Definitions

  • the invention relates to electrical connection devices which are used to electrically connect two electrical or electronic devices, for example a portable telephone apparatus to a battery charger or to a headset.
  • the US5704.792 discloses a rotatable spring connector adapted to be connected to the rotating axles of vehicles, which have relatively high rotational speeds.
  • the US5,552,122 discloses a connector for powering an electrical apparatus, for example a lamp, which is connected to a pair of contacts, and another pair of contacts is connected to a power outlet, the connector allows the power supply of the apparatus even when it is turned in a desired direction.
  • the US 4,590,337 describes a connector for use with a spiral phone cord to prevent the cord from twisting and knotting during use.
  • jack devices which are in the form of a sheath, usually circular section, in the opening of which is engaged a pin circular section.
  • the sleeve is carried by the device while the pin is the end of a multi-conductor cable.
  • the sheath and the pin each have as many conductive parts in the longitudinal direction separated by insulating parts, the corresponding conductive parts of the sheath and the pin cooperating to make the electrical contact therebetween.
  • An object of the present invention is therefore to provide a device for electrical connection between a cable and an electrical / electronic device which does not have the drawbacks of the electrical connection devices of the prior art, in particular of the "jack" type listed below. above.
  • This object is achieved by producing a two-part electrical connection device, one part of which has conductive circular tracks electrically connected to conductors to be connected while the other part has elastic contacts each cooperating with a conductive circular track and electrically connected to conductors to be connected, the two parts of the electrical connection device being assembled by an elastic snap which maintains a pressure between each circular conductive track and the corresponding elastic contact.
  • the invention relates more particularly to a fixed element for the electrical connection of an electronic device for connecting at least one electrical conductor of the electronic device to a movable electrical connection element disposed outside the electronic device, characterized in that it comprises, on the outside of the electronic device, at least one conductive circular track arranged on a front face, said conductive circular track being connected, on the inner side of the electronic apparatus, to a rear face to said electrical conductor of the electronic apparatus via an electrical conductor disposed in a bore passing through the fixed element .
  • the conductor passing through the fixed element is electrically connected to a resilient contact designed to cooperate with a fixed electrical terminal of the electronic apparatus comprising said electrical conductor of the electronic apparatus.
  • the resilient contact of the fixed member has a first end which is movable to cooperate with said fixed terminal of the electronic apparatus and a second end which is fixed and integral with the fixed member.
  • the fixed element further comprises at least one electrical conductor disposed on the outer surface of said fixed element for electrically connecting at least one circular portion of the front face to the rear face of the fixed element.
  • the electrical conductor disposed on the outer surface is connected to a resilient contact disposed on the rear face of the fixed member.
  • the electrical conductor disposed on the outer surface of the fixed member is in the form of a conductive layer deposited on all or part of the outer surface.
  • the front face of the fixed element comprises assembly means, such as a groove, provided to cooperate with the movable electrical connection element.

  • These mounting means comprise an elastic ring designed to snap elastically onto a groove of the front face of the fixed element.
  • the elastic ring has longitudinal slots to increase the elasticity.
  • the elastic ring is made of conductive material, this conductive material cooperating with the electrical conductors disposed on the outer surface of the fixed element, especially when these conductors are in the form of conductive layers covering all or part of the outer surface of the fixed element .
  • the invention also relates to an electrical connection device characterized in that it comprises a fixed element and a movable element as defined above, the movable element snapping on the front face of the fixed element.
  • the invention also relates to an electronic apparatus comprising a fixed element as defined above.
  • An electrical connection device 10 according to the invention comprises two distinct parts or elements 12 and 14 which are assembled by snap-fastening of elastic type for example.
  • Part 12 which is connected to a cable with n conductors (not shown) comprises n resilient contacts 16 which are housed in a socket 18 in the form of elbow or straight.
  • the plug 18 is made of insulating material, for example rigid plastic.
  • One end 20 of each electrical contact 18 protrudes from one side 26 of the elbow to be connected to one conductor of the cable while the other end 22 is bent U-shaped to form an elastic contact 24 which emerges on the other side 28 of the elbow with respect to a bottom 30.
  • the side 28 of the elbow extends beyond the bottom 30 and the contacts 24 in the form of a ring 32 of circular section whose elastic end 34 snaps into a circular groove 36 of the portion 14.
  • This ring 32 is preferably made of electrically conductive metal and may have three slots 60 on its outer periphery, which gives it a better elasticity for snapping on the part 14. The fact that this ring 32 is conductive is put to use to detect the electrical connection between the two parts of the connection device.
  • Part 14 which is connected to certain electronic circuits of the apparatus to be connected to the cable, has a generally cylindrical shape of revolution having circular grooves 36 and 38.
  • Each circular track 62, 64 and 66 is respectively associated with a through bore 72, 74 and 76 which serves to pass a connecting conductor between a track and one of the three output electrical contacts 82, 84 and 86 to the electronic circuits.
  • This connecting conductor between the circular track 62, 64 or 66 and the corresponding contact 82, 84 and 86 is made, for example, in the form of a conductive layer lining the walls of the corresponding bore.
  • Each bore opens on one side on a circular conductive track and, on the other side, on a conductive layer 92 for the bore 72, 94 for the bore 74 and 96 for the bore 76.
  • Each circular conductive track is isolated from an adjacent circular track by a circular insulating area 42a, 42b, 42c corresponding to the absence of conductive deposit. It is the same conductive layers 92, 94 and 96 which are separated from each other by insulating areas 60.
  • the two other electrical contacts 88 and 90 intended to be connected to the electronic circuits and arranged on either side of the central contacts 82, 84 and 86, are electrically connected respectively to a conductive layer 100 and 102 covering the outer surface of the portion 14, including the grooves 34 and 38.
  • These conductive layers 100 and 102 are isolated electrically from each other by a zone 104 without conductive deposition, this zone 104 delimiting each layer 100 and 102 at one half of the external surface, ending on one side with the larger circular insulating zone 42c and, on the other side, to the insulating zone 60b and 60a.
  • Part 14 in particular the electrical contacts 82 to 90, is provided to cooperate with the support 50 of the electronic circuits and, more specifically, with the output terminals of these electronic circuits.
  • the contacts 82 to 90 are arranged on a wafer 52 which must be arranged parallel to the support 50, the wafer extending laterally, the lateral extensions 54 being embedded in cutouts 56 of the walls of the housing 58 containing the circuits electronic arranged on the support 50.
  • portion 14 is held on the housing by a cutout 42 cooperating with the groove 38.
