Abstract
Description
Die Erfindung geht aus von einer elektrischen Steckverbindung nach der Gattung des Anspruchs 1. Es ist durch die
Beim Zusammenfügen der beiden Steckverbinder treten Gegenkontaktelemente des zweiten Steckverbinders in diese zugewandte, jeweils das freie Ende der Kontaktelemente bildende Kontaktabschnitte ein. Um ein axiales Zurückschieben der Kontaktelemente durch die dabei auftretenden Kräfte zu verhindern, sind die Kontaktelemente durch ein am ersten Steckverbinder verschiebbar gelagertes Verriegelungselement in dessen Verriegelungsstellung gegen eine Axialverschiebung gesichert.When joining the two connectors contact counter-elements of the second connector in this facing, each forming the free end of the contact elements contact sections. In order to prevent an axial pushing back of the contact elements by the forces occurring, the contact elements are secured by a displaceable on the first connector locking element in its locking position against axial displacement.
In nachteiliger Weise ist das Verriegelungselement, bezogen auf eine dem zweiten Steckverbinder zugewandten Steckseite des ersten Steckverbinders soweit axial zurückgesetzt, daß es jedes der Kontaktelemente in einem zugeordneten, axial zurückgesetzten Übergangsabschnitt verriegelt. Da die Führung des Verriegelungselements durch dessen Verschiebbarkeit an dem ersten Steckverbinder eine im Rahmen des Bewegungsspiels vorhandene Öffnung an dem ersten Steckverbinder darstellt, muß ein Dichtmittel, das in gekoppeltem Zustand der Steckverbindung den ersten Steckverbinder gegenüber dem zweiten Steckverbinder abdichtet, in Aufsteckrichtung des zweiten Steckverbinders auf den ersten Steckverbinder dem Verriegelungselement axial nachgeordnet sein, damit bei gekoppelter Steckverbindung das Verriegelungselement im abgedichteten Bereich liegt.Disadvantageously, the locking element, based on a second connector facing the mating side of the first connector as far as axially reset that it locks each of the contact elements in an associated, axially recessed transition section. Since the guide of the locking element by its displaceability on the first connector represents an existing opening in the context of movement on the first connector, a sealing means which seals the first connector relative to the second connector in the coupled state of the connector, in Aufsteckrichtung of the second connector the first connector to be axially downstream of the locking element, so that in coupled connector, the locking element is in the sealed area.
Diese Anordnung führt jedoch in unerwünschter Weise zu einer ausladenden großvolumigen Steckverbindung.However, this arrangement undesirably leads to an expansive large-volume connector.
Ferner ist durch die
Die erfindungsgemäße Steckverbindung mit den kennzeichnenden Merkmalen des Anspruchs 1 hat den Vorteil, dass die zuvor erwähnte Unzulänglichkeit vermieden wird und eine Steckverbindung mit kleinem Bauvolumen verwirklicht ist.The connector according to the invention with the characterizing features of claim 1 has the advantage that the aforementioned inadequacy is avoided and a connector is realized with a small volume of construction.
Mit Kontaktelementen, die jeweils in radialer Beabstandung zu den die freien Enden des Kontaktelements bildenden Kontaktabschnitten wenigstens einen Verriegelungskörper aufweisen, läßt sich das Verriegelungselement, das in der Verriegelungsstellung diese Verriegelungskörper formschlüssig axial überdeckt, in räumlicher Nähe zu den freien Enden der Kontaktelemente und damit zur Steckseite des ersten Steckverbinders anordnen.With contact elements, each having at least one locking body in radial spacing from the free ends of the contact element forming contact portions, the locking element, the locking body in the locking position, this locking body axially overlapping, in spatial proximity to the free ends of the contact elements and thus to the mating side arrange the first connector.
Ein in Aufsteckrichtung des zweiten Steckverbinders auf den ersten Steckverbinder dem Verriegelungselement axial nachgeordnetes Dichtelement kann in entsprechender Weise zur Steckseite des ersten Steckverbinders hin axial vorverlagert werden, so daß bei dieser Anordnung der Übergriff des zweiten Steckverbinders über den ersten Steckverbinder auf einem geringeren axialen Kopplungsweg verwirklicht ist. Dies ermöglicht eine kleinbauende Steckverbindung, die auch unter beengten Einbauverhältnissen noch einsetzbar ist.A in the direction of insertion of the second connector to the first connector, the locking element axially downstream sealing element can in a corresponding manner to Plug side of the first connector are axially forward displaced, so that in this arrangement, the encroachment of the second connector is realized via the first connector on a smaller axial coupling path. This allows a small-sized plug-in connection, which can still be used under tight installation conditions.
