Definitions
- the present invention relates to an electrical connector pair according to the preamble of claim 1, i.e. an electrical connector pair consisting of a first electrical connector and a second electrical connector which can be connected to the same, the first electrical connector having a plurality of contacting elements which move with contacting elements of the second electrical connector with relative movement in a contacting direction are brought into contact, and which are arranged in at least one row extending in a row alignment direction.
- solder this is advantageously designed in such a way that the number of connections or soldering points to be provided in the assembled state of the electrical connector next to the same for practical reasons is such that its contacting elements and the assigned connection devices (usually solder sticks, which may be angled) are distributed on both sides of the circuit board and connected to the respective surfaces of these circuit board sides.
- the electrical connector described in this document has a central, groove-like recess on its rear side, which makes it possible to connect the electrical connector to an electrical circuit board via the edge section 4
- the reduction or the total elimination of forces acting in the transverse direction of the first electrical connector generally (but not exclusively) proves to be particularly effective if the latter is mounted horizontally on the corresponding electrical circuit board, ie the contact direction parallel to The surface of the printed circuit board runs, and if the connection area on the printed circuit board containing the connection points between the first electrical connector and the electrical printed circuit board extends along one side of the electrical connector, which is opposite to the side of the first connector, which is referred to below as the front side electrical connector at which contact is made with the second electrical connector;
- Such an arrangement of the first electrical connector on the electrical circuit board is customary, for example, in circuit board connectors which enable a first circuit board (for example assembly board) to be plugged onto a second circuit board (for example rear wall).
- mutually associated contact elements of the electrical connectors are designed in such a way that they can be brought into contact with a play on one or both sides in a transverse direction perpendicular to the contacting direction and in a transverse direction perpendicular to the row alignment direction, allowing mutual displacement of the electrical connectors which is many times larger than a game provided in the row alignment direction.
- the mutually associated contacting elements are designed such that they can be brought into contact and thus also in contact not only at a more or less punctiform point, but rather over a comparatively large area which is greatly expanded in the transverse direction .
- the enlarged design of the contacting elements only in the transverse direction which is particularly important for reasons of strength and stability, also allows the contacting elements to be arranged in the row alignment direction unchanged or possibly even in increased density.
- FIG. 1 shows a perspective view of a first electrical connector mounted on an electrical circuit board
- Figure 2 is a sectional view of the first electrical connector shown in Figure 1 and a second electrical connector mounted on a rear wall.
- the first electrical connector and the second electrical connector are printed circuit board connectors mounted on respective printed circuit boards.
- the circuit boards mentioned are an assembly board 10 and a rear wall 20; the first electrical connector is an assembly connector 30, and the second electrical connector is a backplane connector that can be mated to the assembly connector 30 especially when it is a matter of two-part electrical connectors, the elements of which are mounted independently of one another on opposite surfaces of the printed circuit board (first electrical connector) and / or spaced apart on one and the same surface in accordance with the desired arrangement of the (first) electrical connector to be contacted the corresponding printed circuit board can be mounted (second electrical connector).
- the tolerances causing the transverse force or the torsional and / or tensile forces include
- the pair of electrical connectors according to the invention thus makes it possible for this to provide a reliable and permanent, firm and secure connection between one or both of the electrical connectors to be brought into contact on any electrical circuit boards.
- the module connector 30 is mounted horizontally on the module plate 10. Ie, the connector face, via which the module connector 30 can be brought into contact with the rear wall connector 40, is in the assembled state on the module board 10 of the module connector 30 in a lateral, the front edge 11 of the module plate 10 facing the outer surface thereof, that is to say the end face 31 which is formed in the state of the assembly connector 10 plugged onto the rear wall 20 of the rear wall 20.
- the end face 31 is essentially perpendicular to the top 12a or the underside 12b of the assembly board 10.
- the end face 31, as indicated in FIG. 1, has a multiplicity of contact openings 32, behind which there are respective contacting elements in the form of contact springs (not shown in the figures).
- contacting elements in the form of contact blades 41 of the rear wall connector 40 come into contact with the contact springs through the contact openings 32.
- the contact openings 32 and the contact springs assigned to them are arranged in at least one row extending in a row alignment direction, the row alignment direction in the present exemplary embodiment running parallel to the surface of the assembly plate 10 and perpendicular to the contacting direction. If several rows are provided, in the present exemplary embodiment these are formed one above the other in the manner shown in the figures.
- the number of elements per row The module connector 30 and the rear wall connector 40 represent the electrical connector pair according to the invention.
- the assembly connector 30 is, as can be seen from the figures, arranged along a front edge 11 of the assembly board 10 such that when the assembly board 10 is plugged onto the surface of the back wall 20 with the back wall connector mounted thereon 40 can be brought into contact.
- the module connector 30 consists of two identically designed halves, one of the halves being butted on an upper side 12a of the module plate 10 and the other half in the same way on an opposite underside 12b of the module plate 10.
