Definitions

  • the invention relates to a connector for flexible conductor foils with foil-insulated conductors according to the preamble of claim 1.
  • Flexible conductor foils with foil-insulated conductors are used today in the most diverse areas of entertainment and consumer electronics, but also in vehicle construction. Conductor foils are used in particular where a very flexible conductor structure with the lowest possible weight and limited space conditions is desired. Flexible conductor foils allow an orderly parallel routing of a large number of separate conductor tracks, larger bends also being possible and thus parts which can be connected in an electrically conductive manner and which are arranged in a very limited installation space. In automotive engineering in particular, such conductor foils must also be able to withstand greater mechanical influences, such as vibrations.
  • the contacting of the individual foil-insulated conductors is particularly important. In vehicle construction in particular, this contacting must be secure and protected from external mechanical influences. gene, but also be resistant to temperature and environmental influences of various types.
  • DE 10 2006 017 019 A1 discloses a connector for contacting a flexible printed circuit (FPC).
  • the plug has plug contact elements which are connected in an electrically conductive manner to cutting edges which penetrate and fix the conductors of the flexible printed circuit.
  • the connector housing has two housing parts which can be pushed into one another, one housing part supporting the cutting edges and the at least one plug contact element which is connected to them in an electrically conductive manner.
  • the flexible printed circuit must be positioned and held on one of the two housing parts while the second housing part is being assembled. The position of three parts must therefore be coordinated with one another during assembly. Such an assembly is particularly complex with regard to automated production and is therefore not without problems.
  • FR 2 956 780 shows the contacting of a flexible conductor foil with foil-insulated conductors, in which the individual foil-insulated conductors are pierced by knife-like tips and these tips, after they have pierced the conductor tracks, are bent in such a way that they simultaneously and simultaneously Clamp and hold contact of the corresponding conductor tracks. This is done with the help of crimp technology.
  • the cutting edges are in turn connected in an electrically conductive manner to plug connectors, with each foil-insulated conductor being assigned a plug connector which is contacted via a plurality of cutting edges.
  • DE 199 53 646 B4 discloses a plug-in connection for flexible conductor foils with foil-insulated conductors, with a plug and a mating connector, which are each provided on an end of the conductor foil and can be plugged into one another for the purpose of electrical contacting of the foil-insulated conductors.
  • the connector and the mating connector each have a base body and a cover, which can be brought into firm contact with the base body via a fixing mechanism.
  • At least one penetration contact element is provided between the base body and the cover, which provides at least one base plate made of electrically conductive material with penetration bodies.
  • the penetrating bodies are triangular shaped bodies formed from the base plate material, each having a triangular tip raised from the base plate and a triangular base opposite the triangular tip in the base plate, around which each shaped body is bent.
  • a large number of penetration bodies are provided in the base plate, the triangular bases of which each form an angle with the longitudinal axis of the base plate in such a way that the penetration bodies are arranged in succession with respect to the longitudinal axis of the base plate in alternation at an angle of ⁇ 60 °.
  • a foil-insulated conductor of the conductor foil end region can be arranged on the penetration contact element before the cover is brought into contact with the base body, the penetration contact element at least partially penetrating the foil-insulated conductor for the purpose of fixing the electrical contacting by pressing the cover against the base body.
  • DE 10 2015 100 401 A1 discloses a generic connector for flexible conductor foils with foil-insulated conductors, which is accessible for automatic production.
  • This plug connector has a plug connector housing in which at least one plug contact element is arranged, and with a connection area in which cutting edges which are electrically conductively connected to the at least one plug contact element can penetrate and fix at least one foil-insulated conductor while producing an electrical contact, the plug connector housing being two in - Slidable housing parts, the first housing part of which stores the cutting edges and the at least one plug-in contact element which is electrically conductively connected thereto, and the second housing part of which receives and stores the flexible conductor foil and which has at least one cutting edge receptacle adapted to the cutting edges, the boundary surfaces of which are designed such that at least part of the cutting is pushed into one another the two housing parts in the direction of the foil-insulated conductor.
  • the cutting edges are rigid and solid.
  • the connector was developed for foils in which the conductors are made from rolled
  • the connector according to the invention for flexible conductor foils with the features of claim 1 has the advantage that even flexible conductor foils with very thin foil-insulated conductors, which have been produced, for example, by means of galvanic deposition, can be contacted automatically, quickly and safely.
  • “Flexible” cutting means that the cutting edges can yield slightly when they penetrate the foil-insulated conductors.
  • the flexibility is adapted to the thickness of the foil-insulated conductors. The thinner the foil-insulated conductors, the more flexible the cutting edges are.
  • This connector for flexible conductor foils not only enables simple and in particular automatic contacting of the film-insulated conductor tracks, in particular also simultaneous contacting of several film-insulated conductor tracks arranged next to one another in the flexible conductor film with simultaneous assembly of the plug connectors in the connector housing, but in particular also a very effective one , electrically excellent and gas-tight contacting of the corresponding plug contacts, which also withstands mechanical loads and can therefore also be used in automobile construction, for example.
  • This excellent gas-tight contact is achieved by bending the cutting edges in the direction of the foil-insulated conductors. By bending the cutting edges, pressure is exerted on the contact surface and the electrical contact surface is increased. In this way, gas-tight contacting is realized.
  • the cutting edges are held in the connector housing under a certain tension.
  • the production of the electrical contacts by the cutting edges electrically connected to the connector takes place in a very advantageous manner simultaneously with the assembly of the connector housing by pushing the two connector housing parts into one another.
  • the flexible cutting edges can be designed in a wide variety of ways.
  • a very advantageous aspect provides that the flexible design is realized in that the cutting edges each have a cavity which enables the cutting edges to be elastically deformed, for example pressed together.
  • This cavity can in turn be designed in a wide variety of ways. It is particularly advantageous if the cavity has a contour adapted to the shape of the cutting edge. In this case, the cavity follows the cutting edge, so to speak, so that the cutting edges essentially have the shape of a web. The larger the cavity, the thinner the web and the better the cutting edge can be deformed, in other words the greater the flexibility.
  • the flexible cutting edges are each arranged between the cutting edges that are push the two housing parts in the direction of the foil-insulated conductor.
  • the second housing part has a receiving space which is adapted to the conductor film and has an opening in at least one housing wall for receiving the conductor film.
  • the flat flexible conductor film can be inserted into the second housing part and is held there in the receiving space adapted to it.
  • the opening and the receiving space are arranged in the second housing part such that a conductor foil arranged in the receiving space comes to lie essentially perpendicular to the cutting edges. This enables the flexible conductor foil to be pre-positioned in the second housing part by pushing the flexible conductor foil into the second housing part, because the flexible conductor foil is already arranged in a starting position in the second housing part, which enables direct and automated contacting of the foil-insulated conductors .
  • the cutting edge receptacles have curved boundary surfaces.
  • boundary surfaces are also preferably designed as sliding surfaces for at least some of the cutting edges.
  • the boundary surfaces which form the sliding surfaces, run in a funnel shape in such a way that two cutting edges are bent towards one another while they slide along the boundary surfaces.
  • This design of the cutting receptacles adapted to the cutting edges enables optimal gas-tight contacting of the foil-insulated conductors with the at least one plug contact during the assembly of the second plug connector part on the first plug connector part. This assembly can in particular also be automated.
  • the cutting edges are arranged one behind the other along a line in such a way that the foil-insulated conductor is cut through at several points during the assembly of the second connector housing part on the first connector housing part.
  • a very advantageous embodiment provides that the cutting edges have different lengths, with a shorter, flexible cutting edge being surrounded by two longer cutting edges, which are spaced apart from one another and whose length is so large that they are at the boundary surfaces a cutting edge holder come to the plant.
  • the second housing part has a plurality of cutting edge receptacles arranged one behind the other in the longitudinal direction of the film-insulated conductors. In this way, the contact area and thus the contact security increases. In addition, the current carrying capacity of the contact made in this way also increases.
  • the cutting edges one behind the other can also be arranged slightly offset from one another perpendicularly to the direction of the conductor track.
  • clamping elements are provided in the first and / or second housing part, which clamp the flexible conductor foil to one another in the region between the foil-insulated conductors in the assembled state of the two housing parts.
  • these clamping elements can be designed in a wide variety of ways and can be arranged in the housing parts.
  • clamping elements are each arranged between conductor tracks of the flexible conductor foil.
  • clamping elements are each assigned rows of cutting edges.
  • a very advantageous aspect of the invention provides that first clamping elements are arranged in the first housing part and second clamping elements interacting with the first clamping elements in the second housing part. In this way, a clamping of the flexible conductor foil is produced to a certain extent automatically during the assembly of the second on the first housing part.
  • first and second clamping elements can be designed very differently.
  • An advantageous embodiment provides that the first clamping elements are clamping teeth with rounded clamping tooth surfaces and that the second clamping elements are openings in the second housing element which are adapted to the clamping teeth.
  • Such a design of the clamping elements enables a particularly effective and easy-to-produce clamping and thus strain relief of the flexible conductor film in the connector housing part.
  • the clamping teeth have a height such that, when the two housing parts are assembled to one another, the flexible conductor foil which can be arranged between the first and the second housing part is deformable in such a way that the deformed flexible conductor foil in the region of the openings slightly into the in the second housing part arranged openings protrudes.
  • a very advantageous embodiment also provides that the second housing part can be latched to the first housing part.
  • Figure 1 is a schematic sectional view of a connector according to the invention for flexible conductor foils before the assembly of the two housing parts.

