Definitions

  • the invention relates to an electrical connection according to the preamble of claim 1.
  • Such an electrical connection is already well known and used in electrical devices, such as control units or units in automotive technology, for electrically connecting a lead wire with a plug contact element.
  • a frictional connection in the form of a so-called crimp connection is usually used.
  • connection regions of the plug-in contact element are connected to the connection wire by plastic deformation.
  • Such a crimp connection is only partially solvable and usually not repairable.
  • plug connections which have a plug-in contact element and a mating plug contact. These two elements are also connected to each other by adhesion or spring action, such a connection as often as is solvable and reparable.
  • a disadvantage of both non-positive connections is that for very small electrical currents, meaning in particular currents in the range of nanoamps or below, the contact points of the compound have a non-linear resistance behavior. This non-linear resistance behavior changes the electrical information, which should be forwarded as unchanged as possible by the electrical connection. Disclosure of the invention
  • the invention has the object, an electrical connection according to the preamble of claim 1 further develop such that the electrical connection even when conducting very low currents as linear as possible resistance behavior.
  • This object is achieved according to the invention in an electrical connection with the features of claim 1, that in addition to the non-positive connection, this has a further, cohesive connection.
  • One therefore makes use of the advantage of a relatively simple assembly, as is usually the case with a non-positive connection, and then modifies or modifies the non-positive connection by an additional cohesive connection, which ensures a consistently optimal conductivity of the current even at very high ensured low currents.
  • the cohesive connection is designed as a welded or soldered connection.
  • a welded connection in particular a resistance, ultrasonic, or laser welding in question.
  • each of the above-mentioned material-based compounds can be realized on a large scale with relatively simple means and monitored well in terms of process technology.
  • the crimp connection is designed as a double crimp connection.
  • the crimping area is divided into two different crimping points, of which one crimping point is used for non-positive connection of the plug-in contact element to the stranded wire of one connecting wire, while the other crimping point serves for the electrical contacting of the connecting wire itself, this area being stripped or stripped of the stranded wire is.
  • a strain relief is effected on the connection wire serving for the electrical contacting.
  • the plug-in contact element is electrically contacted with a mating plug contact element and positively connected thereto, and that between the plug contact element and the mating plug contact element, a further additional cohesive connection is formed.
  • the electrical connection is suitable, for example, for connecting an electrical device to a connecting cable, for example the connecting cable of a cable harness in a motor vehicle.
  • the transfer of particularly small currents without loss of information is made possible by the additional additional cohesive connection between the plug contact element and the mating plug contact element at this point.
  • the additional additional cohesive connection is preferably designed as a welded or soldered connection.
  • the plug contact element in a Plug housing is arranged and that the plug housing in a connection region between the plug contact element and a mating plug contact element has an opening, in particular an opening, such that the connection region is accessible from the outside.
  • the plug housing is electrically contactable with its connection region with the mating plug contact elements arranged in a housing, in particular of an electrical device, and that the housing has a cutout which is arranged in at least partial coverage with the opening and which can be closed by means of a cover element.
  • a sealed and protected arrangement of the connection region between plug contact element and mating plug contact element in a housing of an electrical device is made possible.
  • the plug contact housing associated plug contact element in the plug housing by a positive connection, in particular by a latching connection is fixed. As a result, the plug-in contact element can be securely connected to the plug housing in a purely mechanical way and secured.
  • a particularly tight connection can also be achieved if the plug housing has a seal and cooperates with the housing of the electrical device.
  • FIG. 2 shows the region of the electrical connection according to FIG. 1 from another perspective view, FIG.
  • FIG. 3 shows a plug housing with a plurality of plug contact elements arranged therein in a perspective view
  • FIG. 4 shows the mounting of a plug housing according to FIG. 3 on a control device in perspective view, FIG.
  • FIG. 5 shows the area of an opening of the control device according to FIG. 4 with the plug housing mounted in a perspective view
  • Fig. 6 connected to the connector housing control unit with the opening of the control unit.
  • the same components or components with the same function are provided in the figures with the same reference numerals.
  • the connecting wire 1 shows an electrical line in the form of a lead wire 1 (lead line), which is electrically contacted with a plug contact element in the form of a plug connection body 10.
  • the connecting wire 1 has an insulation 2, which encloses the stranded wires 5.
  • the connecting wire 1 is electrically stripped in the region of its electrical connection to the plug connection body 5, i. freed from his isolation 2.
  • the plug connection body 10 is, as is known per se, produced as a stamped / bent part from sheet metal and has two crimp regions 12, 13 which are spaced apart from one another in the longitudinal direction.
  • the first crimping area 12 of the non-positive connection of the connector body 10 with the insulation 2 near the stripped terminal wire 1 while the second crimping area 13 of the non-positive connection of the lead wire 1 with the connector body 10 is used.
  • the plug connection body 10 on the side opposite the two crimp regions 12, 13 still has a latching nose 14 produced by a stamping / bending process and protruding from the actual plug connection body 10.
  • the second crimping region 13, which serves to electrically contact the connecting wire 5 with the plug connection body 10, is equipped or provided with an additional cohesive connection 15.
  • the additional cohesive connection 15 is formed in particular as a welded connection.
  • a welded joint comes, depending on the application, in particular a laser, resistance or ultrasonic welding in question. Alternatively, a solder joint is conceivable.
  • FIG. 3 shows a plug housing 20 for use with a plurality of plug connection bodies 10, which are arranged parallel to one another in the plug housing 20.
