Definitions

  • the invention relates to a flat connector for electrically contacting receiving a tab according to the preamble of patent claim 1.
  • Electrical connectors which are composed of a blade-type receptacle and a tab or of a blade-type receptacle and a blade, have found an extremely wide spread in numerous areas of technology, especially in motor vehicle construction due to a combination of advantageous properties.
  • Such electrical connectors are usually relatively inexpensive to produce and can often be assembled by simply pressing with appropriate cable sets. In addition, the assembly can also be done manually with relatively simple means and hand tools, if required, for example, in the workshop. In addition, relatively high currents can be transmitted via flat connectors, which plays an important role in the low-voltage vehicle electrical system of the motor vehicle. Generic blade receptacles are also commonly used to Fuses and relays on printed circuit boards both electrically contact as well as hold mechanically.
  • socket shaft comprises a contact spring basket or lamellar basket.
  • a trained socket shaft has the advantage that on the one hand, a relatively strong hold of the contact blade in the blade receptacle and on the other hand, due to the increase in the number of electrical contact points between the socket and a relatively high current strength is transferable.
  • these known tabs With a suitable arrangement and geometry of the contact springs or slats of the socket shaft, these known tabs also have a certain self-cleaning effect of the electrical contacts, which comes into play each time the electrical contact is detached or joined.
  • the object of the present invention to provide a blade receptacle for a flat electrical connector, which overcomes the disadvantages of the prior art described.
  • the electrical tabs should combine very high mechanical safety and electrical transmission reliability with high maximum current carrying capacity.
  • the flat connector should be able to be produced inexpensively with optimal material utilization and with minimal use of production means.
  • the flat plug socket comprises in a manner known per se a socket shaft for receiving and electrical contacting a tab or contact blade, wherein the socket shaft has at least one disposed on at least one broad side of the socket shaft, comb-like crowd of substantially parallel, extending in the insertion direction contact webs.
  • the contact webs have a curved course towards the center of the socket shaft.
  • the flat plug socket is distinguished by the fact that the curvature of the section of the contact webs bent toward the middle of the shaft has more than one vertex in the region of the contact zone with the flat plug.
  • each of the webs of the web of the socket shaft not, as in the prior art, only a vertex and thus only a point of contact with the tab or with the contact blade, but that rather several web, preferably two per web , Contact points or contact zones for the transmission of electrical power are available.
  • This is also advantageous in that higher mechanical clamping forces can be achieved between the flat plug socket and the flat plug or contact blade in this way, which promotes both the mechanical and the electrical safety of the plug connection.
  • the higher clamping forces are achieved thanks to the invention, without necessarily the necessary insertion forces increase to the same extent.
  • two vertices of the contact webs must not be overcome by the contact blade simultaneously, but rather can be successively successively overcome.
  • the force-displacement curve is smoothed when inserting the contact blade in the socket shaft, which greatly facilitates the manual production of the connector.
  • the blade terminal is characterized by solder legs or press-fit for electrically contacting mounting of the blade terminal, in particular on a circuit board.
  • the solder legs or press-in pins are arranged in extension of at least one of the two broad sides of the blade receptacle.
  • the soldering legs or press-in pins are particularly preferably one-piece with the respective one. Broad side of the blade receptacle formed.
  • crimping webs can also be used for the electrically contacting assembly of the flat plug socket. This is particularly suitable for contacting at a cable end.
  • the flat connector is a one-piece stamped and bent part educated.
  • the stamped and bent part is bent perpendicular to the plug-in direction of the connector between flat receptacle and tab to a rectangular box profile.
  • the closure of the rectangular box profile of the flat connector is formed by a positive mating of at least one notch and at least one tab.
  • the notch on an undercut, and the tab is designed to correspond to the notch.
  • the positive pairing of notch and tab is arranged on a narrow side of the socket shaft and the pairing of notch and tab is additionally impressed positively after joining. Both leads to a particularly high rigidity, in particular torsional rigidity and bending stiffness, of the box profile of the blade-type receptacle.
  • the flat plug socket comprises at least one end-side arranged on the bushing shaft support spring.
  • the support spring By the support spring, a further mechanical and / or electrical contact zone between flat receptacle and tab is formed. This results in an even higher, By means of the connector transferable rated current, better management of the contact blade when making the connector and a higher security against accidental removal of the contact blade from the blade terminal.
  • the at least one support spring is particularly preferably also integrally formed on a narrow side of the socket shaft, which can be done for example by notching already during punch bending of the sheet material of the socket shaft.
