Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a connector for electrically connecting the contacts of a plug and the contacts of a socket by coupling the plug and the socket with each other, and more particularly to a connector having a lock mechanism for locking the plug and the socket together when the plug is inserted in the socket.
  • a connector plug according to the prior art portion of claim 1 is disclosed in the document FR-A-2 447 105.
  • the locking spring means and the support bar means are together movable with respect to the plug body means and are further movable with respect to each other.
  • This prior art when the connector plug has been plugged into the socket, it is necessaryyto manually push the support bar means towards the socket in order to achieve the locking state of the connection.
  • This prior art substantially relies upon particular shapes of both movable pieces, the locking spring means and the support bar means.
  • This known connector plug does not provide an automatic locking.
  • this prior art suffers from the drawback mentioned before since during the connection of plug and socket care must be taken where to hold the plug in order not to interfere with the normal operation of the locking spring means and the support bar means.
  • the document FR-A-1455850 relates to a hose connector assembly, wherein, when two counterparts are being connected to each other, the free end of a locking spring provided on one part pushes back one end of a cylinder provided on the other part until a protrusion of the locking spring falls in a recess provided in the body of the other part.
  • the cylinder is then pushed forward by a coil spring to confine the locking spring within the cylinder, thereby achieving an automatic locking.
  • the cylinder is pulled backward to allow the locking spring to be displaced radially outward to disengage its protrusion from the said recess.
  • the locking spring is provided on one and the cylinder on the other of the two counterparts of the assembly.
  • the cylinder extends over a substantial length of the respective counterpart but it must not be held while both counterparts are plugged together. Thus, there is again the drawback that care must be taken where to hold the individual parts when they are plugged together.
  • the socket to be used with said connector plug is claimed in an independent claim.
  • a locking spring means and a support bar means extending axially of the connector plug are disposed in superposed relation, and the support bar means is axially movable and normally urged forwardly under the resiliency of a coil spring.
  • the support bar means is caught by a front surface of the socket and the locking spring means is first inserted into an insertion slot defined in the front surface of the socket.
  • the support bar means is inserted into the insertion slot under the bias of the coil spring, whereupon the protrusions are retained in the recesses to lock plug and socket together.
  • the connector plug can be pulled out of the socket by pulling back a coupling sleeve against the biasing force to withdraw the support bar means out of the insertion slot.
  • a plug in a connector according to an embodiment of the present invention is shown in Figs. 1 through 3.
  • a plug body 11 is in the form of a cylinder of an insulating material, and a tubular insert 12 is formed integrally with the plug body 11 and extends coaxially therewith toward a position in front of the plug body 11 (see Fig. 4).
  • Plug contacts 13 projects forwardly from the plug body 11 in the tubular insert 12.
  • the plug contacts 13 comprises pin contacts force-fitted in and extending through small holes (not shown) defined axially through the plug body 11.
  • the contacts 13 have rear ends to which are connected lead wires 14a from a cord 14.
  • the plug body 11 is fitted at its rear end in a front end of a cap 15, with the cord 14 lead out of a rear end of the cap 15.
  • a positioning ridge 16 is integrally formed on an inner peripheral surface of the tubular insert 12 and extends axially thereof.
  • locking springs 17 extending axially forwardly are mounted on the plug body 11 and have on free ends thereof protrusions 18 projecting radially outwardly of an axis of the plug body 11.
  • the locking springs 17 are resiliently displaceable in radial directions.
  • U-shaped slots 19 are formed in the insert 12 to axially extend into the plug body 11 to define the locking springs 17.
  • the locking springs 17 have rear ends integrally fixed to the plug body 11 and free front ends from which the protrusions 18 integrally project.
  • the locking springs 17 are disposed in diametrically opposite relation to each other.
  • a pair of support bars 21 is held against surfaces of the locking springs 17 opposite from the protrusions 18 and is axially movable.
  • the support bars 21 are normally urged by a coil spring 22 to move axially in a forward direction, and can be moved back by a coupling sleeve 23 against the resiliency of the coil spring 22.
  • the coupling sleeve 23 is axially movably disposed around the plug body 11 and the cap 15.
  • the support bars 21 have rear ends integrally connected by a ring member 24 on which there is integrally formed a pair of engagement members 25 extending radially outwardly.
  • the cap 15 has axial guide slots 26 defined in a front portion thereof in radial alignment with the engagement members 25.
  • the engagement members 25 are guided in the axial guide slots 26 for axial movement therealong, with the engagement members 25 projecting radially outwardly from the guide slots 26.
  • the plug body 11 has axial holes 27 positioned radially inwardly of the locking springs 17 and having substantially the same widths as those of the U-shaped slots 19, the axial holes 27 communicating with the slots 19 and the interior of the tubular insert 12.
  • the support bars 21 are inserted in the holes 27 and held substantially in contact with inner surfaces of the locking springs 17.
  • the support bars 21 have inner surfaces lying flush with or slightly recessed from the inner peripheral surface of the insert 12.
