Definitions

  • the invention relates to a plug and an electrical plug connection with a plug and a plug-in module, which can be used, for example, to connect a cable harness to an electrical device.
  • the operating elements can have slide tracks in which one or more bolts on the collar of the plug-in module engage.
  • a favorable design of the slide tracks achieves the highest possible translation when transforming the plug-in movement of the plug into the plug-in module into the movement on the control element (for example on a lever end or a slide handle) with a corresponding reduction in the maximum actuation force.
  • levers as operating elements in which a toothed rack can then be moved by a lever movement via a toothed wheel or by means of a toothed wheel in order to join the plug connection.
  • the power transmission is often limited by the available installation space and, associated therewith, the available actuation path of the operating element.
  • the DE 19 651 436 A1 shows a plug-in system in which, in order to plug a plug onto a corresponding counterpart, a slide mounted on the plug and on the counterpart can be displaced by means of a lever.
  • Embodiments of the present invention can advantageously make it possible to generate a high joining force in a plug connection by means of a translation via a slide element, so that only a small operating force is required and at the same time the necessary installation space can be kept small.
  • the invention relates to a plug for an electrical plug connection according to claim 1.
  • the plug comprises a housing which has a plurality of electrical plug contacts.
  • the electrical plug connection can be used, for example, to connect a cable harness to an electrical device.
  • the electrical plug connection can be used in a motor vehicle, such as a car, truck or bus.
  • the plug-in connection comprises a plug-in module with a plurality of complementary plug-in contacts which make electrical contact with the electrical plug-in contacts when the plug is in a fully plugged-in position on the plug-in module.
  • the plug connection can be a multi-pole plug connection, that is to say it can have a large number of plug contacts.
  • Both the plug and the plug-in module can each have a housing in which the plug contacts are carried and / or which is usually made of plastic.
  • the plug can be guided in the plug-in module in such a way that the plug can only be moved between an attached position and a fully attached position in the plug-in direction or in the opposite direction to the plug-in direction.
  • the plug In the attached position, the plug can be placed on a collar of the plug-in module (the electrical plug-in contacts of the plug and the plug-in module not making electrical contact).
  • the plug In the fully plugged-on position, the plug can be pushed into and / or over the collar up to a stop (the electrical plug-in contacts of the plug and the plug-in module then making electrical contact).
  • the plug further comprises a slide element which is movably attached to the housing and which is designed to engage in the plug-in module in such a way that when the slide element moves relative to the housing, a force is transmitted from the slide element to the plug-in module, so that the plug and the plug-in module can be moved towards one another in a plug-in direction or moved away from one another in a direction opposite to the plug-in direction.
  • the slide element can be understood as a mechanical translation element of the plug, which mechanically translates a movement of an operator or of the lever into a plugging movement.
  • the slide element can, for example, be displaceable with respect to the housing and at the same time be connected to the housing or attached to the housing in such a way that the slide element can transmit forces to the housing.
  • a fastening can be provided, for example, by a linear guide, an axis of rotation, a groove, etc.
  • the plug comprises a lever, which is rotatably mounted on the housing, for rotating a gear; and a first rack segment and a second rack segment, both of which are provided by the slide element and into which the gear engages, in particular engages one after the other, so that when the lever is moved in one direction, the gear meshes on the first rack segment and the slide element meshes with a first Moved direction of movement and the gear then meshes on the second rack segment and moves the slide element in a second direction of movement opposite to the first direction of movement.
  • the movement of the lever in one direction can be a movement in a single direction, so there is no need to change direction in the movement, which simplifies the assembly process.
  • the rack segments that are provided by the slide element can be arranged on the slide element and / or be permanently attached.
  • the rack segments can be formed on the slide element in such a way that they cannot be displaced with respect to the slide element.
  • the gearwheel does not engage in the first toothed rack segment and in the second toothed rack segment at the same time (except, if necessary, in a transition area at two mutually facing ends of the first and second Rack segment). Rather, the first and second toothed rack segments are arranged relative to one another in such a way that when the toothed wheel is moved by the lever, the toothed wheel first meshes with the first toothed rack segment and then meshes with the second toothed rack segment.
