Definitions

  • the invention relates to an electrical plug connection which has a plug connector and a mating connector assigned to the plug connector as a counterpart, the plug connector being able to be plugged together in one plug direction to produce an electrical plug connection, the plug connector having a first locking device and the mating connector having a second locking device
  • the connector can be fixed to the mating connector by a positive connection of the first locking device to the second locking device and during an unlocking process this fixation can be released by manual actuation of an unlocking element movably attached to the connector or to the mating connector by mechanically opening the unlocking element during manual actuation the first and / or the second locking device acts.
  • a generic electrical connector is from the DE 10 2011 102 715 A1 known. From the DE 10 2012 104 857 A1 an electrical connector is known. From the EP 2 445 056 A1 an electrical connection terminal is known. From the FR 2 489 049 A1 a multi-pole electrical connector with locking is known.
  • the invention has for its object to further develop such an electrical connector with respect to the locking mechanism.
  • the unlocking element is fastened to the plug connector or the mating connector so that it can pivot about a pivot axis, the unlocking element having a manual one on one side of the pivot axis Actuating area, which is set up for manual actuation of the unlocking element and has a protruding actuating nose on the other side of the pivot axis, through which the first and / or the second locking device can be mechanically deflected during the unlocking process.
  • the connector parts can be securely locked to one another with simple handling for releasing the fixation.
  • one-handed operation is possible to release the fixation.
  • the manual actuation area of the unlocking element can optionally be actuated directly manually, for example with a finger, or indirectly via a tool, for example using a screwdriver.
  • an electrical connector can be realized with a small space and can therefore be miniaturized easily.
  • an electrical plug connection also allows a spring-loaded terminal connection to be provided, for example in the plug connector or in the mating plug connector, or in both elements plug connector and mating plug connector.
  • the connector may have one or more plug contacts, e.g. male and / or female plug contacts, also mixed, e.g. in the form of contact pins, contact knives or fork contacts.
  • the mating connector can also have plug contacts which are designed in a manner comparable to the plug contacts of the plug connector, only as a counterpart to each.
  • the unlocking element can be actuated in an actuation direction which is arranged at an angle to the plugging direction of the plug connection. Accordingly, there is an angle between the direction of actuation and the direction of insertion, for example an angle of at least 40 °. The angle can in particular also be an essentially right angle. As a result, the unlocking element can be operated manually in a particularly simple and convenient manner.
  • the plug-in direction of the plug connection defines a direction in which the connector can be plugged together with the mating connector, which is usually one Direction of movement corresponds, in which the mating face of the connector is moved towards the mating face of the mating connector and the connector is then connected to the mating connector.
  • these locking devices can have respective locking elements which are designed as form-fitting counterparts to one another, e.g. in the form of locking elements, locking formations, locking tabs or locking recesses.
  • the connector can be fixed to the mating connector without special manual actuation of one of the locking devices, e.g. characterized in that the first locking device and the second locking device automatically engage in a form-fitting manner when the connector is plugged into the mating connector.
  • an elastic locking element can be automatically deflected when plugged together, so that after the final connection position of the connector on the mating connector has been reached, this elastic locking element can snap back automatically, thereby producing the positive connection of the first locking device with the second locking device in the sense of a latching.
  • At least one housing component of the plug connector or of the mating plug connector can be expanded by the unlocking element during the unlocking process.
  • a locking tab which is arranged on the housing component, can be pried open in the sense of.
  • the unlocking element can therefore be designed like a pivotable lever or a rocker.
  • the unlocking element can have one or more bearing elements, via which a defined bearing axis is defined, which at the same time forms the pivot axis of the unlocking element.
  • laterally protruding bearing journals can be formed on the unlocking element be, which engage in corresponding pin receptacles on the housing component to which the unlocking element is attached.
  • the component of the connector and mating connector that has the unlocking element has at least one spring-loaded terminal connection for connecting an electrical conductor to a clamping point by means of spring force, the spring-loaded terminal connection being actuated by this component from a closed position to an open position is movable. This allows a simple and convenient connection of an electrical conductor and also a secure permanent fixation of the electrical conductor at the terminal point.
  • the other component of the plug connector and mating plug connector which does not have the unlocking element, can also have a spring-loaded terminal connection for clamping an electrical conductor at a clamping point by means of spring force.
