Definitions

  • the invention relates to an electrical connector according to the preamble of claim 1.
  • a conventional connector in the automotive sector for example, by the DE 94 19 446 U1 known.
  • Out DE 102 48 809 A1 is an electrical connector in the form of a vibration-stressed socket contact for producing an electrical connector in the automotive field known.
  • the electrical connector consists of a contact inner part and an over-spring.
  • the inner part itself comprises contact blades, which abut with a contact point on the counterpart, preferably a knife.
  • the inner contact part has at least three technological contact blades, each of the contact blades has at least one contact point for producing an electrical connector with a knife.
  • the free ends of the contact blades are based in the manufactured state of an electrical connector on support elements, which are formed as part of the over-spring.
  • Tin oxide is formed by fretting corrosion or the tin is rubbed.
  • Classical remedial measures against this contact wear caused by engine vibration or temperature cycling i. Fretting corrosion in tin-plated systems or abrasion in gold-plated or silver-plated systems are decoupling elements such as a metallic meander or looped copper ribbon, which are effective, but increase the contact cost and usually weaken the current carrying capacity (because of cross-sectional tapering) or in individual cases Increased contact normal force to improve the shaking, with the possible variation of the normal force is limited mostly by the plastic properties (yield point) of the Cu material of the contact springs (lamellae).
  • a plug contact with 6-finger contact (see. DE 10 2005 017 424 A1 ) provided in the control module, in which a pin of the nozzle module is inserted.
  • the nickel-plated and gold-plated 6-finger contact is pressed into a socket, which is provided for insulation (ie avoidance of short circuit) with a shrink tube and an insulating sleeve.
  • the electrically conductive connection is created starting from connecting bolts in the control module via the 6-finger contact, a solid conductor up to the magnet assembly and back.
  • the contact allows a reproducible mounting and dismounting of the control module and allows the actuation of the magnetic group in the nozzle module for injection.
  • the magnet assembly is fixed in the nozzle module and the socket in the control module.
  • the injector By adding a pressure booster in the fuel injector, the injector extends microscopically (about a few ⁇ m), pulling the pin out of the contact area. By injecting the pressure is released and the pin is pushed back into the contact area. Accumulated over the injection cycles and the running time, the plug contact covers a distance of one kilometer.
  • the gold surface of the known plug contact is abraded over the term down to the base material and in the base material. The gold surface has the task to protect the base material from oxidation and, due to its hardness, to reduce wear.
  • the purpose of the nickel layer is to prevent the diffusion of the less noble base material into the gold surface. If there is no gold surface, the risk increases that an oxide layer forms on the base material and the contact point (contact / solid conductor) becomes high-impedance. This can lead to the magnet assembly no longer being energized and therefore no injection possible. Due to the structural design of the fuel injector, the relative movement between solid conductor (pin) and plug contact can not be eliminated.
  • the service life is not limited by layer penetration (gold, tin, silver) or fretting corrosion, especially since no microcurrents are applied here.
  • German silver is a silver-white shiny alloy of 45-70% copper, 5-30% nickel, 8-45% zinc, possibly with admixtures of trace elements such as lead, tin or iron. It is characterized by special hardness and corrosion resistance because of the nickel content.
  • normal forces can be set in the range 2 to 16 N, ie approximately one order of magnitude higher than in the case of DE 10 2005 017 424 A1 known plug contact with 1N.
  • Increased insertion forces play no role due to industrial assembly instead of manual assembly with plugs.
  • a compact plug contact construction with a small length and a small diameter is also possible, so that, for example, a pin with a diameter of 1 mm can be contacted.
  • high contact forces contact normal forces
  • the electrical disadvantage (relatively poor conductivity) can be neglected, because usually only very short-term currents below 10 amps, clocked in the range of ⁇ s (to ms) occur, which only means very small RMS currents / equivalent currents of less than 1 ampere. Therefore, the disadvantageous conductivity does not lead to thermal overheating and thermal damage.
  • the additional voltage drop in the range of a few mOhm (about 20 mOhm theoretically) is negligible in relation to the voltage drops of the overall system and / or wiring harness, since the length of the inner contact part and the over-spring of the connector according to the invention only a few mm (about 4-9 mm ) is big.
  • the connector according to the invention offers the possibility of allowing a wear of ⁇ 0.2 mm per contact area without an oxide layer forming. Since there is no layer, the failure criterion "layer abrasion" is eliminated. By increasing the contact normal force per contact area by a factor of 10, it is possible to reduce the micro-movements and thus reduce the wear. In addition, the quality requirements can be met because with such high normal force extraneous layer thicknesses can be pushed through to keep the electrical contact resistance small and stable.
  • the connector according to the invention can also be used under diesel engine conditions, ie in engine oil, engine oil / water and engine oil / diesel / water environments.
  • the in Fig. 1 shown electrical connector 1 is designed as a female contact or circular contact and is used for electrically contacting a pin . 2
  • the electrical connector 1 comprises a contact inner part 3 for electrically contacting the pin 2, a surrounding the inner contact part 3 over spring 4 and a metal bushing 5.
  • the contact inner part 3 is made of nickel silver, preferably N18 (Wieland trade name), and in the illustrated embodiment as a longitudinally slotted round Sleeve formed, which has a plurality of inwardly directed contact fingers (lamellae) 6 and may be formed for example by a rolled-sheet metal part made of nickel silver.
  • the inner contact part 3 thus has no surface coating, in particular no gold, silver or tin coating.
  • the contact inner part 3 is clamped in the over-spring 4, which is made of stainless spring steel (eg 1.4310 with strength 1500 MPA).
  • the over-spring 4 in turn is mounted in the metal bushing 5, for example made of brass and clamped therein, wherein the clamping force is greater than the insertion force of the pin 2.
  • the metal bushing 5 is electrically connected via the over-spring 4 with the contact inner part 3 and in turn attached to the stripped end of an electrical line 7 .
  • the metal bush 5 is surrounded by an insulating sleeve 8 , and the electrical line 7 is covered with a shrink tube 9 .
  • the sheet thickness or wall thickness Due to the sheet thickness or wall thickness, the length of the contact fingers 6 and the width of the longitudinal slots, the contact pressure and the stiffness of the inner contact part 3 can be adjusted.
  • the over-spring 4 By superposition with the over-spring 4, the normal force of the contact fingers 6 can be massively increased and trimmed in the target area to compensate for both, both manufacturing tolerances and wear due to wear.
  • a round pin made of nickel silver with 1 mm diameter in the opening 10 of the metal bushing 5 and inserted between the contact fingers 6 of the contact inner part 3, against the return action of the over-spring. 4
  • Fig. 2 shows a fuel injector 20 with a nozzle module 21 and a control module 22, which the in Fig. 1 has shown connector 1.
  • the fuel injection is controlled by means of a solenoid valve (not shown) which is part of a magnet assembly 23 of the nozzle module 21.
  • the magnet assembly 23 has a solid conductor 24 which preferably extends to the control module 22 and also has nickel silver, the end of which, embodied as a pin 2, is plugged into the plug connector 1 in the control module 22.
  • the connector 1 offers the possibility of allowing a wear of ⁇ 0.2 mm per contact area without forming an oxide layer. Since there is no oxide layer, the failure criterion layer abrasion is eliminated.