  • a connector designated as a whole as 10 has a housing which consists of two parts.
  • Plug contacts in the form of spring contacts 105 are arranged in a known manner in a first connector housing part 100.
  • Cutting edges 110, 115 which are arranged in a line one behind the other, are electrically conductively connected to the plug contacts 105, a shorter cutting edge 115 being surrounded by two longer cutting edges 110 in each case.
  • the shorter cutting edges 115 have one Opening 116 through which a flexibility of the cutting edges 115 is realized, which will be discussed in more detail below.
  • a second connector housing part 200 is designed as a separate part.
  • the second connector housing part 200 is designed in such a way that it can be fixed to the first connector housing part 100 by being pushed into a corresponding opening and can be latched to the latter.
  • the second connector housing part 200 has an opening 222 on a side wall 220 which serves to receive a flexible conductor foil 300.
  • An opening 232 is likewise arranged in the opposite side wall 230 and is accessible from the interior of the second plug connector, more precisely from an accommodating space 240 arranged inside and adapted to the conductor foil 300.
  • Both openings 222, 232 thus open into the receiving space 240, which is arranged in the second connector housing part and is adapted to the conductor foil 300, the dimensions of which essentially correspond to the outer dimensions of the conductor foil.
  • the outwardly accessible opening 222, into which the conductor foil is inserted is designed in a funnel shape in such a way that the insertion of the conductor foil 300 into the second connector housing part 200 is facilitated.
  • two cutting edge receptacles 210 are also provided, which can also be referred to as cutting edge receiving spaces.

