Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a socket for receiving an electrical connector, consisting of a base housing comprising a mounting flange and an integrally made with this, Steckerstattingn having plug receptacle, and a sealing contour which rests in the inserted state of the plug to this and the plug with the Connector receptacle tightly connects.
  • the present invention further relates to an electrical plug-in device system consisting of a plug and a socket, which consists of a base housing comprising a mounting flange and an integrally made with this, Steckerstattingn having plug receptacle, and a sealing contour, wherein in the inserted state of the plug, the sealing contour of Socket on the plug rests and this tightly connects to the connector receptacle.
  • Sockets of plug-in device systems of this type are provided on the one hand for mobile use, for example in line rollers, power strips and mobile distributors on the other hand, but also for installation on a stationary support, for example on a wall or a cabinet.
  • VDE 0620-1 The standard to be applied in the present case is VDE 0620-1, which makes special demands on the tightness against water ingress of such plug-in device systems.
  • a standard-compliant design of such plug-in device systems requires that they comply with protection class IP44 or IP54.
  • TPE rubber or thermoplastic elastomer
  • a soft material at a socket made of a thermoplastic such as polyamide (PA), polyethylene (PE), polypropylene (PP), polycarbonate (PC) , Acrylonitrile-butadiene-styrene (ABS), which are each a relative to the rubber or thermoplastic elastomer hard material was fixed, for example, by molding or screwing, which sealing contour after plugging the plug into the socket sealingly comes to rest on the plug and so prevents the ingress of water into the plug receptacle of the socket.
  • PA polyamide
  • PE polyethylene
  • PP polypropylene
  • PC polycarbonate
  • ABS Acrylonitrile-butadiene-styrene
  • the material of the sealing contour used hitherto due to its softness, is susceptible to mechanical influences from the outside and the material properties change nonlinearly over time and temperature.
  • VDE 0620-1 subordinate socket or a standard subjacent Steckvoriquesssystem which is simple in construction, easier to manufacture, less sensitive to external mechanical effects and less expensive to produce.
  • this is at a socket for receiving an electrical connector, consisting of a base housing comprising a mounting flange and an integrally manufactured with this, Steckerstattingn having plug receptacle, and a sealing contour which rests in the inserted state of the plug to this and the plug with the plug receptacle tight connects, thereby achieving that the sealing contour and the base housing are made of the same material, that the sealing contour has a tubular shape, and that the plug receptacle consists of two sections, wherein a first portion seen in the insertion direction of the plug, behind a connector facing mounting flange surface is arranged and cup-shaped and a second section in front of the Plug facing mounting flange surface is arranged.
  • mounting flange, connector receptacle and sealing contour can be produced in a single injection process.
  • a classical sealing contour from the mounting flange softer material is not required, but also by using a sealing contour of the harder material of the base housing, such as a thermoplastic, which can be achieved to meet the standard required tightness.
  • the production of the sealing contour of the harder material of the base housing also has the advantage that the sealing contour is more resistant to external influences.
  • the sealing contour has a sleeve-like shape, so that it surrounds the plug on all sides and rests against this.
  • the wall thickness of the sealing contour according to the invention is less than 1.2 mm, preferably less than 0.8 mm. It has been found that this wall thickness in combination with the material from which the sealing contour is made according to the invention, is optimally suited to meet the requirements of the standard VDE 0620-1 with respect to water tightness. A larger wall thickness would cause the plug can not be properly inserted into the connector receptacle, because the sealing contour would oppose the insertion too high resistance due to their rigidity.
  • the second section is constructed sleeve-shaped.
  • the sleeve-shaped second portion forms an extension of the cup-shaped first portion of the plug receptacle opposite to the plugging direction of the plug, and the sealing contour is at a Plug facing end portion of the second portion and forms an extension thereof in the direction of the plug.
  • the formation of the sealing contour as an extension of the connector receptacle allows a particularly simple production, since the mold used for the production of the socket can continue to do without a core.
  • the second, facing from the plug top of the mounting flange in opposite to the insertion of the plug protruding portion of the connector receptacle has a greater wall thickness than the sealing contour. This makes it possible that the transition of the sealing contour in this second portion of the connector receptacle due to the differences in the wall thickness, the sealing contour is slightly pivotable about this area.
