Definitions

the invention relates to an electrical connector with hermaphroditic contact elements according to the preamble of patent claim 1.
the invention relates to a plug with such connectors.
a generic electrical connector is for example from the DE 198 09 881 A1 out.
An advantage of such connector is not only in the ease of use and universal applicability, a great advantage of such connector is also the ease of manufacture. Only one type of contact element and one type of insulating housing must be made. Due to the fork-shaped design of the contact elements such that the electrical contact element of a first connector opens fork-shaped to the electrical contact element of a second connector, and the inner surfaces of each having two legs fork at least partially a leg of the enclose respective associated other contact element, a defined safe and good electrical contact is in the inserted state.
the present invention is therefore the object of developing a generic connector such that on the one hand the contact width (ie, the contact surface in the interconnected state of two electrical connectors) is increased and on the other hand, a holding force is mediated by the contact elements in the mated state of two electrical connectors ,
one of the two legs has a convex projecting shape and that the other of the two legs has a concave recess whose shape is adapted to the convex projecting shape, that in the connected state of two connectors, the convex projecting formation of the first connector at least partially positively abuts the concave recess of the second connector and vice versa, not only a substantial increase in the contact width is possible, because in the region of the positive Concerning the two contact elements together a surface contact is achieved by forming an extended contact area in a very advantageous manner.
the leg having the convex projecting shape is curved in an arc shape.
this arcuate for example, by a substantially mirrored S-shaped configuration, a very advantageous spring effect is achieved.
the arcuate design is chosen so that the arc points away from each of the concave recess having contact element of the other connector and with this a void, for example, substantially in the form of an "O" includes. As a result, a particularly good spring action is achieved towards the concave recess.
the convex projecting formation is advantageously tulip-shaped. Due to the tulip-shaped shape when nesting ensures that the contact element with the convex shape via the contact element with the concave recess during the insertion process to some extent slides, being pushed away during the insertion process by the tulip-shaped formation of the element with the concave shape initially outward. As a result, incorrect connections, which can lead to damage of the contact elements excluded. Due to the rounded shape of both the contact element with the convex, tulip-shaped formation and the contact element with the concave recess optimal sliding is possible and tilting, snagging and the like prevented very effectively.
the leg having the concave recess has a flat surface on its side facing away from the concave recess.
the concave recess having legs is advantageously so wide that this flat surface in the connected, d. H. in the nested state of two connectors each rests against the flat surface of the corresponding contact element of the second connector.
the arcuately converging foot region of the two legs has a constriction at its transition to a Platinenlötan gleich Scheme.
a particularly good spring action of the two legs is achieved.
This spring action also allows a position tolerance compensation of the two connectors to each other.
the lower Lötan gleich Scheme is formed planar or linear and is preferably wider than the insulating.
each connector has on its free end faces guide elements for mutual centering at the mating.
the insulating housing on its side facing the solder connection area has fastening pins which are secured in corresponding openings of the board on which the plug should, fit.
the electrical connector is characterized in that only one type of electrical contact elements and only one type of insulating housing must be provided. It is particularly advantageous to manufacture the contact elements from a flat material, in particular by stamping. This is a decisive advantage, in particular with regard to mass production.
FIG Fig. 1 An embodiment of an electrical connector according to the invention with hermaphroditic contact elements, shown in FIG Fig. 1 , in an insulating, for example, plastic housing 300.
a plurality of adjacent, mounted in the housing 300 contact elements At their respective lower sides substantially flat and linear formed Lötan gleich Schemee 180 are provided, which are preferably formed wider than the insulating housing 300 itself and thus projecting laterally over the housing (see. Fig. 3 where two nested electrical connectors are shown).
planar or linear design has the decisive advantage of a large-scale solder joint, which ensures on the one hand a high mechanical strength, on the other hand, but also a good electrical conductivity.
the housing 300 in the upper region on a flat surface 310, which acts as a support surface of the projecting over the housing solder terminal portions 180 in the nested state of two connectors (see also Fig. 3 ).
