Description

Steckverbindung mit einem Stecker- und einem Buchsenteil und diese aufnehmenden Adaptergehäusen Plug connection with a male and a female part and these receiving adapter housings
Die Erfindung betrifft eine Steckverbindung nach dem Oberbegriff des Anspruchs 1.The invention relates to a connector according to the preamble of claim 1.
Adapter der gattungsgemäßen Art ermöglichen den Einsatz der in sie eingesetzten Steckerteile auch in rauerer Umgebung - beispielsweise in Produktionsanlagen oder Fahrzeugen - durch Erreichen einer im Vergleich zur Schutzklasse des Steckerteils höheren Schutzklasse wie z.B. IP65 oder IP67.Adapters of the generic type allow the use of the connector parts inserted in them even in harsher environment - for example in production plants or vehicles - by achieving a higher than the protection class of the plug part protection class such. IP65 or IP67.
Eine gattungsgemäße Anordnung für einen Telefonstecker ist aus der US 4,349,236 (Bell Telephone Laboratories) bekannt.A generic arrangement for a telephone plug is known from US 4,349,236 (Bell Telephone Laboratories).
Weiterentwickelt bzw. verankert wurde die Idee des Erreichens höher Anforderungen aus Umgebungsklassifikationen in der IEC 61067-3-106 Variante 4, in der EN 50173-1:2005, in der ISO/IEC 24702 und in der IEC 61918.The idea of achieving higher requirements from environmental classifications was further developed or anchored in IEC 61067-3-106 variant 4, in EN 50173-1: 2005, in ISO / IEC 24702 and in IEC 61918.
Eine Möglichkeit zur Realisierung dieser Normen zeigt die DE 102 36 275 B3. Diese bekannte Konstruktion weist allerdings das Problem auf, dass sie nur für die Übertra- gung elektrischer Signale geeignet ist und dass es in der Regel einer Bauraumvergrößerung bedarf, um die Lösung auch für andere Steckerteile, z.B. der Lichtleitertechnik (beispielsweise mit SC-Simplex-Einsätzen insbesondere im Abstand 7,35 mm), nutzen zu können. Die bekannte Konstruktion sollte zudem in Hinsicht auf hohe mechanische und chemische Belastungen verbessert werden, denen sie nicht optimal gerecht wird.One way to implement these standards is shown in DE 102 36 275 B3. However, this known construction has the problem that it is only suitable for the transmission of electrical signals and that it usually requires an increase in space in order to make the solution suitable for other connector parts, e.g. the fiber optic technology (for example, with SC simplex inserts in particular at a distance of 7.35 mm), to use. The known construction should also be improved in view of high mechanical and chemical loads, which they do not optimally meet.
Zur Lösung dieses Problems wird in der gattungsgemäßen EP 1 786 071 A2 vorgeschlagen, dass das Aufnahmegehäuse einen vorderen Aufnahmeabschnitt für das Steckerteil aufweist und einen sich daran direkt einstückig anschließenden zylindrischen Abschnitt mit einem sich über einen Teil der axialen Länge erstreckenden Außengewinde zum Aufschrauben einer Mutter für die Kabeldurchführung. Die Mutter weist ferner ein sich über einen Teil ihrer axialen Länge erstreckendes Innengewinde und einen sich über das Gewindeende axial heraus erstreckenden Hülsenabschnitt auf, der einen etwas größeren Innendurchmesser aufweist als der Außendurchmesser des zylindrischen Abschnittes, so dass zwischen dem Innendurchmesser des Hülsenab- Schnittes und dem Außendurchmesser des zylindrischen Abschnittes ein in Richtung eines Steckgesichtes offener und am anderen Ende von dem verschraubten Gewinde axial verschlossener Ringraum ausgebildet ist, in den ein Hülsenabschnitt einer Schiebehülse oder einer zwischen der Schiebehülse und der Mutter angeordneten Adapterhülse eingreift.To solve this problem is proposed in the generic EP 1 786 071 A2, that the receiving housing has a front receiving portion for the plug part and a directly integrally adjoining cylindrical portion with an over part of the axial length extending external thread for screwing a nut for the cable entry. The mother points a female thread extending over part of its axial length and a sleeve section extending axially outwardly beyond the threaded end and having a slightly larger inner diameter than the outer diameter of the cylindrical section, such that between the inner diameter of the sleeve section and the outer diameter of the cylindrical section Section is formed in the direction of a mating face open and at the other end of the screwed thread axially sealed annular space in which engages a sleeve portion of a sliding sleeve or arranged between the sliding sleeve and the nut adapter sleeve.
Diese Konstruktion hat sich an sich bewährt. Es besteht aber der Bedarf, eine weitere, möglichst universell einsetzbare Steckverbindung zu schaffen, die auf einfache Weise mit und ohne ergänzende Adaptergehäuse einsetzbar ist.This construction has proven itself. However, there is a need to provide a further, as universally applicable plug-in connection, which can be used in a simple manner with and without additional adapter housing.
Die Erfindung löst die oben genannte Aufgabe durch den Gegenstand des Anspruchs 1. Vorteilhafte Ausgestaltungen sind den Unteransprüchen zu entnehmen.The invention solves the above-mentioned object by the subject matter of claim 1. Advantageous embodiments are given in the dependent claims.
