Description
Die Erfindung bezieht sich auf ein Verfahren zum elektrisch leitenden Anschließen eines aus elektrisch leitendem Material bestehenden Kontaktelements an einen Aluminium enthaltenden elektrischen Litzenleiter, der eine Vielzahl von zu einer Einheit zusammengefaßten Drähten aufweist, mit welchem um den Litzenleiter unter Freilassung seiner Stirnseite im Bereich seines Endes ein einteilig mit dem Kontaktelement verbundenes Befestigungsteil mechanisch fest herumgeformt wird (
Aluminium enthaltende Leiter werden als Ersatz für Kupferleiter immer öfter eingesetzt, beispielsweise in der Automobil- und Flugzeugtechnik. Die darin verwendeten, Aluminium enthaltenden Leiter bestehen entweder aus Aluminium oder aus einer Aluminiumlegierung. Im Folgenden wird der Einfachheit halber nur noch Aluminium erwähnt. Ein wesentlicher Vorteil von derartigen elektrischen Leitern ist ihr gegenüber Kupfer geringeres Gewicht. Die geringere elektrische Leitfähigkeit des Aluminiums gegenüber Kupfer ist für die meisten Anwendungen hingegen von untergeordneter Bedeutung. Ein Nachteil dieser Leiter ist die Tatsache, dass Aluminium mit Sauerstoff reagiert, wodurch eine elektrisch isolierende Oxidschicht gebildet wird, welche den Leiter und insbesondere jeden der Drähte eines entsprechenden Litzenleiters umgibt.Aluminum-containing conductors are being used more and more frequently as a replacement for copper conductors, for example in the automotive and aerospace industries. The aluminum-containing conductors used therein are made of either aluminum or an aluminum alloy. In the following, for the sake of simplicity, only aluminum is mentioned. A significant advantage of such electrical conductors is compared to copper lighter weight. The lower electrical conductivity of the aluminum compared to copper, however, is of minor importance for most applications. A disadvantage of these conductors is the fact that aluminum reacts with oxygen, forming an electrically insulating oxide layer surrounding the conductor and in particular each of the wires of a corresponding stranded conductor.
In der
Aus der eingangs erwähnten
Der Erfindung liegt die Aufgabe zugrunde, das eingangs geschilderte Verfahren so zu gestalten, dass das Kontaktelement mit vermindertem Aufwand am elektrischen Leiter angebracht werden kann.The invention has for its object to make the initially described method so that the contact element can be attached to the electrical conductor with reduced effort.
Diese Aufgabe wird gemäß der Erfindung dadurch gelöst,
- dass ein aus federndem, elektrisch leitfähigem Material bestehendes, etwa streifenförmiges Kontaktelement verwendet wird, das in seinem Verlauf eine unter einem zwischen 80° und 89° liegenden Winkel schräg von demselben abstehende, unter Federspannung stehende Lasche hat, wobei die Schräge der Lasche in Richtung des Befestigungsteils des Kontaktelements weist,
- dass vor der Befestigung des Kontaktelements am Litzenleiter zunächst an der Stirnseite desselben eine elektrisch leitende Kontaktfläche erzeugt wird, die elektrisch leitend mit dem Aluminium des Litzenleiters verbunden wird, und
- dass danach das Kontaktelement mit zur Achsrichtung des Litzenleiters parallelem Verlauf mittels des Befestigungsteils in einer solchen Lage fest und unverrückbar mit dem Litzenleiter verbunden wird, dass die vom Kontaktelement abstehende Lasche aufgrund ihrer Federspannung elektrisch leitend und mechanisch fest an die Kontaktfläche angedrückt wird.
- in that a strip-like contact element consisting of resilient, electrically conductive material is used which, in its course, has an angle at an angle lying between 80 ° and 89 ° and is spring-loaded, the slope of the flap being in the direction of Fastening part of the contact element has,
- that before the attachment of the contact element on the stranded conductor first on the end side of the same an electrically conductive contact surface is generated, which is electrically conductively connected to the aluminum of the stranded conductor, and
- that thereafter the contact element with the axial direction of the stranded conductor parallel course by means of the fastening part in such a position is firmly and immovably connected to the stranded conductor, that the projecting tab of the contact element is electrically conductive and mechanically pressed firmly against the contact surface due to their spring tension.
Federndes elektrisch leitfähiges Material ist mit Vorteil ein elektrisch gut leitendes Metall, wie beispielsweise Edelstahl. Ein entsprechendes Kontaktelement kann zumindest auf der zur Anlage am Litzenleiter bestimmten Seite mit einem elektrisch gut leitenden Metall, wie insbesondere Kupfer, beschichtet sein. Das elektrisch leitfähige Material kann aber auch ein Kunststoff sein, wie beispielsweise Polyamid, der durch Zugabe von metallischen Partikeln und/oder Ruß elektrisch leitfähig gemacht ist. Ein aus Kunststoff bestehendes Kontaktelement kann auch mit einem elektrisch gut leitenden Material, wie insbesondere Kupfer, beschichtet sein, und zwar zumindest auf seiner Oberfläche, die zur Anlage am Litzenleiter bestimmt ist.Sprung electrically conductive material is advantageously an electrically good conductive metal, such as stainless steel. A corresponding contact element can be coated, at least on the side intended for contact with the stranded conductor, with a metal which is highly conductive, in particular copper. The electrically conductive material may also be a plastic, such as polyamide, which is rendered electrically conductive by the addition of metallic particles and / or carbon black. An existing plastic contact element may also be coated with a highly electrically conductive material, in particular copper, at least on its surface, which is intended to rest on the stranded conductor.
Zum Anbringen des Kontaktelements am Ende des Litzenleiters - im Folgenden nur noch als "Leiter" bezeichnet - wird an dessen Stirnseite zunächst eine elektrische Kontaktfläche erzeugt, die insgesamt mit dem Aluminium des Leiters, also insbesondere mit dem Aluminium der Drähte desselben, verbunden ist. Dafür sind unterschiedliche Verfahren bekannt, die nahezu ausschließlich mit Wärmezufuhr arbeiten, um das Aluminium des Leiters aufzuschmelzen. Dieser Verfahrensschritt ist der einzige, mit welchem dem Leiter Wärme zugeführt wird. Er dient zur Vorbereitung des Leiterendes zur elektrisch wirksamen Befestigung des Kontaktelements an demselben. Ein entsprechendes Verfahren ist beispielsweise in der
An dem mit der Kontaktfläche versehenen Leiter wird das Kontaktelement rein mechanisch fest und unverrückbar festgelegt und elektrisch leitend mit der Kontaktfläche des Leiters verbunden. Das etwa bzw. im Wesentlichen streifenförmige Kontaktelement besteht insgesamt aus federndem Metall. Als Metall kann mit Vorteil Edelstahl eingesetzt werden. Das Kontaktelement kann insgesamt mit einem elektrisch gut leitenden Material beschichtet sein, beispielsweise mit Kupfer. In bevorzugter Ausführungsform sind insbesondere die Flächen des Kontaktelements mit dem gut leitenden Material beschichtet, die im Montagezustand am Leiter bzw. an seiner Kontaktfläche anliegen.At the conductor provided with the contact surface, the contact element is fixed purely mechanically fixed and immovable and electrically conductively connected to the contact surface of the conductor. The approximately or substantially strip-shaped contact element consists entirely of resilient metal. As metal can be used with advantage stainless steel. The contact element can be combined with a be coated electrically good conductive material, for example with copper. In a preferred embodiment, in particular the surfaces of the contact element are coated with the highly conductive material, which rest in the assembled state on the conductor or on its contact surface.
