Definitions
- the invention relates to a clip with which magnetic planar cores can be attached to printed circuit boards.
- planar cores there is the problem of mounting them in a predetermined position on a printed circuit board in such a way that, together with a coil prefabricated or printed on the printed circuit board, a magnetic component with narrow tolerances is obtained.
- Object of the present invention is to provide a reliable installation of planar cores on PCP circuit boards using an improved bracket.
- Out DE 88 09 122 U1 is a one-piece clamp known, which can snap into place by means of latching means on an edge of a bobbin.
- a bracket consisting of a) a bracket with a yoke and two bracket arms and b) consists of a bow-shaped spring clip with a bridge and two spring arms.
- the bracket and spring clip are each formed as separate but mutually engageable, bent stampings.
- the arms each have fixing elements on the ends, which allow a corresponding engagement.
- a first stamped part at the ends of its two arms each have a nose with a latching, while the second stamped part at the ends of the arms in each case has a matching Einrastbügel with an undercut, in which the Einrastbügel can engage.
- the first stamped part may be the spring clip and the second stamped part of the stirrups or vice versa.
- the spring arms can be pushed onto the hanger arms, wherein the spring arms spread apart until the latching arms slide over the lugs and engage in the undercut by the spring tension of the spread spring arms, wherein the ends of the spring arms jump back a little bit.
- the nose with the latch then prevents that interlocked bracket and spring clamp can be separated from each other by train again and are therefore securely fixed.
- a release of the connection is possible only after spreading the spring arms. But this counteracts the spring tension.
- a spring tension is ensured when the spanned by the ends of the spring arms opening width is less in the loose untensioned state than in the fixed state.
- the clip is then designed so that it follows the outer circumference of the two bodies in the connected state. Then the clip can rest against the bodies over a maximum length following the outer circumference.
- this outer circumference is substantially rectangular, so that the bracket and spring clip together are rectangular or individually U-shaped.
- At least one clip half that is to say a stamped part for fixing bodies, which have a different overall size and in particular a different overall height.
- a bracket with different sized spring clips can be combined to different height brackets.
- a clamp for example two or more latching clamps which are arranged at different longitudinal positions of the corresponding arm. It is also possible to provide several arranged at different longitudinal positions of the corresponding arm lugs and notches. The respective latching possibility closer to the yoke or the bridge can then be adjusted by simply pushing the bracket and spring clamp together. In this way, the same bracket can be used for at least two different attachment problems, the differently sized total scopes of the two bodies.
- a preferred application finds the clip as mentioned in the attachment of planar cores to printed circuit boards having printed coils. It even succeeds to fix three parts by the clip each other.
- the self-spreading guide the arms of the clip allows easy mutual attachment and thus easy connection of the two bodies by means of the clip.
- the clip is advantageously formed as a stamped part, in particular of a metal sheet.
- at least the spring clip made of spring steel is formed.
- both stamped parts are formed from the same material.
- the clip may be formed of stainless stainless steel or provided with a corrosion inhibiting coating.
- the undercut on the arm of a stamped part may be formed as arranged behind the latching indentation, recess or taper.
- the corresponding arm tapers in a limited section.
- a taper extends over the entire arm, so that the ends of the arms are T-shaped, while a recess centrally at the end of the arm as a framed on all sides opening of the arm is trained. Thereafter, the arm with unchanged width can continue towards the web, or taper. All undercuts have in common that there the corresponding arm has a pointing towards the rear web or yoke edge. After the latch has slid over the nose and locked, this is done fixing the two stampings on these edges.
- the lugs are attached to the bail arms and each have two outwardly facing guide edges over which the latch is guided when pushing, with the spring arms of the spring clip spread apart.
- the leading edges then extend from the end of the hanger arms to the yoke out towards the outside.
- An inwardly extending or kinking portion of the leading edge forms the latching.
- the tabs are attached to the spring arms and each have two inwardly facing guide edges which spread apart the spring arms when pushing the spring clip on the latch.
- the leading edges then have a to the web towards the formation of latching outwardly extending portion.
- the bevel of the spring arms even over the correspondingly extending leading edges thus ensures their spreading.
- the in the preferred example inwardly extending portion in extension of the leading edge - or in the alternative example outwardly extending portion - have a locking nipple, which fixes the latching clip after locking in this position.
- a latched clip that stands by pulling apart of the stamped parts each in the direction of web or yoke under tensile load, can not be solved by simply spreading the spring arms from the latch, since the locking nipple prevents spreading.
- the two stampings are particularly well fixed together and protected against accidental release of the clip connection.