Die Erfindung schafft eine Steckverbindung mit einem ersten Steckverbinderteil und einem zweiten Steckverbinderteil, die jeweils zusammensteckbare und vorzugsweise miteinander verriegelbare - insbesondere verrast- oder verschraubbare - Adaptergehäuse aufweisen, welche wiederum zusammensteckbare Stecker- und Buchsenteile eingesetzt sind, wobei die Stecker- und Buchsenteile korrespondierende, zusammensteckbare Steckgesichter mit einem Steckergehäuse und einem Buchsengehäuse aufweisen, die eine Mehrzahl metallischer, elektrisch leitender weiblicher und männli- eher Kontakte aufweisen. Unter die Erfindung fallen Ausführungen der Steckverbindung ohne, aber insbesondere auch mit Adapter-Schutzgehäusen für das Steckerteil und das Buchsenteil zum Erreichen einer höheren Dichtung.The invention provides a plug-in connection with a first connector part and a second connector part, each having mating and preferably lockable - especially latched or screwed - have adapter housing, which in turn are plugged plug and socket parts are used, the male and female parts corresponding, zusammensteckbare Mating faces with a plug housing and a female housing, which have a plurality of metallic, electrically conductive female and male rather contacts. The invention includes embodiments of the connector without, but in particular with adapter protective housings for the plug part and the female part to achieve a higher seal.
Nach dem Kennzeichen des Anspruchs 1 weisen das Steckergehäuse und/oder das Buchsengehäuse einen Kontaktträger auf, an dem zumindest ein Teil der Kontakte - d.h. wenigstens einer der Kontakte oder mehrere - oder sämtliche Kontakte (11, 12) vormontierbar sind und der an einem Kontakthalter nach einer Vormontage des Kontaktes oder der Kontakte vorzugsweise aus einer Vormontagestellung zur Montage der Kontakte mit den Kontakten in eine Endmontagestellung beweglich ist. Ein besonderer Vorteil dieser Anordnung ist derart realisierbare leichte und sichere Monta- ge der Kontakte, die vorzugsweise als Stift- und Buchsenkontakte ausgebildet sind, welche an Leiterenden eines Kabels befestigt, z.B. angecrimpt sind, zunächst an dem Kontaktträger, welcher sodann mit den Kontakten in eine Endmontagestellung beweglich, insbesondere verschieblich ist.According to the characterizing part of claim 1, the plug housing and / or the socket housing on a contact carrier on which at least a portion of the contacts - ie at least one of the contacts or more - or all contacts (11, 12) are preassembled and which is movable on a contact holder after a pre-assembly of the contact or the contacts preferably from a pre-assembly position for mounting the contacts with the contacts in a final assembly position. A particular advantage of this arrangement is the fact that it is possible to easily and securely mount the contacts, which are preferably designed as pin and socket contacts which are fastened, eg crimped, to conductor ends of a cable, first to the contact carrier, which then makes contact with the contacts Final assembly position is movable, in particular displaceable.
Besonders einfach und sicher ist dies dadurch realisierbar, dass der Kontaktträger in zwei in Steckrichtung axial zueinander versetzten Positionen am Kontakthalter ver- rastbar ist.This can be realized in a particularly simple and secure manner by virtue of the fact that the contact carrier can be latched on the contact holder in two positions offset axially relative to one another in the plug-in direction.
Nach einer bevorzugten Ausgestaltung weisen die Stecker- und Buchsengehäuse ei- nen rechteckigen Querschnitt auf, wobei vorzugsweise mehrere parallel zueinander ausgerichtete Reihen von elektrischen Kontakten vorgesehen sind, um derart einen besonders kompakten Steckverbinder mit einer großen Anzahl von Kontakten auf engem Raum, die für Signale, Energie oder Daten nutzbar sind, zu verwirklichen.According to a preferred embodiment, the plug and socket housings have a rectangular cross-section, wherein preferably a plurality of mutually parallel rows of electrical contacts are provided in order to provide a particularly compact connector with a large number of contacts in a small space, which is used for signals, Energy or data are available to realize.
Es ist zweckmäßig und konstruktiv einfach, wenn der Kontaktträger rahmenartig ausgebildet ist und wenn er eine Mehrzahl von führungshülsenartigen und vorzugsweise geschlitzten und damit begrenzt elastisch aufweitbaren Durchgangsöffnungen aufweist, welche von einem Teil der Kontakte - wenigstens einem Kontakt - oder sämtlichen Kontakten durchsetzt sind, wobei der oder die Kontakte in den Durch- gangsöffnungen form- und/oder kraftschlüssig festgelegt sind.It is useful and structurally simple if the contact carrier is like a frame and if it has a plurality of guide sleeve-like and preferably slotted and thus limited elastically expandable through holes, which are penetrated by a portion of the contacts - at least one contact - or all contacts, said or the contacts in the through-openings are fixed positively and / or non-positively.
Nach einer weiteren, die Sicherheit der Steckerverbindung erhöhenden Variante ist die Verrastung zwischen dem Kontaktträger und dem Kontakthalter in der Endmontagestellung einfach oder mehrfach blockierbar bzw. blockiert. Nachfolgend wird die Erfindung unter Bezug auf die Zeichnung anhand von Ausführungsbeispielen näher erläutert, wobei auch weitere Vorteile der Erfindung deutlich werden. Es zeigt:After a further, the safety of the plug connection increasing variant, the locking between the contact carrier and the contact holder in the final assembly position is easily or repeatedly blocked or blocked. The invention will be explained in more detail below with reference to the drawing with reference to exemplary embodiments, whereby further advantages of the invention will become apparent. It shows:

Fig. 1 bis 3 zeigen im Zusammenspiel eine Steckverbindung 1 mit einem ersten Steckverbinderteil 2 und einem zweiten Steckverbinderteil 3, die jeweils zusammensteckbare und miteinander verriegelbare - insbesondere verrast- oder verschraubbare - Adaptergehäuse 4, 5 aufweisen, welche wiederum zusammensteckbare Stecker- und Buchsenteile 6, 7 eingesetzt sind (Fig. 2a und b sowie 4; Fig. 3a und b).1 to 3 show in interaction a connector 1 with a first connector part 2 and a second connector part 3, each of which can be plugged together and locked - especially latched or screwed - adapter housing 4, 5, which in turn mating plug and socket parts 6, 7 are inserted (Figures 2a and b and 4, Figures 3a and b).
