die DE-OS 25 25 639 bekannt geworden. Sie dient zur Verbindung zweier Flachkabel, weswegen die Begriffe "Gerätestecker" und "Kabelstecker" in weitestem Sinne als "erster Stecker" und "zweiter Stecker" zu verstehen sind.The invention relates to a connector device, consisting of a first and a second connector, in particular a device connector and a cable connector, in particular for a mobile phone, as can be found in the preamble of claim 1. Such Electrical connector has become known, for example, from DE-OS 25 25 639. It is used to connect two flat cables, which is why the terms "device plug" and "cable plug" are to be understood in the broadest sense as "first plug" and "second plug".

Wenn eine derartige Steckverbindung, bspw. in Verbindung mit einem Mobiltelefon verwendet werden soll, so reicht es nicht aus, wenn über die Kontaktelemente das Signal und die Stromversorgung elektrisch leitend verbunden werden, vielmehr muß man auch noch für eine elektrisch leitende Verbindung der Antenne im Bereich der Steckverbindungsvorrichtung sorgen. Dies ist mit der gattungsgemäßen Steckverbindungsvorrichtung nicht möglich. Es liegt infolgedessen die Aufgabe vor, eine Steckverbindungsvorrichtung zu schaffen, welche es ermöglicht, daß mit dem Zusammenstecken ihrer beiden Stecker, nämlich dem Gerätestecker und dem Kabelstecker nicht nur die Signalkontakte und die Stromversorgung elektrisch leitend verbunden sind, sondern zugleich auch die ankommende Antennenleitung mit der weiterführenden. Darüber hinaus wird insbesondere bei Verwendung der Steckverbindungsvorrichtung in Verbindung mit einem Mobiltelefon auf eine besonders kleine Bauweise und geringes Gewicht geachtet und zwar bei möglichst vielen Kontaktelementen.If such a plug-in connection is to be used, for example in connection with a mobile phone, it is not sufficient if the signal and the power supply are connected in an electrically conductive manner via the contact elements, rather one also has to make an electrically conductive connection of the antenna in the area of the connector device. This is not possible with the generic connector device. It is therefore an object of the invention to provide a plug-in connection device which makes it possible for not only the signal contacts and the power supply to be electrically connected when the two plugs are plugged together, namely the device plug and the cable plug, but also the incoming antenna line to the continuing. In addition, particular attention is paid to a particularly small construction and low weight when using the plug-in connection device in connection with a mobile phone, and that with as many contact elements as possible.

Zur Lösung dieser Aufgabe wird im Dokument GB-A-2 243 034 vorgeschlagen, daß die Steckverbindungsvorrichtung derart gestaltet ist, daß in jedes Steckergehäuse mindestens ein Coaxkontakt integriert ist. Somit kann man sowohl an den Gerätestecker als auch den Kabelstecker das ankommende bzw. das weiterführende Antennenkabel anschließen und man hat dann mit der Verbindung von Gerätestecker und Kabelstecker zugleich auch die durchgehende Verbindung mit der Antenne geschaffen.To solve this problem it is proposed in document GB-A-2 243 034 that the connector device is designed such that at least one coax contact is integrated in each connector housing. This means that you can connect the incoming or outgoing antenna cable to both the connector and the cable connector, and the connection between the connector and the cable connector has also created a continuous connection to the antenna.

Weil bei der Herstellung der beiden Stecker dieser Steckverbindungsvorrichtung wie gesagt auf geringe Größe und kleines Gewicht geachtet werden muß, sind die Abmessungen und damit auch die Wandstärken sehr klein. Andererseits soll aber die Steckverbindungsvorrichtung eine rüttelfeste, mechanisch einigermaßen robuste Verbindung ihrer beiden Stecker gewährleisten, die selbstverständlich in bekannter Weise nur in einer einzigen Zuordnung überhaupt zusammensteckbar sein sollen. Die elektrische Verbindung soll nicht nur im Bereich der Verbindungselemente, also bspw. der Signalkontakte und der Stromversorgungskontakte, einwandfrei und dauerhaft sein, sondern auch im Bereich der Coaxkontakte.Because in the manufacture of the two plugs of this connector device, as mentioned, attention must be paid to small size and light weight, the dimensions and thus the wall thickness are very small. On the other hand, however, the plug-in connection device should ensure a vibration-proof, mechanically somewhat robust connection of its two plugs, which of course should only be able to be plugged together in a known manner in a known manner. The electrical connection should not only be flawless and permanent in the area of the connecting elements, for example the signal contacts and the power supply contacts, but also in the area of the coax contacts.

