Definitions

  • the invention relates to a subassembly for an electrical plug type connector which can be connected to a mating connector in an insertion direction.
  • the invention further relates to a kit for producing at least two differently constructed electrical plug type connectors.
  • a first contact securing member secures contact elements which are inserted into the universal insert in an insertion direction against falling out or being removed from the universal insert.
  • a second contact securing member which can be introduced into the plug type connector prevents the first contact securing member from opening.
  • a correct relative position between the housing and the universal insert is achieved by means of different positioning elements. The assembly of such an electrical plug type connector from its individual components is very complex and takes several steps.
  • EP 1 211 757 A1 discloses an electrical connector with an inner part and an outer part.
  • a subassembly for an electrical plug type connector comprises a housing and a universal insert having a first contact securing member which, in the secured state, prevents relative movement between the universal insert and contact elements inserted into the universal insert, and the housing having a receiving chamber open at one end for the universal insert and a second contact securing member which is formed on the housing in one piece and which blocks opening of the first contact securing member when the universal insert is correctly inserted into the receiving chamber.
  • the universal insert forms a kit for a connector system together with two differently constructed housings, in which the universal insert can be inserted.
  • a universal insert can be inserted into the receiving chamber of the housing.
  • Conductors of a cable can be fitted to the universal insert.
  • contact elements can be fitted to the conductors of the cable and can be introduced into the universal insert.
  • the housing forms an electrical plug type connector which can be connected to a mating connector in an insertion direction.
  • the second contact securing member prevents the first contact securing member from opening, for example, by blocking deflection of the first contact securing member. This allows the universal insert to be inserted simply and correctly in a single step. Since the second contact securing member is integral with the housing, that is to say that the housing and the second contact securing member are a single component, production and assembly are possible in a time-saving and cost-saving manner. An object of the invention is to allow an easy spacing of the housing and the universal insert.
  • a spacing collar is in a state associated with the open end of the housing, wherein the spacing collar causes the universal insert to be spaced apart from the housing at the open end and the universal insert is centrally fitted to the open end in the housing, wherein the spacing collar is located within the housing in the assembled state.
  • the second contact securing member may project counter to the insertion direction into the receiving chamber, which may allow a particularly positive-locking and therefore stable connection.
  • the second contact securing member may be located at the other end of the receiving chamber opposite the open end in the insertion direction, which may facilitate the insertion operation.
  • the second contact securing member may simultaneously be a positioning member or spacer which ensures a correct relative position between the universal insert and the housing.
  • the first contact securing member may be a resiliently deflectable contact securing member.
  • the second contact securing member can prevent, for example, block, a deflection of the first contact securing member.
  • the first contact securing member is a resiliently deflectable finger or arm having an engaging face for the contact elements.
  • the first contact securing member can close automatically if the contact elements are correctly inserted into the universal insert.
  • the first contact securing member can be snap-fitted or engage in corresponding counter-elements of the contact elements.
  • the first contact securing member may be a snap-fit element.
  • the first contact securing member can be a lug, for example, a snap-fit lug, which snap-fits automatically into the contact elements. Therefore, the first contact securing member may instead be constructed to be planar in order to be able to apply a more powerful securing force.
  • the lug may extend, for example, in the insertion direction and transversely relative to the insertion direction.
  • the lug may be deflectable, for instance, transversely relative to the insertion direction and transversely relative to its planar extent.
  • the second contact securing member may secure only a single contact element.
  • a single second contact securing member may also simultaneously secure a plurality of first contact securing members.
  • the second contact securing member may be of rib-like form. Such a planar embodiment results in a large contact surface-area between the universal insert and the second contact securing member.
  • Such a rib may extend in particular counter to the insertion direction and in a direction which is transverse relative to the insertion direction.
  • the thickness of the rib may be constant in the insertion direction.
  • the width of the rib may also be constant transversely relative to the insertion direction. Alternatively, the thickness and/or the width may taper towards the open end in order to configure the introduction of the universal insert as simply as possible and to guide it.
  • a rib-like construction blocks relative movement of the universal insert relative to the housing in a first transverse direction.
