Definitions
- the invention relates to a connector for high currents, consisting of a pin-shaped contact pin and a sleeve-shaped, provided with spring tongues contact socket. With such plug connections, it is necessary that the volume resistance between the contact pin and the contact socket is as low as possible in order to keep the heating of the contact point as small as possible when the current flows.
- the invention has for its object to design a plug connection of the type mentioned in such a way that the lowest possible volume resistance is achieved when the plug connection is joined.
- the substantially massive plug end of the contact pin has a bore at the front end, and that slots are provided in the region of the bore for the formation of spring tongues, and in that the sleeve-shaped contact socket has slots for the formation of spring tongues only at the front end , and that the rear area of the contact socket has an unslotted constriction.
- the advantages achieved by the invention are, in particular, that the volume resistance is reduced by increasing the number of contact points when the plug connection is assembled, and the heating of the plug connection that may occur nevertheless can be dissipated well by the semi-open construction (slots).
- the contact pin 1 shown in FIG. 1 is preferably made as a turned part from solid material and has a conductor connection end 2 and a plug end 3. Between these two outer ends, the contact pin is provided with gradations 4 for holding in a carrier body or housing, not shown here. From the front, a central bore 5 is formed in the plug end 3, which extends approximately to the middle of the plug end, so that the plug end has a solid section 6 and sleeve-shaped section 7. The sleeve-shaped section is provided with slots 8 through which spring tongues 9 are formed. A conical insertion bevel 10 is provided at the front end to facilitate insertion of the contact pin into a contact socket.
- the contact socket 11 shown in FIG. 2 is also preferably made as a turned part made of solid material and has a conductor connection end 12 and a sleeve-shaped plug end 13. Between the two outer ends, the contact socket is provided with steps 14 for holding in a carrier body or housing, not shown here.
- the sleeve-shaped plug end is made through a central bore 15. This bore has a smaller diameter in its end region on than at the beginning, so that the rear region of the plug end shows a constriction 16.
- the transition between the front and rear areas is provided with a conical bevel 17.
- the outer sleeve of the plug end is provided with slots 19 which extend into the region of the bevel 17.
- the sleeve-shaped plug end 13 of the contact socket has a front elastic region with spring tongues and a rear, inherently rigid, inelastic region.
- FIG. 3 The interaction of the different areas of the contact pin 1 and the contact socket 11 is shown in FIG. 3, in which an assembled plug connection is shown.
- the front end, provided with spring tongues 9, of the contact pin 1, that is to say its sleeve-shaped section 7, is inserted into the constriction 16 of the contact socket 11.
- Appropriate dimensions of the diameter of the front end of the contact pin and the constriction ensure that the spring tongues 9 press resiliently against the wall of the constriction, with a corresponding number of contact points being formed in accordance with the number of spring tongues.
- the front ends of the contact tongues 18 of the contact socket are located in the area of the solid section 6 of the contact pin and act resiliently on them, with a corresponding number of contact points being formed in accordance with the number of contact tongues 18.
- the contact tongues 18 are slightly bent inwards (inserted) before the insertion of a contact pin and that an insertion bevel 20 is provided for better insertion of a contact pin.

Abstract
Description
Die Erfindung betrifft eine Steckverbindung für hohe Ströme, bestehend aus einem stiftförmigen Kontaktstift und einer hülsenförmigen, mit Federzungen versehenen Kontaktbuchse.
Bei derartigen Steckverbindungen ist es erforderlich, daß der Durchgangswiderstand zwischen dem Kontaktstift und der Kontaktbuchse möglichst gering ist, um die Erwärmung der Kontaktstelle beim Stromfluß möglichst klein zu halten.The invention relates to a connector for high currents, consisting of a pin-shaped contact pin and a sleeve-shaped, provided with spring tongues contact socket.
With such plug connections, it is necessary that the volume resistance between the contact pin and the contact socket is as low as possible in order to keep the heating of the contact point as small as possible when the current flows.
Es ist allgemein bekannt, den Kontaktstift einer solchen Steckverbindung als massiven Stift auszubilden und die Kontaktbuchse zur Ausbildung von Federzungen mit Schlitzen zu versehen, um eine große Zahl von Kontaktpunkten zu erzielen und den Durchgangswiderstand dadurch gering zu halten.It is generally known to design the contact pin of such a plug connection as a solid pin and to provide the contact socket with slots to form spring tongues in order to achieve a large number of contact points and thereby to keep the volume resistance low.
Der Erfindung liegt die Aufgabe zugrunde, eine Steckverbindung der eingangs genannten Art dahingehend auszubilden, daß ein möglichst geringer Durchgangswiderstand bei zusammengefügter Steckverbindung erzielt wird.The invention has for its object to design a plug connection of the type mentioned in such a way that the lowest possible volume resistance is achieved when the plug connection is joined.
Diese Aufgabe wird dadurch gelöst, daß das im wesentlichen massive Steckende des Kontaktstiftes am vorderen Ende eine Bohrung aufweist, und daß im Bereich der Bohrung Schlitze zur Ausbildung von Federzungen vorgesehen sind, und daß die hülsenförmige Kontaktbuchse lediglich am vorderen Ende Schlitze zur Ausbildung von Federzungen aufweist, und daß der hintere Bereich der Kontaktbuchse eine ungeschlitzte Verengung aufweist.This object is achieved in that the substantially massive plug end of the contact pin has a bore at the front end, and that slots are provided in the region of the bore for the formation of spring tongues, and in that the sleeve-shaped contact socket has slots for the formation of spring tongues only at the front end , and that the rear area of the contact socket has an unslotted constriction.
Vorteilhafte Ausgestaltungen der Erfindung sind in den Ansprüchen 2 und 3 angegeben.Advantageous embodiments of the invention are specified in
Die mit der Erfindung erzielten Vorteile bestehen insbesondere darin, daß durch die Erhöhung der Anzahl der Kontaktpunkte bei zusammengefügter Steckverbindung der Durchgangswiderstand reduziert wird, wobei die ggfs. dennoch auftretende Erwärmung der Steckverbindung durch die halboffene Bauweise (Schlitze) gut abgeführt werden kann.The advantages achieved by the invention are, in particular, that the volume resistance is reduced by increasing the number of contact points when the plug connection is assembled, and the heating of the plug connection that may occur nevertheless can be dissipated well by the semi-open construction (slots).

