Description

Steckverbinder Connectors
Die Erfindung betrifft einen Steckverbinder mit einem The invention relates to a connector with a
Kontaktträgerelement, innerhalb welchem ein oder mehrere Kontaktelemente zur Aufnahme einer oder mehrerer Litzen eines Kabels zur Herstellung einer Kontaktierung anordbar sind . Contact carrier element, within which one or more contact elements for receiving one or more strands of a cable for making a contact can be arranged.
Derartige Steckverbinder weisen üblicherweise ein aus einem nicht-leitenden Material hergestelltes Kontaktträgerelement auf, welches beispielsweise drei oder fünf oder mehr Such connectors usually have a contact carrier element made of a non-conductive material, which may be, for example, three or five or more
Kontaktelemente zur Herstellung einer elektrisch leitenden Verbindung mit einem Kabel bzw. mit den Litzen eines Kabels aufnehmen kann. Üblicherweise sind die Kontaktelemente mit dem Kontaktträgerelement fest verbunden, so dass ein Can receive contact elements for making an electrically conductive connection with a cable or with the strands of a cable. Usually, the contact elements are firmly connected to the contact carrier element, so that a
Verschieben durch von außen einwirkende Kräfte des Move by external forces of the
Kontaktelements nicht möglich ist. Wird die von außen einwirkende Kraft zu groß, so kann das Kontaktelement bzw. die Verbindung mit dem Kontaktträgerelement zerstört werden. Eine derartig große, von außen einwirkende Kraft kann beispielsweise dadurch entstehen, wenn das Kabel aus einem massiven Leiter ausgebildet ist, welcher bei der Verlegung des Kabels in die gewünschte Position gebogen werden muss. Dies kann insbesondere dann auftreten, wenn das als massiver Leiter ausgebildete Kabel bereits in dem Steckverbinder bzw. in dem Kontaktelement des Contact element is not possible. If the force acting from the outside is too great, the contact element or the connection with the contact carrier element can be destroyed. Such a large, externally acting force can for example arise when the cable is formed of a solid conductor, which must be bent in the laying of the cable in the desired position. This can occur in particular when the cable designed as a solid conductor is already in the connector or in the contact element of the
Steckverbinders angeordnet ist und das Kabel gebogen wird, so dass hohe Kräfte auf das Kabel und damit auf das Connector is arranged and the cable is bent, so that high forces on the cable and thus on the
Kontaktelement bzw. auf das Kontaktträgerelement wirken und dadurch die Kontaktierung im Steckverbinder unerwünscht unterbrochen werden kann. Beim Biegen eines derartigen massiven Kabels bzw. Leiters kann es zu einem Verschieben der einzelnen Litzen innerhalb des Kabels kommen, wobei sich die Litzen dabei unterschiedlich stark zueinander verschieben können. Bei einer derartigen Verschiebung kann beispielsweise eine Litze eine derartig große Kraft auf das Kontaktelement, in welchem die Litze zur Kontaktierung angeordnet ist, aufbringen, dass die Kontaktierung Contact element or act on the contact carrier element and thereby the contact in the connector can be interrupted undesirable. When bending such a massive cable or conductor, it can lead to a displacement of the individual strands within the cable, wherein the strands can move different degrees to each other. In such a shift can For example, a strand such a large force on the contact element, in which the strand is arranged for contacting, apply that the contact
unterbrochen wird. is interrupted.
Aufgabe der Erfindung ist es daher, einen Steckverbinder zur Verfügung zu stellen, bei welchem auch bei Aufbringung einer relativ großen Kraft auf das in dem Steckverbinder angeordnete Kabel eine sichere Kontaktierung gewährleistet werden kann. The object of the invention is therefore to provide a connector, in which a reliable contact can be ensured even when applying a relatively large force to the cable arranged in the connector.
Die Lösung der Aufgabe erfolgt erfindungsgemäß durch die Merkmale des Anspruchs 1. Vorteilhafte Ausgestaltungen der Erfindung sind in den Unteransprüchen angegeben. The object is achieved by the features of claim 1. Advantageous embodiments of the invention are specified in the dependent claims.
Der erfindungsgemäße Steckverbinder weist ein The connector according to the invention has a
Kontaktträgerelement auf, wobei in dem Kontaktträgerelement ein Kontaktelement zur Aufnahme einer Litze eines Kabels angeordnet ist, wobei erfindungsgemäß das Kontaktelement in dem Kontaktträgerelement fixiert ist, wobei bei Ausübung einer Kraft auf das Kontaktelement, welche größer ist als die Haltekraft der Fixierung, die Fixierung lösbar ist und das Kontaktelement beweglich in dem Kontaktträgerelement gelagert ist. Contact carrier element, wherein in the contact carrier element, a contact element for receiving a strand of a cable is arranged, according to the invention, the contact element is fixed in the contact carrier element, wherein upon exercise of a force on the contact element, which is greater than the holding force of the fixation, the fixation is releasable and the contact element is movably mounted in the contact carrier element.
