Description

Connecteur électrique à verrouillage de connexion par cadenas. Electrical connector with connection lock by padlock.
L'invention concerne un connecteur électrique dont le verrouillage de connexion est réalisé par cadenas. On connaît des connecteurs électriques dont le verrouillage de la connexion est assuré au moyen d'un crochet d'un élément de connecteur engagé en prise dans l'autre élément et, que l'on peut verrouiller éventuellement au moyen d'un cadenas ou d'une serrure à clef. Néanmoins, un tel agencement de verrouillage du connecteur est peu commode et ne présente par une sécurité maximale.The invention relates to an electrical connector whose connection lock is produced by padlock. Electrical connectors are known, the connection of which is locked by means of a hook of a connector element engaged in engagement in the other element, and which can optionally be locked by means of a padlock or of 'a key lock. However, such a connector locking arrangement is inconvenient and does not provide maximum security.
L'invention vise à remédier à ces inconvénients et propose un connecteur électrique de type comprenant un élément de contact récepteur ou embase et un élément de contact mobile ou fiche, laquelle est destinée à être enfichée dans l'embase à la connexion, caractérisé en ce que l'embase comporte un socle externe latéral, proche de son ouverture d'enfichage et formant palier de coulissement d'une tige de cadenas enfilée dans ledit socle, le socle étant ouvert sur la face interne de la partie d'ouverture de l'embase pour permettre à ladite tige de cadenas de venir en prise dans un évidement ou une gorge complémentaire formé latéralement sur le corps de la fiche à une position adéquate pour correspondre à la connexion.The invention aims to remedy these drawbacks and proposes an electrical connector of the type comprising a receiver contact element or receptacle and a movable contact element or plug, which is intended to be inserted in the receptacle on connection, characterized in that the base comprises a lateral external base, close to its insertion opening and forming a sliding bearing of a padlock rod threaded into said base, the base being open on the internal face of the opening part of the base to allow said padlock rod to engage in a recess or a complementary groove formed laterally on the body of the plug in a position suitable to correspond to the connection.
Bien que le dit évidement ou la gorge de la fiche puisse être formé sur une portion de son corps, il est commode de prévoir pour un connecteur à conformation cylindrique de section circulaire, une gorge annulaire s 'étendant sur la périphérie circulaire du corps de la fiche.Although the said recess or the groove of the plug can be formed on a portion of its body, it is convenient to provide for a connector with a cylindrical conformation of circular section, an annular groove extending over the circular periphery of the body of the plug.
Il résulte de cette disposition que la position connectée du connecteur selon l'invention est verrouillée de façon sûre après que le cadenas soit fermé à clef. La liaison entre l'embase et la fiche est obtenue directement par la tige de cadenas. Réciproquement, l'enfilage de la tige de cadenas dans le socle de l'embase, verrouillée à clef dans la tête de cadenas empêche également de façon sûre la mise en service du connecteur.It follows from this arrangement that the connected position of the connector according to the invention is securely locked after the padlock is locked. The connection between the base and the plug is obtained directly by the padlock rod. Conversely, threading the padlock rod into the base of the base, locked in the padlock head also securely prevents the connector from being put into service.
L'invention est illustrée ci-après à l'aide d'un exemple de réalisation décrit à titre non limitatif en référence aux dessins annexés, sur lesquels :The invention is illustrated below using an embodiment described without limitation with reference to the accompanying drawings, in which:
- la figure 1 est une vue en perspective d'un connecteur selon l'invention en position déconnectée ; - la figure 2 est une vue en coupe longitudinale du connecteur selon l'invention en position déconnectée ;- Figure 1 is a perspective view of a connector according to the invention in the disconnected position; - Figure 2 is a longitudinal sectional view of the connector according to the invention in the disconnected position;
- la figure 3 est une vue analogue à la figure 1 du connecteur en position connectée ; et - la figure 4 est une vue analogue à la figure 2 du connecteur en position connectée.- Figure 3 is a view similar to Figure 1 of the connector in the connected position; and - Figure 4 is a view similar to Figure 2 of the connector in the connected position.
Le connecteur représenté, équipé du dispositif de verrouillage de la connexion selon l'invention, est d'un type classique comprenant une embase 1 et une fiche mobile complémentaire 3. Il est de conformation cylindrique et de section circulaire.The connector shown, equipped with the connection locking device according to the invention, is of a conventional type comprising a base 1 and a complementary movable plug 3. It is of cylindrical conformation and of circular section.
La fiche 3 comporte des broches de contact 5 disposées en partie médiane avant de son corps externe 7 et parallèles à l'axe du connecteur.The plug 3 comprises contact pins 5 arranged in the middle middle part of its external body 7 and parallel to the axis of the connector.