Um dies zu gewährleisten wird erfindungsgemäß vorgeschlagen, daß jeder Coaxkontakt in eine hülsenförmige Kontaktaufnahme seines Steckergehäuses eingeschoben ist und daß die Kontaktaufnahme durch die kennzeichnende Merkmale des Anspruches 1 definiert ist. Damit nimmt dann auch jeder Coaxkontakt in seinem Steckergehäuse die genau vorgesehene Lage ein und er behält diese auch beim Zusammenstecken und Lösen der beiden Stecker. Vor allen Dingen kann man aber diese beiden hülsenförmigen Kontaktaufnahmen der beiden Steckergehäuse zum leichten und raschen Zusammenfügen der beiden Stecker heranziehen. Sie stellen nicht nur eine zusätzliche Führung und Zentrierhilfe dar, sondern tragen auch dazu bei, daß der Gerätestecker und der Kabelstecker nur in einer einzigen geometrischen Zuordnung zusammengesteckt werden können. Dies schließt natürlich nicht aus, daß man diesbezüglich noch zusätzliche Vorkehrungen durch entsprechende Formgebung trifft. Trotz alledem läßt sich diese Steckverbindungsvorrichtung in einer quasi miniaturisierten Ausführung ohne mechanische und elektrische Nachteile herstellen.In order to ensure this, the invention proposes that each coax contact be in the form of a sleeve Contacting his plug housing is inserted and that the contact is defined by the characterizing features of claim 1. This means that each coax contact in its connector housing takes on the exactly intended position and it also retains this when the two connectors are plugged in and loosened. Above all, you can use these two sleeve-shaped contacts of the two connector housings for easy and quick assembly of the two connectors. They not only represent an additional guide and centering aid, but also contribute to the fact that the device plug and the cable plug can only be plugged together in a single geometric assignment. Of course, this does not exclude that additional precautions are taken in this regard by appropriate shaping. Despite all this, this connector device can be produced in a quasi-miniaturized version without mechanical and electrical disadvantages.

Jeder Coaxkontakt ist gemäß dieser Ausgestaltung der Erfindung rastend, schnappend oder klemmend in seiner Kontaktaufnahme gehalten. Man kann, wie das Ausführungsbeispiel zeigt, bspw. den einen Coaxkontakt schnappend in seinem Gehäuse verankern und den anderen klemmend, wobei zumindest bei letzterem zusätzlich auch noch eine Klebeverbindung vorgesehen werden kann.According to this embodiment of the invention, each coax contact is latched, snapped or clamped in its contact. As the exemplary embodiment shows, one can, for example, snap one coax contact into its housing and clamp the other, whereby at least in the latter case an adhesive connection can also be provided.

Die hülsenförmige Kontaktaufnahme des Kabelsteckers ist somit am mittigen Steg des Gehäuses angebracht, insb. einstückig daran angeformt. Letzteres bietet sich vor allen Dingen deshalb an, weil es sich bevorzugterweise bei den Gehäusen der beiden Stecker um Kunststoffteile handelt.The sleeve-shaped contact of the cable connector is thus attached to the central web of the housing, in particular integrally molded thereon. The latter is particularly useful because the housings of the two plugs are preferably plastic parts.

Es ist insbesondere vorgesehen, daß sich die hülsenförmige Kontaktaufnahme des Kabelsteckers an eine der Schmalseiten des Stegs unmittelbar anschließt. Der Steg wird hierdurch gewissermaßen um diese Hülse verlängert. Dies führt zu einer Verdickung des Steges in diesem Bereich.In particular, it is provided that the sleeve-shaped contact of the cable connector directly adjoins one of the narrow sides of the web. The web is thereby extended to a certain extent by this sleeve. This leads to a thickening of the web in this area.

