Definitions

  • the invention relates to a metal / fixative socket according to the preamble of claim 1 and to an ignition device with such a socket according to the preamble of claim 14.
  • Metal / insulating base for detonators of personal protective equipment are also known as metal / glass feedthroughs ( DE 10 2005 009 644 A1 . EP 1 061 325 A1 ).
  • These bases consist essentially of an annular base body or ring with a sealed from an insulating body of glass or a Glaspfropfen ring opening and at least one sealed by the insulator melted by passing pin, which acts as an electrical conductor on the outside of the igniter forming side of the Metal / glass passage forms an outer electrical connection element (plug) and is connected inside the igniter with an electric ignition element which is used in activating the ignition device for igniting a suitable ignition or explosive-containing Zündsatzes.
  • the object of the invention is to show a metal / fixing material socket, which is characterized by a simplified production.
  • a metal / fixative socket according to claim 1 or 3 is formed.
  • An ignition device for personal protective devices of motor vehicles, in particular airbags is the subject of claim 14.
  • the ring or ring body of the metal / fixative base is made of a metallic material, preferably high grade steel, by cold forming from a suitable starting material. This results in addition to a low-cost production in particular the advantage that the ring by the cold forming or by the high deformation pressure applied in this case has a high strength and high density.
  • the ring or ring body is provided in the region of its at least one ring opening at least with a projecting into this ring opening projection on which then serving as a ground conductor or ground pin is secured in a suitable manner.
  • the design offers the possibility, in the manufacture of the metal / fixative socket, of pre-assembling the ring with the pin attached to the projection and then using this pin as an assembly aid for the assembly of the insulator, e.g. lecturfädeln on this pin a the insulating body forming and provided with a further pin glass bead and then heat the arrangement thus formed, for example, to melt the glass bead or the insulating body forming glass plug to the required temperature.
  • the handling in the manufacture of the metal / fixative socket is substantially simplified.
  • the fixing agent in the invention is an electrically insulating material, for example in the form of glass, ceramic, a glass-ceramic compound or plastic.
  • the ignition device for airbags or similar passenger protection devices, in particular of motor vehicles, generally designated 1 in the figures essentially comprises two pins 2 and 3 made of an electrically conductive or metallic material, for example of nickel-iron and with a suitable surface corrosion protection, for example in the form of a nickel layer, a metal / fixing base in the form of a metal / glass base 4 or in the form of a hermetically sealed electrical metal / glass feedthrough for the pins 2 and 3, a sleeve-like, an interior of the igniter 1 enclosing housing 5, an igniting charge 6 arranged in this interior and made of an ignition or explosive suitable for such igniters, a cover 7 as well an electrical ignition element 6 arranged in the ignition set 6 and connected to the local ends of the pins 2 and 3, for example in the form of an ignition or wire bridge or in the form of another electrical ignition element.
  • an electrically conductive or metallic material for example of nickel-iron and with a suitable surface corrosion protection, for example in the form of a nickel layer,
  • the ignition device 1 is in a known manner part of an electrically actuated gas generator for generating a passenger protection element (airbag) activating gas generator.
  • the metal / glass base 4 is in the illustrated embodiment of an annular body or ring 9, which is made of a metallic material, preferably made of a high-grade steel by cold forming, namely, integrally with a projection 9.2, at the the interior of the Igniter 1 remote from the lower end face of the ring 9 from the annular wall 9.1 projects radially into the ring opening into it.
  • a fixing or insulating body 10 is received, through which the two pins 2 and 3 in parallel to each other and parallel to the axis of the ring 9 and thus also parallel to the axis of the sleeve-like housing 5 are hermetically sealed and electrically separated from each other, so that the projecting into the interior of the ignition device 1 and connected to the ignition element 8 ends and from the ignition device. 1 or the metal / glass socket 4 projecting and serving as a connector ends of the pins 2 and 3 result.
  • the insulating body 10 consists of a material suitable for such insulating material and is designed for example as a glass plug, which is connected by a glass / metal fusion bond with the ring 9 and in which the pins 2 and 3 are melted.
  • Other electrically insulating materials are conceivable for the insulating body 10, for example ceramics, ceramic-glass composite materials, plastics, for example epoxy resin, etc.
  • the pin 2 forms the ground connection and for this purpose is also electrically connected to the free end 9.2.1 of the projection 9.2, for example by soldering, e.g. Brazing, or by welding, such as resistance or laser welding. Furthermore, the projection 9.2 also forms an additional mechanical or positive support for the insulating body 10.
  • the metal / glass base 4 is inserted in the illustrated embodiment in one end of the sleeve-like housing 5 and sealed with its ring 9 at this end to the housing 5, for example, non-positively by corresponding deformation or compression of the housing 5 on the ring 9 or by welding, such as resistance or laser welding.
  • Other connections of the metal / glass socket 4 with the housing 5 are possible.
  • the above-described ignition device 1 is characterized, inter alia, by the fact that the ring 9 is produced by cold forming, which leads to significant cost savings in the production of the ignition device 1 through economical use of material and through reduced production times.
  • the use of high quality steel materials for the ring 9 also a sufficiently high strength for the metal / fixative base or for the metal / glass base 4, in particular against undesired extrusion of the insulating body 10 from the ring 9 is achieved.
  • the metallic materials used for the pins 2 and 3, the metal / glass base 4 and the housing 5 can be reliably nickel-plated.
  • a simplified connection of the metal / glass socket to the ground conductor, namely to the pin 2 is achieved.
  • This simplified ground conductor connection also offers the possibility of using simple and identical pins 2 and 3 for both conductors.
  • the assembly of the pins 2 and 3 and the insulating body 10, in particular also the mounting of or the glass beads used for the production of the insulating body 10 is substantially simplified and that u.a. in that, in the case of pin 2 preassembled on projection 9.2, the insulating body, e.g. the insulating body 10 forming glass bead together with the pin 3 can be placed on the pin 9 held on the ring 9 and thereby the metal / glass socket 4 forming elements are reliably secured together during the further process.
  • connection of the pin 2 with the projection 9.2 can be done by soldering with low consumption of solder material or there is, as already stated, the possibility of a connection of the pin 2 with the projection 9.2 by welding, being characterized by the reduced mass in the region of Vorsprung 9.2 can achieve optimum temperature conditions during welding in short process times.