  • the socket shaft in addition to the extending between the ends of the socket shaft contact webs, axially extending stabilizing webs. These stabilizing webs connect the two axial ends of the socket shaft firmly and at a constant distance from each other.
  • the stabilizing webs prevent deformation of the socket shaft, which could otherwise occur especially in case of mis-insertion or non-coaxial insertion of the contact blade.
  • the stabilizing webs also make it possible to achieve even higher contact forces between the contact webs and the contact blade, especially since the stabilizing webs reliably prevent axial length changes of the socket shaft due to the deformation of the contact webs when inserting the contact blade.
  • the stabilizing webs are preferably formed by the longitudinal edges of the rectangular box profile. This is beneficial because of this Way optimal use of space in the area of the socket shaft takes place. In addition, a socket shaft with maximum bending strength and maximum torsional strength is obtained.
  • the flat receptacle according to the invention can in principle be produced from a wide variety of conductive materials. According to a preferred embodiment of the invention, however, the blade receptacle is made of highly conductive material, which at the same time has a particularly high specific elasticity. In this way, high rated currents can be transmitted, and there is also high failure safety against mechanical overloads of the connector.
  • Fig. 1 shows an isometric view of an embodiment of a blade receptacle 1 according to the present invention, viewed from obliquely down on the solder legs or press-in pins 2. It can be seen first that the blade receptacle 1 is designed as a one-piece sheet-stamped bent part, wherein the stamped and bent part a rectangular box profile is bent.
  • crowd of contact webs 3 extends continuously from the head end 4 to the foot of each 5 broad side of the box-shaped socket shaft of the blade terminal 1.
  • each of the contact webs 3 in Area of its bent to the center of the socket shaft section two vertices 6, 7 and thus two contact points with the contact blade of a tab.
  • This special plug-in behavior of the flat receptacle 1 combines a smooth and uniform insertion process with a simultaneously achievable maximum electrical and mechanical contact reliability between blade receptacle 1 and contact blade of a tab.
  • the support springs 8 ensure better guidance of the contact blade in the socket 1 and improve safety against unintentional withdrawal of the contact blade from the blade receptacle.
  • the bushing shaft is reinforced by the axially extending stabilizing webs 9.
  • the stabilizing webs 9, which are formed in the illustrated embodiment by the four longitudinal edges 9 of the rectangular box profile of the socket shaft, ensure that the length and shape of the socket shaft, especially during insertion of a tab, but also during operation of the connector, remain invariable. In this way, the stabilizing webs 9 contribute significantly to the robustness and to increase the mechanical or electrical failure safety of the connector.
  • Fig. 2 shows a side view of the blade receptacle 1 of FIG. 1.
  • the blade receptacle 1 is arranged by means of their press-fit pins or solder legs 2 in the breadboard of a printed circuit board 10.
  • Fig. 3 which shows a longitudinal section through the blade receptacle according to Fig. 1 and 2 along the line AA of FIG. 2 , the shape of the contact webs 3 can be seen particularly well, according to the invention in each case two vertices 6, 7 and two Contact points 6, 7 for contacting the contact blade also not shown here have the tab.
  • the contact webs 3 are not only under bending stress, but also by the insertion of a contact blade set under axial compressive stress, which further improves the electrical contact and the mechanical clamping behavior between the contact blade and contact webs 3.
  • Fig. 4 shows that narrow side of the blade receptacle according to FIGS. 1 to 4, on which the connecting elements 11, 12 are located for the closure of the rectangular box profile.
  • Fig. 5 shows again in an isometric view of the tabs according to Fig. 1 to 4, also with a view towards that narrow side of the tabs on which the connection or closure elements 11, 12 of the rectangular box profile. Also clearly visible in Fig. 5, the course of the contact springs 3, the stabilizing webs 9 and a support spring. 8
  • FIG. 6 shows the flat plug socket according to FIG. In the plan view of the head portion 4. This shows in particular the all-round coverage for the contact blade of a flat plug which together through the vertices 6, 7 and the contact points 6, 7 of the contact webs 3 with the lateral support springs 8 is formed. In this way, both a secure electrical contact and a robust mechanical anchorage of the contact blade scored in the socket basket of the flat connector 1.
  • the invention provides not only considerable improvements in terms of transmittable amperage, electrical and mechanical safety and uniformity of the force curve when plugging in at the same time significant profitability advantages due to the rational production of the flat plug socket according to the invention.
  • the invention thus combines improvements in the properties of tabs with significant cost savings potential in manufacturing and assembly.
