Description

Die Erfindung betrifft ein Kabelendstück gemäß dem Oberbegriff von Anspruch 1.The invention relates to a cable end according to the preamble of claim 1.

Bisher hat sich kein Standard zur Anbindung von Hochvoltkabeln in Hybrid- und/oder Elektrofahrzeugen etablieren können. Häufig werden Hochvoltkabel nur prototypisch über Kabelschuhe angebunden und behelfsmäßig abgedichtet.So far, no standard for the connection of high-voltage cables in hybrid and / or electric vehicles has been able to establish. Frequently, high-voltage cables are only prototypically connected via cable lugs and makeshiftly sealed.

Der Nachteil liegt in mangelnder elektromagnetischer Abschirmung und mangelhafter Abdichtung der Hochvoltkabelbefestigung.The disadvantage lies in a lack of electromagnetic shielding and inadequate sealing of the high-voltage cable attachment.

In der Druckschrift US 2004/0106325 ist ein Verbindungsstück mit Abschirmung beschrieben, wobei sich an die kabelseitige Abschirmung, in der Kabel geführt werden, ein abschirmender Flanschabschnitt anschließt, welcher über eine Abdichtung an einem Gehäuse befestigt ist. Die Abschirmung ist mittels eines Stemmrings auf diejenige Seite des Flanschabschnitts aufgezogen, der der Abdichtung und dem Gehäuse gegenüberliegt. Die Abschirmung endet daher (in Verlaufsrichtung der Kabel) an dem Stemmring und somit bereits an der Seite des Flanschabschnitts, der den Kabeln zugewandt ist.In the publication US 2004/0106325 is described a connector with shield, wherein the cable-side shield, are guided in the cable, a shielding flange portion connects, which is attached via a seal to a housing. The shield is mounted by means of a Stemmrings on that side of the flange portion, which is opposite to the seal and the housing. The shield therefore ends (in the direction of the cable) on the Stemmring and thus already on the side of the flange portion, which faces the cables.

Aufgabe der vorliegenden Erfindung ist somit ein Kabelendstück mit guter elektromagnetischer Abschirmung und zuverlässiger Abdichtung.Object of the present invention is thus a cable end with good electromagnetic shielding and reliable sealing.

Die Aufgabe wird durch ein Kabelendstück mit den Merkmalen des Anspruchs 1 gelöst. Vorteilhafte Weiterbildungen der Erfindung ergeben sind aus den Unteransprüchen, wobei auch Kombinationen und Weiterbildungen einzelner Merkmale miteinander denkbar sind.The object is achieved by a cable end with the features of claim 1. Advantageous developments of the invention will become apparent from the dependent claims, wherein also combinations and further developments of individual features are conceivable with each other.

Ein erfindungsgemäßes Kabelendstück umfasst eine Schirmhülse, auf die das Schirmgeflecht des Kabels aufgezogen ist. Zusätzlich umfasst das Kabelendstück eine Crimp-Hülse. An einer ersten Stelle, der ersten "Crimp-Stelle", ist die über dem Schirmgeflecht und der Schirmhülse liegende Crimp-Hülse derart vercrimpt, dass dadurch Schirmhülse und Schirmgeflecht elektrisch leitend miteinander verbunden sind. An einer zweiten Crimp-Stelle, an der der Außenmantel des Kabels nicht abgetrennt ist, ist die Crimp-Hülse mit dem Kabelaußenmantel vercrimpt ist. Die Schirmhülse reicht hierbei nicht bis in den Bereich der zweiten Crimp-Stelle, sie reicht nur bis zu dem Bereich, in dem der Kabelaußenmantel abgetrennt ist.A cable end piece according to the invention comprises a shielding sleeve, onto which the shielding braid of the cable is mounted. In addition, the cable end piece comprises a crimp sleeve. At a first point, the first "crimping point", is the crimping sleeve overlying the screen braid and shielding sleeve crimped in such a way that the shielding sleeve and shielding braid are thereby electrically connected to one another. At a second crimp location where the outer jacket of the cable is not severed, the crimp sleeve is crimped to the outer cable jacket. In this case, the shielding sleeve does not extend into the region of the second crimping point; it extends only to the region in which the outer cable sheath has been severed.

