Definitions
- the invention relates to a block sealing system for an electrical connector, with a block seal which can be inserted into the connector housing and through which at least one electrical contact is inserted or pierced when the electrical connector is fitted. It also relates to an electrical connector with such a block sealing system.
- the invention has for its object to provide an improved block sealing system and an improved electrical connector of the type mentioned, in which the aforementioned problems are eliminated in the simplest possible way.
- this object is achieved with regard to the block sealing system in that the block seal in the area of a respective electrical contact, viewed in the contact plug direction, is subdivided into at least two plug areas which are spaced apart in the contact plug direction.
- a respective plug-in area is expediently provided with an opening for each associated contact, the maximum diameter of which is preferably smaller than the maximum transverse dimension of the contact in question and in particular smaller than the outside diameter of the line in question to which the contact is provided or attached.
- the actual sealing takes place in the area of the line. When a contact is pushed through a respective opening, this opening is preferably only widened. In principle, however, embodiments are also conceivable in which no such openings are provided. In this case, the contacts are pierced through the relevant plug-in areas.
- the block sealing system according to the invention can be used for all sealed connectors. The one in question
- connectors can be equipped as before, but the contacts are easier to insert. When the contacts are plugged in, it is no longer necessary to displace any unnecessary sealing material. Only the sealing material that is required for sealing the relevant line or cable is displaced.
- the respective connector can be completely pre-assembled. A further assembly step when later using the respective connector is not necessary.
- Sealing systems are already known from the publications EP 1 251 616 AI, WO 97/41474 and WO 89/10021, in which the relevant conductor ends are only partially surrounded by the relevant sealing material. However, these are two-part sealing systems, the halves of which are brought together to achieve the sealing function.
- the block seal in the area of a respective electrical contact in the contact plug direction is expediently subdivided into at least three plug areas which are spaced apart in the contact plug direction.
- a preferred practical embodiment of the block sealing system according to the invention is characterized in that the block seal is subdivided into a total of at least two or at least three layers and the plug regions which are spaced apart in the contact plug direction are distributed over these layers.
- plug-in areas assigned to at least one electrical contact each have the same geometry or contour.
- the plug-in areas assigned to at least one electrical contact each have an angular contour. Because this inner sealing contour is instead of round, the plug-in areas, for example in the form of a membrane or lip, have more freedom of movement when inserting the contacts, as a result of which the load on the sealing material is reduced accordingly, so that ultimately one
- the block seal system is given a more flexible structure overall.
- the plug-in areas assigned to at least one electrical contact each have a square contour.
- the plug-in areas assigned to at least one electrical contact or the different layers of the block seal can at least partially consist of different material, at least partially have a different Shore hardness, at least partially contain different additives and / or at least partially have different dimensions.
- the block sealing system can thus be optimally adapted to different user requirements. By sandwiching the various layers of the block seal into the connector housing, a sandwich-like structure of the block seal system ultimately results.
- the electrical contacts can be multi-row or single-row inserted in the block seal.
- a respective plug-in area is assigned to only one electrical contact.
- the plug-in area is preferably provided with only one opening. In principle, however, a design without an opening is also conceivable in this case.
- a pocket free of sealing material is provided in front of and / or behind a respective plug-in area, viewed in the contact plug-in direction, the cross-section of which decreases or widens in the plug-in direction.
- the opening of a respective plug-in area can be arranged centrally in the plug-in direction and viewed over the thickness of the respective layer.
- the opening of a respective plug-in area is arranged in the middle in a plane perpendicular to the plug-in direction and viewed over the respective plug-in area.
- the electrical connector according to the invention is characterized in that it is provided with a block sealing system according to the invention.
- it can be a connector.
- the invention can be used for all sealed connectors with multi-row or single-row contacts and in particular for all so-called Tangles contacts (eg BTS, GT, MTS-B).

- an embodiment of a block sealing system for an electrical connector is shown, which may be a connector, for example.
- the block sealing system comprises a block seal 12 which can be inserted into the connector housing 10 (cf. in particular FIG. 6) and through which at least one electrical contact 14 (cf. FIGS. 4 and 5) is inserted or pierced when the electrical connector is fitted.
- the block seal 12 is subdivided into at least two plug regions 16 which are at a distance a from one another in the contact plug direction KS.
- the block seal 12 in the area of a respective electrical contact 14 is each subdivided into three such plug-in areas 16 which are at a respective distance a from one another.
- the plug regions 16, which are each assigned to at least one electrical contact 14, can each be embodied in the manner of a membrane or lip.
- a respective plug-in area 16 is provided with an opening 18 for each associated contact 14, each of which has a circular opening cross section in the two present embodiments.
- the diameter of these openings 18 is preferably smaller than the maximum transverse dimension and smaller than the diagonal dimension D of the relevant contact 14 and in particular smaller than the outer diameter of the relevant line on which the contact 14 is provided or attached.
- the actual sealing takes place in the area of the line.
- this opening 18 is usually only widened. Piercing can take place in particular if there is no such opening 18.
- three contacts 14 are assigned to a respective plug-in area 16.
- Reason- In addition, more than three contacts 14 or only one such electrical contact 14 can be assigned to such a plug-in area 16.
- the plug-in areas 16 assigned to at least one electrical contact 14 can have the same geometry or contour.
- these plug-in areas 16 each have an angular contour, which here is, for example, rectangular (see e.g. FIG. 1), e.g.
- a plug-in area 16 assigned to only one contact 14 it can also be square, for example.
- the electrical contacts 14 can be inserted in the block seal 12, for example in multiple rows or in one row.
- the block seal 12 is subdivided into a total of, for example, three layers 12 ⁇ -123, the plug-in areas 16 having a respective distance a from one another in the contact plug-in direction KS being distributed over these layers 12 ⁇ -123 ,
- the layers 12 ⁇ -123 of the block seal 12 can have the same geometry.
- the various layers 12 ⁇ -123 of the block seal 12 can be sandwiched into the connector housing 10.
- the plug-in areas 16 assigned to at least one electrical contact 14 or the different layers 121-123 of the block seal 12 can at least partially consist of different material, at least partially have a different Shore hardness, at least contain partially different additives and / or at least partially have different dimensions.
- pockets 20 free of sealing material above and below the respective membrane-like or tongue-like plug-in regions 16.
- the width b of these pockets 20 and thus the width of the respective plug-in region 16 can be in the region, for example of 4.5 mm.
- the thickness d (cf. for example FIG. 3) of a respective plug-in area 16 can be approximately 0.5 mm, for example.
- the diagonal dimension D (see e.g. FIG. 5) of a respective electrical contact 14 can be, for example, in the range of approximately 4 mm.
- the diameter of a respective opening 18 can be, for example, in the range of 2.8 mm.
- the distances a between the plug-in areas 16 which follow one another in the plug-in direction KS can be the same or at least partially different.
- the thicknesses d of the plug-in areas 16 which follow one another in the plug-in direction KS can again be the same or at least partly different. The same applies accordingly to the dimensions of the spaces or pockets 20 free of sealing material.
- Fig. 7 shows a schematic perspective view of a further embodiment of a divided block seal 12, which in the present case is divided into two layers 12 ⁇ , 122, for example.
- a respective plug-in area 16 is assigned to only one electrical contact 14 (cf. FIG. 10) or is only provided with an opening 18.
