Abstract

An electrical connector has a plug unit (1) that has a number of contact pin elements (3) that are located in parallel within formed chambers (2). The ends of the pins are formed with spring elements (4) that expand to engage a recessed section to securely retain them within the housing. The top section of the pins fit within the bores and have sealing elements (5) to protect against moisture. The plug engages a bush-type mating socket and built into the socket is a mechanical interlock unit (7) that reacts to the relative movement between the bush and socket and a transverse motion occurs to securely latch the parts.

Description

Die Erfindung betrifft eine elektrische Steckverbindung mit den im Oberbegriff des Patentanspruchs 1 bzw. 2 angegebenen Merkmalen.The invention relates to an electrical connector with the features specified in the preamble of claim 1 or 2.

Eine derartige Steckverbindung ist aus der DE 41 15 119 C2 bekannt. Das Verriegelungsteil wird nach Einfügen der Steckkontaktelemente in einem separaten Arbeitsgang und mit Hilfe eines gesonderten Werkzeugs von der Ent- in die Verriegelungsstellung übergeführt. Dieser Arbeitsgang findet vor dem Zusammenfugen von Stecker- und Buchsenteil statt.Such a connector is known from DE 41 15 119 C2. After the plug-in contact elements have been inserted, the locking part is transferred from the unlocking position to the locking position in a separate operation and with the aid of a separate tool. This step takes place before the male and female parts are joined together.

Zum einen erfordert das Verriegelungsteil einen gesonderten Arbeitsgang, um in die Wirkstellung gebracht zu werden. Zum anderen ist es möglich, die beiden Steckverbindungsteile auch dann zusammenzustecken, wenn das Verriegelungsteil noch in seiner Entriegelungsstellung liegt. Da die tatsächliche Stellung des Verriegelungsteils zumindest dann nicht mehr erkennbar ist, wenn die Steckverbindung geschlossen ist, können sich aufgrund der fehlenden Wirkung des Verriegelungsteils Probleme ergeben. Da die Steckverbindung in ihrer Wirkung einer Steckverbindung ohne Verriegelungsteil entspricht, können sich bei größerer und/oder längerer Belastung die Steckkontaktelemente aus ihren Kammern herausbewegen und damit zu einer Unterbrechung der jeweiligen Steckkontakte fuhren. Eine derartige Situation ist von außen nicht erkennbar und führt in aller Regel dazu, den Fehler nicht in der elektrischen Steckverbindung, sondern an anderer Stelle, z. B. beim Anschlußkontakt eines zugehörigen Steuergeräts oder in diesem selbst zu suchen. Die Folgen sind höhere Reparaturaufwendungen und möglicherweise überflüssiger Austausch von Steuergeräten und dergleichen.On the one hand, the locking part requires a separate operation in order to be brought into the active position. On the other hand, it is also possible to plug the two plug-in connection parts together when the locking part is still in its unlocked position. Since the actual position of the locking part is at least no longer recognizable when the plug connection is closed, problems can arise due to the lack of action of the locking part. Since the plug connection corresponds in its effect to a plug connection without a locking part, the plug contact elements can move out of their chambers when the load is greater and / or longer and thus lead to an interruption of the respective plug contacts. Such a situation is not recognizable from the outside and usually leads to the fault not in the electrical connector, but elsewhere, e.g. B. in the connection contact of an associated control unit or to look for it yourself. The consequences are higher repair costs and possibly unnecessary replacement of control units and the like.

Der Erfindung liegt die Aufgabe zugrunde, eine elektrische Steckverbindung der eingangs genannten Art zu schaffen, bei der ohne zusätzlichen Arbeitsaufwand sichergestellt ist, daß bei geschlossener Steckverbindung das Verriegelungselement in wirkstellung, d. h. in der Verriegelungsstellung sitzt.The invention has for its object to provide an electrical connector of the type mentioned, in which it is ensured without additional work that when the connector is closed, the locking element in the operative position, d. H. sits in the locked position.

Die Erfindung löst diese Aufgabe für eine elektrische Steckverbindung der beschriebenen Art für das Verriegelungsteil des Steckerteils mit den kennzeichnenden Merkmalen des Patentanspruchs 1 und für das Verriegelungsteil des Buchsenteils mit den kennzeichnenden Merkmalen des Patentanspruchs 2.The invention solves this problem for an electrical plug connection of the type described for the locking part of the plug part with the characterizing features of patent claim 1 and for the locking part of the socket part with the characterizing features of patent claim 2.

