Abstract

An electric plug connector includes a guide sleeve, a plug connector part attachable to the guide sleeve, a bayonet ring on the connector part for rotatably engaging with the guide sleeve to move between unlocked and locked positions, and a locking button arranged on the bayonet ring to slide with the ring as the ring moves. While the connector part is attached to the guide sleeve the ring locks the attachment by engaging with the guide sleeve when the ring is in its locked position. The button is displaceable relative to the guide sleeve between inactivated and activated positions. The button includes a latching hook and a pin that interact with the sleeve to enable the button to move between its inactivated and activated positions. The latching hook and the pin engage with the sleeve when the button is in its activated position to secure the locking of the attachment with the end of the pin engaged in a receptacle formed on the surface of the sleeve to prevent rotation of the bayonet ring.

Description

Elektrischer Steckverbinder Electrical connector
Die Erfindung betrifft einen elektrischen Steckverbinder mit einem ersten Steckverbinderteil, welches ein erstes Gehäuse mit elektrischen Kontaktelementen aufweist, mit einem zweiten Steckverbinderteil, welches ein zweites Gehäuse mit elektrischen Gegenkontaktelementen aufweist, mit einer Führungshülse, mit deren Endabschnitten das erste und das zweite Steckverbinderteil verbunden sind, und mit einem Bajonettring an dem ersten und/oder dem zweiten Steckverbinderteil zum Verriegeln wenigstens eines Steckverbinderteils an der Führungshülse.The invention relates to an electrical connector having a first connector part, which has a first housing with electrical contact elements, with a second connector part, which has a second housing with electrical mating contact elements, with a guide sleeve, with the end portions of the first and the second connector part are connected, and a bayonet ring on the first and / or the second connector part for locking at least one connector part to the guide sleeve.
Ein derartiger Steckverbinder ist aus der DE 198 30 672 A1 bekannt und ist beispielsweise zum Anschluß von Getriebesteuersystemen in Kraftfahrzeugen vorgesehen. Hierbei ist eine Steckbuchse als verriegelbares Steckverbinderteil ausgebildet. Eine besonders vorteilhafte Ausgestaltung eines solchen Steckverbinderteils zeigt die DE 198 30 671 A1.Such a connector is known from DE 198 30 672 A1 and is provided for example for connection of transmission control systems in motor vehicles. Here, a socket is designed as a lockable connector part. A particularly advantageous embodiment of such a connector part shows the DE 198 30 671 A1.
Die Verwendung eines Bajonettrings erlaubt ein schnelles und sicheres Verbinden zweier Steckverbinderteile bzw. eines Steckverbinderteils mit einer Führungshülse. Im Automobilbereich besteht im allgemeinen die Anforderung, Steckverbindungen durch zusätzliche Arretierungsmittel, die auch als Sekundärverrriegelung bezeichnet werden, gegen Trennung zu schützen. Für Steckverbinder, die durch eine lineare Bewegung ineinandergefügt und verrastet sind, ist hierzu zumeist ein in oder entgegen der Steckrichtung verschiebbarer Riegel vorgesehen, der in einer Verriegelungsstellung die Lage der die Primärverbindung herstellenden Rastelemente blockiert.The use of a bayonet ring allows a quick and secure connection of two connector parts or a connector part with a guide sleeve. In the automotive industry, there is a general requirement to protect connectors from separation by additional locking means, also referred to as secondary locking. For connectors which are interlocked and latched by a linear movement, this is usually a displaceable in or against the insertion direction latch provided which blocks the position of the primary connection producing latching elements in a locking position.
