Description
OONNECTEUR ELECTRIQUE A ATTRACTION DE CONTACTS PAR FORCE ELECTRO-MAGNETIQUE
La présente invention concerne un dispositif premettant au courant eleetrique de circuler par des contacts à plat maintenus solidairement deux par deux par une force electro-magnétique.ELECTRICAL CONNECTOR WITH ATTRACTION OF CONTACTS BY ELECTRO-MAGNETIC FORCE
The present invention relates to a device premitting electrical current to flow by flat contacts held integrally two by two by an electromagnetic force.
Traditionnellement les contacts des connecteurs existent sous forme de broches mâle-femelle s'insérant l'un dans l'autre, ou lorsqu'il sont dit hermaphrodites ou à plat sont maintenus par des forces mécaniques telles que clips, vis,
Dans tous les cas l'usure est inévitable et oblige l'utitisateur a proceder à un renouvellemnt fréquent de ces connecteurs.Traditionally, the connector contacts exist in the form of male-female pins inserted into each other, or when they are said to be hermaphrodite or flat are held by mechanical forces such as clips, screws,
In any case wear is inevitable and obliges the user to proceed to a frequent renewal of these connectors.
D'autre part en cas de choc ou d'arrachement ce sont généralement les cables que se dessertissent ou se dessoudent de leurs plots, ou bien les broches qui se détériorent ou se tordent, d'où un travail fastidieux de recablage, voire des risques de court-circuits.On the other hand in the event of shock or tearing it is generally the cables which are crimped or unsoldered with their pads, or else the pins which deteriorate or twist, hence a tedious job of rewiring, or even risks. short circuits.
Le dispositif suivant l'invention permet de remédier à ces inconvénients.The device according to the invention overcomes these drawbacks.
Il comporte en effet deux boitiers isolants contenant l'un un ou plusieurs électro-aimants, suivant le nombre de plots nécessaires, l'autre une ou plusieurs plaques métalliques d'un diamètre égal à celui de l'électroaimant lui faisant face lors de la réunion des deux boitiers.It in fact comprises two insulating boxes containing one one or more electromagnets, depending on the number of pads required, the other one or more metal plates with a diameter equal to that of the electromagnet facing it during the meeting of the two boxes.
Chaque boitier contient en outre une plaque isolante support de plots.Each box also contains an insulating stud support plate.
les deux plaques étant rigoureusement symétriques.the two plates being rigorously symmetrical.
Lorsque l'on met en contact les deux boitiers, deux des plots servant à l'alimentation de ltéléctro-aimant, celui-ci entre en action, collant les deux boitiers. I1 n'y a donc aucune usure mécanique. Les électroaimants sont calculés de telle sorte qu'ils puissent se décoller de leurs plaques métalliques à un certain seuil d'arrachement, calculé en fonction des cables utilisés et afin que ceux-ci ne se déssertissent pas.When the two boxes are brought into contact, two of the studs serving to supply the electromagnet, the latter comes into action, bonding the two boxes. There is therefore no mechanical wear. The electromagnets are calculated so that they can be detached from their metal plates at a certain tearing threshold, calculated according to the cables used and so that these do not loosen.
Enfin outre le fait que l'électro-aimnat puisse être interrompu par un bouton poussoir placé sur le corps d'un des boitier et coupant l'alimentation il faut noter qu'une chute brutale de tension ou un arrêt pur et simple du circuit général entraine la scission immédiate des deux boitiers.Finally, in addition to the fact that the electromagnet can be interrupted by a push button placed on the body of one of the boxes and cutting the power supply, it should be noted that a sudden drop in voltage or an outright shutdown of the general circuit leads to the immediate split of the two boxes.
Ce systeme offre donc une sécurité certaine, non négligeable en informatique, notemment, où les chutes de tension ou la remise en route intempestive des consoles, imprimantes, armoires disques peuvent occasionner des dégats ou des risques d'erreurs dans les programmes. This system therefore offers certain security, which is not negligible in IT, in particular, where voltage drops or untimely restarting of consoles, printers, disk cabinets can cause damage or risk of errors in programs.
