Definitions

  • Seals for multiple connections can be designed as integral seals, also referred to as collective seals or sealing mats. Such a seal can seal several ports simultaneously.
  • the sealing mat may have a plurality of cable bushings, can be passed through the cable or contact plug to a plug contact receiver. However, if connections are not made at all positions of the sealing mat, an open cable feed-through can remain at these points, through which dirt and moisture can reach the plug-in contact receiver.
  • a sealing mat for the tight passage of pipes has a first outer side and a second outer side opposite the first outer side. Furthermore, the sealing mat has at least one line leadthrough which connects the first outer side to the second outer side. In this case, the line leadthrough has a first end region, which adjoins the first outer side of the sealing mat, and a second end region, which adjoins the second outer side of the sealing mat.
  • a protective skin is arranged on the cable feedthrough. The protective skin is arranged in the first end region or in the second end region of the conduit bushing and seals the first outer side from the second outer side in an intact state.
  • the idea of the invention is based on providing a sealing mat which, after its manufacture, is initially tightly closed by means of protective skins. Furthermore, the protective skins are arranged in the line bushings so that they are located near the surface of the sealing mat and in this way a controlled removal or opening of the protective skin is possible without that parts of the protective skin inside the Passing cable entry and there prevent electrical contact or optimal sealing.
  • the sealing mat of the invention can prevent entrainment of particles in the sealing area, which can provoke a leak.
  • the sealing mat according to the invention offers protection against dirt and moisture both on occupied and unoccupied contact points. Furthermore, the sealing mat can ensure electrical insulation of the lines performed.
  • the sealing mat can be used for example in a connector structure.
  • the sealing mat may be arranged, for example, at an interface of a measuring unit and a harness connector.
  • the lines can be, for example, electrical lines that have, for example, a contact plug and cable.
  • the sealing mat has a first outer side and a second outer side opposite this side.
  • the sealing mat can be designed symmetrically, so that the first outer side can be converted by reflection on an axis of symmetry in the second outer side.
  • the first outer side can be designed as a contact insertion side, through which, for example, a contact plug penetrates into the sealing mat.
  • the second outer side can be designed as the side facing away from the contact plug and the contact receiver facing side.
  • a line or a plug contact can be performed from the first outer side to the second outer side.
  • the sealing mat can have a plurality of cable bushings.
  • sealing elements such as lamellae may be provided, which bear when performing a contact plug through the cable bushing on the contact plug and thus produce a seal after the protective skin is broken.
  • the arrangement of the protective skin in the vicinity of the outer sides or walls of the sealing mat a maximum distance to the sealing elements, is achieved in the interior of the cable feedthrough. This ensures that the split or torn protective skin does not reach the area of the sealing elements.
  • the lead bushing has first and second end portions disposed at opposite ends of the lead bushing.
  • the end regions can each amount to 30%, 20% or 10% of the total length of the cable bushing.
  • the protective skin is arranged on or in the line bushing in the first or second end region.
  • the protective skin is in the vicinity of the surface of the sealing mat and can be manually or automatically removed before inserting contact plugs into the cable feedthrough in an additional step.
  • the protective skin can be easily pierced by means of the contact plug.
  • the protective skin is preferably arranged in the vicinity of that outer side which faces the contact plug and faces away from the contact plug receiver.
  • the protective skin may for example be designed as a partition or foil, which consists of the same material as the mat.
  • the sealing mat and the protective skin can be made of silicone, for example.
  • the protective skin can be made so thin that it can be pierced by a contact plug with little force.
  • the protective skin In the intact condition, ie if no contact plug has severed the protective skin, the protective skin provides, for example, an airtight or hermetic seal from the first to the second outer side. In the pierced or perforated state of the outer skin, a seal from the first to the second outer side is ensured by sealing elements located in the conduit passage, for example sealing blades, in cooperation with the contact plug.
  • the protective skin is arranged in a plane which is formed by the first outer side or which is formed by the second outer side.
  • the protective skin lies in the plane of the outer contour or on the outer side of the sealing mat. In this way, the protective skin for removal before passing through the plug contacts can be easily accessible.
  • the protective skin is made in one piece with the sealing mat.
  • the protective skin is made integral with the sealing mat.
  • the protective skin can be formed in a casting process as part of the sealing mat.
  • a mold may be provided which consists of two halves and in which one of the halves pins or stamps are arranged. When assembling the two halves, the pins are slightly spaced from the bottom of the second half of the mold. After pouring a Guss stolene forms between the punches and the bottom of the second half of the protective skin.
  • the protective skin has the same material as the sealing mat.
  • the protective skin may consist of the same material as the sealing mat.
