INVENTOR FINTON \JQCKSON BORIS FLJQCKSON ATTORNE United States Patent 2,761,108 LOCKING CONNECTOR WITH noon ASSEMBLY Anton Jackson, Queens Village, and Boris A. Jackson, Valley Stream, N. Y.
Application February 10, 1954, Serial No. 409,284
3 Claims. (Cl. 339-45) This invention relates to electrical connectors employing a multiplicity of contacts adapted to be brought into electrical connection with each other. More particularly, the invention deals with connectors including a hood assembly on one or" the connectors, wherein means is provided for coupling and securing the connectors together and to separate the connectors whenever desired. Still more particularly, the invention deals with a structure of the character described, wherein the hood assembly can be quickly and easily detached with respect to the connector and, wherein, the hood includes a detachable cover plate to give access to the contacts of the connector.
The novel features of the invention will be best understood from the following description, when taken together with the accompanying drawing, in which certain embodiments of the invention are disclosed and, in which, the separate parts are designated by suitable reference charactors in each of the views and, in which:
Fig. l is an exploded side view showing a pair of con v nectors made according to our invention, with parts of the construction broken away and in section and illustrating only part of the contacts employed; and
Fig. 2 is an exploded end view of the structure as seen in Fig. l, with part of the structure broken away and in section and omitting showing of the contacts of the connectors.
In the drawing, it and 11 represent two connectors comprising elongated bodies 12 and 13, respectively, of insulating material, these bodies having, throughout the major portion of the area thereof, inwardly of the ends, sockets, as at 14 and 15, respectively, in which male and female contacts are mounted. In some instances, all of the male contacts are mounted in one connector and the female contacts are mounted in the other connector. On the other hand, in some instances, it is desirable to mount male and female contacts in both connectors, as diagrammatically illustrated in the showing of part only of the contacts in Fig. 1 of the drawing. Female contacts 16, 16 are shown mounted in the connectors and 11 and male contacts 17 and 17 are also shown mounted therein. While only two contacts are illustrated in Fig. 1 of the drawing, it will be understood that connectors of the kind under consideration include large numbers of the contacts usually ranging from twenty to two hundred or more.
in view of the number of contacts employed in connectors of this type and kind and the fact that these contacts have spring engagements with each other, it requires considerable pressure to engage and disengage the connectors and, from this standpoint, we have provided means for manually and positively coupling and uncoupling the connectors, as later described.
End portions of the connectors have male and female alinemcnt members facilitating the alinement of the contact-s one with respect to the other; for example, male alinement pins 18 are provided at one end of the connector 1t? and the corresponding end of connector 11 has socket members 19 for reception of the pins 18. It will be understood that the other ends of the connectors 10 and 11 will have an opposed arrangement of the male and female members 18 and 19. In other words, the lefthand end of the connectors shown in Fig. 1 will have female members 19 disposed on the connector 10 and male members 18 on the connector 11. These alinement members are old in the art and, for this reason, no attempt is made to show these members in Fig. l of the drawing, as our invention is primarily concerned with the means for manually moving the connectors into coupled and uncoupled engagement with respect to each other, which means comprises the rods 20 and 21, note Fig. l of the drawing. The rod 20 has, at its lower end, an internally threaded female socket 22; whereas the rod 21 has, at its lower end, a male threaded portion 23 terminating with a reduced guide end 24.
it will also be apparent from a consideration of Fig. l of the drawing that the connector 11 has, in aiinement with the female socket 22, a male threaded pin 25 coopcrating with the socket 22 and at its other end a female threaded socket 26 cooperating with the threaded portion 23. The pin 25 has a reduced guide end 27, similar to the end 24. It is preferred that the threading of all of the parts 22, 23, 255 and 26 be of standard double threading to facilitate quick action in coupling and uncoupling the connectors.
