Der Erfindung liegt die Aufgabe zugrunde, bei einem Kabelstecker der eingangs genannten Art in einfacher Weise eine kostengünstige Masseverbindung zu ermöglichen.The invention has for its object in a cable connector of the type mentioned in a simple manner To enable inexpensive ground connection.

Diese Aufgabe wird bei einem Kabelstecker der eingangs genannten Art gemäß der Erfindung dadurch gelost, daß die Steckkontaktmittel des Leistenkörpers im Leitungsanschlußbereich mit Schneidklemmen ausgebildet sind, die von einer Außenseite des Leistenkörpers zugänglich sind und daß die abgewinkelten Kontaktlappen der Masseplatte so ausgebildet und im Bereich von Schneidklemmen des Leistenkörpers angeordnet sind, daß sie beim Schließen der Steckergehäuseteile mit zugeordneten Schneidklemmen kontaktierbar sind. This task is performed with a cable connector of the type mentioned Kind solved according to the invention in that the Plug contact means of the strip body in the line connection area are formed with insulation piercing from an outside of the last body are accessible and that the angled Contact tabs of the ground plate designed and im Arranged area of insulation displacement clamps of the last body are that they are associated with when closing the connector housing parts Insulation displacement contacts are contactable.

Bei einem derartigen Kabelstecker ist der die Steckkontaktmittel enthaltende Leistenkörper mit Schneidklemmen ausgebildet und die Masseplatte an bestimmten Stellen mit Kontaktlappen versehen, welche beim Schließen der beiden Gehäuseteile in einige der Schneidklemmen gedrückt und dort kontaktiert werden. Damit werden einige der Steckkontaktmittel durch eine Verbindung zwischen ihren Schneidklemmen mit den Kontaktlappen als Massekontakte nutzbar, während die übrigen Steckkontaktmittel, welche im Leitungsanschlußbereich ebenfalls mit solchen Schneidklemmen ausgebildet sind, zum Anschluß von Kabelsignaladern dienen. Beim Stecken des Kabelsteckers z. B. in einen Rückwand- Gegenstecker wird also gleichzeitig mit der Signalübertragung die Masseführung jeweils über gleichartige Kontakte des Kabelsteckers bzw. des Rückwand- Gegensteckers realisiert. Der wesentliche Vorteil des erfindungsgemäßen Kabelsteckers liegt somit darin, daß in einfacher und kostengünstiger Weise eine Masseverbindung ermöglicht wird, da spezielle Massekontakte im Kabelstecker entfallen, für die Signalführung und die Masseführung sowohl auf der Kabelsteckerseite als auch auf der Gegenseite jeweils gleichartige Steckkontaktmittel verwendet werden können, diese auf der Kabelsteckerseite einheitlich mit Standard- Schneidklemmen versehen werden können und die Verbindung der Kontaktlappen der Masseplatte mit den Schneidklemmen einfach während des Verschließens der Kabelstecker- Gehäuseteile hergestellt wird, das heißt also ohne zusätzlichen Arbeitsvorgang.In the case of such a cable plug, this is the plug contact means Containing last body formed with insulation displacement clamps and the ground plate at certain points with contact tabs provided which when closing the two housing parts pressed into some of the insulation displacement terminals and contacted there become. This means that some of the plug contact means are replaced by a Connection between their insulation displacement terminals with the contact tabs usable as ground contacts, while the other plug contact means, which also in the line connection area such insulation displacement terminals are designed for connecting cable signal wires to serve. When plugging the cable connector z. B. in a rear wall mating connector is therefore also with the signal transmission, the ground control in each case via similar Contacts of the cable connector or the rear wall mating connector realized.

