Abstract

An electrical connector includes a wire connecting portion (12) of sheet metal formed into channel section, the channel walls being provided with axial extensions (16, 16') bent inwardly towards each other so that their free, opposed edges define between them a wire receiving slot (18). Lugs (21, 21') are provided on respctive extensions (16, 16') between them defining a continuation of the slot (18). The base is formed with a slot (22) in which lugs (21, 21') are trapped so that opposed edges of the slot (22) provide a stop surface extending across the wire receiving slot (18) to trap wire therein.

Description

L'invention concerne des connecteurs électriques du type comportant une partie de connexion de fil qui présente une fente destinée à recevoir un fil avec un ajustement serré de façon à pénétrer dans tout isolant recouvrant le fil et à établir une liaison électrique permanente avec l'âme du fil. The invention relates to electrical connectors of the type comprising a wire connection part which has a slot intended to receive a wire with a tight fit so as to penetrate into any insulator covering the wire and to establish a permanent electrical connection with the core. some thread.

Il est bien connu, dans des connecteurs de ce type, de réaliser les parties de connexion à des fils en métal en feuille façonné de façon à présenter une section en U, des prolongements axiaux des parois du profilé en U etant pliés vers l'intérieur, en direction l'un de l'autre, transversalement à la base du profilé et à l'axe de celui-ci afin que leurs extrémités libres et opposées forment entre elles des fentes de réception de fil. It is well known, in connectors of this type, to produce the connection parts for wires made of sheet metal shaped so as to have a U-shaped section, axial extensions of the walls of the U-shaped profile being folded inwards. , in the direction of one another, transversely to the base of the profile and to the axis of the latter so that their free and opposite ends form between them thread receiving slots.

Cependant, des problèmes peuvent apparaître1 en particulier avec l'utilisation de fils torsadés ou de fils fins qui peuvent s' échapper de la fente et pénétrer dans tout espace compris entre les prolongements axiaux et la base, entraînant une détérioration ou une perte de la connexion électrique. However, problems may arise1 in particular with the use of twisted or thin wires which can escape from the slit and enter any space between the axial extensions and the base, resulting in deterioration or loss of connection electric.

De plus, lorsque la partie de connexion à un fil est réalisée en tôle mince, il peut être souhai tuable de soutenir les prolongements afin d'éviter tout risque de déformation ou d'écrasement de ceux-ci lors de l'insertion d'un fil. In addition, when the connection part to a wire is made of thin sheet metal, it may be desirable to support the extensions in order to avoid any risk of deformation or crushing thereof when inserting a wire.

Dans un connecteur conforme à l'invention, la base du profilé présente une surface transversale de butée s'étendant en travers de la fente de réception de fil afin d'empêcher un fil, introduit dans la fente, de s'échapper de cette dernière en passant entre les extrémités inférieures des prolongments axiaux et la base.  In a connector according to the invention, the base of the profile has a transverse abutment surface extending across the wire receiving slot in order to prevent a wire, introduced into the slot, from escaping from the latter passing between the lower ends of the axial extensions and the base.

Plus particulièrement, la surface de butée est formée par des bords d'une fente ménagée dans la base et s'étendant au-dessous des prolongements, lesquesl bords comportent des pattes qui sont prises dans la fente, des bords opposés des pattes formant un prolongement de la fente de réception de fil. More particularly, the abutment surface is formed by edges of a slot formed in the base and extending below the extensions, which edges have tabs which are taken in the slot, opposite edges of the tabs forming an extension. of the thread receiving slot.

Les brins individuels d'un fil peuvent donc être poussés vers le fond de la fente de réception de fil jusqu'à ce qu'ils butent contre la base, ce qui empêche leur échappement de la fente et assure l'établissement d'une liaison électrique permanente fiable. The individual strands of a wire can therefore be pushed towards the bottom of the wire receiving slot until they abut against the base, which prevents their escape from the slot and ensures the establishment of a connection. reliable permanent electric.

Un exemple du connecteur électrique selon l'invention sera à présent décrit en référence au dessin annexé sur lequel
- la figure 1 est une vue en perspective du connecteur ;
- la figure 2 est une coupe suivant la ligne 2-2 de la figure 1 ; et
- la figure 3 est une vue partielle en plan de dessous du connecteur
Le connecteur est embouti et formé à partir d'une seule pièce de métal en feuille et il comprend une partie classique 11 de contact destinée à recevoir une languette et dépassant d'une partie 12 de connexion à un fil, et une-partie 13 de sertissage.An example of the electrical connector according to the invention will now be described with reference to the attached drawing in which
- Figure 1 is a perspective view of the connector;
- Figure 2 is a section along line 2-2 of Figure 1; and
- Figure 3 is a partial plan view from below of the connector
The connector is stamped and formed from a single piece of sheet metal and it comprises a conventional contact part 11 intended to receive a tab and projecting from a part 12 for connection to a wire, and a part 13 of crimping.

La partie 12 de connexion est de section en U dont des parois latérales opposées 14, 14' sont pliées vers le haut d'une paroi de base 15 et présentent, à des extrémités axiales opposées, des prolongements axiaux 16, 16' et 17, 17', respectivement, qui sont pliés vers l'intérieur et l'un vers l'autre, transversalement à la paroi de base afin que leurs extrémités libres et opposées définissent entre elles des fentes 18 et 19, respectivement, de réception de fil
Des pattes 21, 21' partent des bords inférieurs des prolongements respectifs 16, 16' et sont prises dans une fente 22 qui s'étend transversalement à la paroi de base 15, des bords opposés des pattes 21, 21' formant un prolongement de la fente de réception de fil.The connection part 12 has a U-shaped cross section, of which opposite side walls 14, 14 ′ are folded upwards from a base wall 15 and have, at opposite axial ends, axial extensions 16, 16 ′ and 17, 17 ', respectively, which are folded inwards and towards each other, transversely to the base wall so that their free and opposite ends define between them slots 18 and 19, respectively, for receiving wire
Tabs 21, 21 'start from the lower edges of the respective extensions 16, 16' and are taken up in a slot 22 which extends transversely to the base wall 15, opposite edges of the tabs 21, 21 'forming an extension of the wire receiving slot.

Lors de l'utilisation du connecteur, un fil peut être inséré totalement sur la longueur de la fente 18 jusqu'à ce qu'il bute contre la paroi de base 15 où les bords des fentes empêchent tous brins du fil de s'échapper de la fente. De plus, étant donné que les pattes sont prises dans la fente, l'intégrité du connecteur peut être améliorée. When using the connector, a wire can be inserted completely along the length of the slot 18 until it abuts against the base wall 15 where the edges of the slots prevent any strands of the wire from escaping. slot. In addition, since the tabs are caught in the slot, the integrity of the connector can be improved.

Il va de soi que de nombreuses modifications peuvent être apportées au connecteur décrit et représenté sans sortir du cadre de l'invention.  It goes without saying that many modifications can be made to the connector described and shown without departing from the scope of the invention.