Es war die Aufgabe der Erfindung, eine an einem Steckverbinder durch einen Bajonettring ausgebildete Primärverriegelung auf einfache und kostengünstige Weise durch eine Sekundärverriegelung zu sichern. Diese Aufgabe wird erfindungsgemäß dadurch gelöst, daß am Umfang des Bajonettrings eine Verriegelungstaste verschiebbar angeordnet ist, die mindestens einen in Richtung auf die Führungshülse verschiebbaren Stift aufweist, welcher mit einem äußeren Oberflächenprofil der Führungshülse zusammenwirkt.It was the object of the invention to secure a formed on a connector by a bayonet ring primary lock in a simple and cost-effective manner by a secondary lock. This object is achieved in that a locking button is slidably disposed on the circumference of the bayonet ring, which has at least one displaceable in the direction of the guide sleeve pin which cooperates with an outer surface profile of the guide sleeve.
Die Verriegelungstaste läßt sich erst dann in ihre Endraststellung bringen, wenn sich der Bajonettring bereits in seiner Endraststellung befindet. Sobald sich die Verriegelungstaste in ihrer Endraststellung befindet, läßt sich die durch den Bajonettring hergestellte Primärverrastung nicht mehr lösen. Zum Lösen der Primärverrastung muß die Verriegelungstaste wieder in ihre Vorraststeilung gezogen werden.The locking button can only be brought into its final locked position when the bayonet ring is already in its final locked position. As soon as the locking button is in its final locked position, the primary locking mechanism produced by the bayonet ring can no longer be released. To release the Primärverrastung the locking button must be pulled back into their Vorraststeilung.
Dabei ergibt sich als weiterer Vorteil, daß anhand der Stellung derThis results in a further advantage that based on the position of
Verriegelungstaste sofort erkennbar ist, ob sich der Bajonettring in seiner Endraststellung befindet. Eine versehentlich unvollständige Primärverriegelung kann somit leicht vermieden werden.Locking button is immediately recognizable whether the bayonet ring is in its final locked position. An accidentally incomplete primary lock can thus be easily avoided.
Nachfolgend wird ein Ausführungsbeispiel der Erfindung anhand der Zeichnung näher erläutert.An embodiment of the invention will be explained in more detail with reference to the drawing.
Es zeigen:Show it:
Figur 1 eine Führungshülse, Figur 2 eine Verriegelungstaste,FIG. 1 shows a guide sleeve, FIG. 2 shows a locking button,
Figur 3 das Zusammenwirken von Bajonettring und Verriegelungstaste mit der Führungshülse in verschiedenen Verriegelungsstellungen. Die Figur 1 zeigt eine Führungshülse (7) eines elektrischen Steckverbinders, die im montierten Zustand zwei nichtdargestellte Steckverbinderteile miteinander verbindet.Figure 3 shows the interaction of bayonet ring and locking button with the guide sleeve in different locking positions. FIG. 1 shows a guide sleeve (7) of an electrical connector which, in the installed state, connects two non-illustrated connector parts to one another.
Die Befestigung eines ersten Steckverbinderteils an dem in der Figur oberen Endabschnitt der Führungshülse (7) erfolgt mittels einer Bajonettverriegelung. Die Anbindung des zweiten Steckverbinderteils am unteren Endabschnitt der Führungshülse (7) kann prinzipiell auf die gleiche Art erfolgen; das zweite Steckverbinderteil kann aber auch auf jede andere Weise, insbesondere durch eine Schraub- oder Rastverbindung, an der Führungshülse (7) angebracht sein oder sogar einstückig mit dieser verbunden sein.The attachment of a first connector part to the upper end portion of the guide sleeve (7) in the figure by means of a bayonet lock. The connection of the second connector part at the lower end portion of the guide sleeve (7) can be done in principle in the same way; But the second connector part can also be attached to the guide sleeve (7) in any other way, in particular by a screw or locking connection, or even be integrally connected thereto.
Die Führungshülse (7) besitzt die Form eines Hohlzylinders und weist auf ihrer Außenfläche ein angeformtes Oberflächenprofil auf. Zu diesem Oberflächenprofil gehören mehrere an einem Endabschnitt der Führungshülse (7) angeordnete, spiralförmig entlang der Außenseite geführte Längsschlitze (4), die bis zur Stirnkante (21 ) der Führungshülse (7) verlaufen und dort in Ausnehmungen enden, die jeweils einen Querschlitz (5) in der Stirnkante (21 ) ausbilden.The guide sleeve (7) has the shape of a hollow cylinder and has on its outer surface a molded surface profile. To this surface profile include several at one end portion of the guide sleeve (7) arranged, spirally guided along the outside longitudinal slots (4) which extend to the front edge (21) of the guide sleeve (7) and terminate there in recesses, each having a transverse slot (5 ) in the front edge (21) form.
Bei Verbinden eines, in der Figur 1 nicht dargestellten ersten Steckverbinderteils mit der Führungshülse (7), werden stiftförmige Anformungen an einem, zum ersten Steckverbinderteil gehörenden Bajonettring in die Querschlitze (5) eingefügt und durch Drehen des Bajonettrings entlang der Längsschlitze (4) geführt.When connecting a, not shown in the figure 1 first connector part with the guide sleeve (7), pin-shaped projections on one, belonging to the first connector part bayonet ring in the transverse slots (5) are inserted and guided by turning the bayonet ring along the longitudinal slots (4).
Der Bajonettring (8), der in einer Draufsicht in der Figur 3 dargestellt ist, weist hierzu einen die Führungshülse (7) übergreifenden Kragen auf, der auf seiner Innenseite die in die Längsschlitze (4) eingreifenden stiftförmigen Anformungen trägt. Die Längsschlitze (4) besitzen im Bereich ihrer unteren Endabschnitte jeweils eine Rastkante (6), so daß beim Drehen des Bajonettrings (8) das Erreichen der Endraststellung als Rastvorgang erkennbar ist.The bayonet ring (8), which is shown in a plan view in Figure 3, has for this purpose a guide sleeve (7) cross-collar, which carries on its inside the in the longitudinal slots (4) engaging pin-shaped projections. The longitudinal slots (4) have in the region of their lower end portions in each case a latching edge (6), so that when turning the Bayonettrings (8) reaching the final locked position is recognizable as a resting process.
Nachteilig ist, daß bisher allein diese Rastkante (6), neben den Kontaktkräften der elektrischen Verbindungselemente, die mechanische Sicherung zwischen dem ersten Steckverbinderteil (1 ) und der Führungshülse (7) herstellt. Da das erste Steckverbinderteil (1 ) und die Führungshülse (7) damit nur kraftschlüssig verbunden sind, ist nicht auszuschließen, daß sich diese Verbindung unter ungünstigen Umständen, etwa unter permanenten Schwingungsbelastungen im Motorraum eines Kraftfahrzeugs, lösen kann.The disadvantage is that so far only this locking edge (6), in addition to the contact forces of the electrical connection elements, the mechanical fuse between the first connector part (1) and the guide sleeve (7) produces. Since the first connector part (1) and the guide sleeve (7) are thus connected non-positively, it can not be ruled out that this connection under unfavorable circumstances, such as permanent vibration loads in the engine compartment of a motor vehicle, can solve.
Erfindungsgemäß ist daher eine Verriegelungstaste (9) vorgesehen, welche die Figur 2 in einer Einzelteildarstellung zeigt. Die Verriegelungstaste (9) besteht aus einer Betätigungsplatte (14) und zwei rechtwinklig dazu angeordneten Seitenwänden (15), deren Form so beschaffen ist, daß die betätigte Verriegelungstaste (9) möglichst gut am Umfang des Bajonettrings (8) anliegt.According to the invention therefore a locking button (9) is provided, which shows the figure 2 in a single part illustration. The locking button (9) consists of an actuating plate (14) and two perpendicular thereto arranged side walls (15) whose shape is such that the actuated locking button (9) as good as possible on the circumference of the bayonet ring (8).
Auf der Innenseite der Verriegelungstaste (9) sind ein Rasthaken (11 ) und zwei Stifte (10) angeformt, welche mit dem Oberflächenprofil der Führungshülse (7) zusammenwirken. Dies ist im Detail in der Figur 3 dargestellt.On the inside of the locking button (9), a latching hook (11) and two pins (10) are formed, which cooperate with the surface profile of the guide sleeve (7). This is shown in detail in FIG.
