Definitions
- the present invention relates to an electrical connector for flexible Flat cable or flexible printed circuit boards according to the preamble of claim 1.
- Typical electrical connectors for flexible flat cables (FFC) or flexible printed circuit boards (FPC) have an insulating or dielectric housing that has an insertion opening for defines the film with the conductor tracks embedded in it.
- a variety of foil contacts mounted in the housing which are essentially are arranged parallel to each other. Contact zones of these foil contacts are in the insertion opening so that they contact conductive areas of the foil cable can.
- the housing often also includes a pressure bracket, which by one "Open” state in which the film can be inserted into the insertion opening in one "Closed” state can be moved using the film and its connectors are pressed against the contact areas of the foil contacts.
- European patent EP 0 696 090 B1 describes an electrical connector for flexible circuit boards on another circuit board, such as a printed circuit board PCB, is mounted.
- the connector contains a housing with an insertion opening and a plurality of contact elements so arranged in the housing are that spring contact parts of the contact elements protrude into the insertion opening.
- To the A contact area is provided for contact elements.
- a pressure bracket that is on the Support area is rotatable from an open position to a pressure position has one Pressure edge, which, when the pressure bracket is moved into the pressure position, in the opposite direction to the insertion direction of the film moves and the film against presses the spring contact parts. This way the electrical connections made between the film and the contact elements.
- a connector for printed circuit boards, especially for flexible ones like FPC or FFC, is the subject of European patent application EP 0 926 778 A2.
- the connector has an insulating housing with a recess open at the top and base contacts, which are arranged in the housing at regular intervals and each have a resilient beam and an integrally connected arm.
- Each bar has a conductive protrusion that protrudes into the recess and everyone Arm that extends into the recess along the top of the housing has a protrusion opposite pivotable end.
- An insulated pressure cover that engages in the pivotable ends, is between a pressure position near the projections and an open position rotatable away from the protrusions.
- the Swiveling ends lock the cover and press the flexible circuit board against the resilient beams.
- the cover has cover contacts that can be rotated in the swiveling ends engage and correspond to the base contacts, so that the swivel ends, the cover contacts and the flexible printed circuit closed cover are electrically contacted.
- the connector has a dielectric Housing with an insertion opening and a variety of electrical connections that in mounted on the housing and arranged along the insertion opening.
- the connections have contact areas to contact the flat circuit traces.
- a pressure bracket is movably mounted on the housing and changes its position between an open position in which the film can be inserted and one closed position, in which the film and its conductor tracks against the contact areas of the connections are pressed. Only some of the connections have retention connections with gripping elements that grip the flat circuit and fix it when the pressure bracket is open. Other connections do not contain any retention elements, so that the film can be inserted without force.
- U.S. Patent 4,082,402 discloses a connector for a Crimp connection when connecting flexible conductor tracks.
- the connection terminal is designed so that it penetrates the insulating jacket of the flexible conductor track and circling the trace to include both mechanical and electrical To create a connection.
- the connection terminal has two opposite one another Pairs of sharp teeth that face each other after penetrating the slide bent so that they grip around the conductor track and make electrical contact.
- a electrical connector for flexible ribbon cable which a variety of such terminals is used, that is, from the sharp teeth of the connection terminals Both the electrical contacting and the strain relief of the flexible film are guaranteed.
- the object of the present invention is therefore to provide an electrical connector for a Specify film with embedded conductor tracks, which ensures reliable contact guaranteed and also a cheap manufacture and simplified assembly of the Components allowed.
- An essential advantage of the electrical connector according to the invention is that that due to the special geometry of the foil contact, the normal contact force in comparison large areas is adjustable. Because the spring steel has relatively large deflections the contact arms allows different film thicknesses with the same Connector to be contacted. Since the direction is essentially perpendicular to the film surface Compressive force acting on the actuation area due to its transmission about the approximately U-shaped bent end portion of the first contact arm in the Contact zone is broken down into a normal and a parallel component, rubs when pressed of the foil contact, the contact zone of the first contact arm on the conductor track the film and thus removes any residues that impair electrical contact. Furthermore, the realization of the foil contacts from a stamped or bent Spring plate is a particularly inexpensive method of manufacture. In addition In the configuration according to the invention, the film contact forms a double spring which an open gap size and a constant spring characteristic enables.
- the foil contacts have openings in which snaps into the housing with a suitable safety catch. hereby becomes a fully automatic assembly of the housing with the foil contacts allows.
- the subdivision of the first contact arm via an elongated hole into two contact webs is reduced the insertion forces that occur. Low insertion forces are required to prevent waves or avoid tilting the film. This also enables realization good contact with the conductor tracks of the film.
- connection zone is a solder connection trained so that the electrical connector according to the invention for applications in to which it has to be soldered.
- the connector can be connected to various connection options, such as Action pin 90 ° and 180 °, SMD connection etc. can be adapted.
- connection of the connector pin with the insertion funnel via a laser welding spot or mechanical non-positive locking mechanisms can prevent the Plug pin is inadvertently moved axially.
- the above task is also accomplished by an electrical connector with the Features of claim 8 solved.
- the main advantage of this invention electrical connector can be seen in the fact that the strain relief of the foil in one work step by pressing the film contacts by turning the pressure bracket is realized. In addition to the required assembly time, the number can also be increased the components are kept low.
- the pressure bracket has at least one first opening, into which a corresponding locking lug of the housing engages and the The pressure bracket is fixed in a pre-locking position in which the film contacts are open. In this way it can be ensured that the electrical connector in the delivery state are ready for installation immediately.
- the configuration of the support ribs stabilizing the housing is particularly advantageous as insertion aids for the film, because in this way the film is guided properly in the housing and thus a secure and confusion-free contact is ensured becomes.
- This connector according to the invention offers the advantage of an economically particularly favorable and mechanically safe contact.
- the actuation of the film contacts by a slide offers the advantage that the film contacts can be operated by a lateral movement and thus this Manufacturing step is easier to automate.
- the slide on the plug part is replaced by a Locking hook secured so that it is ensured that the connector part in the delivery condition is already ready for installation.
- One provides that the first latching hook that secures the slider in a pre-latched position is released by a pressure bar on the collar part, it is ensured that the film contacts only be actuated when the film is optimally positioned. To this In this way, incorrect contact can be largely avoided.
- the slide has a second one Snap hook on which can be snapped into a recess on the housing. This will make it a safe one and not inadvertently detachable contacting of the film guaranteed.