Nach einer Ausführungsform ist das Kabel nicht unmittelbar an den Kabelstecker angeschlossen, sondern indirekt über die dort erwähnte Leiterplatte. Diese befindet sich am Grund einer Aufnahme, bspw. eines Kraftfahrzeugs, wobei die Kontaktelemente des Kabelsteckers mit den entsprechenden Anschlüssen der Leiterplatte durch die sog. SMD-Technik verbunden und verlötet sind. Wenn sich also diese Aufnahme im Kraftfahrzeug oder auch in einem Wohngebäude o.dgl. befindet, so kann man das Mobiltelefon im Bedarfsfall einfach in diese Aufnahme einstecken und es sind dann sämtliche elektrischen Anschlüsse sofort hergestellt.According to one embodiment, the cable is not connected directly to the cable connector, but indirectly via the printed circuit board mentioned there. This is located at the base of a receptacle, for example a motor vehicle, the contact elements of the cable connector being connected and soldered to the corresponding connections on the printed circuit board using what is known as SMD technology. So if this recording in the motor vehicle or in a residential building or the like. is located, you can simply plug the mobile phone into this receptacle if necessary and all electrical connections are then made immediately.

Wenn man das Mobiltelefon aus dieser Aufnahme herausnimmt, so kann man es ggf. mit einem Kabel verbinden, das sich an einem losen Kabelstecker befindet, wobei letzterer selbstverständlich gleich ausgebildet ist, wie der Kabelstecker der Aufnahme.If you take the mobile phone out of this holder, you can connect it with a cable that is located on a loose cable connector, the latter of course being of the same design as the cable connector of the holder.

Die erfindungsgemäße Steckverbindungsvorrichtung besteht in folgendem Ausführungsbeispiel aus dem Gerätestecker 1 und dem Kabelstecker 2. Gemäß Figur 1 und seiner Bezeichnung befindet sich der Gerätestecker in einem elektrischen Gerät, insb. einem Mobiltelefon, wobei er zweckmäßigerweise mit dessen Gehäuse 3 bündig abschließt oder demgegenüber geringfügig nach innen hin zurückversetzt ist. Er besitzt Kontaktelemente 4, die beim Ausführungsbeispiel gemäß Figur 2 in zwei Reihen angeordnet sind. Im speziellen Falle sind in jeder Reihe neun, also insgesamt achtzehn Kontaktelemente vorgesehen. Desweiteren entnimmt man insbesondere den Figuren 2 und 3, daß gemäß der Erfindung im Steckergehäuse 5 ein Coaxkontakt 6 integriert ist. Er kann von bekannter Konstruktion sein und dient zum Anschluß eines Coaxkabels 7. Im Falle eines Mobiltelefons dient dieser Coaxkontakt 6 zum Anschluß des geräteseitigen Teils eines Coaxkabels 7 bzw. Antennenkabels.The connector device according to the invention in the following exemplary embodiment consists of the device connector 1 and the cable connector 2. According to FIG. 1 and its designation, the connector is located in an electrical device, in particular a mobile phone, it expediently being flush with its housing 3 or, in contrast, being slightly set back inwards. It has contact elements 4 which are arranged in two rows in the exemplary embodiment according to FIG. 2. In the special case, nine, in total eighteen, contact elements are provided in each row. Furthermore, it can be seen in particular from FIGS. 2 and 3 that, according to the invention, a coax contact 6 is integrated in the plug housing 5. It can be of known construction and is used to connect a coax cable 7. In the case of a mobile telephone, this coax contact 6 is used to connect the part of a coax cable 7 or antenna cable on the device side.

Der Kabelstecker 2 ist mit einer der Anzahl der Kontaktelemente 4 des Gerätesteckers 1 entsprechenden Anzahl von Kontaktelementen 8 versehen. Auch diese sind in zwei Reihen à neun Stück vorgesehen. Den Figuren 7 und 9 entnimmt man, daß sich die Kontaktelemente 8 an einem Steg 9 befinden, der einstückig mit dem Steckergehäuse 10 des Kabelsteckers 2 aus Kunststoff gefertigt ist. Desweiteren befindet sich selbstverständlich auch am Kabelstecker 2 ein Coaxkontakt der mit 11 bezeichnet ist. Er dient zum Anschluß des Coaxkabels 7a.The cable connector 2 is provided with a number of contact elements 8 corresponding to the number of contact elements 4 of the device connector 1. These are also planned in two rows of nine. Figures 7 and 9 show that the contact elements 8 are located on a web 9 which is made in one piece with the connector housing 10 of the cable connector 2 from plastic. Furthermore, there is of course also a coax contact on the cable connector 2, which is designated by 11. It serves to connect the coax cable 7a.

