  • such holding frames are usually produced in a die-casting process, in particular in a zinc die-casting process.

  • all the modules must be in the position provided for them at the same time before joining the frame halves located to be finally fixed in the mounting frame when joining the frame halves, which makes mounting difficult.
  • the publication EP 1 801 927 B1 discloses a holding frame, which consists of a one-piece plastic injection molded part.
  • the holding frame is formed as a circumferential collar and has on its side plug a plurality of separated by slots wall segments.

  • the plug-in modules have latching arms, which act on the narrow sides in the direction of the cable connections, molded, and latch below the side collar wall, so that two independent latching means fix the connector modules in the support frame.

  • PE Protection Earth
  • the object is achieved by a method of the type mentioned by the features of the characterizing part of the independent Mauansprpüche 8 and 15.
  • Such a holding frame can be used in the field of heavy industrial connectors and can at least partially consist of an electrically conductive material.
  • a protective grounding is optionally made possible, which can be realized for example by the fact that the holding frame has a PE contact or at least is equipped with such a PE contact.
  • the holding frame has a base portion and a deformation portion, which are at least partially formed of different materials.
  • the base section serves to fix a received module in a plane.
  • the deforming portion may assume an inserting state and a holding state, wherein the inserting state allows insertion of at least one module in a direction transverse to the plane in the holding frame with a received module fixed in the holding state.
  • the holding frame may for example have a base frame as a base portion and at least one, preferably two cheek parts as a deformation portion.
  • the base frame can then be formed of a different material than the cheek parts and thus vorteilhafteniveise lower elasticity and thus have greater rigidity than the cheek parts.
  • the deformation section in particular the one or more cheek parts, may be formed from a material which is more elastic according to its stress / strain diagram, ie has a smaller modulus of elasticity than that material from which the base section, in particular the base frame, is formed.
  • the material of the base portion may be stiffer than the material of which the deformation portion is formed.
  • the material of the base frame according to its stress / strain diagram may have a modulus of elasticity which is greater than the modulus of elasticity of the material of which the cheek parts are formed.
  • the amount of elastic modulus is greater, the more resistance a material opposes its elastic deformation.
  • the material of which the deformation portion is formed may have a larger elastic range corresponding to its stress / strain diagram than the material of which the base portion is formed.
  • the base portion in particular the base frame, rigid, in particular idealized rigid, executed.
  • the deformation portion in particular the cheek part or the cheek parts, be designed to be elastic and can advantageously be made of a resilient sheet metal.
  • a resilient sheet metal is to be understood as meaning a sheet having spring-elastic properties, such as, for example, a reversible deformability, in particular by applying a corresponding restoring force, that is, for example, a sheet metal made of spring steel or a comparable material.
  • An advantage of the invention is thus that the modules can be inserted individually and with very little effort in the support frame and removed again from it, which facilitates in particular the manual assembly.
  • the resilient properties of the deformation section, in particular the cheek part or the cheek parts namely, allow modules to insert individually or with very little effort or remove.
  • the stiffness of the base frame can provide the necessary mechanical stability when holding the inserted modules.
  • the holding frame for electrical safety a protective ground, in particular a PE protective ground of a metallic connector housing, in which the holding frame is inserted, allows.
  • This shield can be a protection against interference from the outside. But it can also be a shield to prevent or reduce an interference emission, so protect the environment against interference fields of the connector. In other words, not only are the signals transmitted by the modules protected from external interference fields, but environmental protection from disturbances also takes place, which is caused by current flowing through the modules.
  • a particularly great additional advantage of the use of one or more metallic materials is further that the support frame is on the one hand particularly resistant to heat and on the other hand, nevertheless, for example by the use of resilient metal sheet, at the sites required for a sufficiently high elasticity to the modules individually and insert with little effort into the module frame and remove again. Therefore, it is particularly advantageous if the support frame has resilient elastic sheet metal at suitable places, because it is at least as much elasticity much more heat resistant than one out mechanical view of otherwise functionally comparable plastic frame. Associated modules can be made compact in their design accordingly, so that they can continue to be made of plastic and still are relatively resistant to heat.
  • the holding frame has a plurality of different regions, for example a first and a second region, which have a different elasticity relative to one another, because then it can selectively apply a higher resistance moment in the region of the highest bending stress.
  • the first area may correspond to the basic section.
  • the second region may correspond to the deformation section.
  • These different regions may for example be formed of different materials and thus preferably have different material properties, in particular different elasticity modules.
  • the second region in particular the deformation section, can thereby have a higher elasticity than the first region, which corresponds in particular to the base section.
  • the first region can have a greater rigidity than the second region, in other words.
  • the first region may be rigid and the second region may be resilient.
