The present invention relates to a high-current connector for transmitting electrical currents with at least one contact element for establishing an electrical contact between an inner Stromleitelement and an outer Stromleitelement, wherein the contact element comprises a plurality of spring elements for electrical Vielpunktkontaktieren between the inner Stromleitelement and the outer Stromleitelement the contact element is arranged in a housing together with the outer Stromleitelement such that the spring elements electrically contact the outer Stromleitelement on a radial outer side of the contact element and that an inner Stromleitelement at a plug-side end of the Hochstromsteckverbinders is inserted into the housing such that the spring elements a radial inner side of the contact element, the inner conductor element contact, according to the preamble of claim 1.
Aus der DE 103 24 492 B3 ist eine hochstrombelastbare Verbindungsvorrichtung sowie ein zugehöriges Kontaktierungselemente bekannt, wobei das Kontaktierungselement eine Vielzahl von Federelementen zur Vielpunktkontaktierung zwischen einem inneren Stromleiterelement und einem äußeren Stromleiterelement aufweist. Die Federelemente sind in einer hülsenförmigen Grundstruktur zwischen einem oberen und einem unteren ringförmigen Trägerelement derart angeordnet, dass sich diese beim Einstecken des inneren Stromleiterelementes in das äußere Stromleiterelement torsionsartig verdrehen. From DE 103 24 492 B3 a high current carrying connection device and an associated contacting elements is known, wherein the contacting element a plurality of spring elements for Has multi-point contact between an inner conductor element and an outer conductor element. The spring elements are arranged in a sleeve-shaped basic structure between an upper and a lower annular support element such that they twist torsionally upon insertion of the inner conductor element in the outer conductor element.
Der Erfindung liegt die Aufgabe zugrunde, einen Hochstromsteckverbinder der o.g. Art hinsichtlich des Anwendungsbereiches zu erweitern und hinsichtlich der Herstellung und Montage zu verbessern. The invention has for its object to provide a high current connector of o.g. Extend the type of application and improve its production and assembly.
Diese Aufgabe wird erfindungsgemäß durch einen Hochstromsteckverbinder der o.g. Art mit den in Anspruch 1 gekennzeichneten Merkmalen gelöst. Vorteilhafte Ausgestaltungen der Erfindung sind in den weiteren Ansprüchen beschrieben. This object is achieved by a high current connector of the o.g. Art solved with the features characterized in claim 1. Advantageous embodiments of the invention are described in the further claims.
Bei einem Hochstromsteckverbinder der o.g. Art ist es erfindungsgemäß vorgesehen, dass das Gehäuse an dem steckseitigen Ende des Hochstromsteckverbinders das äußere Stromleitelement in axialer Richtung über einen vorbestimmten Abschnitt überragt und im Bereich dieses vorbestimmten Abschnittes einen sich radial nach innen erhebenden Gehäuseabschnitt derart aufweist, dass das Kontaktelement an diesem sich erhebenden Gehäuseabschnitt anschlagend axial innerhalb des Gehäuses fixiert ist. In a high-current connector of o.g. It is inventively provided that the housing at the plug-side end of the high-current connector, the outer Stromleitelement projects beyond a predetermined section in the axial direction and in the region of this predetermined section has a radially inwardly upraising housing section such that the contact element on this uplifting housing section stop axially fixed within the housing.
Dies hat den Vorteil, dass zum axialen Fixieren des Kontakteiementes innerhalb des Hochstromsteckverbinders keine zusätzliche Hinterschneidung am äußeren Stromleitelement erforderlich ist, sondern die axiale Fixierung mit der Montage des Gehäuses automatisch hergestellt ist. Dies reduziert Fertigungskosten und Montageaufwand für den Hochstromsteckverbinder. This has the advantage that for axially fixing the Kontakteiementes within the high-current connector no additional undercut on the outer Stromleitelement is required, but the axial fixation with the assembly of the housing is made automatically. This reduces manufacturing costs and assembly costs for the high-current connector.
