Subsequently, the individual wire ends are folded by about 90 ° to the outside and pressed into the formed in the wire guide part 12 recesses 31, which serve as restraint locks for the wire ends (see. Fig. 2 ).
- the shielding 22 of the cable 2 is automatically contacted by the ends of the inner spring arms 16, so that no additional steps are required for contacting the shielding 22 of the cable 2.
- the splice member 6 When screwing the union nut 4 on the external thread 8 of the metallic terminal body 9, the splice member 6 is inserted into the connector body 9, wherein the arranged in the connector body 9 insulation displacement plugs 10 in the core guide member 12 formed, dive open at the front incisions 5, whereby a reliable contact of the Incisions 5 crossing, outwardly folded wire ends is ensured by the insulation displacement terminals 10.

Sie ist in der Mess-, Steuer- und Regelungstechnik ein entscheidender Faktor für die Verfügbarkeit industrieller Anlagen. Beim Aufbau von störungsarmen System werden dabei zunehmend geschirmte Kabel verwendet, um kapazitive und induktive elektromagnetische Einkopplungen in das Kabel zu verhindern. Dabei ist das eine Ende des geschirmten Kabels häufig über einen Steckverbinder bzw. eine Kabelanschlusseinrichtung mit einem elektrischen Gerät, beispielsweise einer Sensor-Aktor-Box, und das andere Ende mit dem Versorgungsanschluss, beispielsweise über eine Reihenklemme, verbunden. Die Kontaktierung der Schirmung des Kabels erfolgt auf der Geräteseite zumeist über die metallische Hülse des Steckverbinders bzw. des Anschlusskörpers, über die die Schirmung mit dem metallischen Gehäuse des elektrischen Geräts verbunden wird.In industrial process and measurement technology, high immunity to interference is often required. It is a decisive factor in the availability of industrial plants in measurement and control technology. In the construction of low-noise system increasingly shielded cables are used to prevent capacitive and inductive electromagnetic couplings in the cable. In this case, one end of the shielded cable is often connected via a plug connector or a cable connection device to an electrical device, for example a sensor-actuator box, and the other end to the supply connection, for example via a terminal block. The contacting of the shield of the cable is done on the side of the device mostly via the metallic sleeve of the connector or the Connecting body, via which the shield is connected to the metallic housing of the electrical device.

Aus der Praxis sind verschiedene Möglichkeiten bekannt, wie die elektrisch leitende Verbindung zwischen der Schirmung des Kabels und der metallischen Steckerhülse eines Steckverbinders, die dann als Schirmungshülse fungiert, hergestellt werden kann. Dabei kann die Schirmung entweder direkt oder über ein zusätzliches Schirmungselement mit der metallischen Steckerhülse verbunden werden. Aus der Praxis sind Steckverbinder bekannt, bei denen die Schirmung, die häufig als Schirmgeflecht ausgebildet ist, direkt mit der Steckerhülse verlötet wird. Diese Art der Verbindung der Schirmung mit der Steckerhülse erfordert jedoch einen relativ hohen Montageaufwand, wobei darüber hinaus der Lötprozess aufgrund der relativ hohen Masse der Steckerhülse relativ schwierig ist.From practice, various ways are known as the electrically conductive connection between the shield of the cable and the metallic plug sleeve of a connector, which then acts as Schirmungshülse, can be produced. In this case, the shield can be connected either directly or via an additional shielding element with the metallic plug sleeve. From practice connectors are known in which the shield, which is often designed as a shield braid, is soldered directly to the connector sleeve. However, this type of connection of the shield with the plug sleeve requires a relatively high installation cost, and moreover, the soldering process is relatively difficult due to the relatively high mass of the plug sleeve.