Das eine der Adaptergehäuse - das Adaptergehäuse 5 - ist hier mit einem Flansch 8 versehen und eignet sich derart z.B. zur Befestigung an einem Durchbruch eines Ge- häuses (hier nicht dargestellt) oder an einer Platte oder dgl.. Die Stecker- und Buchsenteile 6, 7 weisen korrespondierende, zusammensteckbare Steckgesichter mit einem Steckergehäuse 9 und einem Buchsengehäuse 10 auf, welche derart ausgestaltet sind, dass das Steckergehäuse 9 in das Buchsengehäuse 10 einsteckbar ist. Hieraus leiten sich hier die Bezeichnungen „Stecker- und Buchsen- teil" ab. Das Steckergehäuse 9 umfasst eine Mehrzahl metallischer, elektrisch leitender weiblicher Kontakte 11, die mit einer Mehrzahl männlicher Kontakte 12 des Buchsengehäuses 10 zusammensteckbar sind (Fig. 5, 6 und 9a, 1012, 13). Es wäre auch eine umgekehrte Anordnung mit weiblichen Kontakten im Buchsengehäuse und korrespondierenden männlichen Kontakten im Steckergehäuse oder eine gemischte Anordnung denkbar (hier nicht dargestellt).One of the adapter housing - the adapter housing 5 - is here provided with a flange 8 and is suitable for example for attachment to an opening in a housing (not shown here) or on a plate or the like. The plug and socket parts 6, 7 have corresponding mating plug-in faces with a plug housing 9 and a socket housing 10 which are configured such that the plug housing 9 can be inserted into the socket housing 10. The plug housing 9 comprises a plurality of metallic, electrically conductive female contacts 11, which can be plugged together with a plurality of male contacts 12 of the female housing 10 (FIGS. 5, 6 and 9a) 1012, 13) It would also be conceivable to have a reverse arrangement with female contacts in the female housing and corresponding male contacts in the male housing or a mixed arrangement (not shown here).
Die Stecker- und Buchsengehäuse 9, 10 weisen hier jeweils eine kompakte Form mit einem rechteckigen Querschnitt auf, wobei vorzugsweise mehrere parallel zueinander ausgerichtete Reihen von elektrischen Kontakten 11, 12 vorgesehen sind. In beson- ders bevorzugter Ausgestaltung sind zehn der Kontakte 11, 12 in drei Reihen zu zweimal drei und einmal vier Kontakten vorgesehen, die zur Übertragung von Daten, elektrischer Leitung und/oder Signalen nutzbar sind.The plug and socket housings 9, 10 here each have a compact shape with a rectangular cross section, wherein preferably a plurality of parallel aligned rows of electrical contacts 11, 12 are provided. In a particularly preferred embodiment, ten of the contacts 11, 12 are provided in three rows to twice three and once four contacts, which can be used for the transmission of data, electrical line and / or signals.
Durch diese Vielzahl von Kontakten 11, 12 auf engem Raum ist die Steckverbindung 1 insbesondere für Aufgaben der Automatisierungstechnik hervorragend geeignet.Due to this large number of contacts 11, 12 in a small space, the connector 1 is particularly well suited for tasks of automation technology.
Vorzugsweise sind die Adaptergehäuse 4, 5 (z.B. mit entsprechenden Dichtungen und dgl. versehen) in einer relativ hohen Schutzart wie IP65 oder mehr ausgelegt während die inneren Stecker- und Buchsenteile 6, 7, die auch ohne die Adapterge- häuse 4, 5 zusammensteckbar sind, in einer niedrigeren Schutzart wie IP20 ausgestaltet sind, so dass es mit den Adaptergehäusen 4, 5 möglich ist, die Steckverbindung 1 auch in rauerer Umgebung z.B. in der industriellen Fertigung einzusetzen.The adapter housings 4, 5 (eg provided with corresponding seals and the like) are preferably designed in a relatively high degree of protection such as IP65 or more, while the inner plug and socket parts 6, 7 can also be plugged together without the adapter housings 4, 5 are designed in a lower degree of protection such as IP20, so that it is possible with the adapter housings 4, 5, the connector 1 in a harsh environment eg to be used in industrial production.
Der Aufbau der Adaptergehäuse 4, 5 kann nach Art des beschriebenen Standes der Technik realisiert sein, insbesondere werden das Steckerteil 6 und das Buchsenteil 7 in den Adaptergehäusen 4, 5 verrastet, was beispielsweise in Fig. 3 zu erkennen ist, nach der ein Rastvorsprung 13 am Steckergehäuse 9 in eine korrespondierende Rast- ausnehmung 14 am Adaptergehäuse 4 greift.The construction of the adapter housing 4, 5 can be realized in the manner of the prior art described, in particular the plug part 6 and the socket part 7 are latched in the adapter housings 4, 5, which can be seen for example in FIG. after a locking projection 13 on the connector housing 9 engages in a corresponding latching recess 14 on the adapter housing 4.
Von besonderem Interesse sind der konstruktive Aufbau des Stecker- und des Buch- senteils 6, 7.Of particular interest are the structural design of the male and female parts 6, 7.
Fig. 4 zeigt eine Einzeldarstellung des Steckerteils 6 im zusammengesetzten Zustand und Fig. 5 eine Sprengansicht des Steckerteils 6.4 shows an individual view of the plug part 6 in the assembled state and FIG. 5 shows a blasting view of the plug part 6.
