Definitions

  • the invention relates to a plug-in connector.
  • Plug-in connectors of this type are used, for example, for attaching cables to devices in electrical appliances, machines, motors, vehicles or the like.
  • a plug-in connector of this type is known, for example, from DE 20 2005 000 883 U1 .
  • the object of the invention is to provide a plug-in connector which can be used for different plug-in contacts and simplifies the process of connection and attachment of a cable to a device.
  • the invention provides the plug-in connector according to claim 1, including: a pair of plugs housings with two connectable plug housings and a pair of contact housings with two connectable contact housings, each plug housing comprising at least one socket for a contact housing.
  • each contact housing can have a size which is adapted to the plug housing socket and/or standardised so contact housings equipped with different plug-in contacts can be inserted into the same plug housing.
  • the same plug-in connector can therefore be used for different plug-in contacts.
  • the contact housings can be connected to cable-side and device-side terminals outside the plug housing to simplify the connection process and the attachment of a cable to a device.
  • the plug-in connector is configured in such a way that the contact housings are brought into contact on connection of the plug housings.
  • the connection process and the attachment of the cable which is to be attached via the plug connector to the device can be further simplified in this way.
  • the plug housing is lockable with a locking device.
  • the locking device can prevent the plug housings from coming apart even under the influence of forces of abrasions.
  • At least one of the plug housings is divisible, so that a contact housing can be arranged in the socket.
  • a contact housing can therefore be arranged in the socket in a particularly simple and secure manner, thus simplifying assembly of the contact housings in the plug housing.
  • each plug housing comprises at least one socket which is shielded from electromagnetic radiation.
  • the influence of electromagnetic radiation from the environment can cause interference, in particular during signal transmission, and this represents a considerable safety risk, especially in automotive applications or in the aerospace sector.
  • the entire plug housing is shielded from electromagnetic radiation.
  • a socket of a plug housing is also shielded from electromagnetic radiation of which the origin is located in a different socket.
  • a socket of a plug housing and/or the plug housing itself is lined and/or clad with a material, preferably metal, which acts as a shield against electromagnetic radiation, or is constructed completely from this material.
  • each plug housing comprises at least one further socket for a further contact housing. Power and signals can therefore be transmitted, for example, simultaneously via the plug-in connection.
  • sockets of a plug housing are adjacent transversely to a connection direction of the plug housings.
  • the plug in connection can therefore have any number of sockets for contact housings.
  • a plug housing and/or a contact housing has a polygonal, preferably substantially rectangular, more preferably substantially square cross-section.
  • a plurality of plug housings and/or contact housings can therefore be arranged particularly densely next to one another.
  • a cross-section of a contact housing is adapted substantially to a cross-section of a socket.
  • the contact housing therefore has little play in the socket for movement within the socket, for example during vibrations. The reliability of the plug-in connection can thus be improved.
  • a contact housing can be fixed non-positively and/or positively in a socket.
  • the contact housing can therefore be held securely and rigidly in the socket and has no play for movement within the socket, for example during vibrations. The reliability of the plug-in connection can therefore be further improved.
  • the plug-in connector can be fixed rotatably on a flange.
  • the direction in which a cable which is to be attached to a device can be guided away from the device, can therefore be adjusted as desired.
  • plug-in connector can be fixed or locked in a rotational position relative to the flange.
  • the plug-in connection can thus be prevented from rotating unintentionally.
  • the plug-in connector is configured as an angle plug-in connector.
  • a cable which is to be attached to a device can thus be led away from the device with slight spacing, and this has proven to be particularly practical, in particular in a restricted space.
  • connection direction of the plug housing is oriented along, parallel to or transversely to an axis of rotation of the plug-in connector.
  • transverse as used in this description also includes the meanings of the terms “oblique”, “angled” and, in particular, “perpendicular”.
  • one contact housing is configured as a plug pin and one contact housing as a plug socket.
  • the contact housings can therefore engage in one another and be permanently connected.
  • a further preferred embodiment of the invention relates to plug-in connector including a pair of plug housings with two connectable plug housings and a pair of plug-in contacts with two connectable plug-in contacts, the plug-in connector comprising a locking device for locking the plug housing and the plug-in contacts being brought into contact when the plug housings are locked.
  • the plug housings can therefore be connected with a hand grip and at the same time locked.
  • the locking device is mounted movably on a plug housing. A movement of the locking device relative to the plug housing can therefore be coupled to prevent faulty assembly of the plug-in connector.
  • the locking device may be held captive on a plug housing.
  • the risk of losing the locking device, for example during transportation, can also be reduced in this way.
  • the locking device is movable transversely to a connection direction of the plug housings, for locking the plug housings.
  • the locking device is movable in a plane of a housing division for locking the plug housings. This can prevent the locking device from being inadvertently released when a force acts transversely to the plane of the housing division.
  • the locking device is configured as a substantially U-shaped hoop, surrounding the plug housing at least in some regions when locked.
  • the plug housings can therefore be held together in an interlocking secure manner.
  • a movement of the locking device relative to at least one of the plug housings is guided by a guide device. This enables the locking device to be operated easily, even by inexperienced personnel.
  • a movement of the locking device relative to the first plug housing can be guided via a first link guide and a movement of the locking device relative to the second plug housing by a second link guide.
  • the plug housings are thus guided particularly reliably and precisely relative to one another, and the risk of a defective connection or the risk of damage to plug contacts by defective connection is reduced.
  • At least one guide link is constructed on the side of the locking device.
  • the guide link can be constructed particularly easily in the locking device.
  • a further preferred embodiment of the invention relates to a plug-in connector system including a plug-in connector according to any one of the preceding claims and at least two pairs of contact housings with two respective connectable contact housings, the pairs of contact housings being equipped with different pairs of plug-in contacts.
  • the same plug-in connector can therefore be combined with different pairs of contact housings or pairs of plug-in contacts and is thus substantially more versatile than a conventional plug-in connector.
  • Fig. 1 is a perspective view of a first embodiment of the plug-in connector according to the invention for attaching a multi-wire cable for transmitting power and signals to a motor, in the connected state.
  • Fig. 2 is an exploded view of the plug-in connector according to the invention from Fig. 1 .
  • Fig. 3 is a perspective view of a second embodiment of the plug-in connector according to the invention for attaching a multi-wire cable for transmitting power and signals to a motor, in the connected state.
