Definitions

  • the invention relates to an electrical line having an electrical screen, which is contacted with an additional line and forms a Schirmaus horr.
  • Electrical lines of the type mentioned are used for example in the automotive sector to connect electrical units and components together.
  • a general tendency is to observe ever higher operating voltages, which allow smaller cable cross-sections.
  • devices and consumers are therefore increasingly supplied from power sources with increased voltage.
  • the power sources used can be designed for voltages of up to 1000 V.
  • Consumers are, for example, air conditioning compressors and especially in electric vehicles, a drive motor and existing heaters.
  • An active device is, for example, the charger for charging a battery.
  • For the connection of consumers and devices with a corresponding battery or connected to the same control electronics are provided with an electrically effective screen provided electrical lines.
  • a coaxial cable plug which is adapted to connect a ground line to the shield of a coaxial line to join.
  • the shield of the coaxial line is connected to a ground line and then plugged into a connector housing.
  • the plug housing has a cavity which makes it possible to close the cavity and in particular the connection region where the ground line is connected to the screen with a potting compound.
  • This type of sealing is complex and suitable for silicone sheathed cables only for temperature ranges of a maximum of 90-100 ° C.
  • the present invention has the object to provide electrical cable with a screen outlet, which is easier to manufacture.
  • the invention proposes an electrical line with at least one insulated conductor, which is surrounded by an electrical screen, which is contacted at a contact point with an additional conductor forming a Schirmaustechnisch.
  • a tightly sealed housing is mounted on the electrical line.
  • the electrical line may include a plurality of insulated conductors.
  • the proposed solution is designed so that single-core and multi-core cables, for example HV silicone sheathed cables in temperature ranges up to 180 ° C can be used.
  • the contact area between the electrical screen of the line and the Schirmaustechnisch is reliably protected by the housing from environmental influences and especially from corrosion.
  • the assembled housing can also be used in lines whose outer shell material, such as silicone, a waterproof Umspritzungsever, as is known from the prior art, is not feasible.
  • At least one seal is inserted into the housing, which seals the housing to the outside.
  • the seal can additionally be profiled on its outer circumference, in particular circumferential beads have to improve the sealing effect even further.
  • the seal may have a through opening or a plurality of through openings.
  • each seal is held in the housing by means of a retaining cap fixed on the housing.
  • the retaining cap also has the advantage that the seal is protected from mechanical influences, which could lead to a deterioration of the sealing effect.
  • On the housing and the retaining cap locking means may be provided which ensure easy installation and at the same time secure fit of the retaining cap.
  • a holding element is also provided, which fixes the contact point in the housing. In this way, the contact point in the housing is prevented from being moved back and forth, which in the worst case could damage the contact point or even break a line.
  • a contact element establishes electrical contact between the electrical screen and the further conductor.
  • the contact element allows a quick and easy production of the contact between the additional line and the electric screen.
  • the contact element may in particular be a cable lug.
  • a support sleeve which is arranged under the electric umbrella.
  • the support sleeve protects the underlying inner jacket line and the cores embedded in the inner jacket from mechanical damage by a subsequent crimping process.
  • a crimping sleeve tightly surrounds the contact element, whereby the electric shield between the support sleeve and the annular cable lug is clamped.
  • the contact to the electrical Screen is thus achieved by a simple standard crimping process.
  • the retaining cap through which one or more insulated lines and the additional conductor pass, bears markings which visibly identify the individual conductors. For example, in the assembly of the wires in an automobile, the simple identification of the wires of the wire can bring advantages in the production.
  • Fig. 1A shows a line according to the invention, which is designated as a whole by the reference numeral 100.
  • the conduit 100 comprises a shielded conduit 101 and a cylindrical housing 102 for a screen exit.
  • the shielded line 101 enters at a first end face 103 in the housing 102 a.
  • two wires 106, 107 of the line 101 and an additional line 108 emerge from the housing 102.
  • the additional line 108 is connected to the electrical screen 109 (FIG. FIG. 1B ) of the line 101 and forms the Schirmaustechnisch.
  • the electric screen is formed in particular from a wire mesh of copper wires.
  • Fig. 1B shows a cross section through the line 101, which has two wires 106, 107.
  • the wires 106, 107 each comprise an electrical conductor 111, which is surrounded by an insulation 112.
  • the two wires 106, 107 are enclosed by an inner shell 113 surrounded by the electric screen 109.
  • the line 101 has an insulating outer jacket 116.
  • the outer jacket is made of silicone, for example.
  • Fig. 1B is shown between the outer shell 116 and the screen 109 for clarity, a distance 114, which is not present in reality.
  • Fig. 1C the structure of the lines 100 is shown in an exploded view in greater detail.
  • elements are shown further components whose function will be described in more detail below.
  • To these other components includes a support sleeve 117 and a cable lug 118.
