Definitions

  • the invention relates to a connector according to the preamble of independent claim 1 and further, the invention of a connector according to the preamble of the independent claim 1 1 is made.
  • Such connectors and mating connectors are used to establish an electrical and mechanical connection between two electrical leads or an electrical lead and a device.
  • Such connectors and mating connectors are used to establish an electrical and mechanical connection between two electrical leads or an electrical lead and a device.
  • heavy connectors are required, which are protected by the housing against environmental influences.
  • the basic structure of connector and mating connector may be substantially identical and differ only in the design of their electrical contacts for making the electrical connection.
  • the designs for the connector thus apply accordingly for the mating connector.
  • the publication WO 201 1/069522 A1 discloses a system connector which receives plug-in modules with electrical contacts held therein.
  • the plug-in modules are inserted vertically into a region of a holding frame and then laterally displaced and held by 90 ° in the holding frame.
  • German Patent and Trademark Office has in the priority application for the present application, in addition to the above, the following prior art research: DE 10 2009 055 925 A1 and
  • the object of the invention is to present a connector which is easy to handle.
  • the invention relates to a connector for mechanical and electrical connection to a corresponding mating connector, comprising a housing and a protective conductor bridge.
  • the housing has at least one connection region for connection to the plug insert, wherein the plug insert is held on the at least one connection region.
  • the connection area and the housing are made in one piece with each other.
  • the protective conductor bridge can be inserted from above into the housing. This makes it possible to mount a plug insert from the plug side and from the connection side.
  • the connector and the mating connector may be identical.
  • the connector can be provided both cable connector for connection to a cable, or as Anba connector for mounting on a device wall.
  • the connector consists of a housing which serves to receive a plug insert.
  • the plug insert is provided for electrical contacting with a corresponding plug insert of the mating plug connector.
  • a protective conductor bridge is provided in the connector, which serves for electrical connection of the protective conductor (PE contacts) of the plug insert.
  • the protective conductor bridge according to the invention can be inserted from above into the housing. This offers the advantage that the mechanical stability between housing and protective conductor bridge is measurably greater than when the protective conductor bridge is inserted laterally into the housing.
  • the at least one connection region is designed to produce a screw connection with the plug insert.
  • This means that the connection area is designed such that it connects to the plug insert by means of a screw connection. can go.
  • the plug insert can be securely attached to the housing.
  • the at least one connection region has a through-hole.
  • a screw can be used for fastening.
  • the through hole of the connecting region has an internal thread. This is located on the inside of the through hole.
  • a screw sleeve is inserted into the housing in the connection area. This screw is inserted against rotation in the connection area. A screw with which the plug insert is fastened to the housing can thus be screwed into the screw sleeve in the connection area.
  • the screw sleeve is made of metal. This ensures a secure, stable attachment and screw connection.
  • the protective conductor bridge has at least one tab with at least one angled portion.
  • the tab has two bends. The bend has approximately a right angle to the tab. If there is more than one bend, the bends always point in the same direction.
  • the bend has a through hole, wherein the through hole is circularly symmetrical to the through hole of the connecting region.
  • the at least one tab of the protective conductor bridge is arranged in a slot in the housing. In the slot, the tab is perpendicular to the through hole of the connection area. The bend is parallel to the through hole of the connection area.
  • the through holes can be aligned flush, circular symmetry.
  • the protective conductor bridge is made of an electrically conductive material.
  • the protective conductor bridge is made in one piece from metal, preferably from a metal sheet. This is particularly flexible, easy to work with and inexpensive to manufacture.
  • the sheet metal can be machined in stamping and bending technology.
  • the housing has at least one locking lug for fixing the protective conductor bridge.
  • the locking lug serves as an additional stabilization and provisional fixation possibility for the protective conductor bridge, in particular for the simplification of the assembly.
  • the housing is a housing made of plastic.
  • a holding frame for receiving a plug insert in the housing can be used.
  • the holding frame is fixed to the housing.
  • the use of a holding frame is advantageous if the housing is a so-called attachment housing.
  • the holding frame is suitable for receiving the protective conductor bridge. He has for at least one integral connection area. This corresponds in its shape and appearance. Design the connection area of the housing.
  • the connecting portion of the holding frame is an extension of the connecting portion of the housing.
  • the holding frame is made of plastic. If a holding frame is used with the housing, it also has corresponding through holes for the connection areas and corresponding slots. As a result, the protective conductor bridge according to the invention can also be used correspondingly with a holding frame, if this is necessary.
  • the present invention solves the problem of the invention by a protective conductor bridge, which is easy to mount from above into the housing of a connector.
  • the protective conductor bridge ensures high mechanical stability, especially with regard to the insertion and removal forces. Furthermore, it allows a simple, fast and inexpensive installation.
