Definitions

  • the invention relates to an arrangement between two assembled by connecting electrical contact partners, one of which is fixed in a housing of an electrical device by means of a releasable snap-in connection and is inaccessible after the completion of the electrical device, while the other contact partner is accessible to and released from the electrical connection is removable from the fixed contact partner.
  • control lines for connection to the device-specific electronic or electromechanical device components at a relatively early stage of assembly.
  • the control lines are usually equipped at their line end with connector housings which are held at a predetermined position in the device housing, the holding measures having to be designed such that they arrange the insertion force when they are connected to the connection lines of the device components Plugs are able to accommodate even if the procedure is not always correct.
  • the connector housing in their contact position often uses snap connections instead of screw connections.
  • the invention has for its object to propose holding measures for a bracket for a stationary contact partner no longer accessible in the final manufacturing stage serving as a result of which the contact partner is always held securely in its contact position.
  • the fixedly arranged contact partner is surrounded by a protective housing which keeps it in contact position when the electrical connection is broken and assembled, which largely shields the fixed contact partner and its contact points.
  • the solution according to the invention labor-intensive and therefore costly readjustments of the contact position of the stationary contact partner, if at all possible due to the nature of the device, can be dispensed with.
  • the accessible contact partner can contact them if necessary repair or maintenance work to be carried out by the stationary contact partner without having to take special security measures with regard to his contact position for the latter.
  • it is ensured in a simple manner that the contact points of the contact partner arranged in the housing are protected against contamination, but also against further manufacturing measures such as the introduction of insulating foam.
  • the protective housing has within its protective space formed by its walls means which, when the protective housing is in the protective position, acts on a releasable latching connection which holds the stationary contact partner, thereby keeping it positively and non-positively in the contact position is.
  • Such a solution is characterized in that despite a production-friendly connection technology that is easily resolvable per se, the contact partner arranged in the housing is always held precisely in the contact position and, in addition, the snap-in connection releasably holding the contact partner through the protective housing against unwanted, the destruction of Force effects causing snap connection is largely protected.
  • a protective housing can be constructed particularly simply if, according to an alternative embodiment of the object of the invention, it is provided that the means are formed by the mutually opposite inner sides of the walls of the protective housing.
  • the means are formed on the one hand by a web section and on the other hand by the inside of a wall of the protective housing.
  • a protective housing designed in this way is particularly easily adaptable to the most varied of positions of the releasable latching connection which serves to hold the contact partner fixedly arranged in the housing.
  • the protective housing has a rib within its walls, which acts directly on the stationary contact partner and holds it in a positive and non-positive manner in contact position when the protective housing is in the protective position and is fixed therein by means of a latching connection.
  • the direct action of the rib on the contact partner ensures a particularly simple fixation of the latter in the contact position, since tolerance positions of additional holding means such as latching hooks need not be taken into account.
  • the protective housing is additionally stiffened by the rib.
  • a protective housing can be brought into the protective position particularly precisely assigned to the contact partner to be covered if, according to a further preferred embodiment of the object of the invention, it is provided that the protective housing can be displaceably guided into protective position on guide ribs.
  • the stationary contact partner is held on a receiving housing for the accessible and mobile contact partner designed as a printed circuit board.
  • a receptacle housing is used particularly expediently if, according to a last preferred embodiment of the object of the invention, it is provided that the receptacle housing is foamed in one side in a refrigerator or freezer and is equipped with holding measures as well as with guide ribs for the protective housing.
  • a household refrigerator 10 is shown, whose heat-insulating housing 11 has a housing recess on its front side and with one in the closed position located door 12 is used to cover a front introduced into the housing 11 opening.
  • the housing 11 On its ceiling area opposite the floor area, the housing 11 is provided with a table top 13 which is likewise subjected to thermal insulation and which is also foamed onto the housing 11, the front side of which is arranged parallel to the front of the housing and is provided in its edge areas with setting elements, not specified, for setting the device parameters .
  • an opening 15 formed by a receiving housing 14 is provided in the front of the table top 13 and is covered by a display panel, not shown here, which shows the setting parameters of the device.
  • the receptacle housing 14 is integrated into the thermal insulation of the table top 13 and is provided with openings 17 on its rear wall 16 opposite the opening 15, the opening level of which is set back relative to the elastically deformable locking hooks 18 arranged in pairs, whereby these are spaced from one another and the undercut forming the catch faces each other.
  • both latching hooks 18 are arranged as free cuts in side walls 20 belonging to a frame-like enclosure 19, while the narrower ones are fixed Version of one of the latching hooks 18 is arranged within the area encompassed by the frame-like border 19. Outside the area delimited by the frame-like border 19, opposite receiving openings 21 are provided on both side walls 20 and are arranged directly adjacent to the side walls 20.
  • the frame-like casing 19 has a guide wall 22, which is arranged below the receiving openings 21 and projects over the other walls of the casing and which serves on its side walls 20 for displaceably guiding a protective housing 23, for this purpose is provided within its protective space formed by its housing walls with guide grooves 24, in which the lateral edges of the guide wall 22 can engage, which, in order to ensure adequate guidance of the protective housing 23, extend into the area of one that protrudes from the outside of the protective housing Cable entry 25 extends. Furthermore, within the protective space of the protective housing 23 there is provided a web section 27 arranged near one of its side walls 26, the side of which web facing away from the side wall 26 is provided with a sliding slope.
  • a flat-profile rib 28 is provided (this is shown in dash-dot lines and forms an alternative fixing option for the stationary contact partner), the width of which is dimensioned such that its end facing away from the web section 27 also Distance to the side wall 26 of the protective housing 23 is arranged.
  • Both side walls 26 each have a bulge 29 which is open both to the free edges of the side walls 26 and to the protective space of the protective housing 23, within which an elastically deformable latching hook 30 is arranged, the hook tip of which protrudes beyond the free edges of the side walls and the latch-forming hook facing away from the protective space of the protective housing 23.
  • a circuit board serving as a contact partner 31 can be inserted in the receiving space bounded by the receiving housing 14, which is received on its lateral edges by guides not described in more detail and which on their the rear wall 16 of the side facing the receiving housing 14 is equipped with connection areas 32. These protrude into the plane of the openings 17 in the installed position of the printed circuit board and have electrical connection points produced by laminating the printed circuit board. These can be electrically contacted by means of a contact partner 33 already mentioned above, which is fixed in place in the contact position by means of the latching hooks 18 on the rear wall 16 of the receiving housing 14.
  • the stationary contact partner 33 is used to connect control lines 34, on the basis of which control signals from device components (not shown here) such as compressors, starting capacitors or the like are fed to the evaluation elements via the conductor tracks of the printed circuit board or are also sent from these to the device components via the printed circuit board.
  • device components not shown here
  • the stationary contact partner 33 which together with the printed circuit board forms a so-called edge connector system for printed circuit boards, is held in its contact position by means of a protective housing 23 when the latter is in a locked protective position, the latching hooks 30 of which penetrate receiving openings 21 on the rear wall 16 of the receiving housing 17 and lock there.
  • the protective housing 23 When in a protective position Depending on the width of the fixed contact partner 33, the protective housing 23 has a form-fitting effect on the mutually opposite inner sides of the housing of the side walls 26 or one of these side walls 26 together with the web section 27 on the latching hooks 18 serving to lock the fixed contact partner 33.
  • This securing measure also ensures, when the electrical connection formed between the two contact partners 31 and 33 is broken and joined, that the latter always remains securely in its contact position even if the contact partner 31, which is designed as a printed circuit board, is handled improperly.
  • the protective housing serves above all to shield the heat insulation material, which is introduced in liquid starting components into the housing 11 and into the table top 13, from the contact points of the contact partners 33.
  • the flat profile rib 28 already mentioned can be used, which, when the protective housing 23 is in the protective position, and acts non-positively on the stationary contact partner 33.
  • the latching hooks 18, which engage the contact partners 33 directly on the rear wall 16 of the receiving housing 14, can be omitted.
