Definitions
- the invention relates to a connector for connecting at least two plugs with contacts on one side common socket with corresponding mating contacts.
- the plugs can be connected to the corresponding socket be fixed in different ways.
- a connector in which the connector is lateral Has locking arms in the corresponding socket-side Snap openings are locked.
- the invention is based on the object, a Possibility to show several plugs on the smallest possible To position space next to each other, but it should also be possible to connect individual plugs to the associated Socket.
- the invention is based on the idea of adapting the connector known from DE 44 44 423 A1 in such a way that when two connectors are to be assembled directly next to one another, the inner locking arms "are made inoperative, that is, only the outer locking arms bring about the common locking of adjacent plugs and at the same time the adjacent plugs are positioned at their corresponding surface sections.
- locking elements become two of the four locking elements made inoperative and only the outer locking elements Attachment needed.
- the two are viewed side by side arranged plug virtually combined into a plug that with two outer locking elements is anchored on the socket side.
- each connector has along at least one outer surface an outer locking element.
- This outer locking element regardless of whether the connector alone or together with a second or third connector is used to lock the plug on a corresponding socket required.
- the outer locking elements have only this task.
- the plug on their opposite surface also mentioned corresponding locking element.
- Such a connector corresponds as far as possible according to DE 44 44 423 A1.
- the third sub-characteristic provides this inner one Form locking element with a thickened section that the remaining inner surface laterally (towards the neighboring Connector) protrudes.
- the corresponding inner surface of the further connector also form with a thickened section, so that when the guide element of one is pushed on axially
- the connector in the guide slot of the other connector thickened sections run against each other and thus the corresponding locking element perpendicular to the direction of insertion push away so that when you plug it in again still in the corresponding locking opening (usually in the Socket) can be inserted, but no longer there locked.
- a plug (the other plugs) only formed with a locking element, while the said thickening on the opposite Housing section (the inner surface) is arranged.
- the thickened section area of the further connector also formed by an inner, resilient locking element becomes.
- the plug is at least on their (inner) surface sections, which at a common Manufacturing lie next to each other, be flattened should, because this makes a particularly cheap, flat Installation of the adjacent connector is made possible.
- the plugs typically have one, for example rectangular cross-sectional shape.
- the connector described above allows two or several plugs in a common socket to assemble corresponding counter contacts, albeit separate sockets are also possible.
- the socket can have, for example, a web shape and have different sections with a different number of mating contacts, the number of which corresponds to the number of contacts of the associated plugs.
- a typical application of the aforementioned connector is a mobile phone. For example, using a Plug the power supply.
- the other connector can used as a signal connector, for example for a fax connection become.
- the locking elements can be of any design exhibit.
- the Locking elements - similar to DE 44 44 423 A1 - as Form locking arms in the direction of insertion of the connector run and have locking means at their free end that for example, are directed outwards.
- the free ends of the locking means the contacts of the connector to the front protrude (in the direction of insertion).
- the locking arms are each designed to be resilient To be able to fulfill the locking function.
- the area of Guide receptacle / the guide element another latching respectively.
- One embodiment provides for this in the guide receptacle to arrange a resilient locking element, which the Guide element detachable after insertion in the guide receptacle holds on.
- This locking element can in turn be a latch arm be resilient in the guide seat.
- the embodiment is the plug, the contacts the plug, the socket and the mating contacts of the socket any.
- reference numeral 10 denotes a first connector with a substantially rectangular cross section.
- a cable connection 12 is closed detect.
- the plug 10 is therefore eight-pole.
- FIG. 4 shows that the outer surface 18 has a first region 18.1 has (adjacent to the cable 12) and one in the direction of insertion (Arrow S) in front of it, inwardly offset area 18.2.
- the latch arm 20 extends from a connection area 18.3 between areas 18.1 and 18.2 approximately parallel to Area 18.2 and protrudes the contacts 14 forward (in Direction).
- the locking arm 20 has an approximately in the middle of its outer surface Thickening 22 on and at its free end one to the outside directed latch 24.
- Inner surface 26 corresponds to the outer surface 18 trained ( Figure 4).
- the one corresponding to section 18.1 Section 26.1 has a guide groove 28 which in Plug direction and is approximately T-shaped in cross section.
- a further (inner) locking arm 30 runs on the inner surface 26 mirror image of the locking arm 20.
- the locking arm 30 accordingly has as well as a thickening 32 as an end latch 34.
- the thickenings 22, 32 are designed so that they in unloaded state of the connector 10 over the areas 18.1 or 26.1 of the outer surface 18 or Protrude inner surface 26.
- Figure 2 shows another connector 40, the two-pole is formed (two contacts 42) and its housing 44 basically corresponds to the housing shape 16 of the plug 10. Because of the two-pole connector 40 is however narrower.
- the outer surface shown in Figure 2 is designed corresponding to the outer surface 18 of the plug 10. This also applies to one arranged on the outer surface 46 outer locking arm 48. In this respect, the description for figure 1 referred.
- inner surface 50 is called in its basic structure, like Figure 4 shows, again designed as a mirror image of the outer surface 46.
- the plug 40 has a spring-like Guide element 52, which the T-shape of the guide groove 28th is designed accordingly.
- the area in front of area 50.1 in the direction of insertion 50.2 of the inner surface 50 corresponds to the inner surface 26 of the plug 10 formed, so that in turn on the appropriate description for the connector 10 is pointed out.
- This area 50.2 accordingly has a further latch arm 54 with a thickening 56 and an end catch 58 on.
- plug 40 is guided into guide groove 28 via guide element 52 until the front end of the guide element strikes region 18.3 of plug 10. With this relative displacement of the two plugs 10, 40, the corresponding thickenings 32, 56 of the latching arms 30, 54 run against one another at the same time, so that the latching arms 30, 54 are pressed outward (in the direction of the opposite latching arms 20 and 48, respectively, (FIG. 4) ).
- the connectors 10, 40 thus assembled together are then placed on the socket 60 and the locking takes place via the respective outside latching arms 20, 48, while the inner locking arms "30, 54 remain ineffective since the corresponding locking lugs 34, 58 can no longer be locked in the locking openings 64, 66 of the socket 60.
- a locking element 70 which via the front end face 17 of the housing 16 of the plug 10 protrudes and has a detent there, which is complete inserted state of the plug 40 behind the front End face 53 of the guide element 52 engages and both Plugs 10, 40 additionally fixed.
