Definitions
- electrical connector can be interpreted in a generic sense to connote virtually any type of device for connecting the end of a wire to a similar device or another mating part. In a narrower sense, however, the term electrical connector is often employed with specific reference to a device comprising a dielectric body, such as a cylindrical or rectangular body, having a number of openings therethrough in which there are mounted contacts, such as contact pins or contact sockets.
- An electrical connector of this type is engageable with, and disengageable from, a complementary connector to form a disengageable electrical and mechanical connection between a large number of wires.
- the present invention is related to electrical connectors of this type.
- a first connector is inserted through an opening in a first panel and clamped or secured thereto.
- the second connector is similarly secured to a second panel so that when the panels are moved relatively towards each other with the two connector parts or halves in axial alignment, the contacts in the connectors will be engaged with each other.
- the first panel may constitute one side of an enclosure or box and the second panel in which the second electrical connector is mounted may constitute a cover for the box so that when the cover is assembled to the box the two connector parts will be engaged with each other.
- the two electrical connector parts must be in axial alignment with each other, it follows that the two panels must be substantially parallel to each other and the open ings in the panels in which the connectors are mounted must be in axial alignment with each other.
- the contacts within the connectors are relatively small and may have a diameter of about 0.030 or less and a great number of contacts are frequently provided in a single connector assembly, for example, connectors having as high as 100 contacts therein are not uncommon. It will be appreciated then that if the connectors are rigidly mounted in the panels and the panels are adapted to be secured in spaced apart relation by some rigid clamping or securing means such as screws, the entire assembly must be manufactured to a very high degree of dimensional precision.
- the openings in the panels in which the connectors are fitted must be provided on very carefully positioned centers and the clamping or securing means for holding the panels in spaced relationship to each other must also be precisely positioned and must be manufactured to close dimensional tolerances to assure axial alignment of the connectors.
- the manufacturing techniques required to provide such close dimensional control are always more expensive than would be the case if a wider range of tolerances were permitted. It would be desirable then to provide a mounting means for the connectors in the panels which would not impose unreasonably precise manufacturing requirements and which would permit the connectors to be assembled to the panels in a minimum time but which at the same time would insure accurate and precise mating of the connectors in the two panels.
- an electrical connector having a mounting means thereon which permits limited movement of the connector body to permit the connector to align itself with a mating connector upon movement of the two connector parts into engagement with each other.
- a more specific object is to provide a mounting means for a connector assembly which permits both lateral and oblique reorientation of the connector body upon its being engaged with a complementary connector body.
- a still further object of the invention is to provide a connector assembly having a self-contained means for resiliently urging the contacts of the connector into the mating contacts of a complementary connector which means does not rely upon the spacing of the panels in which the connector assemblies are mounted.
- a connector body having a radially extending collar intermediate its ends.
- a cylindrical guide member is concentrically arranged around the connector body and extends beyond the one end thereof in which the ends of the contacts within the connector are disposed.
- This guide member has an inwardly turned flange at its end which abuts the collar mentioned above so that the guide cannot move off of the connector body and past the one end of the connector body.
- a housing is provided in surrounding relationship to the connector body and also in surrounding and partially overlapping relationship with the guide member.
- An inwardly turned flange on this housing engages a radially extending flange on the guide member so that the housing cannot move axially of the connector body towards the end which is opposite to the one end on which the guide is provided.
- the housing has an inwardly oifset portion which defines a shoulder in opposition to the previously mentioned flange on the guide and a spring is interposed between this shoulder and the collar on the guide to urge the guide member against the flange of the housing. This arrangement permits relative movement of the guide member towards the other end of the connector and towards the reduced diameter portion of the housing.
- the reduced diameter portion of the housing which is formed by the inwardly offset end is adapted to be inserted into an opening in a panel and a clamping means such as a threaded nut on the end of the connector body, clamps the connector to the panel.
- the arrangement is such that the connector body and the guide can be displaced laterally of their normal axis and can also be displaced obliquely of this axis so that if a mating complementary connector is moved into engagement with a connector having the above-described panel mounting, the connector body can realign itself relative to the panel until it is in axial alignment with the complementary connector.
- FIGURE 1 is a perspective view of one form of panel mounting means for electrical connectors illustrating one environment in which the invention is used;
- FIGURE 2 is a side view partially in section showing a connector assembly in accordance with the invention mounted in a panel and also showing a complementary connector in a panel parallel thereto;
- FIGURES 3, 4 and 5 are views similar to FIGURE 2 but illustrating the manner in which a connector panel mounted in accordance with the invention will realign itself in the event of initial non-alignment with the complementary connector in the mating panel;
- FIGURE 6 is a view taken along the lines 6-6 of FIGURE 2;
- FIGURE 7 is a view illustrating axial displacement of a connector mounted in accordance with the invention.
- FIGURE 8 is a side view of an alternative embodiment.
- FIGURE 1 wherein the reference numerals 2 denote connectorassemblies mounted in accordance with the invention in the web portion 7 of a channel-shaped bracket having legs 6 which are secured, as by welding, to the back wall of a housing or box 8.
