Definitions

  • the present invention relates in general to electrical connectors designed to establish electrical connection between a towing vehicle and a trailer, and in particular relates to a socket for this type of connectors. More precisely, the invention relates to a socket according to the preamble of the main claim.
  • Sockets for electrical connection between a vehicle and a trailer comprise a plurality of female electrical contacts carried by a contact-bearing body integral with a casing made of plastic material which is designed to be applied at the rear of the tractor.
  • the sockets may be equipped with one or more microswitches and with one or more plate-type electrical contacts designed to perform auxiliary functions, such as disabling switching-on of the fog lights or disabling the anti-collision sensors when the trailer is hitched to the vehicle.
  • one or more switches are provided, which are carried by the contact-bearing body and are arranged in such a way as to switch their operating state according to whether the plug is plugged into the socket or not.
  • the purpose of the present invention is to provide a constructionally simple solution which enables the condition of coupling of the socket to a complementary plug to be detected and the operating state of a switch designed to carry out one of the aforesaid supplementary functions of the socket to be switched.
  • a socket having the characteristics that form the subject of the main claim.
  • the number 10 designates a socket for electrical connection between a vehicle and a trailer.
  • the socket 10 comprises a casing 12, made of plastic material, which defines a cylindrical seat 14 designed to receive a tubular portion of a plug (not illustrated).
  • the socket 10 comprises a lid 16 designed to close the cylindrical seat 14 when the socket 12 is not engaged with a complementary plug.
  • the lid 16 is hinged to the casing 12 and is associated to a spring 18 which tends to keep it in the closed position.
  • the casing 12 has an integral cylindrical wall 20 which defines the outer perimeter of the cavity 14.
  • small pins 22 which protrude radially inwards and constitute engagement portions designed to co-operate, in a way of itself known, with bayonet-coupling surfaces provided on the plug (not illustrated) that is complementary to the socket 10.
  • the socket 10 comprises a contact-bearing body 24, made of plastic material, which carries a plurality of female electrical contacts 26, each of which is housed within a respective longitudinal hole of the contact-bearing body 24.
  • the contact-bearing body 24 can be formed in an integral way with the casing 12, or else can consist of a separate element that can be fixed in various ways to the casing 12.
  • the contact-bearing body 24 has a cylindrical portion 28 that extends inside the seat 24.
  • a front seal element 30, made of compliant material, is applied to the contact-bearing body 24 at the base of the cylindrical portion 28. In a conventional way, a front portion of the plug that is complementary to the socket 12 is designed to compress the front seal element 30 axially in the condition of engagement between the plug and the socket.
  • annular space delimited, on the outside, by the cylindrical wall 20 of the casing 12 and, on the inside, by the outer cylindrical surface of the portion 28 of the contact-bearing body 24.
  • the said annular space is moreover delimited at the bottom by the top surface of the front seal element 30.
  • This annular space is designed to receive a tubular portion with bayonet-coupling means of the plug, there extending inside the plug the male contacts which are to be inserted into the female contacts 26.
  • the casing 12 has an outer wall 32, which forms a shell surrounding the cylindrical wall 20. As may be seen in Figures 2, 4 and 5, a gap 34 is defined between the outer wall 32 and the inner cylindrical wall 20 of the casing 12.
  • the microswitch 36 carried by the contact-bearing body 24.
  • the microswitch 36 comprises a shell 38 having a parallelepipedal shape, which contains the switch proper and from which there project electrical terminals 40 and an operating push-button 42, which can move in the direction indicated by the double-headed arrow 44 to switch the operating state of the switch.
  • the contact-bearing body 24 is equipped with integral retention elements 44 ( Figure 2), which define a seat within which the microswitch 36 is withheld.
  • the body 38 of the microswitch 36 may, for example, be inserted and blocked by snap-action into the seat formed by the retention elements 46.
  • the operating push-button 42 of the microswitch 36 co-operates with an operating member 48 having a first plane portion 50, a central portion 52, and a second plane portion 54 which extends from the side opposite to the first plane portion 50 with respect to the central portion 52.
  • the central portion 52 of the operating member 48 is inserted with play in a longitudinal groove 56 formed in the cylindrical wall 20 of the casing 12 ( Figures 4 and 5) in such a way that the operating member 48 can move in a direction parallel to the direction 44 of operation of the push-button 42 of the microswitch 36.
  • the first plane portion 50 of the operating member 48 rests on the push-button 42, whilst the second plane portion 54 rests above the front seal 30 made of compliant material.
  • the solution according to the present invention is particularly advantageous because it makes available one or more microswitches 36 in a radially external position with respect to the cylindrical wall 20 of the casing 12. In this position, the microswitch or the microswitches do not interfere with the electrical conductors connected to the contacts 26. Operation of the microswitch 36 (or of each microswitch 36) by means of a sliding operating member 48 renders detection of the presence of the plug in the plugged-in condition reliable.
  • the operating member 48 is simple and sturdy and does not present any parts that are subject to the risk of breakage or jamming.
  • a further advantage of the solution according to the invention lies in the fact that it is possible to make a series of sockets having a different number of switches 36 without having to envisage substantial modifications to the dies and moulds and to the production equipment.
  • solutions may be envisaged with one or more microswitches 36.
  • one or more switches with an elastic plate-type contact may be provided.
