Definitions

  • the invention relates to a modular circular connector according to the preamble of claim 1.
  • Connectors are used, for example, in manufacturing plants to manufacture or solve complex cable connections between control units or cabinets and machine tools, where several control and supply lines are combined in a shielded cable.
  • the shields ensure trouble-free operation and must not be impaired at cable transition points such as plugs and sockets. Therefore, it is known to cover the transition points with screw caps so that the shield remains guaranteed, such as in your own DE 20 2005 010 113 U1 described.
  • Out DE 693 26 932 T1 are also known three-part compounds, however, the plug part is fully taken as the first third part rotationally fixed in a shielding sleeve.
  • round plug for the production of electrical line connections are known, for example from the German utility model documents 299 15 382 U1 and 299 15 381 U1 ,
  • the invention has for its object to develop a modular plug-in system that provides connection options for different housing variants of plugs, sockets, couplings or sockets and also allows connection chains. At the same time cost savings should be achieved without quality loss.
  • the general solution to this problem consists of a modular circular connector for connecting different housing variants or for forming connection chains for shielded, multipolar cable connections with different transmission tasks such as power supply and / or Signal transmissions.
  • the coupling parts such as plugs or sockets are shielding metallic hollow bodies which taper according to the invention in an advantageous manner to their contact faces within the sleeve and come into galvanic contact at their contact faces within the sleeve, so as to ensure a shield in each case, even if the sleeve Made of plastic, which is cost effective.
  • Embodiments of the invention are the subject of the dependent claims.
  • the new modular connector can according to a selected here to illustrate the invention example according to FIG. 1 consist of a multi-pin connector 10 and a gleichpoligen socket 12 and a trained as a sleeve Arretierstoff Biology 14.
  • the large-sized pins transmit, for example, a voltage of up to 630 volts and corresponding currents in connections, for example, between work machines and control cabinets. It should be noted that the polar image reproduced here has been chosen only as an example and that other polar patterns in any configuration can also be used within the scope of the invention.
  • plug 10 and socket 12 The construction of plug 10 and socket 12 is mirror images of each other almost equal. Therefore, hereinafter for both parts, plug 10 and socket 12, the modular connector, the same reference numbers in the Figures 2 and 5 used and described. Both parts, plug 10 and socket 12, have the contact side towards a multi-stepped metallic hollow body 16 which shields the entire transition between the plug 10 and socket 12 grounded, and it is also one of the objectives of the invention to ensure this metallic shield over the modular connector without interruption.
  • a metallic screw cap 18 is screwed onto the hollow body 10 with a frontal passage for a not shown, multi-core and shielded cable in a conventional manner, which is clamped and sealed by means of a plastic ring 20.
  • a plastic ring 20 Of the cable only one overhead wire 22 is shown, which ends in the plug 10 at the opposite end in a single pin S and in the socket 12 in a single socket B. Both the individual pins S and the individual sockets B are in them concentrically surrounding and insulating sleeves H, which pass in each hollow body 16 axially inwardly into a solid, substantially cylindrical insulating body 24 made of plastic and form a molded body with this, at the assembly of the cable side into the cylindrical inner shell of the associated metallic hollow body 16 can be inserted.
  • the earth or ground contacts S E and B E are mounted in the plug 10 and in the socket 12. These are not in the insulating body 24, but in a metallic projection 30 inwardly from the most inward stepped edge R S and R B of the metallic hollow body 16. This will both on the plug side and on the socket side, the ground or ground line electrically connected to the metallic hollow bodies 16. at the same time serves the projection 30 for securing the position of the insulating body 24 in the circumferential direction, that is, their position is in the interior of the metallic hollow body 16 by means of projections 30 corresponding recesses positionally secure, and also the exact alignment of the two pole faces to each other also secured.
  • An additional part orientation is effected by a lock pair 25 provided centrally in the insulating body 24.
