MODULAR ELECTRICAL CONNECTOR 5 Sheets-Sheet 2 INVENTOR. Grace l. Wicks ATTORNEY June 19, 1962 G. l. wlcKs 3,040,289
MODULAR ELECTRICAL CONNECTOR 47702/VE Y 3,040,289 MODULAR ELECTRICAL CONNECTR Grace I. Wicks, Scottsdale, Ariz., assignor to Burndy Corporation, a corporation of New York Filed Nov. 24, 1958, Ser. No. 775,757 3 Claims. (Cl. 339-126) My invention relates to a multiple unit panel and, more particularly, to a disconnect panel in which the panel units are individually readily detachable and removable for replacement, interchange orV for modification.
Hitherto, a multiple unit panel required removal of the individual connections when it was desired to make any change in the circuitry. Where component connections required multiple circuits, such arrangement was lacking in liexibility and interchangeability. Accordingly, an object of the invention is to provide a disconnect panel wherein the multiple panel units are readily detached, interchanged, replaced or modified as a unit.
Other objects are to provide a panel having the foregoing featurcs, which is compact, which will permit removal of the unit parts easily and quickly, and to provide means wherein the panel units may be disassembled and locked into position resisting vibration and other conditions which may result in accidental disconnection.
The above-mentioned and other features and objects .of the invention will become more apparent by reference to the following description taken in conjunction with the accompanying drawings, in which:
IFIG. 1 is a top plan view of a panel assembly incorporating my invention, with a corner of a panel unit shown in section;
FIGURE 1A is a `detail top view in section of FIG- URE l showing the spring `loaded plunger;
FIGURE 2 is a rear inverseI elevation thereof, partly in section, and mounted on a bulkhead;
FIGURE 4 is a bottom plan elevation of the frame;
FIG. 5 is a side sectional View of the frame taken along line 5-5 of 'FIGURE l;
lFIG. 6 is a perspective exploded view of a combined panel unit and shield spring for a panel unit;
FIG. 7 is a perspective view, partially in section, showing the partial insertion of a female panel unit into the frame; and
FIG. 8 is a perspective View, partially in section, showing the complete insertion Aof a female panel unit into the frame.
The assembly comprises a Iframe 10 having apertures 12 for bolting the frame as at 13, to a bulkhead 14, the connections to the assembly extending through opening 16 of the bulkheads. The frame forms an opening 18 into which a plurality of female panel units 20I are seated, and upon which complementary male panel units 22 are mounted.
-In the embodiment illustrated, the bottom female panel units 20 are tted into the frame at grooves 24- and 26, respectively (see FIG. 4). The groove 24 is provided with a seat 28 for positioning the panel unit, and the opposite frame wall 30 is provided with a plunger 32 loaded by a spring 33 having a pin handle 34 for manually releasing the female panel unit from the frame. A plug 35 secures the spring and plunger in the frame. The female panel unit 20 is tapered at 36 and recessed at 38 to permit the panel unit to depress the plunger 32 on engagement with the taper 36 and snap into the recess 38 to support the female panel unit in position within the grooves and upon seat 28.
A combination frequency shield and spring 40 (see FIG. 6) surrounds the bottom of the female panel unit 20 forming spring tongue `42 at both ends thereof, which v 3,040,289 Patented June I9, 1962 engages the sides of the grooves 24 and 26 in the frame to shield the female panel unit and to support it tightly in the frame. End clips 41 snap into dimples 43 on the extensions 45 to the panel unit to hold the spring `40 firmly in position thereto.
The female panel unit 20 is further provided with bores 44 for receiving aligning and polarizing pins 46, hereafter described and |bores 48 for containing the female electrical connector parts 5t? shown as socket type contacts for receiving the pin contacts 52 of the mating male panel unit. The connector parts may be reversed, if desired.
