Definitions

  • the present invention relates to the field of electrical connection, and more particularly to the field of removable connectors intended to be connected to a terminal block.
  • plug-in connectors intended to electrically connect a set of conductive wires with one or more connection terminals to an electrical circuit. It is also known practice to write identification information on plug-in connectors, in the form of at least one mark arranged on one of the external surfaces of the connector.
  • Document D1 US5,158,476 discloses a connector intended to hold together and electrically connect a set of conductive wires with one or more terminals for connection to an electrical circuit, the connector being configured to carry a mark.
  • Document D2 US5,170,578 ) discloses a device for holding a driver equipped with a marker holder.
  • Document D3 entitled “Cable Management & Cable Tie Support # 3DPrinting Adafruit Industries - Makers, hackers, artists, designers, and engineers” dated January 28, 2012 and retrieved from the internet on June 20, 2017 , discloses a device for holding a set of cables.
  • Document D4 ( US2008 / 0078109 ) discloses a marker holder attached to a cable.
  • the mark is usually placed on the longitudinal flat surface of the connector which, in the usual configurations of use of these connectors, is located at the rear of the connector with respect to the operator; the mark is therefore most often hidden by the connector itself, and / or by the bundle of conductive wires connected to the connector. It is also necessary to secure all the conductor wires connected to this connector with the connector in question.
  • the aim of the invention is therefore to propose a solution to these problems.
  • the present invention relates to a device for mechanically holding a bundle of conductive wires intended to be connected to a connector according to independent claim 1.
  • the mark is not masked by the conductive wires connected to the connection equipment, which are held behind the connecting device, the mark being in front.
  • the connector is removable and intended to be connected to a terminal block.
  • the body of the device is made of an insulating material.
  • the through hole opens into the bottom of the cavity.
  • the complementary fixing element comprises a bearing portion against the stop zone.
  • the distance between the stop zone and the surface of the first face corresponds to at least 50% of the dimension of the extension of the complementary fixing element between the bearing portion and the end of the extension.
  • the cavity is configured to fully receive the extension.
  • the distance between the stop zone and the surface of the first face is greater than the dimension of the extension of the complementary fixing element between the bearing portion and the end of extension.
  • the at least one element for fixing the mark is protected by the cavity against the pressure of an object, in particular the bundle of wires, possibly compressed against the first face of the device.
  • the figure 2 presents a perspective view of an embodiment of the mechanical holding device 1 according to the invention.
  • This device preferably made of insulating and flexible material, has the shape of a rectangular parallelepiped, flattened and elongated, with two main faces, opposite to each other 2, 3.
  • a first attachment portion which in the embodiment shown in figure 2 , comprises two parts which can each independently of one another perform the function of mechanically maintaining the bundle of wires against one of the faces 2 of the device.
  • the first part of the first fixing portion consists of two through openings (4d, 4c) between the two faces of the device, inside which can be inserted a circular ring 12 a little less wide than these openings, to grip the bundle of conductive wires connected to the connector and hold it mechanically against one of the faces 2 of the device.
  • This first maintenance mode is not shown in figure 1 .
  • the second part of the first fixing portion is located between a first constriction zone 4a and a second constriction zone 4b of the width of the rectangular parallelepiped.
  • Each of these narrowing zones 4a, 4b forms a shoulder on the edge of the device on either side of the latter in the direction of the width; a circular ring 12 can be positioned between these shoulders, as shown in figure 1 , so as to grip the bundle of wires connected to the connector with this portion of the device and to mechanically hold the bundle against one of the faces 2 of the device; the two shoulders prevent in particular a sliding of the circular ring 12 beyond the portion of the device between the two shoulders 4a, 4b.
  • a second fixing portion 5 is placed under the first in the embodiment of the mechanical holding device shown in FIG. figure 2 .
  • This second fixing portion is delimited by a recess hollowed out in the thickness of the device, on each face 2, 3 thereof; this recess forms on each face 2, 3 a rectangular cavity; two through holes or slots 5a, 5b create a breakthrough between the bottom of one cavity and the bottom of the other, these slots being positioned at the ends of the length of the cavities; these slots or through holes are complementary to the two extensions 7a, 7b of the reference 7, and make it possible to fix, or to clip, the reference 7 against the face of the device opposite to that against which the conductive wires are mechanically held by the first portion of fixing, and also against which the connector is held by the third fixing portion, as will be specified below.
  • the mark 7 also preferably has a shape complementary to that of the cavity into which it can be inserted.
  • the second fixing portion may have only a single cavity 11 on the face 2, the through holes or slots being made between the face 3 without a recess and the bottom of the cavity 11 formed on the face 2. In this case the mark is attached to the face 3 without inserting into a cavity.
  • the figure 4 shows in perspective the first face 2 of the device opposite to that on which the reference 7 is attached.
  • the slots or through holes 5a and 5b open onto this face 2 inside a cavity 11 of the device, forming a stop zone at the bottom of the cavity.
  • the extensions 7a, 7b of the reference 7 are arranged to fit into the slots or complementary through holes 5a and 5b and emerge at the level of the bottom of the cavity.
  • a portion of each extension bears on the abutment zone formed at the outlet of the hole or of the slot crossed by the extension in question, while a complementary portion of extension extends beyond.
  • this complementary portion included between the bearing portion and the end of the extension, may be less than the depth of the cavity 11, so that these extensions do not protrude outside the volume delimited by this cavity.
  • These extensions are thus protected by the cavity from a pressure which could result from an external object pressing against this face of the device, and in particular from the bundle of wires held against this face of the device, pressure which would have the effect of pushing the extensions out. of their respective accommodation.
  • these extensions 5a and 5b protrude outside the volume delimited by the cavity, they would not be pushed back enough to be extracted from their housing, because of the edges of the cavity which would prevent the pressure from s 'exert to the bottom of the cavity on the extensions 5a and 5b.
  • the dimension of the extensions will be chosen so that the distance between the stop zone formed at the outlet of the through-hole at the bottom of the cavity and the surface of the first face, in other words the depth of the cavity 11, is at least equal to 50% of the dimension of an extension between the bearing portion and the end of the extension.
  • This fixing portion is formed on the face 2 of the device, which is shown in figure 4 , and against which is also held all the conductive son.
  • Two extensions 13 are formed at the base of the device and oriented along a plane parallel to the face 2 of the device, slightly offset, in the direction of the thickness of the device, with respect to the plane of this face 2 of the device. These extensions are arranged to cooperate with two complementary openings 14 formed on the surface of the connector on which the device is fixed as illustrated in the figure. figure 5 .
  • the device comprises a folding zone 10 positioned between the first fixing portion 4 and the third fixing portion 6.
