Definitions

  • the present invention relates to the field of electrical connectors. It relates to a connector according to the preamble of claim 1.
  • automotive connectors which are grouped under the name ARC (Automotive R adiofrequency C onnectors), and which are designed as HF connector family especially for telematics, multimedia, safety and security applications in automobiles and automobiles Trucks have been developed.
  • ARC Automotive R adiofrequency C onnectors
  • angle connectors in which the coaxial cable to be connected is usually introduced at 90 ° angled to the direction of insertion or connector axis in the connector.
  • Such angle connectors for the automotive sector for example, in the DE-A1-10 2004 041 809 or the DE-B3-103 39 965 disclosed.
  • the said connectors have to secure an inserted connector a locking mechanism that engages when plugged in and can be unlocked only by pressing a dedicated actuator.
  • a locking mechanism is for example in the above DE-A1-10 2004 041 809 described.
  • the locking device comprises a housed in a receiving space of the housing, extending in the insertion direction, transversely to the insertion direction elastically deflectable latching clip, which is elastically deflected to unlock by means of an attached to the housing actuator transversely to the direction of insertion. It is essential that the actuating element is arranged transversely to the plug-in direction next to the latching clip, and that the length of the actuating element in the plugging direction is smaller or approximately equal to the length of the latching clip. This allows a very compact and short housing that is easy to manufacture and assemble.
  • the latching clip is attached to the housing via extending in the insertion direction, transversely to the insertion direction elastically deflectable arms, and that the actuating element via a rocker with the latching clip engages in such a way that upon depression of the rocker by the actuator on one side of the rocker locking latch on the other side of the rocker is deflected elastically transversely to the direction of insertion.
  • the rocker is formed by two parallel, extending in the insertion direction rocker arms, which are supported on formed in the central region bearing lugs on a parallel to the direction of insertion bottom of the receiving space.
  • the receiving space is limited on the opposite side of the floor by a parallel to the floor extending ceiling, which also forms an outer wall of the housing, and that as an actuating element in the ceiling a transverse to Plug-in direction resiliently deflectable tongue is formed, wherein the formation of the actuating element in the ceiling two extending in the direction of insertion edge-side slots are provided, which extend from the rear end of the ceiling until well into the ceiling.
  • a preferred development of the invention is characterized in that the arms of the latching clip are arranged between the rocker arms, and that the latching clip are integrally formed with its arms, the rocker arms and the actuating element on the housing and part of a one-piece, preferably molded by injection molding, plastic housing ,
  • the housing and the receiving space have in particular a substantially rectangular cross-section.
  • the connector is preferably a coaxial connector, which is particularly intended for use in the automotive sector. He can also be an angled connector.
  • the connector 10 is preferably used for releasably connecting coaxial cables 26 in the automotive sector to couple signals up to frequencies in the GHz range in existing electronic devices (radio, mobile, GPS, etc.) or decoupled from the devices.
  • the connector 10 corresponds to an international standard and can be coded to avoid misconnections.
  • the connector 10 comprises a plastic housing 11 having a substantially rectangular cross-sectional profile.
  • the electrical connection part 12 is in a receiving space 21 open on both sides of the housing 11, a manually operable (releasable) locking device 13 is integrated with a hook-shaped element on (not shown in the figures) counterpart of the connector 10 cooperates.
  • the receiving space 21 has a substantially rectangular cross-section and is bounded below (towards the electrical connection part 12) by a bottom 23 extending in the direction of insertion.
  • the receiving space 21 is delimited by a ceiling 22 parallel to the floor, which at the same time forms an outer wall of the housing 11.
  • the locking device 13 comprises a in the receiving space 21 parallel to the insertion direction (longitudinal axis 32 in Fig. 2b ) lying transversely to the direction of insertion (from the bottom 23 away) elastically pivotable locking bracket 14 with a transverse to the direction of insertion front part that front flush with the receiving space 21 concludes. From the transverse front part of the locking bracket 14 run in the direction of insertion two parallel arms 20 and 20 'to the rear and are attached with its rear end to the bottom 23 of the receiving space 21 (molded). The transverse front part of the latching clip 14 connects the free ends of the arms 20, 20 'with each other and can be deflected transversely to the direction of insertion due to the elasticity of the arms 20, 20'.
  • the transverse front part of the latching clip 14 is rounded at the lower front edge and can slide on insertion of the connector 10 in its counterpart on the front slope of the hook-shaped element and engage the underlying paragraph.
  • the locking clip 14 is thereby bent transversely to the direction of insertion upwards and snaps back when snapped into its rest position.
  • the latching clip 14 In order to release the latching of the connector again, the latching clip 14 must be pivoted upwards again, so that it can slide back over the hook-shaped element when unplugged. This is done via an integrated into the ceiling 22 actuator 15, which can be pressed elastically down in the receiving space 21 in the manner of a spring tongue.
  • actuator 15 To form the actuating element 15, two edge-side slots 16, 17 extending in the direction of insertion 32 are provided in the ceiling 22, which extend from the rear end of the ceiling 22 far into the ceiling 22.
  • the actuating element 15 is connected via a rocker 18, 18 'with the latching clip 14 in such a way that (as in Fig. 2b indicated by the two directional arrows) when depressing the rocker 18, 18 'by the actuating element 15 on one side of the rocker 18, 18' of the latch bracket 14 on the other side of the rocker 18, 18 'deflects elastically transversely to the insertion direction.
  • the rocker is formed by two parallel rocker arms 18, 18 'extending in the plug-in direction, which are supported on the bottom 23 of the receiving space 21 via bearing lugs 19, 19' formed in the middle region on the underside.
  • the arms 20, 20 'of the latching clip 14 between the rocker arms 18, 18' are arranged. Both arm pairs 18, 18 'and 20, 20' have the same overall length and terminate within the receiving space 21 without overhanging at the ends. Together with the integrated into the ceiling 22 actuator 15 results in an exceptionally short and compact locking mechanism that allows a very short housing and housing is largely protected against damage and contamination.
  • the configuration of the locking device 13 shown in the figures allows, in particular, the locking latch 14 with its arms 20, 20 ', the rocker arms 18, 18' and the actuating element 15 to form the housing 11 directly. They are then part of a one-piece, preferably molded by injection molding, housing 11 made of plastic.
  • the housing 11 For assembling a plug connection to a coaxial cable 26, the housing 11 according to Fig. 2 snapped onto an (angled) outer conductor 24, in which an inner conductor 31 is arranged in isolation. This inner conductor 31 is connected via a plug connection with the inner conductor 27 of the coaxial cable 26.
  • the outer conductor 24 of the connector 10 is a Transition piece 30 is connected to the outer conductor 29 of the coaxial cable 26, which is fixed on the transition piece 30 by means of a compression sleeve 25.
  • the dielectric 28 located between the inner conductor 27 and the outer conductor 29 of the coaxial cable 26 is led far into the transition piece 30.
