Description

Die Erfindung betrifft ein Terminal zur Kontaktierung eines elektrischen Leiters.The invention relates to a terminal for contacting an electrical conductor.

Terminals zur Kontaktierung eines elektrischen Leiters oder anderer elektrischer Bauteile sind aus dem Stand der Technik umfänglich bekannt. So offenbart beispielsweise die DE 20 2004 020 191 U1 eine Einschub-Kontaktierung zwischen einem Wickelgut, z.B. der Spule eines Transformators, und einer Leiterplatte mittels einer Schneidklemme. Die vorzugsweise mit Klemm-Zungen versehene Schneidklemme wird in eine auf einer Leiterplatte elektrisch und mechanisch befestigte Steckbrücke eingeschoben, wodurch sich eine sichere elektrische Verbindung durch das elastische Zurückbiegen der Klemm-Zungen sowie durch das mechanische Einschneiden der Klemm-Zungen in die Steckbrücke ergibt.Terminals for contacting an electrical conductor or other electrical components are well known in the art. For example, the DE 20 2004 020 191 U1 a plug-in contact between a winding material, such as the coil of a transformer, and a circuit board by means of a cutting clamp. The cutting terminal preferably provided with clamping tongues is inserted into a jumper on an electrically and mechanically fixed jumper, resulting in a secure electrical connection by the elastic bending back of the clamping tongues and by the mechanical cutting of the clamping tongues in the jumper.

Aus der DE 10 2010 033 545 A1 geht eine Vorrichtung zur Kontaktierung elektrischer Leiter mit einem Gehäuse und je einer Schneidklemme hervor. Die Schneidklemme ist in das Gehäuse eingesetzt.From the DE 10 2010 033 545 A1 goes out a device for contacting electrical conductors with a housing and a respective insulation displacement terminal. The insulation displacement terminal is inserted into the housing.

Aus der EP 1 291 984 A1 geht ein Verfahren zur Herstellung einer elektrischen Schneidklemmverbindung hervor.From the EP 1 291 984 A1 shows a method for producing an electrical insulation displacement connection.

Hierbei werden einzelne Leitungen in einen IDC-Stecker (IDC = insulation displacement connection) von oben eingelegt und mit einem Werkzeug, das Druck in Vertikalrichtung von oben nach unten ausübt, kontaktiert. Die elektrische Verbindung der Kontakte mit den Leitungen wird hierbei durch Einpressen der Leitungen in Schneidklemmen von oben nach unten hergestellt. Dabei wird das Isolationsmaterial der Leitungen von den Schneiden oder Flanken der Schneidklemmen eingeschnitten und verdrängt und die freigelegten Kupferlitzen werden durch die Federwirkung dieser Flanken dauerhaft eingeklemmt.Here, individual lines are inserted into an IDC connector (IDC = insulation displacement connection) from above and contacted with a tool that exerts pressure in the vertical direction from top to bottom. The electrical connection of the contacts with the lines is hereby made by pressing the wires in insulation displacement from top to bottom. The insulating material of the lines is cut and displaced by the cutting edges or flanks of the insulation displacement and the exposed copper strands are permanently clamped by the spring action of these flanks.

Bei sämtlichen dieser Schneidklemmverbindungen werden die Leitungen jeweils von oben nach unten in entsprechende Öffnungen eingelegt und auch von oben nach unten durch Ausübung einer Fügekraft mittels Schneidklemm-Technik kontaktiert und fixiert.In all of these insulation displacement connections, the lines are each inserted from top to bottom in corresponding openings and also contacted and fixed from top to bottom by exercising a joining force using insulation displacement technology.

Hierbei wird eine Kraft von oben nach unten ausgeübt. Sehr oft sind die Gehäuse, Stecker und dergleichen, in denen die Leitungen kontaktiert werden müssen, auf Leiterplatten befestigt, sodass die Kraft auf eine Leiterplatte ausgeübt wird, was in vielen Fällen unerwünscht ist. Da außerdem die Schneid-Klemm-Kontaktierung in die gleiche Richtung erfolgt wie das Einlegen der Leitung, besteht die Gefahr, dass die Leitungen aus der SchneidKlemmverbindung - zumindest dann, wenn eine hohe Zugkraft auf die Leitungen ausgeübt wird - entfernt werden können und so die elektrische Kontaktierung unterbrochen wird.Here, a force is exerted from top to bottom. Very often, the housings, plugs and the like, in which the leads must be contacted, are mounted on printed circuit boards, so that the force is exerted on a printed circuit board, which is undesirable in many cases. In addition, since the insulation displacement contact in the same direction as the insertion of the line, there is a risk that the lines from the insulation displacement connection - at least when a high tensile force is exerted on the lines - can be removed and so the electrical Contacting is interrupted.

