Description
La présente invention concerne un dispositif permettant de positionner et de fixer d'une part une embase pour un jack audio-stéréo sur le circuit imprimé d'un téléphone mobile et d'autre part de permettre un contact électrique avec une partie de contact de ce jack.The present invention relates to a device allowing to position and fix on the one hand a socket for an audio-stereo jack on the printed circuit of a mobile phone and secondly to allow a electrical contact with a contact part of this jack.
Face à une demande de miniaturisation accrue des téléphones mobiles, un problème technique rencontré de plus en plus couramment est lié à la difficulté de réaliser, dans un espace de plus en plus réduit, un ensemble de fonctions indépendantes pour lesquelles sont utilisés habituellement des dispositifs indépendants.Faced with a demand for increased miniaturization of mobile phones, a technical problem encountered with more and more commonly is linked to the difficulty of realize, in an increasingly reduced space, a set of independent functions for which are usually used independent devices.
Un tel problème se pose par exemple lorsqu'on souhaite relier un jack audio-stéréo au circuit imprimé, d'un téléphone mobile. En effet, ce branchement nécessite d'une part, la fixation et le positionnement corrects de l'embase du jack sur le circuit imprimé, et d'autre part, la mise à la masse dudit circuit de ce jack.Such a problem arises for example when wish to connect an audio-stereo jack to the printed circuit, of a mobile phone. Indeed, this connection requires on the one hand, fixing and positioning correct from the jack base on the printed circuit, and secondly, the grounding of said circuit of this jack.
Dans les téléphones mobiles connus les fonctions précitées sont réalisées par des moyens indépendants qui occupent chacun un emplacement dans le téléphone mobile. Ceci a pour effet de limiter les possibilités de miniaturisation de ce dernier, d'augmenter le nombre de pièces à monter et par conséquent le prix.In known mobile phones the functions above are carried out by independent means which each occupy a space in the mobile phone. This has the effect of limiting the possibilities of miniaturization of the latter, to increase the number of parts to mount and therefore the price.
Le but de l'invention est de réaliser un dispositif qui permet d'assurer simultanément les deux fonctions précitées.The object of the invention is to provide a device that allows both aforementioned functions.
Pour atteindre ce but, le dispositif selon l'invention est caractérisé en ce qu'il consiste en un élément découpé dans une feuille métallique et plié en forme de U, ce U étant engagé dans une gorge s'étendant sur la face supérieure du corps isolant de l'embase du jack et sur chacun des deux côtés de ce corps, les deux ailes dudit U comportant chacune à son extrémité une patte pliée à angle droit vers l'extérieur et destinée à être fixée sur le circuit imprimé, la base du U dudit élément portant une lame en contact élastique avec une partie du contact du jack.To achieve this goal, the device according to the invention is characterized in that it consists of a element cut from a metal sheet and folded in U-shaped, this U being engaged in a groove extending on the upper face of the insulating body of the base of the jack and on each of the two sides of this body, both wings of said U each having at its end a tab folded at right angles outwards and intended for be fixed on the printed circuit, the base of the U of said element carrying a blade in elastic contact with a part of the jack contact.
L'élément découpé et plié en U assure ainsi simultanément les fonctions de positionnement et de fixation précises de l'embase du jack sur le circuit imprimé et la fonction de contact avec une partie de contact par exemple de masse de ce jack. Une réduction de l'encombrement est également obtenue grâce à l'engagement de l'élément plié en U dans la gorge du corps isolant du jack.The cut and folded U-shaped element thus ensures simultaneously the positioning and precise fixing of the jack base on the circuit printed and contact function with part of eg ground contact of this jack. A discount space is also obtained thanks to the engagement of the U-shaped element in the groove of the insulating body of the jack.
D'autres caractéristiques et avantages de l'invention ressortiront de la description qui va suivre, prise à titre d'exemple non limitatif, en référence à la figure annexée qui représente une vue en perspective d'un dispositif conforme à l'invention.Other features and benefits of the invention will emerge from the description which goes follow, taken by way of nonlimiting example, in reference to the appended figure which represents a view in perspective of a device according to the invention.