Bei einer alternativen Ausgestaltung der direkten Verbindung der Schirmung mit der Steckerhülse wird ein Teil des Kabelmantels am freien Ende des Kabels entfernt und die Schirmung über den angrenzenden Kabelmantel zurückgeschoben, bevor das so vorbereitete Kabel in die Steckerhülse eingeführt wird. Anschließend wird die Steckerhülse in dem Bereich, in dem die Schirmung über den Kabelmantel zurückgeschoben worden ist, soweit deformiert, dass die Schirmung zwischen dem Kabelmantel und der Steckerhülse eingeklemmt wird. Eine derartige direkte Verbindung der Schirmung des Kabels mit einer metallischen Steckerhülse ist bei der zuvor beschriebenen Kabelanschlusseinrichtung bzw. dem beschriebenen Kabelanschlussbauteil nicht ohne Weiteres möglich, weil das Kabel innerhalb des Kabelanschlussbauteils von dem aus isolierendem Material bestehenden Spleißteil umgeben ist.In an alternative embodiment of the direct connection of the shield to the connector sleeve, a portion of the cable jacket is removed at the free end of the cable and the shield is pushed back over the adjacent cable jacket before the cable thus prepared is inserted into the connector sleeve. Subsequently, the plug sleeve in the region in which the shield has been pushed back over the cable sheath, deformed so far that the shield between the cable sheath and the connector sleeve is clamped. Such a direct connection of the shield of the cable with a metallic plug sleeve is not without in the previously described cable connection device or the described cable connection component Further possible, because the cable is surrounded within the cable connection component of the existing of insulating material splice part.

Der Erfindung liegt daher die Aufgabe zugrunde, ein Kabelanschlussbauteil bzw. eine Kabelanschlusseinrichtung und eine Kabelverbindungsrichtung zur Verfügung zu stellen, die ein einfaches Anschließen eines geschirmten mehradrigen Kabels ermöglicht. Auf eine besondere Vorbereitung der Schirmung des Kabels soll dabei möglichst verzichtet werden.The invention is therefore based on the object to provide a cable connection component or a cable connection device and a cable connection direction, which is a simple connection of a shielded multicore Cable allows. On a special preparation of the shielding of the cable should be omitted as possible.
Diese Aufgabe bei dem eingangs beschriebenen Kabelanschlussbauteil mit den Merkmalen des Patentanspruchs 1 dadurch gelöst, dass das Spleißteil ein Kabelaufnahmeteil und ein Adernführungsteil aufweist, wobei das Kabelaufnahmeteil auf der dem Adernführungsteil zugewandten Seite mehrere Rastarme und das Adernführungsteil auf der dem Kabelaufnahmeteil zugewandten Seite mehrere zu den Rastarmen korrespondierende, nach innen ragende Rasthaken aufweist. Außerdem weist das Schirmungselement einen ringförmigen Mittelabschnitt, mehrere vom Mittelabschnitt in Richtung der dem Adernführungsteil zugewandten Seite sich erstreckende innere Federarme und mehrere vom Mittelabschnitt in Richtung der dem Adernführungsteil abgewandten Seite sich erstreckende äußere Federarme auf. Die inneren Federarme sind dabei derart in Richtung der Längsachse des Kabelanschlussbauteils nach innen abgebogen, dass ihre Enden die Schirmung eines angeschlossenen Kabels kontaktieren, während die äußeren Federarme derart von der Längsachse des Kabelanschlussbauteils weg nach außen abgebogen sind, dass sich die äußeren Federarme zwischen dem Kabelaufnahmeteil und dem Adernführungsteil erstrecken, wobei die Enden der äußeren Federarme aus dem Spleißteil herausragen.This object is achieved in the cable connection component described above with the features of

