Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a Connector according to the preamble of claim 1.
  • Connectors of this type as for example in Cell phones are supposed to be used in smaller and smaller sizes future versions must always be offered the same forces when inserting and removing a cable connector can endure.
  • the object of the present invention is therefore a To create connectors of the type mentioned, in which the mechanical load on the plastic housing considerably reduced and in particular the number of components is.
  • the measures according to the invention ensure that the mechanical stress, in particular due to the locking occurs when inserting and removing the cable connector, from Taken plastic housing and transferred to the holding element is.
  • the holding element serves at the same time Attach the plastic housing to the circuit board. On this is the mounting area and locking area arranged immediately adjacent to each other, so that as good as no moments of force can occur. Furthermore, it is given a constructive simplification, since only one only holding element must be used, which in simple Can be manufactured and installed in the plastic housing.
  • the connector 10 shown in FIGS. 1 to 3 according to a preferred embodiment Invention is built into, for example, cell phones and there with a printed circuit board 15 indicated in FIG. 2 electrically and mechanically connected.
  • the connector 10 can for example with one shown in Figure 4 Cable connector 11 are connected.
  • the connector 10 has a plastic housing 12, one held in the housing or in one piece with the housing Holder 36 made of electrical insulating material, one Contact arrangement 37 which is in parallel recesses 38 of the Holder 36 is at least partially included, and two mirror images of each other Holding elements 13 and 14.
  • the thin-walled plastic housing 12 has an approximately cuboid outer shape and also cuboid Interior 16, which to the cable connector side front or Front 17 towards the clear cross section of the Plastic housing is open.
  • the PCB end or back 18 of the interior 16 is of one with the Recesses 38 provided corresponding recesses 19 Back wall 21 covered.
  • the two side walls 26 and 27 of the top wall 28 to the bottom 29 of the plastic housing 12 with a slot arrangement 31 and 32, respectively are arranged in mirror image to each other.
  • the Slot arrangement 31, 32 is at the top by each one parallel to the relevant side wall 26 or 27 extending longitudinal slot 33 and a near that of Front 17 facing end a transverse and in this opening transverse slot 34 is formed.
  • the slot arrangement 31, 32 formed only as a longitudinal slot 33, i.e. It is not Cross slot available.
  • the lower region 35 of the Longitudinal slot 33 at both ends opposite the upper one Area 30 of the longitudinal slot 33 somewhat shorter.
  • the metallic contact arrangement 37 is made in the holder 36 Plastic either inserted from the back 18 or poured.
  • the holder 36 is elongated in cross section rectangular and central in the interior 16 of the housing 12 arranged.
  • the adjacent contact webs of the Contact arrangement 37 have connection ends on the cable connector side 39 and on the printed circuit board side towards the printed circuit board 15 Connection ends 40.
  • the metallic holding element 13, 14 is made in one piece from one Formed sheet, i.e. punched and bent accordingly.
  • the Holding element 13, 14 has a main region 45, which of a slightly wider head 46 is covered, and one perpendicular (i.e. by 90 °) to the large area of the Main area 45 and angled around its narrow edge Locking tab 47, which is at an axial distance from the head 46 is provided.
  • One at the main area 45 subsequent foot area 48 is in the final state in a Fastening tab 49 and a fastening pin 50 branched out.
  • the fastening pin 50 lies in the plane of the main area 45, while the fastening tab 49 perpendicular (i.e.
  • the fastening tab 49 is in the main area 45 facing part with a slot, the Internal dimensions the outer dimensions of the mounting pin 50 corresponds, since the fastening pin 50 from the Fastening tab 49 is released or punched out.
  • the mounting pin 50 in the width direction of the Main area 45 is centered on this and has on his free end inclined surfaces 51.
  • the fastening pin 50 is much shorter than the mounting bracket 49.
  • Figure 1 shows in solid lines the final state of Holding element 13, 14 as it is when the holding element 13, 14 is located in the plastic housing 12.
  • the fastening tab 49 is located from the top still in the plane of the main area 45 and thus in the plane of the mounting pin 50, as shown in Figure 1 using the Holding element 13 is indicated dotted.
  • 32 are the longitudinal slot 33 of the Side wall 26, 27 and the protruding into the top wall 28 Cross slot 34 formed accordingly.
  • the Locking tab 47 with its front 17 facing surface 52 on a side wall 26 or 27 molded nose 22, 23 past by their rear surface 20 slides along, and lies exactly behind the nose 22, 23, if the head 46 on said shoulder in the longitudinal slot 33 lies on.
  • the holding element 13, 14 is thus in the housing 12 fixed or immobile.
  • the foot region 48 projects over the underside of the housing base 29, which has a longitudinal groove 24 is provided.
  • the foot area 48 the fastening tab 49 in that shown in Figure 1 Position bent outwards by 90 °, being in the longitudinal groove 24 is recorded and the side wall 26 or 27 protrudes like this is particularly evident from Figure 2.
  • the mounting pin 50 in a not shown corresponding recess in the circuit board 15 is pressed or is plugged in and soldered, lies the Mounting tab 49 on a surface area of the Printed circuit board 15, preferably a solder connection will be produced.
  • the plastic housing 12 is over the holding elements 13 and 14 on the printed circuit board 15 connected immovably and mechanically stressable.
  • the cable connector 11 has at the front end of its housing 61 accommodating a contact arrangement 62, in that a cable, not shown, is inserted Plug component 64, the active contacts with the plug-side connection ends 39 of the connector 10 are connectable.
  • Plug component 64 has the plug component 64 on both narrow side surfaces elastic or held elastic Locking tongues 67, in the locking recesses 68 the Locking tabs 47 of the holding elements 13, 14 and the lugs 22, 23 engage in the plastic housing 12.
  • For Unlocking can locking tabs 67 of the cable connector 11 through handles 69 held laterally on the housing 61 to the inside are deflected so that the recesses 68 of the Noses 22, 23 and locking tabs 47 forming counter-catches come free.