In dem Kontaktträgerelement sind vorzugsweise mehr als ein Kontaktelement vorgesehen, wobei jede einzelne Litze des Kabels in jeweils einem Kontaktelement in dem In the contact carrier element more than one contact element are preferably provided, wherein each individual strand of the cable in each case a contact element in the
Kontaktträgerelement angeordnet ist. Die Litzen bzw. das Kabel ist dabei vorzugsweise als besonders starre Litzen bzw. Kabel ausgebildet. Erfindungsgemäß kann das Contact carrier element is arranged. The strands or the cable is preferably formed as a particularly rigid strands or cables. According to the invention that
Kontaktelement in dem Kontaktträgerelement zwei Contact element in the contact carrier element two
verschiedene Zustände aufweisen. In dem ersten Zustand ist das Kontaktelement fest in dem Kontaktträgerelement have different states. In the first state, the contact element is fixed in the contact carrier element
fixiert, so dass es nicht innerhalb des Kontaktträgerelements bewegt werden kann. In diesem Zustand erfolgt vorzugsweise beispielsweise das Einführen der Litze in das Kontaktelement, so dass während des Anschlusses der Litze an dem Steckverbinder keine Verschiebung des fixed so that it is not within the Contact carrier element can be moved. In this state, preferably, for example, the insertion of the strand in the contact element, so that during the connection of the strand to the connector no displacement of the
Kontaktelements möglich ist, um eine möglichst sichere Verbindung bzw. einen möglichst sicheren Anschluss Contact element is possible to ensure the safest possible connection or a safe connection
herstellen zu können. In dem ersten, fixierten Zustand ist das Kontaktelement vorzugsweise in einer Mittelstellung entlang der Längsachse des Kontaktträgerelements to be able to produce. In the first, fixed state, the contact element is preferably in a middle position along the longitudinal axis of the contact carrier element
angeordnet. Mittelstellung bedeutet hierbei, dass hinter und vor dem Kontaktelement in Längsrichtung des arranged. Middle position here means that behind and in front of the contact element in the longitudinal direction of the
Kontaktträgerelements Bewegungsraum für das Kontaktelement frei ist, so dass das Kontaktelement in axialer Richtung in eine Position rechts und links von der Mittelstellung verschiebbar ist. In dem zweiten Zustand ist das Contact carrier element movement space for the contact element is free, so that the contact element in the axial direction is displaceable in a position right and left of the center position. In the second state that is
Kontaktelement nicht ortsfest in dem Kontaktträgerelement fixiert, sondern kann innerhalb des Kontaktträgerelements bewegt werden. Zur Überführung des Kontaktelements von dem ersten Zustand in den zweiten Zustand ist eine Kraft notwendig, welche auf das Kontaktelement aufgebracht werden muss, welche größer ist als die Haltekraft, welche das Kontaktelement ortsfest in dem Kontaktträgerelement  Contact element not fixed in the fixed contact carrier element, but can be moved within the contact carrier element. For the transfer of the contact element from the first state to the second state, a force is necessary, which must be applied to the contact element, which is greater than the holding force, which fixes the contact element in the contact carrier element
fixiert. Eine derartige Kraft kann beispielsweise dadurch aufgebracht werden, indem das Kabel, welches in dem fixed. Such a force can for example be applied by the cable, which in the
Steckverbinder angeordnet ist, gebogen wird, wodurch eine Verschiebebewegung der einzelnen Litzen des Kabels erzeugt wird. Wirkt eine derartige Kraft auf das Kontaktelement, welche größer ist als die Haltekraft der Fixierung, wird die Fixierung gelöst, so dass das Kontaktelement nicht mehr fixiert in dem Kontaktträgerelement angeordnet ist, sondern beweglich in dem Kontaktträgerelement gelagert ist. In diesem Zustand kann das Kontaktelement entsprechend der auf das Kontaktelement wirkenden Kraft innerhalb des Connector is arranged, is bent, whereby a displacement movement of the individual strands of the cable is generated. Acts such a force on the contact element, which is greater than the holding force of the fixation, the fixation is released, so that the contact element is no longer fixedly arranged in the contact carrier element, but is movably mounted in the contact carrier element. In this state, the contact element according to the force acting on the contact element within the