  • the material which is contained in both the sealing mat and in the protective skin is an elastomer.
  • the elastomer may be, for example, a plastic which is elastically deformable and deformed, for example, when a force is exerted and then returns to its original shape.
  • the material may be silicone or rubber.
  • the sealing mat and the protective skin can be made entirely of silicone or rubber or combinations of these materials.
  • the protective skin has a first region with a first material thickness and a second region with a second material thickness.
  • the second material thickness is smaller than the first material thickness.
  • predetermined breaking points or notches can be provided in the protective skin, which ensure a controlled puncture of the protective skin by a line or a contact plug.
  • the first and second material thicknesses may correspond to different thicknesses of the protective skin.
  • the protective skin is thinner or more fragile than in the first area.
  • perforations may be provided in the second region, which predetermine a predetermined breaking point, but which does not completely penetrate the protective skin.
  • the protective skin on a cable feedthrough may have a plurality of first and a plurality of second regions.
  • the second region may be implemented as a perforated line or notch or as two intersecting perforated lines.
  • the protective skin is designed to be broken in the second area by a line or a contact plug.
  • the second region is designed as a predetermined breaking point.
  • the protective skin is thin compared to the dimension of the longitudinal axis of the line feedthrough.
  • the sealing mat on a sealing blade is arranged between the first end region and the second end region.
  • the sealing lamella for example, is arranged centrally in the cable feedthrough and thus as far away as possible from the protective skin. In this way, a success of the severed protective skin can be prevented in the region of the sealing blades and in this way a possible deterioration of the sealing function of the sealing blades can be prevented.
  • the protective skin has a first diameter.
  • the protective skin is arranged at a first distance from the sealing blade. The first distance is greater than the diameter of the protective skin.
  • the protective skin may for example be circular and have a diameter.
  • the distance between the arranged in the middle of the line bushing sealing blade to the protective skin can be a multiple of the diameter or a radius of the protective skin. In this way it can be ensured that the protective skin 19 does not get into the area of the sealing lamella when tearing.
  • the sealing mat may have one or more sealing blades, which are arranged in the line bushing in a central region.
  • the sealing fins can be designed as elevations to the longitudinal axis of the cable feedthrough out. In the area of the fins, the diameter of the cable feedthrough is reduced in comparison to the locations of the cable feedthrough without fins.
  • the sealing mat on a plurality of line bushings.
  • a method for producing a sealing mat described above comprises the steps of: providing a mold having a first and a second half; In this case, one or more punches is provided only on the first half of the mold, which correspond in shape to the line feedthrough of the sealing mat; Filling the mold with a material comprising elastomers.
  • the idea of the invention according to the second aspect is based on using, for the production of the above-described sealing mat, a mold on which pins or stamps are provided on only one side.
  • the number of pins can be halved in this way.
  • less precision is necessary because now no pins are used on opposite sides, which must meet exactly.
  • the mold is designed so that in the closed state of the mold, a distance between the bottom of the mold and the pins is formed, which corresponds to the thickness of the protective skin.
  • the mold can therefore be simplified and made more robust.
  • stamps have to be provided in both halves of a casting mold which prevent a filling of the filling compound over a certain contact pressure. With the method according to the invention, it is no longer necessary to touch or touch tool elements.
  • Fig. 1 is a contact plug system consisting of contact plugs 3, a sealing mat 1 and a contact plug receiver 5 shown. It shows Fig. 1A a representation of the system before performing the contact plug 3 through the sealing mat 1. In Fig. 1B the system is shown by passing the contact plug 3 through the sealing mat 1.
  • the system in Fig. 1 may represent an interface of a measuring unit to a harness connector.
  • the contact plug receiver 5 has chambers 7 which can receive the contact plug 3.
  • the sealing mat 1 can be positioned above the contact plug receiver 5 such that the cable feedthroughs 13 provided in the sealing mat 1 lie directly in front of the chambers 7.
  • the sealing mat 1 in this case has a first outer side 9, which faces the contact plugs 3. Furthermore, the sealing mat 1 has a second outer side 11, which faces the contact plug receiver 5.
  • the first outer side 9 is connected to the second outer side 11 by a plurality of line bushings 13.
  • the leadthroughs 13 have a first end portion 15 and a second end portion 17, which in connection with the 3 and 4 be explained in more detail.
  • a protective skin 19 is arranged in one of the end regions 15, 17 of the conduit bushing 13, that is to say in the immediate vicinity of an outer side 9, 11. Im in Fig. 1 illustrated embodiment, the protective skin 19 is arranged in the immediate vicinity or directly on the first outer side 9. The protective skin 19 may also lie directly in the plane of the first outer side 9.