- the spring arm is curved in the region of the latching strap outwards so that the respective latching clip when sliding the arms against each other so not with edge but with the rounded (inner) surface is guided over the leading edges of the nose. This prevents jamming and facilitates the postponement.
- the spring clamp is intended to set a spring action against the spreading apart of the spring arms.
- the spring clamp on a central region and two L-shaped curved in the spring arms expiring areas.
- the L-shaped bent portions are bent back towards the middle area. In this kink, part of the deformation takes place during spreading.
- the spring arms extend towards their ends to the outside, so that the opening width of the spring clip at the ends of the spring arms is greatest. The spreading of the spring arms and in particular this kink between the central region and L-shaped bent part also lead to the spring clip is after locking in the bracket under a spring tension that presses the web of the spring clip against the body to be fastened with the clip.
- the arms of which are preferably verkickt or bent inwards against the yoke.
- the bracket is also after being pushed onto a body by the required spreading apart of the hanger arms already under a certain bias, which cause a tight and firm concern of the hanger arms on the body and thus already allow a certain fixation.
- the clip according to the invention fixation of at least two bodies against each other or against a third body can be made.
- An advantageous arrangement is the clamp described above, a two-part magnetic planar core and a printed circuit board having a printed coil.
- the two halves of the two-piece planar core sit on either side of the circuit board above the printed coil on the circuit board.
- the circuit board on two openings, which are arranged on two opposite edges of the planar core.
- the clip can be guided so that it encompasses the two planar core halves.
- the bracket is attached from one side of the circuit board forth on the Planarkern that his bow arms point in the direction of the openings or are inserted into this.
- the spring clip is then attached from the other side of the circuit board forth on the Planarkern and the hanger arms that spring clip and bracket are engaged with each other.
- the clamp fixes the two halves of the planar core through the apertures and crosses the printed circuit board.
- the plugging does not require any special tools and can therefore be carried out in a simple yet nevertheless successful manner, even with a printed circuit board which has a high assembly density, leaving little or no space for applying a tool for fastening the clip.
- At least the yoke, the central region of the web and the Einrast Scheme of the arms at the Planarkern are firmly.
- the yoke and bridge can be widened in relation to the arms and thus present a larger contact surface with the bodies to be fixed.
- the circuit board has further openings in the region of the lower edges of the planar core, are inserted through the correspondingly formed parts of a Planarkernhclient and thus are in direct contact with the second Planarkernhclient. As a result, the magnetic circuit of the planar core is closed.
- a preferred use of the clip is the attachment of magnetic planar cores of types E, ER and EQ to printed coil printed circuit boards.
- the bracket With the clip can be dispensed with the gluing of the planar cores on the circuit board with the planar coil, since the bracket itself already allows a sufficiently strong and secure against loosening of the connection attachment of the planar cores. Thus, on the one hand eliminates the thermal stress that is otherwise required for curing the adhesive bond. Slipping while gluing is no longer possible.
- the core halves of the Planarkerne may for this purpose have corresponding guide grooves in which the clamp halves are held or guided.
- FIG. 1 shows a bracket BG and a spring clip FK in schematic cross-section.

Description
Die Erfindung betrifft eine Klammer, mit der magnetische Planarkerne an Leiterplatten befestigt werden können.The invention relates to a clip with which magnetic planar cores can be attached to printed circuit boards.
Bei Planarkernen besteht das Problem, diese in einer vorgegebenen Position auf einer Leiterplatte so zu montieren, dass zusammen mit einer auf der Leiterplatte vorgefertigten beziehungsweise gedruckten Spule ein magnetisches Bauelement mit engen Toleranzen erhalten wird. Dazu ist es insbesondere erforderlich, die Planarkerne positionsgenau und zuverlässig, das heißt fest und gegen unerwünschtes Verrutschen stabil zu befestigen. Dies wird nach dem Stand der Technik zum Beispiel dadurch erreicht, dass die Planarkerne auf der Leiterplatte aufgeklebt werden.In the case of planar cores, there is the problem of mounting them in a predetermined position on a printed circuit board in such a way that, together with a coil prefabricated or printed on the printed circuit board, a magnetic component with narrow tolerances is obtained. For this purpose, it is particularly necessary to secure the planar cores positionally accurate and reliable, that is firm and stable against unwanted slipping. This is achieved according to the prior art, for example, by adhering the planar cores to the printed circuit board.