The mating male panel units 22 are similarly provided with corresponding lbores 54 for containing the pin contacts. In addition, they contain aligning pins 46, which are located at each end, one above and one below the center line of the panel extending into bores 44 of female panel unit 20 for aligning and polarizing the panel units to each other. A recess 55 is provided in each panel 22 to accommodate t-he end of pin handle 34 when panel 22 is tightened onto frame 10.
The mating male panel unit 22 is also provided with attaching and separating means such as bolts 56 which are freely seated in bores l58 of the mating male panel units, with shoulders 60 and 62 engaging the male panel unit 22 so as to permit rotation without linear movement. These attaching and separating bolts, in the embodiment illustrated, are threadably secured to the frame for locking the mating units thereto. In FIG. 3, I have shown a floating or self-adjusting socket member 6'4 for securing the bolts 56 which member comprises a threaded stem portion 66, and a nut y68 seated in a bore 70 of the frame. The nut is tightened to the threaded stem capturing the frame seat 72 between the nut and shoulder 74 of the stern. The socket member is flattened on the sides thereof to engage the -flat side 78 of the bore to prevent rotation of the socket when the bolt is inserted therein. Both bolt 56 and socket member 64 are loosely fitted in their respective bores to provide a floating effect to accommodate variations in fit within accepted tolerances. The bolt may be provided with a knurled knob Sil for hand turning, and/ or with a polygonal recess 82 for inserting a wrench therein. Similarly, the nut 68 may be slotted as at 84 for inserting a suitable tool therein for rotation.
In order to permit the attaching and separating bolt to be supported to the frame, the mating male panel units may be made longer than the bottom female panel units to overhang the frame. (An alternative construction, 'but less sturdy, would be to mount the mating male panel units directly to the :bottom female panel units, in place of the frame mounting as just described.)
The units are seated in close proximity in the frame, to make the panel as compact as possible, separated only by the shielding spring 40 which extends transversely across the opening 18 between the panel units.
The frame 10 is mounted to the bulkhead by means of bolts 13. Each female panel unit 20 is snapped into the frame by first tilting the unit so that one end 45a thereof is fitted into the groove 24 until it engages seat 28. The other end 45]; of the female panel is then leveled until the taper 36 slides over the spring-loaded plunger 32 which snaps into recess 38 of the unit. This brings the remaining end of the female panel unit into groove 26. In this position the female panel unit may lbe manually released by withdrawing the pin handle 34 of the plunger. The female panel unit is supported in this position by the bulkhead 14, the opening of which corresponds to the dimensions of the portion 28 of the female panel unit which extends therethrough.
The male panel unit 22 is then fitted to the corresponding female panel unit 20, the aligning pins 46 guid ing and polarizing the two units. Finally, the attaching and separating bolts 56 are rotated until the sockets 64 are threadedly engaged and secured thereto. Reversing the rotation of the bolts S6 lwill cause an automatic separation of the panel units, disconnecting the electrical parts.
The `frame may be made of die cast aluminum alloy to give the assembly strength and reduce weight. The panel units are preferably made of insulating material such as thermosetting plastic, i.e. an alkyd resin Ior a ceramic which will withstand heat. Suitable connectors are employed with appropriate means :for anchoring them in their respective panel units. The shielding spring may be made of beryllium copper.
In the foregoing I have provided a multiple panel unit having any desired number of panel units. The panel units may be individually removed for replacement or interchange providing maximum flexibility.
By the use of attaching and separating bolts in free floating sockets positioned in the frame, I am able to secure the panel units quickly and safely and, if desired, mechanically separate the electrical connections as a group.
I have thus described my invention, but I desire it understood that it is not confined to the particular forms or uses shown and described, the same being merely illustrative, and that the invention may be carried out in other ways without departing from the spirit of my invention and, therefore, I claim broadly the right to employ all equivalent instrumentalities coming Within the scope of the appended claims, and by means of which, objects of my invention are attained and new results accomplished, as it is obvious that the particular embodiments herein shown and described are only some of the many that can be employed to attain these objects and accomplish these results.
