Description
Winkelförmiger SteckerträgerAngular connector carrier
Die Erfindung bezieht sich auf einen winkelförmigen Steckerträger, insbesondere zum Anbau an ein Aggregategehäuse, bestehend aus einem am Aggregategehäu- se feststehend und drehsicher befestigbaren Sockelteil und einem dieses mit seinem einen Schenkel teilweise übergreifenden und vermittels eines gegenseitigen formschlüssigen Eingriffes zwar verdrehbar aber axial unverschieblich verbundenen, winkelförmigen Trägerteil für die Aufnahme eines die Steckkontakte haltern- den Isolierkörpers, wobei das Sockelteil und der diesem zugewandte Schenkel des winkelförmigen Trägerteiles im Bereich ihrer gegenseitigen Überdeckung mit einer Rasteinrichtung zur gegenseitigen Festlegung in einer auswählbaren Verdrehstellung des winkelförmigen Trägerteiles ausgestattet sind.The invention relates to an angular plug carrier, in particular for attachment to an assembly housing, consisting of a base part which is fixed to the assembly housing and can be fastened in a rotationally secure manner, and a base part which partially overlaps this with its one leg and is rotatable but axially immovably connected by means of a mutual positive engagement. Angled support part for receiving an insulating body holding the plug contacts, the base part and the leg of the angled support part facing it being equipped in the area of their mutual overlap with a latching device for mutual fixing in a selectable rotational position of the angled support part.
Ein derartiger, mit einer Rasteinrichtung ausgestatteter winkelförmiger Steckerträ- ger ist insbesondere aus der DE-OS 195 20 544 bekannt, gemäß der vorgesehen ist, daß in im Sockelteil und im diesem zugeordneten Schenkel des winkelförmigen Trägerteiles im Bereich ihres gegenseitigen Übergriffes vorgesehenen, gegensinnig gerichteten, umlaufenden und in ihrem Ausnehmungsgrund eine Art Verzahnung bildenden Vorsprüngen ausgestatten Nutausnehmungen ein in radialer Richtung federnd elastisch ausgebildetes, entlang seines Innen-oder Außenum- fanges eine von der reinen Kreisform abweichende Grundrißform aufweisendes und mit den Vorsprüngen im Ausnehmungsgrund zusammenwirkendes Verbindungsteil angeordnet ist, welches zumindest in einer vorgesehenen Verwirklichungsform durch eine Wellfeder gebildet sein kann und im Zusammenwirken mit den Vorsprüngen im Ausnehmungsgrund eine Verrastung von Sockelteil und winkelförmigem Trägerteil in einer Anzahl frei wählbarer Verschwenkstellungen ermöglicht. Bei dieser Ausbildung der Verbindung zwischen feststehendem Sockelteil und diesem gegenüber um seine Achse schwenkbeweglichem winkelförmigen
Trägerteil bildet ein einziges Teil, nämlich die Wellfeder, einerseits die abzugssichere Verbindung zwischen Sockel-und Trägerteil und andererseits zugleich auch die überwindbare gegenseitige Verdrehsicherung bzw. Verrastung von Sockelteil und Trägerteil in einer ausgewählten Verdrehstellung. Um diese beiden der Ver- bindung zwischen Sockelteil und Trägerteil zukommenden Aufgaben erfüllen zu können ist bei dem bekannten Steckerträger einerseits eine sorgfältige Gestaltung der Wellfeder und andererseits eine präzise Ausbildung wenigstens der in ihrem Ausnehmungsgrund die die Rastmarken oder dergl. bildenden radialen Vorsprünge aufweisenden Nutausnehmung erforderlich, was einerseits einen verhältnismäßig hohen Herstellungsaufwand erfordert und andererseits zugleich auch eine nicht unbeträchtliche Erschwerung im Zusammenbau des Steckerträgers mit sich bringt.Such an angular connector carrier equipped with a latching device is known in particular from DE-OS 195 20 544, according to which it is provided that in the base part and in the associated leg of the angular carrier part provided in the region of their mutual overlap, in opposite directions, circumferential projections forming a kind of toothing in their recess base provide groove recesses with a radially resiliently elastic, along its inner or outer circumference a ground plan shape deviating from the pure circular shape and cooperating with the projections in the recess base, which is arranged at least in an intended form of implementation can be formed by a corrugated spring and in cooperation with the projections in the recess base a locking of the base part and the angular support part in a number of freely selectable pivot positions n enables. In this embodiment, the connection between the fixed base part and this angularly pivotable relative to its axis Carrier part forms a single part, namely the corrugated spring, on the one hand the non-detachable connection between the base and the support part and on the other hand also the negotiable mutual anti-rotation or locking of the base part and the support part in a selected rotational position. In order to be able to fulfill these two tasks associated with the connection between the base part and the support part, the known plug support requires, on the one hand, a careful design of the corrugated spring and, on the other hand, a precise design of at least the groove recess having the locking marks or the like forming radial projections, which, on the one hand, requires a relatively high level of production expenditure and, on the other hand, also brings with it a not inconsiderable complication in the assembly of the plug carrier.
