Definitions

  • the invention relates to a round connector unit for shielded electrical cables, with a gripped by a shield sleeve insulator in which a plurality of electrical socket and / or pin-shaped plug contacts are arranged in receiving chambers, wherein the shield sleeve is locked to the insulating body and can be latched to a female housing part of a connector ,
  • Known circular connectors have a plug body designed as an insulating body with therein held contact elements for connecting stranded wires, which has a cable connection side and a plug side.
  • the insulating body is often surrounded, in particular in non-metallic connector housings, by a shielding sleeve, with which the Ablegeflecht of the cable for forwarding the Ablepotenzials is connectable to a mating connector.

  • connectors as a straight or angled connector, each associated with a mating connector with the same mating plug contacts and a Gegencordhülse.
  • different insulator and different shielding sleeves are generally used, which increases the cost of manufacturing and increases the storage cost of these components.
  • the object of the invention to propose an insulating body and a shielding sleeve to reduce the storage costs, which are assembled into a circular connector unit, which are equally applicable to both the connector as well as for the mating connector, so that so that these two embodiments economically can be produced.
  • the plug-side end of the shielding sleeve has an even number of axially extending sleeve segments separated by longitudinal slots.
  • the sleeve segments can extend absolutely parallel or slightly inclined to the connection-side end of the shielding sleeve. Slightly inclined means an intended angle of inclination of typically less than 5 degrees, which is particularly advantageous in spring-trained sleeve segments.
  • the shielding sleeve can safely and reliably electrically contact the counter-shielding sleeve.
  • the measured in the circumferential direction of the shielding sleeve width of the sleeve segments and the longitudinal slots can be chosen arbitrarily.
  • the sleeve segments are therefore distributed evenly distributed in the circumferential direction of the shield sleeve at the front plug-side end of the shielding sleeve.
  • the sleeve segments which follow one another in the circumferential direction of the shielding sleeve, each have a uniform radial offset in an alternating direction to each other.
  • the radial offset can be directed radially inwards and / or outwards relative to the non-segmented part of the shielding sleeve.
  • the distance of two each in the circumferential direction of the shielding sleeve directly successive sleeve segments to the central axis of the shielding sleeve by the same amount is different. This means that each first, third and possibly fifth etc.
  • sleeve segment counted in the circumferential direction of the screen sleeve has, for example, an inner circular path and every second, fourth and possibly sixth etc. sleeve segment along an outer circular path that is concentric with the central axis of the Umbrella sleeve extend, or is arranged vice versa. The distance between these two circular paths corresponds to the radial displacement of the sleeve segments.
  • the sleeve segments have a radially inwardly and / or outwardly directed offset effecting the offset.
  • the cranked sleeve segments extend at least after the Kröpfstelle with an inclination angle to the central axis of the shielding sleeve of a maximum of 5 degrees substantially axially.
  • the sleeve segments closer to the central axis of the shielding sleeve are inwardly bent, while the sleeve segments lying further away from the central axis extend in a straight line or are bent outwardly.
  • the sleeve segments lying closer to the central axis can also have no offset and the sleeve segments which are further spaced from the central axis can be bent outwards.
  • the offset of the sleeve segments preferably corresponds at least to the wall thickness of the shielding sleeve.
  • the offset of the inner and outer sleeve segments may be slightly larger than the wall thickness of the shielding sleeve.
  • the radial offset of the sleeve segments corresponds to the wall thickness of the shielding sleeve.
  • the shielding sleeve in the axial direction short and long sleeve segments, which are arranged alternately successively in the circumferential direction of the shielding sleeve.
  • the short sleeve segments arise, for example, by the cranking of each second sleeve segment, when all the sleeve segments are formed axially equal length before the cranking.
  • the sleeve segments of two identically formed shielding sleeves at a certain rotational offset in the circumferential direction are plugged into each other, resulting in 360 degrees divided by the number of sleeve segments.
  • the respective outer sleeve segments of a twisted shielding sleeve engage over the respective inner sleeve segments of the other shielding sleeve and the outer sleeve segments of the other shielding sleeve overlap the inner sleeve segments of the twisted shielding sleeve, respectively on the outside.
  • the respective sleeve segments are in contact with each other and contact each other safely electrically.
  • a trained shielding sleeve can be used both for a plug part as well as in a mating connector part, if this is installed with appropriate rotation angle offset arranged suitably. This is a trouble nesting of the shield sleeves plug side is possible.
  • the proposed shielding sleeve is preferably manufactured as a rolled stamped and bent part and thus cost.
  • the round connector unit according to the invention has an insulating body accommodated in the shielding sleeve, which is arranged set back near the plug-side end of the shielding sleeve and locked with the shielding sleeve.
  • the central axis of the insulator coincides with received in the shield sleeve insulator with the central axis of the shielding sleeve and forms a longitudinal axis of the circular connector unit.
  • the detent position of insulating body and shielding sleeve is chosen such that the insulator of two circular connector units according to the invention, which are intended for a plug part and a mating connector, when nesting the screen sleeve segments of the shield sleeves are not in the way.
  • the insulating body receiving chambers for the plug contacts which are arranged around a central axis of the insulating body with an angular offset, which results from 360 degrees divided by the number of sleeve segments.
  • the angular offset of the receiving chambers of the insulating body corresponds to the angular displacement of the sleeve segments of the shielding sleeve with respect to the longitudinal axis of the circular connector unit.
  • the symmetrical arrangement of the plug contacts in the insulating body corresponds to the symmetrical arrangement of the sleeve segments on the shielding sleeve.
  • the receiving chambers of the two insulating bodies one of which is arranged in each shielding sleeve, aligned with each other in the axial direction exactly aligned.
  • plug contacts which face each other as a corre sponding designed pin and socket-shaped electrical contacts of the connector and the mating connector each other, are thus plugged into each other without difficulty.
  • the sleeve segments also act as coding of the circular connector, which reliably prevent reverse polarity.
  • each sleeve segment associated receiving chamber can each sleeve segment and several, forming a chamber group receiving chambers be assigned, which are arranged so rotationally symmetrical with respect to the central axis of the insulating body, as is the case with the individual receiving chambers.
  • the receiving chambers of the insulating body are designed such that they can accommodate both pin-shaped and socket-shaped plug contacts.
  • the same insulating body can be used for the plug part as well as for the mating connector part.
  • the insulating body can be made in one piece or several pieces, which is arranged from the cable connection side into the shielding sleeve with arranged in the receiving chambers, posted on the strands of the cable plug contacts from the cable connection side into the insulating body.