  • the closed position of the spring-loaded terminal connection can correspond to a closed position of the actuating element.
  • the open position of the spring-loaded terminal connection can correspond to an open position of the actuating element.
  • the actuator can e.g. be designed as an actuating lever which is pivotally attached to the connector or to the mating connector.
  • the unlocking element in particular the manual actuation area of the unlocking element or a stop area of the unlocking element, forms a mechanical stop for the actuation element in the open position.
  • the stop area can be arranged, for example, on the manual actuation area. In this way, excessive actuation of the actuating element in the direction of the open position is counteracted, without additional components being required for such a path limitation.
  • the unlocking element is blocked by the actuating element against manual actuation when the actuating element is in the open position.
  • This has the advantage that, when the actuating element is in the open position, the plug-in connector and mating connector components cannot be detached from one another. To do this, the actuating element must first be moved in the direction of the closed position. The blocking of the unlocking element can already be released before the manual actuating element has completely reached the closed position.
  • the unlocking element is arranged essentially centrally in the region of plug contacts of the plug connector and / or the mating plug connector.
  • the unlocking element can be arranged at a central point of the connector or the mating connector, so that it can be easily grasped when the connector or the mating connector is gripped and can be actuated with one hand.
  • the spring-loaded terminal connection has a busbar and a clamping spring, the clamping spring being fastened to the busbar in a self-supporting manner.
  • an easy to manufacture and easy to assemble spring clamp connection can be provided. Loads on surrounding components, e.g. on an insulating housing, can be minimized.
  • the busbar and / or the clamping spring is formed in one piece with at least part of a plug connection contact of the plug connector or mating plug connector.
  • the plug connection contact can be part of the component of the plug connector and mating plug connector that has the unlocking element.
  • the plug connection contact can also be provided in a manner which is favorable in terms of production technology.
  • a separate installation is not necessary since the plug-in connection contact is already part of the busbar and / or the clamping spring. It the entire plug connection contact can also be formed in one piece with the busbar or the clamping spring.
  • the direction of insertion of the spring-loaded terminal connection is essentially parallel or identical to the direction of insertion. In this way, a compact, small-sized plug connection can be realized.
  • the clamping spring has a clamping leg for clamping an electrical conductor, with a spring arch adjoining the clamping leg and a contact leg attached to the spring arch, which is fastened to the busbar.
  • the clamping spring can have a loop shape, for example.
  • the spring arch points away from the contact leg against the direction of insertion of the conductor. If an electrical conductor is thus plugged into the spring-loaded terminal connection in the direction of the conductor insertion, it is guided in the direction of the spring arch and is finally guided past the spring arch.
  • the spring arch can then be located in a region between a grip region of the actuating element on which the actuating element is to be actuated manually, e.g. a lever handle, and the inserted electrical conductor.
  • the contact leg is bent several times with at least two areas bent in opposite directions of bending. This also promotes the compact design of the electrical connector. It is possible to accommodate lever actuation in the housing of the connector or of the mating connector with a compact design.
  • the contact leg in particular the region of the contact leg that is bent several times, extends through a free space surrounded by the actuating element.
  • the actuating element can, for example, engage around the clamping spring with cheeks extending laterally from the clamping spring.
  • the actuating element can be compared to the force of the clamping leg on the busbar and / or a part of the clamping spring, e.g. an extended area of the system leg, e.g. by the side cheeks resting on a corresponding support point on the busbar and / or part of the clamping spring.
  • the indefinite term “a” is not to be understood as a numerical word. So if e.g. When one speaks of a component, this should be interpreted in the sense of "at least one component”. Insofar as angles are given in degrees, they refer to a circular dimension of 360 degrees (360 °).
  • the connector 1 has a housing 2, e.g. an insulating housing.
  • the housing 2 has a conductor insertion opening 20.
  • An electrical conductor can be inserted through the conductor insertion opening 20 in a conductor insertion direction L and clamped onto a clamping point, which will be described below.
  • the connector 1 also has a spring-loaded terminal connection with a busbar 3 and a clamping spring 4, which are arranged as an electrical contact insert in the housing 2.