it will appear from a consideration of Fig. l of the drawing that the pin 25, as well as the socket 26, have a free mounting in sockets 28 and 29 of the connector 11, the pin and sockets having reduced t ended portions 30 and $1 on which are mounted cap- nuts 32 and 33 to retain the pin and socket in position. The pins 39 and 31 preferably have flattened sides to engage correspondingly formed sockets 34 and 35 to key the pin 25 and socket 25 against rotation in the connector 11. No detailed showmg of this keying construction is made as it is well known in the art.
it will also be noted from a consideration of Fig. l of the drawing that the socket 22 is freely and rotably mounted in a bore 36 of the connector 10 and the pin threaded portion 23 is correspondingly mounted in a bore 37 of the connector. At 38 is shown a casing or hood which is fixed to the connector 10, the casing being open at one side and this open side is closed by a cover plate 39, the lower end 46 of which overlies one side of the connector 10, as clearly noted in Fig. 2 of the drawmg. Screws 41 are employed in corner portions of the cover and casingto secure the cover in position, only part ofthese screws being shown. The casing 3 8 has an ex tension 42, similar to the extension 40, to overlie the other extent the connector ltl, as noted in Fig. 2 of the drawing.
The ends of the casing 38 have inwardly extending flanges 43, note Fig. 1, through which the rods 29 and 21 pass. The rods also pass through apertures in the top wall 44 of the casing, as noted, for example, at the right of Fig. 1, and fixed to the protruding ends of the rods 20 and 21 are knobs 45 having fingerpiece crossrods 46 facilitating manual rotation of the rods. It will be apparent that washers 4-7 are disposed between the knobs 5 and the top wall 44 of the casing and other washers 43 are disposed between the sockets 22 and the threaded portions 23 and the flanges 43 to facilitate the rotation of the rods in coupling and uncoupling of the connectors. In this operation, the connector 11 is brought into close proximity to the connector 10 by aligning the pins and sockets 18 and 19 and, in this operation, the threaded portion 23 of the rod 21 is brought into engagement with the threaded socket 26 and the socket 23 is brought into engagement with the threaded pin 25 and, in intermittently rotating the knobs 45, the connector 11 is firmly drawn into engagement with the connector 10, the male and female contacts being moved into positive engagement with each other. In the fore- 3 going operation, no strain is put on the connector 10. To the contrary, all strain of rods 20, 21 and the threaded couplings 22 and 23 is taken up by the casing 33, as clearly noted in Fig. 1 of the drawing. In referring to the free mounting of the male and female coupling members 23, 22, 25, 26 in their respective connector bodies of insulating material and 11, this free mounting may be descriptively described as an axial floating of the members and, by virtue of the freedom of these members, also are tiltable within limits which facilitates, through the medium of the double threads employed, the free and quick coupling and uncoupling of the connectors.
To separate the connectors, the rods 20 and 21 are reversely rotated and this operation definitely moves the connector 11 out of engagement with the connector 10.
It will be noted from a consideration of Fig. 2 of the drawing that the knobs 45 are detachably coupled with the rods 20, 21 by set screws 49, one of these engagements with the rod 21 being shown in said figure.
One end of the casing 38 has an elongated opening 50, through which electric wires extending to the contacts 16 and 17 are adapted to pass. These wires also pass through a clamp yoke 51 defined by a yoke part 52 secured to the casing and extending beyond the apertured end wall and a yoke part 53 secured to the cover 39 and arranged in alinement with the yoke part 52. Screws 54 are employed to draw the yoke parts together in clamping the wires therebetween, as will be apparent.
It will be understood that the male and female alinement members 18 and 19 of the connector 10 engage the casing, or the flanges 43 thereof, in coupling the easing 38 with said connector. It will, thus, be apparent that the casing 38, together with the pins 20, 21 and the female and male threaded portions 22, 23 can be removed from the connector 10 without detachment of said rods.
Having fully described our invention, what we claim as new and desire to secure by Letters Patent is:
