Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a device for contacting and fixing an electrical component, preferably in a motor vehicle, in a substantially flat region of a carrier element.
  • the invention relates to a contact device for use in motor vehicle construction, with which a component within a working step both mechanically and electrically connectable to its support base, wherein the operation of the device is designed for example according to the bayonet principle.
  • Generic devices are known, inter alia, in motor vehicles for use in wear parts for which replacement during vehicle life is likely. This applies, for example, for light bulbs used in rear-emitting luminaires, which are equipped with a bayonet base for low-effort and tool-free change.
  • the publication DE 101 44 549 C1 discloses an arrangement consisting of a steering wheel and a torsion module, which, however, is primarily concerned with a technical simplification of assembly and not with the attachment and contacting of an electrical component.
  • the publication DE 102005 046545 A1 discloses a signaling device, in particular a signaling column, in which, however, no electrical component to be fastened to a carrier element from one side is provided.
  • the object is achieved by a device for contacting and fixing an electrical component, in particular in a motor vehicle, in a substantially flat region of a support element, wherein the device has a plurality of brackets and wherein the brackets for unilateral, at least tejl us introduction are provided in at least one recess of the support member.
  • the invention therefore proposes a device which opens up a fast and uncomplicated assembly even for such applications. It is not a priority to the component exchange; in the foreground is the easier handling of the support base.
  • the invention is directed to the mounting of an electric motor on a base board for installation in a vehicle meter, wherein the electric motor, for example, serves the pointer drive.
  • the electric motor is relatively bulky. It is therefore desirable to be able to connect this component to the circuit board separately from the other parts, which are usually fastened in a common soldering process. According to the invention, this can be done, for example, without tools.
  • the electrical component according to a preferred embodiment of a preferably circular base carrying a plurality of cross-section after roughly U-shaped brackets, in particular evenly distributed over a circumference or even (to avoid incorrect mounting or a mandatory installation position to guarantee) are not evenly attached to the base.
  • These brackets make a mechanical and electrical contact to contact tongues, which are formed by recesses in the base structure, for example, by first moving the base according to the bayonet principle translationally to the base structure and then rotated, whereby all brackets at the same time from a first position into which they have entered through recesses in the basic structure, into one second position in the same plane, based on the basic structure, and thereby enclose the reeds.
  • a contact force is achieved which ensures a secure electrical connection, it being preferred to form the brackets metallic, whereby each bracket can provide electrical contact, but need not, if so no need exists.
  • a first relative movement between the electrical component and the carrier element substantially parallel to the surface normal of the substantially flat region of the carrier element and a second Relative movement is provided substantially parallel to the flat portion of the support member, wherein preferably the second relative movement is provided as a rotational movement.
  • the second relative movement between the electrical component and the carrier element not to be rotational, but for example substantially translational (ie for example in the case where the entire electrical component is displaced parallel to the carrier element relative to the carrier element).
  • a latching is provided by means of at least one latching element.
  • a latching projection protrudes from the clamp shape, which cooperates with a small recess in the base structure or the carrier element, whereby a locking against the reversal of the rotary movement (or the second relative movement) is created.
  • each clip is associated with a recess or that the clips have a shoulder and two Have leg or that the legs are provided wavy.
  • the reduction of the stability of the carrier element by the recesses is largely reduced (because not only a large and therefore the stability in many cases greatly reducing recess, but a plurality of the stability of the support element not essential decreasing recesses is provided) and that the brackets can reliably ensure both the mechanical and the electrical connection of the electrical component to the support element.
  • a contact tongue is essentially a material region of the carrier element which is provided in direct manner for mechanical connection to the clamps. Such a material region corresponds, for example, to the region of the carrier element encompassed by the clamps in the clamping seat.
  • the good contacting or electrical connection is ensured in the device according to the present invention, in particular also by the fact that in the region of the contact tongue, a contact surface may be provided, so that a reliable contacting is possible, for example by the aforementioned clamping seat.
  • the second relative movement corresponds to an at least partial insertion of the contact tongue between the legs of the clip or that this introduction is provided substantially perpendicular to the extension direction of the legs, starting from the shoulder of the clip or substantially parallel to the extension direction of the clip Leg is provided starting from the shoulder of the clip.
  • the clamps could also extend in a wedge shape at a substantially perpendicular to the direction of extension of the legs starting from the shoulder of the clip provided, so that the contact tongue is reliably detected by the clip.
  • Figure 1 shows schematically an embodiment of a mounting side of an electrical component.
  • Figure 2 shows schematically a perspective view of a clip of the device according to the invention in an enlarged view.
  • FIGS. 3 to 6 show the electrical component connected to the carrier element in different, partially perspective and partially enlarged views.
  • Figure 1 shows schematically a mounting side of an electrical component 1 based on its component base (also designated 1) with in the exemplary embodiment four attached thereto brackets 2. For reasons of clarity, the representation of the associated electrical component 1 has been omitted.
  • Figure 2 shows schematically a perspective view of one of the brackets 2 (in the isolated illustration), wherein a locking projection 3 can be seen, together with an advantageous for the spring action of the clip wave contour of the clip leg 4.
  • a contact tongue 6 (see. For example, Figure 3) between the legs 4 of the clip 2 is introduced.
  • the insertion of the contact tongue between the legs of the clip substantially corresponds to an insertion perpendicular to the extension direction of the legs from the shoulder of the clip (i.e., substantially parallel to the extension of the shoulder of the clip).
  • the (in the insertion) front end of the legs 4 is bent slightly or the clip is substantially wedge-shaped, so that, for example, snagging during the connection movement is avoided.
  • Figure 3 shows the device after completion of the joining movement;
  • the brackets sit completely on the contact tongues 6.
  • the component 1 (not visible in FIG. 3) is with a carrier element 9 both mechanically and electrically connected.
  • the latching projections 3 are in engagement with small recesses 8 and thereby secure against the release of the electrical component 1 from the support element.
  • FIG. 4 shows a detail of FIG. 3 enlarged. Visible is the base structure with a recess 5 for fitting the bracket 2 in the first phase of the (bayonet-like in the illustrated embodiment) joining movement. On the contact tongue 6 an electrically conductive contact surface 7 is superficially applied, which serves the electrical setting and thus contacting initially between the support member 9 and the bracket 2. The bracket 2 is in turn connected to corresponding contact points of the electrical component 1 - such as an electric motor - but this is not shown in the figures for the sake of simplicity.
  • the electrical component 1 - such as an electric motor - but this is not shown in the figures for the sake of simplicity.
