Abstract

Die Erfindung betrifft eine Verbindungsanordnung für Flachbandkabel F oder flexible gedruckte Leiterplatten mit mindestens einem Leiter. Sie umfasst ein Gehäuse 1, in dem einzelne Anschlusselemente 17 in Aufnahmeräumen 9 nebeneinander angeordnet sind. Im Bereich der den Aufnahmekammern 9 vorgeschalteten Aufnahmekanäle 11 sind in einer Quernut 12 die Kontaktflächen 23, 24 zweier sich gegenüberstehender Kontaktelemente 21, 22 eines zugehörigen Anschlusselementes 17 freiliegend angeordnet. In die Quernut 12 taucht ein Anpresselement 26 unterstützt vom Deckel 32 ein, welches je Anschlusselement 17 zwei V-förmig zueinander stehende und ein Paar bildende Federschenkel 27, 28 besitzt, die unter Zwischenschaltung des Flachbandkabels F zwischen die Kontaktelemente 21, 22 eintreten und diese parallel zur Längsachse beaufschlagen.

The invention relates to a connection arrangement for ribbon cable F or flexible printed circuit boards with at least one conductor. It comprises a housing 1 in which individual connection elements 17 are arranged next to one another in receiving spaces 9. In the region of the receiving channels 11 connected upstream of the receiving chambers 9, the contact surfaces 23, 24 of two opposing contact elements 21, 22 of an associated connecting element 17 are exposed in a transverse groove 12. In the transverse groove 12, a pressing element 26 is supported by the cover 32, which has two V-shaped spring legs 27, 28 for each connection element 17, which form a pair and which occur with the interposition of the flat cable F between the contact elements 21, 22 and these parallel to the longitudinal axis.
