Definitions

  • the invention relates to an electrical connector having the features of Preamble of claim 1.
  • the invention is based on the object, a connector of the above type to simplify structurally. This task is done by Claim 1 solved.
  • the inventive design of the locking lever is a secure engagement of the locking leg when closing the connector allows. Due to the resilient design tolerances be compensated between plug-in part and base part of the connector. in the finished latched state of the locking lever exercises the bearing leg one Spring force on the construction. This will cause accidental opening of the Locking lever prevents. Due to the one-piece, integral design of the Locking lever is achieved a simplification in terms of construction.
  • a locking bracket for an electrical connector 1 is shown.
  • the locking bracket 2 is preferably constructed symmetrically and consists of two locking levers arranged essentially parallel to one another 3, which are interconnected by a transverse yoke 4.
  • the locking lever 3 is a one-piece, integral component, preferably is designed plate-shaped. It comprises a bearing leg 5 and a Locking leg 6.
  • the bearing leg 5 is designed such that it has two, preferably flap-shaped, Bearing arms 7, 8 trains.
  • the bearing arms 7, 8, for example by slitting the bearing leg 5 or by free cutting or a Other working out of a bearing arm or both bearing arms of the Bearing leg 5 are formed.
  • the bearing leg can, for example, cutting, milling or punching be considered.
  • Part of the bearing leg 5 serves as a second bearing arm 7.
  • the out of the bearing leg 5 trained bearing arms 7, 8 are substantially in one plane.
  • the locking lever 3 is pivotable on a base part 9 of the connector 1 stored.
  • the bearing arms 7, 8 form a hinge for supporting the Locking lever 3 on a bearing pin 10 on the base part 9 of the connector 1.
  • Fig.2 and Fig.3 embrace the bearing arms 7, 8th the journal 10 at least partially.
  • 2 shows a base part 9 of a connector 1 with two locking levers 3 in the open position. In this Position are the bearing arms 7, 8 close to the journal 10 and allow a firm grip of the locking lever 3 on the journal 10.
  • the Bearing arms 7, 8 are tolerated for receiving the journal 10.
  • Of the Radius of the Ausmulditch 11 corresponds preferably to the diameter of the journal 10.
  • a plug-in part 12 in the insertion direction 13 is placed on the base part 9, wherein between the two parts elastic seal (not shown) rests. Then the at the Base part 9 mounted locking lever 3 locked with the male part 12. At the Closing the snap closure, the locking lever 3 in a plane pivoted, which is approximately parallel to the central longitudinal axis of the connector. 1 is aligned.
  • the locking leg 6 is formed such that when closing the latching closure a locking pin 14 on Plug-in part of the connector engages behind.
  • the locking lever shown on the right in Figure 3 3 illustrates a time during the latching of the locking leg 6, where the lock is almost closed.
  • a bearing arm of the bearing leg 5 of the locking lever 3 is as a spring arm. 8 educated.
  • the spring arm 8 is designed such that the locking lever 3 for locking and unlatching of the locking leg 6 against the spring force the spring arm 8 relative to the base part 9 in the direction of the male part 12th can be moved. This will be a very safe closing and opening the lock allows.
  • the strength of the spring action of the spring arm 8 can through various design measures, such as a change the strength of the Federarmfußes be adjusted. Due to the deflection of the Spring arm 8 during the displacement of the locking lever 3 in the direction of the Plug-in part 12 is the encircling of the bearing pin 10 by the bearing arms 7, the eighth changed so that now only the spring arm 8 rests on the bearing pin 10.
  • the bearing pin 10 and the bearing arm 7 on the one hand and the spring arm On the other hand formed joint thus acts as a rotary sliding joint.
  • the locking lever 3 has another, from the bearing leg 5 trained stop arm 15, preferably in the same way and How the bearing arms 7, 8 is formed from the bearing leg 5.
  • this is designed so that it has a stop for the Spring arm 8 forms to the spring travel at a deflection of the spring arm 8 limit. The risk of breaking or overstretching of the spring arm 8 by an oversized deflection is thereby reduced.
  • the locking lever 3 shown on the left in Figure 3 shows a completely closed Locking.
  • the locking leg 6 of the locking lever 3 by engaging behind the locking pin 14 with the male part 12 locked.
  • the principle of the locking lever 3 is based on that now between the locking leg 6 and the locking pin 14 on the one hand and between the spring arm 8 and the bearing pin 10 on the other hand, a spring pressure system exists, which secures the lock and a contact pressure on the elastic seal (not shown) between the base part 9 and plug-in part 12 exerts.
  • the locking leg 6 for engaging behind the locking pin 14 tolerated.
  • the radius of the Ausmuldung 16 corresponds preferably the diameter of the locking pin 14.
  • Journal 10 and locking pin 14 are in terms of their training and Arrangement on the base part 9 and plug-in part 12 of the connector 1 identical. Therefore can the locking lever 3 optionally also on the locking pin 14th be storable. In this case, the bearing pin 10 assumes the function of Locking pin. This makes it possible to use different plug-in parts 12 stuck on one and the same base part 9. Due to the resilient design of the locking lever 3, which allow a tolerance compensation, are under Circumstances also basic parts and plug-in parts from different manufacturers together combined.
  • At least one locking lever 3 is used. Through the connection of a plurality of locking levers 3 to lock brackets 2 as shown in Fig. 1-3 are shown, the handling is further simplified. Lock lever 3 and Locking bracket 2 can also be combined with other fastening means become.
  • the locking lever 3 is preferably made of a material with resilient Properties.
  • the use of spring steel comes in Consideration. But also the use of other materials, such as Plastics, is possible. If a locking bracket 2 is used, then this can be made entirely of such a material.
  • the integral design of the locking lever 3 it is not necessary additional components, such as springs or the like, for a secure locking and unlatching provided. All functions of the locking lever 3 are fulfilled by a single integral component. This can reduce the manufacturing costs be lowered by electrical connectors 1.
  • a locking lever 3 as also a whole locking bracket 2 by simple processing methods as forming techniques, such as bending forming, from a single preferably plate-shaped blank, for example, a sheet metal forming part manufacture, whereby the manufacturing cost can be further reduced.
  • a handle 17 be attached.
  • This can for example be integral with the locking lever Be connected 3 or consist of an additional component, the the locking lever 3 is mounted.
  • two locking levers 3 are connected to a locking bracket 2 are preferably both the two locking lever 3 and the transverse yoke 4, which is the locking lever 3 at the end facing away from the bearing leg 5 with each other connects, made of a one-piece, integral component.
  • the cross yoke 4 but can also consist of another component, with the locking levers 3 is connected.
  • the transverse yoke 4 can continue to be designed in this way be that it takes over the function of a handle.
  • the handle 17 can be attached as an additional component to the cross yoke 4.
  • the handling can be the attachment of another component, for example a coating of a plastic material may be provided.
  • the invention relates to an electrical connector 1 with at least one on a base part 9 of the connector 1 mounted locking lever 3, the as a one-piece, integral component is designed such that a spring arm 8 pronounced part of the bearing leg 5 of the locking lever 3 in Closed position allows a spring pressure system, which ensures a secure latching the locking leg 6 of the locking lever 3 with the male part 12 of the Connector 1 allows.
