Definitions

  • the invention relates to a connector which has a housing, wherein the housing has a housing lower part and a lid for closing the housing lower part, wherein the cover is arranged by means of a fastening device pivotable on the housing lower part.
  • Connectors in particular heavy industrial connectors, usually have a two-part housing formed, which consists essentially of a lower housing part and a lid.
  • a plug face exhibiting contact insert is usually arranged, wherein the mating face, if the contact insert is not connected to a mating contact insert is covered or hidden by the lid by the lid rests on the lower housing part and the housing is thereby closed.
  • the lid is fastened via a fastening device to the housing lower part.
  • the fastening device is usually connected via a screw or rivet connection. If only one screw or one rivet is used, unwanted twisting of the fastening device may occur, in particular if the fastening device is loaded frequently by opening and closing the cover.
  • DE 10 2010 061384 A1 discloses a connector according to the preamble of claim 1. The invention is therefore based on the object to provide a connector available, in which with a reduced installation effort a twist-proof attachment of a lid to a lower housing part of a housing of the connector can be achieved.
  • the fastening device is designed for fastening a cover to a housing lower part of a plurality of components, which cooperate with one another in the mounted state.
  • the fastening device essentially has a receiving element, a holder element and a spring element, which are preferably designed as separate components, but may also be formed integrally with each other.
  • the receiving element and the holder element are preferably as well as the housing, ie, the lower housing part and the lid, made of a plastic, preferably a reinforced plastic, more preferably a glass fiber reinforced plastic formed.
  • the receiving element is preferably releasably attached in the mounted state on an outer side of the housing lower part.
  • locking cam can also be provided more than one locking cam and more than one opening. If only one latching cam is provided, this is preferably in the form of an elongated web which extends over preferably at least 2/3 of the width of the receiving element. If two or more locking cams are provided, these are preferably side by side, spaced from each other in a plane and thus preferably not offset from each other, but also a staggered arrangement is possible.
  • the screw is preferably a self-tapping screw, whereby the assembly effort can be further reduced.
  • the self-tapping screw no complicated to produce threaded hole must be introduced in the lower housing part before the mounting of the fastening device takes place on the housing, but the self-tapping can independently in the material of the housing by cutting the material, in particular the plastic material of the housing, screw.
  • the self-tapping can independently in the material of the housing by cutting the material, in particular the plastic material of the housing, screw.
  • To facilitate Eindus- or Einschneidvorganges may be formed in the lower housing part a bore into which the screw can engage during assembly, the bore but then has no thread, but this only from the screw itself by screwing and thus cutting the Screw is introduced.
  • the spring element bears with a free end on the bearing portion of the holder element, wherein during a pivoting movement of the lid, the free end of the spring element is tensioned.
  • a pivoting movement of the lid of the bearing area is pressed against the free end of the spring element and slides on a side surface of the free end of the spring element along, so that the free end of the spring element is tensioned and thus a Force of the spring element acts on the storage area, which must be overcome in order to continue to pivot the lid can.
  • This force acting on the bearing area by the spring element allows the cover to be held securely in the open and closed positions of the lid, and also enables secure holding of the lid in an intermediate position between the open and closed positions.
  • the tension or bias of the spring element ensures that the lid on the edge of the housing base, preferably on a resting on the edge of the housing base seal, which then forms the top of the housing base is pressed.
  • the holder element of the lid preferably has a recess, wherein in a closed state of the lid the spring element is at least partially immersed in the recess formed on the holder element of the lid.
  • the free end of the spring element can dive into the recess in the closed state of the lid.
  • the spring element is preferably designed as a leaf spring.
  • the spring element designed as a leaf spring is preferably plate-shaped, in particular in the form of a substantially rectangular, flat plate, wherein in the region of the free end of the spring element, the spring element is reduced in width, so that the free end of the spring element is narrower than that Rest of the spring element.
  • the free End of the spring element may thus have the shape of a spring tongue.
  • the receiving element has a groove-shaped guide, in which a formed on the lower housing part projection is engaged.
  • the receiving element in the region of the rotatable arrangement of the bearing portion of the holder element on the receiving element has two opposing side walls which are resilient and between which the storage area is clamped. Due to the resilient configuration of the side walls of the receiving element, between which the storage area is held in the assembled state, the assembly can be simplified when inserting the storage area of the holder element in the receiving element, since the side walls can spring slightly outward.
  • Fig. 1 shows a connector according to the invention, which has a preferably formed of a plastic material housing 1.
  • the housing 1 has a lower housing part 2, in which contact inserts not shown here can be arranged, and a lid 3 for closing the housing lower part 2.