Bekannt ist es auch, die Kerne über eine Klammer auf der Leiterplatte zu befestigen, die durch die Leiterplatte gesteckt am Kern einhakt beziehungsweise am Kern einrastet. Problematisch an dieser bekannten Klammer ist es jedoch, dass die Einrastung nicht stabil ist und die Zuverlässigkeit der Befestigung mit Hilfe der Klammer daher eingeschränkt ist.It is also known to attach the cores via a clamp on the circuit board, which hooks inserted through the circuit board to the core or snaps into the core. The problem with this known clip, however, is that the latching is not stable and the reliability of attachment by means of the clip is therefore limited.
Aufgabe der vorliegenden Erfindung ist es, eine zuverlässige Montage von Planarkernen auf PCP-Leiterplatten mit Hilfe einer verbesserten Klammer anzugeben.Object of the present invention is to provide a reliable installation of planar cores on PCP circuit boards using an improved bracket.

Die beiden Bügel sind identisch ausgebildet.This object is achieved by a clamp with the feature of claim 1. Advantageous embodiments of the invention can be found in further claims.

Diese Aufgabe wird durch eine Klammer mit dem Merkmal von Anspruch 1 gelöst. Vorteilhafte Ausgestaltungen der Erfindung sind weiteren Ansprüchen zu entnehmen.This object is achieved by a clamp with the feature of claim 1. Advantageous embodiments of the invention can be found in further claims.
Es wird eine Klammer angegeben, die aus a) einem Bügel mit einem Bügeljoch und zwei Bügelarmen und b) aus einer bügelförmigen Federklemme mit einem Steg und zwei Federarmen besteht. Bügel und Federklemme sind jeweils als separate aber gegenseitig ineinander einrastbare, gebogene Stanzteile ausgebildet. Dazu weisen die Arme an den Enden jeweils Fixierelemente auf, die ein entsprechendes Einrasten ermöglichen. So weist ein erstes Stanzteil an den Enden seiner beiden Arme jeweils eine Nase mit einer Einrastung auf, während das zweite Stanzteil an den Enden der Arme jeweils einen dazu passenden Einrastbügel mit einer Hinterschneidung aufweist, in der der Einrastbügel einrasten kann.It is specified a bracket consisting of a) a bracket with a yoke and two bracket arms and b) consists of a bow-shaped spring clip with a bridge and two spring arms. The bracket and spring clip are each formed as separate but mutually engageable, bent stampings. For this purpose, the arms each have fixing elements on the ends, which allow a corresponding engagement. Thus, a first stamped part at the ends of its two arms each have a nose with a latching, while the second stamped part at the ends of the arms in each case has a matching Einrastbügel with an undercut, in which the Einrastbügel can engage.
Die Zuordnung der Fixierelemente zu den beiden Stanzteilen umfasst beide Möglichkeiten. So kann das erste Stanzteil die Federklemme und das zweite Stanzteil der Bügel sein oder umgekehrt. In allen Fällen können die Federarme auf die Bügelarme aufgeschoben werden, wobei sich die Federarme aufspreizen, bis die Einrastbügel über die Nasen gleiten und durch die Federspannung der aufgespreizten Federarme in der Hinterschneidung einrasten, wobei der die Enden der Federarme wieder ein Stück nach innen springen. Die Nase mit der Einrastung verhindert dann dass die ineinander eingerasteten Bügel und Federklemme alleine durch Zug wieder voneinander getrennt werden können und daher sicher fixiert sind. Ein Lösen der Verbindung ist nur nach Aufspreizen der Federarme möglich. Dem wirkt aber die Federspannung entgegen. Eine Federspannung wird gewährleistet, wenn die durch die Enden der Federarme aufgespannte Öffnungsweite im losen ungespannten Zustand geringer ist als im fixierten Zustand.The assignment of the fixing elements to the two stamped parts includes both possibilities. Thus, the first stamped part may be the spring clip and the second stamped part of the stirrups or vice versa. In all cases, the spring arms can be pushed onto the hanger arms, wherein the spring arms spread apart until the latching arms slide over the lugs and engage in the undercut by the spring tension of the spread spring arms, wherein the ends of the spring arms jump back a little bit. The nose with the latch then prevents that interlocked bracket and spring clamp can be separated from each other by train again and are therefore securely fixed. A release of the connection is possible only after spreading the spring arms. But this counteracts the spring tension. A spring tension is ensured when the spanned by the ends of the spring arms opening width is less in the loose untensioned state than in the fixed state.
