Description

Elektrisches Kontaktelement  Electrical contact element
Beschreibung description
Die Erfindung betrifft ein elektrisches Kontaktelement, welches aus Vollmaterial ausgearbeitet ist, und welches als Stiftkontakt oder als Buchsenkontakt ausgebildet ist, und welches einen Steckbereich und einen Anschlussbereich aufweist, wobei der Anschlussbereich als Crimpanschluss zur Kontaktierung eines elektrischen Leiters ausgebildet ist.  The invention relates to an electrical contact element, which is made of solid material, and which is designed as a pin contact or as a socket contact, and which has a plug-in area and a connection area, wherein the connection area is designed as a crimp connection for contacting an electrical conductor.
Derartige Kontaktelemente werden benötigt, um eine elektrische Verbindung zwischen einem elektrischen Leiter, insbesondere einem Litzenleiter, und einem Anschlussende eines Stift- oder Buchsenkontakts herzustellen. Such contact elements are needed to establish an electrical connection between an electrical conductor, in particular a stranded conductor, and a terminal end of a pin or socket contact.
Zum Anschluss von Litzenleitern an ein elektrisches Kontaktelement wird häufig die Anschlusstechnik des Crimpens gewählt. For connecting stranded conductors to an electrical contact element, the connection technique of crimping is frequently selected.
Daher tragen die Kontaktelemente an ihrem Leiteranschlussende eine axiale Bohrung, in der das abisolierte Ende des Litzenleiters eingeführt und durch Crimpung festgequetscht wird. Therefore, the contact elements carry at their conductor terminal end an axial bore, in which the stripped end of the stranded conductor is inserted and squeezed by crimping.
Stand der Technik State of the art
Die DE 88 040 92 U1 zeigt ein elektrisches Kontaktelement das in Stanz- Biegetechnik hergestellt wurde. Das elektrische Kontaktelement ist entweder als Stift- oder als Buchsenkontakt ausgebildet, wobei der Anschluss eines Litzenleiters an das Kontaktelement über eine Crimpung erfolgt. Der Crimp- bereich des Kontaktelementes ist im wesentlichen als U-förmiges offenes Element ausgebildet. Dieser offene Crimpbereich hat den Vorteil, dass Litzenleiter unterschiedlichen Durchmessers an das gleiche Kontaktelement angeschlossen werden können. DE 88 040 92 U1 shows an electrical contact element which was produced in stamping and bending technology. The electrical contact element is designed either as a pin contact or as a socket contact, the connection of a stranded conductor to the contact element being effected by crimping. The crimping area of the contact element is substantially U-shaped open Element formed. This open crimping range has the advantage that stranded conductors of different diameters can be connected to the same contact element.
Nachteilig bei den Kontaktelementen die in Stanz- Biegetechnik hergestellt wurden, ist, dass ihr elektrischer Widerstand wegen der Materialarmut höher ist als bei Kontaktelementen aus Vollmaterial. A disadvantage of the contact elements that were produced in stamping and bending technology, is that their electrical resistance is higher because of the low material than in contact elements made of solid material.
Aus der DE 1 992 567 A1 sind Kontaktelemente aus Vollmaterial bekannt, die einen Crimpbereich zum Anschluss von Litzenleitern aufweisen. Derartige Kontaktelemente werden beispielsweise gefertigt, indem ein Drahtstück definierter Länge abgetrennt wird und die Konturen des Kontaktelementes aus diesem Drahtstück z.B. mithilfe der Drehtechnik herausgearbeitet werden. Allerdings ist bei diesen Kontaktelementen der Crimpbereich als Hohlzylinder mit einer geschlossenen Mantelfläche ausgebildet. Dieser Crimpbereich ist nur zum Anschluss eines elektrischen Leiterkabels bestimmten Durchmessers geeignet. So müssen beim Anschließen von Litzenleitern mit geringfügig unterschiedlichen Durchmessern, jeweils unterschiedliche Kontaktelemente aus Vollmaterial verwendet werden. From DE 1 992 567 A1 contact elements made of solid material are known, which have a crimping area for connecting stranded conductors. Such contact elements are for example made by a piece of wire of defined length is separated and the contours of the contact element of this piece of wire, for. be worked out using the turning technique. However, in these contact elements of the crimp is formed as a hollow cylinder with a closed lateral surface. This crimping area is only suitable for connecting an electrical conductor cable of specific diameter. Thus, when connecting stranded conductors with slightly different diameters, each different contact elements made of solid material must be used.
