Definitions
- the invention relates to a so-called sub-D plug and a method for its production according to the preamble of the independent claims.
- Such connectors are widely used in the art and are used, for example, in computers. Such connectors are disclosed, for example, in US 2011/0059653 A1, EP 0 648 382 B1 and EP 0 874 421 A1.
- a sub-D plug in SMD technology has become known with a base plate which can be fastened to a printed circuit board.
- the base plate has at least one solder projection which is formed to be provided with an SM soldering technique on a circuit board provided on a circuit board Soldering point is solderable.
- the plug has a fairly large construction and therefore takes on the circuit board a considerable amount of space.
- Sub-D plug which are variously referred to as D-Sub connector, in the installed state also go, for example, from the utility model 201 06 408 U1 and from the utility model 203 05 734 U1.
- a shielded connector in particular a D-sub connector, comprising an electrically insulating base body, which is provided as a support for electrical contacts, a metallic shielding element with a circumferential flange and two electrically conductive, lateral fastening elements.
- the main body has a mounting surface and two opening into this mounting surface and extending through the body openings. In each of the two openings, a recess is arranged in each case in the mounting surface, wherein this recess has a collar on its inside.
- the fastening elements each have a window, formed from a frame, wherein the frame is provided to be positively inserted into the respective recess.
- the invention has the object of developing a plug, in particular a sub-D connector, to the effect that it has a simple structure and in particular in a quick and easy way to produce.
- the basic idea of the invention is to form the side flaps formed on the base plate of the plug, which bend at two edges substantially rectangularly at a peripheral edge, in such a way that the fastening openings on the plug front and rear sides are covered by the flaps in the enclosed state of the plug connector housing.
- a positioning pin is arranged on the tabs and that at the simply angled portion of the tabs.
- an advantageous embodiment provides that the lateral tabs each two in the field of having right-angled turn and serve the defined turn serving beads. Through these beads a defined and precise bending is very advantageous possible.
- the connector housing has a plastic body, are arranged in the plug contacts and terminals for a circuit board. This plastic body is attached to the base plate, for example molded.
- the plug contacts are, for example, blade contacts or spring contacts.
- the connection contacts for the printed circuit board are preferably SMD contacts, ie contacts which are surface-mounted on the printed circuit board ("Surface Mount Technology").
- Such a plug is positioned in particular on the edge of a printed circuit board. He should take up as little space as possible.
- the plug connector housing has a plastic bottle for plug-back insulation of the contact elements in the connector.
- This plastic bottle covers the plug contact elements and / or the connection contacts of the printed circuit board and / or the connecting lines between the plug contacts and the connection contacts.
- this plastic bottle can be hingedly hinged to the connector housing. In this case, after making the contact by simply folding down and locking the plastic bottle to the connector housing secure isolation can be achieved.
- a particularly advantageous embodiment, which is particularly easy to manufacture, provides that the hinged tab is molded onto the connector housing.
- the method of making such a connector is characterized by the following steps: Attaching the connector to the base plate, for example by spraying or gluing or the like, bending the lateral tabs of the base plate such that the connector insulation housing is laterally enclosed and that mounting holes of the connector in the angled state of the side plates of the base plate on both the Steckervorder- are also enclosed on the connector back of the tabs of the base plate. With this bend, the positioning pins are also placed at the desired position at the same time.
- Fig. 1 to Fig. 4 respectively in isometric view of making use of the invention plug during various manufacturing steps
- Fig. 5 is an isometric view of the plug obliquely from the front.
- a sub-D plug or D-sub plug shown in isometric view during various manufacturing steps in Figures 1 to 4 and obliquely from the front in Fig. 5, comprises a base plate 100 to which a connector housing 200 attached, for example glued or injected, is. On its front side, an apron 120, which is connected in one piece with the base plate 100 and is known per se, is arranged, which encloses an opening 122 in which the plug contacts, for example spring contact elements or knife contact elements 400, are arranged.
- the plastic existing connector housing 200 each has two lateral openings 220, which serve to receive, for example, screws, bolts or the like for fastening the plug, for example on a housing wall.
- the base plate 100 also has openings 114, only one of which is visible in FIGS. 1 to 4.
- the other opening 1 15 is disposed on the plug front side and is aligned with the opening 220 of the connector housing (Fig. 5).
- the side flaps 110 of the base plate 100 are in two parts, a first part
- a bead 117 is arranged, which serve in the following to be described in more detail defined deflection of the parts 1 1 1, 1 12 of the side flaps 110 of the base plate 100.
- On the part 11 1 is at its lower, a (not shown) printed circuit board facing edge via a connecting web 160, a positioning pin 165 is arranged, which serves the positioning of the plug on the circuit board in a known manner. In a corresponding manner, the connector plastic housing positioning 265 on.
- FIG. 1 now shows the beginning of the manufacturing process of such a connector, in which the connector housing 200 is already attached to the base plate 100.
- the two tabs 100 are initially in the non-bent state laterally over the connector housing 200 via.
- a first manufacturing step shown in Fig. 2
- the two tabs 100 are first bent by 90 °, so that the part 1 1 1 rests against the connector housing 200.
- beads 131 may be provided, which engage in corresponding recesses 231 of the connector housing and insofar convey a stabilization and / or attachment of the part 11 1 to the connector housing 200.
- the positioning pin 165 When bending of the part 11 1, the positioning pin 165 is simultaneously brought into position, wherein the connecting web 160, on which the positioning pin 165 is integrally connected to the base plate 100, parallel to the insertion direction, indicated by an arrow R. in Fig. 1, is positioned.
- This design has the great advantage that a bending of the positioning pin 165 in the plugging direction is practically impossible.
- the stability is substantially higher than if the connecting web 160, to which the positioning pin 165 is attached, would extend in the plugging direction, for example as shown in Figure 1, as is the case with prior art connectors.
- contact elements 300 are arranged, which are formed on their plug front side, for example, as a blade contact elements or as spring contact elements in a known per se.
- these contact elements 300 are formed as SMD contact elements, that is to say contact elements which can be mounted on a printed circuit board in surface mounting technology (surface mounted).
- the entire plug has a very compact, in particular narrow, structure, so that it can be attached to the edge of a printed circuit board.
- the contact elements 300 of the plug are visible.
- the contact elements 300 are connected via corresponding connections 301, 302 with knife contact elements or spring contact elements of the sub-D plug arranged one above the other in two rows. For example, there are five contact elements in the upper row and four contact elements in the lower row.
- a plastic bottle 290 which is molded, for example, on the connector housing 200.
- the above-described connector is characterized by a simple construction and especially by a simple production.