Gut zu erkennen ist die mehrteilige Ausgestaltung des Steckergehäuses 9.Good to see the multi-part design of the connector housing. 9
Das Steckergehäuse 9 ist dazu ausgelegt, an einem Kabelende eines mehrere Leiter 15 aufweisenden Kabels 16 montiert zu werden, wobei an den Leiterenden der Leiter 15 jeweils die hier hülsenartigen Buchsenkontakte 11 montiert sind, was vorzugswei- se durch einen Vercrimpvorgang erfolgt.The plug housing 9 is designed to be mounted on a cable end of a cable 16 having a plurality of conductors 15, wherein the sleeve-like socket contacts 11 are mounted on the conductor ends of the conductors 15, which is preferably carried out by a crimping process.
Zur Halterung der Buchsenkontakte 11 dient ein rahmenartiger Kontaktträger 17 (Fig. 5), der vorzugsweise aus Kunststoff besteht und in bzw. an dem eine der Anzahl an weiblichen Kontakten 11 entsprechende Zahl von führungshülsenartigen und vor- zugsweise an zwei Umfang s stellen über einen teil der axialen Länge radial geschlitzten und damit begrenzt elastisch aufweitbaren Durchgangsöffnungen 18 mit Stegen 18a ausgebildet ist, welche von den weiblichen Kontakten 11 durchsetzt sind, so dass die freien - von den Leitern 15 abgewandten Enden der Buchsenkontakte aus den Durchgangsöffnungen vorstehen.For holding the socket contacts 11 is a frame-like contact carrier 17 (Fig. 5), which preferably consists of plastic and in or on the one of the number of female contacts 11 corresponding number of guide sleeve-like and preferably on two circumference s over a part The axial length of radially slotted and thus limited elastically expandable through holes 18 is formed with webs 18a, which are penetrated by the female contacts 11, so that the free - projecting from the conductors 15 ends of the socket contacts protrude from the through holes.
In den Durchgangsöffnungen 18 und/oder an den Stegen 18a sind die weiblichen Kontakte 11 form- und/oder kraftschlüssig festgelegt, was klemmend oder vorzugsweise durch Verrastung erfolgt, wozu am Außenumfang der Buchsenkontakte 11 und an den Durchgangsöffnungen 18 korrespondierende Rastmittel 19 vorgesehen sein können (Fig. 7b, c), die wiederum als Aussparungen in den Kontakten 11 und korrespondierende Rastkanten - hier an den Stegen 18a - ausgebildet sein können. Die Durchgangsöffnungen und/oder die Stege 18a können sich auch verjüngen und selbst mit ihren freien Enden diese Rastkanten 19 bilden, um eine Vorverrastung zu sichernIn the through holes 18 and / or on the webs 18 a, the female contacts 11 are positively and / or non-positively fixed, which is clamping or preferably by latching, for which purpose on the outer circumference of the socket contacts 11 and the through holes 18 corresponding locking means 19 may be provided ( Fig. 7b, c), in turn, as recesses in the contacts 11 and corresponding locking edges - here on the webs 18a - may be formed. The Through holes and / or the webs 18a can also taper and form even with their free ends these locking edges 19 to secure a Vorverrastung
Zur Vereinfachung der Montage ist der Kontaktträger 17 beweglich - hier ver- schieblich - an einem Kontakthalter 21 mit Durchgangsöffnungen 22 angeordnet (Fig. 5 bis 7), an dem er in zwei in Steckrichtung X axial zueinander versetzten Positionen verrastbar ist, wobei er in einer dieser beiden Raststellungen einen größeren Abstand zu den Durchgangsöffnungen 22 im Kontakthalter 21 aufweist als in der anderen.To simplify the assembly of the contact carrier 17 is movable - here displaceable - arranged on a contact holder 21 with through holes 22 (Fig. 5 to 7), on which it can be locked in two in the insertion direction X axially offset positions, wherein it is in a this two locking positions has a greater distance from the through holes 22 in the contact holder 21 than in the other.
Der Kontakthalter 21 besteht vorzugsweise ebenfalls aus Kunststoff und weist eine der Anzahl an weiblichen Kontakten 11 entsprechende Zahl der Durchgangsöffnungen 22 auf, welche mit den Öffnungen der weiblichen Kontakte 11 fluchten.The contact holder 21 is preferably also made of plastic and has a number of female contacts 11 corresponding number of through holes 22 which are aligned with the openings of the female contacts 11.
Der Kontaktträger 17 ist in der Stellung, in welcher er einen größeren Abstand zum Kontakthalter 21 aufweist, vorverrastbar (Fig. 6). Diese „Vormontage- bzw. Vorver- raststellung" dient dazu, die Leiterenden 15 mit den weiblichen Kontakten 11 in einfacher Weise schnell sowie sicher vorzumontieren, wozu die Leiterenden 15 durch die Durchgangsöffnungen 18 gesteckt werden.The contact carrier 17 is in the position in which it has a greater distance from the contact holder 21, pre-latched (Fig. 6). This "preassembly or pre-locking position" serves to quickly and reliably pre-assemble the conductor ends 15 with the female contacts 11 in a simple manner, for which purpose the conductor ends 15 are inserted through the through-openings 18.
Der derart vormontierte Kontaktträger 17 wird sodann mit den weiblichen Kontakten 11 in Richtung des Abschnittes des Kontakthalters 21, welcher die Durchgangsöffnungen 22 aufweist, verschoben und in die zweite Raststellung gebracht.The thus pre-assembled contact carrier 17 is then with the female contacts 11 in the direction of the portion of the contact holder 21, which has the passage openings 22, moved and brought into the second detent position.