Aufgabenstellung task
Die Aufgabe der Erfindung besteht darin, ein elektrisches Kontaktelement vorzuschlagen, welches einen geringen elektrischen Widerstand aufweist und welches gleichzeitig zur elektrischen Kontaktierung von Litzenleitern unterschiedlichen Durchmessers geeignet ist.  The object of the invention is to propose an electrical contact element, which has a low electrical resistance and which is suitable at the same time for the electrical contacting of stranded conductors of different diameters.
Die Aufgabe wird dadurch gelöst, dass der Anschlussbereich als Hohlzylinder geformt ist, der in axialer Richtung einen Schlitz enthält. The object is achieved in that the connection area is formed as a hollow cylinder containing a slot in the axial direction.
Vorteilhafte Ausgestaltungen der Erfindung sind in den Unteransprüchen angegeben. Wie bereits erwähnt, wird das elektrische Kontaktelement aus Vollmaterial ausgearbeitet. Dazu wird beispielsweise die Drehtechnik auf Kurven- oder CNC- gesteuerten Maschinen verwendet. Für den Schlitz im Anschlussbereich des Kontaktelements sind aber auch spanende Arbeitsschritte notwendig. Advantageous embodiments of the invention are specified in the subclaims. As already mentioned, the electrical contact element is made of solid material. For example, turning technology is used on cam- or CNC-controlled machines. For the slot in the connection region of the contact element but also cutting operations are necessary.
Der Kontaktbereich des Kontaktelementes kann sowohl als Stiftkontakt oder als Buchsenkontakt ausgebildet sein. Der Anschlussbereich ist als Crimpanschluss ausgebildet, um insbesondere Litzenleiter elektrisch kontaktieren zu können. The contact region of the contact element can be designed both as a pin contact or as a socket contact. The connection region is designed as a crimp connection in order to be able to contact in particular stranded conductors electrically.
Beim Crimpvorgang werden die Litzen eines anzuschließenden elektrischen Leiterkabels in den als Hohlzylinder ausgebildeten Anschlussbereich eingeführt. Der Hohlzylinder ist in axialer Richtung eingeschlitzt und ist dadurch seitlich geöffnet. Mithilfe eines geeigneten Crimpwerkzeugs wird eine Kraft auf die Mantelfläche des geschlitzten Hohlzylinders ausgeübt, so dass die gegenüberliegenden Schlitzkanten nach innen gebogen und eingerollt werden. Im bleibend verformten Anschlussbereich des Kontaktelementes befinden sich nunmehr die verdichteten Litzen des Leiterkabels. During the crimping process, the strands of an electrical conductor cable to be connected are inserted into the connecting region formed as a hollow cylinder. The hollow cylinder is slotted in the axial direction and is thereby opened laterally. Using a suitable crimping tool, a force is exerted on the lateral surface of the slotted hollow cylinder, so that the opposite slot edges are bent inward and rolled up. In the permanently deformed connection area of the contact element are now the compacted strands of the conductor cable.
Der geschlitzte Hohlzylinder ist zum Crimpanschluss von Litzenleitern verschiedenen Durchmessers geeignet. Ohne den axialen Schlitz würden sich im Crimp- bzw. Anschlussbereich bei Litzenleitern mit zu geringem Durchmesser Hohlräume bilden, die Oxidationsprozesse zulassen und die Kabelauszugskräfte negativ beeinflussen. The slotted hollow cylinder is suitable for crimping stranded conductors of different diameters. Without the axial slot cavities would form in the crimp or terminal area in stranded conductors with too small diameter, allow the oxidation processes and negatively affect the cable pull-out forces.
