Definitions

  • the invention relates to a cable connector, in particular a multi-pole Cable connector, according to the features of the preamble of claim 1.
  • a multi-pole cable connector is known from EP 0 684 666 B1.
  • This Cable connector has a cable receiving part, in which individual strands for axial Contacting their plug-side end sections through the as contact spikes trained cable end areas are inserted. Penetrate when plugged in the contact skewers axially into the individual strands, so that the contact will be produced.
  • the invention is therefore based on the object of a cable connector at the beginning mentioned type for the connection of any configured single or multi-core stranded cable to create, in which the permanent safe contact is ensured.
  • the contact means is an insulation displacement terminal, which Cable end so fixed in the cable receiving part that it is under the connection mechanical preload.
  • an insulation displacement clamp ensures that the cable end is quick and easy, i. i.e. without much preparatory work such as Stripping in which cable receptacle can be inserted.
  • the insulation piercing clamp ensures during assembly that the outer insulation of the cable end is cut open and electrical contact is made with the core of the cable. Because the Insulation clamp fixes the cable end in the cable receiving part in such a way that it follows the electrical connection is under a permanent mechanical prestress, permanent, secure contact is also ensured, because of this Preload the cable end is always pressed in the direction of the insulation piercing or vice versa.
  • the cable connector can only be used for a single-core cable, but of course also for several individual cables as well as for a single multi-pole cable. On the Design of the cable connector (round, square or the like) does not come on.
  • the cable receiving part has a line chamber, which is larger in cross section than the cross section of the cable. For one thing thereby the cable end when inserted into the cable receptacle along the Management chamber led. At the same time, the cable end after fixing in the Cable receiving part the possibility of contacting the insulation displacement terminal move slightly, which creates the mechanical preload.
  • the Penetration or contacting area especially in the X-Y plane, is none Guide of the cable end along a defined path is required, creating a simple design of the cable receiving part and its assembly is given.
  • Another advantage is the use of cable ends of different thicknesses.
  • the cable receiving part has an adapter sleeve.
  • the adapter sleeve can either be inserted into the cable receiving part after the cable end has been inserted be used or already when inserting the cable end into the line chamber used and penetrated by the cable end.
  • the adapter sleeve is particularly mechanical fixed and thus fixes the position of the cable end with respect to the cable receiving part.
  • the clamping wedges can also be used before the cable end is inserted Barbs are designed to hold this after inserting the cable end.
  • Barbs are designed to hold this after inserting the cable end.
  • the insulation displacement clamp is in one Arranged clamp receiving means and the cutting clamp receiving means connectable to the cable receptacle.
  • the cable end can be as described above inserted and fixed in the cable receiving part, after which the Insulation displacement clamp by feeding the insulation displacement device into the lower one Penetrates the area of the line chamber and makes contact there.
  • the cable receiving part and the insulation displacement receiving means together connected (e.g. by clipping, screwing, welding, gluing or the like), so that the finished cable connector is created.
  • the insulation displacement terminal points on its side facing away from the contact area, connection means such as contact pins, Contact sockets or the like. These can be exposed or concentric be surrounded by part of the insulation displacement receptacle.
  • the line chamber tapers into its end region (Contact area).
  • a transverse arrangement of the Cable end buckling direction causes a further alignment of the cable end to the spring direction of the insulation displacement clamp is no longer required.
  • this tapering (wedge-shaped design) of the line chamber Cable ends (wires) of different diameters can be fitted. At different diameters, the tapering leads the cable end in the direction that the cable end occupies such a position that it is reliable from the insulation displacement terminal can be penetrated.
  • the line chamber has a diamond-shaped one Cross section on. This configuration of the cross section of the line chamber is ensures that the cable end on the one hand has enough space for the slightly arcuate Deformation is available, but on the other hand a centering takes place that ensures that the cable end is not so when contacting the insulation displacement terminal can recede that no contact is made.
  • the center lines of the insulation displacement and the Line chamber aligned, parallel or inclined to each other. Through the almost axial or, ideally, axial penetration of the insulation of the cable end one is created between the insulation displacement connector and the conductive core of the cable end Large, highly redundant, permanently elastic and gas-tight electrical Connection.
  • Figure 1 shows a cable connector 1 with a cable receiving part 2, in which a Cable end 3 can be inserted.
  • the cable receiving part 2 a line chamber 4 is present, the cross section (in particular diameter) is slightly larger than the diameter of the cable end 3.
  • an opening 5 slot
  • a clamping sleeve 6 is present, the one has in the axial direction (Z direction) extending wedge 7.
  • the wedge has such an extension and extension that it covers the remaining space of the Cross section of the line chamber 4, which is not filled by the cable end 3, at least partially filled in and also sufficient pressure on the Cable end 3 can exercise.
  • the cable connector 1 shown in FIG. 1 is assembled as follows:
  • the cable end 3 is threaded through the clamping sleeve 6 in the Z direction and into the Line chamber 4 of the cable receiving part 2 introduced.
  • the adapter sleeve 6 is then also merged with the upper collar of the cable receiving part 2 and locked in such a way that the clamping wedge 7 prevents the cable end 3 from retreating.
  • the wedge-shaped taper of the line chamber 4 in the Z direction causes the Tip of the cable end 3 assumes a defined position with respect to an insulation displacement terminal or the correspondingly cut cable end 3 slightly at least once in the X direction buckles, d. that is, the cable end 3 is a slightly arcuate or S-shaped Assumes design.
  • Insulation displacement means 8 arranged insulation displacement 9 in the with Cable end 3 inserted line chamber 4 introduced.
  • the free cable end 3 is first pushed back and the buckling initiated or strengthened until a complete concern of the bent areas of the cable end 3 on the walls of the line chamber 4 takes place.
  • the neutral fiber of the core of the cable end 3 deformed so that they arc the center line of the insulation piercing 9 at least once cuts.
  • the insulation displacement device 8 can be for example, part of the cable connector; it is also conceivable that the insulation displacement terminal 9 is arranged on a circuit board of an electronic circuit or protrudes from a module, the insulation displacement means 8 then PCB or the housing of the module would be.
  • the axial center line of the line chamber 4 can also be inclined to the Z or Y axis.
  • Figure 2 shows the cable connector 1 in cross section A-A according to Figure 1.
  • this Figure shows the diamond-shaped cross section of the line chamber 4, the Dimensions d and D, d. that is, the extent of the diamond-shaped line chamber 4 in the X and Y directions, are different from each other.
  • the both parameters d or D or both parameters are slightly larger than that Diameter of the cable end 3 so that it is curved in the line chamber 4 can deform when inserted.
  • a particularly advantageous case is when the line chamber 4 has the diamond-shaped shape and the equation d equals D is satisfied. This enables particularly space-saving realizations.