- the two halves are completely independent of one another in the unmounted state; in the assembled state they form a unit together with the assembly plate 10 enclosed between them.
- the rear wall connector 40 provided on the rear wall 20 also consists of two halves.
- the halves are arranged parallel to one another with a distance corresponding to the thickness of the assembly board 10 or in accordance with the intended arrangement of the assembly connector 30 on the surface of the rear wall 20 facing the assembly board 10 when inserted.
- the respective halves of the module connector 30 are composed in their longitudinal direction of relatively short connector modules 15 that are lined up.
- the size of the respective connector modules 15 is dimensioned such that they fit into conventional strip packaging and can be processed automatically using conventional assembly machines.
- the same also applies to the rear wall connector 40. It is preferably about two to four times the play in the row alignment direction.
- the contact springs of the assembly connector 30 and the respectively associated contact blades 41 of the rear wall connector 40 can therefore be brought into electrical and mechanical contact within a relatively large area, equally well (without resistance) at any point and be held.
- Such a design of the contacting elements results in a mutual offset of the contact springs and contact knives to be brought into contact (as a result of a non-centered connection, an inexact assembly of the plug connectors or plug connector modules on the respective printed circuit boards or manufacturing tolerances of the individual elements) when plugging together the same can be compensated without forces acting on the respective plug connector, which can result in the relatively sensitive connections between the plug connector and the printed circuit board being released.
- this reliably prevents the occurrence of forces acting in the transverse direction on the end face of the module plug connector, which act as torsional and / or tensile forces for the connection points between the module plug connector and the module plate, particularly against the connection points are sensitive.
- the module connector 30 can be provided on its side opposite the connection area of the module plate in the state mounted on the module plate 10 with a holding element which can be firmly connected to the module plate 10.
- a holding element can, for example, as shown in the figures, be formed by a holding plate 34 provided on the end face 31 and preferably extending essentially over the entire length of the module connector 30 or the respective connector modules 15 which is in the area of the front edge of the module plug is, however, generally greater than the number of rows.
- the assembly connector 30 is connected to the assembly board 10 by surface mounting or by an SMT method.
- it has angled soldering sticks 33 which emerge from the module connector 30 on a rear side opposite the end face 31 and are soldered to the module board 10 in a connection region adjacent thereto.
- connections made by surface mounting or by an SMT process are not very resilient and therefore require special attention when designing.
- the contact openings 32 and the contact springs lying behind them are designed such that — as indicated in the figures — these or their contacts are brought into contact and the contacting sections provided have a greater extent in a transverse direction perpendicular to the contacting direction and in a transverse direction perpendicular to the row alignment direction than in the row alignment direction.
- the respective dimensions, arrangements and configurations of the mutually associated contact springs of the first electrical connector and contact blade of the second electrical connector are selected according to the invention in such a way that they have a one direction in a transverse direction perpendicular to the contacting direction and a direction perpendicular to the row alignment direction mutual misalignment of the electrical connector permitting one or both-sided play can be brought into contact, which is many times larger than a play provided in the row alignment direction.
- the play in the transverse direction should be approximately twice the play in the row alignment direction or more, but can of course also be smaller, 12 claims
- a pair of electrical connectors (30, 40) consisting of a first electrical connector (30) and a second electrical connector (40) that can be connected to the same, the first electrical connector (30) having a plurality of contacting elements which are connected to contacting elements ( 41) of the second electrical connector (40) can be brought into contact in a contacting direction with relative movement, and which are arranged in at least one row extending in a row alignment direction, characterized in that mutually associated contacting elements of the electrical connectors (30 , 40) are designed in such a way that they can be brought into contact in a transverse direction running perpendicular to the contacting direction and in a direction perpendicular to the row orientation with a play on one or both sides that allows mutual displacement of the electrical connectors, which is many times is larger than a game provided in the row alignment direction.
- Electrical connector pair according to claim 1 or 2 characterized in that the first electrical connector (30) and / or the second electrical connector (40) as a high contact density auf ⁇ pointing, to be interconnected circuit boards (10, 20) mountable circuit board connector are trained.
- first electrical connector (30) and / or the second electrical connector (40) are designed such that with Binder is solderable with this (preferably using an SMT method).
- the invention has been described above using a printed circuit board connector arrangement. However, there is no restriction to this; Rather, the invention can be used with electrical connectors of any kind, because when brought into contact and / or in the contact state, the connector and / or the connection can be adversely affected by forces which can be avoided by the design of the connector pair according to the invention electrical connectors occur.
- the first electrical connector (module connector 30) is mounted horizontally on a printed circuit board (module plate 10).
- the invention can be used in a corresponding manner, even in the case of standing or in another way, electrical connectors mounted or mountable on a printed circuit board, because here, too, when contacting and / or bringing out of contact and / or in contact with a corresponding counterpart forces acting on the electrical connector can be generated, which in turn act on the connection points between the electrical connector and printed circuit board as torsion and / or tensile forces (avoidable by the inventive design).