  • FIGS. 1 . 6 and 7 shown locking center piece 14 in conjunction with the tapered to the contact sides of gradations of the two metallic body 16th
  • the Arretierstoff Anlagen 14 consists of two identical, tightly interconnected by an inner ring 38 rings 32 and 34, which can be rotated along a circumferential parting line 36 against each other by a limited angle. At each outer inner edge of each ring 32, 34 cams 40 are formed. In the example shown here, there are three mutually offset by 120 ° cam 40. In a starting position, which is recognizable from the outside by an equal position of two flattened markings 42 and 44 in the provided with a corrugation 46 outer surface of the Arretierstoff Swisses 14, are located in the Inside the Arretierstoff Swisses 14, the three cams 40 axially aligned with each other. In this position, the locking center piece 14 - as in FIG.
  • the individual sockets S, s and S individual sockets B, aligned with each other it makes sense the only applicable opening 62 clearly mark that on the visible after the complete axial mating outer surfaces of plug 10 and socket 12 each have a mark, for example in the form of a flattening A, which are aligned before mating with the markings 42 and 44 on the Arretierstoff mixes 14 must to allow the mating and fixing.
  • a special feature of the invention is that the Arretierstoff Anlagen 14 can be made of injection molded plastic instead of metallic turned parts and thus much cheaper and easier without losing the shielding effect.
  • the Arretierstoff Anlagen 14 can be made of injection molded plastic instead of metallic turned parts and thus much cheaper and easier without losing the shielding effect.
  • the fully assembled state namely within the locking center piece 14 - even if this is made of an insulating material - the circular edges R S and R B of connector 10 and socket 12 so close to each other that a galvanic connection is formed and a shield remains without gap.
  • a ground connection is ensured with pin S E and socket B E.
  • FIG. 8 It is indicated schematically that various connections between couplings, bushings D, angle plugs or sockets can be secured by means of a Arretierstoff Kunststoffs 14. It is also possible to form connection chains between adapters with alternating polar patterns in order to make various plug-in systems compatible. The connections can be safely used even with the highest levels of contamination, which are often unavoidable in manufacturing companies.
  • FIGS. 9 to 14 show a development of the invention.
  • the plastic insulating body 24 of the plug 10 engages in the assembled state on the insulating body 24 of the bush 12.
  • Both insulators 24 have an in FIG. 12 indicated Montagecodtechnik 46, the socket side from the outer circumference of the insulating 24 projecting cam and plug side formed on the inner circumference of the insulating body 24 incisions into which engage the cams.
  • Montagecodierung 46 and the two metallic hollow body 16 are provided with a mounting coding, which simultaneously forms a positive rotation and relieves the two insulating body 24 made of plastic.
  • the contact end face R s of the hollow body 16 of the plug 10 and the contact end face R b of the hollow body 16 of the bushing 12 are provided with axially aligned steps 52 which engage in one another in the assembled state of the two coupling parts. (see. FIG. 12 ).
  • FIGS. 9 to 14 Another special feature of the further education FIGS. 9 to 14 is that for securing the over the respective locking 60, 62, 64 produced, axial detent position between the plug 10 and sleeve 14 and sleeve 12 and sleeve 14 at least one reverse rotation is provided, which is formed in the embodiment of the sleeve 12.
  • a plastic ring 54 is placed on the metallic hollow body 16 of the bushing 12 and axially fixed by a projection 50. From the plastic ring 54 is a radially elastically deformable nose 56 axially.
  • This nose 56 is in the region of the opposite, open end face of the sleeve 14 associated with a recess 66 with a following in the direction of rotation of the sleeve 14 locking ramp 58.
  • a pushbutton 70 is formed in the region of the nose 56 on the plastic ring 54, which can be pressed radially by hand to push the nose 56 inwardly, so that it can be brought out of engagement with the flank 68.
  • the sleeve 14 can thus be rotated back into the starting position, in which the nose 56 engages in the recess 66, so that the sleeve 14 can be withdrawn from the hollow body 16 of the bush 12.
  • a nearly identical plastic ring 54 ' is also fixed on the hollow body 16 of the plug 10, but here has no push button 70 and no nose 56 and thus does not form a reverse rotation.
  • the two plastic rings 54 and 54 ' here have an additional marking function, which is that they point with different colors on different transfer tasks o. The like., For example, by a red plastic ring 54 indicates another pole number such as a blue plastic ring 54 or indicates whether the circular connector is for power or signal transmission or both.