Dadurch, dass das Spleißteil zweiteilig ausgebildet ist, nämlich aus einem Kabelaufnahmeteil und einem Adernführungsteil besteht, ist auf einfache Art und Weise die Möglichkeit geschaffen worden, die im Inneren des Spleißteils angeordnete Schirmung des Kabels über das Schirmungselement am Außenumfang des Spleißteils zu kontaktieren. Dadurch, dass das Schirmungselement mehrere äußere Federarme aufweist, erfolgt eine Anbindung der Schirmung an den metallischen Anschlusskörper an mehreren, über den Umfang verteilten Punkten, was für eine gute Schirmanbindung wünschenswert ist. Aufgrund der federnden Eigenschaft der inneren Federarme erfolgt dabei die Kontaktierung der Schirmung des Kabels automatisch beim Einführen des Kabels in das Kabelanschlussbauteil bzw. in das Kabelaufnahmeteil des Spleißteils, so dass eine besondere, zusätzliche Vorbereitung der Schirmung nicht erforderlich ist. Der Anschluss des geschirmten Kabels erfolgt vielmehr so, wie dies der Monteur vom Anschluss eines ungeschirmten Kabels an ein aus dem Stand der Technik bekanntes Kabelanschlussbauteil kennt.Characterized in that the splice part is formed in two parts, namely consists of a cable receiving part and a wire guide part, the possibility has been created in a simple manner to contact the arranged inside the splice part shielding of the cable via the shielding element on the outer circumference of the splice. Due to the fact that the shielding element has a plurality of outer spring arms, a connection of the shield to the metallic connector body at several distributed over the circumference points, which is desirable for a good shield connection. Due to the resilient property of the inner spring arms, the contacting of the shielding of the cable takes place automatically upon insertion of the cable into the cable connection component or into the cable receiving part of the splice part, so that a special, additional preparation of the shield is not required. The connection of the shielded cable is rather as the installer knows from the connection of an unshielded cable to a known from the prior art cable connection component.
Gemäß einer bevorzugten Ausgestaltung des Kabelanschlussbauteils sind die Rastarme des Kabelaufnahmeteils konzentrisch zur Längsachse des Kabelanschlussbauteils angeordnet, wobei im montierten Zustand von Kabelaufnahmeteil und Adernführungsteil ein dem Kabelanschlussbauteil zugewandter hülsenförmiger Bereich des Adernführungsteils die Rastarme umgibt. Der hülsenförmige Bereich des Adernführungsteils wird somit zur Verbindung mit dem Kabelaufnahmeteil einfach auf die Rastarme aufgesteckt, wobei die Rastarme mit den im Inneren des hülsenförmigen Bereichs angeordneten, korrespondierenden Rasthaken verrasten, so dass das Kabelaufnahmeteil und das Adernführungsteil sicher miteinander verbunden sind. Dadurch, dass der hülsenförmige Bereich des Adernführungsteils die Rastarme des Kabelaufnahmeteils im montierten Zustand umgibt, wird der Verbindungsbereich zwischen dem Kabelaufnahmeteil und dem Adernführungsteil mechanisch geschützt und darüber hinaus die Abdichtung der innerhalb der Rastarme des Kabelaufnahmeteils verlaufenden Adern des Kabels verbessert.According to a preferred embodiment of the cable connection component, the latching arms of the cable receiving part are arranged concentrically to the longitudinal axis of the cable connection component, wherein in the assembled state of cable receiving part and wire guide part facing the cable connection component sleeve-shaped portion of the wire guide part surrounding the latching arms. The sleeve-shaped region of the wire guide part is thus simply plugged onto the latching arms for connection to the cable receiving part, wherein the latching arms engage with the corresponding latching hooks arranged in the interior of the sleeve-shaped region, so that the cable receiving part and the wire guide part are securely connected to one another. Characterized in that the sleeve-shaped portion of the wire guide part surrounds the latching arms of the cable receiving part in the assembled state, the connection area between the cable receiving part and the wire guide part is mechanically protected and beyond the sealing of extending within the latching arms of the cable receiving part wires of the cable.