Kontaktträgerelements bewegt werden. Dadurch können die beim Biegen des Kabels entstehenden Längendifferenzen zwischen den einzelnen Litzen ausgeglichen werden, wodurch verhindert werden kann, dass die Kontaktierung der Litzen in dem Steckverbinder unterbrochen bzw. beschädigt wird. Dadurch ist es möglich, eine besonders sichere Contact carrier element to be moved. This allows the resulting differences in the bending of the cable length differences be balanced between the individual strands, which can be prevented that the contact of the strands is broken or damaged in the connector. This makes it possible to be a particularly secure
Kontaktierung zu gewährleisten, welche auch dann noch gewährleistet werden kann, wenn das bereits in dem Contacting, which can still be guaranteed even if that is already in the
Steckverbinder angeordnete Kabel durch Aufbringung hoher Kräfte gebogen werden muss. Nach einer vorteilhaften Ausgestaltung der Erfindung weist das Kontaktelement eine Leiteranschlussklemme zur Aufnahme der Litze und einen Steckkontakt auf, wobei bei Ausübung einer Kraft auf das Kontaktelement, welche größer ist als die Haltekraft der Fixierung, die Leiteranschlussklemme beweglich in dem Kontaktträgerelement gelagert ist. Somit besteht das Kontaktelement vorzugsweise aus einer Connector arranged cable must be bent by applying high forces. According to an advantageous embodiment of the invention, the contact element has a conductor connection terminal for receiving the stranded wire and a plug contact, wherein upon exertion of a force on the contact element, which is greater than the holding force of the fixation, the conductor connection terminal is movably mounted in the contact carrier element. Thus, the contact element preferably consists of a
Leiteranschlussklemme und einem Steckkontakt, wobei die Leiteranschlussklemme beispielsweise fest mit dem Conductor terminal and a plug-in contact, the conductor terminal, for example, fixed to the
Steckkontakt verbunden sein kann. Die Leiteranschlussklemme dient dazu, eine Litze des Kabels aufzunehmen, um die Plug contact can be connected. The conductor terminal is used to receive a wire of the cable to the
Kontaktierung herzustellen. Ist die Leiteranschlussklemme beispielsweise fest mit dem Steckkontakt verbunden, so ist bei einer Lösung der Fixierung sowohl die  Establish contact. If the conductor connection terminal, for example, firmly connected to the plug contact, so is in a solution of the fixation both the
Leiteranschlussklemme als auch der Steckkontakt beweglich in dem Kontaktträgerelement gelagert, wobei die  Conductor terminal and the plug contact movably mounted in the contact carrier element, wherein the
Leiteranschlussklemme und der Steckkontakt eine voneinander abhängige, gleichartige Bewegung ausüben können. Ist die Leiteranschlussklemme fest mit dem Steckkontakt verbunden, kann in dem zweiten, beweglich gelagerten Zustand eine schwimmende Lagerung der Leiteranschlussklemme vorgesehen sein, wobei eine Bewegung der Leiteranschlussklemme und damit des Steckkontakts in axialer Richtung entlang der Längsachse des Kontaktelements möglich ist, um die beim Biegen des Kabels entstehenden Längendifferenzen zwischen den einzelnen Litzen ausgleichen zu können. Dabei kann es bevorzugt vorgesehen sein, dass zwischen der Leiteranschlussklemme und dem Steckkontakt ein flexibles, elektrisch leitendes Verbindungselement vorgesehen ist. Bei einer derartigen Ausgestaltung des Steckverbinders ist vorzugsweise lediglich die Leiteranschlussklemme beweglich in dem Kontaktelement gelagert, wohingegen der Steckkontakt auch in dem zweiten Zustand ortsfest in dem Kontaktelement angeordnet ist. Bei einer Ausübung einer Kraft auf das Kontaktelement, welche größer ist als die Haltekraft der Fixierung erfolgt daher eine Bewegung der Conductor terminal and the plug contact an interdependent, similar movement can exercise. If the conductor connection terminal is firmly connected to the plug contact, a floating mounting of the conductor connection terminal may be provided in the second, movably mounted state, wherein a movement of the conductor connection terminal and thus of the plug contact in the axial direction along the longitudinal axis of the contact element is possible in order to prevent the bending of the Cable to compensate for the resulting differences in length between the individual strands. It may preferably be provided that a flexible, electrically conductive connecting element is provided between the conductor terminal and the plug contact. In such an embodiment of the connector, preferably only the conductor terminal is movably mounted in the contact element, whereas the plug contact is arranged fixed in the contact element in the second state. Upon exercise of a force on the contact element, which is greater than the holding force of the fixation is therefore a movement of the
Leiteranschlussklemme relativ zu dem Steckkontakt. Mittels des flexiblen, elektrisch leitenden Verbindungselements erfolgt eine elektrische Verbindung der in die  Conductor terminal relative to the plug contact. By means of the flexible, electrically conductive connecting element is an electrical connection in the