  • positioning elements may extend in the insertion direction. Therefore, they can act as an additional guide for the universal insert.
  • the blade-like or rib-like second contact securing member may extend transversely relative to the insertion direction from one wall to the other wall of the receiving chamber.
  • the second contact securing member can therefore be secured to the walls or directly merge into the wall if the second contact securing member is produced together with the wall, for example, by injection-moulding.
  • Such a construction considerably increases the contact length between the housing and the second contact securing member in the insertion direction, which increases the stability of the second contact securing member. Deformation or damage during insertion or introduction of the universal insert may be prevented.
  • the contact surface-area between the second contact securing member and the universal insert can be increased by using the complete width of the inner space.
  • the receiving chamber of the housing can be delimited at the other end opposite the open end by a base plate which extends transversely relative to the insertion direction.
  • a base plate can prevent the universal insert from being introduced too far into the housing. Therefore, the base plate can act as a stop for the universal housing.
  • the base plate can further act as a base for the second contact securing member.
  • the base plate may extend particularly along the entire inner contour of the housing. It may extend between two walls of the housing.
  • Channels for conductors of the electrical plug type connector or the mating connector can be provided in the base plate. Furthermore, air channels can be provided in the base plate and allow air to be discharged during assembly and therefore easier assembly.
  • the second contact securing member can be connected to the base plate.
  • the second contact securing member can be arranged on the base plate.
  • the second contact securing member and the base plate can be integrally connected to each other.
  • the housing may have a second contact securing member and a base plate which are integral with each other.
  • the entire housing may be a single injection-moulding component.
  • the housing may have a mating connector receiving chamber for receiving the mating connector.
  • the mating connector receiving chamber may adjoin the receiving chamber in the insertion direction.
  • a base plate can be fitted between the receiving chamber and the mating connector receiving chamber.
  • a guide element which is preferably in the form of a kojiri rib and which extends in the insertion direction and counter to the direction of the second contact securing member.
  • the guide element may extend, for example, away from a base plate.
  • a plurality of second contact securing members may also be provided in the housing.
  • the one or more second contact securing member(s) can be arranged symmetrically in the housing.
  • a single second contact securing member can be constructed symmetrically. For example, it may be point-symmetrical or axially symmetrical.
  • a plurality of second contact securing members they may have, for example, symmetry relative to a centre of the housing. In particular, their positions may be symmetrical.
  • a universal insert which can be inserted into the receiving chamber forms a subassembly for an electrical plug type connector together with a housing according to the invention.
  • the universal insert can be introduced or inserted into the receiving chamber of the housing in the insertion direction.
  • the universal insert is advantageously at least partially complementary with respect to the housing in terms of cross-section.
  • the universal insert and the housing can be connected to each other in an at least partially positive-locking manner at least transversely relative to the insertion direction.
  • the universal insert may fill the receiving chamber of the housing completely or partially. Alternatively, the universal insert may project out of the receiving chamber in the assembled state.
  • a universal insert may have a pocket which receives the second contact securing member in a positive-locking manner in the inserted state.
  • a pocket may be a counter-element or a receiving element for the second contact securing member. Therefore, a pocket can block a relative movement of the universal insert not only in one direction but also in the opposite direction.
  • the pocket may be spaced apart from the housing at least in portions transversely relative to the insertion direction.
  • the pocket may be constructed so as to be shaft-like if the second contact securing member is rather pin-like. In such a construction, relative movement is blocked in all directions transversely relative to the insertion direction.
  • the pocket may be constructed in a slot-like manner, specifically in order to receive rib-like or blade-like second contact securing members.
  • the pocket may extend transversely relative to the insertion direction in order to be adapted to second contact securing members which extend transversely relative to the insertion direction.
  • the pocket may extend over the entire cross-section transversely relative to the insertion direction in order to receive a second contact securing member which extends transversely relative to the insertion direction from one wall to the other wall.
  • the universal insert may have a plurality of pockets in order to receive a plurality of second contact securing members. Individual pockets may be constructed in such a manner that they can receive second contact securing members of different housings.
