Definitions

  • the invention relates to a printed circuit board connector according to the preamble of claim 1.
  • a printed circuit board connector is made of DE 103 55 456 known.
  • This printed circuit board connector can be latched by means of locking pins or special blocks on a printed circuit board, wherein it contacts contact areas on the printed circuit board in the latched state with spring contacts. The contacting takes place in such a way with only a single terminal block. Another, board-side pin or socket strip is not required.
  • a generic printed circuit board connector is also made of US 2006/0014417 known. The attachment to the circuit board by means of screws.
  • the generic printed circuit board connector has proven itself. But he should be further developed in terms of the nature of its mounting on the circuit board and in particular with regard to the possibility of disassembly of the circuit board.
  • the locking bolt passes through the passage opening completely, wherein it engages in the locking position, the circuit board with the locking head on the side facing away from the housing.
  • the locking bolt with one of the through holes also form a bayonet closure. But even easier is the eccentric bolt, which engages behind the circuit board in the locking position with the locking head.
  • Fig. 1 shows a circuit board 1, which is arranged with arranged in a row, spaced-apart contact pads, in particular solder pads 4a, 4b, ... is provided.
  • the circuit board 1 For contacting the solder pads 4a, ... the circuit board 1 is a circuit board connector 7.
  • This PCB connector 7 is designed as a terminal block with an elongated housing 8, which is arranged in a row with terminal chambers 9a, b, c, ... in a grid is that corresponds to the grid of solder pads 4 on the circuit board.
  • connection chambers 9 are provided with connections for connecting external conductors (both not shown here, see the cited prior art). These connections can be designed per se in any connection technology such as compression spring, tension spring, screw connections, IDC contacts, etc., it being advisable to design the connections as compression spring contacts in direct plug-in technology (push-in), which are preferably arranged in metal clamping cages (not shown here).
  • connection chambers 9 are formed open on the side facing away from the printed circuit board 1 in the mounted state of the housing 8 and also to the printed circuit board 1.
  • soldering pads 4a, ... and / or contacts 10a, ... could also be provided (not shown here).
  • a positioning pin 11 is formed laterally next to the ends of the row of resilient contacts 8a, 8b projects toward the printed circuit board 1 from the housing 8 and engages in the smaller through hole 6a or 6b and supports the terminal block in addition ,
  • a locking bolt 12 rotatable on the housing about its longitudinal axis L.
  • the locking bolt 12 engages through a passage opening 13 in the housing 8 and locks the printed circuit board connector 1 to the housing Printed circuit board is formed.
  • the locking bolt 12 is advantageously formed as an eccentric bolt, which, starting from a cylindrical portion which passes through the through hole 13 and the longitudinal axis L forms the axis of rotation of the locking bolt 12, a crank pin-like, eccentric to the axis of rotation in the direction of the circuit board protruding pin portion 14, on which a locking head 15 is formed or attached, which thus adjoins the journal portion 14 and which is dimensioned and designed such that it can be pushed through the through hole 13 and then brought by a rotational movement of less than 360 ° in a locking position, in which he engages behind the remote from the PCB connector 7 side 2 of the circuit board 1.
  • the contact force can not lift the PCB connector 7 now.
  • a loosening of the PCB connector 7 is done by turning back the eccentric pin 12th
  • the printed circuit board connector 7 or the terminal can not slip when turning the eccentric pin and at the same time a miscarriage can be prevented.
  • the locking head 15 may be e.g. be provided with a bevel in the circumferential direction, so that jamming of the locking head 15 takes place at the bottom (not shown).
  • a conical shape of the locking heads 15 facilitates insertion into the through-holes 5.
  • the locking bolts 12 preferably have a shoulder contour 16 for attaching an actuating tool, in particular a screwdriver.
