z claims. (ci. ass-14) This invention relates to a terminal or connector strap useful in a number of settings as, -for example, in the setting of a grounding strap and grounding lug, both of which are shown in the drawing.
In the past, numerous eiorts have been made to develop a simple and convenient means for electrically securing a connector strap toa .ground post as, for example the tube pin or center post of a laminated tube socket. The means heretofore developed have either been complex in the structure itself or in the means for assembling the components, or the electric connection provided by the attempted mechanical lock is not satisfactory. There has been a need then for an improved connector strap and tube pin structure mechanically united in the forming of an electric connection,. and it is accordingly an objectof this invention to provide-such a structure.
Another object of this invention is to provide in combination with a panel-which, for example, might; be f A the laminates in a laminated tube socket-a tube pin or connector pin and connector strap for assembly with such panel inv a simple and expeditious manner, and to provide an arrangement of parts whereby a mechanical interlock occurs between the pin and strap that is effective as a good electrical connection. Yet a further object is in providing a connector member which may be used as a grounding strap in combination with a laminatedtube socket, and as a grounding lug with printed wire boards, and of course in other settings as well, and which has a base leg provided at its inner end with an aperture for receiving the sha-nk of a grounding or tube.` pin, and which has a tab extending upwardly in substantially contiguous relation with the shank of a pin extending through the aperture-the tabbeing dimensioned so as to project slightly above the panel with which it and the pin are assembled, whereby such projecting end bites into the shank of the pin when the upper end of the shank is rolled over in the uniting of the components with the panel. Additional objects and advantages will appear as the specication develops.
Embodiments of the invention are illustrated in the accompanying drawing, in which- Figure l is a perspective view of a laminated tube socket embodying the invention, and being shown with av tube and tube shield in position with respect thereto; Figure 2 is a bottom plan view of the socket assembly shown in Figure 1; Figure 3 is a broken vertical sectional view taken along the line 3--3 of Figure 2; Figure 4 is a broken vertical sectional view corresponding to that of Figure 3, but showing the condition of the respective parts prior to the swaging operation that completes the assembly and puts it in the condition shown in Figure 3; Figure 5 is a perspective view of the terminal strap shown in each of the preceding gures in position with respect to the other components of the socket assembly; Figure 6 is a broken vertical sectional view corresponding substantially to that of Figure 4, but showing a modified form of terminal strap; Figure 7 is a broken vertical sectional view of the modified terminal strap illustrated in Figure 6, and Figure 7 corresponds to the showing of Figure 3; and Figure 8 is a perspective view of the modiiiedqterminal -strap illustrated in Figures 6 and 7..
Figure 1 illustrates a laminated tube socket 10 that is forthe most part conventional and has, therefore, a plurality of depending connector pins 11 adapted to extend through apertures therefor in a printed wire board and to be connected by solder globules -to the printed wire thereon. 'I'he socket 10 also has a center grounding post or tube pin '12 and a plurality of pin sockets 13 spaced apart circumferentially thereabout for alignment with and to receive the contact pins of a tube 14 that, in the illustration of Figure l, is enclosed by metal, electrostatic shield 15. 'Ihe shield 15 may be provided with a number of indentations 16 that form internal projections for frictionally gripping and centering the tube 14 within the shield. All of the components so far described are well known in the art, and in being conventional require no further description.
As is most apparent from an examination of Figure 2, the laminae of the socket 10 are circular, but at one point therealong are attened, as shown at 17 to facilitate the extension thereby of the upwardly oriented leg 18 of the terminal strap 19, which has an outwardly bowed portion 2i) adjacent the lower end of the leg 18 to further facilitate the extension of the leg upwardly beyond the socket laminates. The upperend of the leg 18 is turned laterally outwardly to form a tip 21, and this outwardly turned end facilitates the insertion of the tube 14'into the socket and the'positioning of the shield 15 about the tube.v The terminal strap also has'abase legV 22 formed integrally with the leg 18, and it -is oriented generally at right angles-with respect to the leg 18 so as to lie ush along the underside of the socket 10.
