Definitions

  • the invention relates to a connector housing according to the preamble of claim 1.
  • a one-piece plug housing preferably comprises two housing areas one behind the other in the plug-in direction, namely a supporting part which is used to fix the plug housing to a stationary support, such as e.g. serves a housing part or a housing wall, and a housing receiving the plug contacts.
  • the invention has for its object to design a connector housing of the type specified with simple means so that it can automatically adapt to loads when installed.
  • the supporting part and the housing of the connector housing are held in a floating manner despite one-piece design from a solid material and are therefore variable in terms of distance, play-compensating and incompatible with the existing installation situation.
  • the support part and the housing Due to the one-piece production of the connector housing from solid material such as plastic in particular, the support part and the housing have their own stability despite the relative mobility to one another. If in the installation position of the connector housing z. B. by temperature differences or voltages caused changes in the positions or the distance between the walls of the support body carrying the connector housing, these changes are compensated for play by the connector housing without substantial stresses arising or the engagement of the contacts being impaired.
  • the connecting elements With a relative adjustment of the supporting part and the housing from their normal position to each other, the connecting elements are deformed and elastically pretensioned, so that they seek to return the supporting part and the housing to the normal position by prestressing.
  • the problems described at the outset are particularly evident when using plastic for the connector housing and also for the support body, e.g. the protective box receiving the connector housing, because plastic tends to change length when temperature changes and warps relatively easily even under residual stress.
  • the solution according to the invention represents effective protection against expansion or contraction and also protection against overexpansion and protection against overlapping.
  • the dimensioning or arrangement such that, in the installed position, the housing of the plug housing is shifted slightly from its normal position to the side facing away from the supporting part and thus in Direction is biased to the mating connector, which ensures a secure contact of the contact elements and rattling noises of the connector housing bracket are avoided.
  • connection webs The arrangement and flexibility of the connecting elements formed by connecting webs is decisive for the mobility of the supporting part and the housing relative to one another.
  • a relative movement of the housing and the support part towards and away from each other and a tilting of these parts to each other is not possible or blocked.
  • a lateral movement is blocked.
  • rotation of the support member and the housing relative to each other is blocked.
  • the designated with 1 connector housing made of solid plastic comprises a substantially rectangular support frame 2 and a cuboid contact housing or housing 3, which are connected in one piece or in one piece only by flexible or flexible connecting arms 4.
  • the U Shaped support frame 2 has a transverse to the central axis 5 of the connector housing 1 flange part 6 with an inner, front open recess 7 through which not shown contacts or mating contacts or in the present case electrical connection lines such as cables can extend.
  • the housing 3 is open at the front.
  • the housing 3 is box-shaped with two side walls 11, 12, a rear wall 13 and a bottom wall 15 on its underside facing away from the supporting frame 2.
  • the bottom wall 15 connects the side walls 11, 12 and the rear wall 13.
  • the side walls 11 to 13 are not connected to one another, so that the housing 3 is also open here.
  • the support frame 2 and the surrounding housing 3 have a rectangular shape in their cross sections extending transversely to the central axis 5, as a result of which narrow sides and broad sides result for the plug housing 1.
  • the length L and width B of the support frame 2 is larger than the associated length l and width b of the surrounding housing 3, so that the flange part 6 protrudes laterally over its entire circumference from the narrow and broad sides of the surrounding housing 3.
  • Each connecting arm 4 is formed by legs 16, 17, each forming an angle, in the form of strip-shaped webs, the vertical ones extending from the supporting frame 2
  • Legs 16 are arranged on the outer edge of the support frame 2, extend parallel to one another and to the broad sides of the support frame 2 and axially parallel to the central axis 5, while the legs 17 connect to the legs 16 to form an inner obtuse angle w of approximately 110 ° and extend obliquely to the side walls 11, 12 of the surrounding housing 3.
  • the legs 16, 17 are flat webs, but they can also be rounded, or the connecting arms 4 can also be rounded as a whole by arcuate webs.
  • the distance between the adjacent connecting arms 4 on each broad side is designated by c, the outer connecting arms 4 terminating with the front and rear of the surrounding housing 3.
  • the width d of the connecting arms 4 thus corresponds to only a fraction of the associated length l of the broad side of the surrounding housing 3.