DE 202 14 727 U1 offenbart ein Terminal zur Kontaktierung eines elektrischen Leiters nach dem Oberbegriff des Anspruch 1. Weitere Kontakte gemäß dem Stand der Technik sind aus EP 2 500 981 A1 , US 3 808 582 A und US 7 326 069 B1 bekannt. DE 202 14 727 U1 discloses a terminal for contacting an electrical conductor according to the preamble of claim 1. Further contacts according to the prior art are made EP 2 500 981 A1 . US Pat. No. 3,808,582 A and US Pat. No. 7,326,069 B1 known.

Offenbarung der ErfindungDisclosure of the invention

Das erfindungsgemäße Terminal zur Kontaktierung eines elektrischen Leiters mit den Merkmalen des Anspruchs 1 hat demgegenüber den Vorteil, dass die elektrische Leitung zwar von oben in ein Gehäuse einlegbar ist, wozu die längliche Öffnung zum Einlegen des elektrischen Leiters vorgesehen ist, jedoch die Schneid-Klemm-Kontaktierung von der Seite her und im Wesentlichen senkrecht zur länglichen Öffnung und zur Einlegerichtung erfolgt. Auf diese Weise wird bei der Schneid-Klemm-Kontaktierung kein Druck beispielsweise auf eine Leiterplatte, auf der das Terminal montiert ist, ausgeübt. Die Schneid-Klemm-Kontaktierung kann durch ein zangenartiges Werkzeug erfolgen. Dies kann insbesondere auch automatisch mittels eines Handhabungsautomaten beispielsweise in einer Fertigungsstraße geschehen, sodass das erfindungsgemäße Terminal einer automatischen Fertigung gut zugänglich ist. Darüber hinaus wird durch die quer zu Öffnung verlaufende Schneid-Klemm-Kontaktierung ein sicheres Halten des elektrischen Leiters ermöglicht. Insbesondere kann der elektrische Leiter nicht mehr - auch nicht unter Ausübung einer größeren Kraft - aus der länglichen Öffnung herausgezogen werden, wie dies bei den aus dem Stand der Technik bekannten elektrischen Schneid-Klemm-Verbindungen möglich ist. Das erfindungsgemäße Terminal ermöglicht damit nicht nur eine einfache und automatische Fertigung, sondern auch eine sichere und nahezu zerstörungsfreie Befestigung eines mittels Schneid-Klemm-Kontaktierung befestigten Leiters.The inventive terminal for contacting an electrical conductor with the features of claim 1 has the advantage that the Although electrical line can be inserted from above into a housing, for which purpose the elongated opening is provided for inserting the electrical conductor, but the insulation displacement contacting takes place from the side and substantially perpendicular to the elongated opening and the insertion direction. In this way, no pressure is exerted, for example, on a printed circuit board on which the terminal is mounted in the insulation displacement contact. The insulation displacement contact can be done by a pliers-like tool. This can in particular also be done automatically by means of an automatic handling machine, for example in a production line, so that the terminal according to the invention is readily accessible to automatic production. In addition, a secure holding of the electrical conductor is made possible by the transverse to opening extending insulation displacement contact. In particular, the electrical conductor can not be pulled out of the oblong opening, not even when a larger force is exerted, as is possible with the electrical insulation displacement connections known from the prior art. The terminal according to the invention thus enables not only a simple and automatic production, but also a secure and virtually nondestructive attachment of a conductor fastened by means of insulation displacement contacting.

Durch die in den abhängigen Ansprüchen aufgeführten Maßnahmen sind vorteilhafte Weiterbildungen und Verbesserungen des in dem unabhängigen Anspruch 1 angegebenen Terminals möglich. Der Erfindung nach sind zwei Schneidklemmen vorgesehen, die jeweils in Leiterrichtung gesehen am vorderen und am hinteren Ende der länglichen Öffnung positioniert sind. Hierdurch wird nicht nur die Kontaktierung verbessert, sondern der elektrische Leiter gleichzeitig auch in der länglichen Öffnung besonders gut fixiert und damit gehalten.The measures listed in the dependent claims advantageous refinements and improvements of the independent claim 1 terminal are possible. According to the invention, two insulation displacement terminals are provided, which are each positioned in the conductor direction at the front and at the rear end of the elongated opening. As a result, not only the contact is improved, but the electrical conductor is also very well fixed and held in the elongated opening at the same time.

