Definitions

  • Plug connection for connecting signal and power supply lines to a consumer
  • the invention relates to a plug connection consisting essentially of a plug and a plug receptacle for connecting a cable, which contains a multiplicity of signal lines and power supply lines, to a consumer, e.g. to the electronic controller of a motor vehicle.
  • a plug connection consisting essentially of a plug and a plug receptacle for connecting a cable, which contains a multiplicity of signal lines and power supply lines, to a consumer, e.g. to the electronic controller of a motor vehicle.
  • -Control system such as ABS, ASR, ESP etc., wherein the contacts of the plug are engaged with the connection contacts of the plug receptacle inside a watertight housing.
  • Plug connections of this type are known. If e.g. the connector is to be housed in the engine compartment of a motor vehicle, it is absolutely necessary to protect the contacts and thus the interior in which the contacts interlock against the ingress of water, oil and dirt. Leakage currents could otherwise occur between the individual contacts, in particular between the contacts used for power supply, which are designed for high currents, which would not only interfere with the function of the devices, but which could also result in dangerous heating of the plug connection.
  • the invention is therefore based on the object of designing a plug connection of this type in such a way that it has a relatively simple, yet robust construction and high mechanical strength and resistance to rough
  • Treatment against leakage currents is immune.
  • it should be an easy-to-close and releasable plug-in connection in order to minimize the assembly effort during manufacture of the vehicle and during maintenance.
  • FIG. 1 shows a perspective view of a connector receptacle or a connector collar that serves to receive a connector.
  • a connector shown as an embodiment of the invention, e.g. the electronic controller (ECU) of a motor vehicle control system is electrically connected.
  • ECU electronic controller
  • Such a connector is particularly at risk if the electronic controller is located in the engine compartment of the vehicle.
  • the connector size depends on the system; the invention was tested using 47-pin and 26-pin plug connections.
  • the structure according to the invention is in principle also suitable and advantageous for other sizes.
  • the illustrated connector collar 1 is part of a connector receptacle.
  • the plug collar 1 sits on a (not shown) controller housing and can be produced together with it, for example by injection; it is also possible to use a pre-molded part or a corresponding prefabricated insert.
  • the collar 1 according to the invention and the plug connection according to the invention differ from the previously used plug collars which had no partition walls, inter alia, by the following features:
  • the permanent current-carrying "power contacts” are the contacts 2, 3 provided for the power supply; 4,5, are no longer arranged adjacent, but are placed on the opposite end faces of the collar 1 and separated from the other signal contacts 6 by transverse inner walls 7, 8.
  • the interior is divided into three (or divided into several interior spaces), which means that in the event of small amounts of moisture, an electrical connection from the positive pole or the power contact connected to the positive pole of the battery, and the negative pole or the mass in the connector collar and thus the risk of a short circuit and fire are prevented.
  • the overall height of the longitudinal rib 9 ensures that when the mating connector is installed, the rib 9 first dips into the mating connector. This creates a more accurate demonstration; finding the contacts in the mating connector - plug and connector receptacle - is made easier. There is a shorter "tolerance chain" than with corresponding plugs without such guide ribs.
  • a coding is created by arranging cutouts in the rib; this saves space on the outer wall in the longitudinal direction compared to the usual measures.
  • the symmetrical arrangement of locking knobs 10 on the outer surface of the collar 1 enables the use of mating connectors (not shown), the locking of which is alternatively possible from one of the two end faces, without a change in the connector collar being necessary.
  • the arrangement of the contacts 2-6 in the plug collar 1 is such that various customer-specific contact systems can be used without having to change the design of the collar 1.
  • the position of the contacts is independent of the contact types used and enables a higher standardization of the printed circuit boards used in the controller. It is no longer necessary to adapt the footprint on the circuit board to the customer-specific plug-in systems currently used with different grid / row spacing.
  • two power contacts 2, 3; 4.5 are provided, which are each at the same potential, but belong to different circuits.
  • Such a division into several power supply contacts (same potential) can also be advantageous or even necessary for mechanical reasons or to limit the contact area.

Abstract

L'invention concerne un connecteur à fiche et à douille, constitué d'une fiche mâle et d'une douille à collerette (1), qui permet de connecter un câble, contenant une pluralité de conducteurs de signaux et de conducteurs d'alimentation, à un dispositif électrique, par exemple au régulateur électronique d'un système de régulation de véhicule. L'intérieur du connecteur est constitué d'un boîtier étanche dans lequel les contacts de la fiche mâle entrent en contact avec les contacts de la douille (2-6) lors de leur assemblage. Selon l'invention, l'intérieur du boîtier est subdivisé par des cloisons (7, 8) en au moins trois compartiments séparés étanches, dont au moins un est destiné aux contacts (6) des conducteurs de signaux et au moins un aux contacts (2, 3; 4, 5) des conducteurs d'alimentation de même potentiel. Sur la face avant du connecteur, les contacts d'alimentation sont disposés en plusieurs groupes en fonction de leur potentiel électrique.
