3 Claims.
This invention relates to terminals for electrical conductors and, more specically, to terminals of the solderless type wherein a ferrule is attached by crimping, for example, to the end of an insulated conductor.
It is an object of this invention to provide an electrical connector adapted to connect a terminal or other electrical device to an electrical conductor by a simple crimping or upsetting operation.
A further object is the provision of a novel and improved electrical connector wherein the end `of an electrical conductor is sealed fluid tight Within the connector, thus avoiding both possible corrosion which might reduce the efciency ot electrical contact and any possibility of leakage from the end of the conductor and through its interstices if the conductor should pass through a bulkhead or the wall of a pressure chamber.
A further object of the invention is to provide a multi-part connector in which one part for application to the conductor may be standard for -a substantial range of connectors and may be readily connected and secured to another part.
Further objects and advantages will be in part pointed out as the description proceeds and will in part become apparent therefrom.
In the drawings, I have shown and described a preferred embodiment of my invention and various modifications thereof; but it is to be understood that these are not intended to be exhaustive nor limiting of the invention, but on the contrary are given for purposes oi' illustration in order that others skilled in the art may fully understand the invention and the principles thereof and the manner of applying it in practical use so that they may modifly and adapt it in various forms, each as may be best suited to the conditions of the particular use.
In the drawings, in which exemplary embodiments for attaining the above objectives are set forth and in which like reference characters refer to like parts throughout:
Figure 1 is a plan view. with parts broken away and parts in section, of a novel and improved solderless connection embodying the invention;
Figure 2 is a plan view. with parts broken away and parts in section, of a modied form of solderlessv connection embodying the invention;
Figure 3 is a view, partly in longitudinal section and partly in side elevation, o! a still iurther form of solderless connection embodying the invention;
Figure 4 ls a view, partly in longitudinal section and partly in side elevation, of yet another i'orm of solderless connection embodying the invention;
Figure 5 is a view, partly in longitudinal section and partly in side elevation, showing the thimble of Figure 4 before it is applied to an electrical conductor;
Figures 6 and 7 are, respectively, a longitudinal pian view and ,an elevational end view of another type of connector embodying the invention; and,
Figures 8 and 9 are, respectively, a longitudinal plan view and an electrical end view o! still another type of connector embodying the invention.
Referring to Figure 1, a solderless connection is illustrated between an electrical conductor, indicated generally by C, and a terminal connector, indicated generally by T. Conductor C comprises insulation I4 and a wire II made of a number of tinned copper strands. The electrical conductor is of a usual insulated stranded wire type commonly found in aeroplane controls. automobiles, radios, and the like. 'I'he connector T consists of a terminal contact portion I8 and a rolled or drawn ferrule portion I9. 'I'he invention is suited to use with other types of terrules, however, and might advantageously be combined with a great variety of different types of connections. The conductor C and ferrule portion I9 illustrated and described are shown merely by way of example.
Between conductor C and connector T there is shown a thin metal thimble, indicated generally by 20. The closed end 22 of thimble III has been upset against an edge of the ierrule portion I9. Central portion 23 of thimble 20 tits over the stripped end of wire IB, and open end 24 of thimble 20 has been expanded and fitted over the end of insulation Il oi' the conductor. Ferrule portion I9, together with the central portion 23 of the thimble, is crimped onto the wire IB to form a tight electrical and mechanical connection between the conductor, the thimble, and the ferrule. The open end portion 24 of thimble 20 may also be crimped or otherwise compressed onto the insulation to form a iirm support and a fluid tight seal therefor. Additional sealing means, e. g., an adhesive cement or plastic, may be used if desired between the thimble 20 and the conductor C, but ordinarily this will not be necessary ii' the end 2l is suitably compressed onto the insulation Il.
Referring to Figure 2, conductor C and connector T are of the same type as illustrated in Figure 1. A thin metal thimble a is illustrated in position over the stripped end of wire il and inside of ferrule i9. Thimble 20a has been upset near its outer end, as at lla, and hanged at its open end, as at 24a, to engage ferrule Il. The ferrule il may be crimped onto the wire Il and the thimble 20a to form a tight electrical and mechanical connection.
In this embodiment of the invention, a band of insulating material (not shown) may be used as a sheath to insulate the ferrule i! and to suDpOrt it from the insulated portion of the conductor C beyond 24a, and this may also assist, by compression or cementing, in sealing the thimble 20a to the conductor C.