Der Kabelstecker nach Figur 1 besitzt ein zweiteiliges Steckergehäuse aus Kunststoff, welches hier von zwei Gehäusehälften, nämlich einem unterem Gehäuseteil 1 und oberen Gehäuseteil 2 gebildet wird. Das Steckergehäuse enthält einen Leistenkörper 3 aus Kunststoff, der zwei Reihen von zur Steckseite hin offenen Kontaktkammern 4 aufweist. In diese Kontaktkammern sind Steckkontaktmittel eingesetzt, welche von üblichen und deshalb hier nicht näher dargestellten Kontaktfedern gebildet sind, die in ebenfalls üblicher und seit langem bekannter Weise in ihrem Leitungsanschlußbereich mit Standard-Schneidklemmen versehen sind. An zwei einander gegenüberliegenden Außenflächen ist der Leistenkörper 3 im Leitungsanschlußbereich seiner Steckkontaktmittel, also im Bereich der Schneidklemmen, mit nach außen offenen und zueinander parallelen Schlitzen 5 versehen, was auf Grund der Darstellungsform in Figur 1 nur an der dem Betrachter zugewandten oberen Außenfläche 6 des Leistenkörpers 3 zu sehen ist. Dies bedeutet, daß an die Schneidklemmen der Steckkontaktmittel von außen her einzelne isolierte Adern eines vieladrigen, üblichen und deshalb ebenfalls nicht dargestellten Kabels mit Kabelschirm abisolierfrei angeschlagen werden können. Die nähere Anordnung einer Schneidklemme in einem als U-förmigen Kanal ausgebildeten Schlitz 5 eines Leistenkörpers 3 ist in Figur 2 mit einer Schneidklemme 7 zu sehen.The cable connector according to Figure 1 has a two-part Connector housing made of plastic, which here consists of two housing halves, namely a lower housing part 1 and an upper housing part 2 is formed. The connector housing contains a strip body 3 made of plastic, the two rows from to the mating side has open contact chambers 4. In these contact chambers are plug contact means used by usual and therefore not shown here contact springs are formed, which is also common and has long been in a known manner in their line connection area Standard insulation displacement clamps are provided. On two opposite one another External surfaces is the last body 3 in Line connection area of its plug contact means, so in Area of the insulation displacement clamps, with outward and towards each other parallel slots 5 provided what due to the form of presentation in Figure 1 only on the viewer facing to see the upper outer surface 6 of the last body 3 is. This means that at the insulation displacement terminals of the plug contact means from the outside individual insulated wires one multi-core, usual and therefore also not shown Cable with cable shield stripped without stripping can. The closer arrangement of a cutting clamp in a than U-shaped channel formed slot 5 of a strip body 3 can be seen in FIG. 2 with an insulation displacement clamp 7.

Außer dem Leistenkörper 3 ist in dem Steckergehäuse, hier in dem unterem Gehäuseteil 1, eine Masseplatte 8 aus Blech vorgesehen, die durch eigene Formelemente, wie z. B. Randausnehmungen 9,10, ein Loch 11 und eine an die innere Schrägfläche 12 des Gehäuseteiles 1 angepaßte Schrägseite 13 sowie durch Wandvorsprünge 14,15, einen Turm 16 am Boden des Gehäuseteiles 1 und die oben erwähnte Schrägfläche 12 des Gehäuseteiles 1 in Bezug auf den Leistenkörper 3 und dessen Schneidklemmen 7 lagerichtig in dem unteren Gehäuseteil 1 fixierbar ist.In addition to the strip body 3 is in the connector housing, here in the lower housing part 1, a mass plate 8 made of sheet metal is provided, which by its own form elements, such as. B. edge recesses 9,10, a hole 11 and one on the inner inclined surface 12 of the housing part 1 adapted inclined side 13 and through wall projections 14, 15, a tower 16 at the bottom of the housing part 1 and the above-mentioned inclined surface 12 of the housing part 1 in relation to the last body 3 and its insulation displacement terminals 7 can be fixed in the correct position in the lower housing part 1 is.

