Definitions

  • the invention relates to a connecting element for the electrically conductive connection of two components and in particular a connecting element with which high-frequency signals between two components and in particular printed circuit boards can be transmitted as lossless as possible.
  • spring contact pins required for the coil spring properties with respect to spring force and block length require relatively large spring lengths, which have a correspondingly detrimental effect on the axial height of the spring contact pins.
  • the use of spring contact pins in the single-conductor structure also has the disadvantage that they must be arranged in a specific pattern as signal and ground pins in order to achieve a satisfactory electrical performance. Multiple conductors, however, are prone to error and expensive due to their complicated structure.
  • the present invention seeks to provide an improved connection element for electrically connecting two components.
  • the connecting element should, despite tolerances balancing properties by cost-effective production, a simple and thus error-prone construction and / or a simple installation distinguished.
  • This object is solved by the subject matter of independent claim 1.
  • Advantageous embodiments of the connecting element according to the invention are the subject of the dependent claims and will become apparent from the following description of the invention.
  • the invention is based on the idea to realize the electrical connection between two components by means of a conductor constructed as simple as possible and to realize a balance of positional tolerances of the two components to be connected by a deformation of this conductor due to its structural configuration.
  • a conductor comprising at least two, in the connecting direction relative to each other movable sub-conductor, wherein a relative movement of the sub-conductors leads to a radial, preferably elastic deformation of at least one of the sub-conductors.
  • the two sub-conductors can thus be formed telescopically and position tolerances of the components to be connected, in particular with respect to the distance of the (joints of) components from each other, compensate by telescoping together and pushing apart.
  • the radial deformation of at least one of the sub-conductors produced by the relative movement of the two sub-conductors ensures that, in particular, the pushing together takes place only to the extent required to compensate for the positional tolerances.
  • a secure contact of the conductor is achieved at the junctions of the two components.
  • connection direction is understood to mean the direction defined by a connecting line between the two connection points of the components.
  • a preferred way of effecting the radial deformation caused by the relative movement may be to make at least a portion of at least one of the partial conductors taper (e.g., conical). A corresponding counter section of another sub-conductor can then slide off during the relative movement on the tapered section and thereby be radially expanded.
  • (at least) of the sliding on the tapered portion portion of the other sub-conductor should be designed so that it forms sufficiently low restoring forces to the inventively provided function of tolerance compensation in the applied during the assembly of the two components and the connecting element or transferable forces fulfill.
  • An advantageous, in particular cost-effective way of producing such a sub-conductor with spring tabs can provide this by bending a cut board, i. of the spring plates already forming surface component, to produce a tube (any, but in particular circular cross-section).
  • a “neutral position” is understood to mean a relative position of the two sub-conductors, in which a relative movement can only be achieved by the application of external forces.
  • This neutral position characterized by an equilibrium of forces can preferably be achieved by providing a stop between the partial conductors which limits a relative movement caused by the radial, elastic deformation.
  • a relatively large contact surface of the connecting element should be available in each case.
  • This relatively large contact surface can be formed by a corresponding shaping and in particular a relatively large cross-section of the sub-conductor at the intended for the respective contacting of the components end of the sub-conductor.
  • a cut board conductor can be provided to connect this with an annular (arbitrarily, but preferably circular ring shape) adapter element that forms this relatively large contact surface.
  • the adapter element may be formed (for example, with an L-shaped cross-section) that surrounds the sub-conductor (in a section) and this in fixed to its tubular shape. If necessary, can then be dispensed with a joining (eg by welding, soldering or gluing) the butt weld.
  • the conductor is provided as an outer conductor of a coaxial connecting element, which thus surrounds a further conductor (inner conductor).
  • This inner conductor may preferably be formed in a known form as a spring contact pin, thus a sleeve, one or preferably two partially guided within the sleeve piston and one or more spring elements, which load the piston (s) in the direction of its extended position.
  • spring contact pins are characterized by a good transmission behavior for in particular high-frequency signals and also by an insensitivity to positional tolerances of the components to be joined together.
  • Tolerances with respect to the distance between the two components to each other are compensated by the possibility of a displacement of the / the piston (s) in the sleeve.
  • the / the spring element (s) ensures / ensure a sufficient contact pressure of the / the piston (s) to the respective adjacent component.
  • an insulation element is arranged between the outer conductor and the inner conductor.
  • This may - in order to obtain a well manageable unit - preferably be firmly connected to the inner conductor and at least a portion of one of the sub-conductors.
  • connecting element serves to connect two circuit boards electrically conductive with each other.
  • the connecting element comprises an inner conductor 1, an outer conductor 2 and an insulation element 3 arranged between the inner conductor 1 and the outer conductor 2.