Aufgrund des geschlitzten Anschlussbereichs des erfindungsgemäßen Kontaktelementes können Leiterkabel verschiedenen Durchmessers elektrisch kontaktiert werden. Außerdem wird das Kontaktelement während der Stromführung vorteilhafterweise weniger stark erwärmt als ein Kontaktelement, dass in Stanz-Biegetechnik hergestellt wurde. Due to the slotted connection region of the contact element according to the invention conductor cables of different diameters can be electrically contacted. In addition, the contact element during the current flow is advantageously less heated than a contact element that was produced in stamping and bending technique.
In einer vorteilhaften Ausführungsform der Erfindung beträgt die Länge des axialen Schlitzes im Anschlussbereich mehr als die Hälfte der Länge des Hohlzylinders. Anders gesagt, der Hohlzylinder ist in axialer Richtung um mehr als die Hälfte seiner Länge eingeschlitzt. Dadurch wird verhindert, dass beim Crimpvorgang Risse in der Mantelfläche des Hohlzylinders entstehen. Durch die Risse kann Luft (aber auch andere Medien) an die Litzen des Leiterkabels gelangen. Dadurch können Oxidationsprozesse ausgelöst werden, die die elektrischen Eigenschaften des elektrischen Kontaktes, beispielsweise den Widerstand, verschlechtern. In an advantageous embodiment of the invention, the length of the axial slot in the connection region is more than half the length of the hollow cylinder. In other words, the hollow cylinder is in the axial direction more than half of its length slashed. This prevents the formation of cracks in the lateral surface of the hollow cylinder during the crimping process. Through the cracks, air (but also other media) can reach the strands of the conductor cable. As a result, oxidation processes can be triggered which worsen the electrical properties of the electrical contact, for example the resistance.
In einer weiteren vorteilhaften Ausbildung des Kontaktelementes ist der Hohlzylinder des Anschlussbereichs, zusätzlich zum axialen Schlitz, zumindest ein weiteres mal eingeschlitzt. Dieser zweite Schlitz ist im wesentlichen 90° zum ersten, axialen Schlitz ausgerichtet. Anders gesagt: Der zweite Schlitz ist quer zur Achse des ersten, axialen Schlitzes ausgebildet. In a further advantageous embodiment of the contact element of the hollow cylinder of the connection area, in addition to the axial slot, at least one more times slit. This second slot is aligned substantially 90 ° to the first, axial slot. In other words, the second slot is formed across the axis of the first axial slot.
In der Regel wird die Grundfläche des Hohlzylinderkörpers im Anschlussbereich des Kontaktelementes kreisförmig geformt sein. Aber auch andere Geometrische Formen wie Rechteck, Quadrat, Ellipse oder Oval können vorteilhaft sein und mithilfe der Drehtechnik oder Frästechnik realisiert werden. As a rule, the base surface of the hollow cylindrical body will be circular in the connection region of the contact element. But other geometric shapes such as rectangle, square, ellipse or oval can also be advantageous and can be realized by means of turning or milling technology.
Vorteilhafterweise ist zwischen Steck- und Anschlussbereich ein Ringelement ausgebildet. Das Ringelement ist scheibenförmig geformt und dient dazu, das Kontaktelement in einer dazu passenden Ausformung im Isolierkörper eines Steckverbinders zu fixieren. Advantageously, a ring element is formed between plug and connection area. The ring element is disc-shaped and serves to fix the contact element in a matching shape in the insulating body of a connector.
Wenn das Kontaktelement als Stiftkontakt ausgebildet ist, ist der Durchmesser des scheibenförmigen Ringelements größer ist als der Durchmesser des Stiftkontaktes. If the contact element is designed as a pin contact, the diameter of the disk-shaped ring element is greater than the diameter of the pin contact.