Mit der Klammer können zwei- oder mehrteilige Körper in einfacher Weise aneinander fixiert werden. Vorteilhaft ist die Klammer dann so ausgebildet, dass sie dem Außenumfang der beiden Körper im verbunden Zustand folgt. Dann kann die Klammer über eine maximale dem Außenumfang folgende Länge an den Körpern anliegen. Vorteilhaft ist dieser Außenumfang im Wesentlichen rechteckig, so dass auch Bügel und Federklemme zusammen rechteckig bzw. einzeln jeweils U-förmig ausgebildet sind.With the clamp two- or multi-part body can be fixed to each other in a simple manner. Advantageously, the clip is then designed so that it follows the outer circumference of the two bodies in the connected state. Then the clip can rest against the bodies over a maximum length following the outer circumference. Advantageously, this outer circumference is substantially rectangular, so that the bracket and spring clip together are rectangular or individually U-shaped.
Es können jedoch auch Körper mit anders geformten Außenumfang durch eine entsprechend geformte Klammer gegeneinander fixiert werden. Es ist auch möglich, dass die Klammer der Form des jeweiligen Außenumfangs nur abschnittsweise folgt. So können die Kanten des Außenumfangs der Körper beispielsweise auch abgerundet sein, während die Stanzteile eckig gebogen sind, oder umgekehrt.However, it is also possible to fix bodies with differently shaped outer circumference by a correspondingly shaped clamp against each other. It is also possible that the clip follows the shape of the respective outer circumference only in sections. For example, the edges of the outer circumference of the body may also be rounded, while the stamped parts are bent angularly, or vice versa.
Darüber hinaus ist es möglich, zumindest eine Klammerhälfte, also ein Stanzteil zur Fixierung von Körpern zu verwenden, die einen unterschiedlich großen Gesamtumfang und insbesondere eine unterschiedliche Gesamthöhe aufweisen. In diesem Fall kann ein Bügel mit unterschiedlich großen Federklemmen zu unterschiedlich hohen Klammern kombiniert werden.Moreover, it is possible to use at least one clip half, that is to say a stamped part for fixing bodies, which have a different overall size and in particular a different overall height. In this case, a bracket with different sized spring clips can be combined to different height brackets.
Auch ist es möglich, bei einer Klammer unterschiedliche Einrastpositionen vorzusehen, beispielsweise zwei oder mehr Einrastbügel, die an verschiedenen Längspositionen des entsprechenden Arms angeordnet sind. Möglich ist auch, mehrere an verschiedenen Längspositionen des entsprechenden Arms angeordnete Nasen und Einrastungen vorzusehen. Die jeweilige näher dem Joch oder Steg gelegene Einrastmöglichkeit kann dann durch einfaches weiter Übereinanderschieben von Bügel und Federklemme eingestellt werden. Auf diese Weise kann die gleiche Klammer für zumindest zwei unterschiedliche Befestigungsprobleme, die unterschiedlich dimensionierte Gesamtumfänge der beiden Körper aufweisen, eingesetzt werden.It is also possible to provide different latching positions in a clamp, for example two or more latching clamps which are arranged at different longitudinal positions of the corresponding arm. It is also possible to provide several arranged at different longitudinal positions of the corresponding arm lugs and notches. The respective latching possibility closer to the yoke or the bridge can then be adjusted by simply pushing the bracket and spring clamp together. In this way, the same bracket can be used for at least two different attachment problems, the differently sized total scopes of the two bodies.
Eine bevorzugte Anwendung findet die Klammer wie eingangs erwähnt bei der Befestigung von Planarkernen an Leiterplatten, die gedruckte Spulen aufweisen. Dabei gelingt es sogar, drei Teile durch die Klammer gegenseitig zu fixieren.A preferred application finds the clip as mentioned in the attachment of planar cores to printed circuit boards having printed coils. It even succeeds to fix three parts by the clip each other.
Die selbst spreizende Führung der Arme der Klammer ermöglicht ein einfaches gegenseitiges Aufstecken und somit ein einfaches Verbinden der beiden Körper mit Hilfe der Klammer.The self-spreading guide the arms of the clip allows easy mutual attachment and thus easy connection of the two bodies by means of the clip.
Die Klammer ist vorteilhaft als Stanzteil ausgebildet, insbesondere aus einem Metallblech. Vorteilhaft ist zumindest die Federklemme aus Federstahl ausgebildet. Vorteilhaft sind beide Stanzteile aus dem gleichen Material ausgebildet. Insbesondere kann die Klammer aus nicht rostendem Edelstahl ausgebildet oder mit einer korrosionsinhibierenden Beschichtung versehen sein.The clip is advantageously formed as a stamped part, in particular of a metal sheet. Advantageously, at least the spring clip made of spring steel is formed. Advantageously, both stamped parts are formed from the same material. In particular, the clip may be formed of stainless stainless steel or provided with a corrosion inhibiting coating.
