Definitions
- the present invention relates to an outer conductor arrangement and a production method for an outer conductor arrangement.
- Connectors are known, for example, through the "PosiBand” plug from Positronic, both with open entry and with closed entry.
- a connector with an open entry is in Figure 3 shown.
- Such connectors have a front edge on the interface side that is not closed all the way round. As a rule, interruptions in the leading edge are formed by contact tabs. Connectors with an open entry can better compensate for manufacturing tolerances and reduce the insertion forces required for mating.
- a connector with a closed entry is in Figure 4 shown.
- Such connectors have a closed front edge on the interface side.
- Contact lugs can be surrounded by a housing.
- Connectors with a closed entry prevent the connector from being damaged by mechanical forces, for example by attempting to plug in a wrong mating connector. They also lead to significantly increased insertion forces.
- FIG 5 an outer conductor 90 of a high-voltage (HV) connector, which is designed for frequencies in the megahertz range, is shown.
- the outer conductor comprises a closed inlet 91 and resilient contact tabs 92 with contact points 93 which are located behind the closed inlet.
- resonances occur on the outer conductor due to capacitances between the plug partners.

- the idea on which the present invention is based is to arrange ends of contact tabs of an outer conductor behind an outer conductor ring in such a way that the contact tabs can be flexibly deformed to ensure low insertion forces and at the same time to create a closed entry through an outer conductor ring.
- the contact tabs that are not connected to the outer conductor ring have the same tolerance-compensating properties as the contact tabs according to FIG. 7.
- a ring is understood to mean a rotating object. Its cross-sectional area can be round, oval, elliptical or the like, among other things.

- contact tabs are only connected to the outer conductor base, they have resilient properties.
- the retaining tabs can be designed in such a way that their rigidity is greater than the rigidity of the contact tabs that are not connected.
- the outer conductor ring is connected to several tabs, in particular to two tabs on the outer conductor base body, this has a lower resilience than the contact tabs that are not connected to the outer conductor ring.
- a resilient contact tab is provided in the retaining tab.
- the outer conductor ring has no bulge or indentation.
- the outer conductor ring is designed to protect contact tabs from the effects of mechanical forces. This is necessary if a connector should also be able to be plugged in from an oblique direction or if it should be able to withstand the effects of forces from an oblique direction in the plugged-in state without damaging the outer conductor. According to one embodiment of the present invention, this protection of the contact tabs can be ensured by a closed entry of the outer conductor.
- This embodiment of the present invention thus solves the problem of reducing insertion forces and at the same time increasing the stability of a connector.
- the optimization of these two properties works in opposite directions, i.e. a desired increase in stability leads to an undesired increase in the insertion force and vice versa.

Steckverbinder sind beispielsweise durch den Stecker "PosiBand" von Positronic sowohl mit offenem Eintritt (englisch "open entry") als auch mit geschlossenem Eintritt (englisch "closed entry") bekannt.Connectors are known, for example, through the "PosiBand" plug from Positronic, both with open entry and with closed entry.
Ein Steckverbinder mit einem offenen Eintritt ist in
Ein Steckverbinder mit einem geschlossenen Eintritt ist in
Versuche des Standes der Technik zeigen, dass die Optimierung einer der Parameter EMV-Dichtigkeit, Steckkräfte und Stabilität und Impedanzoptimierung eines Steckverbinders im Hochfrequenzbereich einander entgegenstehen. Beispielsweise ist dies in bestehenden Produkten der Anmelderin, Rosenberger Hochfrequenztechnik GmbH & Co. KG, erkennbar. Die Figur 9 zeigt ein solches Produkt.Tests of the prior art show that the optimization of one of the parameters EMC tightness, plug-in forces and stability and impedance optimization of a connector in the high-frequency range contradict each other. For example, this can be seen in existing products from the applicant, Rosenberger Hochfrequenztechnik GmbH & Co. KG. Figure 9 shows such a product.
In
Dies ist ein Zustand, den es zu verbessern gilt.This is a condition that needs to be improved.
Vor diesem Hintergrund liegt der vorliegenden Erfindung die Aufgabe zugrunde, einen Steckverbinder mit einem geschlossenen Eintritt und verbesserten Impedanzeigenschaften anzugeben.Against this background, the present invention is based on the object of specifying a connector with a closed inlet and improved impedance properties.
Erfindungsgemäß wird diese Aufgabe durch eine Außenleiteranordnung mit den Merkmalen des Patentanspruchs 1 gelöst.According to the invention, this object is achieved by an outer conductor arrangement having the features of claim 1.