  • the electric shield 109 is shown in an expanded state, because in the assembled state of the line 100, the support sleeve 117 is disposed at this point under the electric umbrella 109.
  • a crimp barrel 121 is shown.
  • a first seal 122 and a first retaining cap 123 are on the first end face 103 of the housing 102 is provided.
  • the seal 122 has a central passage opening 124 which bears tightly against the outer jacket of the conduit 101.
  • the first retaining cap 123 has a passage opening 126, which allows passage of the conduit 101 through the retaining cap 123.
  • a hold-down 127, a second seal 128 and a second retaining cap 129 are provided at the opposite second end face 104, where the wires 106, 107 and the line 108 emerge from the housing 102.
  • the second seal 128 has three passage openings 131 for the wires 106, 107 and the additional line 108.
  • the through holes 131 close tightly with the respective insulation of the wires or the additional line.
  • the seals 123 and 128 have a profiled circumferential surface to enhance the sealing action against the housing 102.
  • the seals 123 and 128 are thus adapted and suitable for sealing the interior of the housing 102 against environmental influences, in particular against moisture and dirt
  • the cable lug 118 is shown in an enlarged perspective view.
  • the cable lug 118 has a cylindrical connection region 201, which encloses the support sleeve 117 in the mounting position.
  • the cylindrical connection region 201 is provided with a longitudinal slot 202.
  • the inner diameter of the connection region 201 is selected to be slightly smaller than the outer diameter of the support sleeve 117, so that the cable lug has a resilient seat on the support sleeve 117. This is advantageous in the assembly of the line 100, because the cable lug 118 can be placed on the support sleeve 117, but not simply drops back from the support sleeve 117.
  • the terminal portion 201 merges into an elongated mounting portion 203 provided with two pairs of clamping tabs 204 and 206.
  • the clamping tabs 204 are pressed onto a conductor of the line 108 to make electrical contact.
  • the Clamping tabs 206 are pressed onto the insulation of the line 108 and thus hold the line 108 and form a strain relief.
  • FIG. 2B shows the cable lug 118 with the additional cable 108 installed.
  • a first step by a line 101 in a first portion 301 of the outer shell 116 the electric shield 109 and the inner shell 113 is removed to expose the wires 106, 107.
  • the wire mesh forming the electrical screen 109 is widened so that a collar 303 projecting from the line 101 in the radial direction is formed.
  • the support sleeve 117 is placed on the exposed in the second portion 302 inner shell 113.
  • FIG. 3B It can be seen that the cable lug 118, to which the additional line 108 is connected, is placed on the support sleeve 117. About the cable lug 118, the expanded wire mesh of the electric screen 109 is placed.
  • FIG. 3C With the crimp barrel 121, the in FIG. 3C is pushed from the left over the electric screen 109, the cable lug and the support sleeve 117, the electric shield 109 is pressed or crimped onto the cable lug 118, whereby an electrical connection between the cable lug 118 and the electric shield 109 is made.
  • the contact sleeve 117 during crimping prevents mechanical pressure from being exerted on the inner shell 113 and the cores 106, 107 embedded therein to effectively protect said elements from mechanical damage.
  • Fig. 4A shows how the prepared so far line 101 is inserted into the housing 102.
  • the first seal 122 on the line 101 is pushed and inserted into the housing 102, where the seal on one side of the line 101 and on the other side of the housing 102 seals.
  • the seal 121 is fixed in the housing 102 with the first retaining cap 123.
  • the retaining cap 123 is latched on the housing 102, wherein on the housing requested locking lugs 401 engage in corresponding detent openings 402 in the cap 123. Thereafter, the hold-down 127 is inserted into the still open side of the housing 102.
  • the hold-down 127 has a cylindrical shell 403, which, however, extends only over part of an imaginary circumferential line, whereby a recess 404 is formed in the shell 403.
  • the jacket 403 On one end face, the jacket 403 is provided with a flange 406 which has rectangular grooves 407.
  • the hold-down 127 is inserted into the housing 102 so that the mounting portion 203 of the cable lug 118 comes to lie in the recess 404, while the grooves 407 engage in corresponding guide ribs 408 which are integrally formed on the housing 102 on the inside.
  • the guide ribs 408 terminate in front of the front edge 409 of the housing 102 so that the second seal 128 has a smooth circular bearing surface.
  • Fig. 4B shows the housing 102 with the inserted hold-down in a side view without the second seal 128, which is only then inserted into the housing 102.
  • the passage opening in 131 can be seen in the second seal 128.
  • the second seal 128 seals the wires 106, 107 and the additional line 108 and the housing 102.
  • the second seal 128 rests on the hold-down 127.
  • the second retaining cap 129 is placed and locked on the housing 102, whereby the fully assembled line 100 is formed in Figure 1A is shown.
  • the hold-down 127 presses on the connection portion 201 of the cable lug 118, whereby the line 101 is fixed in the housing.