Ausgehend von diesem Stand der Technik liegt der Erfindung die Aufgabe zugrunde einen winkelförmigen Steckerträger der eingangs bezeichneten Bauart dahin- gehend zu verbessern, daß er bei geringerem Herstellungsaufwand und einer den Anforderungen der Praxis gerecht werdenden Anzahl von verrastbaren Ver- schwenkstellungen zwischen Sockelteil und Trägerteil gegen ein unbeabsichtigtes Verstellen einer eingestellten Schwenkwinkellage durch leichtes Berühren oder auch unter dem Einfluß von bei Maschinenaggregaten unvermeidlichen Vibratio- nen hinreichend gesichert ist.On the basis of this prior art, the object of the invention is to improve an angular plug carrier of the type described at the outset in such a way that, with less production outlay and a number of latchable pivoting positions between the base part and the carrier part which meet the requirements of practice, it counteracts unintentional adjustment of a set swivel angle position is sufficiently secured by lightly touching it or under the influence of vibrations which are unavoidable in machine units.
Diese Aufgabe wird bei einem winkelförmigen Steckerträger der eingangs aufgezeigten Bauart erfindungsgemäß dadurch gelöst, daß die im Bereich der gegenseitigen Überdeckung von Sockelteil und Schenkel des winkelförmigen Trägerteiles vorgesehene Rasteinrichtung vom Außenumfang des einen zum Innenumfang des anderen Teiles hin einander gegenüberliegend einerseits wenigstens zwei starre ebene Flächen und andererseits eine entsprechende Anzahl radial verstellbarer, gleichfalls ebener Flächen umfaßt, wobei die ebenen Flächen derart angeordnet sind, daß sich bei in einer Raststellung befindlichem Trägerteil sämtliche Flächen in gegenseitiger flächenhafter Anlage befinden.
Die Erfindung zeichnet sich somit auf der einen Seite durch eine Trennung der Funktionen einer axialen Abzugssicherung und einer Rasteinrichtung zur überwindbaren gegenseitigen Festlegung von Sockelteil und Trägerteil und auf der anderen Seite gleichzeitig durch eine Begrenzung der möglichen verrasteten Ver- Schwenkstellungen auf die im jeweiligen Anwendungsfall des Steckerträgers tatsächlich nutzbare Anzahl aus, mit der Folge einer vergleichsweise günstigen Herstellbarkeit der Einzelteile und eines vereinfachten Zusammenbaues des Steckerträgers. Darüber hinaus besteht dabei in vorteilhafter Weise die Möglichkeit die Höhe der Federlast so einzustellen, daß eine gegenseitige Verdrehung von Sok- kel-und Trägerteil zwar noch von Hand, vorzugsweise aber mittels eines Werkzeuges bewerkstelligt werden kann, in jedem Falle aber eine ungewollte selbsttätige Änderung der Schwenkwinkellage des Trägerteiles gegenüber dem Sockelteil unter dem Einfluß von bei Maschinenaggregaten unvermeidlichen Vibrationen oder aber auch infolge ungewollter leichterer Berührungen, wie sie beim Umgang mit maschinellen Einrichtungen oder Installationen, beispielsweise als steifende Berührung oder dergl., nun einmal vorkommen, ausgeschlossen ist. In dieser Hinsicht zeichnet sich die erfindungsgemäße Verrastung infolge des Zusammenwirkens ebener Flächenpaare und damit durch eine verhältnismäßig hohe Rastkraft aus.This object is achieved according to the invention in the case of an angular plug carrier of the type shown at the outset in that the latching device provided in the region of mutual overlap of the base part and leg of the angular carrier part from the outer circumference of the one part to the inner circumference of the other part opposite one another on the one hand at least two rigid flat surfaces and on the other hand includes a corresponding number of radially adjustable, likewise flat surfaces, the flat surfaces being arranged in such a way that when the carrier part is in a latching position, all surfaces are in mutual planar contact. The invention is thus distinguished on the one hand by a separation of the functions of an axial trigger safety device and a latching device for the mutually negotiable fixing of the base part and the support part and on the other hand at the same time by a limitation of the possible latched swivel positions to those in the respective application of the plug holder actually usable number, with the consequence of a comparatively inexpensive manufacturability of the individual parts and a simplified assembly of the plug carrier. In addition, there is advantageously the possibility of adjusting the height of the spring load in such a way that mutual rotation of the base part and the support part can still be done by hand, but preferably by means of a tool, but in any case an unwanted automatic change in the Swivel angle position of the support part relative to the base part under the influence of vibrations that are unavoidable in machine assemblies or also as a result of unwanted lighter touches, such as occur when handling machine facilities or installations, for example as a stiff touch or the like. In this regard, the locking according to the invention is characterized by the interaction of flat surface pairs and thus by a relatively high locking force.