In den Unteransprüchen sind vorteilhafte Maßnahmen für die Realisierung der Erfindung angegeben. Insbesondere nach Anspruch 3 weist das Verriegelungselement Kodierteile auf, die ein Schließen der Steckverbindung nur bei einem komplementär kodierten zweiten Steckverbinder ermöglichen. Die Kodierteile lassen sich an dem kleinbauenden Verriegelungselement ohne größeren Fertigungsaufwand variieren, so daß das Gehäuse des ersten Steckverbinders für alle Kopplungsvarianten mit dem zweiten Steckverbinder in unveränderter Form ohne eigene Kodierteile gefertigt werden kann. Dadurch läßt sich die Steckvorrichtung in Großserienfertigung in besonders wirtschaftlich vorteilhafter Weise fertigen.In the dependent claims advantageous measures for the realization of the invention are given. In particular, according to claim 3, the locking element coding parts, which allow a closing of the connector only in a complementary coded second connector. The coding can be varied on the small-sized locking element without much effort, so that the housing of the first connector for all coupling variants with the second connector can be made in unchanged form without separate coding. As a result, the plug-in device can be manufactured in mass production in a particularly economically advantageous manner.
Ein Ausführungsbeispiel der Erfindung ist in der Zeichnung dargestellt und in der nachfolgenden Beschreibung näher beschrieben. Es zeigt die einzige Figur eine Steckverbindung, teilweise geschnitten, in einer Seitenansicht.An embodiment of the invention is illustrated in the drawing and described in more detail in the following description. It shows the only figure a connector, partially cut, in a side view.
Bei dem Ausführungsbeispiel sind als Teile einer Steckverbindung 11 abschnittsweise ein erster Steckverbinder 12 und ein mit diesem koppelbarer zweiter Steckverbinder 13 dargestellt. Der erste Steckverbinder 12 weist ein Gehäuse 14 auf, das aus elektrisch isoliertem Kunststoff hergestellt ist. Das Gehäuse 14 ist als ein annähernd quaderförmiger langgestreckter Körper ausgebildet, der mit dem Schließen der Steckverbindung 11 in eine angepaßte topfförmige Einsteckaufnahme 16 des zweiten Steckverbinder 13 bereichsweise eingefügt wird.In the embodiment, parts of a
In einer Aufnahme 17 einer Mantelfläche 18 des Gehäuses 14 ist ein Dichtmittel 19 ortsfest gelagert, das beim Schließen der Steckverbindung 11 zu einer Innenfläche 21 in der Einstecköffnung 16 des zweiten Steckverbinders 13 hin dichtet, so daß das Innere der Steckverbindung 11 über diese Kopplungsstellen der beiden Steckverbinder 12, 13 abgedichtet ist.In a receptacle 17 a
In dem Gehäuse 14 ist eine der Polzahl des ersten Steckverbinders 12 entsprechende Anzahl von in ihrem Längsverlauf axial gerichteten Aufnahmekammern 22 ausgebildet, die in einer Reihe nebeneinander liegend angeordnet sind und von denen eine, im Schnitt durch eine Längsachse 23 in der Figur dargestellt ist.In the
In jede der Aufnahmekammern 22 ist ein Kontaktelement 24, das als eine Flachsteckhülse ausgebildet ist, längs eines Pfeiles 26 eingesetzt und symmetrisch zur Längsachse 23 angeordnet.In each of the
Das Kontaktelement 24 weist in Einsteckrichtung vorne liegend in einem freiliegenden Endbereich 27 des Kontaktelementes 24 einen Kontaktabschnitt 28 auf. Der Kontaktabschnitt 28 ist gebildet durch vier Federschenkel, die sich paarweise symmetrisch zur Längsachse 23 gegenüberstehen und zur Bildung von Kontaktstellen mit einem messerförmigen Kontaktteil 32 des zweiten Steckverbinders 13 bogenförmig aufeinander zulaufen. An ihren freien Enden sind die Federschenkel 29 zur Bildung eines Einführbereiches 33 im wesentlichen gegenläufig auseinandergespreizt.The
