Definitions

  • the invention relates to an electrical contact terminal provided with an elastic contact blade whose flexibility ensures better electrical contact with a complementary contact terminal.
  • the invention relates to a female electrical contact terminal with elastic contact blade, made in one piece in a cut and folded strip, and for receiving a complementary male contact terminal.
  • the invention has applications in the field of electrical or electronic connectivity and, in particular, in the field of connectivity dedicated to the automotive industry.
  • connectors In the field of connectivity, we seek to make connectors less and less expensive. For this, we seek to design connectors requiring, on the one hand, the least possible material and, on the other hand, the simplest possible manufacturing. To meet these requirements, it is known to make connectors, or contact terminals, female or male, in one piece from a single plate of sheet metal or electrically conductive metal, called strip, cut and folded to form the desired connector.
  • female electrical contact terminals of the cage type are produced.
  • Such a contact terminal comprises a rear portion in which is fixed, by crimping, an electrical wire to be connected with another electrical wire fixed in a complementary male contact terminal.
  • This female contact terminal also comprises a cage-shaped front part intended to receive the male contact terminal.
  • the female contact terminal may also include a transition portion connecting the front portion with the rear portion.
  • Such a female contact terminal is described in the patent application EP-A-0 959 531.
  • the cage of this contact terminal is made from a metal plate, or strip, in which are cut and formed a bottom , two flanks (or side walls) and a ceiling.
  • the ceiling is made in two parts placed side by side. In each side, is cut and folded a tongue intended to form a contact blade by which electrical contact is established between the female terminal and the complementary male terminal.
  • the tongue intended to form the contact blade is cut in the extension of the side of the cage and folded towards the inside of the cage. This is particularly the case in the patent application EP-A-0 959 531.
  • the contact blade can also come from a tongue cut in the rear part of the cage and folded towards the front of said cage.
  • each side of the cage also has an orifice through which the contact blade is placed.
  • the orifice is intended to receive a locking pin of the terminal in a cell a connector housing receiving this terminal.
  • the contact blades of the known contact terminals are simply folded towards the inside of the cage. Also, when the contact tail of the male contact terminal is introduced between the two contact blades, it is important that the two contact blades remain in permanent contact with the contact tail. It is therefore necessary that the contact blades are flexible or flexible.
  • the female contact terminal is weakened in narrow places and in particular at the intersections of the cutting lines. Indeed, due to the cutting, forming and folding of the strip, when it is thin, intersections of the cutting lines can be sheared and / or tear under the action of a lateral mechanical thrust on a wall or parallel to this wall. The risk of cutting and shearing the contact blades is further increased if, for any reason, the Male and female contact terminals must be disassembled before being reassembled.
  • the contact blades do not have a great flexibility. However, if the contact blades are not flexible then, under the thrust of the contact tail being introduced between the contact blades, they depart from each other and the electrical contact with the tail contact is poorly established.
  • US-A-5 941 741 discloses a contact terminal according to the preamble of claim 1.
  • the invention proposes an electrical contact terminal, in which the resilient contact blades are made more flexible by means of one or more stampings made in the folding zone of said contact blades.
  • the invention relates to the female contact terminals, made in one piece in a strip, in which the contact blades are bent inwardly of said contact terminal.
  • the contact terminal of the invention may also comprise reinforcing blades bearing against the contact blades to reinforce the latter in the area in contact with the contact tail of the complementary male terminal.
  • the invention relates to a female electrical contact terminal according to claim 1.
  • FIG. 1 represents a view from above of a female electrical contact terminal according to one embodiment of the invention.
  • This contact terminal 2 is shown when it is ready to be crimped around an electrical conduction wire 1.
  • the female contact terminal 2 is represented when its front part 3 is cut and folded. and that its rear portion 5 and its transition portion 4 are cut and waiting for the introduction and crimping of an electric wire 1.
  • the rear portion 5 of the female contact terminal 2 has a bottom and two sides, of complementary shapes, forming crimping wings. These flanks are shown in Figure 1 open, that is to say in the position in which they are after folding of the strip forming the contact terminal but before crimping the electrical wire. These flanks are intended to be folded and tightened around the insulator 1a of the electrical wire 1 to maintain it in a fixed position in the contact terminal.
  • the transition portion 4 of the female contact terminal 2 also has a bottom and two flanks of complementary shapes. As for the rear part, the flanks of the transition part are shown in FIG. 1, open, that is to say in the position in which they are located after folding of the strip forming the contact terminal but before crimping. electrical wire. These flanks are intended to be folded and tightened around the stripped zone 1b of the electrical wire 1 so that an electrical contact is established between the stripped portion of the electrical wire 1 and the transition portion 4 of the contact terminal.
