Definitions
- a disadvantage of the prior connector is that it is relatively complex and time consuming to assemble in the field particularly as a clamping force sufficient for strain relief must be obtained by the application of a series of clamping screws during assembly of the housing shells about the conductors.
- the connector is for receiving conductors grouped either as flat cable or a bundle, and comprises a second conductor locating member identical to the first, the first conductor locating faces each being formed with a cable engaging rib extending along only a first edge in a plane parallel to the conductor group, and the conductor locating members being locatable in the housing with the first faces adjacent and the first edges remote from each other so that the ribs are offset from each other spaced longitudinally of a flat cable located between the conductor locating members in a flat cable locating condition of the connector or with the second faces adjacent with the openings together defining a bundle receiving aperture in a bundle receiving condition of the connector.
- the longitudinal stagger of the ribs in the assembly provides a non-linear path for the flat cable. Any tension causing straightening of the cable will tend, initially, to increase the engaging force between the cable and the locating members thereby increasing any strain relief.
- the ribs may also be hooked to improve such strain relief. Thus a requirement for clamping screws to apply the clamping force on the cable is obviated, facilitating assembly of the connector.
- the housing may comprise guides which locate the members for limited sliding movement toward and away from the flat cable whereby the flat cable is easily located between the members prior to final attachment of the housing shells together. This facilitates assembly of the connector housing shells together about the cable.
- the structure is particularly suitable for use in an environment subject to vibration.
- each half-shell 12 comprises a base wall 20, side walls 21 and 21' upstanding from opposite edges of the base wall and rear wall 22 joining the side walls at the wire receiving face 17.
- Two pairs of fastening eyes 23 and 23' upstand from the base at its junction with the respective side walls, the eyes of one pair 23 being longitudinally staggered from the eyes 23' of the other pair and joined by a strengthening rib 24 which extend in parallel relation across the base wall adjacent the rear wall and a pair of locating posts 26 and 26' upstand in spaced apart relation from the base wall between the channels 25 and 25'.
- the rear wall is formed with spaced-apart knock-outs 27 and 27' removable to provide bundle receiving apertures when the housing shells are assembled together.
- the conductor locating members 18 comprise first and second, opposite, flat cable and conductor bundle locating faces 31, 32.
- the first face is formed with a rib 33 along a first edge having a canted edge to define a hook.
- the second face is formed with a pair of spaced bundle receiving openings 34, 34' and a step 35 extending between the openings along a second edge of the second face spaced longitudinally (in the direction of the cable) from the rib 33.
- a pair of through sockets 36, 36' extend in spaced relation through the members.
- the terminal block In assembling the connector to the fiat cable 15, the terminal block is located in a half-shell adjacent the mating face 14 and the cable extending over a first face of cable locating member located in the half-shell by the posts 26, 26' being freely received in the sockets 36, 36'.
- the other half-shell is then assembled to the first with the other cable locating member similarly mounted on the posts, and the half-shells assembled together, eye pairs 23 of one shell interdigitating with eye pairs 23' of the other half-shell to that jackscrews 38, 38' can be threaded in locking engagement through both pairs on each side of the housing and secured by circlips as shown in Figure 3.
- the steps 35, 35' are received in respective channels and the post 26, 26' received in respective sockets.
- the connector is particularly adapted to mate with an upstanding printed circuit board post header formed with an elongate keyway for receiving a polarising key in a preselected longitudinal position corresponding with the location of a removed tooth.
