Definitions
- Electrical connection assembly for a printed circuit board comprising a connector, a support spacer and a handling member.
- the present invention relates to an electrical connection assembly for a printed circuit board, the assembly being of the type comprising: - a connector itself comprising at least one shielding housing, an electrically insulating body disposed at least partially in the housing shielding, contacts comprising bent pins, the ends of which are intended to be electrically connected to conductive tracks of the printed circuit board, - a support spacer on the printed circuit board, the support spacer being fixed to the connector, and - a handling member providing a substantially planar suction surface, the handling member being fixed to the connector.
- the invention applies in particular to connectors generally called "D-sub". Connection assemblies of the aforementioned type are known.
- the spacer is used to guarantee the height between the connector and the printed circuit board so that it corresponds to a height standardized among the heights known as Eurostyle, Europe or USA.
- the handling member allows the connector to be sucked in and handled by an automatic connector positioning machine on printed circuit boards. Thus, the costs associated with positioning such a connector on a printed circuit board can be reduced.
- the spacer is formed by a riveted bracket on the shielding box.
- the handling member is formed by an additional part also fixed to the shielding box.
- Such an electrical connection assembly also has a high cost.
- An object of the invention is to solve this problem by providing an electrical connection assembly of the aforementioned type which is of lower cost.
- the invention relates to an electrical connection assembly of the aforementioned type, characterized in that the support spacer and the handling member are formed by the same single piece.
- the assembly may include one or more of the following characteristics, taken alone or in any technically possible combination: - the monobloc piece is electrically conductive, - the monobloc piece is electrically connected to the shielding box to ensure its electrical connection to a track on the printed circuit board forming a mass, - the monobloc piece comprises at least one harpoon for retaining the connector on the printed circuit board, - the monobloc piece comprises an upper core forming the handling member and at least one lateral wing extending the core and forming the support spacer, - the retaining harpoon extends the lateral wing, - the monobloc piece comprises two lateral wings extending the core and forming spacers support, and the lateral wings are arranged on either side of the connector, - the monobloc part has a general shape of inverted U, - the su
- FIG. 1 is a schematic exploded perspective view of a electrical connection assembly according to the invention
- FIG. 2 is a schematic perspective view of the electrical connection assembly of Figure 1 assembled.
- Figures 1 and 2 illustrate an electrical connection assembly 1 for a printed circuit board.
- This assembly 1 comprises a connector 3 and a support 5.
- the connector 3 is a conventional D-sub type connector for angle mounting and comprises: - a front shielding box 7, - a rear shielding box 9, - a body electrically insulating 11 housed almost entirely in the housings 7 and 9, and - contacts 13 partly embedded in the electrically insulating body 11.
- the housings 7 and 9 are extended laterally by fixing plates, referenced respectively 15 and 17, and which are for example crimped to each other by tongues 19.
- the plates 15 and 17 are crossed by two fixing holes 21, one of which is disposed to the right of the housings 7 and 9 and the other to the left of the housings 7 and 9.
- the contacts 13 protrude rearwardly outside the electrically insulating body 11 by means of pins 23 bent downwards and whose lower ends 25 are intended to be connected electrically. only to conductive tracks on the printed circuit board.
- the front ends of the contacts 13, which are not visible in the figures, define in the front housing 7 an electrical connection plug, for example of female configuration, and of substantially D-shaped outer contour corresponding to the current section of the housing before 7.
- the support 5 is a one-piece metal part in the general shape of an inverted U, formed for example by cutting and bending a sheet.
- the support 5 thus comprises an upper core 27 and two lateral wings 29.
- the core 27 is a plate which has a substantially planar upper surface 31 allowing it to be sucked up in order to manipulate the connector 3.
- the lateral wings 29 extend the soul 27 down.
- the lateral wings 29 are each provided at the front with a fixing lug 33 folded laterally outwards and are each pierced with an orifice 35.
- Two harpoons 37 are cut from each lateral wing 29 and have been folded laterally towards the outside in relation to it. It will be noted that the lower hooks 39 of the harpoons 37 are situated at a level lower than that of the lower edges 41 of the wings 29.
- the support 5 is fixed to the connector 3, for example by means of two rivets 43 engaged in the orifices 35 and 21 placed opposite. Thus, and as illustrated by FIG. 2, the support 5 is fixed to the housings 7 and 9 and the lugs 33 of the support 5 are pressed against the plates 17 of the housing 9. Thus, the housings 7 and 9 and the support 5 are connected electrically.
- the core 27 is then disposed above the rear housing 9, opposite the lower ends 25 of the bent pins 23.
- the upper planar surface 31 is accessible from above the assembly 1.
- the lateral wings 29 extend down along the rear housing 9 and the insulating body 11.
- the support 5 envelops the rear housing 9, the rear region of the insulating body 11 and the angled pins 23.
- the flat surface 31 being accessible from above, a suction device of an automatic positioning machine can suck the core 27 to handle the assembly 1 and position the connector 3 on a printed circuit board.
- This machine can then plug the lower ends 25 of the bent pins 23 into corresponding openings on the printed circuit board and engage the harpoons 37 in corresponding openings on the printed circuit board.
- the harpoons 37 then provide, thanks to their hooks 39, a retention of the connector 3 relative to the printed circuit board.
- the edges 41 of the wings 29 are then supported on the printed circuit board. Then, the ends 25 of the pins 23 and the harpoons 37 on the printed circuit board can be welded, for example by a reflow method or a wave method. Thus, the contacts 13 are electrically connected by their lower ends 25 to electrically conductive tracks of the printed circuit board and the harpoons 37 are also electrically connected to a conductive track of the printed circuit board forming a mass.
- the support 5 thus ensures ground continuity between the shielding boxes 7 and 9 and the ground track of the printed circuit board. Furthermore, the lateral wings 29, whose lower edges 41 are supported on the printed circuit board, guarantee the height between the connector 3 and the upper surface of the printed circuit board to meet the manufacturing standard chosen.
- the wings 29 therefore fulfill a spacer function while the core 27 has allowed the manipulation of the assembly 1.
- the support 5 being in one piece, the number of parts constituting the assembly 1 is reduced and its cost is therefore weak.
- the support 5 may not have a harpoon 37 for retaining with respect to a printed circuit board.
- the support 5 may not fulfill a mass continuity function and therefore be made of an electrically insulating material.
- the connector 3 may not include a rear shielding box 9.
