Definitions
- the present invention relates to a device for connecting at least two wires conductors each surrounded by an insulating sheath, comprising a housing, in which is provided a passage for introducing an end portion sheathed wires, means for receiving said end portions in the housing, means arranged to be introduced into the housing transversely to the sheaths, comprising at least two slots for gripping the sheaths of the wires and pull them towards the inside and the bottom of the case and arranged to cooperate with the means for receiving the sheaths to strip the wires longitudinally.
- the device of the invention is used to connect, mechanically and electrically, multi-strand or, preferably, single strand.
- connection devices especially by patent French 86 15553 published under number 2 606 558.
- a conductive clip provided with pulling slots wires, between teeth, is moved along a latch, provided with a wire receiving opening with a lower edge constituting an edge of conductive stripping, to pull the ends of the wires towards the bottom of the case and strip the wires longitudinally.
- the clip is carried by a drawer, or plug, which is pushed into the housing to move the clip along the latch and make the connection, pushing in the plug in the housing being carried out by the operator using pliers.
- the plug is not perfectly inserted in the housing.
- the clip when pressed, the clip does not move parallel to the latch. It can also be so by the mere fact of handling of the pliers. So, by tilting the clip, a wedge effect between the clip and the latch may arise and cause cutting, beyond the sheaths, wires themselves.
- the present invention therefore aims to propose a device for connecting the type mentioned above, without risk of cutting the wires.
- connection device is characterized in that it comprises spacer means between the means for receiving the wires sheathed and the gripping and pulling means to maintain their spacing above a cutting threshold.
- the spacer means are arranged so that the means input and draw are introduced into the housing parallel to the means for receiving the sheathed wires.
- the spacer means are arranged on the gripping and pulling means.
- the spacer means may have been added to the means of gripping and drawing, for example by welding, or having been produced by conformation of the gripping and drawing means, for example by stamping. It may be a positive conformation, on the turned side towards the receiving means (boss, rib or any other projection), or negative, on the opposite (groove) side.
- document GB-A-1 034 996 teaches a clip having a groove hollowed out on the side opposite a latch, but this groove does not, however, have the function of avoiding a wedge effect between the two pieces. It is used only to receive the strands of a single wire. The concept spacer is excluded from this document.
- document US-A-3,963,318 involves boundary markings on a clip, but which only serve to stiffen and especially to determine a length of conductor cutting, unrelated to spacers intended for avoid cutting wires.
- the passage introduction of the sheathed wires of the housing advantageously comprises means for separating the wires, whereby the wires cannot be cross and be cut when receiving means cooperation and means of seizure and drawing.
- the device shown comprises a substantially cylindrical housing 1 and comprising on its outer surface a chimney 2 for supplying wires, substantially oblong section.
- the chimney 2 extends into 2 'inside of the case.
- the housing is open on its upper face.
- the housing can be for example in molded plastic, giving it near its opening a certain elasticity.
- a receiving latch 3 rigid, substantially shaped rectangular, and comprising in the extension of the chimney 2, 2 ', a opening 4 intended to be crossed by wires, the cross section of which is substantially equal to that of the chimney 2, or preferably slightly superior.
- the lower edge 4 'of the latch, closest to the bottom of the housing, is rounded to avoid possible cutting of the wires.
- Latch 3 is resistant and good conductor of electricity.
- the latch 3 comprises, in part lower, a base 5, of smaller width and low height, introduced in a groove 6 formed in the bottom of the housing. for, when the latch is placed in the case, give it a correct position.
- the base 5 of the latch 3 On its face opposite to that facing the chimney, the base 5 of the latch 3 carries a locking pin 7 in the adjacent wall of the groove 6, to prevent its possible rise.
- the lug 7 was obtained by stamping.
- the bottom of the housing 1 in step is raised in 20, to provide a stop surface for the portions end of the wires to be connected, parallel to the chimney 2, as well as for a clip which will be discussed later.
- the abutment surface 20 extends towards the rear by a downward sloping surface.
- the device further comprises a drawer, or stopper, hollow 9 also of general cylindrical shape.
- the cap includes a skirt 91, extending here substantially over the two third of its height, with an outside diameter slightly greater than the diameter inside of the upper opening of the housing over most of its height, only the portion 92 of the skirt, adjacent to an annular shoulder formed by the closed upper part 93 of the stopper, having a diameter outside smaller than the inside diameter of the opening of the case.
- the hood 93 of generally frustoconical shape has a lower part, therefore of larger section than that of the opening of the case, and an upper part, of smaller section, but always larger than that of the opening of the case. It’s with, this time, a clamp, that it is necessary to push the cover 93 into the housing, for totally lock the assembly. Note that the upper edge of the opening of the case is slightly bent at 40 inwards ( Figure 3), and that a second click, louder than the first, is heard at the time of forced entry and complete the plug in the housing. The lower end of the skirt wears lugs 94 for temporarily securing the plug and the housing, before crimping or for the storage of the whole.
- the legs 94 elastic, are curved outwards. After force to cross the opening of the case by the legs 94, the plug 9 is connected to the housing.
- the stopper is also here in molded plastic.
- the plug 9 has a recess 11, crossed by the extension 2 'of the chimney 2 in closed position.
- the interior of the plug 9 is shaped so as to receive and maintain in places a clip 12.
