Definitions
- the present invention relates to a connector forming a surface mount component.
- CMS surface mount component
- the outer conductive elements may consist of tabs, pins, circuit boards, printed matter or other conductive substrates that may come from different directions.
- Such a connector is known for example from the document WO 00/07263 .
- the latter includes a flat base intended to be fixed on a substrate, at least two elastic tabs connected to the base, located above the latter, and intended to form between them a clamping position for a conductive element, at least one opening being provided in the base, arranged for the passage of a conductive element intended to be clamped between the elastic tabs, a gripping area by a suction nozzle formed by a portion of the flat base accessible from above the connector.
- the object of the present invention is to provide a connector whose design is adapted to the automatic cycle of gripping / placement / reflow soldering of CMS assembly lines at high speeds.
- the invention relates to a connector of the aforementioned type, characterized in that the gripping zone is located between the elastic tabs, centrally relative to the base of the connector, each opening being located laterally with respect to the zone grasping.
- This arrangement makes it possible to meet the constraints of the operations of placement of the connectors by nozzles at a high rate. Indeed; when handling the nozzles, these can be subjected to rotational movements with significant accelerations: it is appropriate in these conditions that the mass of the connector is distributed in a balanced manner around the axis of rotation, which corresponds to the axis of the nozzle.
- At least one recess is formed in at least one elastic tab, allowing access of a suction nozzle to the gripping zone.
- This arrangement allows access to the gripping zone from above the connector, while maintaining lateral dimensions of the connector and a spacing limited elastic tabs.
- two lateral flanks connect the base to the two elastic tabs, the two resilient tabs converging towards the base from the upper parts of the flanks, in the direction of the clamping location.
- the elastic tabs are folded towards the base inside the two sides with an angle that brings the two walls closer to the elastic tabs vis-à-vis and allows their bending to ensure quality contacts over a large range of thicknesses of male conductive elements.
- the inner walls of the resilient tabs facing the clamping location have diverging lateral edges forming a lateral flare of the clamping position towards the outside of the connector.
- This arrangement facilitates the lateral entry of a conductive element of the male contact type. Moreover, the realization of this edge over a sufficient height and width at least partially closes the lateral tunnel formed between each elastic tab, the side to which it is attached and the base, thus reducing the risk of entanglement of the connectors in a vibrating bowl. .
- the inner walls of the resilient tabs facing the clamping location have diverging lower edges, forming a flare towards the base of the clamping location.
- This flare makes it easier to introduce a conductive element of the male contact type from below the contactor, through an opening in the base.
- the recess extends to the lower edge of the elastic tab, separating it into two elastic portions.
- This arrangement allows to provide two separate clamping locations to accommodate two separate conductive elements, male contact type, simultaneously.
- the connector comprises at least one centering notch on the base or near it.
- the centering notches allow the connector to be positioned on the substrate or with respect to a suction nozzle by using positioning pins intended to penetrate at least partially into the centering notches.
- a CMS connector 2 is made in one piece. It comprises a flat rectangular base 3 intended to be fixed on a substrate 4, two lateral flanks 5 extending substantially perpendicular to the base 3, above the base 3, from two opposite sides of the base 3. From the upper ends of the two sides 5 extend two oblique and convergent downwardly flexible tabs 6 intended to form between them a clamping position 7 for a conductive element 8.
- the inner walls of the resilient tabs 6 facing the clamping location 7 have diverging lateral edges 9 forming a lateral flare of the clamping position 7 towards the outside of the connector 2, seen in section along a plane parallel to the base 3. These inner walls also have diverging lower edges 10 forming a downward flare, from the clamping location 7, seen in section along a plane perpendicular to the base 3.
- the base 3 has lateral openings 12 made by cutting to allow the passage of a conductive element 8 entering from below, through a piercing of the substrate and intended to be clamped between the two elastic tabs 6, at the level of the clamping location 7, as shown in FIG. figure 4 .
- These openings 12 open on the two lateral edges of the base 3.
- the center of the base 3 of the connector between the lateral openings 9 constitutes a grip zone 13 by suction.
- the gripping zone is accessible by a suction nozzle 14 from above the connector, between the elastic tabs 6.
- recesses 15 are formed in the elastic tabs 6, allowing access to a suction nozzle 14 to the gripping zone 13 from above the connector 2 with sufficient clearance, as shown in FIG. figure 3 .
- the recesses 15 extend to the free end of the elastic tabs 6, separating the latter in two independent elastic parts.
- the two lateral flanks 5 of the connector 16 having centering notches 17 formed near the base, made by cutting.
- the notches have a triangular profile, particularly suitable for centering. These notches 17 are arranged symmetrically with respect to the base 3.
- a connector 18 comprises the same elements as in the first embodiment, with the exception of the lateral flare of the clamping location.
- a connector 19 comprises the same elements as in the third embodiment, with the exception that the recesses 20 do not intersect the lower edge 10 of the elastic tabs 6.
- the dimensions of these recesses are variable depending on the ranges of FIG. intensity required and thicknesses of the male contacts.
- a connector 22 comprises the same elements as in the third embodiment except that it does not include recesses in the elastic tabs. This is a connector for thicker male-type conductor elements than those used with the first four embodiments of the connector.
- a connector 23 comprises the same elements as in the fifth embodiment, the sidewalls 5 however having concave lateral edges 24, so as to form a narrowing thereof at their central zone.
- Such narrowing 24 promotes the elasticity of the sidewalls 5 and, therefore, elastic tabs 6 attached thereto.
- the connector is constituted by a cut piece and folded according to a cycle of successive operations to obtain the necessary angles.
- the contact surface of the connector 2, by the base 3, with the substrate 4 is important and guarantees a robust weld and the stability of the connector 2 on the substrate.
- the supply of the contacts in the automatic gripping position by the nozzles 14 is done by a specific tool placed instead of a supply by a component distributor, this tool being fed by a vibrating bowl.
- a specific tool placed instead of a supply by a component distributor, this tool being fed by a vibrating bowl.
- Several specific tools can be mounted to increase CMS reporting rates.
- the components can be striped for SMD components at an extra cost.
- the material of these contacts can vary according to the applications, it can be for example strip-tinned bronze, in conformity with the standards of reduction of the dangerous substances.
- the tinned finish is suitable for reflow soldering.
