Definitions

  • the invention relates to a contact element for plug-in connectors with plug contacts arranged on the plug side and a crimp connection arranged on the cable side.
  • the invention further relates to a plug connector having at least one contact element arranged in a plug connector housing according to the preamble of claim 6.
  • a generic connector goes out of the DE 20 2010 011 545 U1 out.
  • This connector has contact elements with crimp terminals arranged on the cable side, which are each provided with a primary locking element and a secondary locking element.
  • Each contact element serves as a spring contact and is also intended to contact a single cable by crimping and to fix in the contact element.
  • Each of these contact elements is arranged in a connector housing, wherein the contact elements are adjacent.
  • Such connectors are used for example in the automotive industry. They are used to contact individual cables in a connector with several adjacent or superimposed contact elements. The contacting of individual cables in a common connector is necessary in the automotive industry, since at various points discharges of individual cables from a common wiring harness are required.
  • EP 1 077 513 A1 and US 2002/146943 A1 show plug contacts with the features of the preamble of claim 1.
  • the contact elements according to the invention with the features of claim 1 and the connector according to the invention, in which such contact elements are arranged in a connector housing, with the features of claim 6 allow in contrast to a very advantageous manner, a very compact design and further miniaturization of such connectors and thus an increase the number of contact elements to be arranged in such a connector and thus an increase in the number of cables to be contacted, which open into the connector. In addition, only a double-row version of such a plug-in system is possible.
  • the plug contacts and the crimp connection are offset from one another in an axially parallel manner and that the at least one primary locking element has two locking springs that are resilient transversely to the plug-in direction and mirror-symmetrically arranged to a plug center plane Secondary locking element have at least one transversely to the direction of insertion and to the insertion center plane mirror symmetrically arranged in the contact element Sekundärverriegelungsauf founded. Due to the interaction of the axially parallel offset arrangement of plug contact and crimp and the mirror symmetry arranged to the plane of insertion plane primary locking elements and secondary locking elements, it is possible to position the plug contacts in the connector rotated by 180 ° to each other side by side.
  • the plug contacts are in one plane and two such levels of juxtaposed plug contacts are one above the other.
  • the plug contacts and thus the crimp terminals are rotated in one plane relative to the other plane by 180 °.
  • the plug contacts are alternately positioned in the connector rotated 180 ° to each other next to each other, each of which one above the other and crimping crimps in the assembled state can overlap transversely (perpendicular) to the direction of insertion.
  • the plug contacts and the crimp connection are offset by a length dimension to each other, which corresponds substantially to at least the largest dimension perpendicular to the insertion direction or the diameter of the crimp.
  • the contact element is fixed in the connector housing and thereby achieved that even significant vibration loads, such as may occur in vehicles, not to break, for example, the transition region between the contact elements and the crimp or contact corrosion of a copper conductor in the crimp, the insulating effect, lead.
  • the crimp-locking element is arranged at the bottom of the crimp. At the bottom of this means essentially lying in the plane open Crimulatel.
  • the plug contacts formed as spring contacts are arranged on a plug contact side arranged U-bracket, they taper inwards, are resilient and point in the direction of Cable connection side.
  • the locking springs preferably have blade contact bearing surfaces on their side facing the plug center plane. These serve to effectively prevent disengagement of the locking springs from the openings provided in the connector housing, because the blade contact bearing surfaces abut against the blade contact elements and do not allow movement of the locking springs in the direction of the plug center plane in the inserted state of the blade contact elements.
  • the secondary interlocking cams provided in the housing are preferably oversized with respect to the secondary interlocking recesses such that upon engagement of the interlocking cams with the secondary interlocking recesses, the locking cams in the secondary interlocking recesses become jammed.
  • a contact element 100 as a whole has a contact region 110, a locking region 120 and a crimping region 130.
  • the contact region 110 consists essentially of a U-shaped bent bracket 111, on which in the insertion direction R inwardly tapering, resiliently formed and in the direction of the cable end side, ie the crimping 130, facing plug contacts 112 are arranged. These plug-in contacts 112 arranged on the plug serve to receive a blade contact element 310 (see FIG Fig. 6 ).
  • the locking area 120 adjoining the contact area 110 has primary locking elements and secondary locking elements.
  • the primary locking elements are two transversely to the direction of insertion R resilient and to a plug center plane E, which extends in the middle between the plug contacts 112 perpendicularly from a plug-in base of the bracket 113, mirror-symmetrically arranged locking springs 122 which engage in corresponding recesses 260 in a connector housing in the assembled state and held there by their spring action (see Fig. 1 . Fig. 5 ).
  • These locking springs 122 form the primary lock. This is followed on the side of the locking region 120 facing the crimping region by a secondary locking, which is formed, inter alia, by secondary locking recesses 124. These Sekundärverriegelungsaus fundamentalungen 124 are arranged mirror-symmetrically to the plane E.
