Definitions

  • the invention therefore aims to at least partially overcome the disadvantages of the prior art by providing a connector providing electromagnetic protection of electrical cables by allowing a simplified electrical and mechanical connection between a shield and connector element.
  • said holding ferrule has a rear end applying pressure on the shield toward the connector housing to provide a mechanical and electrical connection between the shield and the connector housing on a connector.
  • first connection area on the entire perimeter of the connector housing.
  • the holding ferrule extends at least from the rear face of the connector housing to the positioning means which it covers thereby forming two mechanical stops between the retaining ferrule and the connector housing.
  • the connector has a substantially rectangular cross section.
  • the connector housing has positioning means, the distinct front ends are crimped against the positioning means.
  • the connector 1 has a substantially rectangular section.
  • the holding ferrule 11 has a front end 35 and a rear end 37 along the longitudinal axis X.
  • the front end 35 has four distinct end portions 35a, 35b, 35c, 35d delimited by dotted lines and issuing respectively from the four ferrule faces 23, 25, 27, 29. These four distinct end portions 35a, 35b, 35c, 35d are for example obtained by cutting the corners of the front end 35 of the holding ferrule 11.
  • the rear end 37 of the holding ferrule 11, arranged around the connector housing 7, applies a pressure on the shielding sheath 5 in the direction of the connector housing 7.
  • this pressure is distributed over the perimeter of the shielding sheath 5 and allows a connection between the shield 5 and the connector housing 7 on a connection zone I , called the first connection zone I.
  • the connection established by the holding ferrule 11 between the shield 5 and the connector housing 7 is a shielding recovery.
  • the connector 1 improves the electromagnetic protection with respect to the prior art. Indeed, by directly connecting the shield 5 to the element providing protection against electromagnetic disturbances rather than an intermediate element is reduced the risk of loss of electrical continuity.
  • the third connection zone III is located at the openings 14.
  • the electrical cables 3 are protected by the internal sleeves 9 and are therefore not damaged by the deformation.
  • the protective sheath is also threaded around the connector housing 7 to the level of the positioning means 21a, 21b.
  • the holding ferrule 11 is placed around the protective sheath.
  • the crimping may for example be performed with a blade for folding the distinct front ends 35a and 35b against the positioning means 21a, 21b.
  • This third connection zone III is located between the first connection zone I and the second connection zone II along the longitudinal axis X, and extends transversely on the two large ferrule faces 23, 25.
  • Stamping is represented by arrows 40.
