Description

FICHE ELECTRIQUE DU TYPE FICHE ANGLAISE ELECTRICAL PLUG OF THE ENGLISH PLUG TYPE
La présente invention concerne une fiche électrique et notamment une fiche du type anglaise.The present invention relates to an electrical plug and in particular a plug of the English type.
Plus précisément, elle concerne une fiche électrique comprenant une embase qui porte des broches de connexion électrique, et un câble d'alimentation électrique, dont les fils électriques sont raccordés aux broches de connexion électrique.More specifically, it relates to an electrical plug comprising a base which carries electrical connection pins, and an electrical supply cable, the electrical wires of which are connected to the electrical connection pins.
Une telle fiche électrique doit répondre à certaines normes de sécurité qui imposent que le câble d'alimentation électrique soit solidarisé de l'embase, l'assemblage du câble et de l'embase devant résister à des efforts de torsion, de flexion et de traction exercés sur le câble.Such an electrical plug must meet certain safety standards which require that the electrical power cable be secured to the base, the assembly of the cable and the base must withstand torsional, bending and tensile forces. exerted on the cable.
Selon un premier mode de réalisation d'une fiche électrique de ce type déjà connue, l'assemblage du câble d'alimentation électrique et de l'embase portant les broches, est réalisé par un surmoulage de matière plastique du câble et de l'ensemble de la face arrière de l'embase sur laquelle le câble est préalablement positionné.According to a first embodiment of an electrical plug of this type already known, the assembly of the electrical power cable and the base carrying the pins is carried out by overmolding of plastic material of the cable and the assembly of the rear face of the base on which the cable is previously positioned.
Selon un deuxième mode de réalisation connu d'une telle fiche électrique, le câble d'alimentation électrique est localement surmoulé d'un matériau plastique afin de constituer un passe-fil, ce passe-fil étant alors emboîté sur l'embase de la fiche électrique. Les principaux inconvénients de ces deux modes de réalisation précités résident dans le fait qu'ils sont complexes et nécessitent une étape supplémentaire de surmoulage dans la fabrication de la fiche électrique, ce qui entraîne un surcoût de production.According to a second known embodiment of such an electrical plug, the electrical supply cable is locally overmolded with a plastic material in order to constitute a grommet, this grommet then being fitted onto the base of the plug electric. The main drawbacks of these two abovementioned embodiments lie in the fact that they are complex and require an additional overmolding step in the manufacture of the electrical plug, which leads to an additional production cost.
On connaît du document GB 2 273 006 une fiche électrique du même type, dans laquelle un manchon de guidage du câble denté est formé sur la queue de l'embase, les dents étant décalées les unes par rapport aux autres de manière à coincer le câble dans ce manchon de guidage.Document GB 2 273 006 discloses an electrical plug of the same type, in which a guide sleeve for the toothed cable is formed on the tail of the base, the teeth being offset relative to each other so as to wedge the cable. in this guide sleeve.
Une telle solution présente cependant plusieurs inconv énients. Tout d'abord, elle comporte une réalisation complexe. En outre, le manchon de guidage denté présente des dimensions particulières qui correspondent à un diamètre de câble particulier. Une telle fiche électrique ne peut pas alors être standardisée pour différentes grosseurs de câble.However, such a solution has several drawbacks. First of all, it involves a complex realization. In addition, the toothed guide sleeve has particular dimensions which correspond to a particular cable diameter. Such an electrical plug cannot then be standardized for different cable sizes.
Enfin, on connaît des documents US - 4 516 822 et FR - 2 403 664 des connecteurs électriques qui comportent chacun une embase, un câble d'alimentation électrique dont les fils électriques sont destinés à être raccordés avec des connexions électriques, et un élément de liaison en forme de U fixé sur l'embase à cheval sur le câble en s'appliquant contre celui-ci afin de le plaquer contre ladite embase et le maintenir sur cette dernière.Finally, there are known from documents US-4,516,822 and FR-2,403,664 electrical connectors which each comprise a receptacle, an electrical supply cable whose electrical wires are intended to be connected with electrical connections, and an element of U-shaped connection fixed on the base straddling the cable by pressing against this in order to press it against said base and maintain it thereon.