Demgemäß ist vorgesehen:
eine Außenleiteranordnung für einen Steckverbinder aufweisend einen Außenleitergrundkörper und einen Außenleiterring, wobei der Außenleitergrundkörper mehrere Kontaktlaschen aufweist, wobei sich der Außenleiterring an einem interfaceseitigen Ende des Außenleitergrundkörpers anschließt, an wenigstens einem Anbindungsbereich mittels einer Haltelasche an den Außenleitergrundkörper angebunden ist und von geschlossener Struktur ist, um einen geschlossenen Eintritt der Außenleiteranordnung zu bilden, wobei Kontaktlaschen vorgesehen sind, die nicht an den Außenleiterring angebunden sind, wobei zwischen dem Außenleiterring und dem Außenleitergrundkörper ein Durchmessersprung ausgebildet ist, wobei der Durchmesser des Außenleitergrundkörpers größer ist als der Durchmesser des Außenleiterrings, wobei wenigstens eine Kontaktlasche einen Anbindungsbereich aufweist, indem die Kontaktlasche als Haltelasche ausgebildet ist, an welcher der Außenleiterring angebunden ist, wobei die Haltelasche eine federnde Kontaktlasche in der Haltelasche aufweist.Accordingly, it is provided:
an outer conductor arrangement for a connector having an outer conductor base body and an outer conductor ring, the outer conductor base body having several contact lugs, the outer conductor ring being connected to an interface-side end of the outer conductor base body, being connected to the outer conductor base body at at least one connection area by means of a retaining lug and being of a closed structure in order to to form a closed entry of the outer conductor arrangement, wherein contact lugs are provided which are not connected to the outer conductor ring, wherein a diameter jump is formed between the outer conductor ring and the outer conductor base body, the diameter of the outer conductor base body being larger than the diameter of the outer conductor ring, with at least one contact tab has a connection area in that the contact tab is designed as a holding tab to which the outer conductor ring is connected, the holding tab being a fed has erde contact tab in the retaining tab.
Die der vorliegenden Erfindung zugrunde liegende Idee besteht darin, Enden von Kontaktlaschen eines Außenleiters so hinter einem Außenleiterring anzuordnen, dass die Kontaktlaschen flexibel verformbar sind, um niedrige Steckkräfte zu gewährleisten, und gleichzeitig einen geschlossenen Eintritt durch einen Außenleiterring zu schaffen.The idea on which the present invention is based is to arrange ends of contact tabs of an outer conductor behind an outer conductor ring in such a way that the contact tabs can be flexibly deformed to ensure low insertion forces and at the same time to create a closed entry through an outer conductor ring.
Dementsprechend weisen die nicht an den Außenleiterring angebundenen Kontaktlaschen dieselben toleranzausgleichenden Eigenschaften auf, wie die Kontaktlaschen gemäß Figur 7.Accordingly, the contact tabs that are not connected to the outer conductor ring have the same tolerance-compensating properties as the contact tabs according to FIG. 7.
In dieser Patentanmeldung wird unter einem Ring ein umlaufender Gegenstand verstanden. Seine Querschnittsfläche kann unter anderem rund, oval, ellipsenförmig oder dergleichen sein.In this patent application, a ring is understood to mean a rotating object. Its cross-sectional area can be round, oval, elliptical or the like, among other things.
Erfindungsgemäß weist die Außenleiteranordnung zwischen dem Außenleitergrundkörper und dem Außenleiterring einen Durchmessersprung nach innen auf. Durchmessersprünge im Außenleiter ermöglichen eine Anpassung der Impedanz.According to the invention, the outer conductor arrangement has an inward diameter jump between the outer conductor base body and the outer conductor ring. Jumps in diameter in the outer conductor allow the impedance to be adjusted.
Erfindungsgemäß ist wenigstens eine Kontaktlasche als Haltelasche, mit welcher der Außenleiterring verbunden ist, ausgebildet. Auf diese Weise kann der Außenleiterring besonders einfach und sicher an dem Außenleitergrundkörper befestigt werden.According to the invention, at least one contact tab is designed as a retaining tab to which the outer conductor ring is connected. In this way, the outer conductor ring can be attached to the outer conductor base body in a particularly simple and secure manner.
