Definitions

  • the invention relates to a potential distributor, in particular for use in vehicles.
  • potential distributors which are integrally formed and having a predetermined number of slots on which similar or different connectors can be plugged.
  • the connectors are arranged at the end of electrical lines, wherein the lines may be, for example, a plurality of identical or different harnesses, which run from the same or often from different directions to the potential distributor.
  • the one-piece potential distributor is electrically isolated or electrically connected to the vehicle body at a suitable location in the vehicle and serves to lay the cables, which are connected via their connectors to the potential distributor, to the same electrical potential, for example ground. This is basically known in vehicle construction.
  • Such a potential distributor has the disadvantage that it has only a predetermined number of slots, since it is integrally formed. This means that the number of slots must vary, although the equipment, especially the optional equipment, of the vehicle is different from other equipment. This in turn means that one Potential distributor with a predetermined number of slots either depending on the equipment is not sufficient or too many slots for plug connections are available. To get around this problem, it might be thought of having potential distributors containing different numbers of slots. However, this has the disadvantage that a large number of different potential distributors must be manufactured, stored, transported and mounted. In addition, it must always be considered which equipment the vehicle has, so that the corresponding variant of the potential distributor is kept ready with the required number of slots.
  • a generic potential distributor is for example from the US 2002/137401 A1 or the JP H08 306451 A known.
  • the DE 295 02 779 U1 discloses a potential distribution device for electrical systems with at least two integral, plate-shaped metal moldings, which are stacked spaced and in particular consist of a sheet metal stamping with potential distributing terminals, wherein the one-piece metal moldings with potential distribution terminals stackable spaced together and at each of the metal moldings two hermaphroditic than Plug part and formed as a connector part connecting parts are present, which are joined together in each case with a hermaphroditic other part of another Metal molding, forming a potential bridge, forming a connector in which the spaced plug-connected metal moldings are stably supported.
  • the invention is therefore based on the object to improve a potential distributor over known potential distributors, in particular by the fact that a higher flexibility is realized in the use of such potential distributors.
  • the invention relates to a potential distributor, in which a plurality of connectors, which are arranged at one end of a respective line, both mechanically combined and electrically contacted together.
  • the potential distributor according to the invention has a plurality of juxtaposed housing made of an electrically conductive material, wherein in each case a connector is inserted and the plurality of juxtaposed housing are electrically contacted with each other to the connectors, which are arranged at one end of an electrical line on to bring the same electrical potential.
  • the housings made of the electrically conductive material can be manufactured individually, wherein they are then arranged in the appropriate number next to each other and not only electrically contacted with each other, but also a mechanical connection is realized with each other. In this way, a potential distributor can be realized which has the required number of plug-in slots for plug-in connectors, so that a potential distributor is always provided which has the required number of slots.
  • all housings are identical except for a housing arranged at one end of the potential distributor.
  • This has the advantage that a very high number of identical or identical housing can be manufactured and assembled to form the potential distributor. Only one housing, which is arranged at one end of the potential distributor, is deviating from the other housings and thus forms the termination of the potential distributor. Preferably, this arranged at the end of the potential distributor housing is formed in mirror image to the other housings.
  • At least one housing and at least one mirror-inverted housing form the potential distributor.
  • one group of housings may have a first shape and be assembled with a mirror image of another group of housings provided and assembled, the two groups then being joined together to form the potential distributor.
  • the number of housings in each group is the same, but may be different.
  • the housing has a contact for making electrical contact with a further housing (neighboring housing).
  • the electrical contacting is realized by the simple juxtaposition of housings side by side.
  • a contact is provided on the housing, with which the electrical contact is made to the other housing.
  • the contact of the one housing can cooperate with a further contact of the further housing (adjacent housing), wherein it is also conceivable that the contact of the one housing comes only to rest on the other housing.
  • the contact of the one housing and the further housing or a further contact of this further housing are designed such that they rest against each other, for example under bias, are latched together or the like.
  • the housing has a tab for receiving the connector.
  • a housing has a receptacle, the tab, to the connector, a socket contact to record.
  • the inner contour of the housing to the outer contour of the connector with or without a plug-in tab, thereby realizing a non-positive and / or positive mechanical connection between the inner contour of the housing and the outer contour of the connector.
  • the electrical contact between housing and connector takes place.
  • the connector is either not at all or only partially disposed in the interior of the housing, wherein the connector or at least partially surround the outer contour of the housing to realize the mechanical fixing and the electrical contact.
  • the housings For the manufacture of the housings, regardless of their shape, it can be considered to produce them in a stamped and / or punched roll method. With such a manufacturing method can be realized in a simple manner very quickly and inexpensively the desired shape of the housing.
  • the housing no matter what form, whether with or without contact for electrical contact with another housing or whether with or without a tab for receiving the connector of a single part.
  • the at least two housings are arranged in an outer housing.
  • This outer housing consists of an electrically non-conductive material, preferably plastic.
  • This outer housing can be made separately from the potential distributor and the Housing be arranged in a corresponding number in the outer housing. It can also be thought to surround the potential distributor after fixing the at least two housings to each other with the outer housing, for example by an injection molding process.
  • the potential distributor is characterized in that it has in each case a corresponding number in a housing, wherein in the housing a connector is used.
  • the connector for example, plugging the connector on a plug-in tab present in the housing
  • the connector is guided by the internal geometry of the housing and fixed in its final target position.
  • the respective connector is at the end of an electrical line in a suitable manner (for example, crimp) connected to a line core.
  • At least two housings are mechanically strung together so that a one-piece potential distributor, which consists of several housings, is created.
  • a one-piece potential distributor which consists of several housings.
  • an electrical contacting is also carried out, for which purpose the housing in each case has a contact in the direction of the housing arranged next to it. About this contact, the electrical contacting of the respective adjacent housing to each other.
  • a housing 1 is shown on the left and in the middle, which can accommodate a connector 2, which is arranged at one end of an electrical line 3.
  • the housing 1 shown is still shown without connectors 2 in the left and middle illustration.
  • a contact 4 preferably in an end region of the housing 1, which points in the direction of a (not shown) adjacent housing, so that in an arrangement of two housings 1 side by side, an electrical contact takes place.
  • the contact 4 not only an electrical contact, but also a mechanical connection can take place.
  • a potential distributor in which case three housings 1 have been arranged next to one another in this case. It is also conceivable less than three, so two, or more than three, so four or more housing 1 side by side to order.
  • connectors 2 which are arranged at the end of an electric line 3, are inserted into the housing 1.
  • the housing 1 is designed so that the connector 2 is guided during insertion into the housing 1 by the internal geometry.
  • the connector 2 can be fixed in the housing 1. This is done for example by force and / or positive connection, such as by means of a latching connection, soldering, gluing or the like.
  • the structure which is shown in the right-hand illustration of the drawing, can still be surrounded by an outer housing made of an electrically non-conductive material, such as a plastic.
  • the potential distributor thus makes it possible, by means of the plurality of juxtaposed housings, for a plug connector to be inserted therein (plugged into a plug-in clip 5, for example), at the same electrical potential (for example, 3) located at the end of the respective plug-in connector Mass).