Le principal inconvénient de ces solutions, est que la solidarisation du câble d'alimentation électrique avec l'embase, au niveau de l'élément de liaison, est uniquement assurer par ce dernier qui est fixé par complémentarité de forme sur ladite embase. Ceci impose un serrage important du câble par ledit élément de liaison en forme de U, pour que l'assemblage résiste à des efforts de torsion, de flexion et de traction exercés sur le câble. Un tel serrage est difficile à réaliser et n'est pas toujours obtenu.The main drawback of these solutions is that the connection of the electrical power cable with the base, at the level of the connecting element, is only ensured by the latter which is fixed by form complementarity on said base. This requires significant tightening of the cable by said U-shaped connecting element, so that the assembly resists torsional, bending and tensile forces exerted on the cable. Such tightening is difficult to achieve and is not always obtained.
Afin de pallier les différents inconvénients de l'état de la technique précité, la présente invention propose une nouvelle fiche électrique du même type dans laquelle la solidarisation du câble d'alimentation électrique et de l'embase est réalisé de manière aisée avec un système unique pour une grande variété de câbles différents.In order to overcome the various drawbacks of the aforementioned prior art, the present invention provides a new electrical plug of the same type in which the connection of the electrical supply cable and the base is easily carried out with a single system. for a wide variety of different cables.
Plus particulièrement, la fiche électrique selon l'invention comporte un élément de liaison en forme de U fixé par complémentarité de forme sur l'embase, à cheval sur le câble d'alimentation électrique en s'appliquant contre celui-ci, afin de le plaquer contre l'embase et de le solidariser avec cette dernière. Elle est caractérisée en ce que l'embase comporte une surface d'appui sur laquelle est plaque le câble d'alimentation électrique par l'intermédiaire de l'élément de liaison en forme de U, conformée pour retenir par friction ledit câble d'alimentation électrique sur la surface d'appui. Ainsi, selon l'invention l'assemblage du câble électrique et de l'embase de la fiche électrique est réalisé de façon sûre, résistant aux tests de traction, flexion et torsion imposés par les normes de sécurité en vigueur, tout en permettant une fabrication rapide et économique de la fiche électrique. En effet, la combinaison de l'élément de liaison en forme de U monte à cheval sur le câble dans l'embase, et la surface d'appui apte à retenir par friction ledit câble sur ladite surface d'appui, permet d'assembler le câble électrique et l'embase de façon sûre en respectant les normes de sécurité imposées, tout en autorisant un serrage relativement faible du câble par ledit élément de liaison.More particularly, the electrical plug according to the invention comprises a U-shaped connecting element fixed by complementary shape on the base, straddling the electrical power cable by pressing against it, in order to press against the base and secure it with the latter. It is characterized in that the base has a bearing surface on which the electrical power cable is plate by means of the U-shaped connecting element, shaped to frictionally retain said power cable electric on the support surface. Thus, according to the invention, the assembly of the electric cable and the base of the electric plug is carried out in a safe manner, resistant to the tests of traction, bending and twisting imposed by the safety standards in force, while allowing manufacturing. fast and economical electrical plug. Indeed, the combination of the U-shaped connecting element straddles the cable in the base, and the bearing surface capable of frictionally retaining said cable on said bearing surface, makes it possible to assemble the electric cable and the base securely in compliance with the safety standards imposed, while allowing relatively weak tightening of the cable by said connecting element.
Selon un mode de réalisation de la fiche électrique conforme à l'invention, ladite surface d'appui de l'embase comporte des crans transversaux apte à retenir par friction le câble d'alimentation électrique sur ladite surface d'appui.According to one embodiment of the electrical plug according to the invention, said support surface of the base includes notches transverse capable of frictionally retaining the electric power cable on said bearing surface.
