Definitions

  • the invention relates to a connector for mounting in a housing opening of a housing according to the preamble of patent claim 1.
  • housing connector usually electrical connectors are used, which are used in a housing opening of a housing of an electrical or electronic device, for example.
  • a Hf device usually electrical connectors are used, which are used in a housing opening of a housing of an electrical or electronic device, for example.
  • connectors for example.
  • Rosenberger Hochfrequenztechnik GmbH & Co. KG in which the force generated by a mating connector via an adapter housing is transmitted directly to the connector, which in turn is arranged directly in a housing opening of a housing, so that also in such a connector, the above Disadvantages can occur.
  • the invention has the object of developing the aforementioned connector such that the disadvantages occurring in the prior art are largely avoided and at the same time a simple structural design with a low assembly complexity is ensured.
  • Such a connector according to the preamble of the claim is inventively characterized in that at least one latching connection means is provided for latching connection of the adapter housing with the plug housing, the adapter housing has a base body with a housing fastening part formed thereon, and the housing fastening part with at least one partially circumferential in the circumferential direction receiving groove is formed for at least partially surface-engaging recording of the edge region of the housing opening.
  • the adapter housing is inserted into the housing opening of the housing, so that the forces generated by the insertion of a complementary connector are directly and directly supported by the housing wall of the housing.
  • the locking connection means causing the positive connection in the axial direction of the connector is formed with a first clearance and the receiving surface between the housing attachment part and the housing opening causing the receiving surface is formed with a second clearance, which at the most first game size corresponds, but preferably smaller than the first game measure.
  • the introduced by a complementary connector force is directly compensated by the adapter housing.
  • the locking hooks secure only the position of the adapter housing to the plug housing, but do not prevent an axial movement of a surface closure of the receiving groove with the housing opening, so the housing wall of the housing.
  • the force input is reduced to the contact elements, as due to the identical game dimensions, preferably due to the lesser game on the housing attachment part compared to the game generated by the locking connection means when inserting a complementary connector recorded forces can be absorbed directly from the housing wall.
  • the adapter housing can be moved axially when a force is introduced through a complementary connector in the adapter housing. This introduced force is then discharged through a surface closure between the housing fastening part and the housing opening in the housing wall of the housing, without the plug housing is loaded. This protects sensitive solder joints of the connector housing on a printed circuit board.
  • the housing fastening part has at least one integrally formed on the base body in the axial direction latching hooks, wherein the connector housing is provided as a latching connection means with a locking groove, which is engaged behind by the latching hook. This leads to a contact-secure locking connection between the adapter housing and the connector housing.
  • a preferred embodiment of the invention is that the connector housing has a connection flange at the plug-in end, and the housing attachment part of the adapter housing is designed such that in the latched state with the connector housing, the connection flange is concentrically enclosed.
  • the locking groove is arranged as a latching connection means in the region of this connection flange. This leads to a stable connection between the adapter housing and the connector housing.
  • the housing attachment part plug housing side is formed with a connecting flange concentrically surrounding the abutment ring, which rests in the locked state with the connector housing to the connector housing.
  • the housing fastening part is formed with diametrically opposed flange elements which each have a receiving groove.
  • the flange elements together with diametrically opposite latching hooks, surround the connecting flange of the plug housing concentrically.
  • the housing fastening part with latching hook and flange elements such that the latching hooks project beyond the plane of the grooves in relation to the base body.
  • the flange elements are substantially cuboid, so that the adapter housing, for example.
  • the adapter housing for example.
  • an injection molded part is easy to produce.
  • the receiving groove is formed substantially rectangular, so that the groove width substantially corresponds to the wall thickness of the housing.
  • the specifications of the above mentioned measures are to be considered.
  • the plug housing for receiving the at least one contact element, a contact receiving body which terminates in the base body of the adapter housing.
  • the base body of the adapter housing is cup-shaped, so that its open side can receive the complementary connector and the contact receiving body extends into the cup-shaped base body.
  • the connector according to the invention is designed as a printed circuit board connector for electrical connection and mechanical fastening on a printed circuit board with a support surface, said at least one contact elements for connecting is guided to the support surface with the circuit board and soldered there together with solder feet of the connector.
  • the contacts which form the soldering points for connection to the printed circuit board are not loaded by a force input, which can be generated when inserting a complementary connector.
  • the connector 1 according to the invention according to the Figures 1 and 2 as well as the sectional view after FIG. 4 comprises a plug housing 4 and an adapter housing 7 latched onto a connecting flange 12 of the plug housing 4.
  • this connector 1 is connected as a circuit board connector with its connector housing 4 on a circuit board 16 via the support surface 17 mechanically and electrically connected to the same. Terminal pins 5a of the circuit board connector 1 are electrically connected to soldering points of the circuit board 16 with the same.