  • the universal insert may also have a plurality of pockets, only one of which is fitted to a second contact securing member of a housing.
  • a plurality of pockets can be slot-like and extend parallel with each other. Intersecting slot-like pockets can further be provided.
  • a single second contact securing member can act as a second contact securing member for a plurality of first contact securing members.
  • a plurality of first contact securing members can be arranged on two opposing walls of the slot.
  • the second contact securing member can simultaneously secure both first contact securing members, for example, in that it blocks deflections of the first two contact securing members.
  • a single pocket can be constructed symmetrically so that the universal insert can be introduced into the housing in the insertion direction in different rotation positions.
  • a plurality of pockets can be arranged symmetrically so that the universal insert can be introduced into the housing in the insertion direction in a plurality of rotation positions.
  • the first contact securing member can automatically change into the secured state by means of the resilient force of engaging or snap-fit elements, in particular if the contact elements inserted are correctly inserted.
  • a spacing collar can be arranged at the open end in the assembled state.
  • the spacing collar may be arranged, for example, on the housing and/or on the universal insert.
  • the spacing collar can partially take on the positioning or spacing function of a positioning member or support it.
  • the spacing collar can ensure that the universal insert and the housing are also spaced apart from each other at the open end. For example, an end which is thickened transversely relative to the insertion direction can be fitted to the housing and/or the universal insert.
  • the first contact securing member can be constructed in such a manner that it strikes the second contact securing member in a frontal manner in the insertion direction and blocks additional movement of the universal insert relative to the housing if a contact element is introduced incompletely or incorrectly into a receiving chamber of the universal insert.
  • a third contact securing member which prevents movement of the housing relative to the universal insert may be in a state associated with the open end of the housing. In the assembled state, a third contact securing member can be arranged at the open end. For example, the third contact securing member may be located on the housing and/or on the universal insert.
  • a third contact securing member can be constructed by an engaging or snap-fit mechanism.
  • a resiliently deflectable element can snap-fit, after the universal insert has been introduced, into a securing position, from which it is extracted again only by the third contact securing member being opened manually.
  • a kit according to the invention comprises at least one universal insert and at least two differently constructed housings, the universal insert being able to be joined to each housing so as to form a subassembly according to the invention for an electrical plug type connector.
  • the housings can be constructed in such a manner that the electrical plug type connector can be connected to different fixing elements.
  • the housings can be constructed so as to at least partially complement corresponding fixing elements.
  • the housings in a kit according to the invention may each have different advantageous embodiments, as mentioned above.
  • Figure 1 is a cross-section through a housing 1 according to the invention in a longitudinal plane.
  • the insertion direction S in which the plug type connector can be combined with the mating connector is in the plane of section.
  • the housing 1 has a receiving chamber 2 which is open at one end.
  • a universal insert can be introduced into the open end 3 of the receiving chamber 2.
  • two second contact securing members 5 project counter to the insertion direction S into the receiving chamber 2.
  • the second contact securing member 5A is spaced apart at a spacing D1 from a first wall W1 of the inner contour C of the receiving chamber 2.
  • the second contact securing member 5A extends parallel with the first wall W1.
  • the second contact securing member 5B is spaced apart at a spacing D2 from a second wall W2 of the inner contour C of the receiving chamber 2.
  • the second contact securing member 5B extends parallel with the second wall W2.
  • the second contact securing member 5B further extends parallel with the second contact securing member 5A.
  • the thickness T1 of the second contact securing member 5A measured in the thickness direction T is constant in the insertion direction S.
  • the thickness T2 of the second contact securing member 5B measured in the thickness direction T is also constant in the insertion direction S.
  • Both second contact securing members extend in a width direction B.
  • the width direction B is perpendicular to the thickness direction T and perpendicular to the insertion direction S.
  • the thickness direction T is further perpendicular relative to the insertion direction S.
  • the two second contact securing members 5 therefore have a planar construction.
  • the second contact securing members 5 are rib-like or blade-like.
  • the receiving chamber 2 is delimited by a base plate 6.
  • the base plate 6 extends along an entire cross-section of an inner contour C of the housing 1.
  • air channels 7 are provided in the base plate 6.