  • the inner conductor 1 is designed in the form of a spring contact pin, ie this comprises a sleeve 4 as well as two pistons 5 which are guided partially within the sleeve Within the sleeve 4 there is arranged a helical spring (not shown), which is supported between the two pistons 5 and urges them into their respective extended position.
  • the outer conductor 2 comprises a first sub-conductor 6 with a tubular jacket with a circular cross-section, which is formed by a plurality of spring tabs 7.
  • the fixed ends of the spring tabs merge into a foot section 8 of the first partial conductor 6.
  • the foot section 8 itself is held in an annular adapter element 9, the wall of which has an L-shaped cross section.
  • a first leg of the L-shaped wall contacts the outside of the foot section 8 and fixes it in the radial direction.
  • the inner side of the second leg of the L-shaped wall contacts the end face of the foot section 8 and fixes it in the axial direction (which corresponds to the connecting direction).
  • the outside of this second leg serves as a contact surface 16 for contacting a first circuit board.
  • the connection between the foot section 8 and the adapter element 9 of the first sub-conductor 6 is carried out permanently by a press fit.
  • the outer conductor 2 also includes a second sub-conductor 10, which is also tubular (with a circular cross-section), has almost the same length as the insulating element 3 and with this in one Section in which the second sub-conductor forms a closed jacket, firmly connected (eg glued) is.
  • a second sub-conductor 10 which is also tubular (with a circular cross-section), has almost the same length as the insulating element 3 and with this in one Section in which the second sub-conductor forms a closed jacket, firmly connected (eg glued) is.
  • the insulating element 3 is designed in the corresponding section with a slightly smaller diameter.
  • the second part-conductor 10 forms on its outer side a tapering, concretely conical section 12.
  • This conical section 12 merges into an annular projection 13 which serves as a stop for the arcuately extending (free) end sections 14 of the spring clips 7 of the first partial conductor 6.
  • the arcuate end portion 14 of the spring tabs 7 thus in the complementarily formed transition between the conical portion 12 and the annular projection 13 of the second sub-conductor 10. In this position, a pulling apart of the two telescopically nested sub-conductors 6, 10 only under one considerable force possible.
  • a collapse of the sub-conductors 6, 10, however, is already possible by exerting a comparatively low compressive force, wherein the two sub-conductors 6, 10 generate a counterforce resulting from the radial, elastic deformation (deflection) of the spring tabs 7 of the first sub-conductor 6.
  • This radial deflection of the spring tabs 7 is a consequence of the sliding relative displacement of the arcuate end sections 14 of the spring tabs 7 of the first partial conductor 6 on the conical section 12 of the second partial conductor 10.
  • the end face of the conical portion 12 having the end portion of the second sub-conductor 10 also forms a contact surface 15, which serves for contacting a second printed circuit board.
  • the connecting element is an easy to handle unit whose components are sufficiently captive with each other are connected.
  • the connecting element In order to electrically connect two boards by means of the connecting element according to the invention for the transmission of high-frequency signals, the connecting element is first firmly connected to a first board 17.
  • the corresponding (lower) pin 5 of the inner conductor 1 is displaced so far into the sleeve 4 that its tip is substantially in one plane with the contact surface 15 of the second sub-conductor 10 is located.
  • the resulting increased bias of the coil spring ensures by a corresponding counterforce for a secure contact of the piston with the associated contact point of the board 17th
  • the second board 18 is mounted, which thereby presses with a defined contact force against the end of the outer conductor formed by the first part conductor (see. Fig. 3 ).
  • This contact pressure can vary as a result of positional tolerances of the two boards 17, 18.
  • the pressing of the second board 18 against the connecting element on the one hand causes a displacement of the corresponding (upper) piston 5 of the inner conductor 1 against the force of the coil spring.
  • the so further increased preload ensures safe contact of the piston 5 with the corresponding contact point on the board 18th
  • the pressing of the upper board 18 ensures an at least slight relative displacement of the two sub-conductors 6, 10 in the axial or Connection direction (cf. Fig. 5 ).
  • the relative displacement of the sub-conductors 6, 10 leads to the already described radial, elastic deflection of the spring tabs 7 of the first sub-conductor 6. As a result, a restoring force is generated, which ensures sufficient contact pressure in the contact points between the connecting element and the circuit boards 17, 18.
  • the axial relative mobility of the sub-conductors 6, 10 creates a possibility of compensating for positional tolerances of the two printed circuit boards 17, 18, not only tolerances with respect to the spacing of the two printed circuit boards 17, 18 from each other, but also within limits with respect to a lack of parallelism can be compensated since, by means of the contacting between the first sub-conductor 6 and the second sub-conductor 10, a (limited) relative mobility is also given in the radial direction exclusively via the spring tabs 7, 11.
