Electrical connector part, in particular for an automotive vehicle part
The present invention relates to an electrical connector part adapted to be mounted on an automotive vehicle part, such as the vehicle floor, and to mate with an electrical connector counterpart mounted on a vehicle equipment part, such as a removable seat, the connector part comprising:
- a body provided to be fixed to said vehicle part; and
- a contact element accommodated in said body and having conductive units. The invention is usable as an underseat connector for an automotive vehicle seat, or for any vehicle equipment adapted to be removably fixed to a vehicle part such as the vehicle structure: a door, the hood, an optical block, an audio or video system, etc. The invention is also usable to make assembly of said equipment to said vehicle part easier in an assembling workshop or factory.
The document US 6,652,304 B1 discloses an electrical connector part of the type described hereinabove.
However, in this connector system, the conductive units project from the body and thus could be exposed to any damage which may occur, for instance when the vehicle equipment is being installed, especially in case this installation is brutal, the equipment being dropped or impulsed. The object of the invention is to overcome such a risk by providing a system for electrically connecting an automotive vehicle equipment to a vehicle part having an improved safety.
Accordingly, the invention provides an electrical connector part of the type described above, characterized in that the connector part further comprises means for displacing said contact element between a retracted position wherein the conductive units are within the body and thus protected against mechanical damage, and a mating position wherein the contact element projects from the body to allow an electrical contact between the conductive units and corresponding conductive parts of the connector counterpart. The invention further provides an electrical connector system comprising the features of claims 1 to 12 considered either independently or in combination.
The invention further provides an automotive vehicle arrangement comprising:
- a vehicle equipment, such as a removable seat; - a vehicle part, such as the vehicle floor; and
- an electrical connection device as described above, designed to electrically connect said vehicle equipment to said vehicle part.
Other characteristics and advantages of the invention will become apparent upon reading of the detailed description which follows and which will be understood by referring to the attached drawings, wherein:

Figure 2 showing the underseat connector being brought toward an ON position; and
- Figure 6 is a view similar to Figure 5 showing the underseat connector in the ON position.
An automotive vehicle arrangement 8 comprising a removable seat 10, the vehicle floor 12 and an electrical connection device 13 for electrically connecting the seat 10 to the floor 12 is illustrated in Figure 1.
The automotive vehicle seat 10 is removably mounted on the floor 12 of the automotive vehicle (not shown) and equipped with the connection device 13 comprising an underseat connector 14 and controlling means connected thereto as it will be further described below.
The electrical underseat connector system 14 comprises an electrical connector part 16 attached to the vehicle floor 12 and an electrical connector counterpart 18 attached to the vehicle seat 10.
The connector part 16 is adapted to mate with the connector counterpart 18 according to a mating axis Z-Z which is vertical.
As seen in Figures 2 and 3, the connector part 16 comprises a body 20 intended to be fixed to the vehicle floor 12, a movable contact element 22 accomodated in the body 20 and means 23 for displacing the contact element 22 between a retracted position within the body 20 in which it is protected against mechanical damage, and a mating position partially outside the body 20 to allow an electrical connection. Advantageously the contact element 22, when in the retracted position, is enclosed within the body 20.
The body 20 has a generally parallelepipedic shape and comprises a bottom portion 24 and a lid portion 26. The lid portion 26 is provided with a flat top face 28 such that it is lined up with the vehicle floor 12 when the body 20 is mounted thereon.
The contact element 22 has an upper face 25 which, when 22 is in the retracted position, is advantageously lined up with the flat top face 28 of lid portion 26, or slightly retracted inside the lid portion. The contact element 22 has an inverted-L shaped insulative body 30 and conductive units 32, such as conductive tracks or pads, supported at an upper end of the insulative body 30. The conductive units 32, generally flat and rectangular, are transversally aligned on a vertical wall 34 of the contact element 22. The contact element 22 further comprises, at a lower end 36 thereof, a threaded hole 38. The displacing means 23 comprises a motor 40, usually an electrical motor, connected to a transmission roller 42 and a threaded rod 44. The transmission roller 42 engages a rod roller 46 secured at an upper end of the threaded rod 44 which is adapted to be inserted through the threaded hole 38 of the contact element 22.
The connector part 16 further comprises a first sealing means, for example a sealing joint, disposed in an opening 48 provided in the lid portion 26 and surrounding the contact element 22 to sealably mount the latter relative to the body 20.
