Definitions

  • the invention relates to an RF connector system with a standardized socket insert and a corresponding plug as connector parts, in which system an earthed shield from cable to cable is guided through both connector parts.
  • connector systems There are various brands of connector systems on the market, for example with four, six, eight, ten, twelve, fourteen or more poles, as the contacts are also called. In these systems, incorrect connections are avoided by the connectors having certain geometric shapes and / or external dimensions or being equipped with a coding device.
  • Connector systems are used in particular for electrical connections to communication main and peripheral devices, for example ISDN, telephone, terminal and modem, as well as PC, host or data network systems.
  • communication main and peripheral devices for example ISDN, telephone, terminal and modem, as well as PC, host or data network systems.
  • RF cables of known design generally consist of copper wires embedded in a flexible mass, a peripheral shield and an outer insulation jacket.
  • the screen comprises at least one braid, fabric or knitted fabric made of copper wires, on the inside of which an aluminum foil can rest.
  • Such an HF cable has a defined minimum permissible bending radius, which in conventional makes is at least four to five times the outer diameter of the cable. If these bending radii are undershot, disruptions or even business interruptions can be expected.
  • the shields must be used in the area of HF connector systems the cable of a socket insert and the associated plug must be connected to one another in an electrically conductive manner, because otherwise the ground connection is not continuously guaranteed.
  • the present invention is therefore based on the object of creating an RF connector system of the type mentioned which also has a low electrical resistance of a few at frequencies in the range of approximately 108 Hz Ohm has, the RF cable is not burdened by bending radii that are too small and has a shorter overall length.
  • the shield is connected over a large area to the metal braid of the HF cable of one and / or the other connector part, this shield with a large surface area in relation to the cross section and at least one flexible area outside the insulation jacket to large contact areas for the complementary one Connector part is guided, the cable end is adjustable at an adjustable angle.
  • the present also includes plastic parts that also serve as electrical insulation and are known to the person skilled in the art, which is why they are not discussed in more detail here.
  • the HF connector system usually comprises a printed circuit board and contact elements with the corresponding cabling.
  • the two connector parts of an HF connector system are a socket insert and a corresponding plug.
  • the design of a socket insert, which is permanently mounted, is particularly preferred.
  • the short length of a connector is less important in practice, but it can make sense in special cases.
  • An RF cable is connected over a large area if its shield is completely and electrically conductively encased by a shield, preferably over a length at least approximately corresponding to the radius of the cable.
  • the surface of the shield is said to be large in relation to the cross section if its surface is at least 50% of the surface of the shield in the HF cable, based on the same length.
  • the shield is electrically connected over at least 50% of the shield circumference.
  • this shield is referred to below as braid, even if it is a fabric, a knitted fabric and / or an aluminum foil.
  • the term shielding is used exclusively for the connection area of two cables in an HF connector system.
  • the shield preferably consists of an at least zone-wise bendable and / or foldable, in particular a one-piece, sheet made of an electrically highly conductive material.
  • Well machinable metal sheets for example made of brass, copper, aluminum or iron, are particularly suitable. These metal sheets can also be coated accordingly to increase the electrical conductivity, e.g. by tinning, silvering or gold plating.
  • the transfer resistance plays a decisive role in HF connector systems, in particular at very high frequencies, more complicated shields are preferably formed in one piece in all cases. If the shielding is in several parts and / or it comprises further parts, such as an integrated housing cover, the connection must be electrically conductive, for example by plugging, jamming, welding or the like.
  • the shielding consists of a stiff shield connection on the cable, an equally stiff, laterally open shield housing and a flexible sheet metal connecting the two stiff components made of electrically good conductive metal.
  • This shield can also be punched out in one piece from a sheet metal and folded, for example, using a suitable folding device.
  • two parallel predetermined bending areas are preferably formed by reducing the sheet cross-section at the relevant location. It is important to ensure that the sheet is bent as round as possible, not folded, which is promoted by round punching lines.
  • the flexibly designed sheet between a stiff shield connection and a stiff shield housing can be fulfilled with all the means equivalent to the bendable sheet mentioned, which lead to the same result, with or without predetermined bending points, for example with a three-dimensionally flexible metal bellows.
  • shielding housing and housing cover thus form a protective metal cage for all exposed conductors and their connection element.
  • the attached housing cover preferably fulfills another function by holding down the flexibly designed sheet metal with the shield connection in such a way that when the shield connection is bent, a different area is bent than when the housing cover is open.
  • shield 10 of a socket insert for an HF connector system
  • which shield essentially consists of a shield housing 12 which is open on both sides in the viewing direction, a shield connection 14 for a cable 16 (FIG. 2) and a flexibly designed sheet metal 18 .
  • Shield housing 12, shield connection 14 and flexibly designed sheet metal 18 are formed in one piece by multiple folding, in the present case from an iron sheet with an approximately 0.3 mm thick, electrolytically applied tin coating, which on the one hand ensures good electrical conductivity and on the other hand also offers corrosion protection.
  • the shielding housing 12 has a plurality of latching tabs 20, which are used for latching with a housing cover 22 (FIG. 4).
  • a housing cover 22 FIG. 4
  • the housing cover which is locked several times with the shielding housing 12, forms a closed metallic cage which, despite the many folds, is dimensionally stable.
