Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a first and a second wire seal, particularly a first an a second single-wire seal for an aluminium wire and an electric crimp terminal, especially for the automotive industry.
  • the invention further relates to a cable assembly or cable harness for the automotive industry, wherein the cable assembly or the cable harness comprises an inventive wire seal, particularly an inventive single-wire seal.
  • electrical connectors and mating connectors serve to transmit electrical power and/or electrical signals with the widest possible range of voltages, currents, frequencies and data rates.
  • electrical connectors and mating connectors have to fulfil other functions.
  • electrical connectors and mating connectors comprise seals which prevent penetration of surrounding media into the electrical connectors and mating connectors and corrosion thereof, or the formation of conductive deposits therein.
  • aluminium wires or their strands instead of copper wires or their strands for electrical connectors, particularly in the automotive industry, because of significantly lower costs and weight of aluminium.
  • aluminium has certain drawbacks. Aluminium has other material properties than copper, whereby it is prone to overstressing, oxidises when it is exposed to air and it is not as strong as copper.
  • an aluminium wire or its strands are more difficult to strip, to splice, to feed, to cut and/or to crimp than a cable comprising a copper wire. Particularly small aluminium cables and wires raise many challenges.
  • a wire or an electric cable comprises an electric wire surrounded by an electrical insulation, wherein the wire or the electric cable is stripped at its longitudinal end portions.
  • the electric wire in turn may comprise a plurality or a bundle of strands, wherein such an electric wire may also be called multi-stranded electric wire, hereinafter also referred to as electric wire.
  • the electric wire itself may be a single strand, i. e. a massive lead.
  • the electric wire or its strands are preferably made from aluminium or an aluminium alloy, also copper or a copper alloy is applicable.
  • Particularly overstressing a crimped aluminium wire at an electric crimp terminal has to be avoided.
  • two problem areas are identified.
  • the first area lies between a wire crimp section and an insulation crimp section in the presence of a wire seal also crimped at the insulation crimp section of the terminal, due to the comparatively soft wire seal allowing for too much movement of the electric wire in the insulation crimp section and thus at the wire crimp section of the crimp terminal.
  • the second problem area lies at a trailing end of the crimp terminal or the soft wire seal. At these positions the aluminium wire runs the risk of being buckled because of an improper use of the terminal and/or the electric wire.
  • the object of the present invention is solved by means of a first variant of a wire seal, particularly a single-wire seal for an aluminium wire and an electric crimp terminal, especially for the automotive industry, according to claim 1; and by means of a second variant of a wire seal, particularly a second variant of a single-wire seal, according to claim 7; and by means of a cable assembly or cable harness for the automotive industry, according to claim 12.
  • a first variant of a wire seal particularly a single-wire seal for an aluminium wire and an electric crimp terminal, especially for the automotive industry, according to claim 1
  • a second variant of a wire seal particularly a second variant of a single-wire seal, according to claim 7
  • a cable assembly or cable harness for the automotive industry according to claim 12.
  • the wire seal according to the first variant of the invention comprises a crimping section for crimping the wire seal to an electric crimp terminal, and having a sealing section for sealing the electric crimp terminal against an environment.
  • the sealing section of the wire seal is made from a comparatively or relatively soft material
  • the crimping section of the wire seal is made from a comparatively or relatively hard material. I. e. these two materials are in relation to each other, wherein the material of the sealing section is softer than the material of the crimping section. And vice versa, i. e. the material of the crimping section is harder than the material of the sealing section.
  • a choice of one material is a limitation for the other material.
  • the sealing section and the crimping section are held together by an undercut, a back-taper, a catch mechanism, a latching connection and/or by adhesion.
  • the sealing section and the crimping section may be stuck, put, plugged and/or glued together.
  • the sealing section and the crimping section are produced together as a one-piece wire seal, which may be carried out by a two-component moulding process.
  • the sealing section is preferably made from a comparatively soft silicone or rubber, whereas the crimping section is preferably made from a comparatively hard silicone or rubber.
  • the wire seal may comprise a weakened segment in a rotation-symmetric portion, particularly in an essentially hollow-cylindrical portion of its crimping section, wherein the crimping section preferably comprises a recess on an outside and/or an inside of this portion.
  • a weakened segment in the rotation-symmetric portion enables the crimping section to be deformed by an insulation crimp wing of the insulation crimp section of the terminal such that the wire seal may be crimped to the crimp terminal.
