FIG 2 zeigt eine erfindungsgemäße Steckereinheit in flächiger Ausführung mit einer ersten, mit einer ersten Kontaktbahn 2 zu bestückenden, Kontaktbahnebene in der vorderen Seitenfläche und mit einer zweiten, mit einer zweiten Kontaktbahn 3 zu bestückenden, Kontaktbahnebene in der hinteren Seitenfläche bei jeweils in einem ersten Montageschritt in Einlegerichtung E1 für die erste Kontaktbahn 2 bzw. in Einlegerichtung E2 für die zweite Kontaktbahn 3 zugeführten Kontaktbahnen.2 shows a plug-in unit according to the invention in planar design with a first, with a first contact track 2 to be fitted, contact surface in the front side surface and with a second, to be fitted with a second contact path 3, contact plane in the rear side surface in each case in a first assembly step in the insertion direction E1 for the first contact track 2 or in the insertion direction E2 for the second contact track 3 supplied contact tracks.

Die Kontaktbahnen 2;3 werden dabei in dem ersten Montageschritt in Führungsaufnahmen 1.1;1.2 des Isolationskörpers 1, von denen in FIG 1 nur die Führungsaufnahmen 1.1 der ersten Kontaktbahnebene zum Teil ersichtlich sind, derart gemäß FIG 3,4 eingelegt, dass sie - wie anhand der ersten Kontaktbahn in FIG 3-9 erläutert - in Gegeneinlegerichtung an dem Isolationskörper 1 zur Anlage kommen und quer zur Einlegerichtung in ihre Montageendstellung gemäß FIG 5,6 führbar sind; FIG 7,8 zeigen einen, im folgenden noch näher erläuterten, Zwischenmontageschritt.The contact tracks 2, 3 are in the first assembly step in guide receptacles 1.1, 1.2 of the insulating body 1, of which only the guide receptacles 1.1 of the first contact plane are partially visible in Figure 1, inserted according to FIG 3.4, that they - as based the first contact track illustrated in FIG 3-9 - come in abutment against the insulating body 1 to the plant and transverse to the loading direction in their final assembly position according to FIG 5,6 are feasible; FIGS. 7, 8 show an intermediate assembly step, which will be explained in more detail below.

Die Kontaktbahnen 2;3 sind in vorteilhafter Weise in den Isolationskörper 1 derart eingelegt, dass sie in Längsverschieberichtung aus dem Isolationskörper 1 mit freien Enden hervorstehen und auf einfache Weise mit einer von außen ansetzbaren Druckausübung D ungehindert in ihre Montageendstellung längsverschieblich sind. Nach einer Ausgestaltung der Erfindung sind die Kontaktbahnen 2;3 im Bereich der endseitigen Kontaktzungen 2.1;2.2;3.1;3.2 im Sinne einer toleranzausgleichenden sicheren Kontaktgabe mit den Kontaktstiften 8.1;8.2 der Bürstenhalterung 8 leicht federnd und im übrigen Bereich formschlüssig passend in den Führungsaufnahmen 1.1;1.2 des Isolationskörpers 1 gehalten.The contact tracks 2, 3 are inserted in an advantageous manner in the insulating body 1 such that they protrude in the longitudinal displacement direction of the insulating body 1 with free ends and are easily longitudinally displaceable with an externally attachable Druckausübung D unhindered in their final assembly position. According to one embodiment of the invention, the contact tracks 2, 3 in the region of the end-side contact tongues 2.1, 2.2, 3.1, 3.2 in the sense of a tolerance-compensating secure contact with the contact pins 8.1 8.2 of the brush holder 8 slightly resilient and in the remaining area form-fitting fit in the guide seats 1.1 1.2 of the insulating body 1 held.

