Definitions
- the present invention relates to a plug-in coupling for fluidic systems, with two coupling parts which can be connected to one another and each have latching means which are assigned to one another for mutual connection, one of the coupling parts having an end-side connecting piece section with which it can be inserted into the other coupling part, and one of the coupling parts has at least one end-side, holding its locking means holding portion, with which it engages over an outer peripheral contour of the other coupling part, on which the associated complementary locking means are formed.
- connection arrangement has a housing part (first coupling part) and a core part (second coupling part), each of which can be permanently connected at one end to a hose, pipe or device.
- a seal is arranged between the core and the housing part.
- a socket is formed in the housing part for engagement in the core part, the outside diameter of which is slightly smaller than the inside diameter of the core part.
- an inner diameter of a sleeve-like section (holding section) of the housing part is larger than the outer diameter of the core part.
- Each stop surface is perpendicular or in the form of an undercut inclined to the longitudinal axis of the housing part, the clear distance between the cams being approximately as large as the outer diameter of the core part.
- the housing part consists of an elastic Material, wherein the cams are formed on a ring provided with two legs. The cams formed in this way represent latching means for latching the housing part to the core part.
- a ring On the outside of the core part is a ring with a run-up surface directed towards its free end and with a stop surface opposite this, which is inclined perpendicularly or in the form of an undercut to the longitudinal axis of the core part runs, trained.
- the ring designed in this way represents a complementary locking means for locking the core part to the housing part.
- a fork with conical prongs can be inserted between the legs on the housing part and the ring on the core part, whereby the legs are pressed radially outwards, which in turn raises the cams over the outer diameter of the ring on the core part, so that the two coupling parts can be detached from one another by pulling them apart.
- the need to use such a special tool is also not to be regarded as advantageous for many applications.
- the immediate latching of the two coupling parts to be connected to one another is an advantage in terms of ensuring a secure and stable connection.
- a quick connection similar to that described above is also known from German utility model DE 87 11 334 U1.
- This known quick connection also has a core part and a housing part, each of which is firmly connected at one end to a hose, pipe or device, a seal being arranged between the core and housing part.
- a ring is also formed on the outside of the core part with a run-up surface directed towards the free end and with a stop surface opposite it, the inside diameter of the housing part being larger than the outside diameter of the core part, and at least two diametrically opposed ones at the free end of the inner wall of the housing part Cam formed with run-up surfaces facing the free end and opposite stop surfaces, the clear distance between the cams is about as large as that Outside diameter of the core part, and the housing part consists of an elastic material.
- the housing part does not have an inner socket for engagement in the core part.
- the housing can be elliptical or oval in the area of the cams, the cams being arranged on the smaller axis of the ellipse.
- the cams In order to release the connection, the cams can be lifted out of the locked position by compressing the elliptical or oval housing in the direction of the major axis of the ellipse.
- the advantage of the quick connection is that, among other things, it consists of only two parts with associated sealing rings, since a quick coupling with an additional, releasable locking part, as described in DE 31 43 015 A1, does not enable robot assembly.
- a disadvantage, however, is that external pressure on the housing can already lead to an unwanted loosening of the connected parts.
- the detachable plug connection serves to receive a tubular plug-in part (first coupling part) with a circumferential retaining rib.
- the plug connection here comprises a cylindrical receiving housing (second coupling part) with a central receiving space for inserting the plug-in part and a separate spring element made of hard-elastic plastic, which is provided with circular, inwardly directed, elastically spring-mounting holding edges for engaging behind the retaining rib after the plug-in part has been pressed in.
- the spring element For assembly, the spring element must be pressed together before the plug-in part can be inserted and inserted into the receiving space through a lateral opening in the receiving housing.
- the holding edges are then fixed in the axial direction, in particular in the closed position, by means of guide bodies which penetrate recesses located in the outer wall.
- the holding edges have on the insertion side for the insertion part in the insertion direction obliquely merging ramp surfaces, through which they are pushed apart when inserting the insertion part.
- the retaining edges are connected to one another at their ends via V-shaped spring webs, the connection points being arranged in each case in the region of an opening in the receiving housing and being able to be pressed in from the outside by means of arcuate pressure plates.
- the present invention has for its object to provide a plug-in coupling for fluidic systems of the type mentioned, i.e. in particular with direct latching of a first and a second coupling part, which is characterized by a simplified disassembly option while ensuring simple assembly and high connection stability.