Dabei sind die beiden Schneidklemmen der Erfindung nach an einem U-förmigen Bügel angeordnet und mit diesem gemeinsam zur Ausbildung von Schneid-Klemm-Kontakten quer zur Öffnung in Richtung des elektrischen Leiters bewegbar. Auf diese Weise wird mit einer einzigen "Zangenbewegung" eine Kontaktierung und Befestigung des elektrischen Leiters in der länglichen Öffnung und damit in dem Gehäuse des Terminals ermöglicht.The two cutting clamps of the invention are arranged according to a U-shaped bracket and movable with this together to form insulation displacement contacts transversely to the opening in the direction of the electrical conductor. In this way, with a single "forceps movement" contacting and attachment of the electrical conductor in the elongated opening and thus in the housing of the terminal allows.

Der U-förmige Bügel der Erfindung nach mit einem Anschlusselement verbunden, welches auf seiner dem U-förmigen Bügel abgewandten Seite Kontaktelemente zur Kontaktierung mit Leiterbahnen einer Leiterplatte aufweist, Auf diese Weise ist eine unmittelbare Kontaktierung des elektrischen Leiters mit entsprechenden Leiterbahnen einer Leiterplatte möglich. Der Erfindung nach sind der U-förmige Bügel und das Anschlusselement einstückig miteinander verbunden. Die Kontaktelemente können Einpresskontaktelemente sein, sie können aber auch als zur Oberflächenverlötung ausgebildete Lötkontaktelemente ausgebildet sein.
Eine vorteilhafte Ausgestaltung sieht vor, dass das Anschlusselement ein im wesentlichen im rechten Winkel von dem U-förmigen Bügel abgebogenes Anschlussblech ist, an dessen unteren, dem U-förmigen Bügel abgewandten Seiten die Kontaktelemente angeordnet sind. Dies ermöglicht eine einfache Montage und eine besonders gute Kontaktierung.
Vorteilhafterweise ist vorgesehen, dass für den U-förmigen Bügel mit den Schneidklemmkontakten und das Anschlusselement in dem Gehäuse Führungen vorgesehen sind, welche ein Einschieben des U-förmigen Bügels zusammen mit den Schneid-Klemm-Kontakten und mit dem Anschlusselement in das Gehäuse ermöglichen. Wenn in diesem Falle die Kontaktelemente bereits beispielsweise auf einer Leiterplatte befestigt sind, wird umgekehrt das Gehäuse relativ zum U-förmigen Bügel verschoben, wobei wiederum die Schneid-Klemm-Kontakte in den Leiter eindringen und dabei das Isolationsmaterial des Leiters von den Schneiden oder Flanken der Schneidklemmen eingeschnitten und verdrängt wird und die freigelegten Kupferlitzen durch die Federwirkung dieser Flanken dauerhaft eingeklemmt werden.
The U-shaped bracket of the invention according to connected to a connection element, which on its side facing away from the U-shaped bracket contact elements for contacting with printed conductors of a printed circuit board, In this way, an immediate contacting of the electrical conductor with corresponding tracks of a circuit board is possible. According to the invention, the U-shaped bracket and the connecting element are integrally connected to each other. The contact elements may be press-fit contact elements, but they may also be designed as solder contact elements designed for surface soldering.
An advantageous embodiment provides that the connection element is a bent substantially at right angles to the U-shaped bracket connection plate, at the bottom, the U-shaped bracket opposite sides, the contact elements are arranged. This allows easy installation and a particularly good contact.
Advantageously, it is provided that guides are provided for the U-shaped bracket with the insulation displacement contacts and the connection element in the housing, which allow insertion of the U-shaped bracket together with the insulation displacement contacts and the connection element in the housing. If, in this case, the contact elements are already attached, for example, on a circuit board, the reverse is the Housing displaced relative to the U-shaped bracket, in turn, the insulation displacement contacts penetrate into the conductor while the insulating material of the conductor is cut and displaced by the edges or flanks of the insulation displacement and the exposed copper strands are permanently clamped by the spring action of these edges ,

Besonders bevorzugt ist vorgesehen, dass die längliche Öffnung in Öffnungsrichtung eine Verjüngung aufweist, die dem Festklemmen eines einzulegenden elektrischen Leiters dient. Auf diese Weise wird der Leiter in der länglichen Öffnung bereits festgehalten noch bevor die Schneid-Klemm-Kontaktierung erfolgt ist. Auch während der Schneid-Klemm-Kontaktierung erweist sich diese Verjüngung als besonders vorteilhaft.Particularly preferably, it is provided that the elongated opening has a taper in the opening direction, which serves to clamp an electrical conductor to be inserted. In this way, the conductor is already held in the elongated opening before the insulation displacement contact is made. Even during the insulation displacement contact, this taper proves to be particularly advantageous.