Der mittige Steg 9 des Kabelsteckers 2 greift in bekannter Weise in eine Gehäuseaufnahme 12 des Gerätesteckers 1 ein, an deren parallelen Längswänden sich die Kontaktelemente 4 befinden. Auf diese Weise wird durch das Zusammenstecken des Gerätesteckers 1 und des Kabelsteckers 2 der elektrische Kontakt zwischen den einander zugeordneten Kontaktelementen 4 und 8 hergestellt.The central web 9 of the cable connector 2 engages in a known manner in a housing receptacle 12 of the device connector 1, on the parallel longitudinal walls of which the contact elements 4 are located. In this way, the electrical contact between the mutually associated contact elements 4 and 8 is produced by plugging the device connector 1 and the cable connector 2 together.

Der Coaxkontakt 6 befindet sich in einer hülsenförmigen Gehäuseaufnahme 12 des Gerätesteckers 1, die einstückig mit dem Steckergehäuse 5 hergestellt ist. Am Kabelstecker 2 ist gleichfalls eine hülsenförmige Kontaktaufnahme vorgesehen und mit 14 bezeichnet. Die hülsenförmige Kontaktaufnahme 13 des Gerätesteckers 1 geht in die Gehäuseaufnahme 12 über. In diesen Bereich greift die hülsenförmige Kontaktaufnahme 14 des Kabelsteckers 2 ein, wenn man die beiden Stecker zusammensteckt.The coax contact 6 is located in a sleeve-shaped housing receptacle 12 of the connector 1, which is made in one piece with the connector housing 5. On the cable connector 2, a sleeve-shaped contact is also provided and designated 14. The sleeve-shaped contact 13 of the connector 1 merges into the housing 12. The sleeve-shaped contact 14 of the cable connector 2 engages in this area when the two connectors are plugged together.

Der Coaxkontakt 11 des Kabelsteckers 2 ist in seine hülsenförmige Kontaktaufnahme 14 eingepreßt, eingebracht oder auch lediglich eingeschoben und zumindest im letzteren Falle mit der Gehäusebohrung, bspw. in einem mittleren Bereich 15 verklebt.The coax contact 11 of the cable connector 2 is pressed into its sleeve-shaped contact receptacle 14, inserted or even simply pushed in and at least in the latter case is glued to the housing bore, for example in a central region 15.

Stattdessen kann man gemäß Figur 3 den Coaxkontakt 6, insbesondere in seinem mittleren Bereich 16 schnappend oder rastend mit der Kontaktaufnahme 13 verbinden.Instead, according to FIG. 3, the coax contact 6, in particular in its central region 16, can be snapped or latched to the contact 13.

Aus Figur 7 ersieht man, daß die hülsenförmige Kontaktaufnahme 14 seitlich des Stegs 9 angebracht bzw. einstückig damit gefertigt ist und ihr Durchmesser bzw. ihr Außenmantel dicker ist als die Dicke des Stegs 9.It can be seen from FIG. 7 that the sleeve-shaped contact receptacle 14 is attached to the side of the web 9 or is produced in one piece therewith and its diameter or its outer jacket is thicker than the thickness of the web 9.

