Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a connector for connecting a power cable to a board with a housing adapted to hold a contact which is crimped onto the power cable.
  • Such connectors are e.g. used in the automotive industry as can be seen from DE 198 04 599 A1 .
  • the connector comprises a casing for housing contact springs connected to electrical cables as well as a circuit board.
  • the casing has an upper and a lower part which are clipped onto each other during assembly to fix the contacts there between such that the contact springs are electrically connected to the circuit board.
  • US 2001/0029129 A1 discloses a connector including a housing body and a cover.
  • the housing body defines a terminal accommodation chamber for accommodating a terminal connected to the terminal end of a circuit body.
  • US 4,040,703 A discloses an improved electrical connector assembly for terminating multiple conductor cable and, in particular tri-lead cable.
  • the connectors As electronic systems are very important in today's automotive industry and as the requirements for connectors are very specific in each case of use, the connectors have to be specifically designed for each respective scenario.
  • the connector shall be adapted for a connection of a power cable to a board in electronic vehicles as will be described hereinafter.
  • the connector as well as the board shall be mounted inside a casing.
  • the casing has an opening in a side wall through which the power cable extends towards the connector.
  • the cable comprises an electric contact which is crimped onto a cable head.
  • the connector is fixed to the casing and its assembly, namely the fixation of the contact in the connector housing, has to take place inside the casing with only little space being available.
  • the connector has to withstand vibrations and a disconnection of the power cable from the board has to be prevented.
  • the second supporting portion comprises a third supporting surface and a fourth supporting surface which form a corresponding counterpart to the first supporting surface and a second supporting surface such that the upper area of the contact is retained between at least the first, second, third and fourth supporting surfaces when the second housing part engages with the first housing part.
  • the second housing part comprises a connecting opening through which the contacts are electrically connectable.
  • the first, second, third and fourth supporting surfaces are adapted to align the upper area of the contact with this connecting opening when the second housing part engages the first housing part.
  • the term "counterpart" defines that the third supporting surface and the fourth supporting surface each face the first supporting surface and the second supporting surface, respectively.
  • the first, second, third and fourth supporting surfaces form a second retaining portion for retaining an upper area of the contact.
  • the contact Prior to assembly of the connector, the contact is received within the connector. By subsequently bending the second housing part towards the first housing part to engage therewith in a form locking manner, the contact is fixedly secured within the connector.
  • the housing is longer along the longitudinal axis of the contact than transverse to said axis such that bending the second housing part towards the first housing part can be achieved with only little space being available.
  • the housing is adapted to hold two or more contacts.
  • the first, second, third and fourth supporting surfaces are adapted to fix the upper area of the contact transverse to the longitudinal axis of the contact.
  • the first and second supporting surfaces as well as the third and fourth supporting surfaces enclose an angle of 90°, they at least partially enclose the upper area of the contact.
  • the third supporting surface and the fourth supporting surface are positioned adjacent to each other.
  • the third and fourth supporting surfaces form an edge there between.
  • first, second, third and fourth supporting surfaces are adapted to abut the upper area of the contact.
  • all four supporting surfaces abut the upper area of the contact and, thus, prevent movement of the upper area of the contact transverse to its longitudinal axis.
  • the retaining portion is a recess, which is formed by inner walls of the first housing part wherein at least two of the inner walls form opposing retaining surfaces adapted to retain the lower area of the contact therebetween.
  • the contact Prior to engaging the second housing part with the first housing part, the contact is positioned within the first housing part of the connector, whereas the lower area of the contact is retained between the opposing retaining surfaces. Thus, the contact stays in its position during assembly of the connector.
  • the recess is open towards a receiving side of the first housing part for receiving the lower area of the contact and is open in a vertical direction towards the second housing part.
  • the recess is adapted to receive the connector such that the connector vertically extends beyond the recess towards the second housing part whereas the power cable onto which the contact is crimped enters the housing from the receiving side of the first housing part.
  • the retaining surfaces of the retaining portion are positioned perpendicular to the first supporting surface.
  • the contact has two side surfaces and a front as well as a back surface. While the retaining surfaces abut the side surfaces of the contact, the first supporting surface of the first housing part may abut the rear surface of the contact.
  • the first supporting surface is a rear inner surface adapted to form a stop for the contact when being inserted in the retaining portion.
  • the positioning of the contact when being inserted into the first housing part is simplified.
  • the contact is abutted by three surfaces the contact remains in its position during the bending of the second housing part towards the first housing part.
  • the first housing part has a slot positioned vertically adjacent to the recess and being adapted to engage with the contact such that vertical movement of the contact is restricted.
  • the contact has a side arm which is formed as a loop and extends into the slot.
  • the slot is formed inbetween the recess and the second supporting surface of the first housing part and extends horizontally towards the receiving side of the first housing part.
  • the housing comprises guiding posts which extend in a vertical direction from the lower side of the housing.
  • the casing comprises holes corresponding to the guiding posts.
  • the guiding posts enable the connector to vertically move within the casing.
  • the housing comprises leg supports which extend from the lower side of the housing and form a stop at their lower end. These leg supports define a lowermost position of the housing within the casing during assembly.