The connector part 16 comprises a second sealing means or sealing joint, also disposed in the lid portion 26 along another opening 50 provided therein to sealably mount the body 20 relative to the vehicle floor 12.
Referring now to Figures 2 and 4, the connector counterpart 18 comprises a holder 52 intended to be mounted on the vehicle seat 10, a contact module 54 accommodated in the holder 52 and a biasing means 56 adapted to elastically bias the contact module 54 toward a rest position. The holder 52 is of a generally parallelepipedic shape with a top wall 52T, a bottom wall 52U and four vertical side walls 52A-D. At its bottom wall 52U, the body 52 is provided with a funnel-shaped mating opening 58 which permits the contact element 22 of the connector part 16 to pass therethrough upon mating of the connector part 16 and counterpart 18. The contact module 54 is hinged to and within the holder 52 to pivot between the rest position toward which it is elastically biased by the biasing means 56, and an active position toward which it is inevitably displaced by the movement of the contact element 22, thereby engaging the contact element 22. More precisely, referring to Figures 5 and 6, the contact module 54 comprises two rectangular blocks 60, 62 facing each other, the block 60 comprising conductive parts 64 designed to mate with the conductive units 32 of the contact element 22. For this purpose, the conductive parts 64 have a hook end protruding from a vertical wall 66 of the block 60. Each block 60, 62 has two opposite side walls 68, each side wall 68 being provided with a pivot protrusion 70 of cylindrical shape. Each protrusion 70 extends through a hole 72 correspondingly provided in the side walls 52B, 52D of the holder 52 such that each block 60, 62 is capable of pivoting relative to the holder 52.
The biasing means 56, one for each block 60, 62, comprises a tongue made of a resilient material and folded over itself to take the shape of an inverted-V. Each tongue 56 is lodged in a recess 74 provided in the inner face of the side walls 52A, 52C of the holder 52, and is held in place by the blocks 60, 62.
Preferentially each block 60,62 has also one or more actuating arm 75 protruding out of vertical wall 66, advantageously in the vicinity of side wall 68. Installation of the connector counterpart 18 on the vehicle seat 10 is assured by a float mounting of the counterpart 18 with respect to the seat 10.
According to the invention, means (not shown) for controlling the motor 40 is provided. This controlling means is adapted to actuate the motor 40 responsive to a detection of the vehicle seat 10 being fixed in position to the vehicle floor 12. When the seat 10 is remote from the floor 12, the connector system 14 is in an
OFF position illustrated in Figure 2 wherein the motor 40 is off, the contact element 22 is in its retracted position, completely lodged in the body 20, and the blocks 60, 62 are in their rest position, biased by the tongues 56 to be tilted relative to the vertical mating axis Z-Z. Once the seat 10 is secured to the floor 12, a sensor detects this condition and directs a signal to the controlling means to actuate the motor 40.
The motor 40 is then on and drives in rotation the transmission roller 42 which drives in rotation the threaded rod 44 via the rod roller 46. The threaded rod 44, being engaged with the complementarily threaded hole 38 of the contact element 22, moves the contact element 22 for an upwardly linear movement toward the connector counterpart 18 as illustrated in Figure 5.
During upward movement of the contact element 22, the latter passes through the mating opening 58 of the holder 52. The upper face 25 of element 22 moves against the actuating arms 75 and pushes them up which biases the blocks 60, 62 to pivot and reach their active position.
The connector system 14 is then in its ON position shown in Figure 6, wherein the conductive parts 64 of the block 60 mate with the conductive units 32 of the contact element 22, thereby allowing establishing an electrical contact therebetween.
When it is desired to remove the seat 10 from the floor 12, a signal is directed to the controlling means to actuate the motor 40 and move the contact element 22 downwardly. The connector part 16 and counterpart 18 are disengaged from each other and the seat 10 can be removed. The system 14 can also be automatically disconnected in case of accident.
The arrangement of this electrical system permits to catch up longitudinal and transversal shifts in position due to manufacturing misalignments, thanks to the float mounting of the connector counterpart 18 with respect to the seat 10, the realignment of the connector part 16 with counterpart 18 being performed by the action of the contact element 22 on the funnel-shaped opening 58.
Moreover, the length of the conductive units 32 also permits to catch up vertical shifts in position due to the same problems.
Therefore, the electrical connector of the invention provides a safe and reliable system for electrically connecting an automotive vehicle equipment to a vehicle part, ensuring a good electrical contact while preventing the various components to be damaged.