Der Vorteil dieses Kabelendstücks liegt darin, dass aufgrund der Abschirmung die Elektromagnetische Verträglichkeit (EMV) gewährleistet ist. Durch die doppelte Vercrimpung ist der Kabelaußenmantel mechanisch angebunden, was für die erforderliche Zugentlastung sorgt. Das Kabelendstück ist zudem extrem kompakt aufgebaut, umfasst wenige Bauteile und ist daher kostengünstig herstellbar.The advantage of this cable end is that due to the shielding the electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) is guaranteed. Due to the double crimping, the cable outer sheath is mechanically connected, which provides the required strain relief. The cable end is also extremely compact, includes few components and is therefore inexpensive to produce.

Entsprechend einer bevorzugten Ausführungsform des Kabelendstücks trägt die Schirmhülse eine Umweltdichtung. Dies kann besonders bevorzugt durch einen O-Ring realisiert werden, der in eine Nut eingesetzt ist.According to a preferred embodiment of the cable end piece, the shielding sleeve carries an environmental seal. This can be realized particularly preferably by an O-ring which is inserted into a groove.

Dadurch wird die Abdichtung beim Anschließen des Kabelendstücks wesentlich verbessert.As a result, the seal is significantly improved when connecting the cable end.

Zusätzlich kann die Schirmhülse gemäß einer weiteren bevorzugten Ausführungsform des Kabelendstücks eine Schirmanbindung tragen. Dies kann besonders bevorzugt durch einen EMV-Dichtungsring realisiert werden, der in eine Nut eingesetzt ist.In addition, according to a further preferred embodiment of the cable end piece, the shielding sleeve can carry a shield connection. This can be realized particularly preferably by an EMC sealing ring which is inserted into a groove.

Dadurch werden die EMV-Eigenschaften des Hochvoltanschlusses weiter verbessert.This further improves the EMC characteristics of the high-voltage connection.

Entsprechend einer bevorzugten Ausführungsform des Kabelendstücks ist in der Schirmhülse eine Nut vorgesehen, in der ein Befestigungselement zur Arretierung des Kabelendstücks an einem Gehäuse zu liegen kommt. Als Befestigungselement kann bevorzugt ein Befestigungsclip dienen.According to a preferred embodiment of the cable end piece, a groove is provided in the shielding sleeve, in which a fastening element for locking the cable end piece comes to rest on a housing. As a fastener may preferably serve a mounting clip.

Diese Ausführungsform bietet den Vorteil, dass eine dauerhafte Befestigung des Kabelendstücks am Gehäuse gewährleistet ist.This embodiment has the advantage that a permanent attachment of the cable end piece is ensured on the housing.

Das Kabelendstück ist gemäß einer weiteren bevorzugten Ausführungsform mit einem Kunststoff umspritzt. Als Kunststoff ist insbesondere Silikon geeignet. Durch die Form der Kunststoffumspritzung kann die Kontaktfläche zum Gehäuse definiert werden. Die Lage der Kontaktfläche bestimmt die Eindringtiefe des Kabelendstücks in das Gehäuse.The cable end piece is encapsulated with a plastic according to another preferred embodiment. As a plastic silicone is particularly suitable. Due to the shape of the plastic extrusion, the contact surface can be defined to the housing. The position of the contact surface determines the penetration depth of the cable end into the housing.

Dadurch ist eine zusätzliche Dichtungsschicht des Kabelendstücks gegeben. Insbesondere für den Bereich des Kabelendstücks, der nach dem Anschließen an das Gehäuse außerhalb des Gehäuses verbleibt, ist diese Ausführungsform sehr empfehlenswert.As a result, an additional sealing layer of the cable end piece is given. In particular, for the region of the cable end piece, which remains after connection to the housing outside the housing, this embodiment is highly recommended.

Entsprechend einer bevorzugten Ausführungsform umfasst das Kabel zwei oder mehrere Leitungen. Das Kabel ist somit ein zwei- oder mehrgliedriges Hochvoltkabel. Ein zweigliedriges Kabel kann insbesondere eine Plus- und eine Minus-Leitung umfassen. Der Mantel einer einzelnen Leitung wird als Leitungsmantel bezeichnet.According to a preferred embodiment, the cable comprises two or more lines. The cable is thus a two- or mehrgliedriges high-voltage cable. A two-part cable may in particular comprise a plus and a minus line. The jacket of a single line is referred to as a cable jacket.

