Definitions
- the invention relates to a protective cap for a mounting housing according to claim 1.
- the invention also relates to a system of a protective cap according to claim 1 and a matching mounting housing.
- Such caps are used to mounting housing for
- Attached housing is inserted.
- DE 10 2010 061 384 A1 shows a protective cap for a
- box-shaped basic shape has a locking magnet.
- the US 7 915 528 B2 shows a protective cap for a mounting housing, wherein the protective cap is formed on at least one broad side of the box-shaped basic shape a locking lug.
- DE 691 14 560 T2 shows a socket fuse cap, which has on one broad side two hinge receptacles and on at least one narrow side of a locking tongue which in a
- Locking tab of the socket is vulnerable.
- EP 1 830 433 A3 shows an attachment housing for a
- the protective cap is hinged at two points to the mounting housing. About a pivoting movement, the cap can be folded onto the mounting housing and a
- Locking bracket to be mounted on it.
- Such a locking mechanism is complex and subject to wear.
- the cap is irreversibly connected to the mounting housing, which can cause space problems for the connector.
- the object of the invention is to propose a protective cap for a mounting housing, which is easy to handle and can be produced inexpensively.
- the protective cap according to the invention is provided for media-tight sealing of a mounting housing of a plug connection.
- Protective cap has a substantially box-shaped basic shape.
- the attachment housing has on the narrow sides of the box-shaped
- each first locking means On at least one broad side of the box-shaped basic shape, the protective cap comprises a second locking means.
- the first and second locking means are different.
- a mounting housing In a mounting housing are usually contact elements that are electrically contacted with corresponding contact elements of a connector which is plugged into or into the mounting housing.
- the first locking means are locking pins.
- a locking bracket may be pivotally mounted, which can engage over the locking pin.
- the protective cap is fixed on the mounting housing particularly secure and media-tight.
- both broad sides of the box-shaped basic shape have a locking means.
- both broad sides have different
- the second locking means is a locking tab.
- the third locking means is a part of a hinge.
- the attachment housing has the other part of the hinge.
- the protective cap is therefore connected via a hinge connection with the attachment housing.
- the mounting housing has a latching lug, via which the locking tab of the protective cap can engage, whereby a fixing of the protective cap, in the closed state, takes place on the mounting housing.
- the cap can be fixed without a locking bracket on the mounting housing.
- FIG. 1 is a perspective view of a protective cap
- Fig. 2 is a perspective view of a system of a
- FIG. 3 is a further perspective view of the system of a
- FIG. 4 is a further perspective view of the system of a
- FIG. 5 is a side view of the system of a protective cap and a mounting housing with locking bracket
- Fig. 6 is another side view of the system of a

- FIG. 8 is a close-up view of a locking pin and a
- Fig. 9 is a close-up view of the locking pin.
- FIG. 1 shows a perspective view of a
- the protective cap according to the invention.
- the protective cap has an im
- Broad side 4 is an integrally formed locking tab 5 from. At the opposite broad side 4 'is a part of a hinge 6 is formed.
- FIGS. 2, 3 and 5-7 each show a system comprising a protective cap 1 and a mounting housing 7.
- a locking bracket 8 is pivotally mounted on the mounting housing 7, which, in conjunction with the locking pin 3, reversibly fixed the protective cap on the mounting housing.
- the mounting housing 7 has a second part of a hinge 9, which is either formed on the mounting housing 7 or attached thereto. Through the hinge connection, the protective cap 1 can be swung open and release a plug-in area (not shown) within the attachment housing 7.
- a Zuschwenken for closing the attachment housing 7 is of course also possible.
- the integrally formed on the protective cap 1 locking tab 5 can be performed via a molded-on housing 7 locking lug 10.
- the front bevelled part of the locking tab 5 first slides over the locking lug 10 over.
- the locking tab then snaps over the locking lug 10 over it, so that this
- the hinge 6, 9 and the locking tab 5 extend from the protective cap 1 media safe and reversible on the
- Attachment housing 7 to fix.
- the locking bracket 8 is over on the mounting housing. 7
- the locking pin 3 and the effective portion 16 of the locking bracket 8 are shaped so that upon actuation of the locking bracket 8 for opening the protective cap 1, this is first moved in the direction of the arrow 14, whereby the locking tab 5 is guided over the locking lug 10 ( Figure 6). By further movement of the locking bracket 8, the cap is now moved in the direction of arrow 15 and opened. The protective cap 1 is unlocked and is pressed by the sealing force as soon as the locking bracket 8 has moved away from the locking pin 3.
- Locking bracket 8 a mounting housing 7 can be used.
- the effective region 16 of the locking clip 8 is formed by the two end regions of the locking clip 8, which act on the respective locking pins 3.
- the effective range 16 has in the
- FIGS. 8 and 9 show a particularly preferred embodiment of the protective cap 1.
- an additional locking lug 17 is formed. If the friction between the locking pin 3 and the active region 16 of the locking bracket 8 is too low, the locking lug 17 ensures that the protective cap 1 is pressed over sufficiently in the opening direction.
