Abstract
Description
La présente invention vise un organe de contact électrique femelle destiné à être placé dans un logement d'un boîtier isolant et à recevoir un organe mâle correspondant constitué soit par une simple languette, soit par un circuit imprimé.The present invention relates to a female electrical contact member intended to be placed in a housing of an insulating housing and to receive a corresponding male member constituted either by a simple tongue, or by a printed circuit.
L'invention vise un organe de contact électrique du type formé d'un corps réalisé en une matière bonne conductrice de l'électricité découpé et plié pour présenter une forme sensiblement en U avec à une extrémité des moyens pour sa fixation à un conducteur électrique et à son autre extrémité deux barrettes élastiques de contact destinées à enserrer entre elles un organe mâle de contact, lesdites barrettes élastiques étant protégées par des languettes extérieures.The invention relates to an electrical contact member of the type formed by a body made of a material that is good conductor of electricity, cut and folded to have a substantially U-shape with at one end means for its attachment to an electrical conductor and at its other end, two elastic contact bars intended to enclose between them a male contact member, said elastic bars being protected by external tabs.
Une telle disposition est notamment décrite dans le brevet français 2 621 180.Such an arrangement is described in particular in French patent 2,621,180.
Dans la réalisation décrite dans ce brevet, les barrettes élastiques sont découpées dans les bords libres des languettes extérieures de sorte que lesdites barrettes élastiques sont pliées à l'intérieur des languettes, les bords pliés étant ensuite également repliés pour s'étendre l'un en regard de l'autre.In the embodiment described in this patent, the elastic bars are cut out from the free edges of the outer tabs so that said elastic bars are folded inside the tabs, the folded edges then also being folded over so as to extend one by look of the other.
Une telle disposition présente l'inconvénient d'être relativement chère et de nécessiter un outillage complexe.Such an arrangement has the disadvantage of being relatively expensive and of requiring complex tools.
L'un des buts de la présente invention est de réaliser un organe de contact du type ci-dessus beaucoup moins onéreux à fabriquer.One of the aims of the present invention is to produce a contact member of the above type which is much less expensive to manufacture.
Selon l'invention, l'organe de contact électrique femelle est du type formé d'un corps en une matière bonne conductrice de l'électricité et doué d'une certaine élasticité, ledit corps étant découpé et plié pour affecter la forme d'un U avec une âme et deux ailes, une extrémité dudit corps étant conformée pour présenter des moyens pour sa fixation à un conducteur électrique, tandis qu'à son autre extrémité les ailes du U sont prolongées, d'une part, par deux barrettes de contact destinées à enserrer élastiquement un organe de contact mâle correspondant tel qu'une languette ou circuit imprimé et, d'autre part, par deux languettes s'étendant de part et d'autre des barrettes de contact et destinées à protéger celles-ci, ledit organe étant caractérisé en ce que les languettes sont formées par un prolongement du bord libre de chaque barrette de contact, au voisinage des moyens de fixation à un conducteur électrique, chaque dit prolongement s'étendant sur toute la longueur de la barrette de contact correspondante et étant pliée pour s'étendre du côté de la face externe de ladite barrette correspondante.According to the invention, the female electrical contact member is of the type formed by a body made of a material which is good conductor of electricity and endowed with a certain elasticity, said body being cut and folded to take the form of a U with a core and two wings, one end of said body being shaped to present means for its attachment to an electrical conductor, while at its other end, the wings of the U are extended, on the one hand, by two contact strips intended to elastically enclose a corresponding male contact member such as a tab or printed circuit and, on the other hand, by two tabs extending on both sides of the contact strips and intended to protect them, said member being characterized in that the tongues are formed by an extension of the free edge of each contact strip, in the vicinity of the means of attachment to a electrical conductor, each said extension extending over the entire length of the corresponding contact strip and being folded to extend on the side of the external face of said corresponding strip.
On réalise ainsi un organe de contact électrique femelle qui est peu cher et qui offre une grande sécurité.This produces a female electrical contact member which is inexpensive and which offers great security.
Suivant une autre caractéristique, chaque languette a une dimension légèrement plus grande que la barrette de contact correspondante et présente un rebord, les rebords des deux languettes se faisant vis à vis. Ainsi, les rebords délimitent l'épaisseur maximale de l'organe mâle pouvant être utilisé avec l'organe de contact femelle et les languettes présentent ainsi une bonne résistance mécanique.According to another characteristic, each tab has a dimension slightly larger than the corresponding contact strip and has a flange, the flanges of the two tongues facing each other. Thus, the flanges delimit the maximum thickness of the male member that can be used with the female contact member and the tongues thus have good mechanical strength.
Enfin, suivant une dernière caractéristique, le corps peut comporter entre les barrettes de contact une plaquette repliée pour s'étendre perpendiculairement à l'âme du U. On réalise ainsi d'une manière simple une butée limitant la profondeur d'introduction de l'organe mâle dans l'organe de contact femelle, selon l'invention. Egalement la plaquette peut constituer une butée limitant l'introduction du conducteur entre les moyens de fixation de celui-ci.Finally, according to a last characteristic, the body may include between the contact bars a folded plate to extend perpendicular to the core of the U. A stop is thus produced in a simple manner limiting the depth of introduction of the male organ in the female contact organ, according to the invention. Also the plate can constitute a stop limiting the introduction of the conductor between the means for fixing the latter.
