Abstract

PURPOSE: To minimize the insertion pressure in inserting a pin into a hole that is set on a printed circuit board by configuring a contact section with a recessed part set to the vertical direction and fins set at these both sides when an electric contact pin is composed of a sharp tip section, a base section, and a contact section positioned between them. CONSTITUTION: When the pin is inserted into a pin hole of the printed circuit board, the insertion becomes easy by bending the contact section of the pin. The contact pin is composed of the sharp tip section 9, the base section, and the contact section 1 positioned between them and then the contact section 1 is configured as next. Namely, the recessed part 2 of the vertical direction having the bottom section 10 of a V-shape is formed between the tip section 9 and the base section and is surrounded by two fins 7 and 11. The turning point connected to the tip section 9 and the base section increases and decreases gradually its height. Thus, the insertion into and removal from the hole can be easily achieved by giving to the contact section 1 the flexible function.

2. Description of the Related Art Such a pin is disclosed in Dutch Patent No. 85.
No. 02046. Such pins, also known as compression compliant pins, are mounted in through holes in printed wiring boards. The holes are generally made of copper and are provided with a metallization, with a tin layer of tin covering it. In such an electrical connection between the pin and the metallization, a solderless or similar connection is required anyway, but the electrical contact is obtained by a closed form fit and a frictional connection.

In practice, such pins are made from substantially square wires or flat strips, the vertical recesses of the contacts being formed by stamping techniques, and a large number of fins being outside, above or below. Is pushed out or pushed out. In the case of the pin known from the aforementioned Dutch specification, the purpose is to allow the four fins of the insertion part of the pin into the hole of the printed wiring board to be gradually bent inwardly, thereby causing four points in the hole. The fixation of is obtained. The H-shaped design reduces or eliminates the risk of rotating pins during mounting. Often, square pins of that kind, widely used in the printed wiring board industry in the above conditions, can be used. The plurality of protruding fins are completely symmetrically configured,
It is very important that all four have the same thickness so that when inserted into the hole all four bend and bit into the metallization of the hole. Therefore, the slightly different thickness and hence the different hardness of the protruding fins leads to a rotational or eccentric position of the pin obtained during insertion, which causes serious damage to the metallization of the hole. . It is also weakened by a counter plug on the opposite side of the printed wiring board, which fact causes the rotated square pin to have a sharp biting face with the fixed counter plug.

In the case of the pin known from the aforementioned specification, the flat bottom has a V on either side of the transverse rib of the longitudinal recess.
Has a shape. A vertical recess with a V-shaped bottom is obtained by means of a corresponding knife-shaped die. During stamping of the longitudinal recess, this V-shaped bottom acts as a central facilitator, which results in a perfectly symmetrical design of the fins on either side of the recess with the same thickness and height. .

It has been found in the case of contact pins that, especially when their dimensions are very small, that deformations occur in said hole metallizations beyond the norm above them. The deformation in the hole metallization is then 0.05m from the MIL standard.
For example, it is larger than the requirement of m. The changes that exist at the fin height in the well-known contact pin from a straight point to the contact, where the change is bent slightly inward, are practically inappropriate to prevent such deformation. I understood.

FIG. 2A shows a perspective view of the electrical connection pin according to FIG. 1A partially inserted into the printed wiring board hole. It can be clearly seen from the beginning that the contact surface between the pin and the hole is initially small. Figure 2 (b) gives a cross-sectional view of the further inserted contact pin along the Id-Id line of Figure 1 (b), how the fins are in a uniform and symmetrical form. It can be clearly seen from this that it is bent slightly inward, resulting in contact of the holes with the metallization. The H shape of the contact portion is almost maintained. It is clear that this slight bending caused by insertion during mounting is still not present at the gradual transitions 7 and 8.

For the well-known electrical contact pins, which are generally applied to 1 mm holes, a pressing pressure of up to 200 Newtons and an extrusion pressure of 35 Newtons minimum (after temperature stress test) are required. For contact pins used in 0.7 mm holes, the latest specifications require their values to be a maximum of 100 Newtons for indentation pressure and a minimum of 30 Newtons for extrusion pressure.

This embodiment is shown in the perspective view of FIG. FIG. 3 (b) shows a vertical cross section running along the vertical axis. 3C, 3D, and 3E show contact pins of FIG. 4A along the line IIIc-IIIc, the line IIId-IIId, and the line IIIe-IIIe of FIG. 4A, respectively. A cross-sectional view is shown. It can now be seen that the fins are bent inward over a considerable part of the longitudinal distance of the contact, increasing gradually first and then decreasing. At the same time, (c) of FIG.
As can be seen from the comparison between (d) and (e), the height of the fin increases from the beginning to the maximum value as the number of lateral ribs decreases. A significant portion of the above can be about half the vertical distance. A softer insertion of the contact pin into the printed wiring board hole is obtained by the inward curvature of the fin, which is strongest, especially in the section between the cross sections IIIc-IIIc and IIId-IIId. For example, the stringent requirements of the MIL standard can be met by this design.

FIG. 4 (a) also shows a perspective view of the electrical connection pin according to the invention partially inserted in the printed wiring board hole. It can be seen here that, like the contact pin of FIG. 2 (a), there is initially a large contact surface between said pin and the metallization. FIG. 4B shows a cross-sectional view of the further inserted contact pin along the line IIIe-IIIe in FIG. 3B. The intermeshed enlarged contact between the fins and the metallization of the holes can also be revealed from the latter cross-section.

The profiled bottom is obtained as a fin of extremely reproducible and symmetrical shape over the entire side surface. The deformation of the contact portion is
The short sides of the fins of the integral contact are bent slightly, in particular in the longitudinal direction as a result of the fins being bent more strongly inward over the first part of the longitudinal distance.

FIG. 5 shows a perspective view of the final and thus already deformed contact pin of FIG. 3a with two compression elements or semi-circular bushings used for deformation. It is shown that the two bushes 11 and 12 are symmetrically located above and below the pin contact portion, respectively. The two bushes in the first example are not shown to each consist of a straight half cylinder. In another example, each semi-circular bush is composed of a first semi-circular section 13, a semi-conical section 14 and a second semi-circular section 15. The two bushes are located opposite each other and symmetrically opposite each other, and the parts 13, 1
The transition between the 4 and the oppositely arranged is IIIc in FIG. 3 (b).
From the IIIc cross section, the transverse rib 10 is deformed to rest on the transverse plane of the contact where the decreasing thickness is constant, and the counter-arranged transition between the parts 14, 15 is its longitudinal distance.

The pressing action of the two semi-cylindrical bushes that surround and oppose the contact pin can be seen better on the top side of the pin in FIG. 3 (a) and on one side of the pin in FIG. 4 (a). Results in four protruding fins that are bent inward. As can be seen from (c), (d), and (e) of FIG. 3, the H-shape of the contact portion approaches the double C-shape. Through this deformation, a better and softer insertion into the printed wiring board hole is obtained with a lower pressing pressure. This results in less deformation of the hole metallization and maintaining the pin attitude (eg non-rotating), which ensures good contact with the counter plug.
