Claims. (Cl. 174-84) The invention relates to electrical connectors of the insulated sleeve type which are adapted to be crimped on bare end portions of insulated wire conductors, and more particularly to insulated connectors of the butt-end and/or terminal type, for example, wherein the insulating sleeve includes an annular means for locating a predetermined area of such connectors between the jaws of a crimping tool having corresponding complementary cavities `formed therein for receiving the locating means.
More specifically, the invention resides in insulated electrical connectors of the character specified having a separate split ring of hard frangible plastic material mounted thereon in captive relation adapted to indicate areas thereon to be crimped and for locating such areas of the connector with respect to the jaws of a crimping tool provided with corresponding complementary slots o-r cavities for receiving the frangible plastic ring therein preparatory to performing a crimping operation thereon in which operation the frangible plastic ring is shattered or crushed and thus expended, leaving the crimped connector free of such indicating, locating or positioning means.
Similar insulated sleeve connectors, known heretofore, were provided with an annular locating or positioning flange, as an integral part thereof, at spaced points thereon intermediate its opposite ends. This construction possessed certain disadvantages in that such connectors, in the installation of a large number in parallel relation, were not adapted to be grouped together in closely bundled relation by reason of such integral locating tlanges and thus occupied more space. Moreover, suchv connectors were more expensive to manufacture, required more time to inspect each crimped connector after a large number had been connected to and between the respective ends of two bundles of wire conductors, and were not adapted for a color differential between the annular flanges and the body ofthe insulation covering on the sleeve connector, whereby to -visually distinguish different sizes of such connectors.
Accordingly, it is an object of the invention lo provide an insulated sleeve 'type splice connector of the character specified whichlis not subject to the abovenoted disadvantages. l
A further object of the invention is to provide an insulated sleeve type connector as specified which is provided with frangible locating means adapted to be shattered or expended in a crimping operation thereon.
Another object of the invention is to provide an insulated sleeve type splicing connector having spaced annular locating flanges mounted thereon in captive relation which are automatically eliminated during a crimping operation thereon. Y
Another object of the invention is to provide an insulated sleeve type splice connector as specified which need not, in the use thereof, be staggered lengthwise relative to a large number of such connectors in order to form a compact bundle thereof in a minimum of space.
Another object of the invention is to provide an insulated sleeve type connector as specified wherein the insulation jacket and an annular locating flange adjacent each end portion thereof consists respectively of a yieldable plastic material of a predetermined color and a hard frangible plastic material of a contrasting color.
With the above and other objects in view, the invention resides in the novel construction, combination and arrangement of parts, the novel features of which are Set forth with particularity in the appended claims, the invention itself, however, both as to its organization and method of operation, together with additional objects and advantages thereof, being best understood from the following description of a specic embodiment thereof, when taken in connection with the accompanying drawing, in which:
Fig. 1 is a View in elevation of a butt-end type of insulated electrical connector showing a `frangible split ring or collar seated in an annular groove formed about the insulating sleeve of the connector adjacent each opposite end thereof;
Fig. 2 is a sectional view taken on the line Fig. l;
Fig. 3 is a transverse sectional view taken on the line 3 3 of Fig. 2;
Fig. 4 is a perspective view of a or collar per se;
Fig. 5 is a view in elevation of a terminal type of insulated electrical connector showing a frangible split ring or collar mounted thereon in a manner similar to that shown in Fig. 1;
Fig. 6 is a sectional view taken on the line 6 6 of Fig. 5;
Fig. 7 is a sectional view similar to Fig. 6, showing an endless frangible ring or collar press-fitted on the outer periphery of the insulating sleeve of a terminal connector shown in Fig. 5;
Fig. 8 is a perspective view of an insulated butt-end electrical connector, as in Fig. l, after the respective end portions thereof have each been crimped on the bare end portion of an insulated wire conductor; and
Fig, 9 is a perspective view of an insulated electrical terminal connector, as in Fig. 5,' after the insulated barrelend portion thereof has been crimped on the bare end portion of an insulated `wire conductor,
Referring to the drawing, the invention is illustrated in Figs. l, 2, 3 and 8 as applied to a butt-end, insulated sleeve type connector 10, wherein an insulating sleeve l2 of nylon, for example, is telescoped over a ductile metal sleeve 14, with the opposite ends of the insulating sleeve 12 extending beyond the opposite ends of the metal sleeve 14, as exemplified in United States Patent Des. 18l,392, assigned to the same assignee as in this application.
In accordance with the invention, the insulating sleeve 12 of the butt-end connector 10 is provided with an annular groove 16 of suitable width and a depth of'at least ve thousandths of an inch, adjacent each end of the connector 10, for the reception of a split ring or collar 18 of frangible plastic material in each groove. The normal inner diameter of the split ring or collar 18 is substantially equal to the outer diameter of the grooves 16, whereby thc rings or collars 18 are held on the butt-end connector l0, against relative lateral displacement. The rings 18 are adapted for locating each end portion of the butt-end connector 10, relative to the jaws of a known form of crimping tool which are suitably slotted to receive one of the rings or collars 18 therein preparatory to performing a crimping operation on the connector 10 in known manner. The depth of the complementary slots formed in the jaws of the crimping tool is such that they will close substantially simultaneously on the outer periphery of'fthe butt-end connector and the outer pefrangible split ring riphery of the locating ring or collar 18, during a crimping operation thereon. The frangible ring 18 is thus subjected to a crimping pressure and expended by reason of the frangible locating ring or collar 18 being crushed, leaving the butt-end connector 10 free of such locating rings after a crimping operation thereon, as illustrated in Fig. 8.
Further in accordance with the invention, the frangible rings or collars 18, of styrene, for example, are provided in a color differing from that of the nylon insulating sleeve 12, whereby to provide a definite color contrast therebetween and thus facilitate the visual positioning of an end portion of a butt-end connector 10 relatlve to and between the slotted jaws of a crimping tool of the pliers type, for example.
The invention is also applicable to electrical connec tors of the terminal type, as illustrated in Figs. 5, 6, 7 and 9, wherein a terminal connector 20, having an insulating sleeve 22, of nylon, for example, telescoped over its wire barrel end portion, is also provided with an annular groove 24, substantially intermediate the ends thereof for securing a split ring or collar 26 of frangible plastic material thereon, in captive relation, to provide a crimp locating means thereon in the same manner and for the same purpose as described in connection with the preceding drawing gures, whereby the terminal connector '20 is left free of its locating ring or collar 26, after a crimping operation has been performed thereon, as illustrated in Fig. 9.
Further in accordance with the invention and with particular reference to Fig. 7, the insulating sleeve ou either a butt-end electrical connector or a terminal connector of the apertured tongue type, for example, may also be provided with a frangible endless ring or collar 28 by press-fitting the ring on the plain outer periphery of the insulating sleeve 30, in known manner, whereby to secure the frangible ring 28 intermediate the ends of the insulating sleeve 30, for locating the connector in a crimping tool for the same purpose and with the same result, as hereinbefore described.
While the invention has been illustrated and described with respect to one embodiment thereof, it is to be expressly understood that various changes and modifications may be made therein without departing from the inventive concept underlying the same. Therefore, the invention is not to be limtied except as is necessitated by the prior art and the scope of the appended claims.