  • the side walls 11, 12 extend to the supporting frame 2 by the dimension denoted by e.
  • the side wall legs 19 which project outward from the side walls 11, 13.
  • These side wall legs 19 are engaged at a distance f from supporting frame transverse legs 21 which project inwardly from supporting frame longitudinal legs 22 extending laterally at a distance g from the side wall legs 19, the supporting frame longitudinal legs 22 extending from the supporting frame 2.
  • the distance h of the support frame cross leg 21 from the support frame 2 is larger than the sum of the thickness i of the side wall legs 19 and the distance f, so that there is also between the side wall legs 19 and the support frame 2 gives a distance j.
  • slots 23, 23.1 formed by grooves or shoulders on the frame web 8 and by the flange part 6 are provided, which serve to hold the connector housing 1.
  • Such a holder can be formed by engaging in the slots 23 edges of an opening of a housing wall, not shown.
  • An inner housing in the form of a contact holder rail 24 can be positioned in the surrounding housing 3 by means of suitable form-fitting mounting elements.
  • the contact holder rail 24 can be inserted through the opening 25 on the front side.
  • An L-shaped mounting web 26 and a latch 27 serve as mounting element.
  • the mounting web 26 has at its free end a cross leg 28 with which it can be inserted into a correspondingly dimensioned longitudinal groove 29 (FIG. 1) of the contact holder rail 24.
  • a latching lug 30 is formed on a latching arm 31 which extends transversely to the rear wall 12 and extends horizontally and which starts in one piece from a wall part 33 cut free on the upper side and laterally by a cutout 32.
  • the latching lug 30 is attached in such a position that it engages in the inserted position of the contact holder rail 24 due to the elasticity of the wall part 33 in a locking recess on the contact holder rail 24 and thus secures the latter in its functional position.
  • the latching lug 30 is bent out, for example, by means of inclined surfaces.
  • vertical square contact chambers 34 are provided for contact elements, not shown, in two longitudinal rows. At the bottom, the contact chambers 34 are delimited by shoulders 35, which are followed by rail plug openings 36 which are tapered in cross section and which are aligned with housing plug openings 37 in two rows in the bottom wall 14.
  • the right row of contact elements in FIG. 1 is limited against an upward movement by the cross leg 28, which projects into this row of contact chambers 34 and into corresponding transverse recesses in the contact elements.
  • the same holder for the left row of contact elements is formed by a horizontal retaining web 38 projecting from the left side wall 11, which engages in a horizontal lateral groove 39 in the contact holder rail 24 and also from the left in the left row of contact chambers 34 and in corresponding transverse recesses therein inserted contact elements protrudes.
  • the housing plug openings 37 are chamfered on the outside.
  • the support frame 2 and the surrounding housing 3 are movable relative to one another by bending the connecting arms 4.
  • the support frame 2 and the surrounding housing 3 are held to one another more or less elastically, the starting position being repeatedly assumed due to the elasticity.
  • the surrounding housing 3 is not only optional with respect to the latter, along the central axis 5 but also laterally movable, rotatable and tiltable, so that there is all-round mobility between the support frame 2 and the surrounding housing 3.
  • the legs 17 extending transversely to the central axis 5 bend out, while in the case of lateral movements and rotary movements about the axis 5 of the surrounding housing 3, essentially only the legs extending along the central axis 5 16 turn out.
  • the mobility is determined by the distances f, g, j, and it can thus be determined arbitrarily in terms of construction.
  • the distance f between the side wall legs 19 and the support frame cross legs 21 is dimensioned smaller than the distance j between the side wall legs 19 and the support frame 2, so that in each case from the starting position the reduction in the height A of the support frame 2 and surrounding housing 3 is larger than the magnification.
  • the connector housing 1 Due to the telescopic nature of the connector housing 1, it can optionally be adapted in a plug-in connection of its surrounding housing 3 with a further connector housing to the respective distance to predetermined distances or positions of supporting bodies for the supporting part 2 and the surrounding housing 3, as has already been described.
  • the connector housing 1 can be made in one piece from preferably plastic or metal, particularly by means of injection molding or die-casting, in particular with regard to its support frame 2, surrounding housing 3 and its connecting arms 4.
