Definitions

  • the invention relates to a connector having at least one arranged in a housing spring or blade contact element according to the preamble of claim 1.
  • Such a connector is for example from the DE 20 2012 006 976 U1 out.
  • the spring or blade contact elements are arranged at a right angle to the single-core, insulated cables. Such an angular arrangement of the plug contacts relative to the single-core, insulated cable is widely used.
  • the invention has the object of providing a connector of the type described above in such a way that a simple and secure contact of single-core, insulated cables, in particular a plurality of single-core, insulated cables, is possible, the cables to be arranged in the connector should be that in the direction of insertion, so not at an angle to the direction of insertion, run.
  • the connector according to the invention with at least one arranged in a housing spring or blade contact element which is electrically connected to at least one insulation displacement contact, the at least one single-core, insulated cable contacted and fixed, has at least one in the insertion direction of the spring or blade contact element relative to the spring - Or knife contact element arranged rotated by 90 ° Insulation displacement contact, which makes it possible to contact the at least one single-core, insulated cable extending in the insertion direction by a insulation displacement contact and fix.
  • the basic idea of the invention is to rotate the at least one insulation displacement contact by 90 ° in such a connector and to arrange it in line with the spring or blade contact elements in such a way that a somewhat "linear" arrangement of the spring or blade contact elements and the single-core, isolated Cable is reached.
  • the arrangement also allows a simple assembly of several single-core, insulated cable in a connector, as will be explained in more detail below.
  • the invention provides that on the side facing away from the spring or blade contact element with this integrally connected to a carrier is arranged, on which the at least one insulation displacement contact is formed rotated by 90 °.
  • This one-piece design of the spring or blade contact element and the insulation displacement contact not only facilitate the production, but are also advantageous in terms of electrical conductivity.
  • the invention provides that on the at least one spring or blade contact element facing away from the at least one insulation displacement contact on the support at least one clamping element is formed, which clamps in the contacted and fixed state of at least one single-core, insulated cable whose isolation to form a strain relief ,
  • the clamping element is thus part of the electrically conductive spring or blade contact element and the insulation displacement contact and also arranged on the carrier. In this way, arranged in the housing clamping elements can be omitted. Rather, the clamping element is produced together with the spring or blade contact, the insulation displacement contact and the carrier.
  • an advantageous embodiment provides that the spring or blade contact element, the carrier, the insulation displacement contact arranged on the carrier and the clamping element arranged on the carrier form a single stamped part.
  • the spring or blade contact element, the carrier, the insulation displacement contact arranged on the support and the clamping element formed on the support are preferably produced in a stamping step. Subsequently, the insulation displacement contact is rotated by 90 °. Such a method of preparation can be automated in large numbers.
  • the invention provides that the housing comprises two housing parts which can be slid into one another and latched to one another with simultaneous contacting of the at least one single-core, insulated cable. In this way, the contacting and fixing of the single-core, insulated cable is carried out simultaneously for mounting the two housing parts together.
  • the at least one spring or blade contact element together with the at least one 90 ° turned insulation displacement contact and the following at least one clamping element in the first housing part are arranged and that the at least one to be contacted and fixing single-core, insulated cable in a cable guide in the second housing part is arranged such that it comes to rest before the telescoping of the two housing parts on the at least one insulation displacement contact.
  • the two housing parts preferably have mutually adapted latching connection elements, in particular latching hooks. This allows a very fast, even automatic production by simply clipping the two housing parts together while simultaneously contacting and fixing the at least one single-core, insulated cable.
  • the connector for contacting and fixing of several juxtaposed in the housing one-wire, insulated cables.
  • a plurality of arranged in the housing spring or blade contact elements are arranged side by side with their associated insulation displacement contacts and clamping elements.
  • a designated as a whole with 10 connector has a housing which consists essentially of two parts, a first part 100 and a second part 200 which are latched to each other.
  • first part 100 spring contact elements 410 are arranged in the first part 100 .
  • housing 100 In the housing 100 are openings 110 provided by the known per se manner to the spring contact elements 410 adapted blade contact elements (not shown) for forming an electrically conductive connection of the contact elements are guided.
  • a carrier 405 Integrally connected to the spring contact elements 410 is a carrier 405 (see also FIG Fig. 3 ). Formed on the carrier 405 is an insulation displacement contact 430 which is perpendicular to a plug-in direction R (FIG. Fig. 3 ) is arranged to contact and fix a single core, insulated cable 304. Also integral with the carrier 405 is a clamping element 440 connected, which, viewed in the insertion direction R, is arranged on the side of the insulation displacement contact 430 facing away from the spring contact element 410.
  • the second housing part 200 at least one opening 210 is provided, which is adapted to the single-core, insulated cable 304 and serves to receive the single-core, insulated cable 304.
  • the single-core, insulated cable 304 is arranged in the second housing part 200 such that it comes to lie above the insulation displacement contacts 430 before mounting the second housing part 200 on the first housing part 100. This condition before assembly is in the Fig. 1 and 3 shown.
  • the assembly is now carried out so that the second housing part 200 in a designated M direction (see Fig. 3 . Fig. 4 ) is pushed in the direction of the first housing part 100, wherein the insulation displacement contact 430 contacted in a known manner, the single-core, insulated cable 304 and fixed.
  • the insulation displacement contact 430 cuts through the insulation jacket of the single-core, insulated cable 304, in part also its core, whereby it penetrates into the strands of the single-core, insulated cable and thus an electrically conductive connection is formed.
  • the cable 304 is also pressed onto the clamping element 440 and the clamping element 440 clamps the insulating jacket of the cable 304.
  • the clamping element 440 not only serves to fix the cable 304, but also to relieve strain. This condition after assembly is in the Fig. 2 and 4 shown.
  • the two housing parts have mutually adapted latching hooks 140, 240, which engage in one another and thus hold the second housing part 200 on the first housing part 100.
  • the advantage of this assembly is that it is also automated in a simple way.
  • the connector allows the assembly of several juxtaposed single-core, insulated cables 301, 302, 303, 304 in the manner described above, wherein these cables are arranged in the direction of insertion R, so have a colinear arrangement to the spring contact elements 410.
  • the single-core, insulated cables 301, 302, 303, 304 are aligned with the insulation displacement contacts 410, so to speak.
  • insulation displacement contacts 410 instead of the insulation displacement contacts 410 also blade contacts (not shown) may be provided.
  • blade contacts instead of the insulation displacement contacts 410 also blade contacts (not shown) may be provided.
  • the spring contact element 410, the carrier 405, the insulation displacement contact 430 and the clamping element 440 can be made of a single stamped part, preferably with a single punching operation. After the punching process, only the insulation displacement contact 430 has to be turned by 90 °. Such a production is also possible automatically.
  • the clamping element 440 is formed as a metal part, which is integrally connected to the spring contact element 410, the insulation displacement contact 430 on the support 405. This increases the tensile strength of the one-core or one-core, insulated cable in the connector housing essential. The cable is no longer held in this case by a clamping element arranged on the housing, but by a clamping element, which is connected to the spring contact element 410. In this way, clamping elements can be omitted in the housing, which also makes the production of the housing much easier, while increasing the stability.
