Definitions

  • ABSTRACT Conductor-in-slot connecting device comprises a first formed tubular member having an axially extending open seam and having sidewalls on each side of the seam.
  • a second tubular member is formed from material in the sidewalls of the first tubular member and has a second open seam.
  • the edges of the second tubular member penetrate the insulation of the conductor and establish electrical contact with the conducting core.
  • the edges of the first tubular member penetrate the insulation only and function as a strain relief for the conductor.
  • No. 347,956 also has a back cover for its housing which functions as a strain relief for the conductors so that if a tensile force is applied to a conductor, the force will not be transmitted to the electrical connection between the conductor and the connecting device.
  • a further object is to provide a tubular conductor-in-slot connecting device which can be used under a wide variety of circumstances, for example, as a free standing connecting device on a printed circuit board or as the wire connecting portion of a terminal in a multi-contact electrical connector.
  • a further object is to provide a tubular connecting device which is so formed that it is resistant to damage prior to its being put to use (during handling and shipping) and after it is put to use.
  • FIG. 1 is a perspective view of a portion of a printed circuit board having connecting devices in accordance with the invention mounted thereon.
  • FIG. 2 is a perspective view of one of the connecting devices shown in FIG. 1.
  • FIG. 3 is a frontal view of the connecting device prior to insertion of a conductor into its conductor slots.
  • FIG. 4 is a view similar to FIG. 3 but showing a single wire inserted into the slots.
  • FIG. 5 is a view taken along the lines 5-5 of FIG. 4.
  • the herein disclosed embodiment of the invention comprises a stamped and formed connecting device 2 which is adapted to be mounted on a printed circuit board 8 to connect insulated wires 4 to conductors 6 on the upper or lower sides of the board.
  • the connecting device comprises a first tubular member 10 having a web 12 and sidewalls 14 which extend parallel to each other from the web and which are bent inwardly and towards each other at 16 to define an axially extending open seam generally indicated at 17.
  • the seam has an entry portion 18 and an intermediate relatively wide intermediate portion 20 which defines downwardly facing (as viewed in FIG. 3) shoulder 21.
  • the lower portion of the seam is simply sheared as shown at 23 and prior to insertion of the wire, there is no gap between the opposed edges as there is in the upper and intermediate portions 18, 20 of the seam.
  • a second tubular member 22 is formed from material struck from the sidewalls 14 of the first tubular member 10 and this second tubular member has sidewalls 24 which are curved inwardly and towards each other as shown at 26.
  • there is a narrow gap between the edges of the seam which may be of the same width of that of the entry portion 18 of the seam in the outer tubular member. The width of this gap is less than the diameter of the conducting core 5 of the wire so that the edges of the seam (which serves as a wire-receiving slot) will penetrate the insulation of the wire and establish electrical contact with the conducting core.
  • the sidewalls 24 are sheared as shown at 30 on each side of the seam at two spaced-apart locations, these shear lines extending lateraliy away from the slot to punched holes 32 which serve to reduce perpetration of cracks into the sidewalls from the ends of the shear lines.
  • these transverse shears divide the second tubular member into three separate spring systems so that a conductor can be positioned in each one of these spring system and will not be effected by a conductor in an adjacent spring system.
  • the shoulder 31 at the lower end of the intermediate portion 20 of the seam or slot in the first tubular member 10 is co-planar with the lower-end of the second tubular member 22.
  • the disclosed embodiment of the invention has downwardly extending feet 34 which project from its sidewalls 14 to facilitate mounting in holes in the printed circuit board and soldering to the conductors of the board.
  • connecting devices in accordance with the invention can also be used as part of a contact terminal, for example, of the type shown in the above-identified application Ser. No. 347,956 and can be used under many other circumstances.
  • the insulated wires 4 are merely moved laterally of their axes into the wire-receiving slots of the first and second tubular members 10,22.
  • the end portion of the wire will move into the conductor receiving slot (the open seam) of the first tubular member 10.
  • the sidewalls 14 of the first tubular member form a relatively light spring system because of the fact that they are, relatively wide and additionally because of the fact that the central portions of these sidewalls have been removed to form the second tubular member 22.
  • the first tubular member 14 thus constitutes a light spring system which will yield or flex outwardly during insertion of the wire.
  • the second tubular member 22 on the other hand, constitutes a relatively stiff spring system so that the edges of the sidewalls will penetrate the insulation and establish electrical contact with the core when the wire is moved into the wire receiving slot (the open seam) of the second tubular member.
  • the insulation of the wire will be held between the edges of the slot of the portion of the first tubular member and the electrical connection of the core of the wire to the connecting device will be at the edges of the slot in the second tubular will be as shown in H0. 5. If a tensile pull is applied to the wire 4, it will be transmitted to the terminal through the outer or first tubular member 14 and will largely bi-pass the electrical connection between the second tubular member and the conducting core.
  • Connecting devices in accordance with the invention can be made in relatively small sizes for printed circuit board applications as shown. For example, good results have been obtained with the connecting device formed from No. 4 hard cartridge brass having a thickness of 0.012 inch and having a height (between the ends of the tubular member 14) of 0.275 inch. Larger connecting devices can be made in accordance with the invention if desired and the dimensions presented above do not necessarily represent the smallest connecting device which can be produced in accordance with the invention.
  • a salient advantage of the invention is that an integral strain relief for the conductor is provided as discussed above. It should also be noted that the inner tubular member is surrounded by the first tubular member 14 so that the first tubular member protects the second tubular member against damage during handling and after the terminal is put to use.
  • the inter tubular member 22 is more susceptible to damage since the width of its slot must be held to relatively close tolerances while the outer tubular member can be abused to some extent during handling without the loss of its function.
  • a stamped and formed connecting device comprising a first formed tubular member having a first axially extending open seam, said first seam serving as a first conductor-receiving slot having opposed edges whereby upon movement of a conductor laterally of its axis and into said first slot, said edges engage said conductor, the improvement to said device comprising:
  • a second tubular member having a second axially extending open seam which is in alignment with said first open seam in said tubular member, said second tubular member and said first tubular member having a common bight portion, and said second tubular member having side portions which are struck from side portions of said first tubular member, said second tubular member being contained within said tubular member each said side portion of each said tubular membenbeing bent towards its opposing side portion at its free end, said free ends thus forming said conductor receiving slots, whereby upon movement of a conductor laterally of its axis into said first open seam and said second open seam from one end of said device, said conductor is engaged by edge portions of both of said open scams.
  • said first open slot having a relatively narrow entry portion at one end of said first tubular member and having an intermediate relatively wider portion, and a transversely extending shoulder between said entry portion and said intermediate portion whereby, said shoulder inhibits lateral movement of a conductor from said intermediate portion.
  • a connecting device for forming an electrical and mechanical connection to an insulated conductor comprising:
  • said first tubular member comprising a web and sidewalls, said sidewalls extending inwardly and towards each other, said first tubular member having a first axially extending open seam, said first open seam comprising a first conductor-receiving slot,
  • said second tubular member having a web and second sidewalls, said web of said second tubular member comprising an intermediate portion of the web of said first tubular member, said sidewalls of said second tubular member being struck from the sidewalls of said first tubular member, and said second tubular member having an axially extending open seam which is in alignment with said first axially extending open seam whereby,
  • An electrical connection of a conductor to a connecting device comprising:
  • said first tubular member comprising a web and sideserving as a second conductor-receiving slot