Selon un autre mode de réalisation de la fiche électrique conforme à l'invention, ladite surface d'appui de l'embase comporte en saillie des picots aptes à s'enfoncer localement dans la gaine du câble d'alimentation électrique pour retenir par friction ledit câble sur ladite surface d'appui.According to another embodiment of the electrical plug according to the invention, said bearing surface of the base has protruding pins capable of being inserted locally into the sheath of the electrical power cable to frictionally retain said cable on said bearing surface.
Suivant ce mode de réalisation, l'élément de liaison en forme de U comprend sur sa face interne destinée à s'appliquer contre le câble d'alimentation électrique, au moins un picot en saillie, apte à s'enfoncer localement dans la gaine dudit câble selon un sens opposé à celui des picots de la surface d'appui.According to this embodiment, the U-shaped connecting element comprises on its internal face intended to be applied against the electrical supply cable, at least one protruding pin, capable of being inserted locally into the sheath of said cable in a direction opposite to that of the pins on the bearing surface.
Selon une caractéristique particulièrement avantageuse de la fiche électrique selon l'invention, chaque branche de l'élément de liaison en forme de U comprend au moins une dent apte à s'accrocher dans un logement prévu dans l'embase à proximité de la surface d'appui apte à recevoir le câble de la surface d'appui.According to a particularly advantageous characteristic of the electrical plug according to the invention, each branch of the U-shaped connecting element comprises at least one tooth capable of hanging in a housing provided in the base close to the surface d support capable of receiving the cable from the support surface.

Depending on the mode embodiment shown in the figures, the base 100 is molded onto the pins 200, 300, 400 so that they each have an electrical connection part 201, 301, 401 projecting from the rear face 102 of the base 100 .
La fiche électrique représentée plus particulièrement sur la figure 2, comporte un câble d'alimentation électrique 500 dont les fils électriques 501, 502, 503 (ici partiellement représentés) sont destinés à être raccordés aux broches de connexion 200, 300, 400.The electrical plug shown more particularly in FIG. 2 comprises an electrical supply cable 500, the electrical wires 501, 502, 503 (here partially shown) are intended to be connected to the connection pins 200, 300, 400.

En particulier, cet élément de liaison 600, que l'on dénommera "cavalier" dans la suite du texte, présente deux branches 620, 630 verticales aptes à être engagées respectivement dans deux logements 130, 140 prévus dans l'embase 100 de part et d'autre de ladite surface d'appui 110 de sorte que la face interne 610 dudit cavalier 600 s'appuie sur ladite portion du câble d'alimentation électrique 500 afin de la plaquer contre la surface d'appui 110.In the connected position (not shown here), a portion of the power supply cable 500 located near the end of the sheath 510 of said power supply cable 500, is positioned against a bearing surface 1 10 formed on the rear face 102 of the tail of the base 100, the electrical wires 501, 502, 503 which emerge from the sheath 510 then being connected to the connection parts 201, 301, 401 of the electrical connection pins 200, 300, 400. in addition, as can be better seen in FIG. 2, the electrical plug comprises a U-shaped connecting element made of molded plastic, and intended to be fixed by complementarity d - shape on the rear face 102 of the base 100, straddling the electric power cable 500, pressing against it in order to secure it with said base 100. In particular, this connecting element 600, which will be called "jumper" in the following of text, has two vertical branches 620, 630 capable of being engaged respectively in two housings 130, 140 provided in the base 100 on either side of said bearing surface 110 so that the internal face 610 of said jumper 600 is supported on said portion of the power supply cable 500 in order to press it against the bearing surface 110.
Comme on peut mieux le voir sur la figure 3, une rangée de trois dents 621, 622, 623, 631 , 632, 633 est formée sur la face externe de chaque branche 620, 630 du cavalier 600 conférant à chaque branche 620, 630 un profil en crémaillère.As can best be seen in FIG. 3, a row of three teeth 621, 622, 623, 631, 632, 633 is formed on the external face of each branch 620, 630 of the jumper 600 giving each branch 620, 630 a rack profile.