Unter Einbeziehung der Offenbarung der an sich offensichtlichen Möglichkeit einerIncluding the revelation of the obvious possibility of one
Umkehrung der Anordnung von in radialer Richtung federnd abgestützter und starrer Rastfläche sieht eine bevorzugte Verwirklichungsform vor, daß die im Bereich der Überdeckung des einen Schenkels des winkelförmigen Trägerteiles mit dem Sockelteil angeordnete Rasteinrichtung wenigstens zwei tangential zu seinem Au- ßenumfang ausgebildete starre und ebene Rastflächen aufweist, denen eine entsprechende Anzahl im Innenumfang des Schenkels des Trägerteiles angeordneter, entgegen einer Federlast radial beweglicher, gleichfalls ebener Flächen zugeordnet ist.Reversing the arrangement of the spring-loaded and rigid locking surface in a radial direction provides a preferred embodiment that the locking device arranged in the area of the overlap of one leg of the angular support part with the base part has at least two rigid and flat locking surfaces formed tangentially to its outer circumference, to which a corresponding number of planes arranged in the inner circumference of the leg of the carrier part and radially movable against a spring load is assigned.
Zwar ist es in vielen Anwendungsfällen vollkommen ausreichend, wenn das winkelförmige Trägerteil in lediglich zwei zueinander um 180° verdrehten Stellungen ge-
genüber dem Sockelteil verrastbar ist, jedoch kann es im Interesse eine Verringerung der Typenvielfalt und damit Optimierung der Lagerhaltung von besonderem Vorteil sein, wenn das winkelförmige Trägerteil in vier unterschiedlichen, insbesondere jeweils um 90° gegeneinander verdrehten Stellungen gegenüber dem Sockelteil verrastbar ist, wozu nach einer bevorzugten Verwirklichungsform vorgesehen ist, daß die Rasteinrichtung eine gerade Anzahl, insbesondere acht, in gleichmäßiger Anordnung ausgebildeter Paare von ebenen und zur Erzeugung einer Rastkraft miteinander zusammenwirkenden Flächen umfaßt. In vorteilhafter Ausgestaltung dieser Verwirklichungsform kann dann weiter vorge- sehen sein, daß sämtliche am Außenumfang des Sockelteiles und sämtliche im Innenumfang des Schenkels des Trägerteiles ausgebildeten ebenen Flächen untereinander jeweils gleich groß ausgebildet sind, wodurch die Herstellung der beteiligten Teile vereinfacht wird.In many applications it is entirely sufficient if the angular support part is in only two positions rotated by 180 ° relative to one another. Compared to the base part can be locked, however, in the interest of reducing the variety of types and thus optimizing the storage, it can be particularly advantageous if the angular support part can be locked in four different positions, in particular in each case rotated by 90 ° relative to the base part, for which purpose one In a preferred embodiment, it is provided that the latching device comprises an even number, in particular eight, pairs of planes formed in a uniform arrangement and interacting with one another to generate a latching force. In an advantageous embodiment of this embodiment, it can then be further provided that all of the planar surfaces formed on the outer circumference of the base part and all flat surfaces in the inner circumference of the leg of the support part are each of the same size, thereby simplifying the manufacture of the parts involved.