  • the two second contact securing members 5 are connected to the base plate 6. Therefore, the base plate 6 is a basis for the two second contact securing members 5.
  • a height HI of the second contact securing member 5A measured in the insertion direction S is smaller than a height H2 of the second contact securing member 5B measured in the insertion direction S. It is thereby possible to prevent a universal insert which is intended to be inserted into the receiving chamber 2 from being incorrectly inserted.
  • the housing 1 further has a mating connector receiving chamber 8, in which a mating connector (not shown) can be introduced.
  • a mating connector (not shown)
  • the kojiri rib 9 extends away from the base plate 6 in the direction which is counter to the direction of the second contact securing members 5. Therefore, the kojiri rib 9 extends in the insertion direction S.
  • All the components of the housing 1 shown here are integrally connected to each other.
  • the entire housing 1 is a single injection-moulding component.
  • Figure 2 is a cross-section of a subassembly 10 according to the invention for a plug type connector 10' comprising a housing 1 according to the invention and a universal insert 11 in the assembled state.
  • the universal insert 11 is completely inserted into the receiving chamber 2 of the housing 1. To that end, it was pushed in the insertion direction S into the receiving chamber 2 until it abutted the base plate 6 which acts as a stop 12.
  • the universal insert 11 has a plurality of pockets 13 which extend in an insertion direction S.
  • the pockets 13 shown here are slot-like pockets 14 which also extend further in the width direction B which extends perpendicularly relative to the insertion direction S.
  • the second contact securing members 5 are received in the slot-like pockets 14.
  • the slot-like pockets 14 are positive-locking with respect to the second contact securing members 5. They extend parallel with the insertion direction S and therefore space an end face 15 of the universal insert 11 apart from the housing 10 at least in cross-section. They ensure that the universal insert 11 is centrally positioned in the housing 10. Therefore, the second contact securing members simultaneously act as positioning members 40 in this instance.
  • the universal insert 11 has a first contact securing member 16 in the form of a plurality of deflectable arms 17, only one of which can be seen in this sectional view.
  • the first contact securing member 16 can secure in the secured state G shown here contact elements (not shown) which can be fitted in a contact element chamber 18.
  • a relative movement between the contact elements and the universal insert 11 is no longer possible in that secured state G, particularly not in the insertion direction S.
  • the resiliently deflectable arm 17 would have to be deflected in the release direction L. If the universal insert 11 were not fitted to the housing 1, the resiliently deflectable arm 17 could move in the release direction L because a pocket 13 in the universal insert 11 is present in this direction.
  • the second contact securing member 5A engages in the first pocket 13A and thereby blocks movement of the resiliently deflectable arm 17 of the first contact securing member 16 in the release direction L, and consequently opening of the first contact securing member 16. Therefore, the second contact securing member 5 prevents the first contact securing member 16 from opening by blocking movement of the resiliently deflectable arm 17 in the release direction L.
  • the universal insert 11 cannot be completely introduced into the receiving chamber 2 because the second contact securing member 5 collides with the resiliently deflectable arm 17 in a frontal manner and blocks relative movement of the universal insert 11 relative to the housing 1 in the insertion direction S.
  • the subassembly 10 shown here has a third contact securing member 19 which blocks relative movement between the housing 1 and the universal insert 11. This is constructed in the form of a snap-fit mechanism 20.

  • the resiliently deflectable snap-fit arms 21 engage behind the universal insert 11 and prevent the universal insert 11 from falling out of the housing 1.
  • the subassembly 10 shown has a spacing collar 22 which is associated with the open end 3 of the receiving chamber 2. In the assembled state shown here, therefore, the spacing collar 22 is located at the open end 3 of the receiving chamber 2 of the housing 1.
  • the spacing collar 22 causes the universal insert 11 also to be spaced apart from the housing 1 at the open end 3, that is to say that the universal insert 11 is centrally fitted to the open end 3 in the housing 1.
  • Figure 3 is a perspective view of a housing 1 according to the invention. The view is directed into the receiving chamber 2.
  • the outer front contour 23 of the housing 2 is adapted to a fixing element.