Zur Bildung des Massebezugspotentials ist die Masseplatte 8 an der Schrägseite 13 mit einem angewinkelten, halbkreisförmigen Klemmring 17 ausgebildet, der zusammen mit einer anschraubbaren Klemmschelle 18 einen Klemmanschluß für das Schirmgeflecht des Kabels bildet. Ferner ist die Masseplatte 8 an einer weiteren Seite, hier an der der Steckseite des Kabelsteckers zugewandten Längsseite 19, mit Kontaktlappen 20,21,22 versehen, die durch Trennschnitte an der Längsseite gebildet und in Richtung auf den Leistenkörper 3 und dessen Schneidklemmen 7 hochgebogen sind. Hier sind drei Kontaktlappen 20, 21,22 vorgesehen und an den Enden der Längsseite 19 sowie etwa in deren Mitte angeordnet. In jedem Fall und unabhängig von der Anzahl der Kontaktlappen sind diese jeweils in einem Bereich der Masseplatte 8, der den von außen zugänglichen, also offenen Schneidklemmen 7 des Leistenkörpers 3 gegenüberliegt, angeordnet, was durch die lagerichtige Fixierung der Masseplatte 8 gewährleistet wird. Die Kontaktlappen 20,21,22 sind somit derart ausgebildet und angeordnet, daß sie beim Schließen der Gehäuseteile 1 und 2 in drei gegenüberliegende Schneidklemmen 7 des Leistenkörpers 3 gedrückt und dort kontaktiert werden. Zweckmäßigerweise entspricht- wie in Figur 2 zu sehen ist- die Dicke der Kontaktlappen 20,21 und 22 etwa der Breite des Schlitzes der Schneidklemmen 7. Die restlichen Schneidklemmen, die ebenfalls aus Standard- Schneidklemmen bestehen, dienen zum Anschluß von Kabelsignaladern. Beim Stecken eines Kabelsteckers z. B. in einen Rückwand- Gegenstecker wird also gleichzeitig der Signalkontakt und der Massekontakt über gleichartige Gegenkontaktsteckmittel des Rückwand-Gegensteckers realisiert.The ground plate 8 is used to form the ground reference potential on the inclined side 13 with an angled, semicircular Clamping ring 17 formed together with a screw-on clamp 18 a clamp connection for that Braid of the cable forms. Furthermore, the ground plate 8 on another side, here on the plug-in side of the Cable connector facing long side 19, with contact tabs 20,21,22 provided by separating cuts on the long side formed and towards the groin body 3 and its Insulation clips 7 are bent up. Here are three contact tabs 20, 21, 22 provided and at the ends of the long side 19 and arranged approximately in the middle. In any case and they are independent of the number of contact tabs in an area of the ground plate 8 which is the outside accessible, ie open insulation displacement clamps 7 of the last body 3 lies opposite, which is due to the correct position Fixation of the ground plate 8 is ensured. The contact tabs 20, 21, 22 are thus designed and arranged in such a way that when closing the housing parts 1 and 2 in three opposite Insulation displacement clamps 7 of the strip body 3 are pressed and be contacted there. The thickness of the contact tabs expediently corresponds - as can be seen in FIG. 2 20, 21 and 22 approximately the width of the slot of the Insulation displacement clamps 7. The remaining insulation displacement clamps, also consist of standard insulation displacement connectors are used for connection of cable signal wires. When plugging in a cable connector e.g. B. in a rear wall mating connector is thus simultaneously the signal contact and the ground contact via the same mating connector of the rear wall mating connector.

Bei einem derartigen Kabelstecker können in vorteilhafter Weise also spezielle Massekontakte entfallen, wobei die Signalführung und die Masseverbindung ohne zusätzlichen Arbeitsvorgang einfach während des Verschließens der Gehäuseteile des Kabelsteckers hergestellt wird.With such a cable connector can be advantageous So special ground contacts are omitted, the Signal routing and the ground connection without additional Work simply while closing the Housing parts of the cable connector is manufactured.