Eine besonders verwindungssteife Ausbildung des Hochstromsteckverbinders mit einer hohen Anzahl von Kontaktpunkten zu dem inneren und äußeren Stromleitelement erzielt man dadurch, dass das Kontaktelement im Querschnitt rechteckförmig ausgebildet ist. Weiterhin ist der Hochstromsteckverbinder auf einfache Weise in rechteckförmige Steckergehäuse integrierbar. Zusätzlich steht eine kostengünstige Hochstromsteckverbindung für rechteckförmige innere und äußere Stromleitelemente zur Verfügung, wobei überraschenderweise gleichzeitig hohe elektrische Ströme übertragen werden können. Durch die rechteckige Ausbildung des Kontaktierungselementes können kostengünstige und zeitsparende Herstellungsverfahren für den Hochstromsteckverbinder verwendet werden. A particularly torsionally rigid design of the high-current connector with a high number of contact points to the inner and outer Stromleitelement achieved by the fact that the contact element is rectangular in cross-section. Furthermore, the high-current connector can be easily integrated into rectangular plug housing. Additionally stands an inexpensive high-current connector for rectangular inner and outer Stromleitelemente available, surprisingly high electrical currents can be transmitted simultaneously. The rectangular design of the contacting element cost-effective and time-saving manufacturing process for the high-current connector can be used.
Einen mechanisch besonders stabilen Hochstromsteckverbinder erzielt man dadurch, dass das Kontaktierungselement an dessen axialen Enden jeweils einen rechteckförmigen Trägerrahmen aufweist, wobei die Federelemente an deren axialen Enden jeweils mit einem Trägerrahmen mechanisch und elektrisch verbunden sind. A mechanically particularly stable high-current connector is achieved in that the contacting element has at its axial ends in each case a rectangular support frame, wherein the spring elements are mechanically and electrically connected at their axial ends in each case with a support frame.
Eine besonders stärke torsionsartige Verwiridung der Federelemente mit besonders hoher Kontaktkraft beim Zusammenstecken von innerem und äußerem Stromleitelement erzielt man dadurch, dass die Federelemente lamellenförmig ausgebildet und relativ zu den Trägerrahmen verkippt sind. A particularly strong torsional Verwiridung the spring elements with a particularly high contact force when mating inner and outer Stromleitelement achieved by the fact that the spring elements are lamellar and tilted relative to the support frame.
Eine einfache und mechanisch funktionssichere axiale Fixierung erzielt man dadurch, dass an einem von den Federelementen abgewandten axialen Ende mindestens eines Trägerrahmens mindestens eine Lasche angeordnet ist. Diese Lasche schlägt an dem sich radial nach innen erhebenden Gehäuseabschnitt an. A simple and mechanically functionally reliable axial fixation is achieved by arranging at least one tab on at least one support frame facing away from the spring elements. This tab abuts against the radially inwardly uplifting housing section.

Hochstromsteckverbinders of FIG. 1 in a perspective view and Fig. 4, the contact element of the high current connector of FIG. 1 in a perspective view.
Die in Fig. 1 bis 4 dargestellte, bevorzugte Ausführungsform eines erfindungsgemäßen Hochstromsteckverbinders umfasst ein Gehäuse mit einem Gehäuseoberteil 10 und einem Gehäuseunterteil 12 sowie ein äußeres Stromleitelement 14 und ein Kontaktelement 16. Das Kontaktelement 16 ist als Federlamellenkorb mit Federlamellen 18 als Federkontaktelemente ausgebildet, der einen ersten Trägerrahmen 20 und einen zweiten Trägerrahmen 22 aufweist, zwischen denen die Federlamellen 18 angeordnet sind. The illustrated in Fig. 1 to 4, preferred embodiment of a high-current connector according to the invention comprises a housing having a housing upper part 10 and a lower housing part 12 and an outer Stromleitelement 14 and a contact element 16. The contact element 16 is formed as a spring lamellae with spring blades 18 as spring contact elements, the one first support frame 20 and a second support frame 22, between which the spring blades 18 are arranged.
Die Federlamellen 18 sind an ihren gegenüberliegenden Enden mit jeweils einem der Trägerrahmen 20, 22 elektrisch sowie mechanisch verbunden und bezüglich dieser verkippt, so dass die Federlamellen 18 in einen Raum radial innerhalb sowie radial außerhalb der Trägerrahmen 20, 22 bzw. Federlamellenkorbes hinein ragen. The spring blades 18 are connected at their opposite ends with one of the support frame 20, 22 electrically and mechanically and tilted with respect to this, so that the spring blades 18 in a space radially inside and radially outside the support frame 20, 22 or spring lamella protrude.
Das Kontaktelement 16 ist in dem äußeren Stromleitelement 14 derart angeordnet, dass die Federlamellen 18 am radial äußeren Umfang des Kontaktelementes 16 das äußere Stromleitelement 14 elektrisch kontaktieren. The contact element 16 is arranged in the outer Stromleitelement 14 such that the spring blades 18 on the radially outer circumference of the contact element 16, the outer Stromleitelement 14 electrically contact.
