  • Determined and suitable are such Kunststoffiervorraumen eg in the automotive industry in connection with housed in vehicles fuse boxes. Then such justifyiervorraumen serve to plug in the blade contacts of fuses, relays or the like.
  • US 3,634,814 discloses a contacting device, which consists of individual, spaced apart contact springs, which are laterally applied to conductor tracks of a printed circuit board, the contact springs can be arranged on a common central contact strip.
  • the object of such contacting devices is the transmission of medium currents (above 16 amperes) and high currents (above 50 amperes). Important in these contacting high contact forces that exert the contact springs on the mating contacts and also the highest possible number of contact points.
  • An essential feature to achieve this is when Subject of the US 6 210 240 B1 It is to give the contact springs a stable grip, which achieved by a cage-like configuration of the base of the contacting and their solid embedding and locking in receiving chambers of the insulating material.
  • a major disadvantage of the known contacting device is that all contacts of the connector are identical to each other; This means that a specific connector must be designed and manufactured for each application.
  • differently shaped contacting devices are required in many applications, since, for example, relays of different size have flat blade contacts and also deviating fuses generally do not have mutually identical connection blades.
  • Object of the present invention is essentially to provide a contacting of the presupposed as known type, which is much easier to manufacture and also universally applicable.
  • the invention achieves this object with the features of claim 1 and is accordingly characterized in that the contacting device is assembled from at least two contact strips, wherein each contact strip has a central strip, are connected to the - aligned transversely to this - fork springs, and that the at least two contact strips in mutual planar contact their central strips are joined together such that the fork springs of the contact strips, taking into account their congruent aligned arrangement substantially comb-like mesh.
  • the invention provides a contacting device according to the respective needs embody. This is done in principle by the fact that the invention proposes a modular fork spring contact system.
  • a contacting device according to the invention consists in the simplest case of two adjoining contact strips of selectable width, wherein each of the two contact strips comprises a number of fork springs, which cooperate with a number of fork springs of the second contact strip. All fork springs are aligned in a row, so that there is a continuous contact gap for a flat blade contact.
  • a contacting device is formed by joining three contact strips, a contacting device with a number of contact zones that is 50% higher than the first variant with two contact strips can result-assuming the same width.
  • the number of contact zones can be doubled if four contact strips are joined together, always based on the principle that the fork springs formed on the contact strip comb-like mesh to maintain a uniform, continuous male and contact channel for the contact portion of the counter-contacting device.
  • At least one of the at least two contact strips can be provided with connecting pins connected to the central strip.
  • connecting pins connected to the central strip.
  • the two outer contact strips or the two inner contact strips are preferably provided with connection pins.
  • a particularly advantageous further feature of the invention consists in that the contact strips are formed by shortening sections of endlessly generated contact strips.
  • it is intended to produce the shortening sections only after the joining of the individual endless contact strips to one another by means of severing the contact strip packet.
  • contact strip sections of freely selected length By simply separating contact strip sections of freely selected length, individually dimensioned contacting devices can be produced in the simplest manner. Regardless of how wide the desired contacting device should be, it is always obtained from the same starting material, namely the contact strip produced endlessly, by punching and bending and subsequent packaging and cutting to length. The number of shortening sections to be joined together can also be selected within wide limits, whereby preferably two to five stripes are likely to be suitable.
  • the cut out of a flat contact sheet metal strip springs are entangled out of the matching with the plane of the contact sheet metal strip plane of the central strip out.
  • the fork fingers are connected via connected to their fork connecting portions to the central strip and the connecting portions asymmetrically or eccentrically to the Fork bridge are tethered.
  • connection pins are in principle freely selectable. There are solder pins as well as, for example, plug-like pins with elastic press-fit or SMD soldering legs. It is advantageous if the connecting pins cut out of a flat contact sheet metal strip are bent out of the plane of the central strip matching the plane of the contact sheet metal strip. They can thus be placed laterally next to the central strip. Thus, the desired contact grid intervals can be set up in the simplest way.
  • connection pins according to the SMT technique connections with SMD soldering pins