Die Hinterschneidung am Arm des einen Stanzteils kann als hinter dem Einrastbügel angeordnete Einbuchtung, Ausnehmung oder Verjüngung ausgebildet sein.The undercut on the arm of a stamped part may be formed as arranged behind the latching indentation, recess or taper.
Bei einer Einbuchtung verjüngt sich der entsprechende Arm in einem begrenzten Abschnitt. Eine Verjüngung erstreckt sich über den gesamten Arm, so dass die Enden der Arme T-förmig ausgebildet sind, während eine Ausnehmung zentral am Ende des Arms als allseitig umrandete Durchbrechung des Arms ausgebildet ist. Danach kann der Arm mit unveränderter Breite weiter Richtung Steg verlaufen, oder sich verjüngen. Allen Hinterschneidungen ist gemeinsam, dass dort der entsprechende Arm eine nach hinten in Richtung Steg oder Joch weisende Kante aufweist. Nachdem der Einrastbügel über die Nase gerutscht und eingerastet ist, erfolgt das das Fixieren der beiden Stanzteile über diese Kanten.In a recess, the corresponding arm tapers in a limited section. A taper extends over the entire arm, so that the ends of the arms are T-shaped, while a recess centrally at the end of the arm as a framed on all sides opening of the arm is trained. Thereafter, the arm with unchanged width can continue towards the web, or taper. All undercuts have in common that there the corresponding arm has a pointing towards the rear web or yoke edge. After the latch has slid over the nose and locked, this is done fixing the two stampings on these edges.
In einer bevorzugten Ausführungsform sind die Nasen an den Bügelarmen befestigt und weisen je zwei nach außen weisende Führungskanten auf, über die der Einrastbügel beim Aufschieben geführt wird, wobei sich die Federarme der Federklemme auseinander spreizen. Die Führungskanten verlaufen dann vom Ende der Bügelarme zum Bügeljoch hin gesehen nach außen. Ein nach innen verlaufenden beziehungsweise abknickender Abschnitt der Führungskanten bildet die Einrastung aus.In a preferred embodiment, the lugs are attached to the bail arms and each have two outwardly facing guide edges over which the latch is guided when pushing, with the spring arms of the spring clip spread apart. The leading edges then extend from the end of the hanger arms to the yoke out towards the outside. An inwardly extending or kinking portion of the leading edge forms the latching.
In einer alternativen Ausführungsform der Klammer sind die die Nasen an den Federarmen befestigt und weisen je zwei nach innen weisende Führungskanten auf, die die Federarme beim Aufschieben der Federklemme über den Einrastbügel auseinander spreizen. Die Führungskanten weisen dann einen zum Steg hin zur Ausbildung der Einrastung nach außen verlaufenden Abschnitt auf. Die Anschrägung der Federarme selbst über die entsprechend verlaufenden Führungskanten sorgt so für deren Aufspreizen.In an alternative embodiment of the clip, the tabs are attached to the spring arms and each have two inwardly facing guide edges which spread apart the spring arms when pushing the spring clip on the latch. The leading edges then have a to the web towards the formation of latching outwardly extending portion. The bevel of the spring arms even over the correspondingly extending leading edges thus ensures their spreading.
In beiden Fällen kann der im bevorzugten Beispiel nach innen verlaufende Abschnitt in Verlängerung der Führungskanten - oder der im alternativen Beispiel nach außen verlaufenden Abschnitt - einen Rastnippel aufweisen, der den Einrastbügel nach dem Einrasten in dieser Position fixiert. Eine eingerastete Klammer, die durch Auseinander Ziehen der Stanzteile jeweils in Richtung zu Steg bzw. Joch unter Zugbelastung steht, kann dann durch einfaches Aufspreizen der Federarme nicht aus der Einrastung gelöst werden, da der Rastnippel ein Aufspreizen verhindert. In dieser Ausführung sind die beiden Stanzteile besonders gut aneinander fixiert und gegen unbeabsichtigtes Lösen der Klammerverbindung geschützt.In both cases, the in the preferred example inwardly extending portion in extension of the leading edge - or in the alternative example outwardly extending portion - have a locking nipple, which fixes the latching clip after locking in this position. A latched clip that stands by pulling apart of the stamped parts each in the direction of web or yoke under tensile load, can not be solved by simply spreading the spring arms from the latch, since the locking nipple prevents spreading. In this embodiment, the two stampings are particularly well fixed together and protected against accidental release of the clip connection.
