Definitions
- the invention relates to a contact partner (retaining sleeve) for a connector for use in automotive or other applications for electrical connections, which is arranged at the end of an electrical line and accommodated in a connector housing, wherein the contact partner at least one locking tab for fixing and fixing the contact partner in having the connector housing, according to the features of the preamble of claim 1.
- Contact partners for connectors for use in automotive technology, communications, household appliances or other electrical connections are known.
- Known contact systems comprising a connector (such as a plug) and a mating connector (such as a socket) are designed so that in addition to the electrical requirements such as the transmission of power and signal current and mechanical requirements such as application of the contact normal forces, electrical contact of the Line (for example by crimp connection or insulation displacement technology), but also support and fixation of the contact partner in a connector housing (in particular its housing chamber) meet.
- low insertion forces on mating of plug and socket on the one hand and high contact normal forces (for reliable contacting for power or signal current transmission) are in contradiction. If, in fact, low insertion forces are to be enabled, this is accompanied by low contact normal forces and vice versa.
- a connector is from the DE 199 48 037 A1 known.
- the advantage of this known connector is the avoidance of a contact partner who is struck at the end of the electrical conductor of the line. For this purpose, it is provided that for receiving the insertion forces when mating plug and coupler, both the end portion of the electrical line and the exposed electrical conductor are defined by the connector housing.
- an electrical connector having one of the electrical housings with a plurality of contact receiving chambers is known, a plurality of female contacts formed for insertion into the chambers, each contact having a longitudinal axis and a mating portion adapted for mating with a male contact
- the latching device comprises at least one latching arm which extends substantially parallel to the longitudinal axis of the socket contacts, the latching arm substantially in one Direction is biased and has opposite ends, which are secured to the mating portion of the female contact by elastic tabs which are arranged in a substantially vertical plane to the particular direction, and wherein each fulness the receiving chamber has a reduced cross-sectional area configured to engage and bias the latch arm of a
- the contact partner consists of a first part for receiving a complementary connector element, which alswelst at least one locking tab, as well as a further part, wherein over the other part of a contact normal force is applied.
- the contact partner which is housable in a contact chamber (housing chamber) of a connector housing, consists of a first part having the at least one locking tab for fixing and fixing in the connector housing and can receive a mating contact partner.
- the contact partner is in one piece, with multi-part designs are quite conceivable.
- the design of the contact partner (also called protective sleeve or similar) is designed so that it assumes a purely mechanical function, such.
- B. Latch function primary interlock, secondary interlock, etc.
- the contact partner with its pressure element for applying the contact normal force in the connector housing is stuck in a relatively movement-free connection with the electrical line.
- the contact partner has a pressure element for generating the high contact normal force in operative connection with the mating contact partner.
- the pressure element is formed for example by punching or bending or the like of the same or a different material of the contact partner.
- the contact partner has a primary locking tab and a secondary locking tab and is fixedly connected to the pressure element.
- the primary locking tab and additionally with the secondary locking tab of the contact partner when inserting into the associated contact chamber of the connector housing in this fixed and fixed.
- These tabs can also be worked out by punching and / or bending from the contact partner or be formed as an additional component fastened there.
- the contact partner has a mechanical connection from one end of the contact partner as a crimped connection with which the line is mechanically connected to the contact partner.
- a crimp connection is therefore of particular advantage for use in mass production, since it represents a permanent connection with conventional crimping tools, and thus the purely mechanical tasks can also be realized under tensile and compressive stresses.
- the contact partner (retaining sleeve) can be carried out both with and without recording for a longitudinal water seal to the connector housing out. This connection can be made via the cable insulation, via the electrical conductor or even a combination of both.
- the contact partner according to the invention can be used in single- or multi-pole connectors, with multi-pin connectors one or more rows can be arranged.
- the electrical lines may be single lines, raster line cables, ribbon cables and the like. Depending on the geometric configuration of the electrical line and the geometric region of the connector housing, in which the line is guided, and also an optionally available sealing element is executed.
- the contact partner according to the invention can be advantageously produced in a stamping and bending process quickly and inexpensively from a corresponding sheet material one or more parts.
- FIGS. 1 and 2 show, as far as shown in detail, a contact partner 1 for a connector for use in the electrical connection sector, preferably in automotive engineering.
- the contact partner 1 is arranged at the end of an electrical line 2.
- the contact partner 1 has an elongated U-profile (locking part A), for the design of a primary and secondary locking tabs 3, 4 and for receiving and guiding a complementary connector element and a transverse connection of the two side profiles for fixing the electrical line ends and embodiment of a coding device to to ensure a directed insertion.
- the part (A) has a primary locking tab 3 and according to the invention also has a secondary locking tab 4.
- the electrical line 2 is inextricably mechanically connected to the contact partner 1.
- a standard single conductor sealing crimp 6 can be present, which has the effect that the outer jacket of the line 2 is sealed longitudinally watertight with respect to the contact partner 1 if necessary by means of individual conductor sealing.
- the single conductor sealing crimp 6 can thus be present, which causes the outer jacket of the line 2 to be sealed longitudinally watertight with respect to the contact partner 1.
- a sealing element 7 is arranged, wherein the sealing element 7 is fixed by the Einzelleiterdichtungscrimp 6 on the outer jacket of the line 2.
- the sealing element 7 is made of an elastically deformable material (such as rubber, elastomer or the like) and has a smooth continuous surface in the longitudinal direction or a rib shape, as in FIG. 1 is shown.
- the cross section of the sealing element 7 is larger than the cross section of the contact partner 1, so that the sealing element 7 is permanently pressed together when inserted into the contact chamber.
- FIG. 2 shows the same contact partner 1 as in FIG. 1 , but in a symbolic view in a housing and a marking of Einzelleiterdichtungscrimp 6, which can be omitted in non-sealed version.
- the reference numeral 8 denotes a connector housing having a contact chamber for receiving the contact partner 1.
- FIG. 3 shows the same contact partner 1 in section with a complementary plug connector element 9 and with an electrical conductor 10 of the electrical line 2 and the locking tab 3 and the pressure element (B).
- the electrical conductor of the electrical line 2 is made flat or has been processed so that it has a flat shape (this is necessary, for example in round conductors). That is, in this case, the electric conductor has been compacted from a round conductor. If the electrical line 2 is a ribbon cable, this is not necessary.
- the thus prepared or correspondingly designed end region of the electrical conductor thus also forms the contact or contact region to the complementary connector element 9 (for example, a contact pin).
- the contact partner 1 as described above, a means for the realization of connectors in electrical connection technology, especially for use in the automotive sector for the highest requirements ready, in which the previous contradictions between low insertion forces and high contact normal forces have been brought into line. This means that in the presented connector mechanical and electrical requirements are performed independently. Thus, a cost-effective and freely configurable solution is still available.
- the retaining sleeve according to the invention can be designed so that it is suitable for both non-sealed and sealed versions with Einzelleiterdichtungsing.
- the retaining sleeve is designed for a primary and a secondary lock in the plastic housing of the connector.
- the pressure spring (generally pressure element) is integrated for the contact normal force transmission in the retaining sleeve.