  • the contact element Due to the mirror-symmetrical arrangement of both the locking springs 122 of the primary locking element and the Sekundärverriegelungsaus strictly traditions 124 of the secondary locking element, it is possible to use the contact element without structural changes rotated by 180 °.
  • the upper and lower locking springs 122 and the upper and lower secondary locking recesses 124 reverse their positions.
  • the U-bracket 111 is also rotated by 180 °, so that the base 113 viewed in the direction of insertion R in Fig. 1 instead of being arranged on the right on the left side.
  • the plug contacts 112 are also formed and arranged mirror-symmetrically to the plane E, so that a connection in both rotated by 180 ° positions of the contact element 100 is possible.
  • the full function of the primary locking element and the secondary locking element is ensured.
  • the locking springs 122 of the primary locking element and the Sekundärverriegelungsaus strictlyieri 124 of the secondary locking element is provided that the crimping region 130 is offset to the locking portion 120 and contact portion 110 parallel to the axis by a distance A.
  • This distance A corresponds essentially to at least the diameter D or the largest dimension perpendicular to the plug-in direction of a crimp terminal in the crimped state (see FIG. Fig. 3 . Fig. 4 ).
  • the crimp connection has a known manner Crimping prong 132 for crimping strands and clamping wings 134 for clamping the insulation jacket of a cable (not shown) for strain relief.
  • Adjoining the clamping wings 134 is a crimp-locking element 136, which has a substantially T-shaped form and lies in the plane of the completely flat curved crimping blade 132 or clamping wing 134. The function of this locking element 136 will be described in more detail below.
  • Such contact elements are arranged in a connector, which is designated as a whole by 200.
  • a connector housing 210 to the contact elements 100 adapted openings 230 are provided which serve to receive and positioning of the contact elements 100 (see Fig. 3 - 6 ).
  • the contact elements 100 are pushed into the openings 230 from an end face of the housing 210 and fixed there due to the locking elements, as described below in connection with FIG Fig. 5 and Fig. 6 will be explained in more detail.
  • the recesses 230 are arranged in the connector housing 210 so that the contact elements 100 are positioned alternately rotated by 180 ° to each other lying side by side.
  • the locking elements ie primary locking and Secondary locking elements, mirror-symmetrical to the plane E be formed in order to arrange a single contact element in two different, rotated by 180 ° to each other positions in the connector housing 210 can.
  • Fig. 5 shows the moment of insertion of a contact element 100 in the connector housing 200.
  • the contact portions 110 with each of the two plug contacts 112, which are tapered in the insertion direction R and resilient, are pushed up to an opening 270 of the housing 200.
  • Only in the fully inserted state does one of the two locking springs 122 of the primary locking element spring into an opening 260 provided in the housing for this purpose.
  • the adjacent contact element is rotated by 180 ° and in this the other locking spring 122 springs into the opening 260 a.
  • the upper or lower locking spring 122 of the primary locking element therefore alternately engage in the opening 260 with respect to the plane E in each case.
  • Fig. 6 shows the connector 200 with mounted contact element 100 in cooperation with another mating connector 300 in isometric cross-sectional view.
  • the further connector 300 has blade contacts 310, of which in Fig. 6 only a single contact can be seen.
  • the blade contact 310 engages the plug contacts 112 to make an electrical contact.
  • it protrudes so deeply into the locking region 120 that the locking springs 122 forming the primary locking element and extending transversely to the plug-in direction R fix a latching position in an opening 260 of the plug connector housing 210.
  • втори ⁇ ное ка ⁇ ии 124 there is another secondary locking element 340 in the form of secondary locking cams 342 which engage the secondary locking recesses 124.
  • the contact elements 100 can be alternately arranged in two different positions rotated through 180 °, one and the same secondary locking element 340 with the secondary locking cams 342 being inserted once into one ( upper) secondary locking recesses 124 and the other time into the other (lower) secondary locking recesses 124, which are arranged mirror-symmetrically to the plane E, engage.
  • the secondary locking cams 342 have a slight excess over the secondary locking recesses 124. As a result, a prestressed fixation of the contact element 100 in the connector housing 200 is enabled in the inserted state.
  • Fig. 4 and Fig. 6 shows are provided for the crimp-locking element 136 in the housing 200 recesses 236 which are adapted to the crimp-locking element 136 in such a way that by the arrangement of the arranged at the bottom of the crimp terminal crimp-locking element 136 in these recesses 236 a Fixation of the crimping 130 is realized in the connector housing 200. This fixation prevents vibration is exposed to such a connector, for example in a motor vehicle, that it leads to a disruptive contact corrosion and thus an interruption of the electrical contact Resistance increase or even a break of the contact element 100 can come.