Durch das Zusammenfassen mehrerer Leitungen in einem Kabel werden EMV-Abschirmungen und gegebenenfalls Dichtungen und/oder Kunststoffumspritzungen gespart.By combining several lines in one cable, EMC shielding and possibly seals and / or plastic encapsulation are saved.

Die Kontaktierung des Leitungsendes oder der Leitungsenden des Kabelendstücks mit einem oder mehreren Anschlüssen im Gehäuse kann entsprechend einer weiteren bevorzugten Ausführungsform über einen oder mehrere gecrimpte Kabelschuhe erfolgen.The contacting of the cable end or the cable ends of the cable end with one or more terminals in the housing can be done according to a further preferred embodiment of one or more crimped cable lugs.

Diese im Inneren des Gehäuses befindliche Anschlussgestaltung ist einfach und zweckmäßig. Zusammen mit einem bereits beschriebenen Befestigungselement ist die Anbindung des Hochvoltkabels an das Gehäuse stabil und zuverlässig. Die Verbindung kann auch wieder gelöst werden, wodurch im Falle eines defekten Kabels nur das Kabel ausgetauscht werden muss, das Gehäuse aber weiterverwendet werden kann.This connection design located inside the housing is simple and convenient. Together with a fastener already described, the connection of the high-voltage cable to the housing is stable and reliable. The connection can also be released again, whereby in the case of a defective cable, only the cable needs to be replaced, but the housing can be reused.

Beim erfindungsgemäßen Verfahren zur Herstellung eines Kabelendstücks wird der Kabelaußenmantel im Endbereich des Kabels abgetrennt. Eine Crimp-Hülse wird auf den Kabelaußenmantel aufgeschoben. Eine Schirmhülse wird auf einen oder mehrere Leitungsmäntel aufgesteckt, so dass sie alle Leitungen des Kabels umgibt. Das Schirmgeflecht des Kabels wird auf die Schirmhülse aufgezogen. Die Crimp-Hülse wird auf das Schirmgeflecht und die Schirmhülse aufgezogen. Schirmhülse und Schirmgeflecht werden durch Vercrimpen der Crimp-Hülse an einer ersten Stelle elektrisch leitend miteinander verbunden. Die Crimp-Hülse wird an einer zweiten Stelle mit dem Kabelaußenmantel vercrimpt. Das Vercrimpen kann vorteilhaft als doppelter Rundcrimp ausgeführt werden.In the method according to the invention for producing a cable end piece, the cable outer sheath is cut off in the end region of the cable. A crimp sleeve is pushed onto the outer cable sheath. A shielding sleeve is attached to one or more conduit sheaths so that it surrounds all lines of the cable. The shield braid of the cable is drawn onto the shielding sleeve. The crimp sleeve is mounted on the screen braid and the shielding sleeve. The shielding sleeve and shielding braid are electrically connected to one another by crimping the crimping sleeve at a first location. The crimp sleeve is crimped at a second location with the outer cable sheath. The crimping can advantageously be carried out as a double round crimp.

Der Vorteil dieses Herstellungsverfahrens liegt darin, dass es mit wenigen Bauteilen auskommt und daher kostengünstig ist.The advantage of this manufacturing method is that it manages with few components and therefore is inexpensive.

Entsprechend einem bevorzugten Herstellungsverfahren wird das Kabelendstück mit Kunststoff, besonders bevorzugt Silikon, umspritzt.According to a preferred manufacturing method, the cable end piece with plastic, particularly preferably silicone, overmolded.

Bei einem weiteren bevorzugten Herstellungsverfahren wird die Schirmhülse mit mindestens einer Nut versehen für eine Umweltdichtung, eine Schirmanbindung und/oder ein Befestigungselement im Gehäuse.In a further preferred production method, the shielding sleeve is provided with at least one groove for an environmental seal, a shield connection and / or a fastening element in the housing.

