Abstract
Description
Die vorliegende Erfindung betrifft einen Kontakteträger für das Mehrfach-Beschalten von Printplatten o. dgl., mit Mitteln zur lötfreien Schneid-Klemm-Andrahtung.The present invention relates to a contact carrier for the multiple wiring of printed circuit boards or the like, with means for solderless insulation displacement connection.
In allen Bereichen der Schwachstromtechnik gewinnt die lötfreie Andrahtung erheblich an Bedeutung. In diesem Zusammenhang beschreibt die gleiche Anmelderin in ihrem CH-Patent 660'935 einen Stecker, insbesondere Rangierstecker, mit einem ansich bekannten Schneid-Klemm-Anschluss, welcher gestattet, einen Draht lötfrei am Anschluss zu fixieren, indem dieser Draht samt seiner Isolation in eine Kerbe eingedrückt wird, wobei die Kanten der Kerbe die Isolation durchschneiden und gering in das Leitermaterial unter Herstellung eines elektrischen Kontaktes eindringen.In all areas of low-voltage technology, solderless wiring is becoming increasingly important. In this context, the same applicant describes in her Swiss Patent 660,935 a plug, in particular a marshalling plug, with a known insulation displacement connection, which allows a wire to be fixed to the connection without soldering, by this wire and its insulation being inserted into one Notch is pushed in, the edges of the notch cutting through the insulation and making little in the conductor material of an electrical contact.
Diese lötfreie Schneid-Klemm-Andrahtung drängt sich auch bei modularen Steckverbindern für Telefon- oder Schwachstromanlagen auf, bei denen sich für den Drahtabstand bzw. Kontaktstiftabstand genormte oder doch normähnliche Raster herausgebildet haben, wobei dann für jeden Draht bzw. jede Ader ein länglicher Draht-Einlegeschlitz vorgesehen ist, der an einer Stelle von der querstehenden Klemmschneide der in der Regel senkrecht zum Einlegeschlitz abragenden Kontaktstifte durchsetzt ist.This solderless insulation displacement connection is also necessary for modular connectors for telephone or low-voltage systems, in which standardized or standard-like grids have developed for the wire spacing or contact pin spacing, with an elongated wire for each wire or wire. Insert slot is provided which is penetrated at one point by the transverse clamping cutting edge of the contact pins, which generally protrude perpendicularly to the insert slot.
Entsprechend betrifft das EP-Patent 310 832 der gleichen Anmelderin bereits einen Mehrfach-Kontaktstifthalter eines modularen Steckverbinders für Telefon- oder Schwachstromanlagen, mit Mitteln zur lötfreien Schneid-Klemm-Andrahtung, bei welchem die Mittel zur Schneid-Klemm-Andrahtung einen, auf den Körper des Kontaktstifthalters niederdrückbaren Schwenkdeckel umfassen, von welchem kontaktseitige Druckrippen abragen, die beim Niederdrücken des Deckels auf den Körper in dessen Draht-Einlegeschlitze eindringen und die eingelegten Drähte in die Klemmschneiden der Kontaktstifte pressen.Accordingly, EP patent 310 832 by the same applicant already relates to a multiple contact pin holder of a modular connector for telephone or low-voltage systems, with means for solderless insulation displacement connection, in which the insulation displacement connection means unites onto the body of the contact pin holder include swiveling cover, from which contact-side pressure ribs protrude, which penetrate into the wire insertion slots when the cover is pressed onto the body and press the inserted wires into the clamping cutters of the contact pins.
Für eine noch kompaktere Bauweise, wie dies für das Mehrfach-Beschalten von Printplatten erforderlich ist, ist aber eine Ausführung mit Schwenkdeckel nicht mehr anwendbar.For an even more compact design, such as this for multiple wiring of printed circuit boards is required, but a version with a swivel cover is no longer applicable.
Es ist deshalb Aufgabe der vorliegenden Erfindung, einen Kontakteträger für eine Mehrfach-Beschaltung von Printplatten zu schaffen, bei dem die lötfreie Schneid-Klemm-Andrahtung trotz geringster Abmessungen schnell, sicher und absolut problemlos erfolgen kann.It is therefore an object of the present invention to provide a contact carrier for multiple wiring of printed circuit boards, in which the solderless insulation displacement connection can be carried out quickly, safely and without any problems, despite the smallest dimensions.
Dies wird erfindungsgemäss dadurch erreicht, dass die Mittel zur Schneid-Klemm-Andrahtung mindestens eine, auf dem Kontakteträger niederdrückbare Taste umfassen, welche kontaktseitige Druckabragungen aufweist, die beim Niederdrücken der Taste auf den Kontakteträger in dessen Draht-Einlegeschlitze eindringen und die eingelegten Drähte in die Klemmschneiden der Kontaktlötfahnen oder -stifte pressen.This is achieved according to the invention in that the means for insulation displacement wiring comprise at least one button that can be pressed on the contact carrier, which has contact-side pressure deposits that penetrate into the wire insertion slots when the button is pressed on the contact carrier and the inserted wires into the Press clamping edges of the contact lugs or pins.
Durch diese Massnahmen ist das Problem der Druckausübung auf die Drähte resp. Adern trotz engster Platzverhältnisse umfänglich gelöst, wobei eine solche erfindungsgemässe Taste so breit gemacht werden kann, dass sich mehrere Drähte, beispielsweise vier, gleichzeitig in die Klemmschneiden der zugeordneten Kontaktlötfahnen eindrücken lassen.Through these measures, the problem of pressure on the wires resp. Wires extensively solved in spite of the tightest space, such a button according to the invention can be made so wide that several wires, for example four, can be pressed simultaneously into the clamping edges of the associated contact solder tags.
Vorzugsweise werden dabei die Tasten lösbar am Kontakteträger sowohl in einer der Vormontage dienenden Offenstellung als auch in ihrer Kontakt verursachenden Stellung verriegelbar.The buttons are preferably releasably lockable on the contact carrier both in an open position serving for pre-assembly and in their position causing contact.
Ferner bestehen vorteilhafte Ausgestaltungen dann, wenn die Taste U-förmige Druckabragungen aufweist für die gleichzeitige Beschaltung der Klemmschneiden in mindestens zwei Draht-Einlegeschlitzen; oder, wenn die Taste eine stempelförmige Druckabragung mit Zwischensteg aufweist für die gleichzeitige Beschaltung von parallelen Klemmschneiden im Draht-Einlegeschlitz.Furthermore, there are advantageous configurations when the button has U-shaped pressure deposits for the simultaneous connection of the clamping cutting edges in at least two wire insertion slots; or, if the button has a stamp-shaped pressure cut-off with an intermediate web for the simultaneous connection of parallel clamping edges in the wire insertion slot.
Für eine optimale Betätigung der Taste ist es zudem vorteilhaft, wenn die Taste obenseitig eine nutenartige Vertiefung zum Ansetzen eines Schraubenziehers oder dgl. zum Niederdrücken der Taste aufweist.For an optimal actuation of the button, it is also advantageous if the button has a groove-like depression on the top for attaching a screwdriver or the like for depressing the button.
