  • a conductor connection element (cable connector) is known.
  • This conductor connection element consists of a union nut through which a multi-core cable is carried out.
  • the cable cores of the cable that are not stripped need to be, with their ends in receiving openings in an insulating piece introduced, whereby the ends of the cable cores deflected from the longitudinal direction become.
  • the insulating piece is connected to the by means of a housing flange Connected union nut, with this assembly insulation displacement clamps, which are firmly in the Housing flange are arranged, come into contact with the ends of the cable cores.
  • the insulation displacement terminals penetrate the outer insulation of the cable wires and thus make an electrical contact.
  • the insulating piece in particular is very difficult and is complex to manufacture. Since this insulating piece does not have to be electrically conductive, it is preferably made of plastic. Here comes in the making of the Isolier Federationes z. B. the injection molding process into consideration, this injection molding process in the design of the insulating piece known from DE 295 12 585 U1 very much is complex. Straight through the oblique openings for the ends of the A cable core is not without a shape after the production of the insulating piece further possible. That is, complex shapes for the production of the insulating piece must be made.
  • the receiving openings have approximately the same cross section as the ends of the Cable cores, since these ends have to be fixed in the receiving openings, so that they cannot retract when inserting the insulation displacement clamps, as this would otherwise prevent electrical contacting.
  • the object of the invention is therefore to provide a cable connector to improve that the manufacture of the cable connector is facilitated under Maintaining an easy and quick assembly.
  • the invention is between the wire receiving part and the contact carrier Connection part provided which the at least one cable core in the Ademaufmaschinem fixed in a contact position.
  • the Connecting part By using the Connecting part, it is possible to the wire receiving part and the connecting part of its shape easier to design, which also makes the molds for production of the two parts can be kept easier. At the same time it is guaranteed that due to the simplified design and the interaction of the Wire receiving part with the connecting part ensures that the end of the at least one cable wire is securely fixed in the wire receiving part and not can recede if the insulation displacement connection between the produces at least one cable core and a contact element.
  • the wire receiving part has at least one Wire guide, which is designed as an open channel upwards.
  • the wire routing it is possible without problems to conduct a wire realize with which it is ensured that after the introduction of the cable wires in the Core receiving part these ends of the cable cores always positioned exactly in the area in which the electrical connection to the insulation displacement terminal is to be established.
  • an upwardly open channel as provided according to the invention, Much easier to shape and demould than an elongated, closed one Receiving opening.
  • the connecting part has one in the direction of Core receiving part pointing mandrel.
  • This mandrel has the task of ending the ends of the Cable cores into the channel of the wire guide, which is open at the top press and fix.
  • the connecting part has at least one longitudinal slot to guide the at least one insulation displacement clamp. While the thorn of The connecting part has the task of closing the ends of the cable wires in the wire guide fix, the longitudinal slot has the task of the insulation piercing through the Connection part is moved to guide the electrical connection by means of Insulation displacement terminal can be done exactly at the point where the end of the cable wire located.
  • the Longitudinal slot of the connecting part, the wire receiving part has a longitudinal slot on, so that the insulation piercing over a larger part of its longitudinal extent in the Wire receiving part and guided in the connecting part and is thus fixed. Thereby can effectively avoid that the electrical connection between the Insulation displacement terminal and the cable core especially when the cable connector Exposed to vibrations.
  • the wire receiving part is connected via the connecting part connected to the contact carrier after installing the cable connector.
  • the connecting part thus has a central function, namely fixing the ends on the one hand of the cable cores in the core receiving part and guidance of the insulation displacement terminals of the Contact carrier.
  • the connecting part ensures the connection between the wire receiving part and the contact carrier, which are thus by means of the connecting part be connected to each other.
  • the mentioned Parts are clipped together, welded or glued, since this is an axial Assembly is possible, which is particularly easy to accomplish.
  • a Screw connection is therefore not an option.
  • the connection of the connecting part with the wire receiving part and the contact carrier, the jacket of the cable, in particular in the form of a strain relief, with include, for. B. in that the mentioned parts and part of the cable sheath can be arranged in a tube.
  • Figure 1 shows a cable connector 1 with its components involved in front of them Assembly.
  • the cable connector 1 is a single or multi-core cable 2 (in the following is assumed to be a multi-core cable 2).
  • the Contacting can be that the cable connector 1 with a corresponding part is connected (for example, the cable connector is as Plug is formed and the corresponding part is a socket), and so is it it is possible to make contact with a by means of the cable connector 1 electronic circuit, a module, a system or the like.
  • the cable connector 1 can, even if this is not shown in the figures, additionally for example by means of a Union nut can be fixed. This fixation can also relieve the strain on the cable 2 with include.
  • the cable 2 has a plurality of cable cores 3, which with their non-stripped ends in one Core receiving part 4 are inserted through a central bore, not designated.
  • the wire receiving part 4 has one or more wire guides 41, which are considered as Open and slightly arched channels are formed at the top.
  • Farther has the wire receiving part 4 at least one longitudinal slot 42, the Number of longitudinal slots 42 according to the number of cable cores 3 to be contacted directed.
  • the cable connector 1 also consists of a connecting part 5, which has 3 longitudinal slots 51 corresponding to the number of cable cores. At the end of the Connecting part 5, which is directed in the direction of the wire receiving part 4 a mandrel 52. In addition, there are several on the outer circumference of the connecting part 5 circumferential ribs 53 arranged. The function of the longitudinal slot 51, the mandrel 52 and the ribs 53 is also in connection with the assembly of the Cable connector 1 explained.
  • the cable connector 1 is assembled as follows:
  • the cable wires 3, which can have the same or different diameters, are cut to a defined length. Then these cable wires are through carried out the central bore in the wire receiving part 4, whereby they are already move as far as possible into the wire guide 41. Then the connecting part guided with its mandrel 52 in the direction of the wire receiving part 4, the mandrel 52 causes the cable wires 3 to move fully into the wire guide 41 and through the corresponding shape of the mandrel 52 can be fixed in these wire guides 41. This is then the contacting position of the cable cores 3.
  • the overhang 43 of the wire receiving part 4 that it comes into contact with at least one of the circumferential ribs 53 of the connecting part, so that thereby the connecting part 5 in is fixed with respect to the wire receiving part 4.
  • the protrusion 43 can also be provided with a locking hook which engages behind a rib 53. Then follows the placement of the contact carrier 6 on the connecting part 5, the Insulation displacement terminals 61 of the contact carrier 6 through the longitudinal slot 51 of the Connection part 5 are performed in the area of the wire receiving part 4, so that the insulation displacement terminals 61 the ends of the cable wires 3, d. H. their isolation, can penetrate to the electrical connection between the cable 3 and the Establish contact 62.
  • the projection 63 of the contact carrier 6 engages via at least one of the ribs 53 of the connecting part, the protrusion 63 can have a locking hook which engages behind one of the ribs 53.