  • This circuit board connector 1 is guided with its plug-side end 6 through a housing opening 2 of a housing wall 3a of a housing 3 (only indicated in the figures) of an electrical or electronic device, with the adapter housing 7 a surface-locking connection with the housing wall 3a is produced.
  • this housing wall 3a is shown schematically, where the printed circuit board connector 1 is drawn there for a clearer view in a position from which the adapter housing 7 can be inserted directly into this housing opening 2.
  • This housing wall 3a may represent an end wall of a hood-shaped housing cover, which is closed by a housing bottom.
  • the plug-side end 6 of the printed circuit board connector 1 is thus guided through the housing wall 3 a of the housing 3, thereby enclosed by a hood-shaped housing cover from above and a housing bottom from below, so that there from outside the housing 3 a complementary connector (not shown in the figures) for contacting two contact elements 5 of the connector 1 can be plugged.
  • These two contact elements 5 are guided by a contact receiving body 15 of the connector housing 4 from the plug-side end 6 of the connector 1 in the axial direction in the connector housing 4 and perpendicular to the support surface 17 of the connector housing 4, whose ends respectively are formed as a connecting pin 5a.
  • the adapter housing 7 consists of a pot-shaped basic body 9 and a housing fastening part 10 adjoining it, wherein this adapter housing 7 is designed as a hollow cylinder overall in order to be able to receive the contact-receiving body 15 concentrically together with the connecting flange 12 of the plug housing 4 ,
  • a complementary connector (not shown) for contacting the contact elements 5 is inserted and locked by means of the adapter housing 7, as will be explained below.
  • the housing attachment part 10 establishes the area-locking connection with the edge region of the housing opening 2 in the housing wall 3a.
  • this housing fastening part 10 has two diametrically opposite flange elements 14, which have on their outer side perpendicular to the axial direction of the connector 1 extending grooves 11. These flange elements 14 extend in the axial direction of the connector 1 and are cuboid, so that the receiving grooves 11 extend in a flat surface.
  • the housing opening 2 is formed so that the housing fastening part 10 of the adapter housing 7 can be inserted by means of the receiving grooves 11 in the housing opening 2, so that while the receiving grooves 11 surrounds the edge region of this housing opening 2 and this is the cross section of these grooves 11 is formed rectangular.
  • the two grooves 11 are provided at the end with a chamfer 19, as from the FIGS. 3 and 3a is clearly visible.
  • the housing opening 2 is formed from an outer edge 3b of the housing wall 3a slit-shaped, so that initially two parallel edges of this housing opening 2 ends in a semicircular arc.
  • the distance between these two parallel edges of the housing opening 2 substantially corresponds to the distance of the groove bottom of the parallel grooves 11, so that the housing fixing part 9 can be inserted into the housing opening 2.
  • latching connection means 8 serve on the one hand latching hooks 8a, which are integrally formed on the base body 9 and directed in the direction of the plug housing 4 and on the other hand latching grooves 8b, which are arranged in the region of the connection flange 12 and are engaged behind by the latching hooks 8a.
  • locking hooks 8a formed diametrically opposite to the base body 9, so that these together with the receiving grooves 11 bearing flange 14 of the flange 12 of the connector housing 4 is concentrically enclosed.
  • the length of the locking hooks 8a is greater than the distance between the grooves 11 of the base body.
  • An attachment ring 13 which connects the two flange elements 14 at the end is arranged on the front side and lies adjacent to an end wall 4a of the plug housing 4, in the state locked to the plug housing 4, from which the connection flange 12 protrudes.
  • a latching arm 8a In the lying between this abutment ring 13 and each of the two opposite flange elements 14 space is in each case a latching arm 8a, which is thus radially elastically pivotable to engage in a locking groove 8b.
  • the two game dimensions 2d and 2D are set so that the second game dimension 2D is at most as large as the first game size 2d, or smaller than the first game size 2d. This means that the game generated by the latched latch hooks 8a is greater than the game, which is generated by the guided from the grooves 11 housing wall 3a.
  • the adapter housing 7 can be moved axially when a force is introduced through a complementary connector in the adapter housing 7. This introduced force is then discharged through a surface closure between the housing fastening part 10 and the housing opening 2 in the housing wall 3a of the housing 3, without the plug housing 4 is charged. Sensitive solder joints of the connector housing 4 on a printed circuit board 16 are thereby protected.
  • the introduced by a complementary connector force is compensated by the adapter housing 7 directly.
  • the locking hooks 8a secure only the position of the adapter housing 7 on the plug housing 4, but do not prevent an axial movement of a surface closure of the receiving groove 11 with the housing opening 2, ie the housing wall 3a of the housing. 3