Beim erfindungsgemäßen Verfahren zur Montage eines Kabelendstücks wird das Kabelendstück in eine dafür vorgesehene Gehäuseöffnung gesteckt. Anschließend wird das Kabelendstück mittels des Befestigungselements am Gehäuse befestigt und der bzw. die Kabelschuh(e) der Leitung(en) im Inneren des Gehäuses angeschraubt.In the method according to the invention for mounting a cable end piece, the cable end piece is inserted into a housing opening provided for this purpose. Subsequently, the cable end is fastened by means of the fastening element to the housing and screwed or the cable lug (s) of the line (s) inside the housing.

Der Vorteil dieses Montageverfahrens liegt in der leichten Montierbarkeit, die in nur drei Prozessschritten (Kabelendstück einstecken, Befestigungselement montieren und Kabelschuh anschrauben) durchgeführt wird.The advantage of this assembly method lies in the ease of assembly, which is carried out in only three process steps (insert cable end, mount fastener and screw on cable lug).

The cable end piece (1) is then fastened to the housing by means of a fastening element (8), and finally each cable lug (5) is screwed inside the housing.

In Fig. 1 ist die Schnittfläche A-A markiert. Den Querschnitt des Kabelendstücks (1) entlang dieser Schnittfläche A-A zeigt Fig. 2. Links ist die Kunststoffumspritzung (4) dargestellt, die den Kabelaußenmantel (10) umschließt. Der Kabelaußenmantel (10) umschließt das Schirmgeflecht (11) des Kabels. Innerhalb des Schirmgeflechts (11) liegen die beiden Leitungen (3), von denen eine Leitung (3) mit dem Leitungsmantel (13) dargestellt ist. Weiter rechts ist eine Crimp-Hülse (12) dargestellt, deren linker Teil einen Teil des Kabelaußenmantels (10) umschließt. Die Crimp-Hülse (12) ist ihrerseits vollständig von der Kunststoffumspritzung (4) umschlossen. Im rechten Teil befindet sich innerhalb der Crimp-Hülse (12) ein Hohlraum (14), da hier der Kabelaußenmantel (10) abgetrennt wurde. Weiter innen folgt das Schirmgeflecht (11) des Kabels, das auf die Schirmhülse (2) aufgezogen wurde. In die Schirmhülle (2) sind drei Nuten eingelassen, in die (von links nach rechts) der O-Ring (6), der EMV-Dichtungsring (7) und das Befestigungselement (8) zur Arretierung des Kabelendstücks (1) am Gehäuse angeordnet sind.
Nach rechts ragt eine Leitung (3), deren Leitungsmantel (13) am Leitungsende beim Vercrimpen mit einem Kabelschuh (5) abgetrennt wurde.In Fig. 1 the cut surface AA is marked. The cross section of the cable end piece (1) along this sectional area AA shows Fig. 2 , On the left is the plastic extrusion (4), which surrounds the outer cable sheath (10). The outer cable sheath (10) encloses the braided shield (11) of the cable. Within the shield braid (11) are the two lines (3), of which a line (3) with the cable jacket (13) is shown. Further to the right, a crimp sleeve (12) is shown, whose left part forms a part of the outer cable sheath (10). encloses. The crimp sleeve (12) is in turn completely enclosed by the plastic extrusion (4). In the right part is located within the crimp sleeve (12) has a cavity (14), since here the outer cable sheath (10) has been separated. Further inside follows the braided shield (11) of the cable, which was mounted on the shielding sleeve (2). In the shield shell (2) three grooves are recessed, in which (from left to right) of the O-ring (6), the EMC sealing ring (7) and the fastening element (8) for locking the cable end piece (1) arranged on the housing are.
To the right protrudes a line (3) whose cable sheath (13) at the end of the line during crimping with a cable lug (5) has been separated.

