  • Such holding frames are required in order to accommodate several mutually similar and/or different modules.
  • These modules can be insulating bodies, for example, which are provided as contact carriers for electronic and electrical and possibly also for optical and/or pneumatic contacts. It is of particular importance that the holding frame enables a prescribed protective earthing according to the connector standard EN61984, for example for inserting the holding frame equipped with modules into metallic connector housings.
  • DE 2736079 A1 refers to the attachment of terminal blocks or connection modules made of rigid insulating material by snapping and locking in place on a metal support rail, which may be unsymmetrical and which may be formed by a U-shaped profile with two inwardly projecting lugs that are equal in height can be offset from each other and from the central part of the U-shaped profile.

  • EP 0 183 587 A1 discloses a multipole electrical connector element consisting of a hollow housing of substantially parallelepiped flat shape, internally having at least one cavity for receiving a substantially parallelepiped insulating block, preferably rounded at the corners, the block or blocks being provided with a plurality of through bearings or cells for insertion of contacts consisting of pins or sockets, and the connector element also comprising locking means cooperating with the locking organs of a complementary connector element, each block of insulating material being clamped in the associated cavity of the housing by two elastic spring clips arranged between the block and the cavity of the housing in the region of the end faces separated by the longitudinal sides of the cavity, that each of the spring clips has a substantially U-shaped cross-section, the web of the spring clip being provided with means for attachment to the shorter side wall of the cavity of the housing and is provided with elastic means for bearing against the shorter side wall of the insulating block, and wherein each of the legs of the spring clip is designed to rest elastically against part of the height of the associated longer side wall
  • a connector according to US 2013/0217268 A1 includes an insulated body with a slot for receiving a connector module and a housing that completely encloses the insulated body.
  • An arm has at least two extensions each adapted to two oppositely formed side walls of the insulated body and each provided with a projection formed at a distal end of the at least two extensions.
  • At least two through holes are designed to be formed in each of the two side walls of the insulated body to receive the protrusions therein.
  • U.S. 4,032,209 discloses a support rail having spaced ledges each holding a plurality of clips, the clips being provided in pairs at each station.
  • a connector assembly may be attached to one or more of these stations, and an electrical component, such as a relay, may be plugged into the connector assembly such that the component and connector assembly are held together by engagement of the clips.
  • U.S. 5,352,133 discloses a fiber optic electrical connector assembly having a dielectric jacket with a receptacle for receiving a plug in a position for mating with a mating connector device.
  • a metal latch is affixed to the dielectric shell and is engageable with a complementary latch on the plug to automatically latch the plug in the receptacle in response to positioning of the plug therein in a mating direction.
  • An overload protector overlies the metal latch in spaced relationship to ensure that the metal latch only moves into and out of engagement with the complementary latch to a limited extent so as to prevent overloading of the metal latch.
  • a rib and slot engagement is provided between the plug and the shell to prevent rotation of the connector about an axis perpendicular to the mating direction of the plug to provide further overload protection for the metal lock.
  • DE 298 12 500 U1 discloses a modular plug connector with a support frame, which has longitudinal frame strips and contains a plurality of modules, which are each supported on a first longitudinal edge of the frame strips, with independent locking elements being provided which can be snapped or clamped onto the modules and these can be attached to one of the first Block longitudinal edge opposite second longitudinal edge.
  • EP 0 860 906 B1 discloses a holding frame for holding connector modules and for installation in connector housings or for screwing to wall surfaces, with the connector modules being inserted into the holding frame and holding means on the connector modules interacting with recesses provided on opposite wall parts (side parts) of the holding frame, with the recesses acting as openings closed on all sides are formed in the side parts of the holding frame, the holding frame consisting of two halves which are hinged to one another, the separation of the holding frame being provided transversely to the side parts of the frame, and joints being arranged in the fastening ends of the holding frame in such a way that when Screwing the holding frame onto a mounting surface, the frame parts align in such a way that the side parts of the holding frame are aligned at right angles to the mounting surface and the connector modules have a positive connection with the holding frame via the mounting means.