  • the rack segments can be spaced apart from one another at least in sections with respect to the axis of the gearwheel by a distance D which is greater than the largest diameter of the gearwheel (calculated over its teeth).
  • the two toothed rack segments can each be arranged on their own toothed rack, these two toothed racks then being able to be elements that are separate from one another.
  • the rack segments can also be arranged on a common rack.
  • the gear wheel can be attached to the housing so as to be rotatable about an axis of rotation that is stationary with respect to the housing.
  • a movement of the lever in one direction can be translated into a reciprocating movement of the slide element by means of two toothed rack segments.
  • This back and forth movement can run essentially parallel to a transverse direction of the plug connection.
  • the slide element can also have a (relatively small) offset in the plug-in direction or opposite to the plug-in direction due to a change of the gear from the first toothed rack segment to the second toothed rack segment of the toothed rack.
  • the back and forth movement of the slide element in the first direction of movement and the second direction of movement can then be converted by the slide element into two partial movements in the same direction (that is, either in the insertion direction or against the insertion direction), in which the plug is pushed onto the plug-in module or detached from it.
  • the first and second directions of movement can be approximately perpendicular to the direction in which the movement force is converted.
  • the directions of movement can run approximately perpendicular to the insertion direction.
  • the slide element can, for example, have inclined planes with differently oriented sections, one or more slide tracks with differently oriented sections and / or further rack segments or racks, which are designed to generate the partial movements of the plug relative to the plug-in module by means of a mechanical translation from the back and forth movement of the slide element.
  • the total force transmission between the force exerted on the lever and the force between the plug and the plug-in module can be halved in this way, because the two-part movement of the slide element in different directions means that twice the path is available on the slide element.
  • the operating force can be reduced by up to 50%, e.g. 45% or 50% or even by more than 50%, e.g. up to 60% or up to 75% compared to the operating force without the increased travel available. This can advantageously significantly simplify the assembly, even if a longer distance is necessary for this.
  • the actuation process does not have to be divided into two parts or carried out in different directions, which can be unusual for an operator.
  • a suitable design of the slide element and lever can cause the direction of travel of the slide element to change, although the direction of actuation of the lever remains the same over the entire closing process.
  • the first rack segment and the second rack segment are arranged relative to the gear wheel in such a way that the gear wheel meshes the first rack segment with a first side of the gear wheel and that the gear wheel meshes the second rack segment with a second side of the gear wheel wherein the first side of the gear is substantially opposite the second side of the gear. It is clear to those skilled in the art how such a relative arrangement of the gear and the rack with its first and second rack segments is to be formed and how the gear can be coupled to the first and second rack segments in order to provide this arrangement.
  • the axis of the gear can be arranged approximately in the middle between the first side of the gear and the second side of the gear.
  • This arrangement has the advantageous effect that when the gear is rotated clockwise, for example, the first rack segment of the rack meshes with the first side of the gear (for example a lower side of the gear) and in this way the first rack segment and thus the slide element from the right to the right shifted to the left.
  • the second side of the gear (for example an upper side of the gear) meshes with the second rack segment.
  • the second side of the gear is opposite the first side and now moves the second rack segment and thus the slide element from left to right with the same direction of rotation.
  • a simple, space-saving device (the gear wheel and the first and second rack segments arranged relative to it) advantageously creates the possibility of achieving a movement reversal without changing the direction of actuation. This advantageously reduces the risk of incorrect operation.
  • a bearing element is provided on the slide element and a counter-bearing element is provided in the housing of the plug, which has a first guide wall and a second guide wall that guide the bearing element when the slide element moves in the first direction of movement and the second direction of movement .
  • the first guide wall can guide the bearing element in the first direction of movement and the second guide wall can guide the bearing element in the second direction of movement.
