Definitions

  • the invention relates to a coding device for avoiding mishaps in connectors, wherein the connectors each have a plug body in which electrical contacts and coding elements are arranged, and wherein the electrical contacts are arranged in openings on both sides of the coding.
  • Such an encoder is needed to prevent mismating within a system of like connectors.
  • an encoder for two mutually complementary plugs is known, one of which is provided with at least one first coding element and the other with at least one complementary thereto second coding, wherein at least one of the plug comprises a housing with a clip-on over which at least one of the coding elements is arranged ,
  • the shows EP-A-0 354 582 a multi-pin connector having a device for coding the two appliance connectors, prismatic Codierchane are provided, on the one hand have a six- or octagonal section and on the other hand, an approximately half-section.
  • the halved cross section in each case to plug side, so that only with a corresponding angular position of the two a plug is possible.
  • a coding for a unilaterally connected rotatable or pivotable socket and pin header provided.
  • the coding device is arranged near the pivot point of the plug-in device, and is provided on one side with a pin and on the other side with a pin receptacle, which engage in the closing of the plug-in device.
  • each coding part is mounted in a turntable and locked within predetermined pivoting ranges in a trained as a sprocket Codteililfact.
  • the DE 25 32 885 A1 shows an encryptable connector, consisting of two relative to each other uniquely performed complementary parts, each with at least one encryption device.
  • the encryption element embodied as a block in different forms has in each case complementary mating sides in the form of matching bevels, each of which can be used in a chamber provided for this purpose of the female and male connector part.
  • each coding pin comprises a plurality of predetermined, about the Codierchanachse rotated angular positions in a receptacle of a connector component insertable mounting portion and a Codierabites which can be overlapped with a Codierabrough a second Codierroches.
  • the invention is based, to ensure a simple, unmistakable and codable plug for a connector of plug-in hybrid connector having power contacts as well as signal contacts the task.
  • each plug body has a slot opening in which a sheet-like coding element can be inserted, that the two coding elements have mutually interlocking coding structures on the plug side, which ensure unmistakable plugging, and in that the coding structures aligned in the insertion direction of the coding elements have vertical, horizontal, oblique and curvilinear portions in different variations at their outer edges that abut each other with an exact fit.
  • the electrical contacts receiving the plug body is provided on the mating side with a slot opening into which the advantageous area-shaped coding elements are inserted and latched.
  • the outer edges of the coding abut each other during the mating process accurately.
  • the increased distance with the additional air gap contributes to a favorable signal separation.
  • the plug contacts and the coding structures of the coding elements are protected by a correspondingly formed metallic shielding sleeve surrounding the plug body.
  • a V-shaped polarization is formed in the shielding sleeve, which initially ensures a correct insertion position of the two connectors during insertion, while the complementary coding ensure that exactly these two connectors are correctly plugged together in a plurality of possible connectors.
  • the Fig. 1 shows a trained according to the so-called push-pull principle connector 1 in a side view.
  • the shielding sleeve 16 is arranged on a plug body 10 which receives the electrical contacts.
  • FIG. 2 is shown in an isometric view of the plug connector 1 matching mating connector 5, the plug body 10 is disposed in a flange 6.
  • three juxtaposed electrical contacts 28 are provided for a current / voltage transmission, as well as four other signal contacts 29, which are separated in pairs by an enlarged central distance recognizable.
  • the contacts are disposed within openings 26 and 27 in the plug body 10, 10 '.
  • a slot opening 12 is provided on the mating side, which is provided for receiving a planar coding element 20.
  • the rectangular, insulating plug body 10 is surrounded by a shielding sleeve 16, whose interface extends in a V-shaped, central groove 18 between the paired signal contacts 29.
  • the groove is initially provided for polarization for a correct connection of the two connectors 1, 5.
  • the coding element 20 may have different geometric shapes on its mating side. Possible are simple horizontally and vertically arranged outer edges, as well as oblique and curve-like shapes. It is only important that the outer edges provided for encoding during mating process accurately fit together to prevent mis-insertion of two connectors 1 and 5.
  • the coding element 20 is in each case inserted into the plug-side slot opening 12 and latched in the plug body 10 by means of latching hooks 24, the coding structures 22 protruding partially from the plug body.
  • plug body 10 is in addition to the slot opening 12 for the coding element 20, in each case a passage 13, provided for the two latching hooks 24.
  • the ends of the through-channels 13 each have a latching edge 15, on which the latching hooks 24 of the coding element 20 latch.
  • the locking edges 15 are formed in a recessed recess 14 of the rear plug body such, so that the latching hooks survive only minimally over the housing end.
  • the coding element 20 can be replaced by the latching hooks 24 are compressed, and the coding element from the passageways 13 and the slot opening 12 is pulled out.
  • the connector 2 which is normally formed with the flange housing 6, is provided at the rear with the printed circuit board 8, on which the current / voltage contacts 28, the signal contacts 29 and the connection pins 17 of the shielding sleeve 16 are soldered.
  • additional mounting pins 19 are provided, which are inserted into corresponding holes and hold the plug body to the soldering to the circuit board.
  • the Fig. 4 shows a plug connection between the push-pull connector 1 and the mating connector 5 in the flange 6, wherein only the coding of the two coding elements 20 and 20 'in the connector 2 and the connector 1 are authoritative shown here.
  • the coding structures 22, 22 ' protrude approximately centrally from each of the plug bodies 10, 10' and protrude into the respectively oppositely arranged part.
  • FIG. 5 are some surface-shaped embodiments for paired together coding elements 20, 20 'with the molded locking hooks 24, 24' are shown, which can have in principle by means of straight, vertical, horizontal, oblique and curved lines an arbitrary amount of matching coding structures 22, 22 '.
