Definitions

  • the invention relates to a connector and a method for testing a connector for a connector, comprising a contact carrier with at least one contact partner receiving a contact chamber, wherein the contact is used primary locked in its contact chamber, wherein a locking tab is pivotally mounted with its attachment end to the contact carrier and for the at least one contact partner forms a secondary locking when this is used in its primary interlocked contact chamber, according to the features of the preambles of the two independent claims.
  • the invention relates to a plug connection, the testability of the secondary locking tab in Endverrast ein.
  • a secondary lock which forms a further lock in addition to the primary lock in order to fix the contact partner permanently in its contact chamber and to hold.
  • a connector which has a locking tab which is pivotally mounted with its attachment end to the contact carrier and which forms a secondary locking for the at least one contact partner when this is used in his primary contact-locked chamber.
  • testability is as to whether the secondary locking tab has moved from a first position to its final locked position, either poorly or not at all.
  • the invention has for its object to provide a connector and a method for testing such a connector, with which it is possible to check whether the locking tab has been pivoted to that position in which it effectively implements the secondary locking.
  • the locking tab at its end facing away from the attachment end has a together with the contact carrier forming the secondary latch crosspiece, wherein a test plug is provided, which is engageable with the connector and possibly with the locking tab in operative connection.
  • a test plug is provided, which is engageable with the connector and possibly with the locking tab in operative connection.
  • the test plug it is possible to check whether the locking tab is still in its open position, which does not yet cause the secondary locking of the contact in its contact chamber (also called Vorverrast ein) or if the locking tab already in the position that the secondary locking of the Contact partner in his contact chamber causes (also called Endverrast ein) is located. If the contact carrier of the connector is brought into operative connection with the test plug, for example by a plug-in, can be tested by means of the test plug, whether the locking tab is in its Endverrastrus.
  • the locking tab for whatever reason is not at all or not completely in the Endverrast ein or even in the complete Vorverrast ein, allows the mating of the connector and the test plug that closed by means of the test plug, the locking tab, that is in its Endverrast ein is brought so that the secondary lock is given.
  • the connector more precisely, the contact carrier
  • test plug If, in this test, it turns out that the locking tab is not or not completely in the final locked position, it will either be possible, as stated above, for the test plug to actuate the locking tab and bring it into its final locked position, or even It is not possible that the test plug and the contact carrier can be completely plugged together correctly and in accordance with regulations. The latter case can be detected by appropriate design and relative movement between the contact carrier and test plug.
  • the contact carrier, the locking tab and the test plug are designed and matched to one another, that when the locking tab is not fully engageable in its Endverrast ein, thereby the test plug in the mating with the contact carrier is completely or at least partially blocked, this by a suitable test device can be determined.
  • the path of the contact carrier is measured from a starting point into the test plug. In the proper mating results in a value that is known or can be determined and can be used for later comparison with other to be tested connectors. If this route is known and another contact carrier is plugged into the test plug while the test path measured, can be derived from the measured path, whether the locking tab properly and properly located in the Endverrast ein or if this is due to a blockade by the not completely closed Locking tab is not possible and thus the measured value deviates from the predetermined value of the test path.
  • FIG. 1 shows, as far as shown in detail, a connector 1, which can be plugged together with a mating connector, not shown, to form a plug connection.
  • the connector 1 is at the end of a single or multi-core cable, here a two-core cable 2, arranged.
  • the connector 1 of the embodiment has an outer housing 3, which is provided with an additional lock 4 (also called CPA, Connector Position Assurance, called).
  • the same connector 1 is also in FIG. 2 shown there cut partially open to recognize the interior of the connector 1 better and can describe.
  • the connector 1 in FIG. 2 has in addition to the outer casing 3 and the additional lock 4 a protective collar 5, which serves to guide the additional lock 4 when the connector 1 has been mated with the mating connector and the connector through the additional latch 4 on the connector 1 with a corresponding additional lock on the mating connector has been secured.
  • the connector 1 may or may not have the elements such as outer housing 3, and / or additional locking 4 and / or protective collar 5.
  • the connector 1, as in the FIGS. 1 and 2 is a practical connector but also formed by the contact carrier 7 without outer housing 3, additional lock 4 and protective collar 5. In this case, the seal 6 is not required.
  • the contact carrier 7 has at least one contact chamber, usually a plurality of contact chambers in a row next to each other and possibly several rows one above the other, wherein in each case a contact a contact partner (also not shown) is arranged.