In einer Ausführungsform ist der Federarm im Bereich des Einrastbügels so nach außen gekrümmt, dass der jeweilige Einrastbügel beim Aufschieben der Arme aufeinander so nicht mit Kante sondern mit der gerundeten (Innen-)Fläche über die Führungskanten der Nase geführt wird. Dies verhindert ein Verkanten und erleichtert das Aufschieben.In one embodiment, the spring arm is curved in the region of the latching strap outwards so that the respective latching clip when sliding the arms against each other so not with edge but with the rounded (inner) surface is guided over the leading edges of the nose. This prevents jamming and facilitates the postponement.
Die Federklemme soll dem Auseinanderspreizen der Federarme eine Federwirkung entgegen setzen. In einer dazu geeigneten Ausformung weist die Federklemme einen Mittelbereich und zwei L-förmig gebogene in die Federarme auslaufende Bereiche auf. Die L-förmig gebogenen Bereiche sind gegen den Mittelbereich nach hinten hin abgeknickt. In diesem Knick findet auch ein Teil der Verformung beim Spreizen statt. Vorteilhaft verlaufen die Federarme zu ihren Enden hin nach außen, so dass die Öffnungsweite der Federklemme an den Enden der Federarme am größten ist. Das Aufspreizen der Federarme und insbesondere dieser Knick zwischen Mittelbereich und L-förmig gebogenem Teil führen auch dazu, dass die Federklemme nach dem Einrasten im Bügel unter einer Federspannung steht, die den Steg der Federklemme gegen den mit der Klammer zu befestigenden Körper drückt. Gleichzeitig wird durch die Federspannung auf der anderen Seite auch das Joch des Bügels gegen diesen oder den zweiten zu befestigenden Körper gedrückt. Damit wird also gewährleistet, dass beide mit der Klammer verbundene Körper fest gegeneinander gedrückt werden und so auch in dieser Achse gegeneinander fixiert sind.The spring clamp is intended to set a spring action against the spreading apart of the spring arms. In a suitable shape, the spring clamp on a central region and two L-shaped curved in the spring arms expiring areas. The L-shaped bent portions are bent back towards the middle area. In this kink, part of the deformation takes place during spreading. Advantageously, the spring arms extend towards their ends to the outside, so that the opening width of the spring clip at the ends of the spring arms is greatest. The spreading of the spring arms and in particular this kink between the central region and L-shaped bent part also lead to the spring clip is after locking in the bracket under a spring tension that presses the web of the spring clip against the body to be fastened with the clip. At the same time by the spring tension on the other side and the yoke of the bracket against this or the second body to be fastened pressed. This ensures that both connected to the clamp body are pressed firmly against each other and are thus fixed in this axis against each other.
Anders beim Bügel, dessen Bügelarme vorzugsweise nach innen gegen das Bügeljoch abgekickt oder abgebogen sind. In dieser Ausführung steht auch der Bügel nach Aufschieben auf einen Körper durch das dazu erforderliche Auseinanderspreizen der Bügelarme bereits unter einer gewissen Vorspannung, die ein enges und festes Anliegen der Bügelarme am Körper bewirken und so bereits eine gewisse Fixierung ermöglichen.Unlike the bracket, the arms of which are preferably verkickt or bent inwards against the yoke. In this embodiment, the bracket is also after being pushed onto a body by the required spreading apart of the hanger arms already under a certain bias, which cause a tight and firm concern of the hanger arms on the body and thus already allow a certain fixation.
