Definitions

  • a pair of clamping members each have a pair of parallel legs which are joined together at one end by a transverse cross member and which terminate in footlike elements at their other ends.
  • the foot-like elements are substantially at right angles with the leg to which theyare attached.
  • Such foot-like members on each clamping member are passed through a pair of apertures in the connector in such a manner that said foot-like members on-the two clamping means face in opposite directions which permits insertion of said foot-like members in said apertures and further permits the two clamping members to be pivoted apart. Further, when the twoclamping members are pivoted together to grip the conductors between their transverse crossmembers, the foot-like members pivot in an outwardly directioniand become locked behind the connector wall in which said apertures are-formed. Securing means are pivoted together.
  • This invention relates generally to strain relief means for relieving strain on conductors secured within a connector, as for example, the strain created when a disconnection is made by pulling on the conductors, and more particularly the invention relates to a strain relief means which can be selectively employedor not employed with a connector and further to a strain relief means which can be installed and later removed after the conductors have been secured in the connector means.
  • strain relief mechanisms have involved means which are integral withthe connector itself and adapted to grip the conductor at a plurality of points. At one of the points, perhaps theforemost point, electrical connection is made. Strain relief is effected at the point behind such foremost point.
  • a second aim of the invention is a strain relief means which can be employed, or not employed, at the designers discretion, with any given connector.
  • a third object of the invention is a strain relief means which is removable from a connector to permit access to one or more conductors connected to said connector and which further functions to provide strain relief collectively for a plurality of conductors.
  • a fourth object of the invention is the improvement of strain relief means generally.
  • a strain relief means for one or more conductors secured within a connector comprising first and second aperture means formed either in the main body of said connector or in flanges or cars attached thereto, with a the cross-sectional area of each of said aperture means lying in a common plane and on either side of an opening through which extends the conductorssecured within the connector.
  • first and second clamping means each of which is constructed to have a pair of legs arranged in parallel manner and connected by a transverse element to form a resultant generally U-shaped element.
  • Each leg of said first and second clamping elements has a foot-like member attached thereto and positioned substantially normal to the direction of said leg and lying in a plane substantially normal to a plane joining together the centerlines of the legs.
  • each pair of legs are spaced apart a distance which is substantially equal to the distance between said first and second aperture means to enable the foot-like members attached to a given pair of legs to be inserted into the aperture means in such a manner that the clamping elements can be rotated about a pivot line defined by the junction between the ,pair of legs and the foot-like members attached thereto.
  • the two clamping means are positioned so that the two pairs of legsattached thereto extend through to the back side of the element containing said first and second aperture means, with the foot-like members on said two pairs of legs extending in opposite directions from each other on the back side of said element.
  • the two clamping means can be pivoted away from, or towards each other, about the pivot lines defined by the junctions between said pair of legs and the foot-like members attached thereto.
  • the transverse connecting elements, of the two clamping means are configured so that when said clamping means are pivoted together, the two transverse elements form a variable size aperture therebetween.
  • Such variable aperture varies in size 'in accordance with the proximity of the two transverse elements and for the purpose of accommodating various cross-sectional areas of conductors which pass therethrough.
  • securing mmeansare provided for securing said first and second clamping means together in selected degrees of proximity to provide for the various aperture sizes required to gripdifferent cross-sectional areas of conductors.
  • FIG. 1 is a perspective view of a typical connector and of the strain relief means both of which are shown in perspective and in disconnected relationship;
  • FIG. 2 shows connector means and two clamping members which form the strain relief means in connected relationship
  • FIG. 3 shows the connector means with the two clamping members connected thereto but pivoted apart to show how they are inserted into the connector.
  • the foot-like elements 111, 112, 113 and 114 are part of a pair of clamping elements 100 and 101. More specifically foot-like elements 111 and 112 are attached to the legs 107 and I08 of clamping member 100 and foot-like elements 113 and 114 are attached to legs 109 and 110 of clamping member 101.
  • Thetwo clamping members 100 and 101 are oriented with respect to each other in the manner shown'in FIG. 1. It'can be seen that the foot-like elements 111 and 112 of clamping element 100 point from the foot-like elements 113 and 114 of clamping element 101.. 1
  • the pair of legs 107 and 120 of clamping member 100 are joined together by a cross member 165.
  • the pair-of legs 109 and 110 of clamping member 101 are joined together by a cross-member 116.
  • Each -of the cross connecting members 165 and 116 has a concave arcuate section formed in the perimeter thereof. More specifically, an arcuate concave section 125 is formed in cross member 165 and a concave arcuate section 126 is formed in cross member 116.
  • the two concave arcuate sections 125 and 126 form a generally circularly shaped aperture through which the conductors pass.
  • the aforementioned aperture is variable in size and can be made smaller, if needed, in order to grip the conductors passing therethrough and provide the strain relief function needed.
  • arcuate concave sections 125 and 126 are each formed in a particular manner to optimize the conductor gripping capability as the two clamping members 100 and 101 are brought together. More specifically, the surface 134, which defines a portion of arcuate section 126, approaches a beveled surface 135. on the outside of surface 140 in clamping element 100 when the clamping elements 100 and 101 are pivoted together in the assembled position, as shown in FIG. 2. In a similar manner the surface 132, which defines a portion of arcuate section 125 of clamping element 100 approaches the beveled surface 133 of clamping means 101 and on the outside of surface 139.
  • the two clamping means 100 and 101 become interlocked when in a closed position in such a manner as to prevent axial movement, i.e., movement along the major axis of legs 107-110' with respect to each other, and also to add structural strength to the assembled strain relief structure.
  • clamping elements 100 and 101 are shown with their two pairs of legs 107, 108, 109, and 110 inserted through the apertures 105 and 106 in connector portion 102.
  • the flanges 150, 151 of clamping element 100 and the flanges 152, 153 of clamping element 101 are shown abutting up against the surface of connector portion 102.
  • the foot-like members 111, 1 12, 113 and 114 extend through the two apertures 105, 106 of connector portion 102. It is apparent that to insert the said foot-like elements 111, 112, 113 and 114 into the apertures 105 and 106 it is necessary to have the two clamping means and 101 pivoted apart from each other as shown generally in FIG. 3. Once both clamping elements 100 and 101, i.e., the foot-like members are inserted through the apertures 105, 106, the clamping elements 100 and 101 can be brought together in the position shown in FIG. 2. In the closed position of FIG. 2 the conductors 149 are shown as passing through the aperture 148 formed by the two clamping elements 100 and 101.
  • FIG. 3 there is a detail showing how the foot-like members 111 114 of the two clamping elements 100 and 101 are inserted in apertures and l06provided therefor inconnector 102.
  • each of the foot-like elements has a rounded heel portion such as heel portion 158'of foot-like member 112 in FIG. 1.
  • These rounded'heel portions enable the insertion of the legs of the clamping elements 100 and 101 through apertures 105'and 106, and also'enables the pivoting of clamping elements 100 and 101 with'respect to each other after they are assembled within apertures 105 and 106.
  • the flanges 150, 151, 152 and 153 prevent the clamping elements 100 and 101 from further insertion into the apertures 105'and 106.
  • Strain relief means for conductors secured within a connector comprising:-
