Description
Die Erfindung betrifft einen Steckverbinder gemäß dem Oberbegriff
des Patentanspruchs 1.The invention relates to a connector according to the preamble
of
Ein derartiger Steckverbinder ist beispielsweise aus der EP 0 251 755 A2 bekannt. Zusätzlich zu den beiden Steckerteilen besitzt dieser vorbekannte Steckverbinder noch ein Zwischenteil, das zur Fixierung der Leiterendabschnitte im ersten Steckerteil dient.Such a connector is, for example, from EP 0 251 755 A2 known. In addition to the two connector parts this known connector still an intermediate part, which for Fixing the conductor end sections in the first connector part is used.
Die im ersten Steckerteil vorgesehenen, in Reihen a...d gegeneinander versetzten Ausnehmungen sind zur Aufnahme der Schneiden der Schneidklemmen des zweiten Steckerteils vorgesehen in dem Sinne, daß sie den notwendigen Aufnahmeraum schaffen, in den die Schneidklemmen eintauchen können, wenn sie ihre Funktion, die Abisolierung ihres zugeordneten Leiterendabschnittes, beim Zusammenfügen der Steckerteile erfüllen. Eine weitergehende Funktionszuweisung für diese Ausnehmungen ist der genannten Druckschrift nicht entnehmbar.The provided in the first connector part, in rows a ... d against each other Staggered recesses are for receiving the cutting edges Insulation displacement connectors of the second connector part provided in the sense that they create the necessary receiving space in which the insulation displacement clamps can dip if they function, stripping their assigned conductor end section, when joining the Meet connector parts. A further function assignment for these recesses cannot be found in the cited document.
Weitere gattungsgemäße Steckverbinder weisen ebenfalls armähnliche Schneidklemmen auf, wobei auf die Funktion der Wandungen der Ausnehmungen zur Führung (US 4,701,139) oder Abstützung (DE-23 55 774 C2) der Schneidklemmen hingewiesen wird.Other generic connectors also have arm-like Insulation displacement clamps, with the function of the walls of the recesses for guidance (US 4,701,139) or support (DE-23 55 774 C2) of the insulation displacement terminals.
Nachteilig an diesen und der Vielzahl von weiteren bekannt gewordenen Lösungen zur Konstruktion von Steckverbindern der genannten Art ist, daß die Schneidklemmen infolge der relativ miniaturisierten Ausführung unter Umständen in ihrer Klemmkraft nachlassen können, insbesondere wenn durch Temperaturwechsel, mechanische Beanspruchung wie z.B. Vibrationen die geringen Materialquerschnitte im Bereich der beiden Gabeln der Schneidklemmen über längere Zeiten beansprucht werden, wie dies beispielsweise bei der Verwendung solcher Steckverbinder im KFZ-Bereich der Fall ist. Derartige Ermüdungserscheinungen insbesondere in Bereichen starker Temperaturschwankungen und mechanischer Beanspruchungen können dann im ungünstigsten Fall dazu führen, daß die Kontaktierung sich verschlechtert, mit der Folge einer Verringerung der Kontaktquerschnitte mit den daraus entstehenden Problemen oder gar mit der Folge der vollständigen Kontaktunterbrechung, was dann beispielsweise im KFZ-Bereich zu erheblichen Störungen der Funktion der elektrischen oder elektronischen Bauteile des Kraftfahrzeuges führen kann.Disadvantages of this and the multitude of others are known solutions for the construction of connectors of the named Kind is that the insulation displacement clamps due to the relative miniaturized version in some cases in its clamping force can decrease, especially if due to temperature changes, mechanical stress such as Vibrations the minor Material cross sections in the area of the two forks of the insulation displacement clamps be used for longer periods, such as at the use of such connectors in the automotive sector is the case. Such signs of fatigue, especially in areas more severe Temperature fluctuations and mechanical stresses can then in the worst case lead to the contact itself deteriorated, with the result of a reduction in the contact cross-sections with the resulting problems or even with the Follow the complete interruption of contact, for example what in the automotive sector to significant disruption of the function of the lead electrical or electronic components of the motor vehicle can.
Es ist daher Aufgabe der Erfindung, den gattungsgemäßen Steckverbinder so zu verbessern, daß derartige Veränderungen im Kontaktierverhalten der Schneidklemmen und die damit verbundenen Funktionsverschlechterungen bzw. Funktionsausfälle zuverlässig verhindert werden.It is therefore an object of the invention, the generic connector to improve so that such changes in contact behavior of the insulation displacement terminals and the associated deterioration in function or functional failures reliably be prevented.