Realisierbar ist dies auf verschiedene Weise, so beispielsweise dadurch, das Rasthaken 23 einer genügenden Länge - hier vier Rasthaken - an einem der beiden Bauteile 17, 21 in zwei axial zueinander versetzten Rastausnehmungen 24a, b am anderen der beiden Bauteile Kontaktträger 17 oder Kontakthalter 21 verrastbar sind (Fig. 6a, b, c) oder dass für die verschiedenen Stellungen verschiedene Rastmittel, insbesondere verschieden stark verschiebesicherer Ausgestaltung vorgesehen sind (hier nicht dargestellt). Nach der Vormontage der Leiter 15 wird der Kontaktträger einfach aus der „Vorver- raststellung" der Fig. 6 in die „Verraststellung" der Fig. 7 verschoben.This can be realized in various ways, for example by latching hook 23 of a sufficient length - in this case four latching hooks - on two of the two components 17, 21 in two mutually axially offset latching recesses 24a, b on the other of the two components contact carrier 17 or contact holder 21 latched are (Fig. 6a, b, c) or that for the various positions different locking means, in particular different strong verschiebesicherer design are provided (not shown here). After the pre-assembly of the conductors 15, the contact carrier is simply displaced from the "pre-locked position" of FIG. 6 into the "latching position" of FIG.
Die führungshülsenartigen Stege 18a an den Durchgangsöffnungen können dazu aus- gelegt sein, in diesem Zustand in Trichter 20 oder analoge korrespondierende Konturen im Kontakthalter 21 derart einzutauchen, dass ein Aufweiten der Stege 18a durch den Kontakthalter 21 nach außen verhindert wird und derart die Verrastung der Buchsenkontakte 11 im Kontaktträger 17 verriegelt wird.The guide sleeve-like webs 18a at the passage openings can be designed to dip in this state in funnels 20 or analogous corresponding contours in the contact holder 21 such that a widening of the webs 18a is prevented by the contact holder 21 to the outside and thus the locking of the socket contacts 11 is locked in the contact carrier 17.
Das derart montierte Steckergehäuse 9 kann von einem Schirmgehäuse 26 aus einem oder mehreren Schirmblechen 27 eingefasst sein.The connector housing 9 mounted in this way can be enclosed by a shielding housing 26 made of one or more shielding plates 27.
Es ist ferner denkbar, das Steckerteil 6 derart direkt in das Adaptergehäuse 4 einzusetzen oder aber unter Verwendung eines Ergänzungsteils wie eines seine axiale Länge verlängernden Ansatzes 28 (Fig. 8)oder Zwischengehäuses. Hier wird der Ansatz 28 am Schirmgehäuse 26 festgerastet, wozu wiederum korrespondierende Rastmittel wie Rasthaken 29 und Rastausnehmungen 30 dienen.It is also conceivable to insert the plug part 6 directly into the adapter housing 4 or else using an additional part such as an extension 28 (FIG. 8) which extends its axial length or intermediate housing. Here, the projection 28 is firmly locked on the shield housing 26, which in turn serve corresponding latching means such as latching hooks 29 and 30 recesses.
Es ist ferner vorteilhaft, eine Zugentlastung für das Kabel vorzusehen, die in einfa- eher Ausgestaltung durch eine Kabelverschraubung 25 (am Steckerteil 2) realisierbar ist (Fig. 1).It is also advantageous to provide a strain relief for the cable, which can be realized in a simple embodiment by a cable gland 25 (on the plug part 2) (FIG. 1).
Vorzugsweise werden die Rasthaken 23 in der End verraststellung, in welcher sich der Kontaktträger 17 axial näher am Kontakthalter 21 mit den Durchgangslöchern befindet, blockiert. Diese Funktion ist beispielsweise mit Hilfe des Schirmgehäuses 26 realisierbar, wenn die Schirmbleche 27 derart ausgestaltet sind, das sie in montierter Stellung die Rasthaken 23 zum Außenumfang hin so abdecken, dass diese sich nicht aus den Rastausnehmungen 24 herausbewegen können (analog zu der noch zu beschreibenden Fig. 15 zum Buchsenteil).Preferably, the locking hooks 23 in the end latching position, in which the contact carrier 17 is axially closer to the contact holder 21 with the through holes blocked. This function can be realized, for example, with the aid of the shielding housing 26, when the shielding plates 27 are designed such that they cover the latching hooks 23 in the mounted position towards the outer periphery such that they can not move out of the latching recesses 24 (analogous to those to be described) Fig. 15 to the socket part).
Eine korrespondierende Ausgestaltung weist das Buchsengehäuse 10 auf. Das Buchsengehäuse 10 (Fig. 9a, b; 10a, b) ist ebenfalls dazu ausgelegt, an einem Kabelende eines mehrere Leiter 115 aufweisenden Kabels 116 montiert zu werden, wobei an den Leiterenden der Leiter 115 jeweils die hier Stiftkontakte (bzw. allgemeiner „männliche Kontakte") 12 montiert sind, was wiederum vorzugsweise durch einen Vercrimpvorgang erfolgt (Fig. 10 - 12).A corresponding embodiment has the female housing 10. The female housing 10 (Figures 9a, b; 10a, b) is also adapted to be mounted on a cable end of a cable 116 having a plurality of conductors 115, with the respective male contacts (or more generally "male") at the conductor ends of the conductors 115 Contacts ") 12 are mounted, which in turn preferably takes place by a crimping (Fig. 10 - 12).
