Definitions

  • the invention relates to a connector for connecting a printed circuit board with electrical lines.
  • PCB country In the automotive sector, for example, for the engine compartment of vehicles, connectors or plug contacts for contacting printed circuit boards are known in which the circuit board may have multiple rows of contact surfaces ("PCB country") in the insertion direction of the connector. For example, it is possible to contact two rows of contact surfaces per printed circuit board side.
  • the contacts and the lines that are to contact the contact pads in the second row must be routed through the contacts for the first row and then hit the PCB.
  • angled chambers or channels are used in the contact carrier, through which the contacts are guided.
  • the problem may arise that the lines or contacts received in the channels are of different lengths, since the distances from one side of the plug connection to the contact surfaces are of different lengths.
  • the molding of the contact carrier may be complicated due to the relatively complicated shape of the angled channels.
  • the printed circuit board has at least two contact surfaces arranged in the plugging direction. For example, it can have two rows of contact surfaces on one side.
  • the connector is thus suitable for double-row PCB edge-contacting connector.
  • the circuit board may for example be part of a control device for a vehicle.
  • the connector may include a harness connector.
  • the plug connection comprises a contact carrier, in which a first channel and a second channel are formed.
  • the first channel is adapted to receive a first lead and lead to the first contact surface and the second channel is adapted to receive a second lead and lead to the second contact surface.
  • the plug connection can therefore comprise a contact carrier, through which lines arranged in relation to the printed circuit board and leads fastened thereto can be led up to the contact surfaces on the printed circuit board and, in particular, pushed.
  • a channel may include a contact chamber configured to receive a contact element.
  • the contact carrier is formed from a first contact carrier shell, a second contact carrier shell and a third contact carrier shell.
  • the first channel is formed between the first contact carrier shell and the second contact carrier shell, and the second channel is formed between the second contact carrier shell and the third contact carrier shell.
  • the contact carrier can be assembled from a plurality of cup-shaped contact carrier elements or contact carrier shells so that the channels are formed.
  • the contact carrier shells can be made of plastic, for example.
  • the channels may be made similar (i.e., same diameter, cross-section, and / or end portion but different length) so that contacting of the circuit board may occur with only one variant of contact elements at the end of the line in the respective channel.
  • a contact element at the end of the first line and / or the second line is formed from a wire end sleeve.
  • the contact element may thus comprise a wire end ferrule, which is attached by crimping to the line end.
  • Wire end ferrules represent particularly cost-effective contact elements that are easy to attach (fasten) to the line (or cable).
  • the contact elements can be produced particularly inexpensively.
  • the first channel and / or the second channel is arcuately curved.
  • the lines and attached contact elements can be particularly easily pushed into the channels, since they do not have to be kinked.
  • the bringing of the attached to the line contact elements to the successive contact surfaces on the circuit board can be done by arcuately arranged channels in the contact carrier. Since the respective Line is usually sufficiently flexible, follows the attached to the line contact element, such as a wire end ferrule, when loading the contact carrier the curved channel.
  • the first channel and / or the second channel at one end to a paragraph on which a collar of a contact element at the end of the first line and / or the second line is deductible.
  • the ferrules may include, for example, a federal government.
  • the first channel is formed from a depression in the first contact carrier shell and an opposite depression in the second contact carrier shell.
  • the second channel may be formed from a further recess in the second contact carrier shell and an opposite recess in the third contact carrier shell. Between the recesses, the contact carrier shells can rest against each other.
  • the first contact carrier shell and the second contact carrier shell are locked together.
  • the second contact carrier shell and the third contact carrier shell can be locked together.
  • the contact carrier can be constructed by plugging together from the individual contact carrier shells.
  • the contact carrier comprises two contact carrier halves which receive the printed circuit board between them. At least one of the contact carrier halves comprises a first, second and third contact carrier shell and may be constructed as described above and below. Even printed circuit boards with at least two rows of contact surfaces on each side can be contacted with the connector.
  • Fig. 1 shows a connector 10, which comprises a contact carrier 12 of two contact carrier halves 14, 16.
  • the two contact carrier halves 14, 16 receive a printed circuit board 18 between them in order to contact them electrically.
  • the printed circuit board 18 is cast in a region outside the contact carrier 12 in plastic 20. In the region within the contact carrier 12, it has two contact surfaces (lands) 22, 24 on each side.
  • the contact surface 22 is arranged closer to the edge of the circuit board 18 than the contact surface 24.
  • the contact surfaces 22, 24 are part of two rows of contact surfaces on each side of the circuit board 18, which extend orthogonal to the image plane.
  • the contact carrier half 16 is constructed mirror-symmetrically to the contact carrier half 14. For this reason, the structure of the contact carrier half 14 will be described below, which applies analogously to the contact carrier half 16.
  • the contact carrier half 14 comprises three different constructed, made of plastic contact carrier shells 26, 28, 30 between each of which a first channel 32 and a second channel 34 is formed.
  • the contact carrier shells 26, 28, 30 can be locked together, so that a mechanically stable contact carrier 12 is formed.
  • the channels 32, 34 are continuously curved and extend from one side of the contact carrier 12, which is opposite to the printed circuit board 18, arcuately to the contact surfaces 22, 24.
  • the two channels 32, 34 lie in a direction orthogonal to the circuit board 18 one above the other.
  • channels 32, 34 are respectively lines 36, 38, at the end of a contact element 40, 42 in the form of ferrules for contacting the respective contact surface 22, 24 is mounted.
  • Each of the contact elements 40, 42 comprises a collar 44 which is adapted to rest on a shoulder 46 located at the end of the respective channel 32, 34.
  • the contact elements 40, 42 When assembling the connector 10, the contact elements 40, 42 respectively pushed in the curved channel 32, 34 to the end of the channel until the collar 44 rests on the shoulder 46. Thereafter, the contact elements 40, 42 can be fixed in the respective channel 32, 34.
  • the contact carrier halves 14, 16 are each pressed via a spring 48 against the printed circuit board 18.
  • the contact elements 40, 42 are pressed against the contact surfaces 22, 24.
  • the contact pressure of the ferrules 40, 42 on the contact surfaces 22, 24 of the circuit board 18 is effected by at least one externally mounted on the contact carrier 12 spring element 48th
  • the Fig. 2 shows a plan view of the contact carrier half 14 in the direction of arrow A in the Fig. 1 , In the Fig. 2 two rows of channels 32, 34 are visible, which are formed in the contact carrier half 14.
  • One side 50 of the first shell 26 has a recess 52 and is formed complementary to an opposite side 54 of the second shell 28. Opposite the recess 52 in the first shell 26, the side 54 has a further recess 56.
  • the channel 32 is made of the recesses 32, 34th educated. Between the recesses 52, 56, the two shells 26, 28 abut each other.
  • the second shell 28 has a further side 58 which comprises a recess 60 which is opposite to a recess 62 in an opposite side 64 of the third shell 30. From the recesses 60 and 62 of the channel 34 is formed.
  • the contact carrier shells 26, 28, 30 may have locking elements 66, with which they can be fixed to each other.
  • the latching elements 66 may comprise a clip connection.
