Abstract

The connector has a housing with a partly opened lower part (5) and a cover (6) for an exterior closure, where the lower part is attached at a disk of a motor vehicle. The lower part exhibits circulating lower and exterior upper edges (8, 9). A water sealed double sided adhesive tape is provided on the edges, and has a protective film on outwardly opened adhesive tape side. A connection region water-tightly leads through over the housing, so that the electrically conductive connected solder region is designed as a solder dump that projects over a partly opened region of the lower part. An independent claim is also included for a method of manufacturing a motor vehicle that is provided with an electrical device such as heating panel and antenna.

Description

Die Erfindung betrifft einen gattungsgemässen elektrischen Anschluss nach dem Oberbegriff des Hauptanspruchs, also einen elektrischer Anschluss für an Scheiben von Kraftfahrzeugen vorgesehenen elektrischen Einrichtungen wie Heizfelder, Antennen oder dergleichen, mit einem auf die Scheibe aufzulötenden Anlötbereich und einem damit elektrisch leitend verbundenen Anschlussbereich. Die Erfindung betrifft ferner ein gattungsgemässes Verfahren zur Herstellung eines mit der Scheibe eines Kraftfahrzeugs, die mit elektrischen Einrichtungen wie Heizfeldern, Antennen oder dergleichen versehen ist, fest verbundenen Anschlusses aus einem vormontierten elektrischen, gattungsgemässen Anschluss. Ein solcher Anschluss ist aus dem Dokument DE-A-10147908 bekannt.The invention relates to a generic electrical connection according to the preamble of the main claim, that is, an electrical connection for provided for windows of motor vehicles electrical equipment such as heaters, antennas or the like, with a auflötten to the disc Anlötbereich and thus electrically connected connection area. The invention further relates to a generic method for producing a with the disc of a motor vehicle, which is provided with electrical devices such as heating fields, antennas or the like, permanently connected terminal from a pre-assembled electrical, generic connection. Such a connection is from the document DE-A-10147908 known.

Scheiben von Kraftfahrzeugen weisen heute eine Vielzahl von zusätzlichen elektrischen Einrichtungen, wie eine Antenne, eine Scheibenheizung und dergleichen auf. Vor der Montage der Scheibe im Kraftfahrzeug werden die elektrischen Anschlüsse angebracht. Dies geschieht dadurch, dass schon ein mit Lötzinn versehenes Lötpad auf die Kontaktfläche der Scheibe aufgesetzt und danach aufgeheizt wird, wodurch das Lötzinn schmilzt und sich mit der Kontaktfläche auf der Scheibe verbindet. Ausserdem muss dann ein gehäuse auf diesen Bereich aufgesetzt und nachträglich gegen Eindringen von Wasser mittels Aufbringen von einem Heissiegelkleber abgedichtet werden.Automotive windows today have a variety of additional electrical equipment such as an antenna, a window heater and the like. Before mounting the disc in the motor vehicle, the electrical connections are made. This happens because already provided with solder solder pad is placed on the contact surface of the disc and then heated, causing the solder melts and with the Contact surface on the disc connects. In addition, then a housing must be placed on this area and subsequently sealed against ingress of water by applying a hot-seal adhesive.

Das Anbringen des Gehäuses sowie dessen elektrischer Anschluss ist aufwändig sowie das nachträgliche Abdichten gegen das Eindringen von Wasser z.B. mittels eines Heisssiegelklebers umständlich.The attachment of the housing and its electrical connection is complex and the subsequent sealing against the ingress of water, e.g. cumbersome with a hot-seal adhesive.

Der Erfindung liegt deshalb die Aufgabe zugrunde, einen elektrischer Anschluss sowie ein Verfahren zu dessen Anbringung an der Scheibe von Kraftfahrzeugen vorzuschlagen, das weniger aufwändig und umständlich ist.The invention is therefore based on the object to propose an electrical connection and a method for its attachment to the window of motor vehicles, which is less complicated and cumbersome.

Diese Aufgabe wird bei einem gattungsgemässen elektrischen Anschluss nach dem Oberbegriff des Sach-Hauptanspruchs 1 erfindungsgemäss durch dessen kennzeichnende Merkmale gelöst. Bei einem gattungsgemässen Verfahren laut Anspruch 6 wird die Aufgabe dadurch gelöst, dass zunächst die auf das untere doppelseitige Klebeband geklebte untere Schutzfolie entfernt wird, danach das vormontierte Gehäuse auf die Scheibe an einer Kontaktfläche mit dem Lötzinndepot angedrückt und damit festgeklebt wird, anschliessend der oder die Lötzinnträger und/oder das Lötzinndepot unter Aufschmelzen des Lötzinndepots erwärmt wird (werden), und schliesslich die auf das obere doppelseitige Klebeband geklebte obere Schutzfolie entfernt und auf das Gehäuse der Deckel aufgesetzt wird.This object is achieved according to the invention in a generic electrical connection according to the preamble of the subject-main claim 1 by its characterizing features. In a generic method according to claim 6, the object is achieved in that first adhered to the bottom double-sided adhesive tape lower protective film is removed, then the preassembled housing is pressed onto the disc at a contact surface with the solder deposit and thus adhered, then the or Soldering tin holder and / or the soldering tin deposit is heated with melting of the solder deposit, and finally the upper protective film glued onto the upper double-sided adhesive tape is removed and the lid is placed on the housing.

Erfindungsgemäss wird also die lagegenaue Positionierung des Anschlusses mit dem Lötzinndepot an der Kontaktstelle der Scheibe sowie das Anlöten auf das Glas der Scheibe und die wasserdichte Abschirmung in einem Arbeitsgang bewirkt.According to the invention, therefore, the positionally accurate positioning of the terminal with the solder deposit at the contact point of the disc and the soldering to the glass of the disc and the waterproof shield is effected in one operation.
