Definitions

  • the invention relates to an insulating body for installation in a (gas) generator as Part of a connector system with generator and plug for inflatable Restraint systems in motor vehicles.
  • Insulating body of this type are for example from the German Offenlegungsschriften 199 35 969 and 199 35 970 known.
  • the insulator serve, among other things, the recording a short-circuit spring, which is in two parts according to DE 199 35 970 A1 and according to DE 199 35 969 A1 complicated to be positioned in the insulating body.
  • finger-safe also "scoopproof” called
  • a first starting point for a constructive solution proposal is the following: Usually, the connector opposite, resilient locking tongues are present in the locking position relative to the box in corresponding recesses of the Compress generator housing. In this area, the socket housing must therefore already a have corresponding opening; to allow the compression of the locking lugs. Immediately behind these locking lugs are usually displaceable in the insertion direction Secondary locks (pins or rails) are provided to prevent the Locking lugs can move out of the locking openings uncontrolled again.
  • the secondary lock according to DE 195 13 358 C1 -im horizontal section considered a U-shape, wherein the cancellation of the short-circuit function by the Base legs done.
  • a common short-circuit spring is on corresponding portions of adjacent contact pins and is when inserted pushed away the secondary latch.
  • the direction of movement of the short-circuit spring is provided set according to the direction of movement of the locking arms, because in this direction the needed space already exists.
  • the invention then relates to an insulating body for Installation in a generator as part of a connector system with generator and Plug for inflatable restraint systems in motor vehicles according to the Claim 1
  • the short-circuit spring can be in one piece. She can at least two in the base leg Have recesses which engage around the contact pins at a distance. In this way the short-circuit spring runs on the bottom side (with its base leg) almost to the Contact pins around, the basic leg ultimately only the packaging in the Insulator serves.
  • the actual short-circuit function take over each other directed, conductively connected to the base leg contact tongues, for example can be cut out of the material of the U-legs.
  • the arrangement of the short-circuit spring can then be such that the U-legs substantially run parallel to the secondary locking elements of the associated connector and the Contact tongues are aligned so that they are separated from the secondary locking elements be taken when they are led to the final position.
  • the Pressed tongues in the same direction in which the latching arms move when snap it into the corresponding recesses of the can.
  • the insulating body which is used in an associated gas generator can For example, have a more or less round cross-sectional area, with an outer diameter substantially equal to the distance of the outer surfaces of corresponds to opposite latching arms of the plug. Also from this it becomes clear that with the described structure no broadening of the generator is necessary.
  • the insulating body in the lower Face has an opening which is slightly smaller (for example, shorter) than the base leg the short-circuit spring is. In this way, the shorting spring can over the opening "levered” and then aligned in the desired position in the insulating body become.
  • the following description of the figures shows this by way of example.
  • the opening in the lower end face in their outer dimensions the Be adjusted outside dimensions of the base leg of the short-circuit spring.
  • the Base leg of the short spring for example, more or less rectangular, so can also the recess be rectangular.
  • the short-circuit spring may have openings or cutouts in its base leg, through which the contact pins (spaced) are guided.
  • the Base leg for example meandering to lead and so opposite lateral To create openings for the contact pin.
  • the insulating body can be pre-assembled with the short-circuit spring. It can the Short-circuit spring on appropriate approaches, but possibly also (alone) due a certain bias, be assembled in the insulating body.
  • the insulator itself can be glued into an associated gas generator.
  • the spring may be constructed as a combined bending and / or torsion spring.
  • a can (a gas generator) 10 and the lower part of a associated plug 12 can be seen, which together form a connector system.
  • the Plug 12 is formed in the usual way with contact springs 14.1, 14.2, with associated contact pins 16.1, 16.2 to be contacted, which is part of the Generators 10 are.
  • a pot-like receptacle of the generator 10 is the in Figs. 3, 4 in perspective view illustrated insulating body 30th
  • Figures 1-4 show that the substantially circular lower End face 30u and circular upper end face 30o formed insulating one Diameter, which is substantially the distance of the outer surfaces of the latching arms 18.1, 18.2 (when mated).
  • the insulating body 30 include two extending in the insertion direction S guides 32.1, Provided 32.2, which serve to receive the contact pin 16.1, 16.2.
  • nubs 36n At the transition region between base legs 36b and U-legs 36u1, 36u2 to recognize nubs 36n on the outside. With these nubs 36n is the short-circuit spring 36th on a bottom-side circumferential step 30s of the insulating body 30. It runs the Base leg 36b substantially parallel to the end face 30u of the insulating body 30 and the U-legs 36u1, 36u2 substantially parallel to the contact pins 16.1, 16.2 or in plug-in direction S.
  • FIG. 6 shows the sleeve-like guide means 40.1, 40.2 for the contact springs 14.1, 14.2 and -schematisch- next to another, sleeve-like coding element 42, which in a corresponding recess 44 in the insulating body 30 can be used to an exact Alignment of connector 12 and 10 can be achieved.
  • coding elements can be next to or on the opposite side of the Guide means 40.1, 40.2 be arranged.
  • the coding element (s) generally run essentially axially, that is in the insertion direction. They can consist of solid material or Be hollow body. They can be designed in the manner of webs, wings or the like.
  • the Adjusting element according to Fig. 6 has an involute on average.
  • One (general) asymmetrical design of the individual coding elements ensures that Corresponding parts of the connector are not inserted incorrectly.
  • the guide means 40.1, 40.2 are rounded at the front (at the free end) at 40.3, 40.4. Together, the juxtaposed guide means 40.1, 40.2 an arrow-like or dome-like geometry at their free ends 40.3, 40.4 result.