The `socket 10 has yanopening therethrough that is alignable with the aperture 23"in the base leg 22 of the terminal strap, and when the opening and aperture are in alignment, they are adapted to pass a rivet 24 therethrough which in completion has swaged-or rolled ends which serve to rigidly anchor the strap to the socket and, of course, which serve additionally to anchor the laminates of the socket together. The base leg 22 at its inner terminus is circular, as is shown at 25, and this circular end portion has an opening or aperture 26 therethrough dimensioned to receive the upper shank portion 27 of the tube pinlZ, as is shown `most clearly in Figures 3 and 4. The tube pin 12 has an accordion fold adjacentY the upper end thereof that forms an annular iiange 28 adapted to abut the underside of the end 25 of the terminal strap to prevent the pin from moving therethrough.
The terminal strap is equipped with an upwardly turned tab 29 struck from the material removed in forming the aperture 26 in terminal end 25 thereof. The tab is substantially normal to the base leg 22 of the strap, and extends upwardly adjacent the circumference of the opening 26 whereby it is contiguous with the shank 27 of the tube pin when that shank is inserted through the opening 26. lt will Ibe noted that the tab 29 is dimensioned so that it extends slightly above the upper surface of the socket 10 when the strap is in position with respect thereto, having its base leg 22 in abutment with the undersurface of the socket. Thus, when the pin 12 is anchored in place =by rolling or swaging the upper end thereof outwardly and into the configuration illustrated in Figure 3, the upper end of the tab 29 digs into the outwardly turned end of the shank so as to Ibecome, in eect, integrated therewith whereby an excellent electric connection is provided between these two members.
It will be apparent that the terminal strap 19 may be secured in position as part of t-he normal assembly operations wherein the connector pins 11, the sockets 13,
A Patented June 14, 1960 laminates and tube pin 12 are united. Whatever the sequence of operations, however, the strap 19 will be positioned with respect to the socket laminates, as shown in Figure 4, and a rivet.24 'and tube pin .'12 inserted into position. Thereafter,v the lupper end of `the"rivet and upper end of the pin shank 27 will be swaged over to unite the strap, as shown in Figure 3. It will be understood that the leg 18 in being inclined inwardly and in resiliently maintaining such position, willtightly engage a shield surrounding a tube 14 mounted in the socket so as to establish a goed electrical connection therewith. The shield will lbe igrounded `through the strap and through the pin 1-2 which, when -thesocket is mounted on a panel such as a printed wire board, will be connected to an appropriate ground wire.
Figures 6 through 8A show a modification of Vthe ten minal strap 19, and in this form a panelltlf, which may be a printed wire board, is apertured to receive a tube pin or ground post 12. flanged at 28 to abut the underside of the base leg 22' of the modified 'terminal strap or `ground lug 19. As is most apparent from Figure 8, the base leg of this connector strap has al circular terminal end 25' provided with an aperture or opening 26` therethrough which receives the upper shank 27' of the ground post. The connector strapl also has an upwardly oriented tab 29' dimensioned so as to extendslightly above the upper surfacel of the panel, and` to biteinto the shank ofthe tube pin at the upper end thereof when it is swaged outwardly, as shown in Figure 7.; .t
The strap 19 has a downwardly turnedleg 18 that, ifk desired, may be formed with auV aperture 30 therein for receiving the end of a connectorwire which vwould be then soldered thereto; The terminal strapl 19,I and tube pin 12 are assembled'withthe panel orboard :10' in precisely thesamernanner as describedy with reference to the assembly operation of 'the terminal strap v 19. Therefore, the assembly steps will not again be repeated. For convenience, the components ofthe modified ,structure shown in Figures 6, 7 and 8 are designated-with the same numerals as those adopted forthe components of Figures 1 through 5, and are` distinguished therefrom only in that each of the numbers has been primed.
The strap in the forms illustrated serves' as' a grounding strap for a tube shield or as agrounding lug fora tube pin. It will be apparent,Y however, that straps or lugs or similar members having different uses may embody the same inventive principles advantageously for it is foundthat after assembly an excellent electrical connection is made between the strap and tube as well as providing a good mechanical interlock] The assembly getinte 4 can be accomplished in a simple operation and with convenience.
While in the foregoing speciiication embodiments of the invention have been described in considerable detail for purposes of illustration, it will be apparent to those skilled in the art that numerous changes may be made in those details Without departing from the spirit and Y principles of the invention.
