Definitions

  • the invention relates to a securing device, in particular for securing a cable harness, comprising a strip fuse with at least two connection contacts for their insertion into the course of the cable harness.
  • Safety devices are used in conjunction with electrical consumers to protect these electrical loads from overcurrents. Fuses are used, inter alia, in motor vehicles, as is operated in motor vehicles with high currents. Securing devices of this type are in the FR 2,171,958 , of the DE 295 20 913 U1 and the US 6,294,978 B1 shown.
  • Such fuses are bordered in the prior art of a fuse housing, which is fastened via suitable fastening means, for example, to the body of the motor vehicle.
  • the housing should protect the fuse from the weather and at the same time isolate, however, a higher workload is required for the formation and placement of the housing in the motor vehicle.
  • Such a housing is to be manufactured separately from the cable harness, it is to be connected to this and finally to anchor, for example via screws to the body of the motor vehicle. From the aforementioned publications of the prior art, it is already known to attach at least one terminal electrically conductive firmly at least one terminal and to seal the strip fuse and the Ansetz Scheme of terminal contact and fitting with an electrically insulating material covering.
  • the invention has for its object to provide a safety device of the type mentioned, which is simple and thus inexpensive to manufacture and in particular in a vehicle is universally applicable.
  • At least one connecting piece is firmly attached to each connecting contact and that the strip fuse and the attachment region of the connecting contact and connecting piece are at least partially sealed covering with an electrically insulating material, wherein the wire harness and the sealing approximately equal cross-sectional dimensions and wherein on the connecting piece a circumferential sealing element is arranged.
  • a seal is provided, which is electrically insulating.
  • the strip fuse and a connector are electrically connected to each other conductive.
  • the connection piece is attached to at least one connection contact, preferably connecting pieces are attached to both connection contacts of the strip fuse.
  • the seal summarizes this Ansetz Scheme between terminal contact and connector with a subsequent release of the connector from the terminal contact is not possible and is not provided in the securing device according to the invention.
  • a compact securing device is formed from prefabricated components, namely the strip fuse and the connection contacts, with the aid of the connection of the electrically conductive components and with the aid of the seal.
  • the seal goes with strip fuse and connection contacts and fittings a solid and permanent connection, without the need for further connection means are provided.
  • the seal can also be formed in the manufacture of the securing device in an automated process, making it inexpensive to produce.
  • the securing device is inserted in the course of a cable harness and the cable harness and the seal have approximately the same cross-sectional dimensions.
  • the securing device according to the invention may consist of an elongated strip fuse, at the connection contacts, for example, in coaxial alignment two longitudinally extending fittings are attached.
  • the safety device is designed overall as a longitudinally extended structure, which can be used in the course of a cable harness. Strip fuse and terminals as well as fittings form a portion of the harness so that the currents passing through the harness are routed through the tab fuse and at least one fuse element arranged in the strip fuse is guided.
  • the securing device according to the invention can thus be arranged at locations where previously the cable harness was arranged without securing device.
  • the setting of the securing device according to the invention by means of fastening means, for example in a motor vehicle is not required because the securing device according to the invention adapts to the formation of the cable harness and how a section of the cable harness can be loosely laid.
  • the harness can be attached as usual in regular sections, for example with cable ties, a separate attachment of the securing device is not required. It is of course possible that the cross sections of harness and seal differ from each other.
  • Connection contact and connector are welded together, for example. They can also be soldered, riveted or otherwise electrically connected.
  • the connecting piece is preferably a cable lug, so that a stripped end of the cable harness can be connected via this lug of the securing device according to the invention.
  • other components may be provided, for example, angle profiles or distribution profiles, the z. B. breakthroughs for passing bolts for fixing additional cable lugs.
  • the sealing material used is preferably a plastic which is pourable, pressable or sprayable.
  • plastic can, for example a thermoplastic or a thermosetting plastic can be used. These plastics have the required insulation and strength properties.
  • a circumferential sealing element is arranged on the connector.
  • This sealing element is required in particular when a plastic to be formed in a mold is used to produce the seal. In this form for casting, pressing or spraying of the plastic to be sealed components of the securing device are inserted.
  • the sealing elements are provided. Each sealing element in this case, for example, an O - ring fitting closely to the connecting piece. The use of the sealing elements also simplifies the tool design and thus reduces the manufacturing costs.
  • At least one breakthrough may be introduced into the sealing material in order in certain cases to achieve a fixing of the securing device according to the invention with the aid of a bolt.
  • Each fuse device in the figures consists of a strip fuse 1 and two connectors 2.
  • the strip fuse 1 has two terminal contacts 3, which are electrically conductively connected to each other via a arranged in a housing 4 fusible conductor.
  • Fig. 1 is a connecting piece 2 formed as a flat profile 5 with an opening 6.
  • the other connector 3 has a design as a cable lug 7. In this cable lug 7, the stripped end of a wire harness 8 is inserted and fixed in the cable lug 7.
  • the terminal contacts 3 and the connecting pieces 2 are electrically connected to each other, for example by welding.
  • the strip fuse 1 with its terminal contacts 3 and connected to the terminal contacts 3 areas of the connecting pieces 2 are completely provided with a seal 9 made of insulating material.
  • the seal 9 is made of plastic, which was poured, for example, around the components to be sealed. The seal 9 is cured.
  • Fig. 2 shows the strip fuse 1 with connectors 2, which are formed here in both cases as cable lugs 7, before attaching the seal. 9
  • a cable lug 7 is angled out of a coaxial extension to the longitudinal extension of the strip fuse 1 by 90 °.
  • Fig. 2 shows that on the connecting pieces 2 as O - rings 10 formed sealing elements can be arranged. These O-rings 10 connect directly to the terminal contacts 3.
  • Fig. 3 shows that as connecting piece 2, an angled flat profile 11 may be provided. In the seal 9 breakthroughs 12 and 13 may be introduced.
