Description

Die Erfindung betrifft ein Verfahren zur Herstellung einer elektrischen Flachleiter-Bandleitung, mit welchem auf den beiden einander gegenüber liegenden Seiten eines bandförmigen Trägers aus Isoliermaterial flache elektrische Leiter mit im wesentlichen rechteckigem Querschnitt parallel und mit Abstand zueinander angeordnet werden und mit welchem auf den freien Seiten der Leiter jeweils eine für alle Leiter gemeinsame, abdeckende Folie aus Isoliermaterial angebracht wird (WO 01/62551 A1).The invention relates to a method for producing a flat electrical ribbon cable, with which on the two opposite sides of a band-shaped carrier made of insulating flat electrical conductor with a substantially rectangular cross-section are arranged parallel to and spaced from each other and with which on the free sides of the Head is in each case a common for all conductors, covering film of insulating material is applied (WO 01/62551 A1).

Flachleiter-Bandleitungen- im folgenden kurz "FL-BL genannt - werden wegen ihrer flachen Bauweise mit Vorteil in der Verdrahtungstechnik eingesetzt. Sie dienen beispielsweise als Verbindungsleitungen für gedruckte Schaltungen, als Ersatz für Kabelbäume in elektrischen Geräten und in Personenkraftwagen und insbesondere wegen ihrer guten Biegbarkeit für Verdrahtungen im allgemeinen dort, wo wenig Platz vorhanden ist. Ein Vorteil der FL-BL liegt auch in der festen Einbettung der Leiter in der Isolierung, so daß sie kaum zu beschädigen sind, insbesondere nicht durch Knicken.Because of their flat design, flat-conductor ribbon cables - referred to below as "FL-BL" - are advantageously used in wiring technology, for example as connection lines for printed circuits, as a replacement for wiring harnesses in electrical appliances and in passenger cars, and in particular because of their good bendability for wiring in general, where there is little space.An advantage of FL-BL is also in the solid embedding of the conductors in the insulation, so that they are hardly damaged, especially not by kinking.

Die Breite einer FL-BL hängt im wesentlichen von der Anzahl ihrer Leiter ab. Wenn mehr Leiter benötigt werden als eine maximal vorgegebene Breite der FL-BL zuläßt, dann muß dieselbe im Einsatzfall beispielsweise gefaltet werden oder es können zwei oder mehr getrennte FL-BL nebeneinander eingesetzt werden. Der Aufwand ist in beiden Fällen hoch und es ergeben sich Probleme beim Anschließen von Kontaktelementen an die Leiter.The width of a FL-BL depends essentially on the number of its conductors. If more conductors are required than a maximum predetermined width of the FL-BL permits, then it must be folded in the application, for example, or two or more separate FL-BL can be used side by side. The effort is high in both cases and there are problems when connecting contact elements to the ladder.

Aus der eingangs erwähnten WO 01/62551 A1 ist eine FL-BL bekannt, die bei relativ geringer Breite eine erhöhte Anzahl von Leitern hat. Es wird dazu eine beidseitig mit Leiterbahnen in Form von Metalldünnschichten bedruckte Leiterkarte eingesetzt. Die Leiterbahnen werden in bekannter Dünnschichttechnik beispielsweise durch Photolithograhie und Ätzen erzeugt. Sie sind entsprechend dünn und mechanisch empfindlich. Für einen größeren elektrisch leitenden Querschnitt müssen die Leiterbahnen verbreitert werden. Das führt zu einer entsprechenden Verbreiterung der FL-BL selbst oder zu einer verminderten Leiterzahl. Die Leiterbahnen sind in der fertigen FL-BL jeweils durch Isolierfolien abgedeckt. Zum Anschließen von Kontaktelementen an die dünnen Leiter sind an den Enden der FL-BL jeweils Verstärkungen angebracht, die aus mehreren Schichten bestehen. Die Leiter der FL-BL und an dieselben anzuschließende Kontaktelemente sind in Montageposition in den Verstärkungen eingeklemmt.From the aforementioned WO 01/62551 A1 a FL-BL is known, which has a relatively small width an increased number of conductors. For this purpose, a printed circuit board printed on both sides with printed conductors in the form of thin metal layers is used. The printed conductors are produced in known thin-film technology, for example by photolithography and etching. They are correspondingly thin and mechanically sensitive. For a larger electrically conductive cross section, the conductor tracks must be widened. This leads to a corresponding broadening of the FL-BL itself or to a reduced number of conductors. The tracks are each covered in the finished FL-BL by insulating films. In order to connect contact elements to the thin conductors, reinforcements which consist of several layers are respectively attached to the ends of the FL-BL. The conductors of the FL-BL and contact elements to be connected to them are clamped in mounting position in the reinforcements.

