Definitions

  • the invention relates to a cable guide, in particular for a connector, and a connector with a cable guide.
  • connectors with a cable outlet, wherein the cable is in the longitudinal direction of the connector.
  • connectors are also known in which the cable outlet is oriented at right angles to the longitudinal direction of the connector.
  • Such connectors often have a coding that allows the insertion of the connector into an associated mating connector only in a predetermined orientation.
  • the orientation of the cable outlet in connectors with rectangular angled cable outlet is fixed, so that different types are needed here, in which the cable outlet is angled in different directions. These different types increase the number of different types of connectors to be kept. To achieve a different orientation of the cable outlet, the entire connector must be replaced.
  • the invention has for its object to provide a cable guide for a connector that allows universal usability of the connector together with the cable guide. Another object of the invention is to provide a connector which is universally applicable.
  • the cable outlet opening can be arranged both in the longitudinal direction and angled to the longitudinal direction of the connector.
  • the orientation of the outlet opening to the inlet opening can be adapted to the installation conditions, without different connectors are required.
  • the longitudinal central axis denotes an axis arranged in the center of the respective opening, which points in the longitudinal direction of a cable to be arranged in the opening.
  • the angle between the longitudinal center axis of the inlet opening and the longitudinal center axis of the outlet opening is at least from 0 ° to 90 ° variable.
  • the cable guide has a first element and a second element, wherein on one of the elements, the inlet opening and on the other element, the outlet opening is formed and wherein the two elements are rotatably mounted to each other about a rotation axis, wherein the rotation axis is perpendicular to the longitudinal center axes of the inlet opening and outlet opening.
  • the first element has a substantially cylindrical base body which is overlapped by the second element over a portion of its circumference.
  • the first element has a perpendicular to the longitudinal axis of the body extending through opening, which is flared on one side to a recess, wherein the recess extends over at least 90 ° of the circumference of the body of the first element.
  • the passage opening serves as a passage for the cable. The flared recess allows the cable to be led out of the first element in different directions.
  • the second element has a base body which is designed as a hollow cylinder, wherein the hollow cylinder is designed to be open over at least half of its circumference. Characterized in that the hollow cylinder is formed open over at least half of its circumference, the second element can be pushed over the first element. This allows easy installation.
  • the first element has at least one pin which projects into a receptacle in the second element, wherein the receptacle has an opening through which the receptacle in the radial direction is accessible to the axis of rotation for the pin.
  • the opening is slightly narrower than the pin, so that the second element can be clipped onto the first element.
  • the two elements can be fixed to each other in a simple manner.
  • a locking device is provided which locks the two elements in at least one predetermined angular position of the longitudinal center axes of the inlet opening and outlet opening to each other.
  • certain preferred positions of the inlet opening and the outlet opening can be predetermined to one another constructively.
  • the locking also ensures that a given angular position can not change independently.
  • the latching device has at least one latching tongue which is arranged on one of the elements and which protrudes in the latching position into a latching recess in the other element.
  • the latching tongue extends in the circumferential direction on the second element and the latching recess is formed in particular on the circumference of the first element.
  • the inlet opening is advantageously formed on the first element and the outlet opening on the second element.
  • the inlet opening refers to the opening which faces the connector.
  • the cable enters the inlet from the connector.
  • the outlet opening faces away from the connector.

  • the means are in particular designed as latching means. As a result, a cable guide can be easily fixed to a connector.
  • the cable guide has a grommet for fixing a cable protection tube which surrounds the outlet opening.
  • the cable guide can take over at the same time the function of fixing the cable protection hose.
  • the cable guide is made in particular of plastic. The plastic training allows easy production of the two elements, in particular by injection molding.
  • the cable guide has an inlet opening and an outlet opening for a cable, wherein the angular position of the longitudinal center axis of the inlet opening to the longitudinal center axis of the outlet opening is variable.
  • the cable guide makes it possible to lead away the cable exiting from the connector in different angular positions to the connector.
  • the angular position can be at already be adjusted mounted connector. So when fixing the connector to the cable, the direction in which the cable is to be led away from the connector, yet to be determined. All cables can be equipped with a single connector with cable routing, regardless of the direction in which the cable is to be led away from the connector. The angular position in which the cable is led away from the connector can then be adjusted later.
  • the cable guide is arranged rotatably about the longitudinal center axis of the inlet opening on the connector.
  • the rotatability of the cable guide on the connector in conjunction with the variable angular position of the inlet opening and outlet allows an almost arbitrary routing of the cable from the connector.
  • the cable guide is fixed to the connector via a latching connection. This results in a simple connection of the two components.
  • the cable guide can also be subsequently clipped to a connector.
  • a simple embodiment results when the latching connection has at least one latching hook, which is engaged in a circumferential groove. As a result, a rotation of the cable guide is ensured on the connector.