Leiteranschlussklemme eingeführten Litze mit dem Conductor terminal inserted lead with the
Steckkontakt. Bei einer derartigen Ausgestaltung ist es möglich, dass die Leiteranschlussklemme des Kontaktelements sowohl einen Winkelversatz als auch einen Höhenversatz der in das Kontaktelement bzw. die Leiteranschlussklemme eingeführten Litze ausgleichen kann. Dadurch ist eine fliegende Lagerung der Leiteranschlussklemme möglich. Das Verbindungselement kann die Kräfte bei Schrägstellung der Litze aufnehmen. Dadurch ist es möglich, dass ein  Plug contact. In such an embodiment, it is possible that the conductor terminal of the contact element can compensate for both an angular offset and a height offset of introduced into the contact element or the conductor terminal strand. As a result, a flying storage of the conductor terminal is possible. The connecting element can absorb the forces when the strand is inclined. This makes it possible for that
konstanter Druck und ein konstanter Übergangswiderstand in dem Kontaktelement realisierbar ist, da die constant pressure and a constant contact resistance in the contact element can be realized, as the
Leiteranschlussklemme die entsprechende Position der Litze annehmen kann. Bei einer derartigen Ausgestaltung mit einem flexiblen, elektrisch leitenden Verbindungselement zwischen der Leiteranschlussklemme und dem Steckkontakt ist somit nicht nur ein axialer Längenausgleich möglich, sondern zudem auch ein durch die Längenverschiebung hervorgerufener Winkelversatz und/oder Höhenversatz der in die  Conductor terminal can take the appropriate position of the strand. In such an embodiment with a flexible, electrically conductive connecting element between the conductor terminal and the plug contact thus not only an axial length compensation is possible, but also caused by the longitudinal displacement angle offset and / or height offset in the
Leiteranschlussklemme eingeführten Litze. Das Conductor connection terminal inserted stranded wire. The
Verbindungselement ist dabei vorzugsweise fest an der Connecting element is preferably fixed to the
Leiteranschlussklemme mit einem ersten Ende und mit einem dem ersten Ende gegenüberliegenden zweiten Ende fest an dem Steckkontakt angeordnet, wobei die Befestigung an der Conductor terminal with a first end and with a the first end opposite the second end fixed to the plug contact, wherein the attachment to the
Leiteranschlussklemme und dem Steckkontakt beispielsweise durch Schweißen, wie beispielsweise Widerstandsschweißen, Löten und/oder Nieten erfolgen kann. Conductor terminal and the plug contact, for example by welding, such as resistance welding, soldering and / or riveting can be done.
Das flexible, elektrisch leitende Verbindungselement ist vorzugsweise aus einem aus einem elastischen Material ausgebildeten Metalldraht hergestellt. Ein derartiger The flexible, electrically conductive connecting element is preferably made of a formed of an elastic material metal wire. Such a
Metalldraht kann beispielsweise ein Kupferdraht sein, welcher eine besonders hohe Elastizität aufweist, um kleinste Verschiebebewegungen der Leiteranschlussklemme, hervorgerufen durch die in der Leiteranschlussklemme eingeführte Litze, ausgleichen kann. Metal wire may for example be a copper wire, which has a particularly high elasticity, to compensate for the slightest displacement movements of the conductor terminal, caused by the introduced in the conductor terminal strand.
Die Fixierung des Kontaktelements ist vorteilhafterweise mittels mindestens eines an dem Kontaktelement angeordneten Rastmittels ausgebildet. Dieses an dem Kontaktelement angeordnete Rastmittel kann zur Fixierung des The fixation of the contact element is advantageously formed by means of at least one locking element arranged on the contact element. This arranged on the contact element locking means can for fixing the
Kontaktelements in dem ersten Zustand beispielsweise in einer an dem Kontaktträgerelement ausgebildeten Öffnung einhaken, wobei durch Ausübung einer Kraft auf das Hooking contact element in the first state, for example, in an opening formed on the contact carrier element, wherein by applying a force on the
Rastmittel, welche größer ist als die Haltekraft der Locking means which is greater than the holding force of
Fixierung in der Öffnung, das Rastmittel aus der Öffnung aushaken kann, um eine Relativverschiebung des Fixation in the opening, the locking means can unhook from the opening to a relative displacement of the
Kontaktelements zu dem Kontaktträgerelement erlauben zu können. Das Rastmittel ist vorzugsweise an der  To allow contact element to the contact carrier element. The locking means is preferably on the