Wie zuvor ausgeführt worden ist, ist durch die zweiteilige Ausbildung des Spleißteils die Möglichkeit geschaffen worden, über das Schirmungselement die im Inneren des Spleißteils angeordnete Schirmung des anzuschließenden Kabels außerhalb des Spleißteils, nämlich durch den metallischen Anschlusskörper zu kontaktieren. Hierzu ist das Schirmungselement zwischen dem Kabelaufnahmeteil und dem Adernführungsteil angeordnet, wobei gemäß einer bevorzugten Ausgestaltung der Erfindung der ringförmige Mittelabschnitt des Schirmungselements, der die inneren Federarme mit den äußeren Federarmen verbindet, von den Rastarmen des Kabelaufnahmeteils umgeben ist, d.h. der ringförmige Mittelabschnitt ist innerhalb des Kabelaufnahmeteils angeordnet. Die äußeren Federarme des Schirmungselements erstrecken sich dabei durch die einzelnen Freiräume zwischen den Rastarmen des Kabelaufnahmeteils. Der ringförmige Mittelabschnitt und die Rastarme des Kabelaufnahmeteils sind dadurch beim Verrasten von Kabelaufnahmeteil und Adernführungsteil durch die Rastarme des Kabelaufnahmeteils vor Beschädigungen geschützt. Vorzugsweise sind dazu die inneren Federarme des Schirmungselements korrespondierend zu den Rastarmen des Kabelaufnahmeteils angeordnet, d. h. die inneren Federarme und die Rastarme weisen im montierten Zustand dieselbe Winkelposition auf.As has been stated above, the two-part design of the splice part has made it possible to contact via the shielding element the shielding of the cable to be connected outside the splicing part, namely the metallic connecting body, arranged in the interior of the splicing part. For this purpose, the shielding element between the cable receiving part and the wire guide part is arranged, wherein according to a preferred embodiment of the invention, the annular central portion of the Schirmungselements, which connects the inner spring arms with the outer spring arms, is surrounded by the latching arms of the cable receiving part, ie the annular central portion is disposed within the cable receiving portion. The outer spring arms of the Schirmungselements extend through the individual free spaces between the latching arms of the cable receiving part. The annular central portion and the latching arms of the cable receiving part are thereby protected during the locking of cable receiving part and wire guide part by the locking arms of the cable receiving part from damage. For this purpose, the inner spring arms of the shielding element are preferably arranged corresponding to the latching arms of the cable receiving part, ie the inner spring arms and the latching arms have the same angular position in the mounted state.
Gemäß einer weiteren vorteilhaften Ausgestaltung des erfindungsgemäßen Kabelanschlussbauteils sind außerdem die inneren Federarme und die äußeren Federarme gleichmäßig verteilt am Umfang des Mittelabschnitts angeordnet. Hierdurch wird sowohl eine gute elektrische Anbindung der Schirmung als auch eine einfache Herstellung des Schirmungselements, bei dem es sich vorzugsweise um ein Stanz-Biegeteil handelt, ermöglicht. Wenn, wie zuvor beschrieben, die inneren Federelemente korrespondierend zu den Rastarmen angeordnet sind, so sind die äußeren Federarme versetzt zu den inneren Federarmen angeordnet, da sich die äußeren Federarme durch die Freiräume zwischen den Rastarmen hindurch erstrecken.According to a further advantageous embodiment of the cable connection component according to the invention also the inner spring arms and the outer spring arms are arranged evenly distributed on the circumference of the central portion. As a result, both a good electrical connection of the shield and a simple production of the shielding element, which is preferably a stamped and bent part, made possible. If, as described above, the inner spring elements are arranged corresponding to the latching arms, the outer spring arms are arranged offset to the inner spring arms, since the outer spring arms extend through the spaces between the latching arms.
Neben dem zuvor beschriebenen Kabelanschlussbauteil betrifft die Erfindung auch noch eine Kabelanschlusseinrichtung zum elektrisch leitenden Anschließen eines geschirmten mehradrigen Kabels an ein elektrisches Gerät. Bei dem elektrischen Gerät kann es sich beispielsweise um eine Sensor-/Aktor-Box handeln. Unabhängig davon ist hier der Begriff "elektrisches Gerät" jedoch ganz allgemein zu verstehen, d. h. unter dem Begriff "elektrisches Gerät" sollen auch andere elektrische Bauteile, Einrichtungen und Vorrichtungen fallen.In addition to the cable connection component described above, the invention also relates to a cable connection device for the electrically conductive connection of a shielded multicore cable to an electrical device. The electrical device may be, for example, a sensor / actuator box. Regardless of this, however, the term "electrical device" is to be understood here in a general way, that is to say, "electrical device". H. The term "electrical device" is intended to include other electrical components, devices and devices.
