Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a multi-pole electrical connector system, in which the connector in each case by a multipolar plug with a plug body with several side by side and at least partially stacked contact pin elements and a multi-pin socket with a socket body with several next to each other and at least partially arranged one above the other Contact sleeve elements (4) is formed.
  • Such connector systems are known in many ways and are used in a variety of fields, including the automotive sector used. They are used to connect two cable harnesses, whose cable is fixed on the one hand in the plug and on the other hand in the socket are. By plugging plug and socket can so in a simple and secure way to make an electrical connection between the Cables are produced.
  • the systems include connectors and Bushings with different number of poles, depending on the application.
  • a connector system according to the preamble of claim 1 is known from US-A-3,605,068.
  • the contact pin elements and the contact sleeve elements to attach to the modules is that the modules Have receptacles into which the contact pin elements and the contact sleeve elements are pluggable.
  • the plug body and for the socket body each provided a housing. hereby Can the body and especially the contact pin elements against be protected from damage.
  • a common housing for the plug body and the Socket body of a connector provided.
  • the common Housing particularly well serve as protection for the contact pin elements.
  • the plug is already inserted into the housing during manufacture, while the socket is then used to make the electrical connection first plugged into the housing on site and with the plug is connected.
  • An additional advantage is that the common Housing a merging and contacting plugs and socket facilitates.
  • the latching can according to a particular embodiment of the invention be provided in each case an end piece, which end with a Plug body or a female body is connectable. In this way only the end pieces must be provided with Verrastungsmitteln while the remaining modules for the plug body and for the socket body be formed without latching elements and each other the same can.
  • This can be a basically any number of modules for the Plug body and the socket body are joined to the then in each case an end piece for the latching added at the end becomes.
  • the contact pin elements and the contact sleeve elements in the receptacles latched.
  • the contact elements are advantageously fixed in position and against unintentional ejection during production of the Secure connector.
  • the latching position of the contact element by a stop provided in the recording is determined.
  • the assembly the plug or socket can be facilitated.
  • the modules and the end pieces are preferably formed Jerusalemlipsbar.
  • the assembly of the plug and the sockets is thereby facilitated and accelerates.
  • a preferred option for clipable design of the modules consists in that the modules each two spaced apart, elasticillonbiegbare Einrastangangn and reciprocally trained for this purpose Locking section with engageable by the latching strips latching edges having.
  • the connector according to the invention shown in Figures 1 to 3 comprises a multi-pin connector 1 with a plurality of side by side and stacked contact pin elements 2 and a corresponding multipolar trained socket 3 with several also side by side and stacked contact sleeve elements 4.
  • the Plug 1 is made of three connector modules 5 and two end pieces. 6 and 7, the socket 3 of three bushing modules 8 and two end pieces. 9 and 10 composed.
  • the cables to be connected are not shown for clarity of the presentation.
  • the plug modules 5 each have four juxtaposed recordings 11, in each of which a contact pin element 2 can be inserted.
  • the sleeve modules 8 each have four juxtaposed Recordings 12, in each of which a contact sleeve element 4th is pluggable.
  • the tail 6 four adjacent Shooting 11 and the tail 9 four adjacent shots 12 for each contact pin element 2 and a contact sleeve element 4th on.
  • the plug 1 comprises 16 contact pin elements 2 and the socket 3 16 contact sleeve elements 4, so that a 16-pin connector results.
  • the contact sleeve elements 4 each comprise a receiving sleeve at one end 18 for receiving a contact pin 13 of an associated Contact pin element 2 and at the other end a clamping portion 19th for attaching a cable end.
  • the contact sleeve member 4 also has a projecting spring tongue 20th on, via which the contact sleeve member 4 in a receptacle 12 of a Bushing module 8 can be locked.
  • the spring tongue 20 acts with a Opening 21 together, which is provided in each receptacle 12.
  • the Operation is the same as in the spring tongues 15 of the contact pin elements 2.
  • the receptacles 12 of the tail 9 are in the same way trained and also have a stop 17 to the latching position to determine the contact sleeve elements.
  • the plug modules 5 are each formed with two spaced-apart latching strips 22, the corresponding reciprocal with an inwardly angled portion 23 trained latching edges 24 which at a latching portion 25 of a adjacent plug module 5 are provided, engage behind.
  • the snap-in connectors 22 are designed elastically unfolded, so that the plug modules 5 are clipped on each other. Accordingly, points the end piece 7 snap-in strips 26 with an angled portion 27th and the end piece 6 a latching portion 28 with latching edges 29. Thus, the end pieces 6 and 7 are also with the plug modules. 5 latched.
  • the end pieces 6 and 7 further have on their respective outer side Einrastschrägen 30, which with corresponding recesses 31 of a Housing 32 cooperate to the connector 1 in assembled Condition in the housing 32 to lock.
  • Einrastschrägen 30 which with corresponding recesses 31 of a Housing 32 cooperate to the connector 1 in assembled Condition in the housing 32 to lock.
  • the female modules 8 are designed in the same way as the Stekkermodule 5. In fact, the jack modules 8 are completely in sync the plug modules 5 match. The tails 9 and 10 are correct with the end pieces 6 and 7 in pairs. Accordingly, the Socket 3 by Aufmyklipsen the female modules 8 and the end pieces 9 and 10 assembled and inserted into the housing 32 are locked in this. It also drive the pins 13 in the contact sleeves 18, so that the electrical connection made is.
  • the stekkermodule 5 and the socket modules 8 each have four extensions 33, the in mutually clipped modules 5, 8 associated recesses 34 in pass through the respectively underlying module 5, 8.
  • the extensions 33 engage behind with a small game each in the associated recording 11, 12 existing contact element 2, 4.
  • the extensions 33 form thereby a lock, in addition to the locking of the contact elements 2, 4 on the spring tongues 15, 20 an unintentional pushing out the same from the recordings 11, 12 prevented.
  • the extensions 33 when assembling the modules 5, 8, the correct positioning the contact elements 2, 4 from because not positioned correctly Konktaktmaschinen 2, 4, the extensions abut against this and the associated Module 5, 8 not clipped onto the underlying module 5, 8 can be.
  • a socket according to the invention is produced by a corresponding number of female modules 8 with contact sleeve elements 4 is provided by these introduced into the receptacles 12 and locked there.
  • contact sleeve elements 4 in the Recordings 12 of an end piece 9 inserted and locked.
  • the jack modules 8 are clipped on each other and on the tail 9.
  • an end piece 10th clipped On the other end of the socket modules 8 is an end piece 10th clipped.
  • the cables are already before with the contact sleeve elements 4 have been connected by the ends of each in one Clamping portion 19 were introduced and clamped.
  • the finished one Socket 3 is brought in this state to the site, where they then is inserted into the housing 32.
  • the contact sleeves 18 on the contact pins 13th postponed and contacted with them.
  • the final contact position is due to the locking of the socket 3 by means of the latching slopes 30th and the recesses 31 determined. This is then the electrical connection between the cables of the plug 1 and the cables of the socket 3 made and secured.
  • Plug connection is thus easy. Besides, it can be easier Way connector 1 and 3 sockets produced with different number of poles become.
  • modules 5 and 8 respectively 4 pictures 11 and 12 as well as with the end pieces 6, 7, 9 and 10 Plug 1 and 3 sockets each with 4, 8, 12, 16, etc. Poland produced become.