Ein flacher hülsenförmiger Gehäuseteile 17 des Steckergehäuses 5 des Gerätesteckers 1 besitzt gemäß Figur 2 eine im wesentlichen rechteckige Gestalt, jedoch sind seine beiden in dieser Figur unteren Ecken durch Schrägflächen 18 bzw. 19 ersetzt. Das diesen hülsenförmigen Gehäuseteil 17 aufnehmende Steckergehäuse 10 des Kabelsteckers 2 ist innen mit entsprechenden Schrägflächen 20 und 21 versehen. Diese Schrägflachenpaare 18, 19; 20, 21 gewährleisten, daß der Gerätestecker 1 und der Kabelstecker 2 nur in einer einzigen Zuordnung zusammengesteckt werden können. Eine weitere, dieses anschlußsichere Zusammenstecken gewährleistende Einrichtung wird durch die beiden hülsenförmigen Kontaktaufnahmen 13 und 14 gewährleistet, die nur dann zusammengesteckt werden können, wenn die Schrägflächen der beiden Gehäuse 5 und 10 aneinander anliegen. Es ist aber nicht nur Sinn und Zweck dieser hülsenförmigen Kontaktaufnahmen 13 und 14, das korrekte elektrische Verbinden der Coaxkabel 7 und 7a zu gewährleisten. Vielmehr wird hierdurch auch die Zentrierung beim Zusammenstecken der Stecker 1 und 2 unterstützt bzw. verbessert. Die Gehäuseaufnahme, in welcher sich der Steg 9 befindet, und die den flachen hülsenförmigen Gehäuseteil 17 des Steckergehäuses 5 aufnimmt, ist mit 22 bezeichnet.A flat, sleeve-shaped housing part 17 of the connector housing 5 of the connector 1 has an essentially rectangular shape according to FIG. 2, but its two corners, which are lower in this figure, are replaced by inclined surfaces 18 and 19, respectively. The connector housing 10 of the cable connector 2 receiving this sleeve-shaped housing part 17 is provided on the inside with corresponding inclined surfaces 20 and 21. These sloping surface pairs 18, 19; 20, 21 ensure that the connector 1 and the cable connector 2 can only be plugged together in a single assignment. A further, this connection-secure plugging device is ensured by the two sleeve-shaped contact receptacles 13 and 14, which can only be plugged together when the inclined surfaces of the two housings 5 and 10 abut each other. However, it is not only the purpose of these sleeve-shaped contacts 13 and 14 to ensure the correct electrical connection of the coax cables 7 and 7a. Rather, this also supports or improves the centering when the connectors 1 and 2 are plugged together. The housing receptacle in which the web 9 is located, and which receives the flat, sleeve-shaped housing part 17 of the plug housing 5 is designated by 22.

Gemäß insbesondere Figuren 5 und 6 sind die Kontaktelemente 4 des Gerätesteckers 1 in sog. SMD-Technik mit den elektrischen Leitern des Geräts bzw. des Mobiltelefons verbunden, wobei sich diese gemäß den Darstellungen der Figuren 1 bis 6 an einer Leiterplatte 23 befinden. Die Leiterplatte 23 der Figur 5 ist nur an ihrer Oberseite mit sog. pads versehen, auf welchen die freien Enden der Kontaktelemente 4 aufliegen und die gewissermaßen die Endpunkte der in Figur 2 symbolisch eingezeichneten elektrischen Leiter 24 der Leiterplatte bzw. des Geräts oder des Mobiltelefons darstellen. Beim Ausführungsbeispiel der Figur 6 befinden sich an beiden Flachseiten der Leiterplatte 23 elektrische Leiter bzw. Pads, weswegen diese Leiterplatte zwischen die beiden Kontaktelementgruppen eingesteckt ist, so daß an beiden Seiten die Kontaktelemente 4 des Gerätesteckers 1 anliegen. Im übrigen ist bei diesem Ausführungsbeispiel der Gerätestecker 1 an der Leiterplatte 23 mit Hilfe zweier Niete 25 und 26 angenietet.According to FIGS. 5 and 6 in particular, the contact elements 4 of the device connector 1 are connected to the electrical conductors of the device or of the mobile telephone using so-called SMD technology, these being located on a printed circuit board 23 as shown in FIGS. 1 to 6. The circuit board 23 of FIG. 5 is provided with so-called pads only on its upper side, on which the free ends of the contact elements 4 rest and which to a certain extent represent the end points of the electrical conductors 24 of the circuit board or of the device or of the mobile telephone, which are symbolically drawn in FIG . In the exemplary embodiment in FIG. 6, there are electrical conductors or pads on both flat sides of the printed circuit board 23, which is why this printed circuit board is inserted between the two contact element groups, so that the contact elements 4 of the device connector 1 rest on both sides. Moreover, in this embodiment, the connector 1 is riveted to the circuit board 23 with the aid of two rivets 25 and 26.