Eine derartige Kabelanschlusseinrichtung weist neben dem zuvor beschriebenen Kabelanschlussbauteil noch ein Geräteanschlussbauteil auf, das einen metallischen Anschlusskörper mit einem zum Innengewinde der Überwurfmutter korrespondierenden Außengewinde aufweist. Außerdem sind in dem Anschlusskörper mehrere Schneidklemmen und mit den einzelnen Schneidklemmen verbundene Anschlusselemente vorgesehen, wobei die Schneidklemmen auf der dem Kabelanschlussbauteil zugewandten Seite und die Anschlusselemente auf der dem Kabelanschlussbauteil abgewandten Seite angeordnet sind. Häufig handelt es sich hierbei um einstückig ausgebildete Metallteile, die auf einer Seite als Schneidklemmen und auf der anderen Seite als Anschlusselemente ausgebildet sind. Die Anschlusselemente können vorzugsweise als Stift- oder Buchsenkontakte ausgebildet sein.Such a cable connection device has, in addition to the previously described cable connection component, a device connection component which has a metallic connection body with an external thread corresponding to the internal thread of the union nut. In addition, a plurality of insulation displacement terminals and connection elements connected to the individual insulation displacement terminals are provided in the connection body, wherein the insulation displacement terminals are arranged on the side facing the cable connection component side and the connection elements on the side facing away from the cable connection component side. Often these are integrally formed metal parts which are formed on one side as insulation displacement terminals and on the other side as connection elements. The connection elements may preferably be designed as pin or socket contacts.
Darüber hinaus betrifft die vorliegende Erfindung auch eine Kabelverbindungseinrichtung zum elektrisch leitenden Verbinden von zwei geschirmten mehradrigen Kabeln. Eine derartige Kabelverbindungseinrichtung, die häufig auch als Leitungsverbinder bezeichnet wird, weist neben dem erfindungsgemäßen Kabelanschlussbauteil noch ein Kabelverbindungsbauteil auf. Das Kabelverbindungsbauteil weist einen Anschlusskörper mit einem zum Innengewinde der Überwurfmutter korrespondierenden Außengewinde und mehrere im Anschlusskörper angeordnete Schneidklemmen und Anschlusselemente auf. Ebenso wie bei dem Geräteanschlussbauteil sind auch bei dem Kabelverbindungsbauteil die Schneidklemmen auf der dem Kabelanschlussbauteil zugewandten Seite und die Anschlusselemente auf der gegenüberliegenden Seite angeordnet, wobei die Schneidklemmen und die Anschlusselemente wiederum elektrische leitend miteinander verbunden sind. Für die Anschlusselemente des Kabelverbindungsbauteils, die zum Anschließen der Adern des zweiten Kabels dienen, können grundsätzlich die dem Fachmann bekannten Anschlusstechniken, beispielsweise Schraubanschluss oder Federkraftklemmanschluss, verwendet werden. Vorzugsweise sind jedoch auch die Anschlusselemente des Kabelverbindungsbauteils als Schneidklemmen ausgebildet, so dass in dem Anschlusskörper des Kabelverbindungsbauteils mehrere Metallteile angeordnet sind, die auf beiden Seiten als Schneidklemmen ausgebildet sind. Der Anschlusskörper weist dann ein zweites Außengewinde auf, auf dem die Überwurfmutter eines zweiten Kabelanschlussbauteils aufgeschraubt und damit ein Spleißteil in den Anschlusskörper eingeschoben werden kann.Moreover, the present invention also relates to a cable connection device for the electrically conductive connection of two shielded multicore cables. Such a cable connecting device, which is often referred to as a cable connector, in addition to the cable connection component according to the invention still has a cable connection component. The cable connection component has a connection body with an external thread corresponding to the internal thread of the union nut and a plurality of insulation displacement terminals and connection elements arranged in the connection body. As in the case of the device connection component, the insulation displacement terminals on the side facing the cable connection component and the connection elements on the opposite side are also arranged in the cable connection component, wherein the insulation displacement terminals and the connection elements are in turn electrically conductively connected to one another. For the connection elements of the cable connection component, which serve to connect the wires of the second cable, basically the connection techniques known to the person skilled in the art, for example screw connection or spring terminal connection, can be used. Preferably, however, the connection elements of the cable connection component are formed as insulation displacement terminals, so that in the connection body of the cable connection component a plurality of metal parts are arranged, which are formed on both sides as insulation displacement terminals. The connection body then has a second external thread, onto which the union nut of a second cable connection component can be screwed and thus a splice part can be inserted into the connection body.