Mit der erfindungsgemäßen Klammer können Fixierung zumindest zweier Körper gegeneinander oder gegen eine dritten Körper vorgenommen werden. Eine vorteilhafte Anordnung die oben beschriebene Klammer, einen zweiteiligen magnetischen Planarkern und eine eine gedruckte Spule aufweisende Leiterplatte. Die beiden Hälften des zweiteiligen Planarkerns sitzen beiderseits der Leiterplatte über der gedruckten Spule auf der Leiterplatte auf. Dabei weist die Leiterplatte zwei Durchbrechungen auf, die an zwei einander gegenüber liegenden Kanten des Planarkerns angeordnet sind. Durch diese hindurch kann die Klammer geführt werden, so dass sie die beiden Planarkernhälften umgreift. Dazu ist der Bügel von einer Seite der Leiterplatte her so auf den Planarkern aufgesteckt, dass seine Bügelarme in Richtung der Durchbrechungen weisen oder in diese eingesteckt sind. Die Federklemme ist dann von der anderen Seite der Leiterplatte her so auf den Planarkern und die Bügelarme aufgesteckt, dass Federklemme und Bügel ineinander eingerastet sind. So fixiert die Klammer die beiden Hälften des Planarkerns durch die Durchbrechungen hindurch greifend an der Leiterplatte.With the clip according to the invention fixation of at least two bodies against each other or against a third body can be made. An advantageous arrangement is the clamp described above, a two-part magnetic planar core and a printed circuit board having a printed coil. The two halves of the two-piece planar core sit on either side of the circuit board above the printed coil on the circuit board. In this case, the circuit board on two openings, which are arranged on two opposite edges of the planar core. Through this, the clip can be guided so that it encompasses the two planar core halves. For this purpose, the bracket is attached from one side of the circuit board forth on the Planarkern that his bow arms point in the direction of the openings or are inserted into this. The spring clip is then attached from the other side of the circuit board forth on the Planarkern and the hanger arms that spring clip and bracket are engaged with each other. Thus, the clamp fixes the two halves of the planar core through the apertures and crosses the printed circuit board.
Das Aufstecken erfordert kein besonderes Werkszeug und kann daher in einfacher und dennoch bezüglich des Erfolgs sicherer Weise auch bei einer Leiterplatte durchgeführt werden, die eine hohe Bestückungsdichte aufweist, die wenig oder gar keinen Raum zum Ansetzen eines Werkzeugs für das Befestigen der Klammer belässt.The plugging does not require any special tools and can therefore be carried out in a simple yet nevertheless successful manner, even with a printed circuit board which has a high assembly density, leaving little or no space for applying a tool for fastening the clip.
In einer Ausführung liegen zumindest das Bügeljoch, der Mittelbereich des Stegs und der Einrastbereich der Arme am Planarkern fest an. Joch und Steg können gegenüber den Armen verbreitert sein und weisen so anliegend eine größere Kontaktfläche zu den zu fixierenden Körpern auf.In one embodiment, at least the yoke, the central region of the web and the Einrastbereich of the arms at the Planarkern are firmly. The yoke and bridge can be widened in relation to the arms and thus present a larger contact surface with the bodies to be fixed.
In einer weiteren Ausführung weist die Leiterplatte weitere Durchbrechungen im Bereich der Unterkanten des Planarkerns auf, durch die entsprechend ausgebildete Teile einer Planarkernhälfte hindurch gesteckt sind und so im direkten Kontakt mit der zweiten Planarkernhälfte stehen. Dadurch ist der magnetische Kreis des Planarkerns geschlossen ist.In a further embodiment, the circuit board has further openings in the region of the lower edges of the planar core, are inserted through the correspondingly formed parts of a Planarkernhälfte and thus are in direct contact with the second Planarkernhälfte. As a result, the magnetic circuit of the planar core is closed.
Eine bevorzugte Verwendung der Klammer ist die Befestigung von magnetischen Planarkernen der Typen E, ER und EQ an Leiterplatten mit gedruckten Spulen.A preferred use of the clip is the attachment of magnetic planar cores of types E, ER and EQ to printed coil printed circuit boards.
Mit der Klammer kann auf das Aufkleben der Planarkerne auf die Leiterplatte mit der Planarspule verzichtet werden, da die Klammer selbst bereits eine ausreichend feste und gegen ein Lösen der Verbindung sichere Befestigung der Planarkerne ermöglicht. Somit entfällt zum Einen die thermische Belastung, die sonst zum Aushärten der Klebeverbindung erforderlich ist. Ein Verrutschen während des Verklebens ist auch nicht mehr möglich. Die Kernhälften der Planarkerne können dazu entsprechende Führungsnuten aufweisen, in denen die Klammerhälften gehalten bzw. geführt werden.With the clip can be dispensed with the gluing of the planar cores on the circuit board with the planar coil, since the bracket itself already allows a sufficiently strong and secure against loosening of the connection attachment of the planar cores. Thus, on the one hand eliminates the thermal stress that is otherwise required for curing the adhesive bond. Slipping while gluing is no longer possible. The core halves of the Planarkerne may for this purpose have corresponding guide grooves in which the clamp halves are held or guided.

Die darunter gezeigte Federklemme FK bildet den zweiten Teil der Klammer und besteht aus einem Metallstreifen, der einen Steg ST aufweist und der beidseitig unter Ausbildung von Federarmen FA abgebogen ist. An den Enden der Federarme ist jeweils ein Einrastbügel EB angeordnet, der eine Hinterschneidung HS aufweist.The spring clip FK shown below forms the second part of the clip and consists of a metal strip which has a web ST and which is bent on both sides to form spring arms FA. At the ends of the spring arms in each case a latch EB is arranged, which has an undercut HS.