  • the first housing part comprises a protrusion and the second housing part comprises a snap in tongue, wherein during an engagement of the first and second housing parts in a form locking manner the snap in tongue engages with the protrusion.
  • a form locking connection can easily be manufactured and guarantees a safe and durable connection between the first and second housing part.
  • first housing part and the second housing part are connected by one single integral hinge.
  • An integral hinge is a simple constructive measure to allow bending of the second housing part relative to the first housing part.
  • the housing is produced by injection molding using one single mould. Consequently, the manufacturing costs are reduced.
  • the present invention also relates to a connector assembly comprising a board mounted in a casing, the board being electrically connected with at least a power cable via a connector as defined above.
  • the assembly allows simple installation of the board within the casing and a secure mount to the connector.
  • Fig. 1 shows a partial perspective view of a pre-mounted connector assembly 1 comprising a board 2 which is mounted in a casing 3.
  • the board 2 is electrically connected to power cables 4 via a connector 5.
  • the power cables 4 extend into the casing 3 through an opening 6 and are connected to a power source (not shown).
  • Fig. 2 shows the connector assembly 1 from a rear perspective in the pre-mounted state.
  • the connector 5 is positioned within the casing 3 such that a lower side 7 of the connector 5 abuts the bottom wall 8 of the casing 3.
  • the board 2 comprises pins 9 which are partially inserted into the connector 5 and thus establish an electrical connection.
  • the pins 9 serve as guiding means when mounting the board 2 onto the connector 5.
  • a screw 10 protrudes through the board 2 and partly engages with the connector 5.
  • Fig. 3 shows the connector assembly 1 in a fully mounted state.
  • the screw 10 is tightened, thereby vertically lifting the connector 5 until it abuts the board 2 on its lower side 11.
  • Vertically extending knobs 13 which are positioned on an upper side 12 of the connector 5 protrude through corresponding holes 14 (see Fig. 1 ) of the board 2 in order to properly align the connector with the board 2.
  • a durable connection between the board 2 and the connector 5 is established.
  • the connector 5 comprises guiding posts 15 which extend in a vertical direction from the lower side 7 of the connector 5 and which engage in corresponding holes (not shown) positioned in the bottom wall 8 of the casing 3. When tightening the screw 10 and thereby lifting the connector 5 towards the board 2 the connector 5 is vertically guided by the guiding posts 15.
  • Each guiding post 15 has rips 16 which extend in a radial outward direction.
  • the connector 5 shall be explained in more detail in the following with reference to the Figs. 4 to 7 :
  • the connector 5 comprises a housing 17 which is adapted to hold contacts 18 that are crimpable onto the power cable 4.
  • the housing 17 comprises an upper side 12 and a lower side 7. On its upper side 12 the housing 17 has connecting openings 19 through which the pins 9 (see Fig. 2 ) contact the contacts 18 positioned in the housing 17. Additionally, the housing 17 comprises a thread 20 on its upper side 12 to receive the screw 10 (see Fig. 2 ).
  • the housing 17 On its lower side 7 the housing 17 comprises leg supports 21 which extend from the lower side 7 of the housing 17 and form a stop at their lower ends 22. These lower ends 22 of the leg supports 21 abut the bottom wall 8 of the casing 3 ( Fig. 2 ) and, thus, define, in addition to the lower side 7 of the housing 17, the lowermost position of the connector 5 within the casing 3.
  • the housing 17 further comprises a first housing part 23 and a second housing part 24 formed as one piece.
  • the first housing part 23 and the second housing part 24 are connected by one single integral hinge 25.
  • the second housing part 24 is bendable towards the first housing part 23 to engage therewith in a form locking manner.
  • the second housing part 24 comprises a snap in tongue 26 which engages with a protrusion 27 of the first housing part 23 forming a form locking connection.
  • the first housing part 23 has two retaining portions 28 for retaining lower areas of the contacts 18 and first supporting portions 29 for supporting upper areas of the contacts 18 transverse to longitudinal axes 30 of the contacts 18.

  • One of the retaining surfaces 33 may be formed by a rib 34 extending inwards from an inner wall 32 of the first housing part 23 as shown in Fig. 6 regarding the recess 31 on the right side of the first housing part 23.
  • the recesses 31 are open towards a receiving side of the first housing part 23 for receiving the lower area of the contacts 18 and are open in a vertical direction towards the second housing part 24.
  • the receiving side is defined as the side of the housing 17 from which the contacts 18 are received in the retaining portions 28.
  • the receiving side of the first housing part 23 is facing the opening 6 of the casing 3 ( Fig. 1 ).
  • the retaining surfaces 33 of the retaining portions 28 are positioned perpendicular to first supporting surfaces 35 which are part of the first supporting portions 29 for supporting upper areas of the contacts 18.
  • the first supporting surface 35 are rear inner surfaces of the first housing part 23 adapted to form a stop for the contacts 18 when being inserted in the retaining portions 28.
  • Each first supporting portion 29 further comprises a second supporting surface 36 which extends from the area of the first supporting surface 35 horizontally towards the receiving side of the housing 17.