- this is achieved by a separate release part held in the assembled state on the first coupling part and / or on the second coupling part for separating the latching connection between the latching means of the first coupling part and the latching means of the second coupling part.
- the release part provided according to the invention advantageously represents a "built-in release tool" for the plug-in coupling which can be integrated into the coupling connection, but without it taking over the function of a connecting, holding or locking part.
- the mutually complementary locking means of the first and the second coupling part which guarantee a safe and stable connection formation, serve exclusively for the mutual connection of the coupling parts.
- An advantage of the separate release part is also that the material from which it is made can be matched to the material, in particular the first but also the second coupling part, a targeted and optimized setting of release forces for the connection between the locking means being possible is.
- the holding section is formed from two diametrically opposed, elastically resiliently expandable holding arms
- the release part By operating the release part, the holding arms are spread and thus the snap connection between the first and second coupling part canceled. The parts can be pulled apart and then the holding arms are automatically reset.
- the spring and release forces (spreading position of the holding arms) can be optimally adapted by a different choice of material for the holding arms and the release part.
- the release part can be made of plastic or metal, whereby it is particularly advantageous in terms of a simple production method with high functionality, the release part in one piece, e.g. as an injection molded part.
- the release part can advantageously, at least in sections, consist of an elastically resilient or a rigid material - with regard to manual actuating forces and mechanical stresses that usually occur during operation. Different sections, for example rigid and / or elastic sections, can be connected to one another via hinges, such as film hinges, in the release part.
- the release part which in its basic form can preferably be formed essentially as a ring, in which case it can then have a round, oval or polygonal shape in the specific embodiment, if appropriate also in sections, at least one actuating section for manual operation, opening sections, in particular for spreading the holding arms, and in each case arranged between the actuating and opening sections and pressure transmission sections.
- These pressure transmission sections transmit the force received via the actuation sections to the opening sections.
- the pressure transmission sections can act both on the actuation fields and on the opening sections either on the outside or in the middle.
- a reduction in the actuating and actuating forces can basically be achieved in that joints, preferably in the form of film hinges, are attached to the ends of the pressure transmission sections. As a result, the pressure transmission sections can align better in the direction of the force flow.
- appropriately designed guiding means can be provided on these and on the first coupling part so that the opening sections only move radially outwards when the actuating sections are actuated.
- One or two actuating sections can preferably be provided on the release part.
- a release part with an actuating section can usefully be used in places where the first coupling part is only accessible from one side due to the installation space or the shape of the connector.
- the release part comprises an actuating section, two opening sections each arranged between the actuating section and a pressure transmission section and optionally a connecting section connecting the opening sections to one another.
- An essentially fork-shaped basic shape of the release part (without a connecting section) is also possible.
- a release part with two actuation sections should always be used if a part with only one actuation section does not have to be used for the aforementioned reasons.
- two diametrically opposed actuating sections have the advantage of symmetry, which makes it easier to automatically assemble the release part and provides an optimum force effect.
- the release part provided according to the invention is characterized by simple assembly. In principle, it only needs to be inserted in the axial direction into an intermediate space between the connecting piece section and the holding section of the first coupling part that carries the latching means. In order to fix the release part even better against loss on the first coupling part, appropriately designed locking means can be provided on these two parts, in particular on the opening sections and on the holding arms.

- a plug-in coupling according to the invention for fluidic systems in particular a quick plug-in coupling, comprises two tubular coupling parts 1, 2 which can be connected to one another and which have latching means 3, 4 for mutual connection.
- the first coupling part 1 (individual illustration in FIG. 1) has, on the one hand, an end section 5 with which it can be inserted into the second coupling part 2, as shown in FIG. 4 (and additionally in two further main views FIGS. 5 and 6).
- the first coupling part 1 has at least one end-side holding section 6 which carries its latching means 3, which in all the embodiments described below is formed by two diametrically opposed holding arms and with which it has an outer peripheral contour of the second coupling part 2 on which the latching means 3 of the First coupling part 1 complementary locking means 4 are formed, overlaps.
- the latching means 3 of the first coupling part 1 are each formed by a latching edge 3a, which - in the plug-in direction of the second coupling part 2 (arrow E in FIGS. 4, 5, 12 and 17) is preceded by a contact surface 3b in a manner known per se (cf. 1 and 4).
- the complementary latching means 4 of the second coupling part 2 are formed from an, in particular terminally arranged, annular circumferential flange section (cf. FIGS. 4 and 5). (The reference number 4 is used in the following both for "latching means” as well as for "flange section", since only constructions of the latching means which are formed from a flange section are specifically described below.