guide elements 320 are further formed on the end faces for mutual centering in the connection of two such connectors.
the guide elements 320 are each tapered on their upper side viewed in the insertion direction, for example in the form of a truncated pyramid 325, in order to optimally achieve nesting, whereas on their one board or printed circuit board 401, 402 (FIG. Fig. 3 ) facing side 326 have flat surfaces in order to realize the largest possible contact surface.
the insulating housing 300 surrounds the entire, to be described below contact area of a nested connector pair, so that neither dirt can get into the contact area nor an electrical fault, such as a short circuit is possible.
the contact area is also electrically isolated in this way.
the insulating housing 300 on its respective Lötan gleich Schemeen 180 side facing mounting pins 340 which fit into corresponding openings in a board and there on the one hand to allow such a connector precise position, on the other hand fix this there ( Fig. 2 ).
Each contact element 100 is manufactured, for example, as a stamped part from a flat material and has a flat surface over the entire surface area (parallel to the plane of the drawing).
Each contact element 100 is formed by two differently shaped legs 110 and 120, the bifurcated are each open to a second equal leg pair out to - as it is in Fig. 2 is shown - in the nested state to include such a pair of legs.
One of the two legs 110 has a convex projecting formation 111 in its upper region.
the other of the two legs 120 has a concave recess 121, the shape of which is adapted to the convexly projecting formation 111, that in the nested state of two such connectors, as in Fig. 2 is shown, the convex projecting formation 111 at least partially positive fit against the concave recess 121 and thus forms a flat contact.
the contact width ie the contact surface in comparison to known from the prior art and for example from the DE 198 09 881 A1 resulting connector allows such training of the two legs and an improved holding force with which the two connectors are held together.
the convex projecting formation 111 and the concave recess 121 form a latching connection.
This latching connection is achieved, inter alia, particularly advantageous in that the leg 110, on which the convexly projecting formation 111 is arranged, is curved in an arc shape, wherein the arch 112 in each case points away from the leg 120 with the concave recess 121 and together therewith forms a void 170.
This arcuate design of the leg 120 allows a particularly good spring action, the holding force is increased, the leg 110 - as mentioned - is under a bias that is adjustable by choice of material, choice of bow and the like.
the leg 110 with the convexly projecting formation 111 is formed at its front end in a contact tulip-shaped 113 and rounded.
the leg 120 with the concave recess 121 is at its top rounded and has a rounded, bevelled or similarly profiled surface 123.
the contact tulip-shaped formation 113 of the first leg 110 and the rounded, bevelled or similarly formed surface 123 of the second leg 120 allow easy nesting of such two connectors without entanglements, clamps and the like.
the two legs slide 110, 120 during the mating process along each other, the leg 110 when sliding over the rounded surface 123 slightly outwardly, ie pushed away from the leg 120, which is possible due to the biased bow 112 in an optimal manner in order then to latch in the inserted state by the shape and the recess to each other in a sense.
the legs 120 which have the concave recess 121 each have a flat surface 129 on their side facing away from the concave recess.
the contact elements 120 are formed so wide that in the nested state of two contact elements 100, the flat surfaces 129 of two adjacent legs 120 abut each other and thus form a flat contacting at this point.
Fig. 2 shows the fully nested condition of two such connectors that electrically connect and electrically contact two boards 401, 402 in this manner.
the planar-shaped solder connection regions 180 rest on corresponding contact elements of the circuit boards 401, 402 and are fastened there (by a solder connection).
Each fork-shaped contact leg pair has a constriction 190 at its lower side facing the solder connection region 180.
this training also allows a position tolerance compensation of the two connectors to each other.
outwardly directed arms 191 are provided having tabs 192 for securing the metallic contact elements 100 in the insulating housing 300 upon press-fitting of the contact elements 100 into the insulating housing 300. In this manner, the contact elements 100 are removably mounted and retained in the insulating housing.