La figure 1 représente un dispositif permettant
de positionner et de fixer d'une part une embase pour un
jack 1 audio-stéréo sur le circuit imprimé d'un
téléphone mobile et d'autre part permettant un contact
électrique avec une partie de contact 2 de ce jack.Figure 1 shows a device for
to position and fix on the one hand a base for a
audio stereo jack 1 on the printed circuit board
mobile phone and secondly allowing contact
electric with a
Conformément à l'invention, ce dispositif
consiste en un élément 3 découpé dans une feuille
métallique est plié en forme de U. Ce U est engagé dans
une gorge 4 s'étendant sur la face supérieure 5 du corps
isolant de l'embase du jack 1 et sur chacun des deux
côtés 6 de ce corps. Les deux ailes 7 dudit U comportent
chacune à son extrémité une patte 8 pliée à angle droit
vers l'extérieur et destinée à être fixée sur le circuit
imprimé par soudage ou par des vis. La base 9 du U de
l'élément 3 porte une lame 10 en contact élastique avec
la partie de contact 2 du jack. According to the invention, this device
consists of an
La profondeur de la gorge 4 est égale à
l'épaisseur de la feuille dans laquelle est découpé
l'élément 3 plié en U. De ce fait, la surface extérieure
de cet élément 3 affleure la surface extérieure du corps
isolant de l'embase du jack 1.The depth of the
Par ailleurs, chaque aile 7 de l'élément 3 plié
en U comporte une ouverture 11 destinée à être
encliquetée sur un bec d'encliquetage 12 en saillie dans
la gorge 4, sur chaque côté du corps isolant du jack.Furthermore, each
La figure 1 montre d'autre part que la lame 10
s'étend perpendiculairement à l'un 13 des bords de la
base 9 de l'élément 3 plié en U.Figure 1 shows on the other hand that the
De plus, cette lame 10 est pliée vers le bas et
forme un angle α avec le plan P de la base 9 de
l'élément 3 plié en U.In addition, this
En outre, la lame 10 est engagée dans une gorge
14 ménagée sur la surface supérieure du corps isolant du
jack 1.In addition, the
Comme montré également par la figure 1,
l'extrémité de la lame 10 comporte une zone recourbée 15
destinée à venir en contact élastique avec la partie de
contact de masse 2 du jack.As also shown in Figure 1,
the end of the
Les principaux avantages du dispositif que l'on vient de décrire sont les suivants :
- l'élément 3 plié en U grâce à son engagement
dans la
gorge 4 et à sespattes 8 permet un positionnement et une fixation précises de cet élément au circuit imprimé du téléphone mobile ; - la lame flexible 10 réalisée d'une seule pièce
avec l'élément 3 permet d'établir un contact avec la
partie de
contact 2 du jack ; - grâce à l'engagement de l'élément 3, y compris
de sa
lame 10 dans des gorges, l'encombrement de l'ensemble peut être réduit à quelques mm (le jack lui-même ayant un diamètre de 2,5 mm).
- the
element 3 folded into a U thanks to its engagement in thegroove 4 and to itslegs 8 allows precise positioning and fixing of this element to the printed circuit of the mobile phone; - the
flexible blade 10 made in one piece with theelement 3 makes it possible to establish contact with thecontact part 2 of the jack; - thanks to the engagement of the
element 3, including itsblade 10 in grooves, the size of the assembly can be reduced to a few mm (the jack itself having a diameter of 2.5 mm).
Bien entendu l'invention n'est pas limitée à l'exemple de réalisation que l'on vient de décrire et on peut lui apporter de nombreuses modifications sans sortir du cadre de l'invention.Of course, the invention is not limited to the example of realization which we have just described and we can make many changes to it without depart from the scope of the invention.