  • such holding frames are usually manufactured in a die-casting process, in particular in a zinc die-casting process.
  • the pamphlet EP 2 581 991 A1 discloses a holding frame for plug-in connector modules, which has two frame halves which can be latched together by linear displacement of one frame half relative to the other frame half in a sliding direction, with latching means corresponding to one another being provided on the frame halves, which latch the two frame halves together during linear displacement effect in two different detent positions in which the frame halves are spaced at different distances from each other.
  • the pamphlet EP 1 801 927 B1 discloses a support frame made from a one-piece plastic injection molding.
  • the holding frame is designed as a peripheral collar and has a plurality of wall segments separated by slots on its plug-in side. Two wall segments lying opposite each other form an insertion area for a plug module, the wall segments having window-like openings which serve to accommodate projections formed on the narrow sides of the modules.
  • a guide groove is provided in each of the wall segments. The guide groove is formed above the openings by means of a window web which is offset outwards and has an insertion bevel on the inside.
  • the plug-in modules have latching arms which are formed on the narrow sides and act in the direction of the cable connections and latch below the lateral collar wall, so that two independent latching means fix the connector modules in the holding frame.
  • a disadvantage of this prior art is that it is a holding frame made of plastic, which is not generically suitable for protective earthing and is therefore not suitable for installation in metal connector housings.
  • the use of metallic connector housings requires and is such protective earthing Both because of their mechanical robustness, their temperature resistance and because of their electrically shielding properties are necessary in many cases and therefore desired by the customer.
  • the production of the above-mentioned plastic holding frames in the injection molding process is at least difficult and can only be realized with great effort.
  • the heat resistance of such a plastic holding frame is not always sufficient for special applications, for example in the vicinity of a blast furnace. After all, the plastic material and the shape, in particular the strength of the holding frame, are primarily determined at the relevant points by the requirements for flexibility and not by those for temperature resistance.
  • WO 2014/202050 A1 a holding frame for accommodating a plurality of connector modules.
  • the connector modules are received in recesses of the holder frame by means of holding means.
  • the recesses of the holding frame are made in opposite frame parts.
  • the holding frame according to WO 2014/202050 A1 enables spring-loaded accommodation and storage of the connector modules in the holding frame. Tolerances of the various connector modules and their contact means can be compensated in this way. A safe and complete plugging of connector modules of a modular connector with its mating connector can be guaranteed.
  • WO 2014/202050 A1 was published after the priority date of the present application and is therefore only prior art under Art. 54(3) EPC and not relevant to the question of inventive step.
  • the object of the invention is to provide a design for a holding frame which, on the one hand, has good heat resistance and high mechanical robustness and, in particular, when installed in a metallic connector housing, has a corresponding protective earthing, in particular a PE ("Protection Earth”), and which, on the other hand, also ensures convenient operability, especially when replacing individual modules.
  • PE Protection Earth
  • this object is achieved with a holding frame having the features of claim 1 .
  • the object is achieved with a method by the features according to claim 3.
  • a holding frame according to the invention can be used in the field of heavy industrial connectors and can consist at least partially of an electrically conductive material.
  • protective grounding is made possible, which can be implemented, for example, by the holding frame having a PE contact or at least being equipped with such a PE contact.
  • the holding frame has a base section and a deformation section, which are formed at least partially from different materials.
  • the base section is used to fix a recorded module in one plane.
  • the deformation section can assume an insertion state and a holding state, the insertion state allowing at least one module to be inserted in a direction transverse to the plane into the holding frame, with a received module being fixed in the holding state.
  • the holding frame has a base frame as the base section and at least one, preferably two, cheek parts as the deformation section.
  • the base frame is then formed from a different material than the cheek parts and thus advantageously has less elasticity and therefore greater rigidity than the cheek parts.
  • the cheek parts can be formed from a material which, according to its stress/strain diagram, is more elastic, ie has a lower modulus of elasticity, than the material from which the base section, in particular the base frame, is formed.