  • the wall thickness of the second portion of the connector receptacle is to be chosen so that it is essentially unyielding and rigid in the provided by the standard for the purposes of compliance with protection IP44 and IP54 insertion force, whereas the wall thickness of the sealing contour, is selected so that when inserting the plug into the plug receptacle with the insertion force provided by the standard, the sealing contour is slightly outward, away from the axis of the plug and the plug receptacle pivotable or expandable or compressible, so that although made according to the invention of the same material, the sealing contour can fit particularly well on the plug and meet the requirements for tightness.
  • the ratio of the wall thicknesses of the sealing contour and the second section of the plug receptacle is less than 1/4, but preferably between 1/2 and 1/4.
  • the plug is provided in a preferred embodiment of the invention in the region of impingement of a sealing edge of the sealing contour with a run-on slope.
  • the surface of the plug viewed in the plug-in direction of the plug before the run-on slope, has a sealing edge on which the sealing edge of the sealing contour comes to lie sealingly in the plugged state of the plug.
  • the sealing edge of the sealing contour ensures optimum sealing.
  • the design or arrangement of the sealing edge is crucial.
  • the sealing contour has an end face which, at the same time, viewed in the insertion direction of the plug, is the first end face of the base housing, and in that this end face forms a sealing edge with an inner surface of the sealing contour.
  • a second section 9 is arranged in the plug-in direction 10 of the plug in front of this plug-facing mounting flange 8 and has a substantially tubular shape. It forms an extension of the first section 7 and houses not only guide elements 12 but also ground contacts 13.
  • the length a of the sealing contour 5, and the length b of the second portion 9 of the connector receptacle 3 and the depth c of the first portion 7 of the connector receptacle 3 thus together form the entire available insertion depth of the connector receptacle.
  • the sealing contour 5 has a smaller wall thickness than the second section 9 of the plug receptacle 3 and is thereby slightly pivotable about the end 14 of the second section 9 or the sleeve-shaped sealing contour 5 can thereby slightly expand up to the end 14.
  • sealing contour 5 and second section 9 can still by one or more, preferably in the insertion direction 10 extending stiffening webs 4a, 4b (see Figure 6 ), which preferably extend from the mounting flange surface 8 to the free end of the sealing contour 5, wherein their extent in the circumferential direction of the sealing contour 5, however, less than 10% of the circumference of the sealing contour 5 makes.
  • the sealing contour 5 with its inner sealing edge 15 seals against the surface of the plug 6.
  • the absolute wall thickness of the sealing contour 5 is less than 1.2 mm, preferably less than 0.8 mm, so that the sealing contour 5 the insertion of the plug 6 is not too much resistance oppose and, if necessary, be slightly distended.
  • the ratio of the wall thickness of the sealing contour 5 to the sleeve-shaped, second portion 9 of the connector receptacle 3 is less than 1/4, but preferably between 1/2 and 1/4, so that the second section 9 forms a kind of rigid foundation for the sealing contour 5 arranged thereon and movable to a small extent, in particular expandable.
  • the surface of the plug 6 is provided in the region of the impact of the sealing edge 15 with a run-on slope 16, in front of which in the insertion direction 10 seen a substantially parallel to the axis 19 extending sealing edge 17 is arranged.
  • the sealing edge 15 comes to lie on the sealing edge 17 whereby the penetration of water into the connector receptacle 3 is prevented.
  • Figure 9 shows detail C. Figure 8 , wherein the interaction between the sealing edge 15 of the sealing contour 5 and the sealing edge 17 of the plug 6 is clearly visible. As a result, an optimal seal is achieved, wherein the embodiment or
  • the sealing edge 15 is formed by the end face (no separate reference number) of the sealing contour 5 and the inner surface 18 of the sealing contour 5.
  • the end face of the sealing contour 5 at the same time, seen in the insertion direction 10 of the plug 6, the first end face of the base housing 1.
  • the inner surface 18 of the sealing contour 5 is particularly in Figure 5 clearly visible.
