Description

Die Erfindung betrifft einen elektrischen Steckverbinder mit einem Isolierstoffgehäuse und mit Kontakten, die einstückig mit Verbindungsstücken zur Bildung von Anschlüssen zu Anschlußschrauben geführt sind, wobei die Anschlüsse in zwei Reihen im Isolierstoffgehäuse angeordnet sind. Ein derartiger Steckverbinder ist beispielsweise aus der DE 195 00 068 A1 bekannt. Bei diesem bekannten Steckverbinder sind die Anschlüsse der einen Reihe von den Anschlüssen der anderen Reihe derart versetzt angeordnet, daß die Anschlüsse eine Zick-Zack-Anordnung bilden, so daß sich eine Art Fischgrätmuster für die Anschlüsse ergibt. Zur Aufrechterhaltung der erforderlichen Luft- und Kriechstrecken sind zwischen den Anschlüssen schräg verlaufende Trennwände vorgesehen, die außenseitig offen enden und dadurch eine Zuführung äußerer Leiter ermöglichen. Die Aufnahmeräume sind dabei so dimensioniert, daß nur Einzelanschlüsse dieser äußeren Leiter möglich sind. Im besonderen Maße problematisch ist, daß die Außenenden dieser schrägen Trennwände dazu dienen müssen, die offenen Enden der Aufnahmeräume eines benachbart montierten Steckverbinders zu schließen, so daß diese Steckverbinder in ihrer Anwendung insgesamt sehr wenig flexibel sind und auch eine optimale Raumausnutzung unter Gewährleistung der erforderlichen Luft- und Kriechstrecken bezüglich der Anschlußmöglichkeiten, bezogen auf die vorhandene Steckverbinderfläche und angrenzende Gehäuseflächen oder angrenzende Bauteile, nicht gegeben ist.The invention relates to an electrical connector with an insulating housing and with contacts that are integral with connectors to form connectors are led to connection screws, the connections in two rows are arranged in the insulating housing. Such a connector is for example known from DE 195 00 068 A1. In this known connector the connections of one row are of the connections of the other row arranged offset that the connections form a zigzag arrangement, so that there is a kind of herringbone pattern for the connections. To maintain the The required air and creepage distances are oblique between the connections Partitions provided that end open on the outside and thereby one Allow supply of outer conductors. The recording rooms are dimensioned so that only individual connections of these outer conductors are possible. In particular Dimensions problem is that the outer ends of these inclined partitions must serve, the open ends of the receiving spaces of an adjacent mounted Close connector, so that these connectors in their application as a whole are very little flexible and also ensure optimal use of space the required clearances and creepage distances with regard to the connection options, based on the existing connector area and adjacent Housing surfaces or adjacent components, is not given.

Der vorliegenden Erfindung liegt von daher die Aufgabe zugrunde, einen elektrischen Steckverbinder der gattungsgemäßen Art zu schaffen, der eine optimale Raumausnutzung der Leiteranschlußfläche und eine äußerst flexible Einsatzmöglichkeit eines derartigen Steckverbinders gewährleistet.The present invention is therefore based on the object of an electrical To create connectors of the generic type that make optimal use of space the conductor connection area and an extremely flexible application of a guaranteed such connector.

