Definitions

  • the invention relates to a three-dimensional (3D) shaped flat cable and a method for its production.
  • a method for producing a wiring harness for vehicles in which the lines are glued to a carrier foil and provided with plugs and are fastened to a dimensionally stable carrier, wherein at least some of the lines consist of non-insulated stranded conductors which successively and independently to a insulating provided with an adhesive layer carrier film placed along a predetermined line and then either placed on the carrier film an insulating protective film and glued to the carrier film by applying pressure or coated the carrier film and the applied stranded conductor with a protective lacquer and finally adapted by trimming to the contour of the site becomes.
  • a disadvantage of this method is the laborious laying of the tracks and their fixation on the dimensionally stable carrier.
  • a wiring harness and a method of manufacturing the same having power cables arranged in a first resinous layer having recesses, wherein the first resin layer is formed to extend along a predetermined routing distance of the power cables and a second resin layer fixed to the first resin layer is connected so as to cover at least the recess of the first resin layer and attached by vacuum molding.
  • the invention has for its object to provide a three-dimensionally shaped flat cable and a method for its production, which avoid the disadvantages of the known solutions and allow the intermediate step, the production of dimensionally stable flat cables, which are placed only in a second step at their installation location.
  • a flat cable consisting of a laminate which consists of at least one integrated between two insulating layers conductor track and at least one carrier layer which are interconnected by means of an adhesive layer and applied to a positive mold and using heat and pressure brought into shape and by cooling below the glass transition temperature T g of the adhesive layer or curing of Adhesive layer is fixed in its three-dimensional shape shape, being used as an adhesive layer, a thermoplastic adhesive, a thermoplastic adhesive film and / or an adhesive nonwoven fabric having a melting point T m ⁇ 180 ° C and / or a latent reactive adhesive having a crosslinking temperature ⁇ 140 ° C.
  • Adhesive layers of this type make it possible to connect the flat cable and the porous support layer firmly and to form an intermediate molding. When reactive adhesives are used, cooling may be dispensable, but adequate solidification must have occurred through extensive curing by crosslinking.
  • Such a 3D flat cable is also storable as an intermediate part before installation.
  • the porous carrier layer is advantageously made of a nonwoven fabric or fabric of polymeric fibers.
  • the flat cable according to the invention may be at least partially back-injected with a thermoplastic. This makes it possible to produce parts designed for the installation site.
  • the conductors of the conductor track are exposed before the lamination at least in partial areas of their surface to form contact fields.
  • Particularly preferred is a flat cable that is equipped with electronic components.
  • functionally finished electronic components can be produced in a very rational manner.
  • the production of the 3D flat cables as intermediate parts takes place in such a way that the laminate consisting of flat cable, adhesive and nonwoven layers is applied to a positive molding tool, aligned and shaped using heat and / or radiation and / or pressure and through Cooling below the glass transition temperature T g of the adhesive layer or curing of the adhesive layer is fixed in its shape.
  • pressure for example, a negative pressure is applied to the back of the laminate.
  • the fixed in shape in their shape laminate parts are reworked by punching, milling or cutting and installed in a separate step at their site or back-injected for better assembly at least partially in an injection molding process with a thermoplastic.
  • a metal foil is preferably used in the lamination process and / or in the mold.
  • nonwoven fabric for the said process, it is preferable to use those of polyester or polyamide having a thickness of 0.1 to 2 mm, a tensile strength of 50 to 250 N / 50 mm and an elongation of 30 to 50%.
  • the adhesive nonwoven used as a thermoplastic adhesive layer should have a softening temperature between 30 and 180 ° C, its basis weight should be between 10 and 70 g / m 2 and it should have a low melt index.
  • the materials used are flexible flat cables (FFC), 1.2-1.4 mm thick, hot-melt adhesive material of copolyamides with T m : 105-110 ° C., a basis weight of 30 g / m 2 and thermally bonded polyethylene terephthalate spunbonded nonwoven having a basis weight of 250 g / m 2 used.
  • a non-woven fabric is laminated to the back side of an FFC with a hot-melt press at 140 ° C using a press.
  • the nonwoven serves as a carrier layer, the hot melt adhesive improves moldability.
  • This laminate is fixed on a positive mold and shaped at 140 ° C / 30 sec. After cooling the tool, the laminate is removed as a dimensionally stable flat cable of the form.
  • Example 1 Analogously to Example 1 is a flexible flat cable with 45 g / m 2 of a copolyamide having a melting point T m of 105 ° C and a thermally bonded staple fiber non-woven fabric of polyethylene terephthalate fibers having a basis weight of 100 g / m 2 using a 0.5 mm thick Laminated aluminum foil as a cooling element and fixed at 140 ° C / 45 s on a positive mold. After cooling the tool, the laminate is removed as a dimensionally stable flat cable of the form.
  • Example 1 Analogously to Example 1 is a flexible flat cable with ultraviolet light (UV) curing adhesive and a thermally bonded spunbonded fabric Polyethylene terephthalate fibers having a basis weight of 150 g / m 2 laminated together.
  • UV ultraviolet light
  • the molding takes place at room temperature under UV light irradiation on a positive mold.
  • the laminate is removed as a dimensionally stable flat cable of the form.
  • the dimensionally stable flat cable is then partially back-injected with polypropylene in an injection molding process.
  • Example 1 Analogously to Example 1 is a flexible flat cable, which is equipped with electronic components such as light emitting diodes (LED), with 25 g / m 2 of a copolyamide having a melting point T m of 105 ° C and a thermally bonded spunbonded nonwoven polyethylene terephthalate fibers having a basis weight of 150 g / m 2 together and fixed at 110 ° C / 120 s on a positive mold. After cooling the tool, the laminate is removed as a dimensionally stable flat cable of the form.