Die im Verlauf des Kontaktelements unter einem Winkel, der zwischen 80° und 89° liegt, also der kleiner als 90° ist, schräg von demselben abstehende Lasche besteht aus dem gleichen federnden Material wie das Kontaktelement. In bevorzugter Ausführungsform liegt der Winkel, unter dem die Lasche vom Kontaktelement absteht, zwischen 84° und 87°. Dabei ist wesentlich, dass die Schräge der Lasche in Richtung des Befestigungsteils des Kontaktelements weist. Beim Anlegen des Kontaktelements an den Leiter wird dasselbe in Richtung von der Stirnseite desselben fortweisend mit Druck bewegt, so dass die Lasche entgegen ihrer Federwirkung bzw. Vorspannung an die Kontaktfläche gedrückt wird. Die Lasche ist mit Vorteil durch Stanzen teilweise aus dem Kontaktelement herausgeschnitten und anschließend um eine im Kontaktelement verbleibende Kante in ihre Position abgebogen. In dieser Position steht sie - wie bereits erwähnt - unter Federspannung, so dass sie bei einer Druckbelastung und einer damit verbundenen Auslenkung aus ihrer Position ständig in diese zurück gelangen will.In the course of the contact element at an angle which is between 80 ° and 89 °, that is less than 90 °, obliquely projecting from the same tab consists of the same resilient material as the contact element. In a preferred embodiment, the angle at which the tab protrudes from the contact element is between 84 ° and 87 °. It is essential that the slope of the tab has in the direction of the fastening part of the contact element. When the contact element is applied to the conductor, the same is forcibly moved with pressure in the direction of the end face thereof, so that the tab is pressed against the contact surface against its spring action or pretension. The tab is advantageously cut out by punching partially out of the contact element and then bent around an edge remaining in the contact element in their position. In this position, it is - as already mentioned - under spring tension, so they want to come back at a pressure load and an associated deflection from its position constantly in this.
Zur Befestigung des Kontaktelements am Leiter wird dasselbe parallel zum Leiter angeordnet, und zwar derart, dass es mit seinem Ende am Leiter anliegt, an dem sich das Befestigungsteil befindet. In dieser Position liegt die Lasche noch relativ lose an der Kontaktfläche des Leiters an. Das Kontaktelement wird dann in Achsrichtung des Leiters verschoben, und zwar in der von der Stirnseite des Leiters wegweisenden Richtung, wodurch die Lasche durch den Leiter entgegen ihrer Federkraft gebogen und dadurch mit erhöhter Kraft an die Kontaktfläche des Leiters angedrückt wird. In dieser Position, die dabei stabil gehalten wird, wird das Befestigungsteil des Kontaktelements fest und unverrückbar um den Leiter herumgeformt. Diese Endposition des Kontaktelements wird dadurch auf Dauer beibehalten und die Lasche wird auf Dauer gegen die Kontaktfläche des Leiters gedrückt. Das Befestigungsteil kann beispielsweise und mit Vorteil durch Crimpen am Leiter festgelegt werden.To attach the contact element to the conductor, the same is arranged parallel to the conductor, in such a way that it lies with its end against the conductor on which the fastening part is located. In this position, the tab is still relatively loose at the contact surface of the conductor. The contact element is then displaced in the axial direction of the conductor, in the direction away from the front side of the conductor direction, whereby the tab is bent by the conductor against its spring force and thereby pressed with increased force to the contact surface of the conductor. In this position, which is kept stable, the fastening part of the contact element is firmly and immovably formed around the conductor. This end position of the contact element is thereby maintained in the long term and the tab is pressed permanently against the contact surface of the conductor. The fastening part can be fixed, for example, and advantageously by crimping on the conductor.