Si les moyens de fixation du conducteur sont noyés dans une matière isolante, la plaquette constitue une barrière pour ladite matière isolante.If the means for fixing the conductor are embedded in an insulating material, the plate constitutes a barrier for said insulating material.
L'invention va maintenant être décrite avec plus de détails en se référant à un mode de réalisation particulier donné à titre d'exemple seulement et représenté aux dessins annexés, dans lesquels :
- Figure 1 est une vue en plan d'un flan découpé pour former l'organe de contact, selon l'invention.
- Figure 2 est une vue en perspective montrant l'organe de contact en cours de pliage.
- Figure 3 est une vue en perspective de l'organe de contact terminé.
- Figure 1 is a plan view of a blank cut to form the contact member according to the invention.
- Figure 2 is a perspective view showing the contact member during folding.
- Figure 3 is a perspective view of the finished contact member.
L'organe de contact représenté aux figures est réalisé dans une bande de métal bonne conductrice de l'électricité et douée d'une certaine élasticité.The contact member shown in the figures is made of a metal strip that is good conductor of electricity and has a certain elasticity.
La bande est découpée pour présenter un corps 1 avec à une extrémité deux pattes 2 destinées à être serties sur un conducteur et au voisinage de ces deux pattes, deux autres pattes 4 destinées à être serties sur une extrémité dénudée dudit conducteur.The strip is cut to present a
Du côté opposé aux pattes 2 le corps 1 est découpé pour présenter deux barrettes 6 et 7 et deux languettes 5 et 8 s'étendant parallèlement entre elles et sensiblement parallèlement à l'axe longitudinal du corps 1.On the side opposite the
Entre les barrettes 6 et 7 est ménagée une large ouverture 9 dans le fond de laquelle est découpée une plaquette 10 destinée à constituer une butée.Between the
La languette 5 comporte à son extrémité libre deux encoches 11 et est séparée de la barrette 6 par une fente 12 dont le fond forme une plus large entaille 13.The
La languette 5, au voisinage de son extrémité libre, est pourvue d'une ouverture 14.The
La languette 8 est séparée de la barrette 7 par une fente 17 dont le fond forme une large entaille 18.The
La languette 8 est percée d'une ouverture 19 au voisinage de son extrémité libre qui comporte deux encoches 20.The
Comme on le voit aux figures 2 et 3, le bord libre de la languette 5 est plié pour former un rebord 5a, tandis que la partie de l'extrémité libre située entre les deux encoches est pliée pour former un rebord 5b et le bord adjacent à la fente 12 est plié pour constituer un rebord 5c.As seen in Figures 2 and 3, the free edge of the
La barrette 6 est destinée à former l'une des barrettes de contact et a une longueur et une largeur correspondant à l'espace délimité par les rebords 5a, 5b et 5c.The
La languette 8 est identique à la languette 5 et comporte des rebords 8a, 8b et 8c.The
La barrette 7 a les mêmes dimensions que la barrette 6 et constitue la barrette de contact.The
Le corps 1 est plié en U pour présenter une âme 1a et deux ailes 1b et 1c, tandis que la plaquette 10 est pliée à 90° de manière à s'étendre dans l'âme du U sensiblement perpendiculairement à celle-ci, les deux barrettes de contact 6 et 7 venant se situer l'une en regard de l'autre en prolongeant les ailes 1b et 1c et les faces en regard desdites barrettes étant connexes de manière que les extrémités libres divergent.The
La languette 5 est pliée le long d'une ligne prolongeant la fente 12 de manière à s'étendre du côté de la face extérieure de la barrette de contact 6.The
La languette 8 est pliée de la même manière que la languette 5 afin de s'étendre du côté de la face externe de la barrette de contact 7.The
On réalise ainsi un organe de contact femelle qui offre une grande sécurité d'utilisation. En effet, lorsque cet organe est introduit dans un boîtier, les barrettes de contact 6 et 7 sont protégées et ne risquent pas d'être déformées. Grâce aux rebords 8a, 8b et 8c et 5a, 5b et 5c, on délimite un espace qui correspond à l'épaisseur à ne pas dépasser pour l'organe de contact mâle à insérer entre les barrettes de contact 6 et 7. L'organe de contact mâle peut être une simple languette ou un circuit imprimé et ledit organe de contact mâle peut aussi bien être introduit entre les barrettes de contact 6 et 7 dans l'axe de l'organe de contact femelle, selon l'invention,que par basculement, pivotement ou autre. Enfin, un tel organe de contact femelle peut facilement être verrouillé dans un logement d'un boîtier, celui-ci comportant des saillies ou butées coopérant avec les ouvertures 14, les rebords 8b, 5b ou les entailles 13 et 18.A female contact member is thus produced which offers great safety in use. In fact, when this member is inserted into a housing, the
Bien entendu, l'invention n'est pas limitée au mode de réalisation qui vient être décrit et représenté. On pourra y apporter de nombreuses modifications sans sortir pour cela du cadre de l'invention.Of course, the invention is not limited to the embodiment which has just been described and shown. Many modifications can be made without departing from the scope of the invention.
