Description

L'invention concerne un dispositif pour fixer un câble coaxial, et le relier à la masse d'une plaque de circuit imprimé, ce câble coaxial comportant une tresse de blindage, recouverte d'une gaine isolante, et qui doit être reliée à un potentiel de référence pour procurer un effet de blindage. L'effet de blindage aux hautes fréquences est meilleur si la tresse est reliée, à la masse, en plusieurs points.The invention relates to a device for fixing a coaxial cable, and connecting it to the ground of a printed circuit board, this coaxial cable comprising a shielding braid, covered with an insulating sheath, and which must be connected to a potential. for providing a shielding effect. The shielding effect at high frequencies is better if the braid is connected, to ground, at several points.

Classiquement, un câble coaxial est fixé à une plaque de circuit imprimé par un collier de matière plastique fixé à un trou de la plaque du circuit imprimé: ou par un étrier de fil de cuivre étamé qui traverse la plaque par deux trous et qui est soudé sur deux pastilles du circuit imprimé, entourant ces trous. Ces dispositifs connus ne réalisent pas une liaison électrique entre la masse du circuit imprimé et la tresse du câble coaxial, qui est recouverte par une gaine isolante.Conventionally, a coaxial cable is fixed to a printed circuit board by a plastic collar fixed to a hole in the printed circuit board: or by a stirrup of tinned copper wire which crosses the plate by two holes and which is welded on two pads of the printed circuit, surrounding these holes. These known devices do not make an electrical connection between the mass of the printed circuit and the braid of the coaxial cable, which is covered by an insulating sheath.

On connaît par ailleurs le document EP-A-0 228 750 qui décrit un connecteur pour un câble coaxial. Ce connecteur est prévu pour raccorder les deux conducteurs du câble au circuit imprimé, ce qui nécessite une préparation de ce câble. Il s'agit d'un composant relativement complexe comprenant plusieurs pièces pour assurer les fonctions de connexion et de maintien du câble.Document EP-A-0 228 750 is also known which describes a connector for a coaxial cable. This connector is designed to connect the two cable conductors to the printed circuit, which requires preparation of this cable. It is a relatively complex component comprising several parts to provide the connection and cable maintenance functions.

Le but de l'invention est de proposer un dispositif mécaniquement très simple qui permette de fixer un câble coaxial à un circuit imprimé et de le relier à la masse de ce circuit, sans préparation du câble coaxial, c'est-à-dire sans avoir à le dépouiller de la partie isolante.The object of the invention is to propose a mechanically very simple device which makes it possible to fix a coaxial cable to a printed circuit and to connect it to the ground of this circuit, without preparation of the coaxial cable, that is to say without have to strip it of the insulating part.

Ce dispositif pour fixer un câble coaxial et le relier à la masse d'une plaque de circuit imprimé (le câble coaxial comportant une tresse de blindage recouverte d'une gaine isolante) comprend :

  • un berceau en matière plastique, intercalé entre le câble et la plaque de circuit imprimé;
  • un étrier en tôle de métal soudable, comportant au moins une fourche constituant un contact à déplacement d'isolant pour établir un contact avec la tresse; cet étrier comportant de plus une pluralité de pattes insérées dans des trous de la plaque de circuit imprimé, et soudées sur des pastilles du circuit imprimé;

et, selon l'invention, les extrémités de chaque fourche de l'étrier sont orientées vers le circuit imprimé pour retenir le câble, cet étrier étant serti sur le câble mis en place sur le berceau.This device for fixing a coaxial cable and connecting it to the ground of a printed circuit board (the coaxial cable comprising a shielding braid covered with an insulating sheath) comprises:
  • a plastic cradle interposed between the cable and the printed circuit board;
  • a stirrup made of weldable sheet metal, comprising at least one fork constituting an insulation displacement contact for establishing contact with the braid; this stirrup further comprising a plurality of tabs inserted into holes in the printed circuit board, and welded to pads of the printed circuit;

and, according to the invention, the ends of each fork of the stirrup are oriented towards the printed circuit to retain the cable, this stirrup being crimped on the cable put in place on the cradle.

Le dispositif ainsi caractérisé permet de fixer solidement un câble coaxial, puisque l'étrier est soudé sur des pastilles du circuit imprimé, et permet de relier à la masse la tresse de blindage du câble sans avoir à la dénuder, car l'étrier constitue en même temps un contact à déplacement d'isolant.The device thus characterized makes it possible to securely fix a coaxial cable, since the stirrup is soldered on pads of the printed circuit, and makes it possible to connect to ground the braid shielding the cable without having to strip it, because the stirrup constitutes at the same time an insulation displacement contact.