Bügel BG und Federklemme FK sind insbesondere als gebogene Stanzteile aus einem Stahlblechstreifen und vorzugsweise aus Federstahl gefertigt. Die Nase N des Bügels BG weist zumindest eine Führungskante FU auf, die ein einfaches Aufschieben der Federklemme FK ermöglicht. Der Einrastbügel wird beim Aufschieben der Federklemme FK durch Bewegung in X-Richtung über die Führungskante FU geführt, wobei aufgrund der Abschrägung der Führungskante FU die Federarme FA der Federklemme FK in Spreizrichtung SR auseinandergedrückt werden. Sobald der Einrastbügel EB über die Nase gerutscht ist, wird die Aufspreizung der Federarme durch die als Rückstellkraft wirkende Federwirkung rückgängig gemacht und die Nase kann in der Hinterschneidung HS der Federklemme FK einrasten.Bracket BG and spring clip FK are made in particular as bent punched parts of a sheet steel strip and preferably spring steel. The nose N of the bracket BG has at least one leading edge FU, which allows a simple sliding of the spring clip FK. When the spring clip FK is pushed on, the latching clip is guided over the leading edge FU by movement in the X direction, the spring arms FA of the spring clip FK being forced apart in the spreading direction SR due to the bevel of the leading edge FU. Once the latch EB is slipped over the nose, the spreading of the spring arms is reversed by acting as restoring force spring action and the nose can engage in the undercut HS of the spring clip FK.
In
Die T-förmigen Einrastbügel gemäß den Ausführungen 2A und 2C wirken vorteilhaft mit einem Bügel BG zusammen, der zwei parallel angeordnete Nasen aufweist, die an beiderseits des T Mittelbalkens in die beiden Hinterschneidung HS eingreifen können. Die Ausführungen gemäß der
Mögliche Ausführungen von Nasen und Führungskanten sind in
Demgegenüber sind in der Ausführung gemäß
Auf der Leiterplatte LP sind beiderseits des Planarkerns PK zwei Durchbrechungen DB vorgesehen, die zum Durchstecken zumindest eines Teils der Klammer geeignet sind. Vorzugsweise weist die Leiterplatte weitere Durchbrechungen auf, durch die die Schenkel des E-förmigen Planarkerns geführt werden können. Durch direkten Stoßkontakt mit dem unteren Teil des Planarkerns PK kann so der magnetische Kreis durch beide Planarkernhälften geschlossen werden.On the circuit board LP two perforations DB are provided on both sides of the planar core PK, which is to plug through at least part of the clip are suitable. Preferably, the circuit board on further openings, through which the legs of the E-shaped planar core can be performed. By direct impact contact with the lower part of the planar core PK so the magnetic circuit can be closed by both Planarkernhälften.
Zum Befestigen mittels der erfindungsgemäßen Klammer wird zunächst der Bügel BG auf die obere Hälfte des Planarkerns PK aufgeschoben. Je nach Ausgestaltung können dabei die Bügelarme BA so lange sein, dass sie bereits durch die Durchbrechung DB geführt sind und auf der Unterseite wieder herausragen. Im nächsten Schritt wird nun von der Unterseite her die Federklemme FK so auf den Bügel BG aufgeschoben, dass der Einrastbügel über die Führungskante rutscht, die Federarme nach außen spreizt und schließlich hinter der Nase mit der Hinterschneidung des Einrastbügels fest einrastet.For fastening by means of the clip according to the invention, the bracket BG is first pushed onto the upper half of the planar core PK. Depending on the configuration, the yoke arms BA can be so long that they are already guided through the aperture DB and protrude on the underside again. In the next step, the spring clip FK is now pushed onto the bracket BG from the underside so that the latching clip slips over the leading edge, spreads the spring arms outwards and finally snaps firmly behind the nose with the undercut of the latching clip.
Die Erfindung ist nicht auf die in den Ausführungsbeispielen dargestellten Ausführungen beschränkt und kann im Rahmen der Ansprüche variiert werden. Insbesondere sind beliebige Unterkombinationen der einzelnen Merkmale möglich. Die Klammer ist auch nicht auf ein bestimmtes Material oder eine bestimmte Form beschränkt.The invention is not limited to the embodiments shown in the embodiments and can be varied within the scope of the claims. In particular, any sub-combinations of the individual features are possible. Also, the clip is not limited to a particular material or shape.