Die Teilfiguren 3a und 3b zeigen den Bajonettring (8) in einer unverriegelten bzw. in der verriegelten Position bezüglich der Führungshülse, während sich die Teilfiguren 3b und 3c durch die Stellung der Verriegelungstaste (9) (betätigt/unbetätigt) unterscheiden. Die Teilfiguren 3a bis 3c zeigen jeweils eine Draufsicht auf den Bajonettring (8), zusammen mit einem innerhalb des Bajonettrings (8) angeordneten und mit dem Bajonettring (8) verbundenen Buchsengehäuse (3). Das Buchsengehäuse (3) dient zur Aufnahme von elektrischen Kontaktelementen (2), die mit Anschlußdrähten versehen sein können. Das Buchsengehäuse (3) und der Bajonettring (8) bilden damit zusammen das erste Steckverbinderteil (1 ) aus.The sub-figures 3a and 3b show the bayonet ring (8) in an unlocked or in the locked position relative to the guide sleeve, while the sub-figures 3b and 3c by the position of the lock button (9) (operated / unactuated) differ. The subfigures 3a to 3c each show a plan view of the bayonet ring (8), together with a within the bayonet ring (8) arranged and with the bayonet ring (8) connected to the socket housing (3). The female housing (3) serves to receive electrical contact elements (2) which are provided with connecting wires can. The socket housing (3) and the bayonet ring (8) thus form together the first connector part (1).
Der Bajonettring (8) weist einen umlaufenden Kragen auf, der die Außenseite der in der Figur 1 dargestellten Führungshülse (7) überragt. Das mit dem Bajonettring (8) verbundene Buchsengehäuse (3) taucht in die Öffnung der Führungshülse (7) ein. Bei einer Drehung des Bajonettrings (8) bewegt sich dieser entlang der spiralförmigen Bajonettführungen, die durch die in der Figur 1 dargestellten Längsschlitze (4) gebildet sind.The bayonet ring (8) has a circumferential collar which projects beyond the outside of the guide sleeve (7) shown in FIG. The socket housing (3) connected to the bayonet ring (8) dips into the opening of the guide sleeve (7). Upon rotation of the bayonet ring (8), it moves along the helical bayonet guides formed by the longitudinal slots (4) shown in FIG.
Hierdurch wiederum wird das mit dem Bajonettring (8) verbundene Buchsengehäuse (3) weiter in die Führungshülse (7) eingeschoben, so daß die Buchsenkontaktelemente (2) mit komplementär geformten Gegenkontakten eines mit der Unterseite der Führungshülse (7) verbundenen zweiten Steckverbinderteils in Verbindung kommen. Ein derart aufgebauter Steckverbinder ist soweit bereits aus der DE 198 30 672 A1 bekannt und dort in der Figur 1 in einer Explosionszeichnung dargestellt.As a result, in turn, the socket housing (3) connected to the bayonet ring (8) is pushed further into the guide sleeve (7), so that the socket contact elements (2) come into contact with complementary shaped mating contacts of a second connector part connected to the underside of the guide sleeve (7) , Such a connector constructed so far is already known from DE 198 30 672 A1 and shown there in Figure 1 in an exploded view.