An den Kontaktabschnitt 28 schließt sich ein langgezogener Mittelabschnitt 34 an, in dem die Federschenkel 29 mit weitem Abstand, der die mehrfache Dicke des Kontaktteils 32 beträgt, parallel zueinander laufen. Der Mittelabschnitt 34 geht über in einen halsförmigen Übergangsabschnitt 36, dem ein, das andere Ende des Kontaktelements 24 bildender Anschlußabschnitt 37 nachfolgt. Der Übergangsabschnitt 36 weist gegenüber den ihn begrenzenden Abschnitten 34, 37 eine verringerte Querschnittsfläche auf. In dem Anschlußabschnitt 37 ist nicht näher dargestellter Weise eine elektrische Leitung 38 elektrisch kontaktierend angeschlossen.The
Der Kontaktabschnitt 28 und der Mittelabschnitt 34 ist ummantelt von einem kastenförmigen Kontaktrahmen 39. Aus sich parallel gegenüberstehenden Seitenwänden 41 des Kontaktrahmens 39 sind Rastzungen 42 ausgeklinkt, die schräg zur Längsachse 23 nach außen geneigt bei vollständig in die Aufnahmekammer 22 eingeschobenem Kontaktelement 24 Vorsprünge 43 des Gehäuses, die in die Aufnahmekammer 22 ragen, hintergreifen und so eine primäre Auszugssicherung des Kontaktelements 24 aus der Aufnahmekammer 22 bilden.The
Im Endbereich 27 weist der Kontaktrahmen 39 von den Seitenwänden 41 radial abstehende Verriegelungskörper 44 auf. In dem Gehäuse 14 ist, dem Endbereich 27 der Kontaktelemente 24 benachbart, ein Verriegelungselement 46 quer zur Einsteckrichtung der Kontaktelemente 24 und der Verriegelungskörper 44 in die Aufnahmekammern 22 verschiebbar gelagert.In the
Das Verriegelungselement 46 ist von einer Entriegelungsstellung, in der es die Zusammenführung der beiden Steckverbinder 12, 13 verhindert, in eine Verriegelungsstellung, in der die Kopplung der beiden Steckverbinder 12, 13 möglich ist und in der die Verriegelungskörper 44 an den Kontaktelementen 24 von dem Verriegelungselement 46 formschlüssig axial überdeckt sind, überführbar. Das Verriegelungselement 46 ist jedoch nur dann in die Verriegelungsstellung überführbar, wenn die in die Gehäuse 14 eingebrachten Kontaktelemente 24 völlig in die Aufnahmekammern 22 eingeschoben sind. Das Verriegelungselement 46 bildet dann eine sekundäre Auszugsicherung der Kontaktelemente 24 aus den Aufnahmekammern 22.The
Das Verriegelungselement 46 ist mit Kodierteilen 47 versehen, die ein Schließen der Steckverbindung 11 nur bei einem komplementär kodierten zweiten Steckverbinder 13 ermöglichen. Somit kann das Gehäuse 14 ohne Kodierteile 47 in einheitlicher Ausgestaltung in großer Stückzahl kostengünstig gefertigt werden, da die Verkörperung der Kodierung des ersten Steckverbinders 12 an dem kleinen und einfach auswechselbaren Verriegelungselement 46 erfolgt.The
An der Mantelfläche 18 des Gehäuses 14 ist, dem Verriegelungselement 46 in axialer Richtung nachfolgend und zu dem Übergangsabschnitt 36 und einem angrenzenden Teil des Mittelabschnitts 34 radial beabstandet, das Dichtmittel 19 ortsfest gelagert. Das Dichtmittel 19 ist als eine umlaufende geschlossene gummielastische Radialdichtung ausgebildet, die der Form des Gehäuses 14, welche durch die in Reihe angeordneten Kontaktelemente 24 axial langgestreckt ist, angepaßt ist. Das Dichtmittel 19 weist außenliegend radial hervorstehende umlaufende Dichtwülste 48 auf, die sich bei geschlossener Steckverbindung 11 an der Innenfläche 21 der topfförmigen Einsteckaufnahme 16 des zweiten Steckverbinder 13 kraftschlüssig abstützen und die Steckverbindung 11 linienförmig abdichten.On the
Durch die räumliche Nähe des Dichtungsmittels 19 zu dem freiliegenden Endbereich 27 der Kontaktelemente 24 und zu den dem zweiten Steckverbinder 13 zugewandten Kontaktabschnitten 28 kann die Einsteckaufnahme 16 in ihrer Axialerstreckung zum Umgreifen des Dichtmittels 19 kurz gehalten werden.Due to the spatial proximity of the sealing means 19 to the exposed
Diese Anordnung, die ermöglicht ist durch die Anbringung des Verriegelungselements 46 und der Verriegelungskörper 44 in einem Teil des ersten Steckverbinders 12, der dem zweiten Steckverbinder 13 benachbart ist, führt zu einer kleinbauenden Steckverbindung 11, die auch noch unter beengten Einbauverhältnissen, wie sie in Kraftfahrzeugen häufig vorkommen, einsetzbar ist.This arrangement, which is made possible by the attachment of the