L'embase 1 est complémentaire de la fiche et comprend des alvéoles 9 de réception des broches 5 de la fiche, disposés légèrement en retrait par rapport à sa face d'ouverture avant 1 1 , et un corps externe 13 de diamètre légèrement supérieur à celui de la fiche 3.The base 1 is complementary to the plug and comprises cells 9 for receiving the pins 5 of the plug, arranged slightly recessed with respect to its front opening face 1 1, and an external body 13 of diameter slightly larger than that of sheet 3.
L'embase 1 comporte en outre un socle latéral cylindrique 15 disposé proche de l'ouverture 1 1 et parallèle au plan de l'ouverture. Ce socle 15 est donc perpendiculaire à l'axe du connecteur. Il comporte un alésage interne 17 formé dans l'axe du socle et dont le diamètre est égal, à faible jeu près, à celui de la tige 19 (cylindrique) d'un cadenas à tête 21 destiné au verrouillage de la connexion. Cet alésage 17 est ouvert en 23 sur la face intérieure de la partie d'ouverture de l'embase laissant apparaître la tige 19 de cadenas (figure 2) , en saillie de la face interne de l'embase, sensiblement de la moitié de son diamètre.The base 1 further comprises a cylindrical lateral base 15 disposed close to the opening 11 and parallel to the plane of the opening. This base 15 is therefore perpendicular to the axis of the connector. It has an internal bore 17 formed in the axis of the base and whose diameter is equal, with little play, to that of the rod 19 (cylindrical) of a head padlock 21 intended for locking the connection. This bore 17 is open at 23 on the inner face of the opening part of the base revealing the rod 19 of the padlock (FIG. 2), projecting from the internal face of the base, substantially half of its diameter.
Naturellement, ce socle 15 peut être une pièce rapportée fixée sur le corps de l'embase ou être formé par moulage en une seule pièce avec celui-ci comme dans le connecteur représenté. La fiche 3 comporte une gorge annulaire 25 formée sensiblement en partie médiane de son corps 7, perpendiculaire à son axe (axe du connecteur) et dont la profondeur correspond, à faible jeu près, au dépassement de la tige 19 de cadenas à l'intérieur de l'embase. Le positionnement de cette gorge 25 sur le corps de la fiche est déterminé pour qu'en position enfichée de la fiche dans l'embase, elle corresponde à la position précise de connexion du connecteur et qu'elle vienne au droit de l'alésage. A cette position, pour verrouiller la connexion, il suffit d'engager la tige de prise 19 du cadenas dans le socle 15, puis dans la gorge 25 de la fiche, jusqu'à la verrouiller dans la tête de cadenas.Naturally, this base 15 may be an attached part fixed to the body of the base or be formed by molding in one piece with it as in the connector shown. The plug 3 comprises an annular groove 25 formed substantially in the middle part of its body 7, perpendicular to its axis (axis of the connector) and the depth of which corresponds, with little play, to the protrusion of the rod 19 of the padlock inside of the base. The positioning of this groove 25 on the body of the plug is determined so that in the plugged-in position of the plug in the base, it corresponds to the precise position of connection of the connector and that it comes in line with the bore. At this position, to lock the connection, just to engage the socket rod 19 of the padlock in the base 15, then in the groove 25 of the plug, until it locks in the padlock head.
A ce moment, la connexion est parfaitement verrouillée. La liaison est rigide faisant intervenir la tige du cadenas directement en blocage de la fiche relativement à l'embase et non extérieurement à un crochet de verrouillage comme dans l'état de la technique mentionné.At this time, the connection is perfectly locked. The connection is rigid, involving the padlock rod directly in blocking the plug relative to the base and not externally to a locking hook as in the prior art mentioned.
La déconnexion est obtenue en ouvrant le cadenas et en ôtant la tige de prise du cadenas du socle pour libérer la liaison entre l'embase et la fiche. II est à noter à titre de variante que le cadenas pourrait être engagé par sa tige de chaque côté de l'embase, les parties de tige en U venant dans des encoches latérales du corps de l'embase et prendre dans une gorge de la fiche, formée à une position adéquate sur le corps de la fiche pour correspondre à la position de connexion, le socle pouvant être éliminé.Disconnection is obtained by opening the padlock and removing the padlock plug rod from the base to release the connection between the base and the plug. It should be noted as a variant that the padlock could be engaged by its rod on each side of the base, the U-shaped rod parts coming in lateral notches in the body of the base and take in a groove in the plug. , formed in a suitable position on the body of the plug to correspond to the connection position, the base can be removed.
Enfin, la forme du connecteur peut être variable et n'est pas limitée à la forme cylindrique à section circulaire telle que représentée. Finally, the shape of the connector can be variable and is not limited to the cylindrical shape with circular section as shown.