- a plug-in coupling according to the invention comprises a separate release part LT (individual illustration in FIG. 2), which is held in the assembled state (FIG. 4) or already in a pre-assembled state (FIG. 3) on the first coupling part 1 and / or on the second coupling part 2 and serves to separate the locking connection between the locking means 3 of the first coupling part 1 and the locking means 4 of the second coupling part 2.
- a separate release part LT (individual illustration in FIG. 2), which is held in the assembled state (FIG. 4) or already in a pre-assembled state (FIG. 3) on the first coupling part 1 and / or on the second coupling part 2 and serves to separate the locking connection between the locking means 3 of the first coupling part 1 and the locking means 4 of the second coupling part 2.
- the holding section 6 of the first coupling part which carries the latching means 3, can be formed from two diametrically opposed, elastically expandable holding arms that can be spread apart.
- the reference number 6 is used in the following for both "holding section” and for “holding arms”, since only embodiments of the holding section which are formed from holding arms are specifically described below.
- the possible spreading movement of the holding arms 6 for releasing the first coupling part 1 of the second coupling part 2 is indicated by the arrows labeled S in FIG. 4.
- the holding arms 6 are integrally formed on a pipe section 7 of the first coupling part 1, on which a line connection 8 is formed on one end and the nozzle section 5 is formed on the other end.
- the line connection 8 and the nozzle section 5 are arranged coaxially (thru axis XX in FIG. 4), that is to say in alignment with one another.
- the nozzle section 5 has a circumferential groove 5a for receiving a seal, such as an O-ring. It can also be seen from FIG. 4 that the nozzle section 5 also has a stop 5b arranged circumferentially, in particular interacting with the flange section 4 of the second coupling part 2, in order to limit its insertion depth into the second coupling part 2.
- the second coupling part 2 also has a line connection 9 at one end, in particular on its side facing away from the flange section 4 (FIGS. 4, 9).
- the release part LT provided according to the invention can be easily assembled or pre-assembled in the first coupling part 1. For this purpose, it is inserted only axially in the plug-in direction of the second coupling part (arrow E in FIGS. 4, 12) into a space (not designated in more detail) between the connecting piece section 5 and the holding section 6 of the first coupling part 1 which carries the latching means 3. Then the two coupling parts 1, 2 can be inserted into one another and locked together.
- the release part LT has at least one actuating section 10 in all versions. Preferably, as shown in FIG. 2, it has two plate-like actuating sections 10 lying opposite one another. Furthermore, FIG. 2 shows that the release part LT indicates at least two opening sections 11, preferably two opposite, in particular plate-like opening sections 11 for contact a radially inward surface of the holding arms 6 and for radially spreading the holding arms 6. Finally, FIG. 2 shows that the release part LT has at least two pressure transmission sections 12, preferably four, in particular rod-shaped, pressure transmission sections 12, each of which is centered on the actuating sections 10 and the opening sections 11. One each Pressure transmission section 12 connects an actuating section 10 with an opening section 11.
- the release part LT is thus essentially designed in its basic form as a ring, this design also including that the release part LT, optionally also in sections, can have a round, oval or polygonal shape.
- the material of the release part LT can consist of plastic or metal.
- the release part LT - in the sense of an advantageously automatic return from the spreading position after the actuation force ceases to exist - as a whole, but also in sections, consist of an elastically resilient material.
- the release part LT it is also possible for the release part LT to consist at least in sections of a rigid material.
- the pressure transmission sections 12 of the release part LT each have a concave curvature. This also serves to optimize the power flow.
- the pressure transmission sections 12 arched inward to the thru-axle X-X result in the forces for deflection (break point) of the pressure transmission sections 12 being reduced and that the pressure transmission sections 12 sliding well when supported on this first coupling part 1 with support on this part.
- FIGS. 10 and 13 show an embodiment of the release part LT, in which it comprises an actuating section 10, two opening sections 11, each arranged between the actuating section 10 and a pressure transmission section 12, and a connecting section 14 connecting the opening sections 11 to one another. Further such designs are also shown in FIGS. 10 and 13 and in FIGS. 16 to 19.
- the connecting section 14 "replaces" an actuating section 10, so that the release part LT in the above-mentioned embodiments has only one actuating section 10. It has already been mentioned that a release part LT with an actuating section 10 can expediently be used when the installation space or the shape of the first coupling part 1 should make this necessary.