  • the two longer cutting edges 110, which each surround the shorter cutting edge 115 thus “fit” to a certain extent into the cutting edge receptacles 210, the longer cutting edges 110 coming into contact with the boundary surfaces 211 and 212, respectively.
  • FIG. 1 The state before the final assembly of the second connector housing part 200 on the first connector housing part 100 is shown in FIG. 1.
  • the assembly is now done by the second Connector housing part 200 is pressed in the direction of the first connector housing part 100.

  • the two outer, longer cutting edges 110 surrounding the shorter cutting edge 115 slide on the two boundary surfaces 211, 212 of the cutting edge receptacles 210, whereby they are bent towards each other, as shown in Fig. 2.
  • the outer cutting edges 110 surrounding the shorter inner cutting edge 115 are bent toward one another.
  • the two outer cutting edges 110 cut in the direction of the conductor foil and thus not only increase the contact area and thus increase the contact reliability and also the current carrying capacity, but they are also pretensioned. As a result, pressure is exerted on the contact surfaces and this in turn enables gas-tight contacting.
  • This type of contacting thus enables electrical contacting that is resistant to external influences, in particular mechanical loads, which — and this should be particularly emphasized — can also be automated.
  • the shorter inner cutting edges 115 each have a cavity 116, which enables the cutting edges to be pressed together. This cavity 116 is essentially adapted to the contour of the cutting edges, so that the cutting walls 117 essentially have a constant thickness.
  • a flexible design of the cutting edges 115 is realized through these cavities 116. Flexibei here means that the cutting edges 115 yield elastically under pressure, that is to say can be pressed in the direction of the interior of the cavity 116. This flexibility or resilience of the cutting edges 115, in particular in the case of very thin foil conductors which are produced by electrodeposition of copper and have thicknesses of the conductor tracks or layers in the range from 12 to 70 micrometers, leads to optimal contacting results two-layer systems possible, where the layers can be configured as interconnect or shield layers. The elastic cutting edges 115 achieve a much better contact with very thin copper foils than with non-flexible cutting edges.
  • FIG. 9 shows the flexible conductor film 300 in a completely assembled plug connector, that is to say after the housing part 200 has been fastened to the housing part 100 with the formation of the electrical contacting of film-insulated conductors 310 of the conductor film 300 and fastening of the conductor film 300 in the manner described above.
  • fastening elements in the form of clamping teeth 410 are provided in the first housing part, which have rounded clamping tooth surfaces 415. These clamping teeth 410 are each positioned in the spaces between the film-insulated conductors 310 in order to clamp the flexible conductor film 300 there. As can be seen in FIG. 3, the film-insulated conductors 310 are arranged next to one another in the flexible conductor film 300. Cutting edges 110, 115 are assigned to each foil-insulated conductor 310 in order to contact and clamp the foil-insulated conductor 310. Clamping teeth 410 are assigned to each row of cutting edges 110, 115.
  • the clamping teeth 410 thus lie between the cutting edges 110, 115, for example in the area of the flexible conductor foil 300 in which no foil-insulated conductor 310 is arranged.

  • the second housing part 200 is then moved in the direction of the first housing part 100.
  • the electrical contacting is produced in the manner also described above, in that the cutting edges 110, 115 penetrate the film-insulated conductor tracks 310 and are then bent in the direction of the film-insulated conductors 310, that is to say in the conductor direction.