  • the bearing element and the counter-bearing element can be arranged or spaced relative to one another and / or relative to the gearwheel and / or relative to the toothed rack that the toothed wheel cannot detach from the first or second toothed rack segment as long as the toothed wheel is not on Has arrived at the end of one of the two rack segments. This applies regardless of whether the gear meshes on the first or the second rack segment.
  • the counter-bearing element always pushes or presses against the bearing element in such a way that the rack is pressed or pushed against the toothed wheel.
  • the bearing element and the counter-bearing element can also be shaped accordingly to To prevent the gear wheel from leaving the rack (except when changing from the first to the second rack segment or segment at the end according to schedule).
  • the plug or the plug connection can advantageously be actuated more reliably, i.e. there is no slippage during operation and the risk of a malfunction or jamming is advantageously reduced.
  • the robustness of the operability with respect to temperature fluctuations and vibrations increases advantageously.
  • the counter-bearing element comprises a rib which provides the first guide wall and the second guide wall as side walls.
  • the circumferential walls of the rib or of the counter-bearing element can follow a line that is shaped exactly like a line that follows the axis of rotation of the lever or of the gear wheel with respect to the slide element when it meshes with the rack.
  • the circumferential walls of the rib or of the counter-bearing element can follow the reflection of this line along the insertion direction.
  • the bearing element of the slide element comprises a rib which is designed to slide with side surfaces on the first guide wall and the second guide wall.
  • a rib i.e. an elongated bearing element, can advantageously counteract tilting of the slide element relative to the housing of the plug. This further advantageously increases the reliability of the mechanism and reduces the risk of slippage.
  • the first rack segment and the second rack segment are provided by a (continuous) rack.
  • the first Rack segment and the second rack segment can be connected via a semicircular section of the rack.
  • the rack can therefore be curved in a U-shape.
  • the rack can, for example, have the shape of a horizontal "U", for example in the form: " ⁇ ” or in the form: " ⁇ ". This advantageously enables a particularly fluid sequence of movements during the transition of the gear wheel from the first toothed rack segment to the second toothed rack segment, whereby the operability is made easier.
  • the first rack segment and the second rack segment can be straight. This simplifies the manufacturability and the reliability of the mechanics. The risk of slippage is reduced. In addition, this advantageously has the effect that the gear meshes the first rack segment with a different side of the gear than the second rack segment or segment.
  • the first rack segment and the second rack segment run parallel to the first direction of movement and the second, opposite direction of movement. This advantageously has the effect that the gear meshes the first rack segment with a different side of the gear than the second segment or the second rack segment. Furthermore, the reliability of the mechanics is particularly high.
  • the first toothed rack segment and the second toothed rack segment are opposite one another in the insertion direction. It is possible for the teeth of the first toothed rack segment and of the second toothed rack segment to face one another.
  • This can have the advantage that the gear can be arranged within the two segments or rack segments and thus the offset of the axis of rotation of the lever in the plug-in direction, due to the fact that the gear changes between the two segments or rack segments, can be kept small.
  • This advantageously has the effect that the gear meshes the first rack segment with a different side of the gear than the second segment or the second rack segment.
  • the reliability of the mechanics is particularly high and manufacturability is simplified.
  • the teeth of the first toothed rack segment and of the second toothed rack segment may point away from one another.
  • Such an arrangement allows, for example, a larger gearwheel with more teeth to be used, whereby the operating forces can advantageously be further reduced (transmission ratio improved).
  • the slide element has a slide track in which a bolt attached to the plug-in module can be guided.
  • a slide track can be a depression and / or track in or on the slide element, which is delimited by two essentially parallel walls.
  • the bolt guided by the slide track can have a diameter which is essentially the same as the distance between the parallel walls.
  • the bolt can be round, but can also have parallel outer surfaces that are guided by the parallel walls.
  • a slide track or “a bolt” is to be understood as “at least one slide track” and “at least one bolt”.
  • the simpler expression was chosen for the sake of readability.