Plus particulièrement, selon le mode de réalisation ici représenté (voir figure 3) chaque dent 621, 622, 623, 631, 632, 633 de chaque branche 620, 630 de l'élément de liaison en forme de U 600, s'étend de façon oblique par rapport à la direction longitudinale de ladite branche, en direction de la base 640 dudit élément de liaison 600. De plus, les logements 130, 140 prévus dans l'embase 100 pour le montage de l'élément de liaison comportent chacun un décrochement 131, 141 de forme complémentaire à celle des dents desdites branches. Le montage du cavalier 600 sur l'embase 100 est alors réalisé par la coopération d'une dent de chaque branche avec le décrochement complémentaire dans le logement correspondant de ladite embase. Le cavalier 600 peut être monté, par l'intermédiaire de ses branches présentant un profil de crémaillère, en fonction de la forme et/ou de la grosseur du câble électrique utilisé, selon trois positions différentes plus ou moins proches de l'embase, correspondant à l'accrochage d'une paire de dents dans lesdits logements prévus de part et d'autre de la surface d'appui de l'embase. On notera que selon des variantes de réalisation du cavalier non représentées, on peut envisager que un nombre plus ou moins élevé de dents par rangée pour autoriser un plus ou moins grand nombre de positionnement du cavalier sur l'embase.More particularly, according to the embodiment shown here (see FIG. 3) each tooth 621, 622, 623, 631, 632, 633 of each branch 620, 630 of the U-shaped connecting element 600, extends obliquely with respect to the longitudinal direction of said branch, in the direction of the base 640 of said connecting element 600. In addition, the housings 130, 140 provided in the base 100 for mounting the connecting element each have a recess 131, 141 of shape complementary to that of the teeth of said branches. The mounting of the jumper 600 on the base 100 is then carried out by the cooperation of a tooth of each branch with the complementary recess in the corresponding housing of said base. The jumper 600 can be mounted, via its branches having a rack profile, depending on the shape and / or the size of the electric cable used, in three different positions more or less close to the base, corresponding to the attachment of a pair of teeth in said housings provided on either side of the bearing surface of the base. It will be noted that, according to variant embodiments of the jumper, not shown, it can be envisaged that a greater or lesser number of teeth per row to allow a greater or lesser number of positioning of the jumper on the base.
I l convient de souligner que la mise en place du cavalier sur l'embase à cheval sur le câble est une opération simple et rapide.It should be emphasized that placing the jumper on the base straddling the cable is a quick and easy operation.
Par ailleurs, sur la figure 3, on distingue que la face interne 610 du cavalier 600, destinée à être appliquée contre le câble d'alimentation électrique 500, est pourvue d'une nervure 61 1. Lorsque le cavalier 600 est monté sur l'embase 100, à cheval sur le câble électrique 500, cette nervure 61 1 s'enfonce légèrement dans la gaine 510 dudit câble en provoquant localement une déformation plastique de la gaine 510, ce qui contribue au maintien du câble sur l'embase 100.Furthermore, in FIG. 3, it can be seen that the internal face 610 of the jumper 600, intended to be applied against the electric supply cable 500, is provided with a rib 61 1. When the jumper 600 is mounted on the base 100, straddling the electric cable 500, this rib 61 1 sinks slightly into the sheath 510 of said cable, locally causing plastic deformation of the sheath 510, which contributes to maintaining the cable on the base 100.