Erfindungsgemäß wird diese Aufgabe gemäß dem kennzeichnenden Teil
des Patentanspruchs 1 gelöst.According to the invention, this object is according to the characterizing part
of
Der Grundgedanke der Erfindung besteht folglich darin, die Ausnehmungen innerhalb des in der Regel aus Kunststoff gefertigten Steckerteils so weiterzubilden, daß ein Metallgehäuse als Einsatz mit ausreichender Härte eingesetzt wird, der verhindert, daß sich die beiden Schenkel der gabelartigen Schneidklemmen durch die erwähnten thermischen oder mechanischen Beanspruchungen öffnen können, eine Maßnahme, die konstruktiv einfach umzusetzen ist und den Anwendungsbereich solcher gattungsgemäßer Steckverbinder auch in thermisch und mechanisch hoch belasteten Arbeitsumgebungen ermöglicht.The basic idea of the invention is therefore the recesses within the usually made of plastic To further develop the connector part so that a metal housing as an insert is used with sufficient hardness that prevents the two legs of the fork-like insulation displacement clamps through the open the thermal or mechanical loads mentioned can, a measure that is easy to implement constructively and the scope of such generic connectors also in working environments subject to high thermal and mechanical loads.
Eine erste vorteilhafte Ausgestaltung dieses Lösungsprinzips sieht vor, daß das Metallgehäuse ringförmig geschlossen oder topfförmig ausgebildet ist, was die erforderliche Stabilität gewährleistet, andererseits aber auch weiterhin ermöglicht, daß das Metallgehäuse, das jede Ausnehmung umgibt und damit jedem einzelnen Schneidklemmkontakt zugeordnet ist, beispielsweise nach Art einer Anschlußfahne abschnittweise auf der Außenseite des ersten Steckerteils herausgeführt ist, wodurch sich zusätzliche Kontaktierungs- und Schaltmöglichkeiten auf einfache Weise ergeben. A first advantageous embodiment of this solution principle sees before that the metal housing closed in a ring or pot-shaped is trained, which ensures the required stability, on the other hand, it still allows the metal housing, that surrounds each recess and thus every single insulation displacement contact is assigned, for example in the manner of a connecting lug led out in sections on the outside of the first connector part is, which creates additional contacting and switching options result in a simple way.
Entsprechend der Verlängerung des Metallgehäuses zur Außenseite des ersten Steckerteils hin ist auch eine entsprechende beispielsweise nasenartige Verlängerung des Einsatzes nach unten, d.h. zu den eingeführten Leitern möglich, wo diese Fortführungen dann als Zugentlastung dienen und die Zuverlässigkeit und Standzeiten solcher Steckverbinder weiterhin verbessert.Corresponding to the extension of the metal housing to the outside of the first connector part is also a corresponding example nose-like extension of the insert downwards, i.e. to the introduced Ladders possible where these continuations then serve as strain relief serve and the reliability and service life of such Connector further improved.

Die Figuren 1 bis 6 und Figur 10 sind Darstellungen eines ersten
Ausführungsbeispiels des erfindungsgemäßen Steckverbinders. Wie
üblich besteht ein derartiger Steckverbinder (Figur 1) aus einem
ersten Steckerteil 10, auf dem das Ende eines Flachbandkabels F
eingelegt ist, mit insgesamt N-Leitern 30.Figures 1 to 6 and Figure 10 are illustrations of a first
Embodiment of the connector according to the invention. How
Such a connector (Figure 1) usually consists of a
Das Gegenstück bildet ein zweites Steckerteil 20, das in der dargestellten
Position über geeignete Rastungen, Nasen oder ähnliche
Formschlußelemente mit dem ersten Steckerteil 10 verrastet ist, so
daß die beiden Steckerteile 10 und 20 das Flachbandkabel F sicher
zwischen sich einschließen.The counterpart forms a
Im ersten Steckerteil 10 sind Ausnehmungen 11 eingebracht, in die
jeweils eine Schneidklemme 40 (Figur 4) des zweiten Steckerteils 20
eintaucht, die in an sich bekannter Weise an ihrem Schneidende
gabelförmig ausgebildet ist, den Isoliermantel der Leiter 30 durchschneidet
und somit die Kontaktierung mit ihrem zugeordneten Leiter
herstellt. Diese Schneidklemmen 40 und ihre zugehörigen Ausnehmungen
11 sind in zwei Reihen gegeneinander versetzt angeordnet. Das rückwärtige
Ende der Schneidklemmen ist mit (nicht dargestellten)
Steckerpins oder Buchsen im zweiten Steckerteil 20 verbunden, das
dann dementsprechend mit einem komplementär passenden Bauteil
(Buchse oder Pin) verbindbar ist. Die beiden Steckerteile 10 und 20
bestehen in an sich bekannter Weise aus Kunststoff und brauchen in
ihrem Detailaufbau nicht näher erläutert zu werden.