  • the female contact terminal of the invention has dimensions and an external shape identical to those of the female contact terminals of the prior art. It can thus be inserted into a conventional male contact terminal, commonly used in the field of connectors.
  • the male contact terminal, complementary to the female contact terminal of the invention, will therefore not be described here.
  • the front portion 3 of the contact terminal 2 forms a cage having a bottom 16 and a ceiling 6 formed of two parts 6a and 6b joined together to form a substantially flat surface.
  • the two parts 6a and 6b fit one into the other, thereby stiffening the ceiling 6 of the cage.
  • the portion 6a of the ceiling has protrusions forming tenons 7a and 7b and the other part of the ceiling may comprise notches forming mortises 7c, receiving the tenons of the portion 6a.
  • Parts 6a and 6b can also be simply placed side by side, without interlocking from one part to the other.
  • the cage has two sidewalls or sidewalls 8 and 8 ', of which only the sidewall 8 is visible in FIG. 1.
  • Each sidewall has a tongue on the front part of the cage, this tongue being folded towards the inside of the cage to form a contact blade.
  • the contact blades of this female terminal are not visible in this figure. They will be described in detail later with reference to FIGS. 2 to 4.
  • the sidewall 8 of the cage has an orifice 9 and a second tongue intended to form a reinforcing blade 10.
  • This sidewall 8 and the sidewall 8 ', identical to the sidewall 8, will be described in more detail later.
  • FIG. 2 shows, in profile, according to a view from the rear of the contact terminal, the inside of the cage of the contact terminal of Figure 1.
  • Figure 2 shows the cage of the contact terminal of Figure 1, in which the ceiling 6 has been removed. The fact that there is no ceiling on this cage does not constitute an embodiment of the invention; this is simply intended to allow a better understanding of the invention by the reader.
  • the contact blade 11 is separated from the blade 11 'by a gap, or air gap, the size of which is adapted to receive the contact tail of the complementary male contact terminal.
  • the tongue forming the contact blade 11 comprises stampings 12, located in the area where the tongue is folded towards the inside of the cage. These stampings 12 are made by stamping on the strip, after cutting thereof, but before folding the strip and, in particular, before folding the tongue forming the contact blade 11.
  • stampings give the contact blades some flexibility, thus making the contact blades more elastic.
  • stampings have the advantage of enlarging the portion of the tongue which is folded, which lengthens the contact blade inwards and increases the contact area with the contact tail of the male terminal, without requiring a larger amount of strip.
  • stampings also have the advantage of reduce the constraints of the contact blades in their folding zone.
  • a single stamp can be made in each contact blade.
  • several stampings are made in each contact blade. The number of stampings made depends essentially on the thickness of the strip as well as the desired flexibility for the contact blades.
  • FIG. 2 also shows two tongues forming reinforcing blades 10 and 10 '. These reinforcing blades 10 and 10 'are cut in the sides 8 and 8' of the cage of the female contact terminal. Once cut, these second tabs 10 and 10 'are folded a first time towards the inside of the cage with an angle of the order of 45 °, then folded again so as to make them substantially parallel to the sidewalls 8 and 8 . The free end of each of these tongues forming the reinforcing blades 10 and 10 'is then in abutment against the inner face of one of the contact blades 11 and 11', respectively. Each contact blade 11 and 11 'is thus reinforced, by a bearing on its free end, a reinforcing blade 10 and 10', which ensures the maintenance in position of the contact blades 11 and 11 '.
  • the contact blades 11 and 11 ' are sufficiently flexible to facilitate the introduction of the contact tail but they are not likely to remain separated from each other after the introduction of the contact tail.
  • the flexibility given to the contact blades 11 and 11 'by the stampings ensures an easy introduction of the contact tail between said blades and the reinforcing blades 10 and 10' ensure their retention in position against this contact tail.
  • the contact blades can thus remain in permanent contact with the contact tail of the male terminal.
  • the reinforcing blades 10 and 10 ' are made with portions of the strip which are usually cut in the sidewalls 8 and 8' to make the orifices 9 and 9 '.
  • the reinforcing blades are thus made with a portion of the strip which is generally considered as waste. This provides a reinforcement of the contact blades without this requiring a quantity of additional strip.
  • they may be the width of the orifices 9 and 9 '. These orifices 9 and 9 'may, in this case, be of rectangular shapes.
  • FIG. 3 there is shown a cut strip 13, intended to be shaped to achieve a female contact terminal according to the invention.
  • this strip there is shown in thick lines the blanks of the strip and in fine lines the folding zones of the strip, that is to say the locations where the strip will be folded during its shaping.