- the opening sections 11 of the release part LT each have stiffening elements 15, 16.
- These stiffening elements 15, 16 are, on the one hand, ribs 15 projecting at right angles, which, in addition to their stiffening function, can also take on a guiding function (FIGS. 9, 10), and on the other hand, encompassing the holding arms 6 in the assembled or pre-assembled state (FIG. 14) Ring approaches 16 (Fig. 11, 13). The latter protect the holding arms 6 and, when the first coupling part 1 is pressurized in the inserted state, bring about an additional stiffening of the same.
- the release part LT provided according to the invention is not limited to a specific design of the first coupling part 1, but can be used in a wide variety of designs, in particular with a design of the holding section 6 as holding arms 6.
- the release part LT provided according to the invention can also be combined with a plug-in coupling arrangement in which the holding section 6 is located on the second coupling part 2 and the latching means, such as the flange section 4, is located on the first coupling part 1.
- the use of a release part LT with only one actuating section 10 proves to be particularly expedient. It is also possible for the release part LT to be essentially fork-shaped in its basic shape, deviating from a closed ring shape, as shown in FIG. 15. Due to the absence of a second actuating section 10 and a connecting section 14, the stiffness of the release part LT is reduced and the necessary actuating force is reduced.
- the guide grooves 18a can be located above all in the radially outward-facing surface of the opening sections 11, which comes into contact with the holding arms 6, the corresponding guide webs 17a then being located on the complementary, radially inwardly facing contact surface of the holding arms 6.
- the opening sections 11 have stiffening elements in the form of ring lugs 16 encompassing the holding arms 6, it is also possible for guide grooves 18b in each case to be located in the radially inward-facing surface of the ring lugs 16, which on the Holding arms 6 comes to rest, in which case the corresponding guide webs 17b are in turn located on the complementary, radially outwardly facing contact surface of the holding arms 6.
- the guide elements 17a, 17b, 18a, 18b arranged parallel to the plug-in axis X-X advantageously have the effect that when the actuating sections 10 (arrow P) are actuated, the opening sections 11 can only move radially outwards (arrow S) and are not displaced tangentially.
- the guide elements 17a, 17b, 18a, 18b are also designed in such a way that they prevent mutual rotation of the release part LT and the first coupling part 1, but permit a relative movement relative to one another parallel to the plug-in axis X-X.
- all the illustrated embodiments of the invention show a detail of how the separate release part LT on the first coupling part 1 can already be held in the preassembly state (FIGS. 3, 14, 19).
- This detail consists in that on the one hand on the release part LT, in particular on its opening sections 11 radially on the outside, and on the other hand on the holding section 6, in particular on the holding arms 6, of the first coupling part 1 radially on the inside complementary stops 19, 20, in particular mutually Assembly or pre-assembly state opposing contact edges 19 of the release part LT (Fig. 2, 4, 7 to 11, 13 and 15 to 17) and contact edges 20 of the first coupling part 1 (Fig. 1, 4 and 12) are arranged.
- edges 19, 20 prevent the release part LT (in the direction E) from being pushed too far into the first coupling part 1 (movement limitation).
- an inclined surface 19a can advantageously be arranged in front of the respective contact edge 19 of the release part LT as a contact surface, as can also be seen from the illustrations of the release parts LT mentioned .
- FIG. 4 shows an advantageous possibility of captively holding the separate release part LT on the first coupling part 1 in the preassembly state.
- the latching edge 22 of the first coupling part 1 can advantageously be formed by the end face of the stop 5b arranged circumferentially on the connecting piece section 5 with its surface pointing in the plugging direction E to limit the depth of insertion of the first coupling part 1 into the second coupling part 2.
- these locking elements 21, 22 prevent an axially parallel backward displacement (against the direction E) of the release part LT with respect to the first coupling part 1.
- a locking edge 21 of the release part can LT advantageously have an inclined surface 21a arranged upstream as a contact surface, as can also be seen in the illustrations of the release parts LT shown in FIGS. 4 and 13.
- FIGS. 17 to 19 the release part LT and the first coupling part 1 are locked together several times or are secured in multiple directions against relative movement to one another. This can be done in a first pre-assembly step from the position shown in FIG. 17 by axially inserting the release part LT into the first coupling part 1 in the direction of arrow E in FIG. 17, which in turn also indicates the direction of insertion of the second coupling part, and optionally subsequently done by locking to secure against an axial return movement of the release part LT. The release part LT then assumes the position shown in FIG. 18.