  • the material of the base section can be stiffer than the material from which the deformation section is formed.
  • the material of the base frame can have a modulus of elasticity that is greater than the modulus of elasticity of the material from which the cheek parts are formed.
  • the amount of the modulus of elasticity is the greater, the more resistance a material opposes to its elastic deformation.
  • the material from which the deformation portion is formed may have a greater elastic range than the material from which the base portion is formed, according to its stress/strain diagram.
  • the base section in particular the base frame, can be rigid, in particular rigid when viewed in an idealized manner.
  • the cheek part or the cheek parts are designed to be spring-elastic and is/are advantageously made from a spring-elastic sheet metal.
  • a spring-elastic sheet metal is to be understood as meaning a sheet metal that has spring-elastic properties, such as reversible deformability, in particular when a corresponding restoring force is applied, for example a sheet metal that is made of spring steel or a comparable material.
  • One advantage of the invention is that the modules can be inserted into and removed from the holding frame individually and with very little effort, which in particular facilitates manual assembly.
  • the resilient properties of the deformation section, in particular of the cheek part or cheek parts allow modules to be inserted or removed individually with very little effort.
  • the rigidity of the base frame can ensure the necessary mechanical stability when holding the inserted modules.
  • the use of one or more metallic materials ensures high temperature resistance compared to plastic, for example, and also particularly high mechanical robustness of the holding frame.
  • a further advantage of using one or more metal materials is that the holding frame enables protective earthing, in particular PE protective earthing, of a metal connector housing, into which the holding frame is inserted, for electrical safety. As an additional advantage, this also ensures that the signals transmitted through the connector are shielded.
  • This shielding can provide protection against external interference fields. However, it can also be a matter of shielding to avoid or reduce the emission of interference, ie to protect the environment against interference fields from the connector. In other words, not only are the signals transmitted by the modules protected from external interference fields, but the environment is also protected from interference caused by a current flow running through the modules.
  • a particularly great additional advantage of using one or more metallic materials is that the holding frame is on the one hand particularly heat-resistant and on the other hand still has a sufficiently high elasticity at the required points, for example through the use of spring-elastic sheet metal, to hold the modules individually and can be inserted into the module frame and removed again with little effort. It is therefore of particularly great advantage if the holding frame has spring-elastic sheet metal at suitable points, because this makes it much more heat-resistant than a plastic frame that is otherwise functionally comparable from a mechanical point of view, while being at least as elastic.
  • Associated modules can be designed to be correspondingly compact in their design, so that they can continue to be made of plastic and are still relatively heat-resistant.
  • the holding frame has several different areas, for example a first and a second area, which have different elasticity from one another, because it can then specifically apply a higher section modulus in the area of the highest bending stress.
  • the first area corresponds to the basic section.
  • the second area corresponds to the deformation section.
  • These different areas are formed from different materials and can therefore preferably have different material properties, in particular different moduli of elasticity.
  • the deformation section has greater elasticity than the base section.
  • the first area therefore has greater rigidity than the second area.
  • the first area can be rigid and the second area can be resilient.
  • such elasticity or rigidity can be achieved on the one hand by the material used in each case and/or on the other hand it can also be achieved by the geometric shape of these areas, in particular the base section and the deformation section.
  • the first region in particular the base section, can be formed from a rigid material, for example from a zinc alloy or from an aluminum alloy or from a copper alloy.
  • the second area, in particular the deformation section can be formed from a spring-elastic material and thus consist, for example, of a spring-elastic sheet steel.
  • the first area, in particular the base section can be produced in a casting process, for example in a zinc die-casting or aluminum die-casting process, or also by milling from a copper alloy, for example.
  • the first area, in particular the base section can preferably be the peripheral base frame.
  • the base frame can thus in particular be a die-cast zinc part.