  • FIG. 3 thus shows the cutouts 7a-7c intended to form the tenon / mortise assembly of the ceiling 6, the cutouts 10 and 10 'of the tongues intended to form the reinforcing blades, the cutouts 9 and 9' of the orifices and the tongues 11 and 11 'for forming the contact blades.
  • the contact blades 11 and 11 ' are made from tabs cut outside the portion of the strip intended to form the cage of the contact terminal.
  • the locations e3 and e3 'of the first folds of the tongues 10 and 10' intended to form the reinforcement strips and the locations e4 and e4 'of the second folds of these tongues 10 and 10' are represented.
  • the tongues 11 and 11 ' are stamped, with one or more stampings, in the fold zones e1 and e1'. These tongues are then folded a first time at the zones e2 and e2 'and then a second time at the zones e1 and e1', that is to say stamped areas.
  • the reinforcing blades may also include one or more stampings made at the folding zones e3 and e3 ', before folding the strip.
  • Figure 4 is shown, in profile, in a view from the front of the contact terminal, the strip of Figure 3 after folding.
  • the stampings may be in the form of grooves made in the width of the tongue forming the contact blade. These stampings may also have other forms that may depend on the flexibility sought for the contact blade.
  • FIG. 4 also shows, through the orifice 9 ', the reinforcing blade 10' coming from the side 8 'of the cage and folded towards the inside of the cage so as to bear against the contact blade 11' .
  • the reinforcing blade 10 ' may comprise one or two lateral fins 15' cut in the strip at the same time as the tongue forming the reinforcing blade.
  • FIG 4 only one fin has been shown for each reinforcing blade.
  • These lateral fins 15 'and 15 are intended to abut in windows 14' and 14 formed in the ceiling 6 of the cage.
  • they abut, on the one hand, in a window made in the ceiling of the cage and, on the other hand, in a window made in the bottom 16 of the cage.
  • These windows of sizes adapted to the fins have the role of receiving the fins and, thus, to maintain the reinforcing blades against the contact blades with a predefined set, depending on the width of the window.
  • This clearance corresponds to the clearance allowed for the contact blades, that is to say to the movement allowed to the contact blades during the introduction of the contact tail of the male terminal.
  • these sets of vanes and windows can limit the movement of the opening contact blades and protect against a stress exceeding their elastic capacity, when introducing a tail contact. They thus define an air gap between the contact blades.
  • the bottom 16 and the ceiling 6 each comprise a cantilevered front portion, located opposite the U-shaped section having the folding zone of the contact blade.
  • FIG. 5 it is the contact blades 11 and 11 'which each comprise one or two lateral fins.
  • This embodiment is shown in FIG. 5 in the form of a cut strip, ready to be folded.
  • the example strip of Figure 5 comprises a portion for forming the bottom 16 of the cage and two parts 6a and 6b for forming the ceiling 6 of the cage.
  • the two parts 6a and 6b of the ceiling are folded and positioned side by side to form the ceiling.
  • fins 15, 18 and 15 ', 18' are cut on either side of the free end 19, 19 'of the contact blades 11 and 11'.
  • the fins 15 and 18 can thus abut in windows 14 and 17 provided, respectively, in the ceiling 6 and in the bottom 16 of the cage.
  • the fins 15 'and 18' can abut in windows 14 'and 17' formed, respectively, in the ceiling 6 and in the bottom 16 of the cage.
  • the contact blades may also each comprise a single fin; in this case, the fins abut either in the windows 14 and 14 'of the ceiling 6 or in the windows 17 and 17' of the bottom 16.
  • these fins and these windows make it possible to limit the deflection of the opening contact blades and to protect them against a load exceeding their elastic capacity, when an additional contact terminal is introduced. They thus define a precise gap between the contact blades. It will be noted that this embodiment in which the fins are made on the contact blades is easier to implement than the previous embodiment because there is more material available around the contact blades than around the reinforcing blades. . In addition, this embodiment makes it possible to obtain a better accuracy of the gap, that is to say the distance between the internal faces of the contact blades.
  • the contact blades are made by tongues cut in the extension of the front part of the cage.
  • the invention can also be implemented in female contact terminals whose contact blades are made by tongues cut in the rear extension of the cage.
  • the stampings are then made at the back of the cage.
  • the reinforcing blades which are formed by tabs cut in the extension of the front part of the cage are supported on the outer face of the contact blades. It is then the reinforcing blades that form the drain.
  • These reinforcing blades have the advantage, in this case, to also include one or more stampings, making the drain more flexible.
  • stampings can be carried out in all the contact terminals comprising a folded elastic contact blade, whether male terminals or female terminals, cage type or not .