An der Außenseite des Bajonettrings (8) ist die Verriegelungstaste (9) verschiebbar angeordnet, wobei durch eine Betätigung der Verriegelungstaste (9) die daran angeformten Stifte (10) sowie der Rasthaken (11) in Richtung auf die Führungshülse (7) verschoben werden können. Die Verschieberichtung steht in einem Winkel von ungefähr 45° zur radialen Richtung und bildet somit einen Kompromiß zwischen einer radialen Verschiebungsrichtung, die einen zu geringen Betätigungsweg erlauben würde, und einer tangentialenOn the outside of the bayonet ring (8), the locking button (9) is slidably disposed, whereby by actuation of the locking button (9) the molded thereon pins (10) and the latching hook (11) in the direction of the guide sleeve (7) can be moved , The displacement direction is at an angle of approximately 45 ° to the radial direction and thus forms a compromise between a radial displacement direction, which would allow too small actuating travel, and a tangential

Vorteilhafterweise bilden die freien Endabschnitte der Stifte (10) jeweils, bezogen auf die Ebene der Betätigungsplatte (14), schrägstehende Flächen (22) aus, deren Ebene parallel zur Tangentialebene am Berührungspunkt zwischen den Stiften und der Oberfläche der Führungshülse (7) verläuft, wodurch sich eine maximale Berührungsfläche zwischen den Stiften (10) und der Führungshülse (7) ergibt.Advantageously, the free end portions of the pins (10) each, based on the plane of the actuator plate (14), inclined surfaces (22), whose plane is parallel to the tangent plane at the point of contact between the pins and the surface of the guide sleeve (7), resulting in a maximum contact surface between the pins (10) and the guide sleeve (7).
Die unteren Abschnitte der Teilfiguren 3a bis 3c zeigen jeweils eineThe lower sections of the subfigures 3a to 3c each show one

Die Figur 3a zeigt den Bajonettring (8) unmittelbar nach dem Einsetzen in die Bajonettführung, also in der noch unverriegelten Position. Wie aus der zugehörigen Schnittzeichnung hervorgeht, liegt in dieser Position die vordere Rastnase (13) des an der Verriegelungstaste (9) angeformten Rasthakens (11 ) auf einem vergleichsweise flachen Abschnitt der Stirnkante (21 ) der Führungshülse (7) auf. Hierdurch kommt die mittlere Rastnase (12) des Rasthakens (11 ) an einer am Bajonettring (8) angeformten Kante (19) zur Anlage, wodurch die Verriegelungstaste (9) nicht in Richtung auf die Führungshülse (7) verschoben werden kann. Auch ein Abschnitt (18) des Oberflächenprofils (17), der durch einen Abschnitt der erhabenen Umrandung eines Längsschlitzes (4) an der Führungshülse (7) gebildet ist, verhindert eine Verschiebung der Verriegelungstaste (9) in Richtung auf die Führungshülse (7). Die Verriegelungstaste (9) ist somit zunächst in ihrer Ausgangsposition unverschiebbar festgelegt. In der Stellung, welche die Figur 3b zeigt, ist der Bajonettring (8) nach einer Drehung um 90° im Uhrzeigersinn in der Bajonettführung endverrastet. Die Lage des Bajonettrings (8) relativ zur Führungshülse (7) ist hier gut an der Positionsveränderung des Drehhebels (16) erkennbar. Der Drehhebel (16) dient darüber hinaus als Betätigungshilfe, speziell zur Kraftverstärkung beim Verrasten des Bajonettverschlusses. Wie die zugehörige Schnittzeichnung zeigt, kommt die vordere Rastnase (13) des Rasthakens (11 ) nun auf einem erhöhten Abschnitt (23) der Stirnkante (21 ) der Führungshülse (7) zur Anlage. Hierdurch wird der Rasthaken (11 ) insgesamt angehoben, so daß auch die mittlere Rastnase (12) über das Niveau der Kante (19) gehoben wird, wodurch die Verriegelungstaste (9) in Richtung auf die Führungshülse frei verschiebbar wird.FIG. 3a shows the bayonet ring (8) immediately after insertion into the bayonet guide, ie in the still unlocked position. As can be seen from the associated sectional drawing, in this position, the front latching lug (13) of the latching hook (11) formed on the latching hook (11) on a comparatively flat portion of the end edge (21) of the guide sleeve (7). As a result, the middle locking lug (12) of the latching hook (11) abuts against an edge (19) formed on the bayonet ring (8), whereby the locking button (9) can not be displaced in the direction of the guide sleeve (7). Also, a portion (18) of the surface profile (17), which is formed by a portion of the raised edge of a longitudinal slot (4) on the guide sleeve (7), prevents displacement of the locking button (9) in the direction of the guide sleeve (7). The locking button (9) is thus initially immovably fixed in its initial position. In the position shown in FIG. 3b, the bayonet ring (8) is finally locked in the bayonet guide in a clockwise direction after being rotated by 90 °. The position of the bayonet ring (8) relative to the guide sleeve (7) is well recognizable here by the change in position of the rotary lever (16). The rotary lever (16) also serves as an actuating aid, especially for gaining power when locking the bayonet lock. As the associated sectional drawing shows, the front locking lug (13) of the latching hook (11) now on a raised portion (23) of the end edge (21) of the guide sleeve (7) for conditioning. As a result, the latching hook (11) is raised as a whole, so that the middle latching lug (12) above the level of the edge (19) is lifted, whereby the locking button (9) is freely displaced in the direction of the guide sleeve.