Die erfindungsgemäße Lösung ergibt sich aus dem Schutzanspruch 1. Dadurch, daß die im wesentlichen parallel zur Schmalseite des Steckverbinders angeordneten Anschlüsse der beiden Reihen in geschlossenen Anschlußkammern angeordnet sind, die zweireihigen Anschlußkammern ihrerseits aber fluchtend zueinander in einem Winkel zur Längsachse des Steckverbinders angeordnet sind, ergibt sich eine sehr gute Raumausnutzung der vorhandenen Leiteranschlußfläche für die Unterbringung einer Vielzahl von Anschlüssen und dabei eine zuverlässige Gewährleistung der erforderlichen Luft- und Kriechstrecken. Dabei ist es möglich, die Anschlußkammern zur Aufnahme von Doppelanschlußsteckern zu dimensionieren, so daß es im Sinne einer äußerst flexiblen Nutzungsweise möglich ist, die Anschlüsse sowohl mit Einzelwie auch mit Doppelanschlußstücken der verschiedensten Anschlußarten zum Anschließen äußerer Leiter zu bestücken.The solution according to the invention results from the protection claim 1. Characterized in that the connections arranged essentially parallel to the narrow side of the connector of the two rows are arranged in closed connection chambers, the two-row connection chambers, in turn, are in alignment with one another An angle to the longitudinal axis of the connector is arranged, there is a very good use of space of the existing conductor connection area for the accommodation a variety of connections and thereby a reliable guarantee of the required Clearances and creepage distances. It is possible to use the connection chambers to accommodate double connector plugs so that it is in the sense An extremely flexible way of use is possible, the connections with both individual and also with double connectors of various connection types for connection to equip the outer conductor.

Weitere bevorzugte Ausgestaltungen, die insbesondere auch besonders vorteilhafte Ausgestaltungen der Anschlüsse selbst im Hinblick auf deren zuverlässige und einfache Montage betreffen, sind in den Unteransprüchen gekennzeichnet.Further preferred configurations, which are also particularly advantageous Configurations of the connections themselves in terms of their reliable and simple Assembly concern are characterized in the subclaims.

Der elektrische Steckverbinder besitzt ein Isolierstoffgehäuse 1. Er besitzt im dargestellten Ausführungsbeispiel eine Vielzahl von im Isolierstoffgehäuse 1 angeordneten Buchsenkontakten 2, die einstückig mit Verbindungstücken 3 zur Bildung von steckverbinderseitigen Anschlüssen zu von den Verbindungsstücken 3 abgewinkelten Anschlußösen 4 geführt sind, denen Anschlußschrauben 5 zugeordnet sind, für die unterhalb der Anschlußösen 4, in eine Aussparung 6 des Isolierstoffgehäuses 1 engelegt, Muttern 7 angeordnet sind. An den Anschlußösen 4 können mit Hilfe der Anschlußschrauben 5, wie nachfolgend im einzelnen erläutert, wahlweise diverse Leiteranschlußelemente festgelegt werden.The electrical connector has an insulating housing 1. It has in the illustrated Embodiment a plurality of arranged in the insulating housing 1 Socket contacts 2, which are in one piece with connecting pieces 3 to form connector-side Connections to connecting eyes angled from the connecting pieces 3 4 are guided, which terminal screws 5 are assigned, for the below the connecting eyes 4, placed in a recess 6 of the insulating housing 1, Nuts 7 are arranged. On the connection eyelets 4 can with the help of the connection screws 5, as explained in detail below, optionally various conductor connection elements be determined.

Abweichend vom dargestellten Ausführungsbeispiel können anstelle der Buchsenkontakte 2 auch Steckkontakte vorgesehen sein, die dann entsprechend über Verbindungsstücke elektrisch leitend mit den steckverbinderseitigen Anschlüssen verbunden sind.Deviating from the illustrated embodiment, instead of the socket contacts 2 plug contacts can also be provided, which are then correspondingly via connecting pieces electrically connected to the connectors on the connector side are.