- This box has inwardly turned flanges on the open face thereof to provide a bearing surface for a cover plate 12, a clamping means in the form of threaded openings 14, 16 through which screws are adapted to be inserted, being provided in the cover plate and flanges 1.0 to secure the cover plate in place.
- the complementary connectors 4 are rigidly mounted in openings in the cover plate so that when the plate is secured in place as by fasteners, the complementary connectors 4 will be mated with the connectors 2 on the web 7 of the bracket.
- Each conhector in the disclosed form of the invention contains a dielectric insert 18, in which a plurality of openings w are provided for the contacts.
- the connector part 4 contains socket-type contacts (which are not visible) for the reception of pins in the connector 2. As is evident from the drawing, these contacts are very closely spaced togetherand are relatively small so that the two connector 'parts 2, 4 must be in substantial axial alignment when they are engaged with each other in order to avoid damage to the contacts and to achieve proper electrical contact of the parts.
- the essential purpose of the instant invention then is to provide a mounting means for the connector 2 which will assure proper mating of the complementary connectors 4 with the connectors 2 even if, for example, the flanges 10 are not parallel to the plane of the web 7, or if the openings in the web or the cover plate 12 are .not perfectly located.
- the disclosed embodiment of the invention comprises a connector body which includes a cylindrical metal-lie shell 22, in which the dielectric insert 18 is mounted.
- a connector body which includes a cylindrical metal-lie shell 22, in which the dielectric insert 18 is mounted.
- the connector body portion 22 is adapted to receive the end 28 of theconnector part4 which has :a radial flange 32 by means-of which it is secured to the panel 12.
- radially extending pins 30 are provided at spaced intervals around the circumference of the reduced diameter end of connector part 4 to assist in centering it as will be apparent from the description below.
- the righthand end of the connector part 4 is threaded as shown at 34.
- the ends of these shells are threaded as shown to permit the parts to be coupled to a cable clamp or to adapt them to be otherwise assembled to other connectors.
- the insert 18 within shell 28 is keyed in the same manner as the insert in shell 22, e.g. by means of :a key and slot similar to that shown at 21.
- the external surface of extension 26 is provided with keys 29, the sides of which taper towards each other at their ends 31. Additionally, the surfaces of these keys at their ends are inclined towards the shell axis. These keys are received within complementary keyways (not shown) on the internal surface of shell member 28, the tapered ends of the keys being provided for the purpose of guiding the two connector parts into engagement with each other in the event of initial non-alignment.
- a cylindrical guide member 36 surrounds the end of shell 22 and has on its left-hand end an inwardly turned flange 38 which normally abuts collar 24 to prevent rightward movement of the guide 36 from the position shown in the drawing.
- the edge of this-inwardly directed flange 38 bears against the cylindrical surface of the portion 22 of the shell so that it is not capable of substantial lateral or oblique movement relative to the shell; in other words, the inwardy turned flange should lit the cylindrical surface 22 with sufficient closeness so that the hood member or guide 36 will be maintained in substantial axial alignment with the shell member and with the extension 26 thereof.
- the guide is not secured to the shell although it may be so secured, or integral with the shell if desired.
- a radially outwardly extending collar or flange 42 which abuts a radially inwardly directed flange 46 of a cylindrical housing 44 which is in surrounding and overlapping relationship to the guide 36.
- Flange 42 of the guide 36 is slightly shorter than inwardly directed flange 46 on housing 44 so that the shell 22 and the guide can be later-ally or obliquely moved from the position shown in FIGURE 2 and out of exact concentricity with housing 44. This feature is of importance to the utility of the device as will be apparent from the description below.
- the left-hand end'of the housing 44 is radially inwardly offset to define a shoulder 4-8 which is opposed to, and spaced from, the face of flange 42 and a compressed helical spring 50 is interposed between this flange and the shoulder 48.
- This spring normally biases the flange 42 against the inwardly directed flange 46 of the housing so that the parts are substantially in their normal positions in FIGURE 2.
- the reduced diameter end 52 of the housing extends into the opening in the panel 7 and the entire assembly is clamped in place by means of :a nut 54threaded onto the left-hand end of the shell 22.
- This reduced diameter portion should have a relatively snug fit within the opening although the opening will ordinarily be slightly oversized relative to the end of the housing to permit facile assembly of the connector to the panel.
- connectors 2, 4 must be mounted in the panels 7, 12 in proper rotational alignment with each other. As shown in FIGURE 6, such rotstional alignment is achieved by means of a key 56 in the connector shell 22 which extends through a slot in housing 44 and through a notch 58 in the panel opening.
- the notch 58 is slightly oversized to permit swiveling of the housing relative to the panel as described below.
- a similar key arrangement is provided for the connector part 4 although the notch is not oversized since this part is rigidly mounted.
- the parts Under ideal conditions of use, the parts will be in substantially perfect alignment as shown in FIGURE 2, and under these circumstances when the plate 12 is moved relatively towards the plate 7 (as when the cover plate is fastened onto the box in FIGURE 1) the connector part 4 will move axially over the extension 26 of the connector part 2.