Referring to Figure 3, conductor C is similar to that illustrated in Figures 1 and 2. The connector, generally indicated by T', consists of a terminal portion IIb and a ferrule portion Ilb. Portions ilb and IBb are held together, as shown, by the upset head 22h of a thin metal thimble 20h. In some instances it may be desirable to hold portions IBb and I9b together, as by brazing them or soldering them, either before or after they are applied to the electrical conductor. The open end 2lb of thimble 20h has been enlarged and fitted over the end of insulation il of the conductor and the peripheral edge of the end 2lb has been folded back into the thimble and crimped, or otherwise compressed, into insulation Il, as indicated at 26. This edge may be formed and applied in accordance with the copending application of Vernon E. Carlson and Thomas C. Freedom, Serial No. 459,624, filed September 25, 1942. As in the examples of Figures 1 and 2, the ferrule Nb, together with the central portion 23h of the thimble 29h, may also be crimped onto wire Il.
The ferrule lib may be omitted if the central portion 23h of the thimble is made sufilciently heavy to serve alone and is stepped near its end to provide a seat against which the terminal contact member Ib may be riveted. Such an embodiment is illustrated in Figure 4, wherein terminal connector T' is shown attached to conductor C by thimble 29o. Figure 5 representa thimble 2I|c before it is applied and upset onto the electrical conductor. Preferably it is made from sufilciently heavy stock to provide full strength in the electrical connection.
Figures 6 and 'l illustrate an electrical connector wherein thimble 20d is rolled and formed with tabs and ears integral with terminal connector T. The ears and tabs are rolled and formed, as illustrated, and the seams may be sealed by soldering or by brazing, for example.
Figures 8 and 9 illustrate an electrical connectar wherein thimble 29e is formed with an enlarged open end 24e. In this embodiment the central portion 23e and enlarged end 24e are drawn directly into the configurations illustrated and the seam where the edges meet is sealed as by soldering or by brazing. A connector may be attached to an electrical conductor in much the same manner as the members of Figures 1 or 3.
The erimps illustrated in the various forms between the thimble and the wire and between the thimble and the insulation are illustrative only and are not intended to delineate the precise extent to which any particular crimp may be lmassunse i The forms of the ferrule and of the terminal connector also are illustrative. Obviously other forms of terminals may be used: and the principle of the closed thimble made by stamping and rolling from flat stock may be used with other fornais, e. g., without the portion 24d, as in Figure From the foregoing, it will be seen that connections made in accordance with the present invention are well adapted to attain the ends and objects hereinbefore set forth and to be economically manufactured. The connections are watertight and hence eliminate corrosion and/or electrolysis between the wire and the terminal, whether they are of bright copper, aluminum, or tinned or silvered copper or aluminum, or other conducting material. In addition, the intermediate thimbles serve to center and conne the wire of the conductor so as to assure solid en gagement with the exterior portion during a subsequent crimping operation. Because of the thimble, the wire cannot escape to one side of a crimp or work its way between the edges of a rolled ferrule. Furthermore, the invention reduces the number of sizes oi' ferrules which must be kept in stock, since a relatively small wire may be coupled with a relatively large ferrule by using a thimble of proper dimensions and, as shown particularly in Figure 3, a few standard sizes of ferrules and/or thimbles may be used with a wide variety of terminal connectors each made as a simple stamping, etc., in a single standard size.
Not only does the thimble of the invention afford the above advantages among others, but also it may, by reason of its shape and the upset of its end, serve as a rivet or holding member between the various portions of a ferrule and a conductor; and if previously secured in tight electrical contact with the conductor may thus make unnecessary any crimping of the ferrule.
In the use of these connectors the thimble 2li may be assembled with the connector T at the factory, the end portion as at 22 being pressed against one end of ferrule portion I9, so as to give a mechanically secure and electrically emcient and moisture tight connection and the opposite end as at 24 being formed into an abutment against the other end of ferrule portion i8. The connector thus assembled may be slipped onto the end of the bared conductor, as shown in the drawings. and then secured and sealed thereon, e. g., by crimping the end 2l .and the ferrule I9 with a tool such as disclosed in cepending applications of Vernon E. Carlson, Serial No. 455,033, filed August 1'7, 1942, now Patent No. 2,359,083, dated September 26, 1944, and of U. A. Whitaker, Serial No. 455,039, filed August 17, 1942. Or, instead of assembling the thimble and connector at the factory, this may be done on the job; and, likewise, the thimble may be assembled with and secured to the wire I8 at the factory or on the job. Thus, the thimble may be slipped over the bared end of the conductor and crimped or otherwise secured to the wire; and subsequently the wire and thimble together may be pushed into the terminal connector T-either into the ferrule Il of Figures i and 2, or into the hole in the simple terminal contact member IIb of Figure 3. The wire and thimble assembly may assunta then be secured to the terminal connector by upsetting the end of the thimble as shown.