Wie aus Figur 1 ersichtlich, liegen die steckverbinderseitigen Anschlüsse, im wesentlichen gebildet aus den Anschlußösen 4 und den Anschlußschrauben 5, im Isolierstoffgehäuse in zwei Reihen nebeneinander, wobei die Anschlüsse der beiden Reihen zueinander im wesentlichen parallel zur Schmalseite des Steckverbinders liegen. Die Anschlußösen 4 mit den Anschlußschrauben 5 liegen dabei ferner in im Isolierstoffgehäuse 1 gebildeten allseitig geschlossenen Anschlußkammern 8, wobei die beiden Reihen der Anschlußkammern 8 fluchtend zueinander in einem Winkel zur Längsachse des Steckverbinders angeordnet sind. Die Anschauung des in Figur 1 vereinfacht dargestellten Anschlußbildes zeigt, daß sich auf diese Weise innerhalb einer vorgegebenen Isolierstoffgehäusekontur eine Vielzahl von Anschlüssen unterbringen läßt, wobei die allseitig geschlossenen Anschlußkammern die Einhaltung der erforderlichen Luft- und Kriechstrecken gewährleisten und darüber hinaus die Anschlußkammern 8 noch so groß zu dimensionieren sind, daß auch noch die nachfolgend näher zu bschreibenden Doppelleiteranschlußelemente darin untergebracht werden können.As can be seen from FIG. 1, the connectors on the connector side lie essentially formed from the connection eyes 4 and the connection screws 5, in the insulating housing in two rows side by side, the connections of the two rows are essentially parallel to each other to the narrow side of the connector. The eyelets 4 with the terminal screws 5 are also in the insulating housing 1 formed connection chambers 8 closed on all sides, the two rows of connection chambers 8 are aligned with each other at an angle to Longitudinal axis of the connector are arranged. The view of the in FIG Simplified connection diagram shows that in this way within accommodate a variety of connections in a given insulating housing contour lets, the all-round connection chambers compliance with ensure the required air and creepage distances and also the connection chambers 8 are to be dimensioned so large that the following Double conductor connection elements to be described in this case can be.

Die Anschauung zeigt ferner, daß nach dem gleichen Bauprinzip auch drei oder noch mehr Reihen von Anschlüssen 4, 5 mit entsprechenden Buchsenkontakten 2 bei einem elektrischen Steckverbinder unter Gewährleistung der gleichen Vorteile verwirklicht werden können.The view further shows that three or even more rows of connections 4, 5 with corresponding socket contacts 2 with an electrical connector while ensuring the same benefits can be realized.

An die Anschlußösen 4, die über die Verbindungsstücke 3 einstückig mit den Buchsenkontakten 2 verbunden sind, sind in weiterer zweckmäßiger Ausgestaltung nach oben abgewinkelte Laschen 9 angeformt, die in kleine Ausnehmungen 10 in den entsprechenden Wandbereichen der Anschlußkammern 8 eintreten können. An die Anschlußösen 4 sind ferner nach unten gerichtet Rastlaschen 11 angeformt, die sich mit entsprechenden angrenzenden Wandabschnitten 12 der Anschlußkammern 8 verrasten bzw. verhaken können. Auf der gegenüberliegenden Seite, im Verbindungsstück 3 sind ebenfalls Rasten 11' angeformt, die diesen Bereich des Kontaktes sicher fixieren. Die elektrisch leitende Baugesamtheit aus Buchsenkontakt 2 mit Verbindungsstück 3 sowie Anschlußöse 4 ist damit mehrfach kraft- und formschlüssig im Isolierstoffgehäuse fixiert und verrastet und damit nach der Montage auch gegen Verlust gesichert, und zwar ohne daß dazu etwa die Anschlußschrauben 5 benutzt werden müssen. Dank dieser Ausgestaltung sind ferner die Anschlußschrauben 5 und die Muttern 7 mit der dazwischenliegenden Anschlußöse 4 ein plan aufeinanderliegender Verbund, wobei sich insbesondere zwischen diesen Teilen keine Wandabschnitte des Isolierstoffgehäuses befinden. Die Gefahr einer Relaxation des Kunststoffes mit der Möglichkeit der Lockerung des Schraubanschlusses ist damit vermieden.At the connection eyelets 4, which are integral with the socket contacts via the connecting pieces 3 2 are connected in a further expedient embodiment according to Above angled tabs 9 formed into small recesses 10 in the corresponding Wall areas of the connection chambers 8 can enter. At the connection eyelets 4 are also formed downward latching tabs 11 formed with latch the corresponding adjacent wall sections 12 of the connection chambers 8 or get caught. On the opposite side, in the connector 3 also notches 11 'are formed, which secure this area of contact fix. The electrically conductive building set consisting of socket contact 2 with connector 3 and connecting eye 4 is thus multiple non-positive and positive in Insulated housing locked and locked and thus also against after assembly Loss secured, without using the connection screws 5 Need to become. Thanks to this configuration, the connection screws 5 are also and the nuts 7 with the intermediate eyelet 4 a flat one on top of the other Compound, with none in particular between these parts Wall sections of the insulating material housing. The risk of relaxation of the Plastic with the possibility of loosening the screw connection is thus avoided.