Wesentlich ist, daß durch das jeweilige korrespondierende Steckverbindungsteil das Verriegelungsteil selbsttätig beim Zusammenstecken der Steckverbindung in die Wirkstellung gebracht wird bzw., sofern es sich schon in dieser Stellung befindet, in dieser Stellung gehalten wird. In jedem Fall steht fest, daß bei geschlossener Steckverbindung die jeweiligen Verriegelungsteile wirksam sind und mit großer Sicherheit ein ggf. auftretender Leitungsfehler nicht durch ein Lösen eines Steckkontaktes verursacht ist. Sollte dennoch ein Fehler auftreten, so kann dieser in aller Regel nur an einer anderen Stelle liegen.It is essential that the respective corresponding plug connection part automatically brings the locking part into the operative position when the plug connection is plugged together or, if it is already in this position, it is held in this position. In any case, it is certain that the respective locking parts are effective when the plug connection is closed and that a line fault that may occur is not caused by loosening a plug contact with great certainty. Should an error nevertheless occur, it can usually only be found at another location.

Die konstruktive Ausgestaltung der Erfindung ist auf verschiedene Weise möglich. In den Patentansprüchen 3 und 4 sind Beispiele hierfür angegeben. Je nach Gestaltung des Stecker- bzw. Kupplungsteils kann beispielsweise eine der beiden Möglichkeiten für die konstruktive Ausgestaltung des Verriegelungsteils und sein Zusammenwirken mit dem korrespondierenden Steckverbindungsteil eingesetzt werden. Durch die Merkmale des Patentanspruchs 5 wird eine Möglichkeit geschaffen, die Betätigungskräfte für die Querbewegung des Verriegelungsteils gerade in der Anfangsphase geringzuhalten. Gleichzeitig wird durch die Anlaufschräge sichergestellt, daß das Zusammenspiel von Verriegelungsteil und dem korrespondierenden Steckverbindungsteil in der gewünschten Weise erfolgt und das Verriegelungsteil sicher in die Verriegelungsstellung ubergeführt wird.The design of the invention is possible in various ways. Examples of this are given in patent claims 3 and 4. Depending on the design of the plug or coupling part, for example, one of the two options for the structural design of the locking part and its interaction with the corresponding connector part are used. Due to the features of claim 5, a possibility is created to keep the actuating forces for the transverse movement of the locking part low, especially in the initial phase. At the same time, the chamfer ensures that the interplay between the locking part and the corresponding plug-in connection part takes place in the desired manner and that the locking part is securely transferred into the locking position.

Das Steckerteil 1 mit seinem Gehäuse 1' von Fig. 1 und 2 besitzt mehrere parallele durchgehende Kammern 2, in die vom rückwärtigen Ende (in der Zeichnung von rechts) her Steckkontaktelemente 3 einsetzbar sind. Spreizfedern 4 halten die Steckkontaktelemente 3 in der jeweiligen Kammer 2. Abdichtelemente 5 schützen die Kammer vor Feuchtigkeit und dergleichen. Das angeschlossene Kabel ist mit 6 bezeichnet. Innerhalb des Gehäuses 1' befindet sich ein Verriegelungsteil 7, das sich eingezeichnet in der Entriegelungsstellung befindet und das, wie weiter unten näher erläutert, quer zur Ausrichtung der Kammern 2, d. h. in der Figur nach unten, beweglich ist. Hierzu ist das Verriegelungsteil 7 mit einer Zunge 8 versehen, die mit dem Buchsenteil von Fig. 3 und 4 zusammenwirkt. Die Zunge 8 besitzt eine Anlaufschräge 9. Sie ist zweigeteilt und symmetrisch zu der in der Zeichnung tiefsten Kammer 2 angeordnet.The plug part 1 with its housing 1 'of FIGS. 1 and 2 has a plurality of parallel, continuous chambers 2 into which plug contact elements 3 can be inserted from the rear end (from the right in the drawing). Spreading springs 4 hold the plug contact elements 3 in the respective chamber 2. Sealing elements 5 protect the chamber from moisture and the like. The connected cable is with 6 designated. Inside the housing 1 'there is a locking part 7 which is shown in the unlocked position and which, as explained in more detail below, is movable transversely to the alignment of the chambers 2, ie downwards in the figure. For this purpose, the locking part 7 is provided with a tongue 8 which interacts with the socket part of FIGS. 3 and 4. The tongue 8 has a run-on slope 9. It is divided in two and arranged symmetrically to the deepest chamber 2 in the drawing.

Das in den Figuren 3 und 4 gezeigte Buchsenteil 10 mit seinem Gehäuse 11 besitzt ebenfalls durchgehende Kammern 12, die parallel angeordnet sind und in denen Buchsenkontaktelemente (nicht dargestellt) angeordnet sind, die mit den Steckkontaktelementen 3 zusammenwirken. Die Kammern 12 sind ebenfalls durchgängig. Ein Verriegelungsteil 17 ist mit seiner Entriegelungsstellung eingezeichnet und quer beweglich (in der Zeichnung nach unten) ausgestaltet. Es besitzt eine Anlaufschräge 19 und steht mit seinem in der Zeichnung oberen Rand aus der Oberflache des Gehäuses 11 hervor. Auf dem Gehäuse 11 ist ferner ein Bajonettring 13 drehbeweglich gelagert.The socket part 10 shown in FIGS. 3 and 4 with its housing 11 also has continuous chambers 12 which are arranged in parallel and in which socket contact elements (not shown) are arranged which cooperate with the plug contact elements 3. The chambers 12 are also continuous. A locking part 17 is shown with its unlocked position and designed to be movable transversely (downward in the drawing). It has a run-on slope 19 and, with its upper edge in the drawing, protrudes from the surface of the housing 11. A bayonet ring 13 is also rotatably mounted on the housing 11.

