Definitions

  • the invention relates to an electrical coupling part with a connected electrical line according to claim 1.
  • a coupling part according to the preamble of claim 1 goes from EP 2 099 099 B1 forth.
  • “Coupling steep” in the sense of the invention can be a plug with plug pins or a socket with socket contacts.
  • Contact parts are therefore either the plug pins or the socket contacts.
  • the contact parts which are usually very simple for cost reasons, for example made of sheet metal, are generally equipped with a locking element, by means of which they are secured against axial displacement after insertion into the contact carrier. With such contact carriers, measures must be taken to protect the connection points of contact parts and conductors of a connected line from moisture in particular.
  • From the EP 1 821 376 A1 shows an electrical coupling part with connected electrical line, which has a contact carrier with through holes for receiving electrical contact parts.
  • the end of the contact carrier is surrounded by a protective body made of insulating material, which is provided by injection molding and protrudes above the line.
  • Conductors of an electrical line are connected to the contact parts.
  • the conductors protrude at one end of the contact carrier from the end face there.
  • EP 2 110 892 A1 describes a plug-in connector device consisting of two parts, a housing unit with sockets and a housing unit with pin contacts. It has sealing units, each consisting of a chamber sealing element and a cable sealing element.
  • the cable sealing elements have recesses for carrying cables attached to contacts. The contacts are inserted into contact channels with connected cables.
  • the sealing elements arranged in the housing units seal the housing units as a whole when they are plugged together. Together with parts attached to the housing units, they simultaneously perform a sealing function and a holding function.
  • the WO 2007/131539 A1 describes an electrical connector with a housing made of insulating material, in which a number of electrical contacts are arranged, which are connected to electrical conductors of a ribbon cable.
  • the end of the ribbon cable extends into the housing of the connector.
  • the area of the housing from which the ribbon cable protrudes is sealed in the assembly position by gel-like sealing elements, which are pressed against a projection of the housing and against the ribbon cable by two pivoting closure elements attached to the housing.
  • a moisture-proof electrical connector which has a plastic housing with a number of cavities in which electrical contacts connected to electrical conductors are arranged. Rubber rings are arranged on the conductors within the housing as sealing elements and are held in position by clamping bodies. These two-part clamp bodies are around those from the housing protruding ends of the ladder. They are flexibly connected at one end and they have recesses for receiving the ladder.
  • the US 5,618,203 A describes an electrical connector consisting of two pluggable parts. In one part there are passages for receiving electrical conductors. On this part of the connector two holding elements are also pivotally attached, which bear against the conductors in the assembly position.
  • From the 10 2011 055 215 A1 is a method for producing a connector, which has a plastic molded contact carrier with contact chambers for receiving a contact partner.
  • the publication describes the interaction of two sealing elements which surround at least one cable in the finished connector which is led out of the connector. When the two sealing elements are in the assembled state, they enclose the cable in such a way that a desired longitudinal water tightness is achieved.
  • the WO 2007/131534 A1 describes different embodiments of a shielded electrical connector which is attached to cables equipped with contacts.
  • the respective connector is sealed at its end into which the cables are inserted by a sealing element.
  • a sealing element is arranged in a chamber and it has radially extending ribs in a central bore, which penetrate deeply into a cable if necessary. The sealing element thereby serves at the same time to fix the respective cable in the axial direction.
  • a number of sealing elements corresponding to the number of cables to be inserted into the m housing is present in an m housing. They press with two ribs running in the radial direction into the respective cable, which is thus fixed in the axial direction.
  • all sealing elements are compressed by two parts of a closure element in its closed position, which improves the sealing effect of the sealing elements.
  • an electrical connector which has a housing made, for example, of metal.
  • a seal holder for example made of plastic, in which three parallel channels are arranged.
  • a cable is attached to each of the channels when the connector is in use.
  • a rib is also arranged in each channel and a spring element integrated in the seal holder is provided for each channel. In the final locking position of the connector, the spring elements each press a cable against one of the ribs.
  • Within the channels of the seal holder there is also a sealing element surrounding the respective cable in each channel.
  • EP 2 099 099 B1 describes an electrical coupling part with an connected electrical line, which has a contact carrier made of mechanically stable insulating material, in which at least two electrical contact parts are arranged insulated from one another, which are connected to electrical conductors of the at least two-wire line and provided with a jacket made of insulating material.
