Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a seal for a waterproof connector.
  • the invention relates to a seal intended for use with connectors comprising a female housing element having a skirt intended to receive a male housing element and in which extend pins intended to cooperate with female electrical connection members. of the male housing element, said seal being mounted in the skirt and having conduits through which the pins pass.
  • One of the aims of the present invention is to produce a seal of the above type which allows the housing elements to be coupled and uncoupled without the risk of reducing its effectiveness.
  • the seal according to the invention is intended to be used with electrical connectors of the type comprising a female housing element having a skirt intended to receive a male housing element, said female housing element comprising an insulating element in which are housed connecting members extended by pins which protrude into the skirt, while the male housing element is provided with an extension fitting into the skirt and in which is fixed an insulating body receiving female electrical connecting members intended to cooperate with the pins,
  • the seal being of the type made of flexible and elastic material comprising a base with chimneys pierced with conduits for the passage of the pins, said seal being engaged in the skirt to bear, by its base, against the element insulator of said female housing element, said seal being characterized in that each conduit, starting from the base, pr feel a first cylindrical part extended by a shaped portion of a reversed truncated cone, itself extended by a part in the form of a truncated cone, terminated by a second cylindrical part, while the base is bordered by a rim in the vicinity of which
  • Another advantage of the invention is that the seal does not constitute a brake forcing the insertion force of the male housing element to be increased in the female housing element.
  • the first cylindrical part has a diameter slightly smaller than that of the pins.
  • the second cylindrical part has a diameter greater than that of the pins.
  • Figure 1 is a plan view of a joint according to the invention.
  • Figure 2 is a sectional view on a larger scale, along line 2-2 of Figure 1.
  • Figure 3 shows in section an electrical connection box provided with a seal, according to the invention, in the disassembled position.
  • Figure 4 is a sectional view of the electrical connection box of Figure 3 in the mounted position.
  • Figure 5 is a view of a detail on a larger scale.
  • the seal shown in FIGS. 1 and 2 is made of a flexible and elastic material and has a base 1, a peripheral rim 2 and a series of chimneys 5.
  • Each chimney has a duct 3 which, in the vicinity of the base 1, has a first cylindrical part 3a connected on the side opposite to the base 1 to an inverted frustoconical part 3b whose large base is itself connected to a frustoconical part 3c terminated by a second cylindrical part 3d.
  • the diameter of part 3a is slightly smaller than that of part 3d.
  • the seal includes, above the peripheral rim, a continuous lip 4.
  • Figures 3, 4 and 5 show a connector for receiving a seal, according to the invention.
  • the connector comprises a first female housing element 10 comprising a metal casing 11 extended, on one side, by a skirt 12.
  • an insulating element 13 supporting a series of electrical connection members 17 connected to electrical conductors and extended by pins 14.
  • the end of the element 10, opposite the skirt, is filled with either an adhesive or a resin 16 which seals the element 10 tightly including the conductors 15.
  • the seal is mounted in the skirt 12 so that its base 1 cooperates with the corresponding face 13a of the insulating element 13, a thin layer of adhesive being applied to this face.
  • the parts 3a of the conduits 3 have a diameter slightly less than the diameter of the pins 14, while the parts 3d have a diameter greater than that of the said pins.
  • the female housing element 10 has, at each end (see FIG. 5), a nut 18 for fixing it with a male housing element 20.
  • the male housing element 20 comprises a metal casing 21 having an extension 22 intended to be inserted in the skirt 12 and in which is mounted an insulating body 24 in which are housed and fixed female members of electrical connections 25 intended to receive , each, a pin 14. Each member 25 is connected to a conductor (not shown).
  • the male box element 20, on the side opposite the extension 22, is closed with an adhesive or a resin 27.
  • the male housing element 20 comprises, at each end, a captive screw 28 (see FIG. 5) intended to be screwed into the nut 18 in order to ensure the assembly of the two housing elements.
  • the free end of the insulating body 24 comes to bear against the edge of the conduits 3 opposite the base and thus tends to slightly crush the joint so that the 3d parts, by sliding slightly on the pins, enclose the latter.
  • the housing elements can be coupled or uncoupled many times without risk to the seal.
