Definitions

  • the invention relates to an electrical connector having a first housing part, with a second housing part and at least one, pivotally mounted on one of the two housing parts locking bracket made of metal, wherein two bearing pins and the second housing part two locking projections are formed on the first housing part, the locking bracket two locking legs and a handle connecting the locking legs together and the locking legs each having a bearing arm with a recess for a journal and a locking arm for engaging a locking projection.
  • the invention also relates to a locking bracket for locking two housing parts, in particular two housing parts of an electrical connector, with two locking legs and a locking leg connecting the handle together.
  • An initially described electrical connector is for example from the EP 1 691 454 A2 known.
  • the locking bracket is punched in one piece from a metal sheet and bent so that it is approximately U-shaped.
  • the U-back or base leg of the locking bracket forms a handle, while the two U-legs are designed as locking leg or locking brackets.
  • the locking legs each have a bearing arm with a bearing recess for the hinge pin arranged on the first housing part and a locking arm for engaging over locking pins which are arranged on the second housing part.
  • a similar connector is also from the DE 10 2004 061 046 B4 known. Also in this connector, the locking bracket is punched in one piece from a metal sheet and bent. In this locking bracket of the latching projection in the closed position cross locking arm is rigid, while the bearing arm is designed as a spring leg. Due to the fact that the known locking stirrups are punched out and bent from a metal sheet, the production of the locking stirrups is relatively simple and therefore only associated with low costs. A disadvantage, however, is that stamping edges are formed by the punching of the locking clip, through which it can come when locking to damage the locking projections on the second housing part.
  • a pivotally mounted on the spring element locking element is provided that slides when locking on the arranged on a housing part locking projection, wherein the locking projection rests in the end position of the locking bracket in a rounding on the locking element.
  • the present invention is therefore an object of the invention to provide an electrical connector or a locking bracket described above for two housing parts, in particular for two housing parts of an electrical connector, in which the aforementioned disadvantages are avoided. At the same time it should be ensured that a secure and permanent locking of the two housing parts is ensured by means of the locking bracket.
  • Such a trained plastic part can also be used in addition to prevent unwanted, independent pivoting of the locking bracket.
  • a press fit is formed between the recess in the second leg of the plastic part and the bearing pin on the first housing part, which ensures that the locking bracket can be pivoted only by applying a certain force.
  • the interference fit between the recess in the second leg of the plastic part and the bearing pin can be chosen so that the locking bracket on the one hand - without much effort - can be pivoted on the other hand, however, remains without a voluntary operation in its respective position.
  • the locking bracket can be particularly easily manufactured as a stamped and bent part.
  • the one-piece design of the locking bracket also increases its mechanical stability, so that at the same time simple production a robust and thus a secure locking ensuring locking bracket can be made available.
  • the Fig. 1 and 2 show an electrical connector 1, which has a housing base as a first housing part 2 and a housing cover as the second housing part 3.
  • a plurality of terminals connected to a terminal block or a contact insert may be arranged for connecting the individual wires of an electrical cable, which are not shown in the figures, since the present invention, the locking of the two housing parts 2, 3 concerns.
  • the in Fig. 3 separately shown locking bracket 4 has two opposing locking legs 11, 12 and a locking legs 11, 12 interconnecting handle 13, wherein the two locking legs 11, 12 each have a bearing arm 14 with a recess 15 for a bearing pin 5 and a locking arm 16 to overlap a locking projection 7 in the closed position of Have locking bracket 4.
  • the two approximately V-shaped locking legs 11, 12 are each formed so flexible that the locking legs 11, 12 can widen slightly when the locking bracket 4 from the in Fig. 1 shown opened position in the in Fig. 2 shown closed position is pivoted.
  • the two locking arms 16 engage over the corresponding locking projections 7 on the housing upper part 3, whereby the two housing parts 2, 3 are firmly connected to each other.