Die Montage des Spleißteils mit dem Schirmungselement bzw. des Schirmungselements in dem Spleißteil erfolgt erfindungsgemäß gemäß den Merkmalen des Patentanspruchs 9. Das Verfahren weist dabei folgende wesentliche Schritte auf:
- Aufweiten der Rastarme des Kabelaufnahmeteils und Einführen des Schirmungselements zwischen die Rastarme des Kabelaufnahmeteils, wobei sich die äußeren Federarme des Schirmungselements durch die Freiräume zwischen den Rastarmen erstrecken;
- Aufstecken des Adernführungsteils auf das Kabelaufnahmeteil, so dass die Rastarme am Kabelaufnahmeteil mit den Rasthaken am Adernführungsteil verrasten.
- Widening the latching arms of the cable receiving part and inserting the shielding element between the latching arms of the cable receiving part, wherein the outer spring arms of the Schirmungselements extend through the free spaces between the latching arms;
- Attach the wire guide part on the cable receiving part, so that the latching arms engage the cable receiving part with the latching hooks on the wire guide part.
Bei dem erfindungsgemäßen Verfahren erfolgt dabei das Aufweiten der Rastarme des Kabelaufnahmeteils vorzugsweise mit Hilfe eines Domes, der von der dem Adernführungsteil abgewandten Seite in das Kabelaufnahmeteil eingesteckt wird. Ist das Schirmungselement zwischen die Rastarme des Kabelaufnahmeteils eingeführt, so wird der Dorn aus dem Kabelaufnahmeteil herausgezogen, so dass die Rastarme zurückfedern und dadurch das Schirmungselement in seiner Endposition radial fixieren. Durch das Aufstecken des Adernführungsteils auf das Kabelaufnahmeteil erfolgt sowohl die rastende Verbindung zwischen dem Adernführungsteil und dem Kabelaufnahmeteil, als auch die axiale Fixierung des Schirmungselement, da sich die freien Enden der äußeren Federarme zwischen der dem Kabelaufnahmeteil zugewandten Stirnseite des Adernführungsteils und einem entsprechend ausgebildeten Anschlagbund am Kabelaufnahmeteil nach außen, d. h. aus dem Spleißteil heraus, erstrecken.In the method according to the invention, the expansion of the latching arms of the cable receiving part is preferably carried out by means of a dome, which is inserted from the side facing away from the wire guide part in the cable receiving part. If the shielding element is inserted between the latching arms of the cable receiving part, then the mandrel is pulled out of the cable receiving part, so that the latching arms spring back and thereby radially fix the shielding element in its end position. By attaching the wire guide part on the cable receiving part takes place both the latching connection between the wire guide part and the cable receiving part, as well as the axial fixation of the Schirmungselement, as the free ends of the outer spring arms between the cable receiving part facing end side of the wire guide part and a trained stop collar on Cable receiving part to the outside, d. H. out of the splice part, extend.