- the clip 12 consists of a plate substantially rectangular, the narrowest edges 50, 51 of which have been previously curved at an angle of about 180 °, each on the same side. It should be noted that any rigor an angle greater than 90 ° would ensure the function.
- the diameter of bends and the thickness of the plate forming the clip 12 are such that it can, as we will see later, come to cooperate, by fitting, with the latch 3. In the same way, the latch 3 can have its curved edges, instead of those of clip 12, which would then be flat, but it's a solution less satisfactory.
- the clip 12 has, here between teeth 10, three slots 13, of width slightly less than the diameter of the core of the wires to be connected, to increase the contact surface formed from the lower part of the clip. that introduced first in the case. Their height is slightly greater than the diameter of the wire sheath.
- the clip 12 here carries a single locking lug 33 on the latch 3, obtained by stamping, by cooperation of the end of this lug with the edge upper of the opening 4 of the latch 3. Thus, any possible ascent of the clip is avoided. There could also be two pins.
- the lug 33 of locking of the clip 12 on the latch 3 and the latch 7 of the latch 3 in the groove 6 of the bottom of the housing are substantially coplanar, and in any case extend in the same interval 14 separating the clip 12 and the latch 3.
- this lug 33 and 7 are directed in the opposite direction from its respective foot, all this contributing to the quality of locking.
- the width of the gap 14, between the clip 12 and the latch 3 is less than the diameter of the core of the sheathed wires to be connected and in any event maintained above a cutting threshold by two bosses 52, 53 from stamping and projecting from the side 54 of the clip 12 facing the latch 3, substantially in line with the curved edges 50, 51 and at the level of the slots 13.
- the bosses 52, 53 here therefore two in number, have a shape substantially rectangular but they could have another.
- bosses 52, 53 are therefore that of a spacer, that is to say of maintain the distance between the side 54 of the clip 12 and the latch 3, at least equal to their width, very slightly greater than the designated theoretical size "cutting threshold", in order to avoid cutting the wires. In this regard, it is "anti-cut” bosses.
- the bosses 52, 53 were obtained by positive conformation of the clip 12.
- the clip 12 has been stamped to form a groove 55 hollowed out on the side 56 opposite the latch 3 and intended to receive the wires sheathed. In this case, it is the lateral edges 56. 57 of this groove which form function of spacer or anti-cut bosses. This is a conformation negative, as opposed to the positive conformation of the clip 12 of Figures 8, 9.
- the chimney 2, and its extension 2 ' are hollowed out at 15, to serve as grease reserve after connection, or crimping.
- ribs longitudinal 16 are provided in the housing of Figures 2, 3 for good separate the sheathed wires in the introduction chimney 2 and its extension 2 ', so that the grease envelops each wire well, as is the case in the box of Figure 7.
- the housing of Figure 7 differs from that of Figures 2, 3 by the causes the dividing ribs in the feed stack 2 to extend into a membrane or partition 16 'which genuinely separates the wires and prevents them from crossing and being cut between the teeth 10 of the clip 12.
- the operation of the device is as follows.
- the wires are introduced so that their end portion passes through the opening 4 of the receiving latch 3 and comes into abutment against the internal face 18 of the housing, opposite the chimney 2.
- latch 3 and the clip 12 are respectively placed in the housing 1 and the plug 9 so that when the plug enters the housing, the clip 12 fits on the latch 3, its two bends surrounding the edges of the latch and move along the latch 3 parallel to him.
- the plug 9 provided with the clip 12 has been pushed towards the inside of the housing 1, by example using universal pliers, until the slots 13 of the clip 12, after having grasped, each, the sheath of a wire to be connected, slightly in below its free end, and pulled the wire towards the inside and the bottom of the case, put the end portions of the wires in abutment against the bottom upper 20, the clip 12 itself coming into abutment against this bottom 20 after having forced the wires to fully penetrate the slots 13.
- the recess 11 allows the plug 9 to be pushed into the housing without the vertical position of the wires between the chimney and the latch is altered.
- the clip 12 and the bottom 20 bend the wires a second time, but in the other direction, so that once the connection is made, the latch 3, the clip 12 and the bottom 20 form a baffle for the wires which are thus firmly blocked.
- the bending angles wires are worth approximately 90 °, in one direction and in the other.
- the stripping is carried out by creep of the sheaths 18 in the space between the clip and the latch.
- the core of each wire is in electrical contact with the clip 12 and the latch 3, by the portion of the vertical inner wall adjacent to the opening 4.
- the cores of the wires are thus in electrical contact with one another.
- the wires are introduced into the housing linearly, without risk of abutting against the latch.
- connection can be made three wires simultaneously, since the clip 12 here has three slots 13.
- the clip 12 is provided with a certain elasticity and that the slots 13 can grip them between their walls, wires of different diameters can be connected together.
- the clip may or may not be metallic insofar as it does not act as a driver. It can for example be monobloc with the plug.
- the latch may possibly be partially not driver.
- wires being introduced into the housing, through the chimney, its extension and opening of the latch, until they stop against the opposite inner wall of the housing, one can advantageously hollow out slightly the case at this point to increase the length of wire as well introduced.
- the invention finds its application in all kinds of industries where conductors are to be connected, such as industries electronic and telephone.