Erfindungsgemäß ist nun vorgesehen, daß in die Ausnehmungen 11
hülsen- oder topfähnliche Metallgehäuse 50 eingesetzt sind, deren
Innenkontur so bemessen ist, daß die beiden Schenkel 41,42 jeder
Schneidklemme 40 seitlich geführt und gegen Verspreizen gesichert
sind. Ein bevorzugtes Ausführungsbeispiel eines solchen Metallgehäuses
50 ist den verschiedenen Ansichten und Schnitten der Figur 10
entnehmbar: According to the invention, it is now provided that in the
Es handelt sich hierbei um ein topfförmiges Gehäuse mit Seitenwänden
und einem Boden, dessen Innenquerschnitt eine maximale lichte Weite
L und eine maximale lichte Breite B aufweist, die mit den nach innen
zeigenden vier Eckbereichen 52 verjüngt sind, so daß sich der
dargestellte, kreuzähnliche Innenquerschnitt ergibt.It is a pot-shaped housing with side walls
and a floor, the inner cross section of which has a maximum clear width
L and has a maximum clear width B with the inside
showing four
Die maximale lichte Weite L entspricht dabei im wesentlichen dem
Außenmaß der beiden Schenkel 41 und 42, so daß durch die starre
Struktur des Metallgehäuses 50 ein Auseinanderspreizen der Schenkel
41,42 auch unter den angesprochenen mechanischen oder thermischen
Belastungen ausgeschlossen ist. Die (hier aus drei Adern
bestehenden) Leiter 30 mit ihrem Isoliermantel 31 bleiben daher auch
unter diesen Umständen sicher von den Schneidklemmen 40 in ihrer
Position gehalten und die Kontaktierung ist sichergestellt.The maximum clear width L corresponds essentially to that
External dimension of the two
Das erfindungsgemäße Konzept läßt sich vorteilhaft erweitern, wie beispielsweise anhand des in den Figuren 7 bis 9 dargestellten zweiten Ausführungsbeispiel des Steckverbinders gezeigt wird:The concept according to the invention can advantageously be expanded, such as for example using the one shown in FIGS. 7 to 9 second embodiment of the connector is shown:
Der in Figur 7 dargestellte Steckverbinder unterscheidet sich von
dem in Figur 1 dargestellten Steckverbinder lediglich dadurch, daß
zwei Reihen von Anschlußfahnen 51, entsprechend der Gesamtzahl N von
Leitern 30 aus dem ersten Steckerteil herausragen (beim dargestellten
Ausführungsbeispiel insgesamt 12+13=25 Anschlußfahnen 51 entsprechend 25
Leitungen 30).The connector shown in Figure 7 differs from
the connector shown in Figure 1 only in that
two rows of terminal lugs 51, corresponding to the total number N of
Diese Anschlußfahnen 51 sind Teil eines modifizierten Metallgehäuses
50', wie dies insbesondere in Figur 9 dargestellt ist. Es handelt
sich hierbei um ein ringförmig geschlossenes Metallgehäuse mit einem
Innenquerschnitt beispielsweise in der in Figur 10 dargestellten
Form, jedoch ohne Bodenabschnitt. Stattdessen ist ein Teil der
Seitenwandung durch das Kunststoffmaterial des ersten Steckerteils
10 hindurchgeführt und bildet in seinem nach außen zeigenden Teil
die N Anschlußfahnen 51, die somit auf dem gleichen Potential liegen
wie ihr zugeordneter Leiter 30. Diese Anschlußfahnen können somit
beispielsweise für Prüf- oder Kontrollzwecke benutzt werden, beispielsweise
durch Verbindung mit entsprechenden Einzel-Kontaktsteckern
an individuell ausgewählten Leitern 30.These terminal lugs 51 are part of a modified metal housing
50 ', as shown in particular in FIG. 9. It deals

Bei der in Figur 4 dargestellten weiteren Variante ist vorgesehen,
daß an der den Leitern zugewandten Unterseite des Metallgehäuses 50
ein Vorsprung oder eine Ausformung 55 vorgesehen ist, die in den
Isoliermantel des zugeordneten Leiters einschneidet.In the further variant shown in FIG. 4,
that on the underside of the
Zur Zugentlastung kann diese Ausformung insbesondere als Nase ausgebildet sein, die entgegen der Zugbeanspruchung der Leiter (30) abgewinkelt ist.For strain relief, this shape can be designed in particular as a nose against the tensile stress on the ladder (30) is angled.
