Definitions

  • the invention relates to a plug, in particular for a control unit, comprising a plug input with at least two input terminals, a plug output with at least two output terminals and at least one connecting part, via which the respectively associated terminals - input terminal and output terminal - are connected to each other.
  • Plugs that differ in the assignment of the plug outputs with a given assignment of the plug inputs.
  • the governor of the alternator may be mentioned, whose connector may have different output assignments depending on the vehicle type.
  • the variety of plug variants is realized in practice by means of correspondingly configured inserts that serve as connecting parts.
  • the geometry of these connecting parts is very complex, especially when three-dimensional connection crossings have to be realized in order to provide the desired coverage at the plug output. Since practically every plug variant is equipped with an individually configured connecting part, the plug housings, which are adapted to the geometry of the respective connecting part, usually also differ. Overall, this leads to relatively high production costs.
  • the WO 98/09486 shows a connector assembly comprising, inter alia, a stamped grid, which is suitable for connecting connector pins.
  • a connector assembly comprising, inter alia, a stamped grid, which is suitable for connecting connector pins.
  • the plug input and the plug output are decoupled by at least one first connection part is provided, which comprises only input terminals, and at least a second connection part, which comprises only output terminals.
  • the two connecting parts are arranged one above the other in such a way that the respectively associated connections are superimposed on at least one intersection point, and that the respectively associated connections are connected to one another by contacting at the intersection point.
  • the decoupling of plug input and plug output substantially simplifies the connection routing, i. the geometries of the input and output terminals.
  • connection routing i. the geometries of the input and output terminals.
  • two superposed connection parts - a first connection part exclusively for the input terminals and a second connection part exclusively for the output terminals - eliminates the costly realization of three-dimensional intersections.
  • such connecting parts can be used with suitable geometry of the connections without adaptation or modification for the realization of different plug variants, which also has a positive effect on the manufacturing cost.
  • the first connecting part for each of the input terminals on its own terminal block which includes at least as many connection points, as possible associated output terminals are present.
  • each output terminal is connected to the corresponding terminal block via a connection point Input terminal connected.
  • the coding of the connector is particularly simple here, since the output terminals can be easily assigned to either one of the input terminals and connected to this.
  • each output terminal on the second connecting part must be guided only to the appropriate connection point on the terminal block of the associated input terminal.
  • the second connecting part for each of the output terminals may also have its own terminal strip, which comprises at least as many connection points as possible associated input terminals are present.
  • each input terminal is connected to the associated output terminal via a connection point on the corresponding terminal block.
  • each input terminal must be performed on the first connector only to the appropriate junction on the terminal block of the associated output terminal.
  • both the first and the second connecting part for each of its connections has its own terminal block which comprises at least as many connection points as possible associated connections are present.
  • the plug can be coded particularly easily if the connection points of the two connecting parts are arranged in mutually coordinated connection point grids, ie. in grids with the same pitch.
  • the two connecting parts are arranged one above the other so that their intersection grid over each other but are rotated against each other so that any connection of an input terminal to an output terminal by simply connecting two superposed connection points can be realized ,
  • the connecting parts of the connector according to the invention can be realized in an advantageous manner as sheet-metal stamped parts, in particular in the form of stamped gratings.
  • the two connecting parts by introducing a suitable insulator material against each other be electrically isolated.
  • the connection parts can also be realized in the form of an electrically insulating support, are applied to the conductor tracks. For contacting two terminals or connection points are solder, welding, adhesive, thermocompression or clamping connections.
  • a first connecting part 10 of a connector according to the invention for a control unit 100 is shown.
  • the connecting part 10 is realized as an insert in the form of a sheet metal stamped part.
  • the connecting part 10 comprises exclusively all input terminals of the plug, namely the three input terminals 1, 2 and 3, which are connected to the outputs of the control unit 100.
  • the plug output which is not shown here and only in conjunction with the Figures 2 and 3 is explained in more detail, according to the invention is decoupled from the connector input by a second connection part is provided, which includes only all output terminals.
  • the two connecting parts are arranged one above the other in the connector housing in such a way that the respectively associated connections - input connection and output connection - overlap at at least one intersection point.
  • the respective associated connections are connected to each other at the intersection. Otherwise, the two connecting parts are insulated from each other.
  • All input terminals 1, 2 and 3 are realized in the form of a terminal block. Since the plug in the exemplary embodiment illustrated here comprises three output terminals, three connection points 11, 12, 13 are in each of the three terminal strips 1, 2 and 3 arranged parallel to one another. 21, 22, 23 and 31, 32, 33, so that these connection points 11, 12, 13; 21, 22, 23 and 31, 32, 33 are arranged in a grid.
  • connection points 11, 12, 13; 21, 22, 23 and 31, 32, 33 and their arrangement enables a simple connection of the output terminals with the associated input terminals, regardless of which terminals are combined with each other.
  • the three output terminals 4, 5 and 6 of the connector output 40 are also arranged parallel to each other but perpendicular to the terminal strips 1, 2 and 3 of the first connection part 10.
  • the output terminals 4, 5 and 6 are also dimensioned to cover one terminal of each of the input terminals 1, 2, 3, respectively.
  • all possible codings of the plug ie combinations of input and output connections, can be realized in a simple manner by contacting each output connection 4, 5 and 6 of the second connection part with the corresponding connection point of the first connection part. Even a permutational coding does not require special connecting parts with three-dimensional terminal junctions.
  • connection points 7 Since the in Fig. 2 Connections 7 shown between the first and the second connection part set the assignment of the individual input terminals to the individual output terminals and thus determine the coding of the plug, they are referred to here as coding connection points 7. Between the first and the second connecting part an insulation 8 is arranged.
  • the regions of the first connecting part 10 denoted by 9 serve to pre-fix the plug outlet 40. These prefixing regions 9 do not necessarily have to be part of the finished plug. They are only needed for manufacturing reasons before connecting the two connecting parts.
  • the three output terminals 4, 5 and 6 of the connector output 40 are each guided only up to the corresponding connection point of the associated input terminal 1, 2 or 3.
  • the coding of the plug is not exclusively via the contacts 7 but takes place already in the formation of the output terminals 4, 5 and 6.
  • Fig. 4 clarifies again by means of in Fig. 3 illustrated variant, the inventive decoupling of the plug input from the connector output 40 by using a first connection part 10, which comprises only input terminals and is realized here in the form of a standard punched part, and a second connecting part 20, which exclusively comprises output terminals and is realized here in the form of an insert.
  • the first connecting part 10 forms the input level of the plug according to the invention, while the second Connecting part forms the output level.
  • the contactless junction of terminals is laid in the interface between the input level and output level and takes place here via the three input terminals designed as terminal strips, to which the output terminals optionally access.
  • all combinations of input connections with output connections are possible.
  • the coupling of the input level with the output level is done by contacting in the area of the terminal strips.
  • the complexity of the connecting parts can be reduced to such an extent that they can also be realized in the form of simple stamped gratings, which are largely independent of the coding of the plug.
  • the coding terminals can be realized for example by solder, welding, adhesive, thermocompression or clamping connections.
  • the two connecting parts 10 and 20 are arranged here in a housing 50, in which the control unit 100 is located.