Der Erfindung liegt die Aufgabe zugrunde, das eingangs geschilderte Verfahren so zu gestalten, daß eine FL-BL mit mechanisch stabilen Leitern herstellbar ist, an welche auf einfache Weise Kontaktelemente anschließbar sind.The invention has for its object to make the initially described method so that a FL-BL can be produced with mechanically stable conductors to which contact elements are connected in a simple manner.

Diese Aufgabe wird gemäß der Erfindung dadurch gelöst,

  • daß zunächst mindestens je zwei vorgefertigte Leiter zur Anlage an den einander gegenüber liegenden Seiten des Trägers aus Isoliermaterial gebracht werden und
  • daß anschließend abdeckende Folien aus Isoliermaterial mit dem Träger und mit den Leitern verklebt werden, die zumindest im Bereich eines Endes der FL-BL mit Durchbrechungen versehen sind, welche durch einen Querstreifen der Folien zum Ende der FL-BL beabstandet sind und welche sich bis auf durchgehende Seitenstreifen an beiden Rändern der Folien nahezu über ihre ganze Breite erstrecken.
This object is achieved according to the invention characterized
  • that initially at least two prefabricated conductors are brought to bear against the mutually opposite sides of the carrier made of insulating material and
  • that subsequently covering films of insulating material are bonded to the carrier and with the conductors, which are provided at least in the region of one end of the FL-BL with openings which are spaced by a horizontal strip of the films to the end of the FL-BL and which except for extend continuous side strips on both edges of the films almost over their entire width.

Bei diesem Verfahren werden in der Technik von FL-BL an sich übliche, vorgefertigte Leiter verwendet. Deren elektrisch leitender Querschnitt ist in weiten Grenzen frei wählbar, da die Leiter gegebenenfalls auch ausreichend dick sein können. Die Leiter sind dementsprechend mechanisch relativ unempfindlich. Trotzdem kann bei vorgegebener Breite einer FL-BL beispielsweise die doppelte Anzahl von Leitern eingesetzt werden. Es kann andererseits bei gleichbleibender Leiterzahl die Breite der FL-BL vermindert werden.In this technique, FL-BL's art uses conventional prefabricated conductors. Their electrically conductive cross-section is freely selectable within wide limits, as the conductors may optionally be sufficiently thick. The conductors are therefore mechanically relatively insensitive. Nevertheless, for a given width of a FL-BL, for example, twice the number of conductors be used. On the other hand, if the number of conductors remains the same, the width of the FL-BL can be reduced.

Bei Einsatz dieses Verfahrens ist außerdem ein einfaches Kontaktieren der Leiter der FL-BL ohne zusätzliche Maßnahmen und Bauteile sichergestellt. Die Leiter liegen zumindest an einem Ende der FL-BL in den Durchbrechungen der abdeckenden Folien frei, so daß weiterführende Leiter beispielsweise direkt angelötet werden können. Trotz der Durchbrechungen bleiben die Leiter in ihrer Lage fixiert, da sie ebenso wie auf der ganzen Länge der FL-BL an ihren Enden durch den dort vorhandenen Querstreifen der Folien festgehalten werden.When using this method also a simple contact of the head of the FL-BL is ensured without additional measures and components. The conductors are exposed at least at one end of the FL-BL in the openings of the covering films, so that further conductors can be soldered directly, for example. Despite the openings, the conductors remain fixed in their position, since they are held just as on the entire length of the FL-BL at their ends by the existing there strip of film.