Wenn das Kontaktelement allerdings als Stiftkontakt ausgebildet ist, ist der Durchmesser des scheibenförmigen Ringelements gleich dem Durchmesser des Buchsenkontaktes. Je nach Ausformung des Isolierkörpers des Steckverbinders, kann das Ringelement auch anders geometrisch geformt sein, beispielsweise rechteckig, oval oder quadratisch. However, if the contact element is designed as a pin contact, the diameter of the disk-shaped ring element is equal to the diameter of the socket contact. Depending on the shape of the insulating body of the connector, the ring element can also be shaped differently geometrically, for example rectangular, oval or square.

FIG. 5 shows a further variant of the pin contact. The same parts bear the same reference numerals. Instead of a ring element 5, the contact and connection region is here separated via a surface element 5 ', which is essentially rectangular.
Die Figur 6 zeigt eine weitere Variante des Buchsenkontaktes. Gleiche Teile tragen dabei die gleichen Bezugszeichen. Zusätzlich zum Anschlussbereich 3 für Litzen weist das Kontaktelement 1 einen Kabelmantelanschlussbereich 8 auf. Dieser Bereich wird ebenfalls von einem Hohlzylinder gebildet, der einen nahezu durchgängigen axialen Schlitz 10 aufweist. Der Durchmesser des Hohlzylinders des Kabelmantelanschlussbereichs 8 ist größer als der Durchmesser des Hohlzylinders des Anschlussbereichs 3. Der Kabelmantelanschlussbereich 8 wird vom Anschlussbereich durch einen Schlitz 9 getrennt, der senkrecht zu den axialen Schlitzen 4 und 10 verläuft. Im Kabelmantelanschlussbereich 8 wird der isolierende Kabelmantel des Leiterkabels fixiert. Dies geschieht parallel zum Crimpvorgang. FIG. 6 shows a further variant of the socket contact. The same parts bear the same reference numerals. In addition to the connection region 3 for strands, the contact element 1 has a cable jacket connection region 8. This area is likewise formed by a hollow cylinder which has an almost continuous axial slot 10. The diameter of the hollow cylinder of the cable jacket connection region 8 is greater than the diameter of the hollow cylinder of the connection region 3. The cable jacket connection region 8 is separated from the connection region by a slot 9, which runs perpendicular to the axial slots 4 and 10. In the cable jacket connection region 8 of the insulating sheathing of the conductor cable is fixed. This happens parallel to the crimping process.
Die Figur 7 zeigt eine Möglichkeit die Kontaktelemente maschinell zu verarbeiten, d.h. in die Isolierkörper der Steckverbinder einzubringen. Die Kontaktelemente 1 werden auf ein Band 1 1 in Rastclips 12 aufgereiht und können so einer nicht gezeigten Bestückungseinheit zugeführt werden. Exemplarisch werden hier die Kontaktelemente gemäß Figur 1 gezeigt. Auf dem Band 1 1 können ebenfalls die Kontaktelemente gemäß der Figuren 2 bis 6, oder eine Mischung daraus, aufgereiht sein und verarbeitet werden. Figure 7 shows one way to machine the contact elements, i. to introduce into the insulator of the connector. The contact elements 1 are strung on a band 1 1 in locking clips 12 and can be fed to a loading unit, not shown. By way of example, the contact elements according to FIG. 1 are shown here. On the belt 1 1 can also be the contact elements according to Figures 2 to 6, or a mixture thereof, lined up and processed.
Die Figur 8 zeigt die perspektivische Darstellung eines weiteren Kontaktelements 1 , dass als Stiftkontakt ausgebildet ist. Im Ringelement 5 ist eine Einkerbung 5a eingearbeitet. In diese Einkerbung 5a greift eine Nicht gezeigte Nase zwischen den Rastclips 12 des Bandes 1 1 , damit sich die einzelnen Stiftkontakte gleich ausgerichtet auf dem Band 12 befinden. Dadurch wird eine störungsfreie maschinelle Verarbeitung der Kontaktelemente gewährleistet. FIG. 8 shows the perspective view of a further contact element 1, which is designed as a pin contact. In the ring member 5, a notch 5a is incorporated. In this notch 5a engages a not shown nose between the locking clips 12 of the band 1 1, so that the individual pin contacts are aligned on the same band 12. This ensures a trouble-free mechanical processing of the contact elements.