  • the contact partner is primarily locked in its contact chamber when it has been used there. This is done, for example, in that the contact partner has a protruding spring tab, which engages behind an undercut in the contact chamber when the contact partner has been used properly and properly in its correct position in the contact chamber.
  • the contact carrier 7 has a locking tab 8.
  • the locking tab 8 is attached at its one end to the contact carrier 7 and is in its pre-latching position, in which they can not cause any secondary locking, preferably obliquely from the contact carrier 7 from.
  • This pre-locked position is in FIG. 2 shown.
  • a test plug 9 is shown, which is modeled on a mating connector in the plug-in area or even formed by the mating connector itself. This test plug 9 is mated with the connector 1.
  • the locking tab 8 (see FIG. 2 ) still in the Vorverrast ein shown there or it is (as not shown) only partially in the Endverrast ein causes the mating of the connector 1 or only the contact carrier 7 with the test plug 9 in a case that the locking tab 8 is fully brought into its secondary locking, as far as possible. If this is not possible because, for example, a contact partner was not properly arranged in his contact chamber, it is not possible to plug the test plug 9 and the contact carrier 7 in the correct position and completely together, which by suitable Wegunk the movement of the contact carrier 7 and / or of the test plug 9 can be determined during the assembly operation. In this case, measures can be taken that the locking tab 8 can be brought into its full secondary locking position or this contact carrier 7 is removed from the further production process.
  • FIG. 4 shows an exemplary embodiment of the test plug 9.
  • the test plug 9 has a base 10 and one of them outgoing and projecting circumferential collar 11. This makes it possible that the contact carrier 7 can be inserted with its outer contour in the contour of the test plug 9 within the circumferential collar 11.
  • the test plug 9 does not have to have at least one guide web 12 cooperating with the contact carrier 7. This guide bridge is the one in FIG. 4 is shown left inside the circumferential collar.
  • the test plug 9 in any case on a cooperating with the locking tab 8 guide and test bar 12.
  • a locking tab 8 is provided, which can be brought from a Vorverrast ein in which it projects obliquely from the contact carrier 7 in a Endverrast ein in which it is largely aligned parallel to the contact carrier 7.
  • a transverse web is arranged, which forms a latching means, which is brought into detent engagement with a corresponding recess in the contact carrier 7, when the locking tab 8 is brought from its Vorverrast- in their Endverrast ein.
  • the locking tab 8 is formed in this case flat and without recess in this area. It can each have at least one recess on the right and / or left of its longitudinal axis, but in this case have a web around the longitudinal axis for the purpose of stabilization. It has at its one end to the already described transverse web, with which it is arranged latching on the contact carrier 7 when it is in its Endverrast ein.
  • a clearance on at least one side of the locking tab 8, in this case on both sides of the locking tab 8, is formed by a respective side edge in cooperation with a projection which is formed by the transverse web. That is, the lateral ends of the locking tab are stepped so that they form the space into which the check bar 12 is insertable.
  • test bar 12 If the test bar 12 is inserted into the free space, it is blocked at the end of the test path of the cross bar, so that it can be deduced from the resulting from the blockage and to be detected excweges that the locking tab 8 is in its Vorverrast ein or Endverrastrus.
  • test path is longer than the test path before because the strigsteg 12 is no longer blocked along its test path from the crossbar.
  • the test path of the test bar 12 is only blocked by contact with, for example, the illustrated circumferential collar of the contact carrier 7, so that the now larger Test path can also be detected and derived from the fact that the locking tab 8 is in its intended position, namely the Endverrast too.
  • test plug 9 have at least one cooperating with the at least one contact partner in the contact carrier 7 test pin 13.
  • the presence of the contact partner in the respective contact chamber of the contact carrier 7 of the connector 1 can be checked electrically. This check may additionally and independently of the test, whether the locking tab 8 has been completely brought from its Vorverrast- in their Endverrast ein which causes the secondary latch.
  • FIG. 5 the connector 1 is analogous to FIG. 2 represented in the illustration in FIG. 5 the locking tab 8 is in its Endverrast ein.
  • This pivoting from the Vorverrast ein ( FIG. 2 ) of the locking tab 8 in its Endverrast ein ( FIG. 5 ) can be done manually or automatically by an actuating means without the test plug 9 was used for this purpose. Alternatively, it can be thought to allow the pivoting of the locking tab 8 to be performed by the test plug 9 without an additional actuating means is present.
