Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a connector assembly having a cable and a connector.
  • the EP 3 242 359 A1 shows a connector assembly having a connector and a cable connected to the connector, wherein the cable has at least one recess in a connection region in which the cable is connected to the connector, wherein the connector has an outer conductor contact extending from the connector up to extends the connection region of the cable and is formed corresponding to the surface of the connecting portion with the recess, wherein the cable has a jacket which extends to a stripped area, and a sleeve which is formed in the stripped area and spaced from the jacket in that the sheath and the sleeve form a recess of the cable, wherein the outer conductor contact extends to the sheath of the cable and at the point of the recess of the cable to this indentation of the cable corresponding indentation, which increases the holding force of the outer-conductor contact on the cable, wherein the cable has an outer conductor and an inner conductor, which are isolated from the jacket, wherein the outer conductor is folded over in the connecting region over the
  • the outer conductor namely a braided screen, change its structure and / or position after establishing a connection between the connector and the cable.
  • the present invention has the object to provide a connector assembly with an increased holding force between the cable and the connector and improved electrical properties of the connector assembly.
  • the idea underlying the present invention is to increase the holding force of a connector on a cable by having a stepped surface in an end portion for connection to a connector and an outer conductor contact of the connector in this connection portion corresponding to the stepped surface.
  • the cable has a jacket which extends to a stripped area, and a sleeve which is formed in the stripped area and which is spaced from the jacket such that the jacket and the sleeve form a recess of the cable.
  • cables generally have a jacket and connector assemblies usually a sleeve. Accordingly, no additional component needs to be added to the connector assembly, so there is no extra cost due to the assembly process and it only needs to be slightly adjusted.
  • the indentation may be interrupted by a bulge.
  • a plastic ring which encloses the cable in the region of the indentation can be provided as a bulge. The use of plastic is particularly advantageous because plastic does not affect the electrical properties of the connector assembly.
  • the outer conductor contact extends up to the jacket of the cable and, at the point of the indentation of the cable, has a recess corresponding to this indentation of the cable, which increases the holding force of the outer conductor contact on the cable.
  • This embodiment of the invention is particularly easy to implement in a mounting process.
  • the outer conductor contact can have an additional bulge.
  • the cable has an outer conductor and an inner conductor, which are insulated from a jacket, wherein the outer conductor is folded over in the connecting region over the sleeve.
  • the outer conductor of the cable is fastened, in particular clamped, by the outer-conductor contact of the plug connector arrangement in the region between the sleeve and the recess of the outer conductor contact.
  • the outer conductor of the cable can be additionally fastened, without the need for an additional assembly step is required.
  • the cable in the connection region at least one plastic ring, which forms a bulge, and the outer-conductor contact has a corresponding to the plastic ring bulge.
  • ring also includes a teilumflindliche, eg C-shaped enclosure of the cable, if the enclosure has a sufficient holding force on the cable.
  • plastic ring is made of the same material as the cable sheath is particularly advantageous. This can save material, as the sheathing of the cable produces excess sheath material.
  • the plastic ring can also be made of a stiffer plastic. This is particularly advantageous for a C-shaped enclosure, as this is particularly easy to clip on the cable.
  • the plastic ring may be advantageous to coat the plastic ring on its inside with electrically conductive material. As a result, if necessary, electrical properties of the connector arrangement can be improved.
  • the cable has an outer conductor which is designed as a screen braid. This ensures sufficient electromagnetic shielding of the cable.
  • the turning of the outer conductor of the cable around the sleeve ensures attachment of the outer conductor to the sleeve and prevents it from slipping.
  • the sleeve has a holding means, which exerts a radially inwardly directed force from the sleeve to the cable. In this way, the sleeve can be additionally secured against slipping on the cable.
  • the holding means is designed as a partially circumferential projection of the sleeve, in particular on a shell-side end of the sleeve.
  • the holding force of the sleeve on be increased particularly simple way.
  • a particular advantage of this is that a teilumflindliche rejuvenation or a teilumfnature pressure inside in relation to a full-scale taper or full-scale pressure inside only slightly on the impedance of the connector assembly affects, but already ensures a significant increase in the mechanical holding force of the sleeve.
  • the connector is crimped with the cable at the indentation and / or bulge. Is a connection technique that ensures sufficient holding power.
  • a jacket is crimped to the outer conductor contact. In this way, the mechanical holding force is additionally increased.
  • FIG. 1 shows an embodiment of a connector assembly 100 according to the invention with a connector 101 and a cable 103.
  • the connector 101 has an outer conductor contact 104 which is placed on one end of the cable 103.
  • the cable 103 is stripped off so that the outer conductor contact 104 of the connector 101 still extends to an initial region of the jacket 109 of the cable 103.
  • the outer conductor contact 104 has the indentation 107 in the cable-side end region. Under the indentation 107 is a corresponding to the recess 107 indentation 106 of the cable.
  • the outer conductor contact 104 is clamped at the recess 107 with the cable 103, so that the outer-conductor contact 104 is fixed sufficiently firmly to the cable 103. Due to the indentation 107 or 106, the force with which the outer conductor contact 104 is pressed with the cable 103, can be significantly reduced, since already the stepped surface of the cable 103 and the outer conductor contact 104 ensures a sufficient holding force.
  • FIG. 2 the connector assembly 100 is shown during the assembly process, because the outer conductor contact 104 has already received the cable 103, but the outer conductor contact 104 has not yet been closed. Under the outer conductor contact 104, the outer conductor 113 of the cable can be seen.
  • the outer conductor 113 is formed as a screen braid.
  • the sleeve 111 is arranged, over which the outer conductor 113 is folded or inverted. The sleeve 111 limits the indentation 106 of the cable.
  • the cable 103 is clamped by the funnel-shaped portion of the taper 127 and held.
  • the outer conductor 113 of the cable 103 extends below the support sleeve 111 and is folded over at a front edge of the support sleeve 111 and held on the trailing edge of the support sleeve 111 of the outer conductor contact 104 and the recess 107.
  • FIG. 4 shows a schematic exploded view of a connector assembly 100 according to the invention with a cable 103, a connector 101, which is inserted into a housing 125.
  • the inner conductor contact 115 is at the tip end of the connector 101 mounted.
  • the sleeve 111 is slid onto the stripped end.
  • FIGS. 5 and 6 show a schematic side view of a section of a cable 103 according to the invention.
  • the cable has a stripped area 121 by the jacket 109 has been removed from the cable 103.
  • the sleeve 111 was slid onto the stripped portion 121.
  • the sleeve 111 comprises a holding means 117, which applies a radially inwardly acting force on the cable 103 and thus prevents the sleeve 111 from slipping on the cable 103.
  • the holding means 117 is partially formed and in this respect designed such that a diameter jump from the holding means 117 relative to the sleeve body has as little effect on the impedance of the connector assembly.
  • an annular skirt portion is applied to prevent the individual strands or parts of the shielding braid of the cable 103 from fraying.
  • FIG. 7 shows a schematic view of a ready to mount cable, which is equipped with an inner conductor contact and a sleeve.
  • FIG. 8 shows the structure after layers of a connector assembly according to the invention in the vicinity of the recess 106. It can be seen that only the outer conductor contact 104 and the upper layer of the outer conductor 113, which lies on the sleeve 111 deform inwardly. In this way, the electrical properties of the remaining components of the connector assembly remain largely intact.
