Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a connector for an electrical connection.
  • Plug contacts can be joined concealed, with screw connections require accessibility for the screwing. However, plug contacts often do not meet the necessary
  • Vibration requirements e.g. for control units for gearbox and engine mounting in a vehicle. It should also be noted that the plug contact systems can not be built arbitrarily large. In the vehicle area, the insertion forces for manual installation should be less than 75 N.
  • the base material of the spring contacts of plug-in contact systems has a poor electrical and thermal conductivity due to the required spring properties.
  • the contact surfaces are usually punctiform or linear and thus limited in size to a few square millimeters. Because of the poor electrical and thermal conductivity and the small contact surfaces results in an electrical and thermal resistance, the strong
  • the limit temperature for contact systems is, for example, 180 ° C.
  • the present invention shows a plug-in connection in which a contact pin over a large area over almost the entire circumference with a collet comes into contact (first and second embodiment), or a
  • Screw contact provided so that can be joined concealed, which requires no accessibility for a tool.
  • the connector comprises (according to the first and second embodiments) one on the first line
  • the connector is closed by the contact pin is inserted into the collet.
  • the collet has for this purpose a recess into which the contact pin is inserted.
  • the geometric shape of the recess corresponds to the geometric shape of the contact pin.
  • the outer diameter of the contact pin corresponds to the inner diameter of the recess. This ensures that the contact pin with his
  • Scope rests in the recess.
  • the collet has a conical collet outer surface.
  • this collet outer surface at least one slot is formed.
  • This slot is also referred to as an axial slot extending in the radial direction completely from the recess through the wall surrounding the recess to the outside.
  • the at least one slot divides the region of the collet surrounding the recess into at least one clamping jaw.
  • n slots form n jaws, where n> 1.
  • the connector also includes a clamping ring with conical
  • the conical clamping ring inner surface is located on the conical
  • Collet and clamping ring is due to the conical surfaces, the at least one clamping jaw braced against the contact pin or pressed. This keeps the contact pin within the recess of the
  • the contact pin and the collet are designed so that upon insertion of the contact pin into the recess, the collet is pressed into the clamping ring.
  • the clamping ring is thus fixed and the collet moves simultaneously with the insertion of the contact pin.
  • a receptacle preferably made of plastic, is provided.
  • the clamping ring is fixed in this receptacle.
  • the collet is movable in the clamping ring.
  • the contact pin can be at the bottom of the collet and thereby press the collet.
  • the contact pin can engage with a shoulder at the upper edge or at a shoulder of the collet and thereby the collet in the direction of

  • Mandrel outer surface is located on the conical clamping bolt inner surface, wherein the at least one clamping jaw can be tensioned or pressed outwards against the contact sleeve by a relative movement between mandrel and clamping bolt.
  • the mandrel is arranged in the contact sleeve. This ensures that with the nesting of contact sleeve and clamping bolt simultaneously the mandrel is inserted into the conical clamping bolt inner surface and thus at the same time the at least one clamping jaw is pressed to the outside.
  • Mandrel and the contact sleeve can together form a one-piece manufactured component. Alternatively, two separate components can be used. For the contact pin or the contact sleeve and the collet or the
  • Clamping bolt is advantageously used copper, brass, bronze, or aluminum.