  • test plug 9 it not only simultaneously causes the pivoting of the locking tab 8 from its Vorverrast- in their Endverrast ein, but it can also simultaneously check whether the locking tab 8 pivots without the test plug 9, the test plug 9 can still Come to check this complete and correct pivoting process. It is also used when the locking tab 8 has been brought only partially from its pre-locked position to its final locked position, so that in In this case, the partial pivoting detected, but for example due to a blockade of the locking tab 8, this not complete and continue to be pivoted by the test plug 9 on. The situation in FIG. 5 is therefore such that the locking tab 8 is in its intended and proper position and the test plug was pulled out of the connector 1.
  • test plug 9 The aforementioned movement forms of the test plug 9 are effected by a test device, not shown, having means such as sensors and actuators with which the test plug 9 moves and the test path of the test plug 9 can be detected.
  • the test device has a memory unit and a comparison unit in which the lengths of the desired test paths are stored, which can be compared with actual test paths that the test plug 9 covers and that are detected.
  • the connector 1 is shown in section in addition.
  • the contact carrier 7 is inserted into the test plug 9.
  • the locking tab 8 is in its final locked position.
  • the test bar 12 of the test plug 9 can be inserted laterally into the free space of the locking tab 8 and is not blocked by the transverse web 14 of the locking tab 8, since the transverse web 14 is arranged latching in a correspondingly shaped recess in the contact carrier 7.
  • a blockade through the transverse web 14 would take place if the locking tab 8 would not be located completely or not in this depression. With blockade results in a shorter path for the test bar 12 than without blockage.
  • the contact carrier 7 is checked without contact partners, he can in another variant even the at least one contact partner in its associated Have contact chamber, the presence of which is preferably checked by an electrical connection by means of the test pin 13 and a corresponding measuring device.
  • the contact carrier 7 is shown alone and its dimensions and measurement planes located. This arrangement of the measurement planes and the dimensions of the contact carrier 7 are merely exemplary and can be changed without departing from the spirit of the invention, in particular increased and / or reduced.
  • the contact carrier 7 and the test plug 9 must be in a defined position relative to one another before the beginning or at the start of the test procedure.
  • This position can be seen for example in that the upper circumferential edge of the collar 11 and the facing end face of the contact carrier 7 are in a plane or are in two planes located at a defined distance from each other.
  • test plug 9 and contact carrier 7 are moved towards each other, this movement is effected by a corresponding actuator and is determined by a corresponding sensor of the test path. If the locking tab 8 is properly closed, that is, it is in its secondary locking position (Endverrast ein), the way can be determined if the contact carrier 7 has been introduced in this case completely along a known path of known length in the test plug 9.
  • the target-actual comparison between the actual length of the test path and the stored length of the test path shows that these two test paths match (possibly based on a tolerance), so that this is an information that the locking tab 8 is in its intended position. If this is not the case due to the not fully assumed position of the locking tab 8, the actually measured test path of the contact carrier 7 in the test plug 9 be shorter, so that the target-actual comparison between actual measured test path and stored correct test path deviates significantly from each other. This is then an indication that the locking tab 8 has not or only partially been moved from the pre-latching to the final latching position because it has been blocked for some reason.
  • the forces acting, for example, on the test plug 9 when the contact carrier 7 is plugged in there can be measured alternatively or additionally. From the measured test paths and / or the measured test forces, the correct or faulty position of the locking tab 8 with respect to the contact carrier 7 can be determined by appropriate target-actual comparison with correct stored test paths and / or test loads. Depending on this, the contact carrier 7 can be released as error-free for the further handling process or rejected in the event of an error.
  • the connector consists of a contact carrier (also called socket housing) and an outer housing (also called protective collar). Between contact carrier and outer housing may, but does not have one Be provided seal. Also an additional locking (CPA called) can, but does not have to be present.
  • a contact carrier also called socket housing
  • an outer housing also called protective collar
  • the contact partners not shown, which are used in the contact carrier are used by means of suitable means (for example, a tab on the contact partner) in the contact chamber and primary locked.
  • suitable means for example, a tab on the contact partner
  • a secondary lock is required which is realized by means of a secondary locking tab extending transversely across part or all of the contact partners.
  • contact partners not only be primarily locked in their respective contact chambers, but also secondarily locked. This requires that the secondary locking tab be brought from a first (open) position to a final locked position.