  • the shield connection 14 is essentially U-shaped, with two foldable crimp tabs 24, which are used to fasten a cable, not shown in FIG. 1.
  • the shield connection 14 with the folded crimp tabs 24 forms a rigid grip on the cable.
  • the flexible sheet 18 is bent along a first predetermined bending area 26.
  • a second predetermined bending area 28 remains unchanged for the time being.
  • the material, geometric shape and bending process are adapted so that there are no bending edges that increase the transfer resistance, but rather radii of curvature.
  • Part of the shielding housing 12 is also a connecting housing 30 in the contact area of the socket insert and plug. No assembly work has to be carried out in the housing when pulling in a cable, this area is pre-wired by the supplier. In contrast, it can be clearly seen from FIG. 1 that the interior of the shielding housing 12 is completely exposed on three sides when the shield connection 14 is bent back for assembly work.
  • FIG. 2 shows an equipped socket insert with a shield 10 corresponding essentially to FIG. 1.
  • the load-bearing plastic parts of the socket insert are omitted; they are of a type which is familiar to the person skilled in the art.
  • the shield connection 14 In position M, the shield connection 14 is bent back and the interior of the shielding housing 12 is thereby completely exposed.
  • a cable 16 inserted into the shield connection 14 and already fastened with a crimping tab 24 is indicated.
  • the flexible sheet metal 18 As in FIG. 1, the flexible sheet metal 18 is only bent along a first predetermined bending area 26, while a second predetermined bending area 28 remains unchanged.
  • the first predetermined bending area 26 of the flexibly designed sheet 18 is bent over such that it is integrated into the contour of the shielding housing 12.
  • the shield housing 12 is now ready for mounting the housing cover 22 (FIG. 4), which holds down the flexibly designed sheet 18.
  • the flexibly designed sheet metal 18 is bent approximately at a right angle, the cable 16 runs at an angle to the direction of insertion.
  • the second predetermined bending area 28 can also remain stretched, the shield connection 14 being in the position S shown.
  • the bending angle in the second predetermined bending area 28 can vary within wide limits, in particular from a cable 16 (position R) running approximately at right angles to the plugging direction to approximately 180 °, the cable connection to the rear (position S).
  • the shield connection 14 on the cable 16 can also be bent over the right angle from position R and / or the extended position S can be exceeded. In no position is the cable 16 itself significantly bent, the exposed wires 32 easily adapt to any change in angle in the predetermined bending areas 26, 28.
  • the cable 16 comprises four wires 32 embedded in a flexible mass 52 (FIG. 6). Outside the shield connection 14, the cable 16 is protected with an insulation jacket 34. In the area of the shield connection 14, the insulation jacket 34 is completely removed, and the metal braid 36, which is exposed over the entire circumference, is clamped in a contact-locking manner, at most after being flipped. When the metal braid 36 is folded over, an aluminum foil 38 lying underneath and encasing the investment material for the wires 32 is exposed. This film complements the metallic shield and also serves as a moisture barrier in the cable 16.
  • connection element 40 is mounted in the interior of the shielding housing 12. For each of the four wires, this has an insulation displacement connection 42, in which the insulation of the inserted wire 32 is cut and the metal contact is produced in the simplest manner when the metal contact is pressed on. Insulation displacement connections of this type are commercially available and are described in more detail, for example, in EP, A1 0088162.
  • connection element 40 is one in the housing 30 extending printed circuit board 44 is mounted, from which, for the sake of simplicity, electrical conductor wires (not shown) lead to contact elements, from where the electrical current is transmitted in a manner known per se to the sliding contacts of a plug.
  • two contact elements 46 can also be seen which, when the plug is attached, connect the shielding of the socket insert to that of the plug in an electrically conductive manner.
  • the metallic shield 10 shown in FIG. 3 with a shield housing 12 has an insertion opening 48, also called a mouth, for a plug.
  • the flexibly designed sheet 18 with the shield connection 14 is bent forward in the first predetermined bending area 26.
  • the cross-section is reduced with an elongated hole-shaped recess 25.
  • the sheet is straight.
  • the housing cover 22 shown in FIGS. 4 and 5 is placed over a shielding housing 12 and locked in such a way that the housing 30 passes through a slot-shaped opening 50 for shielding the contact area of the socket insert and plug (FIGS. 1, 2).
  • the housing cover 22 is locked with the shielding housing 12 in an electrically conductive manner by means of latching tabs 20.
  • the cable 16 of the covered connector part is shown in Fig. 6 cut above the housing 22.
  • the metal braid 36 arranged inside the insulating jacket 34 and the aluminum foil 38 (FIG. 2) cannot be seen.
  • the cable 16 comprises twelve wires 32, which are embedded in a flexible mass 52.
  • the position of the cable 16 is designated R according to FIGS. 2 and 4, the cable is bent by approximately 90 ° with respect to the plug-in direction in the second predetermined bending area 28 (FIG. 2).
  • the position S with a shield that is not bent in the second predetermined bending area 28 (FIG. 2) is indicated by dashed lines.
  • Fig. 7 shows the locking of shielding housing 12 and housing cover 22 in detail by means of two snap-in tabs 20.
  • the housing cover 22 and thus also the shielding housing 12 has six such latching tabs 20, which significantly increases the mechanical stability of the folded shielding housing.