Durch Druck auf die Betätigungsplatte (14) kann die Verriegelungstaste (9) nun in Richtung der Führungshülse (7) verschoben werden, wodurch die Innenseite der Betätigungsplatte (14) auf der Außenwand des Bajonettrings (8) zur Anlage kommt. Damit ist eine korrekt gesetzte Sekundärverriegelung und damit auch die zuvor erfolgte fehlerfreie Primärverbindung derBy pressing the actuating plate (14), the locking button (9) can now be moved in the direction of the guide sleeve (7), whereby the inside of the actuating plate (14) on the outer wall of the bayonet ring (8) comes to rest. This is a correctly set secondary lock and thus the previously made error-free primary connection of

Die Figur 3c zeigt die Verriegelungstaste (9) in ihrer Endstellung. Hierbei greift der Endabschnitt eines an der Verriegelungstaste (9) angeformten Stiftes (10) in eine taschenförmige Aufnahme (20) ein, welche durch das Oberflächenprofil der Führungshülse (7) in diesem Bereich ausgebildet ist. Hierdurch wird der Bajonettring (8) relativ zur Führungshülse (7) arretiert. Die taschenförmige Aufnahme (20) ist ebenso wie der erhöhte Abschnitt (23) der Stimkante(21 ) der Führungshülse (7) zur Verdeutlichung auch in der Darstellung der Figur 1 bezeichnet worden.FIG. 3c shows the locking button (9) in its end position. In this case, the end section of a pin (10) integrally formed on the locking button (9) engages in a pocket-shaped receptacle (20) which is formed by the surface profile of the guide sleeve (7) in this area. As a result, the bayonet ring (8) is locked relative to the guide sleeve (7). The pocket-shaped receptacle (20) as well as the raised portion (23) of the end edge (21) of the guide sleeve (7) have also been designated in FIG. 1 for clarity.
Die Figur 3c zeigt weiterhin, daß die Verriegelungstaste (9) durch eine doppelte Rastverbindung gesichert ist, die einerseits durch die Kante (19) am Bajonettring (8) und die mittlere Rastnase (12) am Rasthaken (11 ) derFIG. 3c further shows that the locking button (9) is secured by a double latching connection which is secured on the one hand by the edge (19) on the bayonet ring (8) and the middle latching lug (12) on the latching hook (11)
Verriegelungstaste (9) und andererseits durch den erhöhten Abschnitt (23) an der Führungshülse (7) und die vorderen Rastnase (13) gebildet ist, wodurch ein unbeabsichtigtes Lösen der Sekundärverriegelung ausgeschlossen ist.Locking button (9) and on the other hand by the raised portion (23) on the guide sleeve (7) and the front latching lug (13) is formed, whereby an accidental release of the secondary latch is excluded.
Lediglich durch kräftiges Zurückziehen der Verriegelungstaste (9) über die doppelte Rastverbindung hinaus kann die Sekundärverriegelung gelöst werden. Erst danach können die verbundenen Steckverbinderteile voneinander getrennt werden. Only by vigorous retraction of the locking button (9) on the double locking connection addition, the secondary lock can be solved become. Only then can the connected connector parts be separated from each other.
