Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a plug device for a standard electrical or optical connection cord provided with at least one of its ends of a plug having a body provided with a lock external mechanics.
  • the current trend is to overcome the constraints of these PLC vendors using a transfer network on the site open information, ie not dependent on a supplier automatons and that is a real world standard.
  • Ethernet which is a network already used in the world of office to connect computers and peripherals to each other. These, fulfills these conditions.
  • the connector used is called the RJ45.
  • This connection is constituted by an armored cord or not standard at the ends of which are mounted cards also standard having a body fitted with an external mechanical lock which can be retracted by a pressure action on the end of the lock. This lock is of course used for mechanical fixing when connecting with a base.
  • FIG. 1 there is shown the end of a cord standard equipped with a standard type plug of the RJ45 type or RJ11.
  • US-B-6257923 shows a plug device for an electrical connection cord.
  • cord 10 has included cord 10 and its body 14 generally molded on the cord 10.
  • a mechanical lock 16 which can be brought into non-active position by a tab 18 forming a control lever.
  • connection type RJ45 or RJ11 have the added advantage that they are today standard cords already calibrated with, at their ends, two RJ45 or RJ11 plugs overmoulded at the end of the cord.
  • a solution to adapt the RJ45 connectors to the requirements related to the industrial environment would consist in dissociating the cordon plugs and replace them with type plugs used in an industrial environment.
  • the plug adapter is shaped in such a way that it keeps the mechanical lock of the cord plug in the inactive position.
  • the connection between the plug and the corresponding base is made of classic way simply by the plug body.
  • said plug adapter insulation consists of two separate parts each defining a part of the internal profile adapted to receive said body of the cord plug, whereby the two pieces of said adapter can be put in place successively on the body of the cord plug.
  • each piece of the plug adapter has a relief forming a stop capable of cooperating with a part of the locking the cord plug when said lock is in the inactive position.
  • This characteristic is particularly interesting because axial connection of the plug of the cord and the plug adapter is obtained by a part of the plug which has standardized dimensions. The plug adapter can therefore be used regardless of the type or cord manufacturer.
  • Figures 2 to 8 illustrate the embodiment of the plug body for an electrical cord, preferably.
  • plug body 20 It comprises a plug body 20, a plug adapter 22 for the plug 10 of the cord, which is preferably constituted by two separate parts 24 and 26, a connecting piece 28 and a body of gland 30 equipped with a gland 32 of cylindrical shape.
  • the plug body 20 can have any shape and internally comprises means of axial and radial solidarity of the adapter plug 22. It further comprises means bayonet connection to a not shown base body.
  • the form body 20 further comprises at its rear part 20a tapping.
  • the connecting piece 28 has an anterior portion 28a and a posterior portion 28b provided with the inverted threads 34 and 36.
  • the gland body 30 comprises a tapping 38 and a posterior wall 40 pierced with an axial orifice of sufficient size to allow the passage of the plug 12 of the cord 10.
  • the connecting piece 28 and the glands 32 have an axial passage sufficient to allow the passage of the plug 12 of the cord 10.
  • the adapter 22 may be made of an insulating material optionally metallized with a nickel or cadmium alloy for electromagnetic protection.
  • the parts 24 and 26 forming the adapter 22 can be secured together by clipping members 42 and 44.
  • Each 24, 26 has internal profiles 24a, 24b, which, once both assembled parts, define a recess 46 for receiving the body of plug 12 surmounted by a groove 48 for receiving the lever of control 18 of the plug 12 when the latter is in the lowered position corresponding to the deactivation of the lock 16.
  • each piece 26 (24) has on its front face 26b (24b) an extension 50 in the form of beam that protrudes out of the anterior surface.
  • the extensions 50 are positioned in such a way that when the body 14 of the form 12 is introduced into the recess 46 of the adapter 22 and when the latch 16 is in the deactivated position, the ends 50a of the extensions 50 are in stop against locks 16. This is best shown in Figure 6.
  • the connecting piece 28, the gland 32 and the body of gland 30 are engaged in the cord 10 beyond the plug 12 as shown in Figure 2. Then, after having folded the lever 18 of the lock 16 of the plug 12, the piece 26 is mounted the adapter 22. Then, we mount the second piece 24 of the adapter on the plug body 14, which simultaneously causes the latching of the parts 24 and 26. The adapter 22 is then fixed on the body 14 of the plug 12, as shown in Figure 7.
  • the plug 12 and the adapter 22 are introduced into the plug body 20.
  • the outer wall 24c, 26c of the adapter has a boss and the inner wall 20b of the plug body 20 has four notches offset by 90 degrees.
  • the adapter 22 is thus immobilized in rotation in the plug body 20 and it can occupy one of four coding positions.
  • the piece of connection 28 is screwed onto the plug body 20, which immobilizes the translation adapter 22 relative to the plug body.
  • the body of the stuffing box 30 is screwed onto the thread 36 of the connecting piece, which causes compression of the gland 32 and the clamping thereof on the cord 10.
  • the card 12 is immobilized in translation relative to the adapter 22 because the ends 50a of the extensions 50 of the adapter 22 abut the latch 16 in position disabled.
  • the lock 16 has standardized standard dimensions. The device of plug according to the invention can therefore be used with all cords of which the cards include a lock that complies with this standard.
  • the connecting piece 28 is provided on its second end of an O-ring adapted to cooperate with said body of gland.
  • FIG. 9 an exploded perspective view is shown. the different components of the plug device for version optical, as well as the optical cord.
  • the optical cord 60 has its end which is mounted on a cord plug body 62 and secured thereto by a ferrule 64.
  • the cord plug body has on its outer side a latch mechanical 64 which will be described later in more detail.
  • the plug device itself first of all comprises a plug body 66 equipped on its outer face with a securing nut 67 with the conjugated optical connection element.
  • the plug device also includes a plug adapter 68, 70 for mounting in the plug body 66.
  • the plug device also includes a tubular connecting piece 72 whose first end is intended to be made integral with the plug body 66 and whose other end 72b is intended to be secured to a cable gland not shown on the figure.
  • the plug body 66 has, in its inner face 66a a shoulder 74 adapted to cooperate with a conjugate shoulder 76 formed in the outer face of the adapter 70, to immobilize it in translation forward.
  • the adapter 70 can be immobilized in the plug body 66 by means of in place of a mechanical locking system in translation 78.
  • the adapter 70 has a axial recess 80 whose contour allows the insertion of the end of the cord plug body 62a. This profile also defines a groove upper 80 to allow the passage of the mechanical lock 64 of optical cord plug body. More specifically, as shown in 10A, the end of the latch 64 has a projection 64a which can cooperate with a shoulder 82 formed in the axial passage 80 of the adapter. The cooperation of the projection 64a and the shoulder 82 allows securing the plug body 62 of the cord with the adapter. It is necessary add that the shoulder 82 defines a profile such that the lock 64 is kept in its deactivated position.
  • the connecting piece 72 has, at its first end 72a, a tapping adapted to cooperate with a thread 86 formed at the end rear of the plug body 66.
  • the second end 72b of the workpiece link 72 defines a housing 88 of increased diameter and a shoulder 90 intended to receive a gland 92.
  • This gland 92 at rest, as shown in FIG. 10A, has an axial passage 94 allowing the free-passage of the plug body 62 of the optical cord.
  • the the plug device comprises, finally, a clamping nut 96 whose tapping 98 can cooperate with an external thread 100 provided for the end 72b of the connecting piece 72.
