Definitions

  • Cable of this type includes a plurality of insulated wires enclosed by a shield of aluminum or copper foil to provide an electrical shielding action. The entire assembly is enclosed in an insulating jacket. It has been found that, even with a shielding sheath surrounding the wires, electrical interference still occurs.
  • the present invention provides an electrical connector arrangement for the multi-wire cable which eliminates problems due to electrical interference and provides optimum electrostatic shielding.
  • the apparatus and method of the invention are practiced with a flat cable 10 which includes a plurality of relatively fine insulated wires 20 surrounded by an electrical shielding sheath 40 of aluminum, copper, or the like.
  • An insulating jacket 50 encloses the entire assembly of wires and shielding sheath.
  • the cable 10 is secured to a terminating connector or plug 60 in a unique manner.
  • the plug 60 is made of tin-plated steel or the like and has an annular metal housing 62 which carries an assembly of pins or sockets 80 embedded in an insulating matrix 81.
  • the housing 70 includes a rearwardly extending generally S-shaped plate 90 which is soldered to the housing 70 and is adapted to engage one surface of the end of the cable with a similar separate plate 100 which engages the opposite surface of the cable. Plate 100 is secured to the plate 90 with the cable between them.
  • the shield 40 is turned back so that the individual wires 20 are exposed and enough insulation is removed so that each can be secured to a pin or socket 80.
  • the shield 40 which is turned back covers the insulating jacket 50, as seen in Fig. 2, and it is clamped between the plates 90 and 100 with the shield between and in electrical contact with the plates 90 and 100.
  • the plates are secured together by bolts, screws, or the like.
  • the connector 60 carrying the cable 10 is coupled to a terminal chassis (not shown) or the like and is grounded for optimum operation by means of thumb screws 110 which secure the metal housing 62 to the chassis.
  • the other end of the cable 10 can be prepared and secured to a connector in similar fashion, if desired.
  • the assembly described provides optimum shielding of a multi-conductor cable from electrical and electrostatic fields.
  • the body of the connector itself provides a shielding action for electric fields, and the connection to the chassis provides a path for electrostatic discharge.