Zur Halterung der Stiftkontakte 112 dient ein rahmenartiger Kontaktträger 117, der wiederum vorzugsweise aus Kunststoff besteht und in dem eine der Anzahl an männlichen Kontakten 12 entsprechende Zahl von führungshülsenartigen und vorzugswei- se geschlitzten und damit begrenzt elastisch aufweitbaren Durchgangsöffnungen 118 - ggf. mit Stegen 118a versehen - ausgebildet ist, welche von den männlichen Kontakten 12 durchsetzt sind, so dass die freien - von den Leitern 115 abgewandten Enden aus den Durchgangsöffnungen 118 mit den Stegen 118a vorverrastet vorstehen.For holding the pin contacts 112 is a frame-like contact carrier 117, which in turn is preferably made of plastic and in the one of the number of male contacts 12 corresponding number of guide sleeve-like and preferably slotted and thus elastically expandable through holes 118 - possibly provided with webs 118 a - Is formed, which are penetrated by the male contacts 12, so that the free - facing away from the conductors 115 ends of the through holes 118 with the webs 118 a pre-latched protrude.
In den Durchgangsöffnungen 118 sind die männlichen Kontakte 12 form- und/oder kraftschlüssig durch festgelegt, was klemmend oder vorzugsweise durch Verrastung erfolgt, wozu am Außenumfang der Kontakte 12 und an den Durchgangsöffnun- genl lδ bzw. deren Stegen 118a korrespondierende Rastmittel 119 vorgesehen sein können (Fig. 12), die wiederum als Aussparungen in den Kontakten 11 und korres- pondierende Rastkanten ausgebildet sein können. Die Durchgangsöffnungen 118 o- der Stege 118a daran können sich auch verjüngen und selbst mit ihren freien Enden diese Rastkanten bilden.The male contacts 12 are positively and / or non-positively fixed in the passage openings 118 by clamping, or preferably by latching, for which purpose latching means 119 corresponding to the outer circumference of the contacts 12 and the passage openings 118 or their webs 118a can be provided (FIG. 12), which in turn may be formed as recesses in the contacts 11 and corresponding latching edges. The through holes 118 o of the webs 118a thereto can also taper and form even with their free ends these locking edges.
Zur Vereinfachung der Montage ist der Kontaktträger 117 beweglich - hier ver- schieblich - an einem Kontakthalter 121 angeordnet(Fig. 10, 11, 12), an dem er in zwei in Steckrichtung X axial zueinander versetzten Positionen verrastbar ist, wobei er in einer dieser beiden Raststellungen einen größeren Abstand zum Kontakthalter 121 aufweist als in der anderen. Der Kontakthalter 121 besteht vorzugsweise ebenfalls aus Kunststoff und weist eine der Anzahl an männlichen Kontakten 12 entsprechende Zahl von Durchgangsöffnungen 122 auf, welche mit den Kontakten 12 fluchten.In order to simplify the assembly, the contact carrier 117 is movable (here displaceable) on a contact holder 121 (FIGS. 10, 11, 12) on which it can be latched in two positions offset axially relative to one another in the insertion direction X, wherein it is in one of these positions two detent positions a greater distance from the contact holder 121 than in the other. The contact holder 121 is preferably also made of plastic and has a number of male contacts 12 corresponding number of through holes 122 which are aligned with the contacts 12.
Der Kontaktträger 117 ist in der Stellung, in welcher er einen größeren Abstand zum Kontakthalter 121 aufweist, vorverrastbar. Diese „Vorverraststellung" dient dazu, die Leiterenden 115 mit den männlichen Kontakten 12 in einfacher Weise schnell sowie sicher vorzumontieren, wozu die Leiterenden 115 durch die Durchgangsöffnungen 118 gesteckt werden.The contact carrier 117 is in the position in which it has a greater distance from the contact holder 121, pre-latched. This "pre-locked position" serves to quickly and safely pre-assemble the conductor ends 115 with the male contacts 12 in a simple manner, for which purpose the conductor ends 115 are inserted through the through-openings 118.
Der derart vormontierte Kontaktträger 117 wird sodann mit den Kontakten 12 in Richtung des Abschnittes des Kontakthalters 121, welcher die Durchgangsöffnungen 122 aufweist, verschoben und in die zweite Raststellung gebracht, so dass die Enden der männlichen Kontakte 12 die Durchgangsöffnungen 122 durchsetzen.The thus pre-assembled contact carrier 117 is then with the contacts 12 in the direction of the portion of the contact holder 121, which has the passage openings 122, moved and placed in the second detent position, so that the ends of the male contacts 12 pass through the through holes 122.
Realisierbar ist dies auf verschiedene Weise, so beispielsweise dadurch, das Rasthaken 123 einer genügenden Länge - hier vier Rasthaken - an einem der beiden Bauteile 117, 121 in zwei axial zueinander versetzten Rastausnehmungen 124a, b am anderen der beiden Bauteile Kontaktträger 117 oder Kontakthalter 121 verrastbar sind (Fig. 10) oder dass für die verschiedenen Stellungen verschiedene Rastmittel, insbesondere verschieden stark verschiebesicherer Ausgestaltung vorgesehen sind (hier nicht dargestellt).This can be realized in various ways, for example by latching hook 123 of a sufficient length - in this case four latching hooks - latched to one of the two components 117, 121 in two axially offset latching recesses 124a, b at the other of the two components contact carrier 117 or contact holder 121 are (Fig. 10) or that for the different positions different locking means, in particular different strong verschiebesicherer design are provided (not shown here).