Die Anschauung der Anordnung zeigt auch, daß die vorstehend genannten Metallteile in vorteilhafter Weise gemeinsam aus einer Richtung montiert, d. h. in das Isolierstoffgehäuse 1 eingebracht werden können.The view of the arrangement also shows that the above metal parts advantageously assembled together from one direction, d. H. in the insulating housing 1 can be introduced.

Die Figuren 4 und 5 zeigen nun diverse mögliche Ausgestaltungen von Leiteranschlußelementen, und zwar einmal diese diversen Leiteranschlußelemente als solche im einzelnen, zum anderen nach ihrer Festlegung an den Anschlußösen 4 und damit den Buchsenkontakten 2 mit Hilfe der Anschlußschrauben 6. Figur 4 zeigt einen Ringkabeleinzelanschluß 13 sowie einen Ringkabeldoppelanschluß 14. Ringkabelanschlüsse werden in diesem Anwendungsbereich vielfach bevorzugt und können besonders bequem und zuverlässig hier mit den Anschlußschrauben 5 auf den planeben liegenden Anschlußösen 4 festgelegt werden. Figur 4 illustriert auch, daß im Bedarfsfall auch die anzuschließenden Leiter 15 als solche nach Abisolierung ihrer Enden direkt mit Hilfe der Anschlußschrauben 5 festgelegt werden können, und zwar auch in Art eines Doppelanschlusses.FIGS. 4 and 5 now show various possible configurations of conductor connection elements, namely these various conductor connection elements as such in detail, on the other hand after their fixing to the connecting eyes 4 and thus the socket contacts 2 using the connecting screws 6. Figure 4 shows one Ring cable single connection 13 and a ring cable double connection 14. Ring cable connections are often preferred in this area of application and can be special conveniently and reliably here with the connecting screws 5 on the plane lying connection eyelets 4 are set. Figure 4 also illustrates that when needed also the conductors 15 to be connected as such after stripping their ends can be set directly using the connecting screws 5, namely also in the manner of a double connection.

Die Figur 5 zeigt, daß auch als Leiteranschlußelemente Flachsteckeinzelanschlüsse 16 und Flachsteckdoppelanschlüsse 17 eingesetzt werden können, aber auch Einzel-Drahtwickelanschlüsse 18 oder Doppel-Drahtwickelanschlüsse 19. Aus Vorstehendem ergibt sich, daß hier alle Vorteile eines Steckverbinders mit einer äußersten Flexibilität der Anschlußtechniken zum Anschließen äußerer Leiter kombiniert ist. FIG. 5 shows that flat plug individual connections are also used as conductor connection elements 16 and flat plug double connections 17 can be used, but also single wire winding connections 18 or double wire wrap connections 19. From the above it follows that all the advantages of a connector with an outermost Flexibility of connection techniques for connecting outer conductors is combined.

Abweichend von den vorstehend beschriebenen Ausführungsbeispielen könnten auch ein Flachsteckeinzelanschluß und ein Flachsteckdoppelanschluß einstückig mit dem Kontakt verbunden sein.Deviating from the exemplary embodiments described above also a flat plug single connection and a flat plug double connection in one piece be connected to the contact.