  • a rubber seal 17 is arranged in a formed in the first housing part 2 groove, which seals the two housing parts 2, 3 in the locked state against each other
  • two plastic parts 18 are arranged on the two locking legs 11, 12 of the locking bracket 4, each having a portion 19 which slides on pivoting of the locking bracket 4 in the closed position on the locking projections 7.
  • the section 19 is designed or arranged so that it covers the free end surface 20 of a locking arm 16, which would rub on pivoting of the locking bracket 4 in the closed position via a locking projection 7. This prevents wear of the surface of the locking projection 7 during pivoting of the locking clip 4 into the closed position, which could ultimately lead to the locking projection 7 being damaged or even severed.
  • This risk exists in particular when the locking projections 7 are made of a softer metal than the locking bracket 4, for example made of aluminum or plastic and when the locking bracket 4 is formed as a punched and bent part and thereby has rough or sharp punching edges.
  • the two plastic parts 18 are each formed approximately U-shaped, namely in each case two legs 22, 23 and a leg connecting the legs 22, 23 24 have.
  • a locking arm 16 covering portion 19 is formed.
  • the second leg 23 is corresponding to the recess 15 in the bearing arm 14 has a recess 25 for a bearing pin 5, so that when pivoting the locking bracket 4 from the open to the closed position, the two plastic parts 18 are pivoted about the bearing pin 5.
  • the recess 25 is formed as a slot, so that the plastic part 18 relative to the bearing journal in the vertical direction has a certain range of motion.
  • the transverse extent of the recess 25 is slightly smaller than the diameter of the journal, so that between the recess 25 and the bearing pin 5 a press fit is formed.
  • the interference fit between the recess 25 in the plastic part 18 and the bearing pin 5 is chosen so that the locking bracket 4 on the one hand by hand - without much effort - can be pivoted, on the other hand, however, remains without a voluntary operation in its respective position. An unwanted pivoting or "collapse" of the locking bracket 4 can be prevented.
  • the fixation of the plastic parts 18 in their position relative to the locking legs 11, 12 takes place except on the bearing pin 5 in particular by the fact that the locking bracket 4 two each laterally to a locking leg 11, 12 spaced bracket members 26 are formed.
  • the first leg 27 of the U-shaped bracket member 26 is connected via a connecting web 28 with the free end of the locking arm 16, wherein the bracket member 26 is bent by about 180 °, that the first leg 27 parallel to the locking arm 16 and the second leg 29th of the bracket element 26 is arranged parallel to the bearing arm 14.
  • the bracket element 26 is arranged so spaced from the locking leg 11, 12, that the plastic part 18 is held in the space between the bracket member 26 and the locking leg 11, 12.
  • the plastic part 18, which, with the exception of the portion 19 has substantially the same outer dimensions as a yoke member 26, with the first leg 22 as the first attachment region between the locking arm 16 and the first leg 27 and with the second leg 23 as a second attachment region between the Bearing arm 14 and the second leg 29 is arranged.
  • the portion 19 of the plastic part 18 is dimensioned so that it covers both the end surface 20 of the locking arm 16 and the corresponding surface 32 of the first leg 27 of the bracket member 26.
  • the portion 19 thus has a width which corresponds approximately to the sum of the width of the locking arm 16, the width of the first leg 27 and the distance between the locking arm 16 and the first leg 27.
  • an actuating opening 36 for an actuating tool in particular the tip of a screwdriver is formed .
  • the tip of a screwdriver in the actuation opening 36 can also by the thus extended lever arm a greater force to open or close a locking bracket 4 are applied.
  • the locking bracket 4 may be formed as a stamped and bent part, namely simply punched out of a metal part, in particular of a spring steel and then bent. From the Fig. 6 In addition, it can be seen that the locking bracket 4 is formed integrally in one piece, in particular, the bracket members 26 are each integrally connected via a connecting web 28, each with a locking arm 16 of a locking leg 11, 12.
