Definitions

  • the invention relates to a holding frame for connector modules according to the preamble of independent claim 1.
  • Such support frames are used to hold connector modules, the support frame equipped with various connector modules and then inserted into a connector housing and bolted to it.
  • the support frame must be mechanically stable in order to withstand the insertion and pulling forces occurring when assembling or disconnecting the connector can.
  • CN 204 271 392 U discloses a support frame for connector modules according to the preamble of independent claim 1.
  • the DE 197 07 120 C1 is a holding frame for connector modules known.
  • the support frame consists of two halves, which are connected to each other via a hinge. In recesses of the side surfaces of the respective half engage latching hooks of the connector modules.
  • the joint or the end-side joints are arranged in the attachment ends of the holding frame.
  • the frame of the DE 197 07 120 C1 has no clearly defined open position for equipping the holding frame with connector modules. This sometimes results in a somewhat bulky assembly, especially inexperienced people.
  • the CN 204 205 152 U shows a holding frame, which consists of two halves, which are hinged together.
  • the halves can - be brought into an open angular position - for loading the holding frame with connector modules.
  • the restoring force of the spring pulls the halves 1, 2 back to a closed position after assembly.
  • the CN 201 656 162 U shows a holding frame, which consists of two halves, which are linearly connected together by a spring.
  • the halves can be drawn linearly into an open position for equipping the holding frame with connector modules. Here you have to work against the force of a spring.
  • the restoring force of the spring pulls the halves back to a closed position after assembly.
  • the DE 20 2012 103 360 U1 shows a holding frame, which consists of two halves, which are locked by a linear displacement of a frame half relative to the other frame half with each other in two different locking positions.
  • the plug connector modules can fall through during loading due to a linearly open holding frame.
  • the object of the invention is to propose a holding frame which is easy to handle and versatile.
  • the support frame according to the invention is intended to be filled with connector modules and installed in a connector housing or a machine wall and screwed.
  • the support frame consists of two interconnectable halves, a first half and a second half, which form a separation plane to each other, which runs parallel to the longitudinal sides of the halves.
  • the holding frame has a blocking element with at least one end-side latching hook.
  • a recess is introduced, in which the latching hook of the locking element is engageable or can intervene.
  • the recess is chosen so that the two halves are in an angular position less than 180 ° to each other when engaging the locking element. The angular position will be explained in more detail below. As a result, the holding frame is fixed in an open position.
  • the holding frame has at least one blocking element and the halves can be aligned and fixed to one another via the first blocking element in at least two positions, an open position and a closed position.
  • the alignability is achieved by the articulated connection of the two halves of the holding frame.
  • the fixability is achieved by the blocking element. The interaction of articulated connection and fixability in two positions makes the support frame particularly user-friendly.
  • the support frame can be selectively fixed in an open position or in a closed position.
  • the halves of the holding frame are each in a plane in whose cutting area an angle ⁇ is formed.
  • open position is meant that the halves along the dividing line at an angle ⁇ are not equal to 180 ° to each other.
  • the angle is between 130 ° to 170 °.
  • An angle between 155 ° and 165 ° has proven to be particularly advantageous.
  • the connector modules can be inserted particularly easily in the holding frame.
  • the halves In the closed position, the halves occupy an angle of approximately 180 ° or exactly 180 ° to each other. The halves are thus in the closed position parallel to each other.
  • the blocking element is formed from a flat component, which covers both halves of the holding frame at least partially.
  • the blocking element is arranged at one end of the holding frame.
  • the other end of the Holding frame is designed barrier-free, which makes the support frame particularly inexpensive and easy to handle.
  • the blocking element is fixed to one half, for example via a screw.
  • the blocking element has a first finger and a second finger.
  • the first and second fingers are within the same plane.
  • the first finger is longer than the second finger executed and the second finger end of a locking hook is formed.
  • one half of the holding frame has a recess into which the latching hook of the second finger of the blocking element can be engaged.
  • the holding frame is fixable in an open position.
  • the second finger holds a frame half so that it can not fall back into the closed position.
  • a recess described above can be easily realized manufacturing technology on the support frame or on one half of the support frame.
  • the second finger of the blocking element or the blocking element itself consists of an elastic material.
  • the second finger By a directed away from the holding frame movement of the second finger, the second finger is removable from the recess and the holding frame is thereby brought into a closed position.
  • the latching hook can be levered out of the recess by the movement described above.
  • the solution is very user-friendly.
  • the first finger exerts a force on the second half, whereby the holding frame can be fixed in the closed position.
  • the force is against the rotation directed the hinge axis of the two halves.
  • the second half is fixed by the second finger, against the force of the first spring, in an angular position to the first half, whereby the holding frame is fixed in the open position.
  • the halves are made of a metallic material and are in electrically conductive contact with each other.
  • the electrical contact can be made via the blocking element.
  • open or closed state and open or closed position are used interchangeably.
  • the two halves are reliably brought into electrical contact with each other. This happens on the one hand via the blocking element itself, if it is made of an electrically conductive material. In addition, is pressed by the bias of the locking element of the condyle of one half in the joint seat of the other half, whereby a reliable electrical contact is formed.
  • FIG. 1 is the perspective view of a holding frame 1 to see, which is in a closed position.
  • the holding frame consists essentially of two halves 4, 5, which are connected to each other via a hinge.
  • one half 5 has at the respective end faces a joint head 2 which engages in a joint receptacle 3 of the opposite half 4 provided for this purpose. This is called an articulated connection of the two halves 4, 5 of the holding frame.
  • the support frame 1 has a grounding socket 24 into which a pin (not shown) of an opposite support frame (not shown) can engage.
