Description
Die Erfindung bezieht sich auf eine Steckdose für eine mehrpolige Steckverbindung für den elektrischen Anschluß eines Kraftfahrzeuganhängers an einem Kraftfahrzeug, mit einem Dosengehäuse und einem in dem Dosengehäuse aufgenommenen Kontaktträgereinsatz für die Aufnahme von mit elektrischen Anschlußleitungen zu versehenen elektrischen Steck-kontakten, welcher einen Kontaktträger für die rückwärtige Abstützung der Steckkontakte in dem Kontaktträgereinsatz und einen Kontaktaufsatz für die Halterung der Steckkontakte an dem Kontaktträger aufweist, sowie mit einem Stützkörper für die Abstützung des Kontaktträgereinsatzes auf einer rückwärtigen Montagefläche.The invention relates to a socket for a multi-pin connector for the electrical connection of a motor vehicle trailer on a motor vehicle, with a socket housing and a recorded in the socket housing contact carrier insert for receiving electrical leads to be provided with electrical plug contacts, which a contact carrier for rearward support of the plug contacts in the contact carrier insert and a contact attachment for holding the plug contacts on the contact carrier, as well as with a support body for supporting the contact carrier insert on a rear mounting surface.
Eine derartige Steckdose ist bspw. aus der DE-GM 7812822 bekannt. Dabei istbspw.derKontaktträger selbst zur Bildung des Stützkörpers mit rückwärtigen Beinen ausgestattet, welche beim Ein- oder Anbau des Dosengehäuses an der Ein- oder Anbaufläche zur Anlage kommen. Die bekannte Steckdose ist verhältnismäßig hoch, so daß sie nicht allen Einbausituationen gerecht wird.Such a socket is, for example, from DE-GM 7812822 known. It istbspw.derKontaktträger itself equipped to form the support body with rear legs, which come to the installation or cultivation area when installing or mounting the box housing to the plant. The well-known socket is relatively high, so that it does not meet all installation situations.
Die
Aufgabe dervorliegenden Erfindung ist es, eine Steckdose der eingangs genannten Art vorzuschlagen, welche eine niedrigere Bauhöhe gestattet.Object of the present invention is to propose a socket of the type mentioned, which allows a lower overall height.
Diese Aufgabe wird erfindungsgemäß dadurch gelöst, daß Kontaktträgereinsatz und Gehäusemantel sowie der Stützkörper zueinanderfluchtende erste seitliche Aussparungen für die seitliche Wegführung der Anschlußleitungen aufweisen. Auf diese Weise können im Vergleich zu der herkömmlichen rückwärtigen Herausführung der Anschlußleitungen mehrere Millimeter an Bauhöhe eingespartwerden. Die Steckkontakte werden kürzer und damit das Gesamtgewicht der Steckdose verringert.This object is achieved in that the contact carrier insert and housing shell and the support body aligned first lateral recesses for the lateral routing of the leads. In this way, several millimeters can be saved in height compared to the conventional rear lead out of the leads. The plug contacts are shorter and thus reduces the total weight of the socket.
Wenn die Steckdose in an sich bekannter Weise (vgl.
Dabei liegen die ersten Aussparungen von Kontaktträgereinsatz, Gehäusemantel und Stützkörper den zweirten Aussparungen von Kontaktträgereinsatz und ggf. Kontaktträger vorteilhafterweise einander diametral gegenüber, so daß ein möglichstkurzer Leitungsweg fürdie Herausführung derAnschlußleitung von dem Zusatzstecker aus dem Dosengehäuse vorgesehen ist.In this case, the first recesses of the contact carrier insert, housing shell and support body are the two recesses of the contact carrier insert and possibly contact carrier advantageously diametrically opposite each other, so that a short path as possible for the lead-out of the lead from the additional plug is provided from the socket housing.
Zur weiteren Verringerung der Bauhöhe der Steckdose ist der Schalteinsatz vorteilhafterweise mit seitlich abstehenden bzw. seitlich abgewinkelten Kontakten für die Anschlußleitung ausgestattet.To further reduce the height of the socket of the switching insert is advantageously equipped with laterally projecting or laterally angled contacts for the connection line.