  • the clamping spring 4 has a contact leg 40 which is fastened with an end section 41 of the busbar 3, which end section extends essentially vertically to the direction of insertion L of the conductor, to a holding section 31 which also extends essentially vertically to the direction of insertion of the conductor L. On in this way, the clamping spring 4 is fixed to the busbar 3.
  • the contact leg 40 extends over a region 42 bent several times to a spring arch 43, to which a clamping leg 44 of the clamping spring 4 is connected.
  • the clamping leg 44 ends with a clamping tongue 45 which, together with a conductor connection area 30 of the busbar 3, forms a clamping point for clamping an electrical conductor.
  • the connector 1 also has an actuating element 5 in the form of a pivotable actuating lever.
  • the actuating element 5 has a grip area 50, on which a user can manually actuate the actuating element 5.
  • the actuating element 5 serves to open the clamping point in order to facilitate the insertion of an electrical conductor or to enable the removal of an electrical conductor that has already been clamped on.
  • the actuating element 5 has a spring follower 52 which can press against a region of the clamping leg 44 and in this way can deflect the clamping leg 44 including the clamping tongue 45.
  • the Figure 1 shows the spring in solid lines with the clamping point closed. In this case, the actuating element is also in the closed position, which is also shown in solid lines.
  • the Figure 1 also shows the actuator in the open position, which is shown with dash-dotted lines.
  • the spring arm 52 deflects the clamping leg 44 upward, which is identified by the reference symbol 44a and the representation of the clamping leg in broken lines.
  • the grip area 50 is represented by the reference symbol 50a.
  • the connector 1 also has, in a housing region 21 projecting in the direction of the mating connector 10, a plug-in contact 33, which can be implemented, for example, by two fork legs and accordingly forms a fork contact.
  • the fork legs of the plug-in contact 33 can be formed in one piece with the busbar 3, for example by connecting the fork legs 33 to one another via a vertical section 32 made of the busbar material and in turn connecting them to the holding section 31.
  • the mating connector 10 has its own housing 11, e.g. made of insulating material.
  • the mating connector 10 has a plug connection contact 12 which is designed as a counterpart to the plug connection contact 33, e.g. as knife contact or as pin contact.
  • This plug connection contact 12 can be inserted into the plug connector 1 through an insertion opening 22 in the housing region 21 and is received between the fork legs of the plug connection contact 33.
  • the connector 1 can accordingly be plugged together in a plug-in direction S with the mating connector 10.
  • a positive connection is provided via a first locking device 23 of the connector and a second locking device 13 of the mating connector.
  • the first locking device 23 can positively engage behind the second locking device 13 or snap behind it (in the sense of locking elements).
  • the area of the housing 11 of the mating connector 10 on which the second locking device 13 is arranged can be mechanically deflected by means of an unlocking element 6, to the extent that the positive connection between the first locking device 23 and the second locking device 13 is canceled.
  • the second locking device 13 can be arranged, for example, on a flexible tab of the housing 11.
  • the unlocking element 6 is fastened to the plug connector 1, for example on the outside of the housing 2.
  • the unlocking element 6 is designed as a pivotable unlocking element which can be rotated about an axis of rotation and which is movable in a manner similar to a rocker.
  • the unlocking element 6 has a manual actuation area 60, which serves for the manual actuation of the unlocking element 6.
  • the unlocking element 6 is rotatably mounted on the housing 2 via a bearing axis, for example in the form of laterally projecting bearing pins 62.
  • the unlocking element 6 ends with a protruding actuating lug 61 which engages under a part of the housing 11 of the mating connector 10. If the unlocking element 6 is actuated on the manual actuation area 60 in an actuation direction B, it executes a clockwise movement, which is limited by a stop surface 24 of the housing 2. Here, the actuation nose 61 lifts the part of the housing 11 which has the second locking device 13, so that the fixation is released.
  • the unlocking element 6 has a stop element 63, which serves as a stop and travel limit for the actuating element 5.
  • the actuating element 5 can only be moved in the direction of the open position until it comes into contact with the stop element 63.
  • the actuating element 5, in particular its grip area 50, in the open position means that the unlocking element 6 cannot be actuated for an unlocking process because the stop element 63 comes to rest on the actuating element 5 and thus a further movement of the unlocking element 6 blocked.