Der Federlamellenkorb 16 mit den Federlamellen 18 und den Trägerrahmen 20, 22 ist im Querschnitt rechteckig ausgebildet. The spring lamella 16 with the spring blades 18 and the support frame 20, 22 is rectangular in cross-section.
Zum Herstellen eines elektrischen Kontaktes ist ein ebenfalls rechteckförmiges inneres Stromleitelement (nicht dargestellt) in das Gehäuse 10, 12 und in das Kontaktelement 16 derart einsteckbar, dass die Federlamellen 18 an einem inneren Umfang des Kontaktelementes 16 das innere Stromleitelement elektrisch kontaktieren. Das Kontaktelement 16 ist somit zwischen dem inneren und äußeren Stromleitelement 14 angeordnet und überträgt elektrischen Strom zwischen diesen. Durch den mechanischen Kontakt zwischen den Federlamellen 18 und den Stromleitelementen 14 werden die Federlamellen 18 um deren Längsachse verdreht, so dass sich eine Torsion der Federlamellen 18 ergibt, die die Federlamellen 18 mit einer entsprechenden elastischen Federkraft gegen die Stromleitelemente 14 drückt, so dass für den elektrischen Kontakt eine entsprechende Kontaktfläche und ein entsprechender Kontaktdruck zur Verfügung steht. For producing an electrical contact, a likewise rectangular inner Stromleitelement (not shown) in the housing 10, 12 and in the contact element 16 can be inserted such that the spring blades 18 at an inner periphery of the contact element 16 electrically contact the inner Stromleitelement. The contact element 16 is thus arranged between the inner and outer Stromleitelement 14 and transmits electrical power between them. Due to the mechanical contact between the spring blades 18 and the Stromleitelementen 14, the spring blades 18 are rotated about its longitudinal axis, so that a torsion of the spring blades 18 results, which presses the spring blades 18 with a corresponding elastic spring force against the Stromleitelemente 14, so that for the electrical contact one corresponding contact surface and a corresponding contact pressure is available.
An jeweiligen axialen Enden der Trägerrahmen 20, 22, die von den Federlamellen 18 abgewandt sind, sind Laschen 24 angeordnet. Diese dienen zum axialen Fixieren des Kontaktelementes 16 innerhalb des Gehäuses 10, 12. Hierzu sind entsprechende Anschläge ausbildende Erhebungen 26 durch die zusammengesetzten Gehäusehälften 10, 12 ausgebildet. Hierdurch sind keine Hinterschneidungen am äußeren Stromleitelement 14 notwendig, sondern die axiale Fixierung des Kontaktelementes 16 ergibt sich automatisch durch das zusammensetzen der Gehäusehälften 10, 12. Hierzu sind die Gehäusehälften 10, 12 derart ausgebildet, dass diese das äußere Stromleitelement 14 in axialer Richtung an demjenigen axialen Ende überragen, an dem das innere Stromleitelement in das Gehäuse 10, 12 bzw. das Kontaktelement 16 bzw. das äußere Stromleitelement 14 einsteckbar ist (steckseitiges Ende). Gleichzeitig erheben sich die Gehäusehälften 10, 12 im Bereich des axialen Überragens radial nach innen und bilden dadurch Erhebungen 26, die axiale Anschläge für die Laschen 24 ausbilden. Gleichzeitig fixieren diese Anschläge der Erhebungen 26 auch das äußere Stromleitelement 14 innerhalb des Gehäuses 10, 12 in axialer Richtung. At respective axial ends of the support frame 20, 22, which are remote from the spring blades 18, tabs 24 are arranged. These are used for axially fixing the contact element 16 within the housing 10, 12. For this purpose, corresponding stops forming elevations 26 through the composite housing halves 10, 12 are formed. As a result, no undercuts on the outer Stromleitelement 14 are necessary, but the axial fixation of the contact element 16 results automatically by the composition of the housing halves 10, 12. For this purpose, the housing halves 10, 12 are formed such that they the outer Stromleitelement 14 in the axial direction of that project beyond the axial end, on which the inner Stromleitelement in the housing 10, 12 and the contact element 16 and the outer Stromleitelement 14 can be inserted (plug-side end). At the same time, the housing halves 10, 12 rise radially inwardly in the region of the axial projection and thereby form elevations 26, which form axial stops for the tabs 24. At the same time fix these attacks the projections 26 and the outer Stromleitelement 14 within the housing 10, 12 in the axial direction.