In Fig. 1 ist das Ende einer FL-BL mit einer beliebigen Anzahl (mindestens zwei pro Seite) von Leitern 1 dargestellt. Die Leiter 1 haben einen im wesentlichen rechteckigen Querschnitt. Das bedeutet, daß sie ganz rechteckig sein können, aber auch abgerundete Seitenkanten haben können. Die Leiter 1 liegen in einer Durchbrechung 2 blank vor. Die Durchbrechung 2 ist an den Seiten der FL-BL von durchgehenden Seitenstreifen 3 und 4 und zum Ende der FL-BL durch einen Querstreifen 5 des abdeckenden Isoliermaterials begrenzt.In Fig. 1, the end of a FL-BL with any number (at least two per side) of conductors 1 is shown. The conductors 1 have a substantially rectangular cross-section. This means that they can be quite rectangular, but also have rounded side edges. The conductors 1 are in an opening 2 before blank. The aperture 2 is bounded on the sides of the FL-BL by continuous side strips 3 and 4 and to the end of the FL-BL by a transverse strip 5 of the covering insulating material.

An die Leiter 1 können Leiter 6 von weiterführenden Leitungen 7 direkt angeschlossen werden, beispielsweise durch Löten.To the conductor 1 conductors 6 can be connected directly from further lines 7, for example by soldering.

Die Leiter 1 sind in der FL-BL in zwei Ebenen angeordnet. Sie sind durch einen aus Isoliermaterial bestehenden, bandförmigen Träger 8 voneinander getrennt. Auf den freien Seiten der Leiter 1 sind abdeckende Folien 9 und 10 angebracht, welche mit dem Träger 8 und den Leitern 1 verklebt sind. Die Durchbrechungen 2 sind bereits vor ihrer Aufbringung auf die Leiter 1 in den Folien 9 und 10 angebracht.The conductors 1 are arranged in two planes in the FL-BL. They are separated from each other by a band-shaped carrier 8 made of insulating material. On the free sides of the conductor 1 covering films 9 and 10 are attached, which are glued to the carrier 8 and the conductors 1. The openings 2 are already attached to the conductor 1 in the films 9 and 10 before their application.

Die Leiter 1 können gemäß Fig. 3 fluchtend in der FL-BL angeordnet werden. Sie können gemäß Fig. 4 in den beiden Ebenen aber auch seitlich gegeneinander versetzt sein. Das kann bedeuten, daß die Leiter 1 der beiden unterschiedlichen Ebenen jeweils im Bereich der Lücken zwischen den Leitern 1 der anderen Ebene liegen. Es ist aber auch eine Überlappung zwischen den Leitern 1 der beiden unterschiedlichen Ebenen möglich. Das gilt besonders für den Fall, wenn unterschiedlich breite Leiter 1 in den beiden Ebenen verwendet werden.The conductors 1 can be arranged as shown in FIG. 3 in alignment in the FL-BL. However, they can also be laterally offset from each other according to FIG. 4 in the two planes. This may mean that the conductors 1 of the two different planes each lie in the region of the gaps between the conductors 1 of the other plane. But it is also an overlap between the conductors 1 of the two different levels possible. This is especially true in the case when different widths of conductors 1 are used in the two planes.

Zur Herstellung der FL-BL werden die bereits mit Durchbrechungen 2 versehenen Folien 9 und 10 von Spulen 11 und 12 abgezogen und einem Werkzeug 13 zugeführt, dem auch der Träger 8 mit den auf beiden Seiten anliegenden Leitern 1 zugeführt wird. Im Werkzeug 13 werden die Folien 9 und 10 mit dem Träger 8 und den Leitern 1 verklebt. Aus dem Werkzeug 13 tritt eine "endlose" FL-BL aus, so wie sie beispielsweise in Fig. 6 dargestellt ist.To produce the FL-BL, the films 9 and 10 already provided with perforations 2 are drawn off from bobbins 11 and 12 and fed to a tool 13, to which the carrier 8 with the conductors 1 resting on both sides is fed. In the tool 13, the films 9 and 10 are bonded to the carrier 8 and the conductors 1. From the tool 13 exits an "endless" FL-BL, as shown for example in Fig. 6.

In den Folien 9 und 10 der FL-BL sind in vorgegebenen Abständen Durchbrechungen 2 angebracht. Einzelne FL-BL können von dem endlosen Gebilde abgetrennt werden. Dazu wird dasselbe beispielsweise entlang der in Fig. 6 gestrichelt eingezeichneten Linie 14 getrennt. Die so abgetrennten FL-BL haben an ihren Enden die oben beschriebenen Durchbrechungen 2.In the films 9 and 10 of the FL-BL perforations 2 are attached at predetermined intervals. Individual FL-BL can be separated from the endless entity. For this purpose, the same example, along the dashed line in Fig. 6 line 14 is separated. The thus separated FL-BL have at their ends the openings 2 described above.