A cet effet, on notera sur la figure 2, que la surface d'appui 1 10 de l'embase 100, destinée à recevoir le câble électrique 500, est pourv ue d'un orifice 1 12 positionné en regard de la zone d'application de la nervure 61 1 du cavalier 600 sur le câble 500. Ainsi lors du montage du cavalier 600 à cheval sur le câble 500, ce dernier a tendance à s'enfoncer dans ledit orifice 1 12, ce qui facilite l'enfoncement de la nervure 61 1 du ca\ alier dans la gaine 510 du câble 500. Par ailleurs, on distingue sur la figure 2 que la surface d'appui 1 10 de l'embase sur laquelle est appliquée ladite portion de câble d'alimentation électrique 500, est conformée de façon à retenir par friction ladite portion de câble sur ladite surface d'appui 110 une fois que le cavalier 600 est monté sur l'embase, à cheval sur le câble. En particulier, ladite surface d'appui 110 comporte des crans 111 transversaux par rapport à la direction longitudinale du câble 500, distribués autour de l'orifice 112 et sur lesquels est appliquée la gaine 510 du câble 500.To this end, it will be noted in FIG. 2 that the bearing surface 110 of the base 100, intended to receive the electric cable 500, is provided with an orifice 12 positioned opposite the zone of application of the rib 61 1 of the jumper 600 on the cable 500. Thus when mounting the jumper 600 straddling the cable 500, the latter tends to sink into said orifice 1 12, which facilitates the insertion of the rib 61 1 of the ca \ alier in the sheath 510 of the cable 500. Furthermore, it can be seen in FIG. 2 that the bearing surface 110 of the base on which said portion of electric power cable 500 is applied, is shaped so as to frictionally retain said portion cable on said bearing surface 110 once the jumper 600 is mounted on the base, straddling the cable. In particular, said bearing surface 110 includes notches 111 transverse to the longitudinal direction of the cable 500, distributed around the orifice 112 and on which the sheath 510 of the cable 500 is applied.
On remarquera que la queue de l'embase 100 comporte une partie évasée en siège 120 en arrière de la surface d'appui 1 10, conformée pour éventuellement recevoir le câble sollicité en flexion, au cours de l'utilisation de la fiche électrique. Selon la variante de réalisation représentée sur la figure 7, la surface d"appui 110 comprend en saillie vers l'extérieur une rangée de trois picots 110a. Bien entendu, on peut envisager un nombre supérieur ou inférieur de picots. Ces picots 1 10a sont aptes à s'enfoncer dans la gaine 510 du câble électrique 500 pour la déformer localement afin de retenir par friction ledit câble 500 sur la surface d'appui 1 10. Le cavalier 600 comporte également sur la portion de sa face interne 610 placée parallèlement en regard de la surface d'appui 110, un picot 601 en saillie vers le câble, apte également à s'enfoncer dans la gaine 510 du câble électrique 500 lorsque ledit cavalier est fixé sur l'embase 100, à cheval sur la câble. Le picot 601 du cavlier 600 et les picots 1 10a de la surface d'appui 1 10 s'enfoncent dans la gaine 510 du câble 500 selon des sens opposés, formant ainsi une sorte de mâchoire de serrage.Note that the tail of the base 100 has a flared portion in seat 120 behind the bearing surface 1 10, shaped to optionally receive the cable stressed in bending, during the use of the electrical plug. According to the variant embodiment shown in FIG. 7, the bearing surface 110 comprises projecting outwards a row of three pins 110a. Of course, it is possible to envisage a higher or lower number of pins. These pins 1 10a are able to sink into the sheath 510 of the electric cable 500 to deform it locally in order to frictionally retain said cable 500 on the bearing surface 1 10. The jumper 600 also has on the portion of its internal face 610 placed parallel in look of the bearing surface 110, a pin 601 projecting towards the cable, also able to sink into the sheath 510 of the electric cable 500 when said jumper is fixed on the base 100, straddling the cable. pin 601 of the cavlier 600 and the pins 1 10a of the bearing surface 1 10 sink into the sheath 510 of the cable 500 in opposite directions, thus forming a sort of clamping jaw.