Selon une autre caractéristique, le berceau comporte : des moyens pour guider l'étrier pendant son insertion; un creux pour contenir et retenir le câble; et un pion cylindrique emboîtable dans un trou de la plaque du circuit imprimé. Le dispositif ainsi caractérisé est très facile à monter car il est permet de décomposer le montage en deux étapes. Une première étape consiste à positionner avec précision le berceau, en emboîtant le pion dans un trou de la plaque, et à fixer provisoirement le câble en le plaçant dans le creux du berceau. Une seconde étape consiste à placer avec précision l'étrier, grâce à la présence du berceau qui le guide, puis à sertir l'étrier et à le souder.According to another characteristic, the cradle comprises: means for guiding the stirrup during its insertion; a recess for containing and retaining the cable; and a cylindrical pin which fits into a hole in the printed circuit board. The device thus characterized is very easy to assemble because it allows the assembly to be broken down into two stages. A first step is to precisely position the cradle, by fitting the pin into a hole in the plate, and to temporarily fix the cable by placing it in the hollow of the cradle. A second step consists in placing the stirrup with precision, thanks to the presence of the cradle which guides it, then in crimping the stirrup and in welding it.

Selon une autre caractéristique, l'étrier comporte deux fourches situées de part et d'autre du berceau et chevauchant le câble. Le dispositif ainsi caractérisé assure une liaison très fiable entre la tresse de blindage et la masse, puisqu'il y a deux fourches assurant deux contacts à déplacement d'isolant. D'autre part, les deux fourches étant situées de part et d'autre du berceau, elles le maintiennent solidement et évitent toute possibilité de sortie du berceau.According to another characteristic, the stirrup has two forks located on either side of the cradle and overlapping the cable. The device thus characterized provides a very reliable connection between the shielding braid and the ground, since there are two forks ensuring two insulation displacement contacts. On the other hand, the two forks being located on either side of the cradle, they hold it securely and avoid any possibility of leaving the cradle.

Selon un mode de réalisation préférentiel, l'étrier est constitué d'une seule tôle découpée en forme de H, comportant quatre branches et une plaque médiane, repliée de telle sorte que les quatre branches sont orthogonales à la plaque centrale et sont d'un même côté par rapport à cette plaque, pour former les deux fourches. Le dispositif ainsi caractérisé est particulièrement simple et économique à réaliser.According to a preferred embodiment, the stirrup consists of a single sheet cut into an H shape, comprising four branches and a central plate, folded so that the four branches are orthogonal to the central plate and are of a same side with respect to this plate, to form the two forks. The device thus characterized is particularly simple and economical to produce.

L'invention sera mieux comprise et d'autres détails apparaîtront à l'aide de la description ci-dessous et des figures l'accompagnant :

  • la figure 1 représente une vue éclatée d'un exemple de réalisation du dispositif selon l'invention;
  • la figure 2 représente une vue de face du berceau, de cet exemple de réalisation;
  • la figure 3 représente une vue de face de l'étrier, de cet exemple de réalisation.
The invention will be better understood and other details will appear with the aid of the description below and the accompanying figures:
  • Figure 1 shows an exploded view of an embodiment of the device according to the invention;
  • FIG. 2 represents a front view of the cradle, of this exemplary embodiment;
  • FIG. 3 represents a front view of the stirrup, of this exemplary embodiment.

L'exemple de réalisation représenté sur la figure 1 fixe un câble coaxial 2 sur une plaque de circuit imprimé 4, et relie la tresse de blindage 8 du câble 2 à la masse du circuit imprimé. Il comporte :

  • un étrier 1, constitué d'une tôle, en maillechort de 0,3mm d'épaisseur, découpée en forme de H, comportant quatre branches 9, 10, 19, 20, et une plaque médiane 16, repliée de telle sorte que les quatre branches sont orthogonales à la plaque médiane 16 et sont d'un même côté par rapport à cette plaque 16, pour former deux fourches;
  • un berceau 3, en nylon moulé, ayant une forme générale parallèlipèdique mais comportant un creux 13 en forme de U ayant une largeur égale au diamètre du câble coaxial 2, et comportant un pion cylindrique 14, sur le côté opposé à celui où est situé le creux 13.
The embodiment shown in Figure 1 fixes a coaxial cable 2 on a printed circuit board 4, and connects the shielding braid 8 of the cable 2 to the ground of the printed circuit. It comprises :
  • a stirrup 1, made of a sheet, made of nickel silver 0.3 mm thick, cut into an H shape, comprising four branches 9, 10, 19, 20, and a middle plate 16, folded so that the four branches are orthogonal to the middle plate 16 and are on the same side with respect to this plate 16, to form two forks;
  • a cradle 3, in molded nylon, having a general parallelepiped shape but comprising a U-shaped hollow 13 having a width equal to the diameter of the coaxial cable 2, and comprising a cylindrical pin 14, on the side opposite to that on which the hollow 13.

La fourche constituée par les branches 19 et 20, et la fourche constituée par les branches 9 et 10, constituent chacune un contact à déplacement d'isolant qui est serti sur le câble 2, quand l'étrier 1 est monté. Ces fourches traversent la gaine isolante 7 du câble 2 et pincent la tresse 8.The fork formed by the branches 19 and 20, and the fork formed by the branches 9 and 10, each constitute an insulating displacement contact which is crimped onto the cable 2, when the stirrup 1 is mounted. These forks pass through the insulating sheath 7 of the cable 2 and pinch the braid 8.