Insbesondere ist in einer vorteilhaften weiteren Ausgestaltung der bevorzugten Verwirklichungsform vorgesehen, daß die gegen Federlast radial beweglichen ebenen Flächen durch Blattfederabschnitte gebildet und radial gerichtete nuten- förmige Ausnehmungen überbrückend in dem sie aufnehmenden Teil, insbesondere in dem winkelförmigen Schenkels des Trägerteiles, angeordnet sind. Soweit die Blattfederabschnitte jeweils als Einzelteile ausgebildet und voneinander unabhängig in die nutenförmigen Ausnehmungen eingesetzt sind, weisen die nutenförmigen Ausnehmungen zweckmäßigerweise beidseitig und parallel zu ihrer Längserstrek- kung ausgerichtete, AbStützflächen für die Seitenränder der Blattfederabschnitte bildende Stützbereiche auf. Insbesondere in Verbindung mit der Anwendung von als Einzelteile ausgebildeten und voneinander unabhängig in die nutenförmigen Ausnehmungen eingesetzten Blattfederabschnitten ergibt sich eine weitere, für die Realisierung einer durch das Zusammenwirken von Flächenpaarungen gekennzeichneten Verrastung von Sok- kelteil und Trägerteii vorteilhafte Ausgestaltungsform ergibt sich im Weiteren da- durch, daß die die gegen Federlast radial beweglichen ebenen Flächen bildenden
Blattfederabschnitte im unbelasteten Zustand jeweils eine der Gegenfläche zugewandte Vorspannungswölbung aufweisen.In particular, in an advantageous further embodiment of the preferred embodiment, it is provided that the flat surfaces that are radially movable against spring load are formed by leaf spring sections and that radially directed groove-shaped recesses are bridged in the receiving part, in particular in the angular leg of the carrier part. Insofar as the leaf spring sections are each formed as individual parts and are inserted into the groove-shaped recesses independently of one another, the groove-shaped recesses expediently have support regions which are oriented on both sides and parallel to their longitudinal extension and form support areas for the side edges of the leaf spring sections. In particular in conjunction with the use of leaf spring sections designed as individual parts and inserted independently of one another into the groove-shaped recesses, this results in a further embodiment which is advantageous for realizing a latching of the base part and carrier part characterized by the interaction of surface pairs that form the flat surfaces which are radially movable against spring load In the unloaded state, leaf spring sections each have a bias curvature facing the counter surface.
In einer bei einer Vielzahl von vorgesehenen möglichen Raststellungen aufwei- senden Verrastung für die Verschwenkstellungen von Sockelteil und Trägerteil eine Vereinfachung im Zusammenbau zu erreichen, kann gemäß einer weiteren Ausgestaltungsform vorgesehen sein, daß die die gegen Federlast radial beweglichen ebenen Flächen bildenden Blattfederabschnitte untereinander über Stege zu einem vieleckigen Ringkörper verbunden sind. Dies ermöglicht auf der einen Seite eine simultane Montage sämtlicher für eine beliebige Vielzahl von Raststellungen erforderlicher Blattfedern und auf der anderen Seite eine optimale Abstützung der einzelnen Blattfederabschnitte an dem sie tragenden Teil des winkelförmigen Steckerträgers.To achieve a simplification of the assembly in a latching for the pivoting positions of the base part and the carrier part, provided with a large number of possible latching positions, it can be provided according to a further embodiment that the leaf spring sections forming the flat surfaces that are radially movable against spring load are connected to one another via webs a polygonal ring body are connected. On the one hand, this enables simultaneous assembly of all the leaf springs required for any number of latching positions and, on the other hand, optimal support of the individual leaf spring sections on the part of the angular plug carrier that carries them.
In einer weiteren vorteilhaften Ausgestaltung kann ferner vorgesehen sein, daß die am Außenumfang des Sockelteiles ausgebildeten starren ebenen Flächen und die sie beabstandenden Zwischenflächen untereinander gleich groß gestaltet sind und insgesamt eine regelmäßig polygone Grundrißform bilden.In a further advantageous embodiment, it can further be provided that the rigid flat surfaces formed on the outer circumference of the base part and the intermediate surfaces spacing them apart are of the same size and overall form a regularly polygonal plan shape.