  • the coupling sleeve 23 has a ring-shaped recess 28 defined in an inner peripheral surface thereof in which ends of the engagement members 25 are inserted so as to be axially movable.
  • the coupling sleeve 23 also has locking teeth 29 projecting radially inwardly from the inner peripheral surface of the coupling sleeve 23 at a rear end thereof. Between the locking teeth 29 and the ring-shaped recess 28, there is positioned a ring-shaped stopper 31 (Fig. 6) integrally formed on an outer peripheral surface of the cap 15.
  • a portion of the coupling sleeve 23 which is rearward of the ring-shaped recess 28 has a greater inside diameter to define a ring-shaped clearance 32 for allowing the coupling sleeve 23 to be axially moved between the locking teeth 29 and the ring-shaped recess 28.
  • the coil spring 22 is interposed between a ring-shaped step 20 formed in an inner peripheral surface of the cap 15 and the engagement members 25 in coaxial relation to the cap 15.
  • the coil spring 22 urges the support bars 21 in a forward direction, and also urges the engagement members 25 to engage a front wall surface 28a of the ring-shaped recess 28 to thereby bias the coupling sleeve 23 forwardly. Under this condition, the locking teeth 29 are in engagement with the stopper 31.
  • the protrusions 18 of the locking springs 17 are positioned forwardly of the coupling sleeve 23 and project radially outwardly beyond the outer peripheral surface of the insert 12.
  • the locking springs 17 project slightly forwardly of the support bars 21.
  • a socket for use with the plug shown in Figs. 1 through 7 is illustrated by way of example in Figs. 8 and 9.
  • a socket body 34 is in the form of a cylinder made of an insulating material and has a ring-shaped insertion slot 35 defined in a front surface thereof.
  • Contacts 36 are mounted in the socket body 34 radially inwardly of the slot 35.
  • the socket contacts 36 are capable of coupling engagement with the plug contacts 13.
  • the socket contacts 36 are in the form of receptacle contacts in which the pin contacts 13 can be inserted.
  • the socket contacts 36 are force-fitted in holes defined in the socket body 34.
  • the socket body 34 includes an axial positioning groove 37 defined in an inner peripheral surface of the insertion slot 35 for receiving the positioning ridge 16 in the plug (Figs. 2 and 3).
  • the socket body 34 also includes locking recesses 38 defined in an outer peripheral surface of the insertion slot 35 for receiving the protrusions 18 of the locking springs 17.
  • the sum d, of the thicknesses of the protrusion 18 and the locking spring 17 and the thickness of the support bar 21 is greater than the width d 2 (Fig. 9) of the insertion slot 35.
  • the width d 2 of the insertion slot 35 is greater than the sum d 3 of the thickness of the locking spring 17 behind the protrusion 18 and the thickness of the support bar 21.
  • the axial length of the ring-shaped clearance 32 is selected such that, with the protrusions 18 engaging in the recesses 38, the support bars 21 can move into and out of the insertion slot 35 or be axially displaced.
  • Each of the protrusions 18 has a front taper 18a (Fig. 10A) sloping down from the top of the protrusion towards the tip end of the locking spring 17 to submerge under the level of the outer peripheral surface of the tubular insert 12 so that when the tubular insert 12 is inserted into the insertion slot 35, an outer edge of the slot 35 abuts the front taper 18a to displace the free end portion of the locking spring 17 radially inwardly.
  • the protrusion 18 may also have a rear taper 18b at the rear end thereof, which effects to press the locking spring 17 radially inwardly as the locking spring 17 is pulled out of the insertion slot 35 (Fig. 10D).
  • a rear taper 18b at the rear end of the protrusion 18
  • the tubular insert 12 of the plug is inserted into the insertion slot 35 in the socket.
  • a front portion of the insert 12 extending forward beyond the free end of the locking spring 17 is inserted into the insertion slot 35, relative positioning between the insertion slot 35 and the free end of the locking spring 17 is automatically accomplished so that the outer edge of the insertion slot 35 may abut the front taper 18a of the protrusion 18. Accordingly, the ends of the protrusions 18 are guided into the insertion slot 35 as shown in Fig. 10A. Since the thickness d, of the protrusion 18 and the support bar 21 is greater than the slot width d 2 , as described above, the support bar 21 engages the front surface of the socket body 34 as shown in Fig.
  • each support bar 21 it is preferable for each support bar 21 to have a tapered surface 21a on the distal end thereof.
  • the coupling sleeve 23 is pulled back against the biasing force of the coil spring 22.
  • the support bars 21 are then pulled back through the engagement members 25 until the support bars 21 are brought out of the insertion slot 35 as shown in Fig. 10D. Therefore, the ends of the locking springs 17 can be moved in a direction opposite from the protrusions 18.
  • the locking springs 17 are resiliently bent as the protrusions 18 are moved out of the recesses 38, whereupon the plug is unlocked from the socket.