Die führungshülsenartigen Stege 118a an den Durchgangsöffnungen können dazu ausgelegt sein, in diesem Zustand in Trichter 120 oder wiederum analoge korrespondierende Konturen im Kontakthalter 121 derart einzutauchen, dass ein Aufweiten der Stege 118a nach außen verhindert wird und derart die Verrastung der Stiftkontakte 10 im Kontaktträger 117 verriegelt wird.The guide sleeve-like webs 118a at the through openings can be designed to dip in this state in funnels 120 or analogous corresponding contours again in the contact holder 121 such that a widening of the webs 118a is prevented to the outside and thus locks the locking of the pin contacts 10 in the contact carrier 117 becomes.
Nach der Vormontage der Leiter 115 wird der Kontaktträger 117 aus der „Vorverraststellung" in die „Verraststellung" verschoben (Fig. 12, 13). Das derart montierte Buchsengehäuse 10 kann wiederum von einem Schirmgehäuse 126 aus einem oder hier zwei (oder mehr) Schirmblechen 127 eingefasst sein.After the pre-assembly of the conductors 115, the contact carrier 117 is displaced from the "pre-locked position" into the "latching position" (FIGS. 12, 13). The socket housing 10 mounted in this way can in turn be enclosed by a screen housing 126 made of one or two (or more) shielding plates 127.
Es ist ferner vorteilhaft, auch hier eine Zugentlastung für das Kabel 116 vorzusehen, die in einfacher Ausgestaltung durch Kabelbinder 132 an einer Montagekontur 131 am Buchsengehäuse 10 realisiert werden kann (Fig. 9b).It is also advantageous to provide a strain relief for the cable 116, which can be realized in a simple embodiment by cable ties 132 on a mounting contour 131 on the female housing 10 (Fig. 9b).
Vorzugsweise werden die Rasthaken 123 in der Endverraststellung, in welcher sich der Kontaktträger 117 axial näher am Kontakthaltern 121 mit den Durchgangslö- ehern befindet, blockiert. Diese Funktion ist beispielsweise mit Hilfe des Schirmgehäuses 126 realisierbar, wenn die Schirmbleche 127 derart ausgestaltet sind, das sie in montierter Stellung die Rasthaken 123 zum Außenumfang hin so abdecken, dass diese sich nicht aus den Rastausnehmungen 124a, b herausbewegen können (Fig. 15).Preferably, the latching hooks 123 are blocked in the Endverraststellung in which the contact carrier 117 is axially closer to the contact holders 121 with the Durchgangslö- ers. This function can be realized, for example, with the aid of the shielding housing 126, when the shielding plates 127 are designed such that they cover the latching hooks 123 in the mounted position towards the outer circumference so that they can not move out of the latching recesses 124a, b (FIG. 15). ,
Vorzugsweise werden die Schirmbleche 27, 127 aufschnappbar ausgelegt und wiederum an Rastmitteln am Stecker- bzw. Buchsengehäuse 9, 10 verrastet.Preferably, the shield plates 27, 127 are designed snapped and in turn latched to locking means on the plug or socket housing 9, 10.
Das Schirmgehäuse 126 oder ein Teil des Gehäuses kann auch verschieblich ausgelegt und in eine Blockier Stellung herein- und aus dieser heraus schiebbar sein, wobei es weiter ganz besonders vorteilhaft ist, wenn es beim Verschieben in die Blockierstellung in einen Hinter schnitt oder Schlitz 133 einer Lasche 134 oder dgl. eingreift, so dass es selbst - den Rasthaken 128 sichernd - gegen ein Ausbiegen nach außen gesichert ist, so dass in einfacher und vorteilhafter Weise quasi eine Art "mehrfacher" Blockierstellung für den Rasthaken 123 realisierbar ist (Fig. 16 - 19).The shield housing 126 or a portion of the housing can also be designed slidably and in a blocking position in and out of this be pushed out, where it is also particularly advantageous if it cut when moving into the blocking position in a back or slot 133 of a tab 134 or the like engages, so that it itself - the latching hooks 128 securing - is secured against bending outwards, so that in a simple and advantageous manner almost a kind of "multiple" blocking position for the latching hook 123 can be realized (FIGS. 16-19 ).
Eine Blechlasche 135, die in eine Ausnehmung 136 des Steckergehäuses 9 oder Buchsengehäuses 10 eingreift, kann das Schirmgehäuse selbst gegen ein Verschieben sichern (Fig. 19).A sheet metal tab 135, which engages in a recess 136 of the plug housing 9 or socket housing 10, can secure the shield housing itself against displacement (FIG. 19).
Die Verschieblichkeit des Schirmgehäuses 126 erschließt sich besonders gut aus Fig. 20. Hier wird das Schirmgehäuse 126 aus einem Schirmblech 127 gebildet und einem Zink-/Druckguss- Unterteil 139, an welches der Kontakthalter 121 an Zapfen 137 ansetzbar ist.The mobility of the shield housing 126 is particularly well illustrated in FIG. 20. Here, the shield housing 126 is formed from a shield plate 127 and a zinc / die-cast lower part 139, to which the contact holder 121 can be attached to pin 137.
Die Relativverschieblichkeit des Kontaktträgers 117 am Kontakthalter 121 und am Zinkdruckgussunterteil 136 ist weiterhin gegeben. Das eigentliche Schirmblech 127 ist mit dem Kontaktträger 117 am Kontakthalter 121 verschieblich geführt, was die Handhabung und die Montage wiederum weiter vereinfacht. Es ist aus der Vormontagestellung der Fig. 22a in die Endmontagestellung der Fig. 22b bewegbar, in wel- eher es am Kontakthalter 121 verrastbar ist (Rastmittel 138)The relative displaceability of the contact carrier 117 on the contact holder 121 and on the Zinkdruckgussunterteil 136 is still given. The actual shield plate 127 is displaceably guided with the contact carrier 117 on the contact holder 121, which in turn further simplifies handling and assembly. It can be moved from the preassembly position of FIG. 22 a into the final assembly position of FIG. 22 b, in which it can be locked on the contact holder 121 (latching means 138).