  • a sealing element with a clamp seat is attached to each wire, which is arranged in the mounting position in a through hole of the contact carrier, which is sealed by the sealing element.
  • the contact carrier has an extension pointing in the direction of the line, around which a clamping body consisting of two half-shells made of mechanically stable insulating material is attached, which is fixed in the mounting position on the extension of the contact carrier.
  • the invention has for its object to simplify the coupling part described above.
  • the dimensions of this coupling part are essentially determined by the dimensions of the contact carrier.
  • the clamping elements are attached to the end face of the contact carrier within its dimensions so that they do not protrude beyond the profile of the contact carrier.
  • the overall dimensions of the contact carrier are kept as small as possible because no parts protrude beyond its profile.
  • the sealing of the sealing passage holes of the contact carrier against moisture is ensured only by the dielectric elements, which are not loaded in the radial direction and in particular not at an angle neither during assembly of the coupling part nor during operation of an arrangement in which the coupling part is installed. This is achieved by the clamping elements, which are so tight against the wires that they are immovably fixed in the radial direction. A separate protective body produced by injection molding is therefore not required for sealing against moisture.
  • clamping elements lie within the dimensions of the end face of the contact carrier, they can be attached close to the wires protruding from the through holes. As a result, they can also have small dimensions and only need to be pivoted a short distance to reach their mounting position.
  • the clamping elements are connected to one another in the assembly position, in particular locked together.
  • the clamping elements only need to be shaped in such a way that they abut the wires in the assembly position in such a way that a radial displacement of the same is excluded. They advantageously have recesses in which the wires are accommodated in the assembly position and the clear dimensions of which are adapted to the dimensions of the wires.
  • the coupling part according to the invention is described below in connection with a three-wire electrical line. If configured appropriately, it could also be used for cables with two or more than three wires.
  • a contact carrier made of mechanically stable insulating material, such as polyamide or polybutylene terephthalate, which has three separate through holes 2, 3 and 4 which run parallel to one another.
  • electrical contact parts 5, 6 and 7 are attached, in which they can be, for example, plug pins or socket contacts.
  • the contact parts 5, 6 and 7 are fixed in the through holes 2, 3 and 4 in a known technique without strain.
  • an electrical line 11 are electrically connected.
  • annular sealing elements 12, 13 and 14 are attached within the through holes 2, 3 and 4, which on the one hand tightly enclose the wires 8, 9 and 10 and on the other hand close to the wall of the respective through hole 2 or 3 or 4 concerns.
  • they consist of polyethylene.
  • clamping elements 16 and 17 On a face 15 of the contact carrier 1 according to Fig. 2 two clamping elements 16 and 17 attached, namely on two opposite sides of the through holes 2, 3 and 4.
  • the clamping elements 16 and 17 are in their entirety Length and width rotatably attached to the end face 15 of the contact carrier 1. They can be swiveled towards one another.
  • Fig. 3 protrude from the end face 15 of the contact carrier 1, the three wires 8, 9 and 10 after they are connected to the contact parts 5, 6 and 7.
  • the clamping elements 16 and 17 are still in their open position.
  • clamping elements 16 and 17, as in FIG Fig. 4 for the clamping element 16, recesses 18, 19 and 20 are shown, the clear dimensions of which correspond to the dimensions of the wires 8, 9 and 10. They have an approximately semicircular contour.
  • the coupling part 1 is installed, for example, at the end of an electrical line as follows: The wires 8, 9 and 10 are stripped at their ends so that their conductors are exposed. The sealing elements 12, 13 and 14 are then plugged onto the wires 8, 9 and 10 in their insulated areas. Then the conductors of the wires 8, 9 and 10 are electrically connected to the contact parts 5, 6 and 7. The contact parts 5, 6 and 7 are then inserted into the Duichgangslöcher 2, 3 and 4 of the contact carrier 1 until the sealing elements 12, 13 and 14 are in the through holes 2, 3 and 4 and tight or close to them Walls. The contact parts 5, 6 and 7 are fixed in their end position in the through holes 2, 3 and 4 with strain relief.
  • clamping elements 16 and 17 are pivoted towards one another until they rest firmly on the wires 8, 9 and 10. They then surround them all around so that the wires 8, 9 and 10 cannot move in the radial direction, and also not when they are pulled in the oblique direction.
  • the clamping elements 16 and 17 are connected to one another in the assembly position, in particular to each other.
