Definitions

  • Patent application P 42 32 802.0 describes a lamp holder with a built-in starter.
  • This lamp holder has a housing which is approximately L-shaped in side view, the contact spring tongues with which the electrical connection to the pins of a two-pin base lamp are made are arranged in one leg of the housing.
  • the starter bottle and an associated condenser In the other leg of the approximately L-shaped housing there is the starter bottle and an associated condenser.
  • the electrical connection between the external wiring and one of the two contact spring tongues takes place via self-clamping contacts, in that the stripped wire end is inserted from the outside through a corresponding opening in the housing.
  • the contact spring tongue contains a further punched-out tongue in the region of the opening and a contact region as an abutment which rises up at an angle to the tongue for the inserted wire end that is clamped between this area and the free end of the spring tongue.
  • the entire arrangement of the contact spring tongue for the base pins and the contact tongue for the conductor connection is made from a sheet metal strip which is essentially bent over its flat side.
  • connection between the external wiring and the starter is made via its own spring clip, which is housed in the other part of the housing.
  • a further patent application with the file number P 42 18 740.0 shows the use of the so-called insulation displacement technology in connection with sockets for two-pin base lights in order to enable automatic wiring of the light.
  • two insulation displacement springs with an approximately U-shaped configuration are arranged offset in relation to one another in the housing of the socket made of insulating material.
  • the insulation displacement slot formed in this way is too open at the top and enables a conductor which has not been stripped before to be radially pressed into the insulation displacement contact.
  • Groove-like depressions provided on the side next to the insulation displacement contact protect any existing bare ends of the conductor so that they cannot touch.
  • the width of the recesses and the depth of the conductor being pressed into the insulation displacement contact are selected so that the live parts cannot be reached with the aid of a standardized test ball.
  • the object of the invention is to provide a socket adapted to the use of insulation displacement contacts, the individual parts of which are easy to manufacture and easy to assemble into the finished socket.
  • the insulation displacement contact and the contact spring tongue can be produced together with the connecting piece required for spatial reasons as a simple sheet metal stamped part, which after a corresponding bending, only has to be inserted into the housing.
  • the insulation displacement contact itself is located in an externally accessible chamber which is provided on its side walls with insertion slots which have insertion slots aligned with the insulation displacement slot.
  • the width of the groove-like depressions which are intended to prevent accidental contact with live parts, is larger than the outside diameter of the line.
  • the groove-like recess is deeper than the insertion slot, so that it is ensured in any case that with the required conductor cross section and the required wall thickness of the plastic insulation, the conductor can actually be inserted as far as possible into the insulation displacement slot.
  • the insertion of the conductor into the insulation displacement contact is facilitated if the insertion slot protruding beyond the insulation displacement contact tapers in a funnel shape in the direction of the insulation displacement slot and this in turn is likewise provided with a funnel-shaped opening.
  • the fully automatic assembly of a lamp equipped with the new socket is further simplified if the housing is preferably provided with one-piece fastening means.
  • the new version can be used for fluorescent lamps as well as for incandescent lamps as well as for starters, if the outer shape of the lamp is adapted accordingly.
  • the housing of the socket has two legs running approximately at right angles to one another, one of which contains the opening for the base pins, while the chambers with the insulation displacement contacts are accommodated in the other leg.
  • the groove-like depressions in addition to the respective insulation displacement contacts each form two grooves which run parallel at a distance from one another and at a distance from the front of the first leg. This makes it possible to drive freely past the front of the socket with the insertion tool or the wire. A collision of the tool with the front is not to be feared.
  • a further material saving on the new housing can be achieved if no cover covering the entire rear side is provided on the back of the first leg. Nevertheless, protection against contact for the contact spring arrangements can also be achieved there, namely by the side walls and between the contact spring arrangements Partitions are used, between which the connectors of the contact spring assemblies are located.
  • the starter detection device is advantageously accommodated in a lateral extension of the first leg. This makes it possible to bring the contact spring arrangement from the second leg by bending over the flat side into the area in which the base pins are when the starter is inserted.
  • the housing expediently has the shape of a cuboid, the chambers for the insulation displacement contacts being located in the region of one of the sides of the cuboid.
  • the contact spring arrangement expediently consists of a stamped sheet metal part, it can be bent about an axis perpendicular to the flat side if a predetermined bending point is provided.
  • This arrangement is expediently used in lampholder housings in which a corresponding base region is attached in one piece to the first housing leg via a film hinge.
  • the contact spring arrangement can be inserted into corresponding support members or structures in the stretched state, and the desired angled shape, which accommodates the assembly wiring, is achieved by folding up the floor area in question.
  • Fig. 1 shows a socket 1 for socketed fluorescent lamps at both ends with two socket pins.
  • the socket 1 contains a housing 2 made of insulating material, which, seen in the side view, is approximately L-shaped. It consists of an upstanding first housing leg 3 and a lying second housing leg 4, the longitudinal axes of which intersect at right angles.
  • the two housing legs 3 and 4 merge into one another in an angular range 5. They each have a cuboid shape for themselves in the broadest sense.
  • the first housing leg 3 is delimited by a front wall 6 facing the second housing leg 4, on which a side wall arrangement 7 is integrally formed.
  • This side wall arrangement 7 forms a collar which largely follows the outer contour of the front wall 6 and rises towards the rear.
  • a cover 8 belonging to the first housing leg 3 is placed on the back.
  • This lid 8 ends at a lower edge 9, which is higher than it corresponds to the top of the second housing leg 4. It lies approximately where the first housing leg 3 has two symmetrically arranged recesses 11, on which the width of the first housing leg 3 tapers. Following the two recesses 11, the first housing leg 3 merges into two parallel side walls 12.
  • the front wall 6 contains, in a known manner, a cylindrical bore 13 into which a slot 14, which also passes through the side wall arrangement 7, opens from above.
  • a slot 14 which also passes through the side wall arrangement 7, opens from above.

  • the floor part 104 extending in between is located in the extension of the rear wall 102, ie the film hinge 103 is stretched.
  • the contact spring arrangements 49 designed as straight sheet metal stampings are inserted, in such a way that the insulation displacement contact 53 in the chamber 48 of one contact spring arrangement 49 and the insulation displacement contact 53 in the other chamber 33 in the other contact spring arrangement 49 lies.
  • These two chambers are at different distances from the film hinge 103, namely they are staggered in the same way as previously explained in connection with FIG. 1.
  • the middle bottom part 104 together with the inserted contact spring arrangements 49 is bent clockwise upwards until the bottom part 104 lies flush between the two bottom strips 105.
  • Both contact spring arrangements 49 are bent at their predetermined bending point 101 about an axis which is perpendicular to the plane defined by the flat side of the insulation displacement contact 53.
  • the sheet metal profiles are bent upright, so to speak, over the narrow side.
  • the middle base part 104 After the middle base part 104 has been folded up, it latches with latching members (not shown further) in the folded-up position, which can be seen in FIG. 11. Otherwise, the handling is as previously explained.