Der in der Fig. 1 dargestellte Kontaktstift 1 ist vorzugsweise als Drehteil aus Massivmaterial hergestellt und weist ein Leiteranschlußende 2 und ein Steckende 3 auf.
Zwischen diesen beiden äußeren Enden ist der Kontaktstift mit Abstufungen 4 zur Halterung in einem hier nicht näher dargestellten Trägerkörper bzw. Gehäuse versehen. In das Steckende 3 ist von vorn her eine zentrische Bohrung 5 eingeformt, die etwa bis zur Mitte des Steckendes reicht, so daß das Steckende ein massives Teilstück 6 und hülsenförmiges Teilstück 7 aufweist. Das hülsenförmige Teilstück ist mit Schlitzen 8 versehen, durch die Federzungen 9 ausgebildet sind. Am vorderen Ende ist zur Erleichterung des Einführens des Kontaktstifts in eine Kontaktbuchse eine konische Einführschräge 10 vorgesehen.The

Die in der Fig. 2 dargestellte Kontaktbuchse 11 ist ebenfalls vorzugsweise als Drehteil aus Massivmaterial hergestellt und weist ein Leiteranschlußende 12 und ein hülsenförmiges Steckende 13 auf. Zwischen den beiden äußeren Enden ist die Kontaktbuchse mit Abstufungen 14 zur Halterung in einem hier nicht näher dargestellten Trägerkörper bzw. Gehäuse versehen. Das hülsenförmige Steckende ist durch eine zentrische Bohrung 15 hergestellt. Diese Bohrung weist in ihrem Endbereich einen geringeren Durchmesser auf als am Anfang, so daß der hintere Bereich des Steckendes eine Verengung 16 zeigt. Der Übergang zwischen dem vorderen und hinteren Bereich ist mit einer konischen Schräge 17 versehen. Zur Ausbildung von federnden Kontaktzungen 18 ist die äußere Hülse des Steckendes mit Schlitzen 19 versehen, die sich bis in den Bereich der Schräge 17 erstrecken. Dadurch weist das hülsenförmige Steckende 13 der Kontaktbuchse einen vorderen elastischen Bereich mit Federzungen und einen hinteren, in sich steifen, unelastischen Bereich auf.The
Das Zusammenwirken der verschiedenen Bereiche des Kontaktstifts 1 und der Kontaktbuchse 11 ist in der Fig. 3 dargestellt, in der eine zusammengefügte Steckverbindung gezeigt ist.
Hierbei ist das vordere, mit Federzungen 9 versehene Ende des Kontaktstifts 1, d. h. dessen hülsenförmiges Teilstück 7, bis in die Verengung 16 der Kontaktbuchse 11 eingeschoben. Durch entsprechende Abmessungen des Durchmessers des vorderen Endes des Kontaktstifts und der Verengung wird erreicht, daß die Federzungen 9 federnd gegen die Wand der Verengung drücken, wobei entsprechend der Anzahl der Federzungen auch entsprechend viele Kontaktpunkte ausgebildet sind.
Bei zusammengefügter Steckverbindung befinden sich die vorderen Enden der Kontaktzungen 18 der Kontaktbuchse im Bereich des massiven Teilstücks 6 des Kontaktstifts und wirken federnd darauf ein, wobei entsprechend der Anzahl der Kontaktzungen 18 auch entsprechend viele Kontaktpunkte ausgebildet sind. Zur Erhöhung der Federkraft kann vorgesehen sein, daß die Kontaktzungen 18 vor dem Einfügen eines Kontaktstifts leicht nach innen gebogen (angestellt) sind und daß eine Einführschräge 20 zum besseren Einstecken eines Kontaktstifts vorgesehen ist.The interaction of the different areas of the