  • the same also applies to the expressions: “a gear”, “a toothed rack”, “a first toothed rack segment”, “a second toothed rack segment”, etc., which are used as “at least one toothed wheel”; “at least one rack”, “at least one first rack segment”, “at least one second rack segment”, etc. are to be understood.
  • the slide track has at least a first section and a second section, which are oriented in such a way that the plug can be inserted into the plug-in module in the plug-in direction or the plug removed from the plug-in module counter to the plug-in direction by a movement of the slide element takes place in the first direction of movement and the second direction of movement.
  • This allows the back and forth movement, which is generated by turning the lever in a single direction, over the slide track in two partial movements of the plug relative to the plug-in module be translated, both of which run in the same direction (in or against the plugging direction).
  • the first section of the slide track and the second section of the slide track are connected via a bend in the slide track at which the slide track changes direction.
  • the slide track can be angled and / or have a flat angle (less than 90 °) between the first section and the second section.
  • the bolt alternates between the first section and the second section.
  • the relative angle of the first section with respect to the second section at the bend can be less than 90 °. This allows the mechanism to work particularly efficiently.
  • the gear is located between the first rack segment and the second rack segment.
  • the distance between the first rack segment and the second rack segment along the plug-in direction can be dimensioned so that an offset of the slide element relative to the housing of the plug in the plug-in direction can be used to move the bolt of the plug-in module between the two sections of the slide track within the kink
  • the toothed wheel can therefore be located in the semicircular section of the toothed rack, for example in the case of an exemplary "U" -shaped profile of the toothed rack, when the bolt is in the kink.
  • the radius of the semicircular section of the rack between the two segments of the rack can be dimensioned so that an offset of the slide element relative to the housing of the plug in the plug-in direction can be used to move the bolt of the plug-in module between the two sections of the slide track within the kink to move
  • the slide track is shaped like a zigzag.
  • the first section and the second section can run at a positive and a negative angle to the insertion direction. These angles determine the transmission ratio of the force exerted by the gearwheel on the slide element into a force exerted by the slide element on the bolt.
  • the amount of the two angles can be the same, but they can also differ in amount, what leads to different forces between plug and plug-in module, depending on the direction of movement of the slide element.
  • the (same) operating force applied can lead to forces of different magnitude in the plug-in direction between the plug and the plug-in module.
  • a slide element with a rack with the two segments or the two rack segments and / or with a slide track and a corresponding bolt can be attached to opposite sides of the plug or the plug-in module, the rack segments and / or the Slide tracks can then run parallel to one another on the opposite sides.

  • the sections 34a, 34b of the slide track 30 act as a mechanical force transmission, in which a force on the slide element 26 along the directions of movement S1, S2 is converted into a force parallel to the insertion direction R.
  • the insertion direction R is approximately perpendicular to the first and second directions of movement S1, S2.
  • the transmission ratio of the force is dependent on the angle of the sections 34a, 34b with respect to the insertion direction R (or the local angle at which the bolt 32 is located in the slide track 30).
  • the two sections 34a, 34b can be straight and each have the same positive and negative angle with respect to the insertion direction R. It is also possible that the angle between the section 34b and the straight line defined by the direction R is greater than the angle between the section 34a and this straight line. This can be of advantage if a lot of force has to be applied at the end of the plugging process in order to bring the plug contacts into mechanical contact. For example, if the plug contacts 16, 18 are arranged in such a way that, from the middle position, the plug contacts make contact and are pushed into one another and thus a higher frictional force has to be overcome.
  • a higher force transmission then takes place in the second section 34b than in the first section 34a.
  • a fitter has to use less operating force (e.g. on the lever 28) than with the bolt 32 in the first section 34a in order to generate the same insertion force between the plug 12 and the plug-in module 14.
  • the insertion force between the plug 12 and the plug-in module 14 is greater when the bolt 32 is located in the second section 43b.
  • the ratio between actuation travel and insertion travel for the second section 34b is smaller than in the first section 34a. In other words, in comparison to the first section 34a, a relatively large actuation path has to be covered for a relatively little insertion path in the second section 34.