Sind Kontaktlaschen lediglich an den Außenleitergrundkörper angebunden, weisen diese federnde Eigenschaften auf. Die Haltelaschen können derart beschaffen sein, dass ihre Steifigkeit größer ist, als die Steifigkeit der nicht angebundenen Kontaktlaschen.If contact tabs are only connected to the outer conductor base, they have resilient properties. The retaining tabs can be designed in such a way that their rigidity is greater than the rigidity of the contact tabs that are not connected.
Ist der Außenleiterring an mehreren Laschen, insbesondere an zwei Laschen an dem Außenleitergrundkörper angebunden, weist dieser eine geringere Federfähigkeit auf, als die Kontaktlaschen, die nicht an den Außenleiterring angebunden sind.If the outer conductor ring is connected to several tabs, in particular to two tabs on the outer conductor base body, this has a lower resilience than the contact tabs that are not connected to the outer conductor ring.
Dabei ist es auch vorgesehen, dass in der Haltelasche eine federnde Kontaktlasche vorgesehen ist.It is also provided that a resilient contact tab is provided in the retaining tab.
Vorteilhafte Ausgestaltungen und Weiterbildungen ergeben sich aus den weiteren Unteransprüchen sowie aus der Beschreibung unter Bezugnahme auf die Figuren der Zeichnung.Advantageous refinements and developments emerge from the further subclaims and from the description with reference to the figures of the drawing.
Es versteht sich, dass die voranstehend genannten und die nachstehend noch zu erläuternden Merkmale nicht nur in der jeweils angegebenen Kombination, sondern auch in anderen Kombinationen oder in Alleinstellung verwendbar sind, ohne den Rahmen der vorliegenden Erfindung zu verlassen.It goes without saying that the features mentioned above and those yet to be explained below can be used not only in the respectively specified combination, but also in other combinations or on their own, without departing from the scope of the present invention.
Insbesondere kann vorgesehen sein, dass der Außenleiterring keine Ausbuchtung oder Einbuchtung aufweist.In particular, it can be provided that the outer conductor ring has no bulge or indentation.
Gemäß einer weiter bevorzugten Ausführungsform der Erfindung ist der Außenleiterring eingerichtet, Kontaktlaschen vor mechanischen Krafteinflüssen zu schützen. Dies ist erforderlich, wenn ein Steckverbinder auch aus einer schrägen Richtung steckbar sein soll oder in gestecktem Zustand Krafteinwirkungen aus einer schrägen Richtung ohne Beschädigung des Außenleiters standhalten soll. Gemäß einer Ausführungsform der vorliegenden Erfindung kann dieser Schutz der Kontaktlaschen durch einen geschlossenen Eintritt des Außenleiters gewährleistet werden.According to a further preferred embodiment of the invention, the outer conductor ring is designed to protect contact tabs from the effects of mechanical forces. This is necessary if a connector should also be able to be plugged in from an oblique direction or if it should be able to withstand the effects of forces from an oblique direction in the plugged-in state without damaging the outer conductor. According to one embodiment of the present invention, this protection of the contact tabs can be ensured by a closed entry of the outer conductor.
Diese Ausführungsform der vorliegenden Erfindung löst somit das Problem, Steckkräfte zu reduzieren und gleichzeitig die Stabilität eines Steckverbinders zu erhöhen. Die Optimierung dieser beiden Eigenschaften ist allerdings in der Praxis gegenläufig, d.h. eine gewünschte Steigerung der Stabilität führt zu einer ungewünschten Steigerung der Steckkräfte und andersherum.This embodiment of the present invention thus solves the problem of reducing insertion forces and at the same time increasing the stability of a connector. In practice, however, the optimization of these two properties works in opposite directions, i.e. a desired increase in stability leads to an undesired increase in the insertion force and vice versa.
Vorteilhaft ist es, wenn eine Haupterstreckungsrichtung der Haltelasche in Umlaufrichtung des Außenleiterhalterings verläuft und/oder wenn die Haupterstreckungsrichtung der Haltelasche senkrecht zu der Haupterstreckungsrichtung der Kontaktlaschen verläuft.It is advantageous if a main direction of extent of the holding tab runs in the circumferential direction of the outer conductor holding ring and / or if the main direction of extent of the holding tab runs perpendicular to the main direction of extent of the contact tabs.
Besonders vorteilhaft an dem erfindungsgemäßen Steckverbinder ist, dass dieser auch durch ein Stanzverfahren samt der Durchmessersprünge fertigbar ist.What is particularly advantageous about the connector according to the invention is that it can also be manufactured by a stamping process, including the diameter jumps.
