Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a connection device an electronic box.
  • Electronic boxes used in the field are generally mounted in cabinets, and are juxtaposed to each other in the same row, several rows can be stacked. These boxes have a general shape rectangular, and each have one or more pins connection in order to make their connection with conductive cables connected to different types of devices such as clock systems, relays, or signal processing devices.
  • Connection pins connected to the electronic card contained in each electronic box are flat pins orientation parallel to the longitudinal assembly face of the housing.
  • connection to conductive cables is carried out via modules connection, each fixed on the longitudinal assembly face of a housing.
  • a connection module contains connection parts to horizontal flat pins, as well as a cable fixing device conductors which are brought into contact with the connection parts above.
  • Conductive cables are generally introduced into the connection module either by the upper face thereof or by a longitudinal face thereof.
  • connection module is fixed on the longitudinal face assembly of a housing by an irreversible latching device, the approach of the module vis-à-vis the housing being carried out by displacement transverse to this face.
  • an irreversible latching device When it is necessary to intervene on a case, for example to change an electronic card, it is necessary to dismantle the connections between the conductor cables and the connection. After working on the housing, the conductor cables. It follows from the above that this operation is a long, costly operation with risk of errors during wiring.
  • the object of the invention is to provide a connection device an electronic box comprising a connection module which can be wired before its installation on the housing, and can be dismantled in a simple and fast way of the case, without deterioration, and without requiring disassembly of the conducting cables.
  • the object of the invention is therefore to provide a device in which a connection module can be disassembled and reassembled instantly, without detaching the cables conductors.
  • a connection module can be pre-equipped with conductive cables.
  • a transversal approach to the module should be carried out towards the housing, the module being offset longitudinally by report to the case, so that the lugs and returns respectively of the case and the module interpenetrate.
  • the pins vertical of the housing penetrate into the slots of the module, the slots being arranged so that no electrical contact takes place at this stage of the movement.
  • the operator moves the module longitudinally, in order to carry out the electrical contact then the locking which is obtained by engagement of the deformable tongue belonging to the module in the recess in the longitudinal assembly face of the housing.
  • the module restraint relative to the housing is achieved by cooperation between the lugs of the housing and module returns, while locking is accomplished by cooperation between the tab of the module and the corresponding recess of the housing.
  • this elastic tongue in a direction of outlet out of the recess in which it is housed, allows, by longitudinal translation followed by a transverse movement, to disassemble the module relative to the housing.
  • This disassembly is carried out instantly and provides access to the interior of the housing. It is remarkable to note that this disassembly is carried out without disconnecting the conductive cables from the module.
  • An intervention on a box can therefore be carried out in a way simple and very fast since avoiding all subsequent operations of wiring, the module which has been separated from the housing with the cables which are connected that can be immediately reassembled on the housing after intervention on the latter, or replacement thereof.
  • the lengths respective lugs of the housing and recesses of the module returns are determined to form a key and not allow the mounting in one direction of the module on the housing.
  • connection module comprises, in its face adjacent to its face for assembly with the housing, a recess giving access to the elastic locking tab to activate it using a tool.
  • a connection module comprises a body inside which are mounted a number of drawers each of which contains a piece of connection to a flat pin of the housing and at least one fixing part a conductive cable.
  • Each drawer is in the form of a shaped part general parallelepiped in synthetic material of which one of the faces side is open and the interior contains partitions projecting from the opposite side face used to support and maintain the workpiece connection in the shape of a lyre and of the cable fixing part (s) conductors.
  • the drawer has, on its two faces adjacent to the open face, two snap-on tabs intended to enter two recesses formed in the walls opposite the module.
  • the part of electrical connection with a conductive cable consists of a pin metal in the form of a loop engaged on a stud of the protruding drawer from the face thereof opposite the open face.
  • the pin ensuring the retention of at least one cable
  • the pin is a double pin obtained at from the same metal blade split along its length except in one connection zone, the two parts, arranged on either side of the slot, each comprising an opening for the passage of a cable and each pin part can be operated independently of the other part to fix a cable.
  • Figure 1 is a perspective view of an electronic box and a connection module.
  • Figure 2 is an exploded perspective view of a module connection and component parts of a drawer associated with this module.
  • Figure 3 is a longitudinal sectional view on a scale enlarged showing a drawer mounted inside a module connection.