En outre, selon cette variante, la surface d'appui 1 10 comporte de chaque côté une paroi 110', 110". Ces parois parallèles 1 10', 1 10" sont constituées d'un matériau plastique rigide et toutefois suffisament souple pour se déformer localement sous l'action des nervures 61 1 du cavalier 610, lorsque celui-ci est encliqueté dans les logements 130, 140 de l'embase, de manière à rendre indémontable le montage du cavalier sur l'embase. Sur les figures 4, 5 et 6, on a représenté plus particulièrement le capot de fermeture 700 de la fiche électrique selon l'invention, destiné à être monté sur la face arrière 102 de l'embase 100, de façon à couvrir le raccordement électrique des fils électriques du câble avec les broches de connexion électrique. Le capot de fermeture 700 est une pièce moulée en matière plastique.In addition, according to this variant, the bearing surface 1 10 has on each side a wall 110 ', 110 ". These parallel walls 1 10', 1 10" are made of a rigid plastic material and yet sufficiently flexible to be locally deform under the action of the ribs 61 1 of the jumper 610, when the latter is snapped into the housings 130, 140 of the base, so as to make the mounting of the jumper on the base impossible to dismantle. In Figures 4, 5 and 6, there is shown more particularly the closure cover 700 of the electrical plug according to the invention, intended to be mounted on the rear face 102 of the base 100, so as to cover the electrical connection electrical wires from the cable with the electrical connection pins. The closing cover 700 is a molded plastic part.
Comme on peut le voir sur la figure 5, ce capot 700 porte sur sa face interne 700a quatre tiges de montage 702, aptes à s'engager dans des orifices correspondants prévus dans l'embase de la fiche électrique. En outre, il comporte une partie en queue destinée à recouvrir la queue de l'embase 100, et en particulier une portion formant surface d'appui 710 complémentaire de la partie évasée en siège 120 de l'embase, apte à recevoir le câble lorsqu'il est soumis à des flexions lors de l'utilisation de la fiche électrique. Lorsque la fiche électrique est assemblée, les portions en siège 710, 120 du capot et de l'embase sont positionnés en regard pour former la sortie arrière de la fiche.As can be seen in FIG. 5, this cover 700 carries on its internal face 700a four mounting rods 702, capable of engaging in corresponding holes provided in the base of the electrical plug. In addition, it comprises a tail portion intended to cover the tail of the base 100, and in particular a portion forming a support surface 710 complementary to the flared portion in seat 120 of the base, suitable for receiving the cable when '' it is subject to bending when using the electrical plug. When the electrical plug is assembled, the seat portions 710, 120 of the cover and of the base are positioned facing each other to form the rear outlet of the plug.
Sur les figures 5 et 6, on distingue que le capot 700 comporte une paroi 701 qui s'étend, en position montée (voir figure 6), à partir de sa surface interne 700a, en direction de l'embase 100, de sorte que lorsque le capot 700 est monté sur l'embase 100, cette paroi 701 se trouve positionnée en avant de ladite surface d'appui soutenant le câble et le bord transversal d'extrémité 701 a de ladite paroi 701 bloque les fils électriques émergeant de la gaine du câble contre l'embase. Cette paroi 701 contribue alors avantageusement au maintien du câble sur l'embase et permet d'isoler les parties dénudées des fils électriques du câble de la sortie arrière de la flèche électrique.In FIGS. 5 and 6, it can be seen that the cover 700 has a wall 701 which extends, in the assembled position (see FIG. 6), from its internal surface 700a, in the direction of the base 100, so that when the cover 700 is mounted on the base 100, this wall 701 is positioned in front of said bearing surface supporting the cable and the transverse end edge 701 a of said wall 701 blocks the electrical wires emerging from the sheath of the cable against the base. This wall 701 then advantageously contributes to the maintenance of the cable on the base and makes it possible to isolate the stripped parts of the electric wires of the cable from the rear output of the electric boom.
La fabrication de la fiche électrique conforme à l 'invention représentée sur les figures 1 à 7 est aisée et économique.The manufacture of the electrical plug according to the invention shown in Figures 1 to 7 is easy and economical.
La présente invention n 'est nullement limitée aux modes de réalisation décrits et représentés, mais l'homme de métier pourra y apporter toute variante conforme à son esprit. The present invention is in no way limited to the embodiments described and shown, but those skilled in the art can make any variant according to their spirit.
