Definitions

  • An electrical connector comprising a pair of telescopically assembled parts for joining axially aligned male and female conductors and having a coupling nut threaded onto one of the parts and engaging portions of the other part for coupling the interfitted parts in an assembled relationship, wherein resilient locking means are interposed between the coupling nut and the pair of parts for restraining uncoupling movement of the nut and for producing an audible sound indicating proper joinder of the parts.
  • the present invention relates generally to electrical connectors, and more particularly refers to an electrical connector having a threaded coupling nut and resilient locking means for restraining and uncoupling movement of the nut and for indicating whenever telescopically interrelated connector parts are securely assembled.
  • Multipin or multicontact electrical connectors generally comprise a pair of cylindrical parts having telescopically interfitting portions and housing complemental mating electrical conductors.
  • Various means for coupling the parts in an assembled relationship may be provided, for example means forming a bayonet-type connection, means forming push-pull frictional couplers or a threaded coupling nut.
  • the threaded coupling nut has the most mechanically reliable configuration, but, unlike other coupling means, the nut does not inherently include means for resisting uncoupling when the connector is subjected to vibrations or means for audibly indicating when the telescoped parts, and thus the conductors are securely and firmly joined.
  • electrical connectors When utilized in aircraft and space vehicles, electrical connectors are oftentimes subjected to high vibrations and may be located or mounted in virtually inaccessible locations. Further, such applications require that the connector be resistant to uncoupling in order to maintain the conductor electrical integrity during service.
  • electrical connectors of the type having male and female telescopically assembled parts held in assembled relationship by a threaded coupling nut have locking means interposed between the coupling nut and the telescopically assembled parts for resisting uncoupling rotation of the nut whenever the connector parts are firmly joined and for producing an audible indication of firm coupling.
  • the locking means comprise first means attached to the coupling nut for corotation therewith as the same is threadedly engaged unto one of the mating connector parts and second means having a portion interposed between a forwardmost end edge of one of the mating connector parts and an annular stop surface formed on the other part.
  • second means is freely rotatable relative to the mating connector parts and is firmly clamped between the forwardmost edge and the annular stop surface whenever the connector parts are firmly coupled in an assembled relationship.
  • One of the locking means has a series of circumferentially or angularly spaced recesses for receiving aligned ones of a plurality of circumferentially or angularly spaced projections resiliently mounted on an opposite one of the locking means.
  • the second locking means is clamped and restrained against rotation relative to the connector parts so that further rotation of the coupling nut moves the resiliently mounted projections to circumferentially adjacent ones of the recesses, thereby producing a clicking sound to indicate firm assembly of the connector.
  • a positive force is required to move the resiliently mounted projections between the recesses, a positive force is also required to rotate the coupling nut in an uncoupling direction, thereby providing a restraining force to prevent inadvertent uncoupling when the connector is subjected to vibrations.
  • the first locking means comprise axially extending knurls or ridges formed on an innerbore of the coupling nut, and the second locking means has radially extending, resiliently mounted projections received within aligned ones of recesses defined between the ridges.

  • the main shell member 13 of the female part lll has a threaded portion 27 at a rear end thereof for engagement with a locking nut 28.
  • An exemplary assembly as illustrated in FIG. 1, includes male and female portions effecting multiple electric circuitry connections.
  • the female part 11 houses a plurality of female contact members as at 29, each contact member forming a socket 31 for receiving a reduced end portion as at 32 of one of a plurality of male contact members as at 33 mounted within the male part 12.

  • locking means generally indicated at 55 and interposed between the coupling nut 16 and the telescopically interfitted parts 11 and 12, restrains the coupling nut 16 against uncoupling rotation and produces an audible indication or clicking sound whenever the connector parts are firmly and securely joined.
  • the locking means 55 generally comprise a first means or member attached to or carried by the coupling nut for corotation therewith and a second means or member surrounding the male part 12 and being normally rotatable relative to the telescopically interfitted parts.
  • Portions of the second means interposed between the stop surface 22 and the forwardmost end edge 23 of the sleeve 14 are firmly clamped and restrained against rotation relative to the parts 11 and 12 whenever those parts are securely joined or coupled, thereby enabling relative rotation between the first and second locking means upon rotation of the coupling nut past the firmly coupled position.

  • the coupling nut 16 threadedly engages onto the threads 15 formed on the cylindrical sleeve 14 of the female part 11
  • the forwardmost end edge 23 of the sleeve is drawn toward the stop surface 22, and, when the telescopically interfitted parts 11 and 12 are firmly coupled, the radially inturned flange 62 is firmly clamped between the end edge 23 and the stop surface 22, thereby preventing rotation of the second locking member 59 relative to the telescopically interfitted parts 11 and 12.
  • Further coupling rotation of the nut 16 causes relative rotational movement between the plurality of angularly spaced recesses 57 and the projections 58.
  • Means resiliently mounting the projections 58 on the second locking member 59 for enabling the projections to resiliently skip over the ridges 56 and thus move between adjacent ones of the recesses 57 comprise a plurality of circumferentially extending slots as at 68 cut into the body portion 61 and angularly spaced therearound relative to the projections 58 to form a plurality of circumferentially extending strips as at 69 defined between each slot 68 and an axial end edge 71 of the cylindrical body 61 and having one of the projections 58 mounted midway between circumferentially opposite ends of an associated one of the strips.
  • the strips, and thus the projections 58 mounted thereon may resiliently flex inwardly of the cylindrical body, thereby permitting the ridges 56 to depress the projections 58 for producing a ratchetlike effeet as the coupling nut 16 further threads onto the sleeve 14 subsequent to firmly clamping the radially inturned flange 62 between the sleeve end edge 23 and the stop surface 22.