Chaque branche 9, 10, 19, 20, se termine par une patte 21 constituant un picot de soudage. Les quatre pattes 21 de l'étrier 1 sont insérées dans des trous 6 de la plaque 4 de circuit imprimé et elles sont soudées sur des pastilles 22 du circuit imprimé, sur la face de la plaque 4 opposée à celle où est situé le dispositif de fixation. Les pastilles 22 sont reliées, par des liaisons non représentées, à la masse du circuit imprimé. Naturellement, dans les cas où le but est seulement de fixer le câble coaxial, il est possible de prévoir des pastilles 22 isolées de la masse du circuit imprimé.Each branch 9, 10, 19, 20, ends with a tab 21 constituting a welding pin. The four tabs 21 of the stirrup 1 are inserted into holes 6 of the printed circuit board 4 and they are welded to pads 22 of the printed circuit, on the face of the plate 4 opposite to that where the device is located. fixation. The pads 22 are connected, by connections not shown, to the ground of the printed circuit. Naturally, in cases where the aim is only to fix the coaxial cable, it is possible to provide pads 22 isolated from the mass of the printed circuit.

La figure 2 représente une vue de face du berceau 3 et montre plus complètement le pion cylindrique 14 et la forme du creux 13. Le câble est représenté en pointillés. Il est maintenu dans le creux 13 par deux bossages, 11 et 12, ayant une forme cylindrique et qui constituent deux freins situés respectivement sur les deux parois du creux 13, pour retenir le câble 2 dans le creux 13, en attendant sa fixation définitive par l'étrier 1. Quand le câble a été mis en place dans le creux 13, il ne dépasse pas du creux 13, et il est retenu par la plaque médiane 16 de l'étrier 1. Le berceau 3 comporte deux faces planes, telles que la face 15, qui sont parallèles entre elles et qui sont séparées par une épaisseur égale à la distance entre les branches 19, 20, d'une part, et les branches 9, 10, d'autre part; de telle sorte, que ces faces guident avec précision l'insertion de l'étrier 1 dans les trous 6. L'étrier 1 est guidé en outre par le câble 2 qui est en place dans le berceau 3. Le montage de l'étrier 1 est donc réalisable sans tâtonner.FIG. 2 represents a front view of the cradle 3 and shows more completely the cylindrical pin 14 and the shape of the hollow 13. The cable is shown in dotted lines. It is held in the hollow 13 by two bosses, 11 and 12, having a cylindrical shape and which constitute two brakes situated respectively on the two walls of the recess 13, to retain the cable 2 in the recess 13, pending its final fixing by the caliper 1. When the cable has been put in place in the recess 13, it does not exceed pitch of the hollow 13, and it is retained by the middle plate 16 of the stirrup 1. The cradle 3 has two flat faces, such as the face 15, which are parallel to each other and which are separated by a thickness equal to the distance between the branches 19, 20, on the one hand, and the branches 9, 10, on the other hand; so that these faces precisely guide the insertion of the stirrup 1 into the holes 6. The stirrup 1 is further guided by the cable 2 which is in place in the cradle 3. The mounting of the stirrup 1 is therefore achievable without fumbling.

La figure 3 représente une vue de face de l'étrier 1, montrant les détails de réalisation de la fourche constituée des branches 19 et 20; et montrant, en pointillés, la position du câble 2 lorsque l'étrier 1 a été serti sur celui-ci. Les branches 19 et 20 délimitent une gorge en forme d'entonnoir, comportant : une embouchure 18 ayant une largeur supérieure au diamètre du câble 2 muni de sa gaine isolante 7; et une partie plus resserrée 17 ayant une largeur égale au diamètre de la tresse de blindage 8; de telle sorte que la gaine 7 est traversée par le chant des branches 19 et 20, et celui-ci vient pincer la tresse 8 pour établir un contact.FIG. 3 represents a front view of the stirrup 1, showing the construction details of the fork made up of the branches 19 and 20; and showing, in dotted lines, the position of the cable 2 when the stirrup 1 has been crimped onto it. The branches 19 and 20 delimit a funnel-shaped groove, comprising: a mouth 18 having a width greater than the diameter of the cable 2 provided with its insulating sheath 7; and a tighter portion 17 having a width equal to the diameter of the shielding braid 8; so that the sheath 7 is crossed by the edge of the branches 19 and 20, and the latter comes to pinch the braid 8 to establish contact.

La portée de l'invention n'est pas limitée à l'exemple de réalisation décrit ci-dessus, de nombreuses variantes sont à la portée de l'homme de l'art. L'invention est applicable à la construction de tout dispositif électronique comportant des câbles coaxiaux fixés sur des plaques de circuit imprimé.The scope of the invention is not limited to the embodiment described above, many variants are within the reach of those skilled in the art. The invention is applicable to the construction of any electronic device comprising coaxial cables fixed on printed circuit boards.
