Definitions

  • the present invention relates to electrical Interconnects.
  • Electrical connectors are used in the used in a variety of situations and lie in the various forms.
  • telephone communication and Data communication includes becoming electrical Connector in connection with wall mounted Front panels used to interconnect between electrical wiring behind the Front panel and with this wiring, for example to be provided in a room to be connected.
  • Such electrical connectors generally have Molded plastic housing on that electrical contacts with different shapes receives.
  • These connectors sometimes need others contact electrical contacts that are part of a molded assembly, and must be in others Situations Contact conductor on printed circuit boards. in the In the case of printed circuit boards, it is generally necessary that PCB with upstanding pins to provide the contact counter-contact elements hanging down, from the molded case of the connector be worn.
  • connectors with Molded casing can change the type of interaction between contacts in different ways can be achieved, for example by sliding intervention or by bumping the ends.
  • Type of connection that the electrical connector must manufacture determines the way the electrical connector itself is designed. So it did for example not given a single connector with which both conductors are engaged on a circuit board can be taken as well as an electrical one Connection with contacts in a molded plastic housing can be manufactured.
  • the present invention relates to Design of an electrical connector with which a Contact with a printed circuit board and also with contacts can be manufactured in a molded case.
  • a electrical connector element provided that a Compressed material housing, in which one or more electrical contacts are made, the Housing has an area next to a Surface of another element with which it can make electrical contact is said, the surface being a slit or slits through which part of a contact or of Contacts that generally extends along the Extend area, which when mounting the Connector element on the other element of the protruding Section or the protruding sections of the electrical contacts with electrical contacts on the make contact with another element, and that being Housing has an education or training that with appropriate training on the other Element can engage so that the Connector element relative to this other element can be arranged.
  • the other element is a circuit board
  • the Formations can be from opposite side sections the area of the electrical connector hang.
  • the contact or contacts can be on your end IDC portions distant from the protruding part contain.
  • the body of the housing can be shaped that tall columns are defined, and the IDC sections can each be in a gap between neighboring pillars.
  • the contact elements can be made of elastic Material be formed so that they are deformed can, when in contact with another, for example on a circuit board or another molded connector module.
  • the connector element shown in the drawings comprises a housing (10) made of plastic material is shaped.
  • the housing includes an upper one Housing section (10A) and a lower housing section (10B), which in their assembled condition Snap connector type connections (10C) held together become.
  • the assembled housing has a relative flat front section (11), the upright Formations (12) carries, generally a reverse Have a J shape.
  • a rear section (14) is integrally formed with the front portion and has a greater depth than this.
  • Four upstanding columns (16) extend from the top Surface of the rear section so facing up that they're in a side-by-side relationship are arranged.
  • each training has a generally square Cross section, whereas the rear section one has outwardly projecting wing (25).
  • this is Inner case shaped so that there are two at (26) and (27) shown spaces defined.
  • the housing takes three electrically conductive Contact elements (30). Each contact element (30) is generally L-shaped. One leg (31) each Contact element extends through the space (27) above and ends in an IDC contact (34), which in the Gap between adjacent columns (16) is arranged and generally at 45 ° to the level of the gap extends over them. The other leg (36) each Contact element extends generally along the lower surface of the housing in the room (26) and is profiled so that it has a curved part (37) defined that hangs down so that it goes through in the bottom surface of the case trained slot (20) protrudes. The contact element (36) ends in a foot section (38) leading into the room (26) protrudes upwards.
  • a connector element of the one in the drawings can be used to create a Connection between the contact elements (30) and other contacts, for example from a PCB are worn, or other contacts within an insert or one conventional arrangement of contact and molded body manufacture.
  • Figures 1 and 4 show how that Connector element related to a molded Contact assembly (40) can be used.
  • the molded contact assembly at (40) shown contains openings (41) and (42) with a Shape that is designed to match that of the bottom Surface of the connector element worn training (22) and (23). Each opening has one relatively narrow section (43) and a relatively wide section (44).
  • the contact element When moving the connector element the contact element is in this position (36) after the contacts (46) of the assembly (40) Have contacted leg (36) of the contact element, moved upwards so that the foot (38) in the room (26) moved further up.
  • the intrinsic elasticity of the Contact element (36) ensures that between it and the contacts (46) of the assembly (40) a good one Contact is established.
  • Figure 6 shows a printed circuit board (50) which has a connector element (10) receives.
  • the board (50) has openings (41) and (42) on that of the contact assembly (50) of Figure 1 correspond. If the connector element on the PCB (50) is attached, come Contact element sections (37) with contact islands (51) engaged on the board (50).
  • the connector element (10) of Figures 1 to 6 can with a cover member (55), as in Figure 7 and 8 shown.
  • the cover member (55) is worn on the training (12) that it between an open position ( Figure 7) and a closed position ( Figure 8) can be pivoted can.
  • the inside of the cover member (55) can thus be profiled that when it is in its closed Position is moved, the profiled parts cause that insulated wires the insulation displacement contacts (34) in Intervene and an electric one with them Establish contact. This arrangement eliminates the Need for your own core insertion tool.
  • An advantage of the present connector element is that it is both a printed circuit board as well an insert molding or a conventional one Can contact arrangement of contact and molded body without any additional parts, for example upright pens are provided that are usually required when contacting Printed circuit boards are used.
  • By the Connector element also eliminates the need for Solder joints.