  • the base frame can have a substantially rectangular cross-section, ie it has two parallel, opposite end faces and perpendicular thereto two parallel, opposite side parts, the two end faces being shorter than the two side parts. Both the end faces and the side parts can have an essentially rectangular shape.
  • the deformation section is formed from the at least one, preferably the two, separate cheek parts, of which each cheek part preferably consists of a spring-elastic sheet metal part.

  • the preferably two cheek parts can be punched out of the same stamped sheet metal.
  • Each cheek part can be designed to be essentially flat and preferably have a rectangular basic shape. Thus, it has two opposite long edges, namely a first and a second edge, and two opposite short edges, namely a third and a fourth edge, perpendicular thereto.
  • the cheek piece has in particular regular slots beginning at its first edge and extending preferably at right angles thereto in the direction of the second edge into the cheek piece, preferably rectilinear slots, whereby free-standing tabs are formed in the cheek piece.
  • a locking window can be arranged as a locking element in each of these tabs. These snap-in windows are intended to accommodate snap-in lugs of inserted modules in order to snap the modules into the holding frame.
  • each cheek part can have a plurality of fastening elements, in particular fastening recesses in a preferably round shape, for fastening to the base frame.
  • Each of the two cheek parts can advantageously be fastened to the base frame on the outer side of one of the two side parts, so that two spring-elastic straps of the two cheek parts are symmetrically opposite one another. Furthermore, these tabs may be bent slightly outwards towards their end, i.e. away from the base frame and thus away from each other, in order to facilitate the insertion of a module.
  • the base frame can have fastening means, for example round fastening pins, on the corresponding side part, preferably on both side parts. These fastening means engage in the fastening recesses of the associated cheek part and thus hold the cheek parts by latching and by a form-fitting connection on the base frame.

  • the two latching lugs of a module can differ from one another, for example in their shape and/or their size, in particular their length, and the tabs on both sides of the holding frame can have corresponding windows for this purpose, which also differ from one another and in their size and/or their shape match one of the locking lugs.
  • This has the advantage that it fixes the orientation of each module in the holding frame.
  • the latching windows and the latching lugs can be used as coding means, in particular as polarization means, for orienting the modules in the holding frame.
  • the lugs of the holding frame are slightly bent away from the holding frame in a free-standing end area, which simplifies the insertion of the modules. Inserting a module into the holding frame is then particularly user-friendly.
  • a module is first inserted between two lugs of a holding frame and then slides with its two end faces and in particular with the latching lugs formed thereon along the end regions of the lugs that are bent away from one another.
  • the two tabs bend apart briefly until the respective latching lugs are received by the associated latching window of the respective tab and thus latch therein.
  • the tabs preferably spring back into their starting position in the respective locking window. In this way, the modules can be locked individually in the holding frame.
  • the module is firmly held in the preferably rigid base frame.
  • the two associated tabs only have to be bent away from each other again.
  • the respective module can then be removed individually from the holding frame, while the other modules remain locked. In this way, a firm hold of the module in the holding frame is ensured with a comparatively small actuating force, which is particularly advantageous for the operability.
  • the modules are already held in the holding frame with sufficient holding force due to the aforementioned construction and accordingly require no further locking means, for example locking arms, apart from their locking lugs, because this considerably simplifies their design and thus their production costs and at the same time ensures a compact design and thus also for a high heat resistance of the modules and thus of the entire connector.
  • these two cheek parts are of the same type, i.e. despite the two-part design of the holding frame, only cheek parts of one type have to be manufactured, which further reduces the manufacturing effort.
  • the two cheek parts differ in the size and/or the shape of their locking windows. This has the advantage that the orientation of each module, which accordingly also has two different latching lugs, is thereby fixed. In other words, the locking windows and the locking lugs can thus serve as coding means for orienting the modules due to their shape.
  • the holding frame can be equipped with a corresponding PE module, which, for example via an electrically conductive earthing clip, creates an electrical contact between a connected Grounding cable and the at least partially electrically conductive, in particular metallic, holding frame manufactures. This allows the holding frame to be equipped with a PE contact.
