Definitions

  • the present invention refers to an adaptor device for printed circuit connectors.
  • an installer is obliged to modify the pre-existing conductors, creating a new one ad hoc which has, at a first end, an interface compatible with the first connector and at the second end, an interface compatible with the second connector.
  • the purpose of the present invention is that of avoiding the aforementioned drawbacks and in particular that of devising an adaptor device for printed circuit connectors that makes it possible to use apparatuses having an RJ-45 type connector as interface, even in systems using different types of interface.
  • Another purpose of the present invention is that of providing an adaptor device for printed circuit connectors that facilitates the installation of an electronic system making it unnecessary to make ad hoc conductors with interfaces.
  • Yet another purpose of the present invention is that of making an adaptor device for printed circuit connectors, in particular of the removable type, that maintains the characteristic of being removable.
  • an adaptor device for printed circuit connectors is shown, wholly indicated with 10.
  • the adaptor device 10 comprises, at a first end, an interface 11 configured as an RJ-45 type connector from which at least two contacts 12 face out on a first side.
  • the at least two contacts 12 each comprise a first portion 12a projecting from the RJ-45 type interface 11, a second portion 12b made as a track and a third portion 12c configured as a pin.
  • a third portion 12c of contact 12 can be made, in an equivalent way, as a cylindrical or flat pin.
  • the first portions 12a of the at least two contacts 12 respectively face out from the seats 18 for the contacts foreseen in the interface 11 arranged at the seventh and eighth standard position of the contacts of an RJ-45 type connector. In this way it is ensured that, even in case in which the adaptor is used inappropriately, there will be no short circuits that could damage the electronic components.
  • a housing seat 13 is foreseen, suitable for receiving a connector 14 for removable type printed circuit.
  • the seat 13 is made in such a way as to house different types of printed circuit connectors, like for example, a removable clamp connector 14 illustrated in figure 4 , or else a different type of removable connector like for example an insulation displacement connector.
  • the housing seat 13 has a box-shaped configuration open on one side and on top and houses inside of it the third portions 12c of contacts 12 that project towards the open upper face.
  • the third portion 12c configured as a pin is preferably made with sizes and diameter equal to that of the male pins mounted on printed circuits for coupling with standard type connectors 14.
  • the two contacts are spaced apart by a measurement corresponding to the standard measurement of the pitch of such male pins.
  • the standard type printed circuit connectors 14 comprise first seats 15 for coupling with at least two pin-shaped contacts, which then couple with the third portions 12c of the contacts 12 of the adaptor device 10 projecting inside the housing seat 13, and a second seat in which a plurality of conductors (not illustrated) are suitably inserted and held through special locking means.
  • the interface 11 is of the male RJ-45 type and therefore comprises, on the second side of the interface 11, opposite to where the contacts 12 face out, a flexible tab 16 diverging from the interface 11, suitable for cooperating with the seat of a female RJ-45 connector to keep a fixed but releasable coupling between the two connectors.
  • the housing seat 13 for printed circuit connectors faces out from the same side in which the flexible tab 16 is foreseen, thus ensuring a substantially equivalent bulk to that of a conventional male RJ-45 type connector.
  • the adaptor devices 10 according to the first two embodiments of the present invention can be connected to a device provided with a female RJ-45 type interface so as to transform such an interface into a generic interface for projecting male or pin connectors of a printed circuit board. It is possible in this way, to use any conductor for the connection of a device with RJ-45 interface to a system using a different interface.
  • Figures 6 and 7 show a third embodiment in which the interface 11 is of the female RJ-45 type, therefore comprising a seat 17 suitable for receiving a male RJ-45 connector, inside of which the first portions 12a of the at least two contacts 12 face outwards.
  • the first portions 12a of the at least two contacts 12 preferably face out from the seats 18 for the contacts foreseen in the interface 11 respectively arranged at the seventh and eighth standard position of the contacts of an RJ-45 type connector.
  • the adaptor device 10 can be used to modify the interface of a conductor having RJ-45 interfaces, so that it can be connected to a different type of interface.