Das Steckergehäuse 10 des Kabelsteckers 2 ist gemäß Figur 8 mit einem T-förmigen Gehäuseansatz 27 versehen, der in nicht näher dargestellter Weise in eine formlich angepaßte Aufnahme eines zweiteiligen Stecker-Endgehäuses 28 eingreift und dadurch eine feste Verbindung mit diesem Stecker-Endgehäuse gewährleistet. Die Teilungsebene dieses Endgehäuses 28 verläuft gemäß Figur 10 parallel zur Blattebene.According to FIG. 8, the connector housing 10 of the cable connector 2 is provided with a T-shaped housing extension 27, which engages in a formally adapted receptacle of a two-part connector end housing 28 in a manner that is not shown in detail, and thereby provides a fixed connection with this connector end housing guaranteed. The division plane of this end housing 28 runs parallel to the leaf plane according to FIG. 10.

Beim Ausführungsbeispiel der Figur 11 sind die vom Gerätestecker 1 abgewandten, über das Steckergehäuse 10 vorstehenden Enden 29 der Kontaktelemente 8 des Kabelsteckers 2 gegen die Außenflächen 30, 31 des Steckergehäuses 10 hin umgebogen. Dieses Steckergehäuse 10 ist steckbar mit einer weiteren Leiterplatte 32 verbunden, an der sich Leiterbahnen 33 bzw. Pads befinden. In nicht näher dargestellter Weise ist diese weitere Leiterplatte 32 bspw. am Grund einer Aufnahme bspw. eines Kraftfahrzeugs für das Mobiltelefon angebracht. Die Leiterbahnen 38 sind mit dem Coaxkabel 7a elektrisch leitend verbunden. Außerdem sind die Leiterplatte 32 und das Steckergehäuse 10 über zwei Steckverbindungen gekuppelt, wobei in Figur 11 ein Stift 34 der einen Steckerverbindung zu sehen ist, der in eine Bohrung 35 der Leiterplatte 32 eingreift, und wobei letztere in Figur 11 an dieser Stelle aufgebrochen gezeichnet ist. Diese Verbindung kann so ausgebildet sein, daß sie einschnappt oder einrastet. Es kann auch eine Einpressung oder eine Warmverprägung erfolgen. Nach dem Zusammenstecken werden die umgebogenen Enden 29 der Kontaktelemente 8 und die Pads bzw. Leiterbahnen 33 der Leiterplatte 32 in bekannter Weise miteinander verlötet, wobei in Figur 13 eine solche Lötstelle 36 zu sehen ist. Diese Ausbildung ist natürlich nur dann sinnvoll, wenn auch hinsichtlich des Coaxkabels 7, 7a bzw. des Coaxkontakts 11 eine SMD-Technik angewandt wird. Aus diesem Grunde sind auch die elektrischen Anschlüsse in Form von umgebogenen Zungen 37 nach außen geführt und Leiterbahnen 38 zugeordnet.In the exemplary embodiment in FIG. 11, the ends 29 of the contact elements 8 of the cable connector 2 which face away from the connector 1 and project beyond the connector housing 10 are bent toward the outer surfaces 30, 31 of the connector housing 10. This connector housing 10 is pluggably connected to a further printed circuit board 32 on which there are conductor tracks 33 or pads. In a manner not shown, this further circuit board 32 is attached, for example, to the base of a receptacle, for example, of a motor vehicle for the mobile phone. The conductor tracks 38 are electrically conductively connected to the coax cable 7a. In addition, the printed circuit board 32 and the connector housing 10 are coupled via two plug connections, a pin 34 of the one plug connection being shown in FIG. 11, which engages in a bore 35 in the printed circuit board 32, and the latter being shown broken open in FIG. 11 at this point . This connection can be designed so that it snaps or snaps into place. Press-in or hot stamping can also take place. After being plugged together, the bent ends 29 of the contact elements 8 and the pads or conductor tracks 33 of the printed circuit board 32 are soldered to one another in a known manner, such a solder joint 36 being shown in FIG. This training is Of course, this only makes sense if SMD technology is also used with regard to the coax cable 7, 7a or the coax contact 11. For this reason, the electrical connections in the form of bent tongues 37 are also guided to the outside and assigned to conductor tracks 38.