Das Kontaktelement kann auch ein zweites Befestigungsteil aufweisen, das neben dem ersten Befestigungsteil angebracht ist. Das zweite Befestigungsteil kann um einen Bereich des Leiters herumgelegt und dort befestigt werden, der mit einer Isolierung versehen ist.The contact element may also have a second attachment part attached adjacent to the first attachment part. The second attachment member may be wrapped around and secured to a portion of the conductor which is provided with insulation.
Das Verfahren nach der Erfindung wird anhand der Zeichnungen in Form von Ausführungsbeispielen erläutert.The method according to the invention will be explained with reference to the drawings in the form of embodiments.

Zur Fertigstellung eines einsatzbereiten Kontaktelements 5 wird die Lasche 7 um die Kante 8 gebogen, so dass sie unter einem Winkel α vom Kontaktelement 5 absteht, der zwischen 80° und 89° liegt. Der Winkel α liegt in bevorzugter Ausführungsform zwischen 84° und 87°. Die Lasche 7 steht in der entsprechenden Schrägstellung aufgrund ihres federnden Materials unter Federspannung. Die Schräge der Lasche 7 weist in Richtung des Befestigungsteils 6 des Kontaktelements 5. Die Größe des Winkels α hängt auch von dem federnden Material ab, das für das Kontaktelement 5 verwendet wird.To complete a ready-to-

Zur Montage des Kontaktelements 5 am Leiter 1 wird beispielsweise wie folgt vorgegangen:
Das Kontaktelement 5 wird entsprechendFig. 6 mit parallelem Verlauf zum Leiter 1 an denselben angelegt.Die Lasche 7 liegt dann ander Kontaktfläche 4 an, welche sich an der Stirnseite des Leiters 1 befindet. Der schräge Verlauf der Lasche 7 ist inFig. 6 etwas übertrieben dargestellt, um die entsprechende Ausgangsposition des Kontaktelements 5 deutlich zu zeigen. Danachwird das Kontaktelement 5 in Achsrichtung des Leiters 1 unter weiterer Anlage an demselben mit Druck verschoben, und zwar in Richtung des Pfeiles P von derKontaktfläche 4 fortweisend. Dadurch wird dieLasche 7 entgegen ihrer Federspannung um dieKante 8 gebogen, so dass sie mit erhöhter Kraft andie Kontaktfläche 4 angedrückt wird. In dieser Position wirddas Befestigungsteil 6 um den Leiter 1 so herumgeformt, dassdas Kontaktelement 5 fest und unverrückbar am Leiter 1 befestigt ist, so wie es inFig. 7 dargestellt ist. Das kann beispielsweise durch Crimpen erfolgen. Das gegebenenfalls vorhandene zweite Befestigungsteil 10 kann in analoger Weise zusätzlich im Bereich der Isolierung 3 am Leiter 1 festgelegt werden. Die Positionen des Kontaktelements 5 am Leiter 1 und insbesondere der Lasche 7 ander Kontaktfläche 4 sind dadurch insgesamt auf Dauer sichergestellt.
- The
contact element 5 is correspondingFig. 6 with parallel course to the conductor 1 is applied to the same. Thetab 7 then abuts thecontact surface 4, which is located on the front side of the conductor 1. The oblique course of thetab 7 is inFig. 6 slightly exaggerated to clearly show the corresponding starting position of thecontact element 5. Thereafter, thecontact element 5 is displaced in the axial direction of the conductor 1 under further contact with the same with pressure, in the direction of the arrow P of thecontact surface 4 hinweisend. As a result, thetab 7 is bent against its spring tension around theedge 8 so that it is pressed against thecontact surface 4 with increased force. In this position thefastening part 6 is formed around the conductor 1 so that thecontact element 5 is firmly and immovably fixed to the conductor 1, as it is inFig. 7 is shown. This can be done for example by crimping. The possibly existingsecond fastening part 10 can be set in an analogous manner in addition to the insulation 3 on the conductor 1. The positions of thecontact element 5 on the conductor 1 and in particular thetab 7 on thecontact surface 4 are thus ensured in total over time.
