Definitions

  • the invention relates to a guide pin for electrical Plug connections, consisting of a turned part with an in a connection hole of a base fixable fastening section at one end and a leading guide section on the other end.
  • Such guide pins are used in the Siemens data book Connectors / Connectors, edition 2/95, described connector system "SIPAC" used and there for the plug connection a female connector attached to an assembly and a knife bar provided on a rear wall on both sides the narrow sides of the male connector arranged and each attached in a connection hole of the rear wall.
  • This leading guide pins are used for pre-centering the assembly and in cooperation with special coding parts the coding of the connector and are at the same time for mass advance or as super-leading high-current contacts applicable.
  • the guide pin In the known connector the guide pin consists of a turned part with a Flange and an internal thread at the fastening end, the Guide pin using one from the back of the back panel screwed into the internal thread with his Flange pulled against the back wall and attached to it (see also pages 49 and 57).
  • This type of mounting and mounting is relatively time consuming and therefore expensive.
  • the invention has for its object the assembly, attachment and contacting one consisting of a turned part Simplify the guide pin on a base.
  • This task is the one mentioned in a guide pin Art solved according to the invention in that the fastening section the guide pin has two zones, that the one zone (fastening zone) as a massive press-in zone for press-fitting the guide pin in the connection hole trained and that the other zone (leadership zone) than towards the press-in zone towards the end of the guide pin subsequent, opposite the press-in zone in the clear outer width slightly reduced pre-positioning zone for insertion of the guide pin formed in the connection hole is.
  • Such a guide pin consisting of a turned part is in its fastening section with two zones, namely with a pre-positioning zone as a guiding zone during insertion in a connection hole of the base and with a massive press-in zone as a fastening zone for press-fitting the guide pin formed in the connection hole.
  • the guide pin can be compared with the in the clear outer width Press-in zone slightly reduced pre-positioning or guiding zone manually or automatically into the connection hole are used, the guide zone is expedient sits in the connection hole with little play.
  • the pin is positioned sufficiently precisely in the connection hole so that after inserting it into the connection hole his fastening zone designed as a press-in zone with a automatic press-in machine further into the connection hole can be pressed in, if necessary simultaneously with other components the connector.
  • the guide pin has at least the press-in zone in cross section essentially the shape of an equilateral triangle that is rounded instead of corners.
  • the outside width of such a guide pin consisting of a rotating part can be manufactured with great accuracy and expediently has a slight excess compared to clear inside width of the connection hole.
  • the advantage of one Press-in zone with an essentially triangular cross-sectional shape lies in the fact that with such a press-in zone larger tolerances the clear inside width of the connection hole can be caught are.
  • FIG. 1 there is one on the component side as a base 1 serving assembly a female connector 2 indicated, which together with a male connector 4, which on the front of a rear wall serving as a base 3 is arranged, forms an electrical connector.
  • a guide pin 5 On both sides the narrow sides of the male connector 4 is a guide pin 5 arranged in a connection hole 6 of Back wall is attached.
  • the guide pins 5 of the connector work with one on each side of the narrow sides the female connector 2 on the module 1 arranged coding box 7 together, of which only one is also shown in FIG. 1 is.
  • each one can be inserted into the coding box 7 or onto the guide pin 5 push-on coding key element 8 or 9 provided, these elements - like the guide pin - also not integrated in the female or male connector 2 or 4 are.
  • the leading guide pin 5 is used for pre-centering in making the connector and contacted a spring 10 of the coding box 7 leading before spring and contact the male connector.
  • This super lead can also used as a ground contact or as a high-current contact become.
  • the guide pin 5 ( Figure 2) consists of a turned part a fixing section fixable in the connection hole 6 of the rear wall 3 11 at one end and a leading guide section 12 at the other end.
  • the guide section 12 of the round guide pin 5 is on his free end 13 rounded off with a crest and at its the Rear wall 3 facing rear end 14 in a zone slightly knurled larger diameter and then formed with a flange 15 with which the guide pin bears against the rear wall 3 when fastened.
  • a fastening zone 16 which is a massive press-in zone for press-fitting the guide pin in the connection hole 6 of the rear wall 3 is formed, and a guide zone 17, which is at the press-in zone 16 at the end of the guide pin connects.
  • the guide zone 17 serves as a pre-positioning zone for inserting the guide pin 5 into the connection hole 6 and is to facilitate this introduction to the clear outer width slightly compared to the press-in zone 16 reduced and provided at the end with an insertion bevel 18.
  • the fastening section 11 has - since the guide pin consists of a turned part - over its entire length originally a circular cross-sectional shape, with the illustrated embodiment of the outer diameter of the Press-in zone 16 a slight excess compared to the inner diameter of the connection hole 6, while the prepositioning zone 17 a slightly reduced compared to the press-in zone 16 Outside diameter, which is dimensioned so that the pre-positioning zone with very little play in the connection hole 6 fits.
  • the fastening portion 11 has its entire length in cross section essentially the shape an equilateral triangle that rounds off instead of the corners 19 ( Figure 3). This triangular shape of - as in Fig.
  • the roundings 19 of the press-in zone 16 in the longitudinal direction of the guide pin with knurling.
  • the prepositioning zone 17 is circular in cross section leave the press-in zone with a slightly larger outside diameter train and only the press-in zone with one triangular cross-sectional shape.
