Definitions

  • the present invention relates to an outer conductor arrangement and a manufacturing method for an outer conductor arrangement.
  • Connectors are known, for example, through the "PosiBand" connector from Positronic, both with an open entry and with a closed entry.
  • a connector with an open entry is in Figure 3 shown.
  • Such connectors have an interface-side front edge that is not closed all around. As a rule, interruptions in the front edge are formed by contact tabs.
  • Connectors with an open entry can better compensate for manufacturing tolerances and reduce the mating 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 tabs can be surrounded by a housing.
  • Plug connectors with a closed entry prevent the connector from being damaged by mechanical forces, for example by attempting to plug in an incorrect mating connector. They also lead to significantly increased insertion forces.
  • FIG. 5 shows an outer conductor 90 of a high-voltage (HV) plug, which is designed for frequencies in the megahertz range.
  • the outer conductor includes a closed entry 91 and resilient contact tabs 92 with contact points 93 located behind the closed entry.
  • resonances occur on the outer conductor due to capacitances between the plug-in partners.
  • the US 20140364013 A1 and the DE 202013001452 U1 show an outer conductor arrangement for a connector having an outer conductor base body and an outer conductor ring, the outer conductor base body having a plurality of contact tabs, the outer conductor ring connecting 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 tab and of a closed structure is to form a closed entry of the outer conductor arrangement, with contact tabs being provided which are not connected to the outer conductor ring.
  • EP 0 476 848 A1 shows an object according to the preamble of patent claim 1.
  • the present invention is based on the object of specifying a connector with a closed entry and improved impedance properties.
  • an outer conductor arrangement for a connector having an outer conductor base body and an outer conductor ring, the outer conductor base body having a plurality of contact tabs, the outer conductor ring connecting to an interface-side end of the outer conductor base body, being connected to the outer conductor base body by means of a retaining tab at at least one connection area and having a closed structure to form a closed inlet of the outer conductor arrangement, with contact tabs being provided which are not connected to the outer conductor ring, with a diameter jump being 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 which the contact tab is designed as a holding tab to which the outer conductor ring is connected, the holding tab has a resilient contact tab in the holding tab.
  • the idea underlying the present invention is to arrange ends of contact tabs of an outer conductor behind an outer conductor ring in such a way that the contact tabs are flexibly deformable in order 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 Figure 7.
  • a ring is understood to mean a rotating object. Its cross-sectional area can be, among other things, round, oval, elliptical or the like.
  • the outer conductor arrangement has an inward diameter jump between the outer conductor base body and the outer conductor ring. Diameter jumps in the outer conductor allow the impedance to be adjusted.
  • At least one contact tab is designed as a holding tab to which the outer conductor ring is connected.
  • the outer conductor ring can be attached particularly easily and securely to the outer conductor base body.
  • contact tabs are only connected to the external conductor base body, they have resilient properties.
  • the retaining tabs can be designed in such a way that their rigidity is greater than the stiffness of the unconnected contact tabs.
  • the outer conductor ring is connected to several tabs, in particular to two tabs, on the outer conductor base body, it has a lower spring capacity than the contact tabs that are not connected to the outer conductor ring.
  • a resilient contact tab is provided in the holding tab.
  • the outer conductor ring has no bulge or indentation.
  • the outer conductor ring is designed to protect contact tabs from mechanical force influences. This is necessary if a connector is to be able to be plugged in from an oblique direction or if it is to withstand forces from an oblique direction when plugged in without damaging the outer conductor. According to an embodiment of the present invention, this protection of the contact tabs be ensured by a closed entry of the external 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 plug connector.
  • the optimization of these two properties is in opposite directions in practice, i.e. a desired increase in stability leads to an undesirable increase in insertion forces and vice versa.
  • a main direction of extension of the holding tab runs in the circumferential direction of the outer conductor holding ring and/or if the main direction of extension of the holding tab runs perpendicular to the main direction of extension of the contact tabs.
  • the connector according to the invention can also be manufactured using a stamping process including the jumps in diameter.
  • a connector according to the invention is manufactured using a stamping process, jumps in diameter of the retaining tabs can be produced.
  • the outer conductor ring is connected to the outer conductor base body by means of a joining process, for example by welding.
  • the outer conductor ring and the outer conductor base body can be made from a coherent part.
  • the outer conductor base body has two retaining tabs.
  • the retaining tabs can be straight or curved.
  • the outer conductor ring has a protective collar which protrudes in the radial direction relative to free ends of the contact tabs, the protective collar being designed to protect the contact tabs of the outer conductor base body from mechanical forces. It can be provided that the protective collar prevents the contact tabs from being damaged by incoming objects, such as tools.
  • the protective collar can be designed as a vertical wall that projects from the outer conductor ring or as a curved tab that covers the front ends of the contact tabs.
  • the contact tabs each have a raised contact point for contacting a mating connector. This means that the contact tabs are pre-tensioned when plugged in, 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.
  • the outer conductor ring and the outer conductor base body are formed in one piece.
  • the outer conductor base body is designed as a stamped part.
  • Stamped parts can be produced in a particularly cost-effective manner.
  • the production of stamped parts can be carried out in a highly automated manner.
  • creating diameter jumps in stamping processes for plug connectors with a closed entry is only possible in conjunction with other mechanical disadvantages such as high insertion forces or low contact forces.
  • Figure 1 shows a schematic view of an external conductor arrangement in the unassembled state according to the prior art.
  • the outer conductor arrangement according to Figure 1 differs from the outer conductor arrangement 100 according to Figure 2 in that the outer conductor arrangement 100 has a resilient contact tab in the holding tab.
  • the Figures 1 and 2 are described comprehensively and coherently below with regard to functionally identical features. Accordingly includes the outer conductor arrangement according to Figure 1 the outer conductor base body and the outer conductor ring.
  • the outer conductor assembly is designed to accommodate one or more inner conductors and one or more insulating parts to provide a coaxial, twinaxial or triaxial connector.
  • the outer conductor base body includes several contact tabs on its top and bottom sides and a holding tab on the right and left sides, which is designed as a contact tab.
  • the contact tab is slightly larger than the contact tabs and therefore stiffer than the contact tabs.
  • the outer conductor ring is also formed on the contact tabs 203, which additionally contributes to increased rigidity of the contact tabs compared to the contact tabs.
  • the contact tabs each have a contact point in a front end region.
  • the contact point is designed as an elevation on the contact tabs and, when plugged in, contacts the outer conductor of a mating connector, which is plugged in with an outer conductor arrangement. This ensures electromagnetic shielding on the top and bottom of the outer conductor arrangement of inner conductors (not shown) guided in the outer conductor base body through the outer conductor base body.
  • the contact tabs 203 also each have a contact point 205.
  • the contact point 205 is formed on a spring tab 207 in the contact tab 203. In this way it is ensured that the outer conductor arrangement 100 also provides electromagnetic shielding on the sides of the outer conductor arrangement.
  • outer conductor ring is connected to the outer conductor base body via a weld seam.
  • the outer conductor base body and the outer conductor ring can be formed in one piece.
  • the outer conductor ring includes the protective collar, which protects the ends of the contact tabs from the effects of foreign bodies.