- the first step is followed by a second preassembly step, which consists in a tangential displacement of the release part LT in the first coupling part 1 (arrow T in FIG. 18) and causes a latching that the Secures release part LT against opposite (back) movement.
- This state is shown in FIG. 19.
- guides stop 5b, guide stop 5c in FIGS. 17 to 19
- guides can be provided on the first coupling part 1.
- FIGS. 15 and 16 are particularly suitable as release parts LT for this type of preassembly.
- complementary locking elements on the two coupling parts 1, 2, which are designed in the manner of the locking edges 21, 22 extending perpendicular to the plug-in axis X-X, are suitable.
- locking elements arranged parallel to the plug-in axis XX can advantageously be used, in particular according to the type of the guide elements 17a, 18a described above, wherein in turn the contact elements 23a, 23b which run obliquely to the tangential insertion direction T can in particular be arranged in front of the locking elements of the release part LT , In the absence of a connecting section 14, the release part LT can also be plugged and locked with the coupling parts 1, 2 only by a tangential displacement (arrow T in FIG. 18).
- FIGS. 20 to 22 The basic embodiment of the further embodiment of a release part LT of a plug-in coupling according to the invention shown in FIGS. 20 to 22 in a perspective view (FIG. 20), front view (FIG. 21) and top view (FIG. 22) corresponds to the embodiment according to FIG. 15.
- a notch 24 which is centrally arranged, in particular with a semicircular cross section, and which serves as a position indicator for the isolating part LT in the case of fully automatic assembly.
- the pressure transmission section 12 does not act on the inside via the film hinge 13, but rather approximately in the middle of the opening section 11.
- the loosening part LT has on the inside of its opening section 11 a guide projection 25 with an inlet slope 25a (FIG. 22), which with the nozzle section 5 during the radial or axial assembly of the first coupling part 1 cooperates and a self-centering of the release part LT in the first coupling part 1 - in the present case, the connector - is used.
- an inclined surface 23a In front of the radially outer guide groove 18a of the respective opening section 11 of the release part LT there is - as in the embodiment according to FIG. 15 - in each case an inclined surface 23a, as the top view of the release part LT in FIG. 22 shows.
- These inclined surfaces 23a which are formed symmetrically to one another on both sides, converge in the tangential insertion direction T of the release part LT and, as already explained, serve as contact surfaces.
- the inclined surface 19b extends - apart from that also in the interruption in FIG. 15 through the guide groove 18a - but almost over almost the entire height H of the outside of the opening section 11, but in a remaining height section of the outside - in a part of the opening section shown on the underside in FIG. 21 11 - there is a recess 19c which fulfills the same function as the contact edge 19 in FIG. 15.
- the inclined surface 19b extends over more than 85% of the height H of the outside of the opening section, while its extension in the embodiment according to FIG 15, as can be seen from the corresponding geometrical proportions n is only a maximum of about 25% to 30%.
- the comparatively longer inclined surface 19b has the effect that, when the release section 10 is actuated in the insertion direction T, a force acts on the holding arms (holding sections 6) from the opening sections 11 and a contact point AP is formed between the two parts, which in comparison with the representations in FIG. 15 / Fig. 21 migrates downward in FIG. 21.
- a lever arm which becomes effective on the holding arm is lengthened, as a result of which an actuating force to be applied to the releasing part LT for releasing is advantageously reduced.
- the invention is not limited to the exemplary embodiments shown, but also encompasses all the embodiments having the same effect in the sense of the invention, in particular the kinematic reversal (exchange of the arrangement) with regard to the design of the nozzle section 5 on a coupling part and the associated insertion opening on the other coupling part, ie in other words that the coupling part with nozzle section 5 or the coupling part with insertion opening for the nozzle section 5 can have the holding section 6, in which case the corresponding latching means 3, 4 in adapted Are to be designed.
- first coupling part 1 and the release part LT can be designed in different forms.
- a coupling part or both coupling parts 1, 2 can also be directly connected or connected to devices on one side without departing from the scope of the invention.
- the invention has not yet been limited to the combination of features defined in claim 1, but can also be defined by any other combination of specific features of all the individual features disclosed in total. This means that in principle practically every single feature of claim 1 can be omitted or replaced by at least one single feature disclosed elsewhere in the application. In this respect, claim 1 is only to be understood as a first attempt at formulation for an invention.