Zum Zusammensetzen der Steckverbindung werden das steckerteil 1 und das Buchsenteil 10 an den mit A und B bezeichneten Seiten zusammengeführt. Das Steckerteil 1 dringt dabei in das Buchsenteil 10 bis zu einer Vorraststellung ein, in der sich die korrespondierenden Steckkontakt- und Buchsenkontaktelemente gegenüberstehen und die Verriegelungsteile 7 und 17 noch die eingezeichnete Lage besitzen.To assemble the plug connection, the plug part 1 and the socket part 10 are brought together on the sides labeled A and B. The plug part 1 penetrates into the socket part 10 up to a pre-locking position in which the corresponding plug contact and socket contact elements face each other and the locking parts 7 and 17 still have the position shown.

Anschließend wird der Bajonettring 13 gegenüber dem Buchsengehäuse 11 verdreht. Die Kontaktelemente werden dadurch kontaktgebend miteinander in Verbindung gebracht.The bayonet ring 13 is then rotated relative to the socket housing 11. The contact elements are thereby brought into contact with one another.

Gleichzeitig wird durch den mit 17' bezeichneten Fortsatz des Steckerteilgehäuses 1' das Verriegelungsteil 17 verdrängt. Der vorstehende Rand des Verriegelungsteils wird herabgedrückt. Dadurch wird das Verriegelungsteil 17 in seine Verriegelungsstellung gebracht, in der sein Rand bündig in der Oberfläche des Buchsengehäuses 11 liegt. Ebenfalls gleichzeitig schwimmt ein zweigeteilter Ansatz 18 des Buchsengehäuses 11 über die Anlaufschräge 9 auf der Zunge 8 auf und drückt diese zusammen mit dem Verriegelungsteil 7 in die Verriegelungsstellung, d. h., in Fig. 1 und 2, nach unten. In dieser Stellung wird das Verriegelungsteil 7 durch nicht dargestellte Verriegelungsmittel verrastet.At the same time, the locking part 17 is displaced by the extension of the plug part housing 1 ′, designated 17 ′. The protruding edge of the locking part is pressed down. As a result, the locking part 17 is brought into its locking position, in which its edge lies flush with the surface of the socket housing 11. Also at the same time, a two-part extension 18 of the socket housing 11 floats over the run-up slope 9 on the tongue 8 and presses it together with the locking part 7 into the locking position, i. i.e., in Figs. 1 and 2, down. In this position, the locking part 7 is locked by locking means, not shown.

Wesentlich ist, daß die Verriegelungsteile 7 und 17 ohne vorbereitenden Arbeitsschritt selbsttätig bei dem Zusammenfügen der Steckverbindung in ihre Verriegelungsstellung durch das korrespondierende Steckverbindungsteil gebracht werden. In dieser Stellung können sie verrastet sein, so daß nach dem erneuten Öffnen der Steckverbindung die Verriegelungsteile weiter wirksam sind. Dadurch ist die Gefahr eines Lockerns der Steckkontaktelemente bei geöffneter Steckverbindung ausgeschlossen.It is essential that the locking parts 7 and 17 are automatically brought into their locking position by the corresponding plug connection part when the plug connection is put together without a preparatory work step. In this position they can be locked, so that the locking parts are still effective after reopening the connector. This eliminates the risk of the plug contact elements becoming loose when the plug connection is open.

Sofern es erforderlich ist, die Verriegelungsteile in ihre Ausgangsstellung zu bringen, kann dies durch ein geeignetes Werkzeug, z. B. einen konventionellen Schraubendreher, bei geöffneter Steckverbindung vorgenommen werden. Das Werkzeug greift durch einen Durchbruch 13' im Bajonettring 13 hindurch und verschiebt das Verriegelungsteil 17 in die eingezeichnete Stellung. Durch axiales Einschieben des Werkzeugs zwischen das Gehäuse 1' und die Zunge 8 kann die Zunge 8 und damit das Verriegelungsteil 7 verdrängt und ebenfalls in die eingezeichnete Stellung gebracht werden.If it is necessary to bring the locking parts into their starting position, this can be done using a suitable tool, e.g. B. a conventional screwdriver, with the connector open. The tool reaches through an opening 13 'in the bayonet ring 13 and moves the locking part 17 into the position shown. By axially inserting the tool between the housing 1 'and the tongue 8, the tongue 8 and thus the locking part 7 can be displaced and also brought into the position shown.