Wird ein erfindungsgemäßer Steckverbinder durch ein Stanzverfahren gefertigt, können Durchmessersprünge der Haltelaschen erzeugt werden.If a connector according to the invention is manufactured by a stamping process, jumps in the diameter of the retaining tabs can be produced.
Gemäß einer weiter bevorzugten Ausführungsform der Erfindung ist der Außenleiterring mit dem Außenleitergrundkörper mittels eines Fügeverfahrens, z.B. mittels Schweißen, verbunden. Alternativ können der Außenleiterring und der Außenleitergrundkörper aus einem zusammenhängenden Teil gefertigt sein.According to a further preferred embodiment of the invention, the outer conductor ring is connected to the outer conductor base body by means of a joining process, e.g. by means of welding. Alternatively, the outer conductor ring and the outer conductor base body can be manufactured from a coherent part.
Gemäß einer weiter bevorzugten Ausführungsform der Erfindung weist der Außenleitergrundkörper zwei Haltelaschen auf. Die Haltelaschen können gerade oder gebogen sein.According to a further preferred embodiment of the invention, the outer conductor base body has two retaining tabs. The retaining tabs can be straight or curved.
Gemäß einer bevorzugten Ausführungsform weist der Außenleiterring einen Schutzkragen, welcher in radialer Richtung gegenüber freien Enden der Kontaktlaschen hervorsteht, auf, wobei der Schutzkragen eingerichtet ist, die Kontaktlaschen des Außenleitergrundkörpers vor mechanischen Krafteinwirkungen zu schützen. Dabei kann vorgesehen sein, dass der Schutzkragen verhindert, dass die Kontaktlaschen durch eintretende Gegenstände, beispielsweise Werkzeuge, beschädigt werden. Der Schutzkragen kann in einer Ausführungsform als senkrechte Wandung, die von dem Außenleiterring absteht, ausgebildet sein oder als gebogene Lasche, welche die vorderen Enden der Kontaktlaschen verdeckt.According to a preferred embodiment, the outer conductor ring has a protective collar which protrudes in the radial direction from the free ends of the contact lugs, the protective collar being designed to protect the contact lugs of the outer conductor base body from the effects of mechanical forces. It can be provided that the protective collar prevents the contact tabs from being damaged by objects such as tools. In one embodiment, the protective collar can be designed as a vertical wall that protrudes from the outer conductor ring, or as a curved tab which covers the front ends of the contact tabs.
Gemäß einer weiter bevorzugten Ausführungsform weisen die Kontaktlaschen jeweils einen erhöhten Kontaktpunkt zur Kontaktierung eines Gegensteckverbinders auf. Somit erfahren die Kontaktlaschen in gestecktem Zustand eine Vorspannung, wodurch sich der Kontakt verbessert. Auf diese Weise wird die Schirmung des Steckverbinders verbessert. Um Steckkräfte zu reduzieren, ist es möglich, diese Kontaktpunkte in axialer Richtung versetzt anzuordnen.According to a further preferred embodiment, the contact tabs each have a raised contact point for contacting a mating connector. Thus, the contact tabs experience a pretension in the plugged-in state, which improves the contact. In this way, the shielding of the connector is improved. In order to reduce insertion forces, it is possible to arrange these contact points offset in the axial direction.
Gemäß einer weiter bevorzugten Ausführungsform sind der Außenleiterring und der Außenleitergrundkörper einteilig ausgebildet.According to a further preferred embodiment, the outer conductor ring and the outer conductor base body are formed in one piece.
Gemäß einer bevorzugten Ausführungsform der Erfindung ist der Außenleitergrundkörper als Stanzteil ausgebildet. Stanzteile sind auf besonders kostengünstige Weise herstellbar. Insbesondere kann die Produktion von Stanzteilen hochautomatisiert erfolgen. Allerdings ist das Erzeugen von Durchmessersprüngen in Stanzverfahren für Steckverbinder mit einem geschlossenen Eintritt nur in Verbindung mit anderen mechanischen Nachteilen wie hohen Steckkräften oder niedrigen Kontaktkräften möglich.According to a preferred embodiment of the invention, the outer conductor base body is designed as a stamped part. Stamped parts can be produced in a particularly cost-effective manner. In particular, the production of stamped parts can be carried out in a highly automated manner. However, the creation of jumps in diameter in punching processes for connectors with a closed entry only possible in connection with other mechanical disadvantages such as high insertion forces or low contact forces.