Das Gehäuse besteht vorzugsweise aus einem Kunststoff.The housing is preferably made of a plastic.

Wie insbesondere der Fig. 2 zu entnehmen ist, weisen die Schneid-Klemm-Kontakte 220 eine gabelförmige Gestalt mit Schneidflanken 221 auf, die das Isolationsmaterial 405 eines Leiters 400 einschneiden und verdrängen und die freigelegten Kupferlitzen 410 ebenfalls teilweise einschneiden oder zumindest aufgrund der Federwirkung der beiden Schneiden der Schneidklemme 220 klemmen. Dies ist schematisch in Fig. 3 dargestellt, welche den kontaktierten und befestigten Zustand eines elektrischen Leiters in dem Terminal 100 zeigt. In Fig. 3 ist darüber hinaus besonders gut zu erkennen, wie der Vorsprung 122 den elektrischen Leiter in einer für die Schneid-Klemm-Kontaktierung günstigen Position hält und insbesondere vor einem Herausfallen aus der länglichen Öffnung 120 sichert. Nachdem der elektrische Leiter auf diese Weise kontaktiert und befestigt wurde, was beispielsweise mittels einer entsprechenden Zange geschehen kann, die eine Kraft auf das U-förmige Element 200 und das Gehäuse 110 ausübt und auf diese Weise ein Hineinschieben der Schneid-Klemmen 210, 220 unter gleichzeitiger Kontaktierung und Fixierung des elektrischen Leiters in dem Gehäuse hervorruft,A designated as a whole by 100 terminal has a housing 110, which consists for example of plastic, in this housing an accessible from above elongated opening 120 is provided, which has a taper 122. Arranged laterally on the housing is a U-shaped bracket 200, on each of which cutting terminals 210 and 220 are arranged. Integrally connected to the U-shaped bracket 200 is a connection element 300. This connection element 300 has, for example, press-fit contacts 301, 302, 303 and 304. These press-in contacts serve to press into corresponding openings on a circuit board, for example (see Fig. 5a to c . Fig. 6 ). As Fig. 1 it can also be seen, in the housing 110 guides 150 and 160 for the U-shaped bracket 200 and the insulation displacement contacts 210, 220 are provided which allow lateral insertion of the insulation displacement contacts in the housing along one direction , which is shown in the figures with an arrow R. How the particular Fig. 2 2, the insulation displacement contacts 220 have a forked shape with cutting edges 221, which cut and displace the insulating material 405 of a conductor 400 and also partially cut the exposed copper strands 410 or at least clamp them due to the spring action of the two cutting edges of the insulation displacement terminal 220 , This is schematically in Fig. 3 which shows the contacted and attached state of an electrical conductor in the terminal 100. In Fig. 3 In addition, it is particularly easy to see how the projection 122 holds the electrical conductor in a favorable position for the insulation displacement contact and in particular from falling out of the elongated opening 120 secures. After the electrical conductor has been contacted and fastened in this way, which can be done for example by means of a corresponding pliers, which exerts a force on the U-shaped element 200 and the housing 110 and in this way pushing in the cutting terminals 210, 220 below causes simultaneous contacting and fixing of the electrical conductor in the housing,

In Fig. 4 ist eine andere Ausführungsform eines erfindungsgemäßen Terminals dargestellt, weiche sich von dem in Fig. 1 bis 3 dargestellten durch die Art der Kontaktierung auf einer Leiterplatte unterscheidet. Statt Einpresskontakten sind hier entsprechende Öffnungen 306, 307, 308, 309 zur Aufnahme von Lot vorgesehen, mittels denen das Anschlusselement 300 auf einer Leiterplatte durch Oberflächenlötung befestigbar ist. Im Übrigen sind gleiche Elemente in Fig. 4 mit den gleichen Bezugszeichen wie in den Fig. 1 bis 3 dargestellt, sodass auf die Ausführungen zu diesen Elementen auf das Vorstehende Bezug genommen wird.In Fig. 4 shows another embodiment of a terminal according to the invention, which differs from the in Fig. 1 to 3 is distinguished by the type of contacting on a circuit board. Instead of press-fit contacts here corresponding openings 306, 307, 308, 309 are provided for receiving solder, by means of which the connection element 300 can be fastened on a circuit board by surface soldering. Incidentally, the same elements are in Fig. 4 with the same reference numerals as in the Fig. 1 to 3 so that the comments on these elements are referred to above.