  • Figure 4 is a top view of an alternative embodiment of module of Figures 1 to 3.
  • Figure 5 is a perspective view on an enlarged scale of a double pin for securing in the module two cables conductors.
  • Figure 1 shows a housing 2 intended to contain at least an electronic card, having a generally parallelepiped shape, delimited in particular by two side walls 3, a front face 4, a bottom 5 and a longitudinal assembly face 6. From the longitudinal face assembly protrude, near the bottom edge of the housing, three 7 conductive flat pins connected to the printed circuit.
  • the longitudinal assembly face of the housing is delimited laterally by two parallel recesses 8, partially closed at level of the longitudinal assembly face by two lugs 9.
  • Figure 1 also shows a connection module designated by the general reference 12.
  • the assembly face 13 of the module on the housing has slots 14 oriented longitudinally, each intended to receive a flat pin 7 protruding from the housing, with possibility of moving each flat spindle 7 inside the corresponding slot 14 during a longitudinal displacement of the module by report to the housing.
  • the assembly face 13 of the module 12 is delimited laterally and over part of its length by two parallel sides 15 which protrude from the front and each have a return 16 towards the interior, each return 16 having a central recess 17 allowing, in a determined longitudinal position of the module by compared to the housing 2, to carry out the passage of the lugs 9 of the housing then the retention of these in the locking position, the pins 9 then being behind returns 16.
  • the assembly face 13 of the module 12 comprises, near from its upper end, an elastic tongue 18 intended to come engage in the recess 10 in the housing 2, in the locked position.
  • This tongue 18 is accessible by a recess 19 opening into the upper face of module 12.
  • three openings 22 are provided for engaging conductors electrical, and three openings 23 allowing the actuation of the means retaining these conductors.
  • the repository used above takes into account the position of the module on the drawing, but does not correspond necessarily in the position of use.
  • This mounting is reversible because it suffices, for example using a screwdriver, tilt the elastic tongue 18 to release it from the recess 10, before moving the module 12 longitudinally to allow the returns 16 to escape the pins 9 of the housing, and to shoot transversely the module, to allow access to the housing. It should be noted that this operation is carried out without dismantling the electric cables.
  • FIG. 2 shows a detail of the module 12.
  • module 12 comprises a body in which several drawers 24 are housed. there are as many drawers 24 as there are connections to be made with pins plates 7.
  • Each drawer 24 is constituted by a piece of material synthetic, of generally parallelepiped shape, one of the faces 25 is open. Inside the drawer 24 are provided partitions 26 and a pad 27 projecting from the face 21 opposite the open face 25.
  • Each drawer 24 has on two opposite faces latching lugs 28 intended to come and engage, as shown in Figure 3, in openings that includes the housing constituting the module.
  • each drawer 24 contains a piece of conductive connection 29 in general S shape, mounted against support partitions 26, and the lower end of which has a slot 30 lyre-shaped, this slot 30 being located opposite a slot 32 of the drawer 24, this slot 32 being itself located opposite a slot 14 of the module.
  • a flat pin 7 will therefore pass through the slot 14 of the module, the slot 32 of drawer 24 for engaging in slot 30 of the lyre of the part 29.
  • the drawer 24 also contains a pin-shaped part 33 closed on itself, this pin being an elastic pin of the type known per se, having an opening 34 for the passage of a cable driver.
  • a tool such as a screwdriver is engaged in the opening 23 of the module to deform the pin 33 and disengage the opening 34 from the latter by bringing it in look of the opening 22 through which the conductive cable is engaged.
  • the action exerted by the tool on the pin 33 is released and it relaxes by securing the conductor cable.
  • FIG. 4 shows a top view of a variant of a module, in which the same elements are designated by the same references than before.
  • each drawer is equipped, not with two pins, but with a double pin 36 made from the same metal blade, separated into two parts 37 arranged on either side of a slot 38, both parts 37 remaining integral by one 39 of the ends of the pin.
  • An opening 34 is formed in each of the parts 37 of the pin, each opening 34 being intended to allow the passage of an element driver.
  • This double pin has the advantage of not being made up only by one piece instead of two and only require the setting place only one piece instead of two, which is an advantage economic.
  • the invention provides a great improvement to the existing technique by providing a device for connection of an electrical box, of simple structure, allowing a simple and non-destructive disconnection, and very easy to use convenient for users.