Bei ihrer Längsverschiebung werden die Kontaktbahnen 2,3 nach einer Ausgestaltung der Erfindung im Sinne einer formschlüssigen Lagefixierung von seitlich von dem Isolationskörper vorstehenden, mit dem Isolationskörper 1 verbundenen Anlagestegen 1.3;1.4 übergriffen.In their longitudinal displacement, the contact tracks are 2.3 overlaid according to an embodiment of the invention in the sense of a positive positional fixation of laterally projecting from the insulation body, connected to the insulating body 1 contact webs 1.3;

Bei Erreichen der Montageendstellung ist eine weitere Längsverschiebung in Verschieberichtung zweckmäßigerweise durch einen Endanschlag 1.6 der entsprechend ausgebildeten Führungsaufnahmen 1.1;1.2 begrenzt. Eine Positionsfixierung in Gegenverschieberichtung nach Erreichen der Montageendstellung der Kontaktbahnen 2;3 erfolgt nach einer in FIG 9 verdeutlichten Ausgestaltung der Erfindung durch einen einzigen Raststeg 1.5, der beim Längsverschieben der ersten Kontaktbahn 2 zunächst in die zweite Kontaktbahnebene elastisch auslenkbar ist und bei Erreichen der Montageendstellung der ersten Kontaktbahn 2 im Sinne der Fixierung hinter eine korrespondierende Raststeganlage 2.4 der ersten Kontaktbahn 2 einschnappt bzw. der beim anschließenden Längseinschieben der zweiten Kontaktbahn 3 zunächst in die zweite Kontaktbahnebene elastisch auslenkbar ist und bei Erreichen der Montageendstellung der zweiten Kontaktbahn 3 zurückschnappt und dieser Position nicht nur gegen die korrespondierende Raststeganlage der ersten Kontaktbahn 2 sondern auch der zweiten Kontaktbahn 3 einschnappt und somit auch diese in Gegenverschieberichtung formschlüssig sichert; zumindest im Bereich des elastisch auslenkbaren einzigen Raststeges 1.5 sind die erste Kontaktbahn und die zweite Kontaktbahn derart zueinander höhenversetzt ausgebildet, dass eine freie Auslenkung des Raststeges in die jeweilige eine Kontaktbahnebene durch die Kontaktbahn der anderen Kontaktbahnebene gewährleistet ist.Upon reaching the final assembly position, a further longitudinal displacement in the direction of displacement is expediently limited by an end stop 1.6 of the correspondingly formed guide receptacles 1.1, 1.2. A position fixation in Gegenverschieberichtung after reaching the final assembly position of the contact tracks 2, 3 takes place according to a clarified in FIG 9 embodiment of the invention by a single latching web 1.5, which is initially elastically deflected in the second contact plane plane during longitudinal displacement of the first contact track 2 and upon reaching the final assembly position of first contact track 2 in the sense of fixation behind a corresponding locking web system 2.4 of the first contact track 2 snaps or the first longitudinal insertion of the second contact track 3 in the second contact plane is elastically deflectable and snaps back on reaching the final assembly position of the second contact track 3 and this position not only against the corresponding latching ridge system of the first contact track 2 but also the second contact track 3 snaps in and thus this also secures form-fitting manner in the counter-shift direction; at least in the region of the elastically deflectable single latching web 1.5, the first contact track and the second contact track are offset in height from one another such that a free deflection of the latching web is ensured in the respective one contact plane by the contact path of the other contact track plane.

In vorteilhafter Weise sind die Anlagestege ebenso wie der Raststeg als auch die Führungsaufnahmen einstückiger Bestandteil des, insbesondere aus Kunststoff spritzgegossenen Isolationskörpers. Wie aus den Schnittbildern ersichtlich, sind zur weiteren Fertigungsvereinfachung die vorgenannten Bauteile derart über die Seitenflächen des Ioslationskörpers verteilt, dass sie beim Spritzgießen des Isolationskörpers mit nur quer zu den Kontaktbahnebenen in Richtung F1 bzw. F2 gemäß FIG 10 ziehbaren Spritzformteilen herstellbar sind; dazu ist es insbesondere notwendig, dass jeweils der einen Kontaktebene zugeordnete Bauteile rückseitig für entsprechende Spritzformteile von der anderen Kontaktbahnebene durch entsprechende Öffnungen in dem Isolationskörper zugänglich sind.Advantageously, the contact webs as well as the detent web and the guide receptacles integral part of, in particular injection-molded plastic insulator. As can be seen from the sectional images, the aforementioned components are distributed over the side surfaces of the Ioslationskörpers so that they can be produced during injection molding of the insulating body with only transverse to the contact track planes in the direction of F1 or F2 according to FIG 10 drawable injection moldings for further manufacturing simplification; For this purpose, it is particularly necessary that in each case the components associated with one contact plane are accessible to the back for corresponding injection-molded parts from the other contact-rail plane through corresponding openings in the insulation body.