Die Befestigung des Terminals auf Leiterplatten und die Kontaktierung und Befestigung eines Leiters wird nachfolgend in Verbindung mit den Fig. 5a-d und 6 erläutert.The attachment of the terminal to printed circuit boards and the contacting and attachment of a conductor will be described below in connection with the Fig. 5a-d and 6 explained.

Zunächst wird ein Terminal 100 auf einer Leiterplatte 600 befestigt. Hierzu sind in der Leiterplatte 600 Öffnungen 601, 602, 603, 604 vorgesehen, welche ein Einpressen der Einpresskontakte 301, 302, 303, 304 ermöglicht (siehe Fig. 5a), Nachdem das Terminal 100 auf diese Weise auf der Leiterplatte 600 befestigt wurde (Fig. 5b), wird ein elektrischer Leiter 400 in die längliche Öffnung 12 des Terminals gelegt und dort aufgrund der Verjüngung 122 (Fig. 5c) gehalten. Sodann wird mittels eines (nicht dargestellten) zangenartigen Werkzeugs die Schneid-Klemm-Kontaktierung durch seitliches Einschieben der Schneid-Klemmen 210, 220 hergestellt. Durch die zangenartige Bewegung wird eine Kraft auf den U-förmigen Bügel 200 und auf die ihm gegenüberliegende Gehäuseseite 111 des Gehäuses 110 ausgeübt. Auf diese Weise wird der Leiter 400 in dem Terminal 100 kontaktiert und befestigt. Fig. 6 zeigt die Verbindung zweier Leiterplatten 600 und 700, auf denen jeweils Terminals angeordnet sind, wobei das auf der Leiterplatte 600 angeordnete Terminal ein Terminal mit Einpresskontakten ist, während das auf der Leiterplatte 700 angeordnete Terminal ein Terminal mit SMD-Lötkontakten darstellt. Der Leiter 400 kann die beiden Leiterplatten 600, 700 verbinden.First, a terminal 100 is mounted on a circuit board 600. For this purpose, 600 openings 601, 602, 603, 604 are provided in the printed circuit board, which allows a press-fitting of the press-fit contacts 301, 302, 303, 304 (see Fig. 5a After the terminal 100 has been mounted on the circuit board 600 in this manner ( Fig. 5b ), an electrical conductor 400 is placed in the elongated opening 12 of the terminal and there due to the taper 122 (FIG. Fig. 5c ) held. Then, by means of a (not shown) pliers-like tool, the insulation displacement contact by lateral insertion of the cutting terminals 210, 220 produced. By the forceps-like movement, a force is exerted on the U-shaped bracket 200 and on the opposite housing side 111 of the housing 110. In this way the conductor 400 in the terminal 100 is contacted and fastened. Fig. 6 shows the connection of two circuit boards 600 and 700, on each of which terminals are arranged, wherein the arranged on the circuit board 600 terminal is a terminal with press-fit, while the arranged on the circuit board 700 terminal is a terminal with SMD solder contacts. The conductor 400 may connect the two circuit boards 600, 700.

Der Vorteil des vorstehend beschriebenen Terminals ist 100 es, dass es auch einer automatischen Fertigung zugänglich ist. Der Druck zur Kontaktierung wird dabei nicht auf die Leiterplatte 600, 700 ausgeübt, sondern zangenartig auf das Gehäuse 110 und den U-förmigen Bügel 200. Diese seitliche Druckausübung hat den großen Vorteil, dass sie einer automatischen Fertigung besser zugänglich ist. Darüber hinaus ist eine Beschädigung der Leiterplatte ausgeschlossen. Die seitliche Kontaktierung ermöglicht darüber hinaus ein wesentlich sichereres Halten des Leiters 400 in dem Gehäuse 110 des Terminals 100. Der Leiter 400 ist gewissermaßen in dem Terminal 100 "verriegelt", indem die beiden Schneid-Klemmen, die am vorderen und am hinteren Ende der länglichen Öffnung 120 angeordnet sind, quer zur Öffnung verlaufen und so den Leiter 400 praktisch unlösbar in dem Terminal 100 halten.The advantage of the terminal described above is that it is also accessible to automated manufacturing. The pressure for contacting is not exerted on the circuit board 600, 700, but tongs on the housing 110 and the U-shaped bracket 200. This lateral pressure has the great advantage that it is more accessible to automatic production. In addition, damage to the circuit board is excluded. The lateral contacting also allows much safer holding of the conductor 400 in the housing 110 of the terminal 100. The conductor 400 is effectively "locked" in the terminal 100 by the two cutting clamps at the front and at the rear end of the elongated Opening 120 are arranged, transverse to the opening and thus keep the conductor 400 in the terminal 100 practically insoluble.