  • the protective skins 19 are intact and the first outer side 9 is sealed by the second outer side 11 in this way.
  • the protective skins 19 can be broken through, for example, by contact plug 3 and reach through the cable feedthrough 13 of the sealing mat 1 into the chambers 7 of the contact plug receiver 5.
  • Fig. 1B are not all chambers 7 of the contact plug receiver 5 with contact plugs 3 occupied. Nevertheless, the contact plug receiver 5 and in particular the chambers 7 are protected from dirt and moisture by the sealing mat 1, since the protective skins 19 are intact at the unoccupied points. This saves a subsequent fitting of the unoccupied positions with separate sealing pins or holding plates, which is necessary with conventional open sealing mats. This can save costs and labor.
  • FIG. 2 is a plan view of the first outer side 9 of the sealing mat 1 is shown.
  • the sealing mat 1 may have a plurality of line feedthroughs 13, which are arranged for example in rows and columns.
  • Fig. 3 is a cross section through a sealing mat 1 along the line AA in Fig. 2 shown.
  • Fig. 3 illustrates the arrangement of the first end portion 15 and the second end portion 17 in the line feedthrough 13.
  • the first end 15 adjacent directly to the first outer side 9.
  • the second end portion 17 directly adjacent to the second outer side 11 of the sealing mat 1.
  • the Protective skin 19 may be arranged.
  • the protective skin 19 is arranged directly in the plane of the first outer side 9.
  • sealing lamellae 25 are arranged between the first end portion 15 and the second end portion 17 between the first end portion 15 and the second end portion 17 sealing lamellae 25 are arranged.
  • the sealing blades 25 form after piercing the protective skin 19 together with the contact plug 3, a seal from the first outer side 9 to the second outer side 11.
  • the fins 25 form a sealing region, for example, in Fig. 4 as a sealing blade area 27 is indicated.
  • FIG. 4A another embodiment of the sealing mat 1 is shown. It is Fig. 4A also a cross section along the line AA in Fig. 2 ,
  • the Protective skin 19 in the embodiment in Fig. 4 is arranged at a very small distance from the first outer side 9 of the sealing mat 1 in the first end region 15.
  • the protective skin 19 may be spaced a few millimeters from the first outer side 9.
  • the distance of the protective skin 19 from the sealing blade region 27, however, is sufficiently large and may be, for example, a multiple of the diameter of the protective skin.
  • the protective skin 19 is severed, for example, by a contact plug 3 in the middle and hangs or protrudes partially into the conduit bushing 13, it does not extend to the sealing lamella area 27 Fig. 4 the distance between the protective skin 19 and the sealing blade region 27 is denoted by B.
  • the half diameter of the line bushing 13 and the radius of the circular protective skin 19 is designated by A.
  • the distance B between the sealing blade region 27 and the protective skin 19 is several times greater than a radius A or a diameter of the protective skin 19, i. In this way it can be ensured that the torn protective skin 19 does not enter the sealing lamella region 27.
  • Fig. 4B an embodiment is shown in which the protective skin 19 is flush with the first outside. Furthermore, the sealing fins 25 are not arranged centrally in the line bushing 13, but closer to the second end region 17 than at the first end region 15. In this way, the distance B between the sealing blades 25 and the protective skin 19 is even greater than that in Fig. 4A ,
  • the cutting of the protective skin 19 can be carried out mechanically and / or automatically.
  • An automated method for opening the partition is eg in FIGS. 6A to 6C shown.
  • a tool 29 with sharp edges 31 on the partition in a first step ( Fig. 6A ) are placed on the partition 19.
  • the tool 29 has in its interior a cavity 33 in which a negative pressure can be generated.
  • the negative pressure can be generated for example by means of a pump 35. By generating the negative pressure, the partition is sucked and to the sharp edges 31 cut off ( Fig.
  • a collecting container 39 can be provided in the tool 29.
  • the protective skin 19 be carried out with predetermined breaking points 23, so that the contact plug 3, the protective skin 19 controlled break.
  • first regions 21 and second regions 23 may be provided in the protective skin, which have different material thicknesses.
  • the second regions 23 have a smaller material thickness than the first regions 21.
  • FIG. 5 four different embodiments of the second regions or predetermined breaking points 23 are shown.
  • Fig. 5A represents the execution of the predetermined breaking points as a curved cross, so that after piercing the protective skin 19 by a contact plug 3 four separate first regions 21 may arise.
  • the predetermined breaking point is designed as a central line, so that after piercing by means of a contact plug 3, two separate first regions 21 are formed.
  • Fig. 5C arise after the implementation of the contact plug 3 three separate areas.