Selon une variante il est possible de remplacer'les électro-aimants par des aimants permanents. Il n'y a pas alors de scission des deux boitiers en cas de coupyre d'alimentation et de sûrcroit ceux-ci n'ont pas besoin de présenter de détrompeurs. Cette fonction est assurée en effet par la polarité des aimants. En cas d'inversion il y aura répulsion des connecteurs.Alternatively, it is possible to replace the electromagnets with permanent magnets. There is then no split of the two boxes in the event of a power cut and of course they do not need to be polarized. This function is ensured by the polarity of the magnets. In case of inversion there will be repulsion of the connectors.
Selon une forme de réalisation préférentielle, l'un des boitier constitue une cassette s'emboitant dans le deuxième boitier. Celui-ci supporte en buté deux ressorts permettant lors de l'arret de l'électro-aimant une éjection de la cassette. Ce boitier-ci peut alors être une embase soudée sur un circuit imprimé.According to a preferred embodiment, one of the cases constitutes a cassette which fits into the second case. It supports two springs in abutment allowing the cassette to be ejected when the electromagnet stops. This box can then be a base welded to a printed circuit.

La figure 6représente en prespective un connecteur électro-magnétique suivant la forme de réalisation préférentielle.Figure 6 shows in perspective a electromagnetic connector according to the preferred embodiment.
Le dispositif représenté sur la figure 5 comporte deux boitiers (1) dont les dimensions sont variables selon le nombre de plots utilisés. L'on présente face à face ces deux boitiers en respectant le sens imposé par les détrompeurs (9a & 9b). Lorsque les plots alimentés par les cables (iOa & lOb) se touchent l'électro-aimant (ii) adhère à la plaque métallique (12). L'on peut interrompre cette alimentation en faisant pression sur le bouton poussoir (10). Les plots (6) maintenus dans les cylindres (5) par des lamelles d'armet (6a) sont alors parfaitement tenu en contact par les ressorts (8). les cables (4) sont sertis ou soudés sur les cosses (7).The device shown in Figure 5 has two boxes (1) whose dimensions are variable depending on the number of pads used. These two boxes are presented face to face while respecting the direction imposed by the polarizing devices (9a & 9b). When the studs supplied by the cables (iOa & lOb) touch each other the electromagnet (ii) adheres to the metal plate (12). This supply can be interrupted by pressing the push button (10). The studs (6) held in the cylinders (5) by armature strips (6a) are then perfectly held in contact by the springs (8). the cables (4) are crimped or welded to the lugs (7).
Dans la variante illustrée par la figure 1 les électro-aimantsdtont replacés par des aimants permanents (3) et les détrompeurs par de simples guides de protection (2).In the variant illustrated in FIG. 1, the electromagnets are replaced by permanent magnets (3) and the polarizing devices by simple protection guides (2).
Dans la forme de réalisation préférentielle illustrée par la figure 6 les boitiers sont remplacés par des cassettes mâles (la) et femelle (1) s'emboitant l'une dans l'autre. L'évection de la cassette en cas de coupure d'alimentation des électro-aimants se fait par les ressorts (8 & 8a). In the preferred embodiment illustrated in Figure 6 the boxes are replaced by male cassettes (la) and female (1) fitting one into the other. The cassette is removed in the event of the electromagnets being cut off by the springs (8 & 8a).
Les plots sont remplacés, compte tenu de la précision de contact offerte par l'absence de jeux des cassettes emboitées, par des lamelles de cuivre flexibles (15) prenant appui sur des plots fixes (14) répattis sur une plaque isolante (16)
Le dispositif selon l'invention est particuîîèremnt destiné pour des emplois électriques à faible courant (informatique, téléphone,...), mais également dans des emplois électriques à haute et moyenne tension recquérant des précautions particulières (risques d'arrachements fréquents, montages et démontages fréquents...) The studs are replaced, taking into account the contact precision offered by the absence of games of the nested cassettes, by flexible copper strips (15) bearing on fixed studs (14) spread over a insulating plate (16)
The device according to the invention is particularly intended for low current electrical jobs (IT, telephone, ...), but also in high and medium voltage electrical jobs requiring special precautions (risk of frequent tearing, mounting and frequent dismantling ...)