- the ideal and perfeet conditions are not always obtained, and if dimensional perfection is not achieved the situation shown in FIGURE 3 may exist; that is, the plane of panel 12 may extend obliquely of the plane of panel 7 rather than parallel thereto.
- the axes, denoted by the letters A-A and BB, of the connectors will not be in alignment with each other but will extend obliquely of each other.
- the condition shown in FIGURE 3 will arise, for example, if one of the legs of the bracket 6 is shorter than the other of the legs, or if the back of the box 8 is not substantially parallel to the four inwardly directed flanges 10 on the front thereof.
- FIGURE 4 it will be noted that the reduced diameter end of the shell has entered the flared-out mouth of the guide 36 and the radially extending pins 30 are beginning to contact the inside surface of the guide.
- this connector part Upon further leftward movement of the panel 12 and connector part 4, this connector part will push the guide member 36 upwardly and, since the guide member itself is not laterally movable with respect to the shell 22 because of the relatively close fit of the flange 38 on the surface of the shell, the shell itself will also be cocked upwardly as shown in FIGURE until the axes A-A, B-B are brought into coincidence.
- FIG- URE 5 it will be noted at FIG- URE 5 that the upper portion of the helical spring as viewed in this figure is further compressed during movement of the plate 12 towards the plate 7 and that such compression of the spring is necessary in order to achieve the axial alignment of the connector parts.
- the invention has beneficial effects in situations other than the precise situation shown in FIGURES 3-5.
- the panels 7-12 might be in perfect parallelism with each other, but the openings in the panels may be offset somewhat due to imperfect manufacturing techniques.
- the axes AA, B-B would be parallel to, but offset from, each other.
- a connector in accordance with the invention would again permit lateral movement of the connector body 22 relative to its housing in order that it might align itself with the complementary connector body 4.
- FIGURE 7 shows still another situation in which the practice of the invention will achieve substantially perfect mating of two connector parts in spite of imperfections in the panels.
- the two panels 7, 12 are provided with clamping means to secure them in spaced-apart relationship, indicated by the letter C.
- the clamping means for the panels can be visualized as the flanges and the screws which extend through the openings 14, 16 of FIGURE 1. It is assumed in FIGURE 7, however, that the clamping means are imperfect in that the spacing C is less than the spacing which would cause the two connector parts to be properly mated. It will be apparent upon reflection that if the connectors were rigidly mounted in their panels, this improper spacing of the panels would prevent clamping of the panels together, i.e.
- the cover 12 could not be clamped against the flanges 10 because the connector parts would become fully engaged before the cover would be fully seated on the panels.
- the panels can be clamped as shown since the connector body 22 will axially retract against the force of spring 50, as shown in FIGURE 8.
- this spring should exert a force against flange 42. which is at least equal to the force required to engage the connectors with each other so that the two con- 6 nector parts will be urged into complete engagement under the conditions of FIGURE 7.
- the connector part 2 is shown as be ing assembled to a panel.
- the user of the connector will assemble it to the panel himself and the connector part itself will be supplied by the manufacturer with the guide and housing in place and with these parts retained on the connector shell by means of the nut 54.
- the user then wishes to assemble this part of the connector to a panel, he need merely remove the nut 54, insert the connector through the opening in the panel as shown in FIGURE 2, and thread the nut onto the end of the connector to clamp it in place.
- the mounting means which permits movement of the connector shell after it has been mounted in the panel is self-contained on the connector shell, and it is unnecessary to work with any additional parts beyond those which were previously used with the prior art type connectors when mounting the connector in a panel.
- FIGURE 8 shows an alternative embodiment of the invention in which the housing 44' constitutes a simple spring seat for a volute spring 50'.
- This spring seat functions to maintain the spring in substantially concentric alignment with the panel opening and is clamped to the panel in the same manner as the housing 44 of FIG- URE 2. It will also be noted that the spring in FIG- URE 8 bears against the outwardly turned end of the guide member rather than an intermediate flange as in FIGURE 2.
- FIGURE 8 serves the same purpose as the embodiment of FIGURE 2 in that it permits axial, lateral, and swiveling motion of the connector body relative to the panel.
- a comparative advantage of the embodiment of FIGURE 12 over that of FIGURE 8 is that in FIGURE 2, the spring is maintained in its compressed condition by the housing and particularly by the arrangement of the flanges 42, 46.
- the spring can be compressed when the connector parts are assembled by the manufacturer and the person who mounts the assembly on the panel 7 need not compress the spring at the time of mounting.
- the spring must be compressed at the time the assembly is mounted on the panel.
- this shortcoming of the FIGURE 8 embodiment can be overcome by compressing the spring 50' when the parts are assembled by the manufacturer and the spring can be held in the compressed condition by wrapping wire around the coils. This wrapping would then be removed after the assembly had been mounted on the panel to permit the spring to perform its intended function.
- FIGURE 1 The invention has been herein explained and illustrated in only one environment, the relatively simple arrangement of FIGURE 1.
- the utility of the invention is not limited to this arrangement but extends to many other connect-or mounting arrangements where the connector parts are secured to panels.
- the principles of the invention are applicable to non-circular connectors of the type commonly used.