Während der Stützkörper mit seinen rückwärtigen Stirnflächen zu den rückwärtigen Stirnflächen des Dosengehäuses fluchtet, damit eine zuverlässige Abstützung auf einer Montagefläche erfolgt, ist der Kontaktträgereinsatz in den Stützkörper mittels an letzterem vorgesehenen Rasthaken einrastbar ist. Auf diese Weise können die selbständig gefertigten Bauteile Stützkörper und Kontaktträgereinsatz separat aber auch gemeinsam montiert und demontiert werden.While the support body is aligned with its rear end faces to the rear end faces of the socket housing, so that a reliable support on a mounting surface, the contact carrier insert is latched into the support body by means provided on the latter latching hook. In this way, the self-fabricated components support body and contact carrier insert can be separately but also assembled and disassembled together.
Um die Halterung des Kontaktträgereinsatzes in dem Stützkörper zuverlässig zu sichern, sind die Rasthaken bei montiertem, also bei sich auf einer Montagefläche abstützendem Stützkörper gegen elastisches Ausweichen zur Verhinderung der Freigabe des Kontaktträgereinsatzes blockiert.In order to reliably secure the holder of the contact carrier insert in the support body, the latching hooks are blocked in the mounted, so supporting itself on a mounting surface supporting body against elastic deflection to prevent the release of the contact carrier insert.
Die Blockage der Rasthaken erfolgt dabei mittels Sicherheitsvorsprüngen, welche bei der Montage bezüglich der Rasthaken reversibel von einer Freigabestellung in eine Blockierstellung überführbar sind, und zwar durch Abstützen des Stützkörpers auf der Montagefläche.The blocking of the latching hooks takes place by means of security projections, which are reversible in the mounting with respect to the latching hooks from a release position into a blocking position, by supporting the support body on the mounting surface.
Für eine weitere Verringerung der Bauhöhe wird ferner Sorge getragen, wenn die Montagefläche von einem Befestigungsblech gebildet ist, welches mit steckdosenseitigen Gewindebuchsen in dafür vorgesehene rückwärtige Aufnahmekammern des Dosengehäuses eintaucht, und wenn in die Aufnahmekammern von der Vorderseite des Dosengehäuses aus betätigbare Befestigungsschrauben für den Eingriff in die Gewindebuchsen hineinragen. Auf diese Weise stehen die Befestigungsmittel weder über die Vorderseite noch über die Rückseite der Steckdose vor. Die Befestigungsschrauben sind somit kürzer und das Dosengewicht entsprechend geringer. Aufgrund der z. B. als Einschlaghülsen ausgebildeten Gewindebuchsen ergibt sich zusätzlich eine Montageerleichterung.To further reduce the height is further taken care when the mounting surface is formed by a mounting plate, which dips with socket-side threaded sockets in designated rear receiving chambers of the socket housing, and if in the receiving chambers from the front of the socket housing operable mounting screws for engagement in protrude the threaded bushes. In this way, the fasteners are neither on the front nor on the back of the socket before. The mounting screws are thus shorter and the can weight correspondingly lower. Due to the z. B. trained as impact sleeves threaded sockets additionally results in a simplification of assembly.
Zum Zwecke der Abdichtung gegen eindringende Feuchtigkeit ist zwischen der ggf. von dem Befestigungsblech gebildeten Montagefläche und der rückwärtigen Stirnfläche des Gehäusemantels eine Dichtung, bspw. Ringdichtung, angeordnet.For the purpose of sealing against penetrating moisture, a seal, for example a ring seal, is arranged between the mounting surface possibly formed by the fastening plate and the rear end face of the housing jacket.
Desgleichen kann zur Vermeidung des Eindringens von Feuchtigkeit in die Steckdose von der Vorderseite her der Stützkörper mittels einer Dichtmanschette gegen die Innenwandfläche des Dosengehäuses abgestützt werden.Likewise, in order to prevent the penetration of moisture into the socket from the front, the support body can be supported by means of a sealing collar against the inner wall surface of the socket housing.
