Definitions

  • the invention relates to a socket contact with a base spring which is a connector for an electrical conductor and a contact member with and from a spring leg base outgoing spring legs for contacting a Has plug contact, and with one from a stamped and bent part made of sheet metal, the contact part of the base spring over-spring enclosing a box-like shape, which forms a base wall, two side walls and one due to a manufacturing Longitudinal slot divided ceiling wall and two opposite walls with cut out, bent inwards and on the spring legs of the Basic spring overlap tongues as well as one from a Wall cut out, in the longitudinal direction of the spring extending, outwardly bent locking hook and further is still formed with a polarizing element.
  • Such a socket contact is e.g. B. by DE 9202366 U1 known.
  • Contact springs are used for electrical plug connections, which are designed as a socket contact and from a Basic spring and one among others for contact force support serving for the basic spring, the basic spring box-shaped enclosing spring.
  • the spring has over it usually additional functions and should z.
  • B. - As with the known socket contact - a primary fuse and a polarization into a contact chamber of a contact carrier insertable socket contact. For this the over spring on one side with a cut out outwardly bent detent spring arm for primary securing as well as on the same or a different side with a also outwardly curved lobe-shaped web for polarization educated.
  • the spring is more suitable Way to attach to the base spring.
  • Socket contacts is both the basic spring and the one Spring made from a stamped and bent part made of sheet metal. Due to a longitudinal slit that arises due to the manufacturing process on one side - especially with springs with additional functions - the stability of the box shape the spring can be impaired.
  • the invention is therefore primarily based on the object a socket contact of the type mentioned one as possible to achieve stable box shape of the spring.
  • This task is the one mentioned in the case of a socket contact kind solved according to the invention in that at the divided ceiling wall of the spring a ceiling wall part or both ceiling wall parts in one of the connecting part of the Base spring facing lower portion of the longitudinal slot and in one of the contact opening side of the base spring upper part of the longitudinal slot with a the other ceiling wall part directed connecting tab is or are formed and that the connecting tab extend beyond the longitudinal slot and with the respective opposite ceiling wall part and / or are non-positively connected.
  • the socket contact 1 consists of a Basic spring 2 and a spring 3 and is in a contact chamber 4 of a contact carrier 5 ( Figure 4), for. B. in a Single or multi-row contact chambers with socket housings an electrical connector.
  • the Basic spring 2 is with a z. B. trained as a crimp connection Connection part 6 for an electrical conductor and with a contact part 7 is formed, which in cross section e.g. B.
  • U-shaped or rectangular spring leg base 8 has, of which the spring legs 9 and 10 for contacting a plug contact, e.g. B. a contact knife, going out.
  • the spring legs 9 and 10 of the base spring go z. B.
  • the spring 3 is also rectangular in cross section trained so that they the entire contact part 7 of the base spring 2 with a bottom wall 13, two side walls 14, 15 and a ceiling wall 16 encloses a box.
  • the bottom wall 13 of the spring 3 is in itself Longitudinal direction of the over-spring extending locking hook 17 cut out and as a primary fuse element for an in to introduce a contact chamber 4 of the contact carrier 5 Socket contact bent outwards.
  • the spring 3 is in simply attached to the base spring 2 in that on their short side walls 14, 15 with small, through Partition cuts formed and bent inwards as well as in Recesses 11, 12 on the side walls of the spring leg base 8 engaging flaps 18, 19 is provided.
  • the base spring 2 and the spring 3 are made of stamped and bent parts made of sheet metal and therefore have to be manufactured a longitudinal slot.
  • the longitudinal slots 21 and 22 the base spring 2 and the spring 3 are located here in the top wall of the two springs, d. H.
  • the spring feather 3 has a top wall divided by the longitudinal slot 22 16, which is divided here in the middle and thus two has the same size ceiling wall parts 16a and 16b.
  • the two top wall parts 16a, 16b in connected in the exemplary manner described below.
  • the top wall part 16 a is in a the connecting part 6 the lower part of the longitudinal slot facing the base spring 2 22 with an approximately rectangular connecting tab 23 formed by a crank 24 of the Ceiling wall part 16a is bent upwards, in the direction on the opposite other ceiling wall part 16b extends beyond the longitudinal slot 22 and the other Ceiling wall part 16b overlapped flat in a partial area.
  • the connection of the connecting tab 23 with the ceiling wall part 16b is carried out by plastic forming (clinching), d. H. through plastic cold forming and pressing into each other the connection area with an embossing stamp or - as shown - by welding z.
  • B. two Spot welds 25 instead of these non-positive, described Connection type can e.g. B.
  • the ceiling wall parts 16a and 16b also in one of the contact opening side the upper part of the longitudinal slot facing the base spring 2 22 connected together.
  • the other ceiling wall part 16b formed with a connecting tab 26.
  • This connection tab 26 forms an end web 26a which with an angle of 90 ° to the ceiling wall part 16b to the outside is bent up and with a section 26b over the Longitudinal slot 22 extends beyond. From this section 26b is in turn angled by 90 ° a partial lobe 26c and opposite ceiling wall part 16a bent out.
  • this partial rag 26c is in turn welded to one Welding point 25 connected to the ceiling wall part 16a.
  • this partial rag 26c is in turn welded to one Welding point 25 connected to the ceiling wall part 16a.
  • this partial rag 26c is in turn welded to one Welding point 25 connected to the ceiling wall part 16a.
  • the contact chamber 4 of the Contact carrier 5 for the web 26a of the socket contact with a corresponding polarization groove 22 is formed.
  • the width of the in the connecting tab 23 provided in the lower section transverse to the direction of insertion no greater than the width b of the web 26a in the same direction.
  • the height of the connecting tab 23 above the ceiling wall 16 much lower than the height h of the web 26a. So that's the dimensioning of the connecting tab 23 within the contour of the Polarization groove 20.
  • each spring leg 9, 10 of the base spring 2 with an inward curved spring tongue is formed.
  • each spring leg 9 and 10 with four formed by longitudinal slits are the spring over here both on the bottom wall 13 and on the ceiling wall 16 with each provided four resilient spring tongues 27 bent inwards, the approximately at the level of the contact zone 28 on the contact lamellae rest ( Figure 5).
