Definitions
- the invention relates to an electrical ribbon cable with at least one on one Carrier, in particular a carrier film, arranged flat electrical conductor tracks according to the features of the preamble of claim 1.
- Such electrical ribbon cables are known and are used wherever not enough space is available for standard round cables, which also go also have a higher weight compared to ribbon cables.
- To contact such ribbon cables with other ribbon cables or with electrical, Electronic or similar devices or modules require the ribbon cable to be provided with a connector.
- For contacting the conductor tracks with a connector it is known that the conductor track is soldered to the connector becomes. Since the ribbon cable, especially when used in harsh environmental conditions, tensile or compressive forces also act on the conductor track strain relief is provided in the form of one on the connector arranged tab is at least partially placed around the conductor track and on a way that is mechanically deformed that this tab the conductor track pierces.
- the invention has for its object to the disadvantages described above avoid.
- a plastic part is arranged on the carrier in this way is that the plastic part together with a part of the conductor track a plug or forms a socket.
- The, for example, approximately wedge-shaped plastic part is either prefabricated and then attached to the carrier (for example by gluing) or directly connected to the carrier by injection molding.
- the plastic part can be done in this way realizes a plug or a socket on at least one end of the ribbon cable who do not need any other contact partners, such as contact pins or the like, since the end area of the exposed conductor track forms the contact partner. So it is possible, not just one end of a single ribbon cable with a plug or one To provide socket. Because it can also be the ends of two or more, for example Ribbon cables are provided with a common plastic part and on this Be contacted or form a plug or a socket.
- the advantages of the configuration according to the invention are therefore that the Number of parts (ribbon cable including connector) significantly reduced, which means also lower costs due to the reduced number of parts and also due to of the reduced assembly effort.
- the functional reliability increased because a connection between the conductor track and the contact partner (e.g. manufactured by soldering).
- the ribbon cable is designed in particular as a flexible ribbon cable, whereby it it is also conceivable that the carrier is rigid (in particular as a circuit board).
- Figure 1 shows the basic structure of a ribbon cable 1, which consists of a Carrier film 2 exists on which a conductor track 3 (or several conductor tracks 3 in parallel to each other) are arranged.
- a ribbon cable 1 which consists of a Carrier film 2 exists on which a conductor track 3 (or several conductor tracks 3 in parallel to each other) are arranged.
- a wedge-shaped Plastic part 4 arranged on the carrier film 2 (for example by gluing or Injection).
- the structure created in this way represents a plug, whereby at least in a partial area of the plastic part 4 the ones lying there Conductors are exposed.
- the conductor tracks 3 In the remaining area of the ribbon cable 1 are the conductor tracks 3 either exposed or as a rule of one Protected cover film.
- Figure 2 shows two correspondingly constructed ribbon cable 1, each of one have their own plastic parts 4 and 5, the two plastic parts 4 and 5 be joined together so that a shaped and trained according to Figure 2 Connector is created.
- this connector has at least one Plastic part a locking hook 6 with which this connector in its counterpart is fixable.
- the two plastic parts 4 and 5 are also used, for example Locking hooks mechanically connected to each other or can also be glued or the like are connected together.
- FIG. 3 shows the way in which a connector is manufactured, as was shown in FIG. 1.
- the plastic part 4 has two halves 7 and 8, which are in the form of a film hinge are trained. With these two halves 7 and 8, the carrier film 2 of a single ribbon cable 1 or the end region of the carrier film from connected to several ribbon cables. After this is done, the two Halves 7 and 8 brought together to form (dashed) plastic part 4 (wedge-shaped) and form the connector as shown in Figure 1.
- the two halves 7 and 8 are connected to each other by force and / or positive locking and keep the shown shape after matching.
- a connector is shown again, in which the plastic part 4 in turn consists of two Halves 7 and 8 exist, but are movable relative to each other.
- the 6 configured plug inserted into a socket designed according to Figure 4 has been introduced, a spacer between the two halves 7 and 8, the the conductor tracks of the plug against the corresponding conductor tracks of the socket presses.
- the spacer is designed, for example, as a wedge 9, which after its insertion is fixable in position, which can be done for example by gluing.
- the spacer element it is possible for the spacer element to be designed as a spring element, in this way to tolerances and deformations in the operation of the connector to be able to compensate.
- FIG. 7 shows the use of a plug in a housing (connector housing) by two To connect ribbon cables to each other.
- One is an overhead ribbon cable again provided with its plastic part 4, which has a in its end region has raised edge to better the shaped connector into the housing to be able to introduce.
- the second flat ribbon cable lies approximately plane-parallel in the housing on, the two ribbon cables are to be aligned in such a way that the corresponding conductor tracks 3 lie opposite or one above the other.
- the housing the plug-in connection consists in particular of an upper housing part 10 and a Lower housing part 11, these two parts of the housing forming a slot which take the plug (with the plastic part 4).
- the ribbon cable below is also inserted into this slot and fixed in position. This fixation can for example, that the plastic part 4 with its ribbon cable in introduced the area between the upper housing part 10 and the lower housing part 11 and presses on the ribbon cable underneath.
- the upper housing part 10 also has a recess 12 which is connected to the latching hook 6 the plastic part 4 corresponds to the position fixation of the same.
- Figure 8 shows a connector, in which again a plastic part 4 on the carrier film 2 of the Ribbon cable is arranged.
- the plastic part 4 has a spring element 13 with which it faces one another outer component, in particular a housing (for example upper housing part 10), supports.
- the spring element 13 is designed, for example, as a metal bow spring, can also be made in one piece with the plastic part 4.
- Others too geometric shapes of the spring element 13, such as. B. are a protruding tab possible.
- Figure 9 shows an example of a plurality of ribbon cables 1, each with at their end Plastic parts 4 are provided to form a plug or a socket. Because of the formation of a film hinge 14 between the two halves of the plastic part 4 and depending on the orientation of the angle of the film hinge 4, the ribbon cable 1, which should have different installation directions when installed, first in be made in one direction, the later laying direction from the Angle of the film hinge 14 results. For fixing the position of the ribbon cable 1 or its Plastic parts 4 in the later installed state, the plastic parts 4 have fasteners on, which are designed for example as fastening tabs 15.
- Figure 10 shows different options, such as different electrical devices 16 to 18 (for example sensors, actuators and / or control units or the like) with the plugs or sockets according to the invention with one another by means of ribbon cable 1 can be connected.
- a ribbon cable z. B. connector 19 for Available which are designed according to the geometry shown in Figure 1.
- Such Plugs 19 correspond to sockets 20 which have the geometric shape according to FIG. 4 correspond.
- corresponding ones can also be made on the ribbon cable 1 involved Plugs 19 or sockets 20 may be arranged.
- the associated ribbon cable 1 with a plug 21 is provided, which corresponds to the configuration according to FIG. 7 or Figure 8 is formed.
- a socket 22 in the device 18 (or on this device) available, which is designed according to the configuration shown in Figure 7. It can also be seen that depending on the orientation of the angle of the film hinge 14 (see. Figure 9) the laying direction of the ribbon cable 1 can be varied, but this does not depend on is limited to a right angle, but any angle corresponding to that Installation situation are realizable.
