Abstract

Eine Vorrichtung zur abisolierfreien Herstellung eines Anschlusses an ein Flachkabel (4), das wenigstens eine abgeschirmte Datenleitung (8) mit einer oder mehreren Adern (9) aufweist. Sie hat hierfür wenigstens einen Anzapfkontakt (10). Letzterer ist an seinem freien Ende elektrisch leitend ausgebildet und an seinem Flankenbereich mit einer Isolation (27) ausgerüstet, um einen Kurzschluss zwischen der zu kontaktierenden Ader (9) und der Abschirmung (27) zu vermeiden. Der Anzapfkontakt (10) ist unverdrehbar in einer Andruckplatte (6) angeordnet, so dass die Herstellung des Anschlusses durch Kraftbeaufschlagung der Andruckplatte (6) zum Flachkabel (4) hin und ein damit einhergehendes Eindringen des Anzapfkontakts (10) in das Flachkabel (4) erfolgt. Der Anzapfkontakt (10) weist an seinem freien Ende eine Schneide (30) auf, die in Längsrichtung des Flachkabels (4) oder leicht geneigt zu dieser verläuft, und er verbreitert sich, im Querschnitt senkrecht zur Schneide (30) gesehen.

Figure imgaf001
A device for stripping-free production of a connection to a flat cable (4), which has at least one shielded data line (8) with one or more wires (9). It has for this purpose at least one tap contact (10). The latter is designed to be electrically conductive at its free end and equipped at its flank region with an insulation (27) to avoid a short circuit between the wire to be contacted (9) and the shield (27). The tap contact (10) is arranged non-rotatably in a pressure plate (6), so that the production of the terminal by applying force to the pressure plate (6) to the flat cable (4) out and a concomitant intrusion of the tap contact (10) in the flat cable (4). he follows. The tapping contact (10) has at its free end on a cutting edge (30) which extends in the longitudinal direction of the flat cable (4) or slightly inclined thereto, and it widened, seen in cross-section perpendicular to the cutting edge (30).