Fig. 23 zeigt eine Variante, bei welcher am Steckergehäuse 9 (und/oder am Buchsengehäuse) außen relativ zu diesem schwenkbare Schirmbleche 31, 32 angeordnet sind, die aus einer winklig „aufgeschwenkten" Stellung der Fig. 22a, b in eine zuge- schwenkte Stellung in einer Anlage direkt am Steckergehäuse 9 schwenkbar sind.Fig. 23 shows a variant in which the plug housing 9 (and / or on the socket housing) are arranged externally relative to this pivotable shield plates 31, 32, from an angularly "swung" position of Fig. 22a, b in a zuge pivoted Position in a system directly on the connector housing 9 are pivotable.
Dabei sind die Schirmbleche 31, 32 vom Steckgesicht abgewandten Seite hin im aufgeschwenkten Zustand miteinander einen sich aufweitenden Winkel ein, was das Einsteckern der Buchsenanschlüsse erleichtert.In this case, the shield plates 31, 32 facing away from the mating face side in the pivoted state with each other a widening angle, which facilitates the insertion of the female terminals.
Im zugeschwenkten Zustand wird die Verrastungs Stellung des Kontaktträgers 17 am Kontakthalter 21 wiederum verriegelt. Zur Realisierung der Schwenkbarkeit weisen die in einer Seitenansicht jedenfalls abschnittsweise u-förmigen Schirmbleche 31, 32 hier an einer ihrer Seiten Langlöcher 33 und die Steckergehäuse 9 korrespondierende Zapfen 34 auf, wobei an der gegenüberliegende Seite zusätzlich zu einer derartigen Anordnung korrespondierende Rastloch/Zapfenanordnungen, 35, 36 vorgesehen sind, um die Offenstellung und die Raststellung jeweils lösbar rastend zu fixieren.In the pivoted state, the latching position of the contact carrier 17 is locked on the contact holder 21 again. To realize the pivoting have in a side view in any case sections U-shaped shield plates 31, 32 here on one side slots 33 and the connector housing 9 corresponding pins 34, wherein on the opposite side in addition to such an arrangement corresponding locking hole / pin arrangements, 35th , 36 are provided to fix the open position and the locking position releasably latching respectively.
Eine korrespondierende Anordnung von Schirmblechen wird vorzugsweise am Buchsenteil realisiert (nicht dargestellt). Wie bereits erörter, weist der Kontaktträger 17, 117 eine Mehrzahl von führungshül- senartigen und vorzugsweise geschlitzten und damit begrenzt elastisch aufweitbaren Durchgangsöffnungen 18, 118 auf, welche von den Kontakten durchsetzt sind. Es ist aber auch denkbar, wenn nur ein Teil der Kontakte 12 entsprechende Durchgangs- Öffnungen 218 durchsetzt. Eine entsprechende Ausgestaltung zeigt Fig. 24. Hier weist der Kontaktträger 217 drei Reihen Rl, R2, R3 der Kontakte 12 auf. Sämtliche Kontakte sind am Kontaktträger 217 vormontierbar. Nur eine mittlere Reihe der Kontakte durchsetzt dabei die in Fig. 24a zu erkennenden Durchgangsöffnungen 218 im Kontaktträger 217.A corresponding arrangement of shielding plates is preferably realized on the socket part (not shown). As already discussed, the contact carrier 17, 117 a plurality of guide sleeve-like and preferably slotted and thus limited elastically expandable through holes 18, 118, which are penetrated by the contacts. But it is also conceivable if only a portion of the contacts 12 passes through corresponding through openings 218. A corresponding embodiment is shown in FIG. 24. Here, the contact carrier 217 has three rows R1, R2, R3 of the contacts 12. All contacts are preassembled on the contact carrier 217. Only a middle row of the contacts passes through the through openings 218 to be recognized in FIG. 24a in the contact carrier 217.
Die übrigen Kontakte 12 sind in nicht umfangsgeschlossenen Nuten 219 angeordnet, in welchen sie vorzugsweise ähnlich zur Festlegung in den Durchgangsöffnungen vormontiert gehalten sind. Die Kontakte in den beiden äußeren Kontaktreihen können damit besonders einfach von außen montiert werden, indem sie in die entspre- chenden Nuten 219 eingelegt werden (Fig. Ia, b, c).The remaining contacts 12 are arranged in non-circumferentially closed grooves 219, in which they are preferably kept pre-assembled similar to the definition in the through holes. The contacts in the two outer contact rows can thus be mounted particularly easily from the outside by being inserted into the corresponding grooves 219 (FIG. 1a, b, c).
Sodann wird diese vormontierte Einheit in einen entsprechend ausgebildeten Kontakthalter 221 eingeschoben und dort verrastet (Fig. 4d). Danach können ein Schirmblech 227 und vorzugsweise ein Unterteil 239 (insbesondere in Zink- Druckgussausführung) an dieser vormontierten Anordnung montiert werden (Fig. 24 d, e, f). Diese Einheit kann schließlich in eine Adapterhülse gesetzt werden (hier nicht dargestellt). Then, this preassembled unit is inserted into a correspondingly formed contact holder 221 and latched there (FIG. 4d). Thereafter, a shroud 227 and preferably a lower part 239 (in particular in die-cast zinc version) can be mounted on this preassembled arrangement (FIGS. 24 d, e, f). This unit can finally be placed in an adapter sleeve (not shown here).