Fig. 3 stellt eine Vergrößerung eines Ausschnitts von Fig. 2 dar. Anhand dieses Ausschnitts soll das Verfahren zur Herstellung des hier dargestellten, vorteilhaften Kabelendstücks (1) beschrieben werden.
Als erstes wird der Kabelaußenmantel (10) im Endbereich des Kabels abgetrennt, dadurch entsteht der spätere Hohlraum (14). Eine Crimp-Hülse (12) wird von rechts auf den Kabelaußenmantel (10) aufgeschoben. Sodann wird von rechts eine Schirmhülse (2) auf die beiden Leitungsmäntel (13) aufgesteckt. Von links wird das Schirmgeflecht (11) des Kabels auf die Schirmhülse (2) aufgezogen, beziehungsweise wird die Schirmhülse (2) nach links "unter" das Schirmgeflecht (11) des Kabels geschoben. Anschließend wird von links die Crimp-Hülse (12) auf das Schirmgeflecht (11) des Kabels und die Schirmhülse (2) aufgezogen. Ein Hohlraum (14) verbleibt zwischen Crimp-Hülse (12) und Schirmgeflecht (11). Beim anschließenden Vercrimpen, z.B. durch einen doppelten Rundcrimp, werden die Bauteile umgeformt und der Hohlraum (14) verkleinert oder eliminiert. Durch zweifaches Vercrimpen der Crimp-Hülse (12) wird an einer ersten Crimp-Stelle (21) rechts die Schirmhülse (2) mit dem Schirmgeflecht (11) des Kabels elektrisch leitend miteinander verbunden und an einer zweiten Crimp-Stelle (22) links die Crimp-Hülse (12) mit dem Kabelaußenmantel (10) vercrimpt.
Das dargestellte Kabelendstück (1) wurde abschließend bis auf den äußeren Bereich der Schirmhülse (2) mit einem Kunststoff umspritzt (4). Die Kunststoffumspritzung (4) umschließt einen Teil des Kabelaußenmantels (10), die Crimp-Hülse (12) und damit die beiden Crimp-Stellen (21, 22) sowie einen kleinen Bereich der Schirmhülse (2). Fig. 3 represents an enlargement of a section of Fig. 2 On the basis of this section, the method for producing the advantageous cable end piece (1) shown here will be described.
First, the outer cable sheath (10) is separated in the end region of the cable, thereby creating the subsequent cavity (14). A crimp sleeve (12) is pushed from the right onto the outer cable sheath (10). Then a shielding sleeve (2) is attached to the two conductor sheaths (13) from the right. From the left, the braided shield (11) of the cable is mounted on the shielding sleeve (2), or the shielding sleeve (2) is pushed to the left "under" the braided shield (11) of the cable. Then, from the left, the crimp sleeve (12) is mounted on the braided shield (11) of the cable and the shielding sleeve (2). A cavity (14) remains between crimp sleeve (12) and screen braid (11). During the subsequent crimping, for example by a double round crimp, the components are reshaped and the cavity (14) is reduced or eliminated. By crimping twice the crimp sleeve (12) is on a First crimping point (21) on the right electrically connected to the shielding sleeve (2) with the shielding braid (11) of the cable and crimped at a second crimping point (22) left the crimp sleeve (12) with the outer cable sheath (10) ,
The illustrated cable end piece (1) was finally encapsulated with a plastic up to the outer area of the shielding sleeve (2) (4). The plastic extrusion (4) encloses a part of the outer cable sheath (10), the crimp sleeve (12) and thus the two crimping points (21, 22) and a small portion of the shielding sleeve (2).

In Fig. 2 ist die Schnittfläche B-B markiert. Den Längsschnitt des Kabelendstücks (1) entlang dieser Schnittfläche B-B zeigt Fig. 4. Von außen nach innen sind die Kunststoffumspritzung (4), die Crimp-Hülse (12), der Kabelaußenmantel (10), das Schirmgeflecht (11) des Kabels und die beiden Leitungen (3) mit den jeweiligen Leitungsmänteln (13) dargestellt. Die beiden Leitungen (3) sind hier wieder eine Plus- und eine Minus-Hochvoltleitung.In Fig. 2 the cut surface BB is marked. The longitudinal section of the cable end piece (1) along this cut surface BB shows Fig. 4 , From outside to inside are the plastic extrusion (4), the crimp sleeve (12), the outer cable sheath (10), the shield braid (11) of the cable and the two lines (3) with the respective conduit sheaths (13). The two lines (3) are here again a plus and a minus high-voltage line.