  • the recess, weakened segment or deviation may be a longitudinal and/or circumferential slot in the crimping section.
  • the longitudinal and/or circumferential slot completely passes through the crimping section in radial direction, wherein the slot preferably extends over essentially the entire longitudinal length of the crimping section.
  • the wire seal may be constructed in such a way that the crimping section is at least partially moveable or slidable at/in the sealing section mainly in radial direction. Further, at least a circumferential portion of the crimping section or the entire crimping section may be rotationally moveable in relation to the sealing section.
  • a leading sealing lip inside or outside of the wire seal may extend farther in a radial direction than a vicinal sealing lip at the same circumferential side of the wire seal.
  • the wire seal may be formed such that at least one weakened segment is established in the crimping section in such a way that it constitutes a predetermined breaking, folding or deforming area for the crimping section during crimping to the electric crimp terminal. I. e. during crimping the wire seal (containing the wire) with its crimping section to the insulation crimp section of the crimp terminal, the weakened segments of the crimping section break open or bend in an elastic and/or plastic manner. Thereby, the wire seal is mounted to the crimp terminal with its relatively hard component, and its relatively soft component protrudes from a trailing end of the crimp terminal ready for sealing the crimp terminal in a contact chamber against the environment of the contact chamber.
  • the crimping section of the wire seal is preferably a non-rotation-symmetric section due to the weakened segment.
  • the sealing section of the wire seal is preferably a rotation-symmetric section.
  • a structure of the wire seal is kept together by a force closure, a form closure and/or an adhesive bond. The latter may be achieved by gluing the crimping section and the sealing section to each other or by a two-component moulding process.
  • the wire seal according to the second variant of the invention comprises a sealing section for sealing off the electric crimp terminal against an environment.
  • the wire seal further comprises an anti-kink section at a trailing end of the sealing section, wherein the anti-kink section prevents an electric wire from being bent or buckled at the trailing end of the sealing section.
  • the anti-kink section preferably comprises an anti-kink body which is preferably shaped as an essentially hollow-cylindrical portion. Further, the anti-kink section preferably further comprises a grommet or sleeve at a trailing end portion of the anti-kink body.
  • the anti-kink section By means of the anti-kink section, it is possible to avoid bending the electric wire with a comparatively small radius. Thus, buckling of the electric wire is effectively avoided.
  • the grommet or sleeve at the trailing portion together with the anti-kink body achieves this goal, because by appearance of a bending or buckling force at the end of a crimped electric cable the grommet or sleeve continuously introduces a bending force into the anti-kink body and from there into a housing for the crimp terminal. The mechanical tensions do not remain in the electric wire, as they are expanded and deflected into the housing.
  • a flexibility or a mechanical pliability of the anti-kink section or the anti-kink body may correspond to a flexibility or a mechanical pliability of the sealing section.
  • a median axial section modulus of the anti-kink section or the anti-kink body preferably corresponds to a median axial section modulus of the sealing section. I. e. these values do not differ more than essentially 5%, 10%, 15%, 20%, 25%, 50%, 75% or 100% from one another.
  • a length of the anti-kink section, a length of the anti-kink body and/or a length of the grommet may amount to essentially 50%, 75%, 100%, 125%, 150% or 200% of the length of the sealing section or the crimping section.
  • the wire seal preferably comprises a crimping section at a leading end of the sealing section for crimping the wire seal to the electric crimp terminal.
  • the wire seal is preferably made from a comparatively soft silicone or rubber, wherein the wire seal may be produced by preferably a one-shot injection moulding process.
  • the anti-kink section, the sealing section and the crimping section are preferably produced as a one-piece or integral wire seal.
  • a structure of the wire seal is kept together by a material bond (adhesion) and/or cohesion.
  • the anti-kink section, the sealing section and/or the crimping section, or the wire seal are rotationally symmetrical.
  • a changeover of the anti-kink body to the grommet or sleeve may be an abrupt (circumferential zone of discontinuity) or a continuous changeover.
  • a course of a cavity of the wire seal in the anti-kink section for the wire may be a tapering in the direction of the trailing end.
  • an inner diameter of the grommet may preferably be less than an outer diameter of an insulation of the wire.
  • the crimping section may comprise a projection or collar preferably at a leading end of the crimping section.
  • the sealing section preferably comprises at least one outer and/or at least one inner sealing lip.
