Abstract
Description
La présente invention vise un organe de contact électrique femelle.The present invention relates to a female electrical contact member.
L'invention se rapporte à des organes comprenant, à une extrémité, des moyens de fixation d'un conducteur électrique et, à l'autre extrémité, un canal à section rectangulaire destiné à recevoir une languette mâle, dans deux parois opposées du canal étant découpées des barrettes élastiques pliées vers l'intérieur du canal pour former une pince élastique destinée à enserrer la languette mâle.The invention relates to members comprising, at one end, means for fixing an electrical conductor and, at the other end, a rectangular section channel intended to receive a male tongue, in two opposite walls of the channel being cut elastic bars folded towards the inside of the channel to form an elastic clamp intended to grip the male tongue.
Comme le matériau dans lequel est réalisé l'organe femelle doit être bon conducteur de l'électricité et que l'élasticité de la matière est faible pour renforcer l'élasticité élastique de la pince, on prévoit un élément rapporté réalisé en un matériau tel que de l'acier à ressort et qui comporte des contrebarrettes qui, en portant contre lesdites barrettes, renforcent l'action élastique de ces dernières.As the material in which the female organ is made must be a good conductor of electricity and the elasticity of the material is low to reinforce the elastic elasticity of the clamp, an attached element is provided made of a material such as of spring steel and which includes double bars which, by bearing against said bars, reinforce the elastic action of the latter.
La réalisation de ces éléments rapportés est souvent complexe et grève le prix de revient de tels organes femelles.The production of these added elements is often complex and strikes the cost price of such female organs.
L'un des buts de l'invention est de remédier à ces inconvénients.One of the aims of the invention is to remedy these drawbacks.
L'organe de contact électrique femelle, selon l'invention, est du type réalisé à partir d'un flan métallique convenablement plié et découpé pour présenter, à une extrémité, des moyens pour la fixation d'un conducteur électrique et, à l'autre extrémité, un canal à section rectangulaire présentant une paroi de plancher, une paroi de plafond et deux parois latérales dans lesquelles sont découpées des barrettes élastiques pliées vers l'intérieur du canal pour constituer une pince destinée à enserrer une languette mâle engagée par une ouverture d'introduction dudit canal, les extrémités libres des barrettes étant tournées vers ladite ouverture d'introduction, l'action élastique des barrettes étant renforcée par des contre-barrettes d'un élément rapporté coopérant avec lesdites barrettes élastiques, ledit organe étant caractérisé en ce que l'élément rapporté est constitué par deux plaquettes fixées contre les parois latérales et dans lesquelles sont découpées les contre-barettes.The female electrical contact member, according to the invention, is of the type produced from a metal blank suitably folded and cut to present, at one end, means for fixing an electrical conductor and, at the other end, a rectangular section channel having a floor wall, a ceiling wall and two side walls in which are cut elastic bars folded towards the inside of the channel to constitute a clamp intended to grip a male tongue engaged by an opening for introducing said channel, the ends free of the bars being turned towards said insertion opening, the elastic action of the bars being reinforced by counter-bars of an attached element cooperating with said elastic bars, said member being characterized in that the added element is constituted by two plates fixed against the side walls and from which the counter-bars are cut.
Suivant une caractéristique constructive, chaque paroi latérale comporte une patte découpée et pliée pour s'étendre en direction de l'extrémité libre de la barrette élastique découpée dans la paroi correspondante. Ainsi, on forme, du côté de l'ouverture d'introduction, d'une part, un guidage pour la languette mâle et, d'autre part, une sécurité pour s'opposer à l'introduction d'une languette mâle ayant une épaisseur trop importante.According to a constructive characteristic, each side wall has a cut and folded tab to extend in the direction of the free end of the elastic strip cut in the corresponding wall. Thus, one forms, on the side of the introduction opening, on the one hand, a guide for the male tongue and, on the other hand, a security to oppose the introduction of a male tongue having a too thick.
Suivant encore une autre caractéristique, chaque plaquette présente une butée pliée pour s'étendre vers le canal et destinée à limiter le débattement des barrettes élastiques.According to yet another characteristic, each plate has a folded stop to extend towards the channel and intended to limit the movement of the elastic bars.
Suivant un détail constructif particulier, chaque paroi latérale est conformée pour présenter des rivets destinés à s'engager dans des trous des plaquettes.According to a particular constructive detail, each side wall is shaped to present rivets intended to engage in holes in the plates.
Chaque plaquette peut comporter, à son extrémité tournée vers les moyens de fixation du conducteur électrique, une patte de retenue.Each plate may include, at its end facing the means for fixing the electrical conductor, a retaining tab.
Suivant une variante de réalisation, la paroi de plafond du canal est formée par un prolongement de l'une des parois latérales et s'étend jusqu'au voisinage du bord libre de l'autre paroi latérale en ménageant une fente, ladite paroi de plafond comportant des ouvertures, tandis que la plaquette, destinée à être fixée sur ladite autre paroi latérale, présente un rebord destiné à s'insérer dans la fente et terminé par des ergots destinés à s'engager dans lesdites ouvertures.According to an alternative embodiment, the ceiling wall of the channel is formed by an extension of one of the side walls and extends to the vicinity of the free edge of the other side wall by providing a slot, said ceiling wall having openings, while the plate, intended to be fixed on said other side wall, has a flange intended to be inserted into the slot and terminated by lugs intended to engage in said openings.
On réalise ainsi un organe de contact électrique qui ne risque pas de se déformer lors de l'introduction de la languette mâle.This produces an electrical contact member which does not risk being deformed during the introduction of the male tongue.
Enfin, les plaquettes comportent, à leur extrémité libre destinée à être tournée du côté de l'ouverture d'introduction du canal, des languettes destinées à être pliées vers l'intérieur dudit canal.Finally, the plates have, at their free end intended to be turned towards the side of the opening for introducing the channel, tongues intended to be folded towards the inside of said channel.
L'invention va maintenant être décrite avec plus de détails en se référant à des modes de réalisation particuliers donnés à titre d'exemple seulement et représentés aux dessins annexés, dans lesquels :The invention will now be described in more detail with reference to particular embodiments given by way of example only and shown in the accompanying drawings, in which:
