Description
Die Erfindung geht aus von einem Direktsteckverbinder zur elektrischen Direktkontaktierung von Kontaktflächen auf einer Leiterplatte nach der Gattung des Anspruchs 1.The invention is based on a direct plug connector for the direct electrical contacting of contact surfaces on a printed circuit board according to the preamble of claim 1.
Bekannt sind Steuergeräte, die im Fahrzeug auf verschiedene Art und Weise befestigt werden und auf die dann die Steckverbindungen (Kabelbaumstecker) aufgesteckt werden. Die Steuergeräte bestehen meist aus einer Leiterplatte, auf der elektronische Bauelemente platziert sind, und einem Gehäuse. In Motorsteuergeräten wird auf die Leiterplatte üblicherweise eine Messerleiste montiert, um die elektrische Verbindung zwischen einem Kabelbaumstecker und der Leiterplatte herzustellen. Die Messerleiste stellt somit ein zusätzliches Bauteil bei der Montage des Steuergerätes dar. Es sind auch so genannte Direktsteckverbindungen bekannt, bei denen die Messerleiste entfällt und die einzelnen Pole des Kabelbaumes direkt auf der Leiterplatte kontaktiert werden. Dazu sind auf der Leiterplatte elektrische Kontaktflächen ("Kontaktlands") vorgesehen, die durch Kontaktelemente des Direktsteckverbinders kontaktiert werden.Are known control devices that are mounted in the vehicle in various ways and then on the connectors (harness connector) are plugged. The control devices usually consist of a printed circuit board on which electronic components are placed, and a housing. In motor control devices, a male connector is usually mounted on the circuit board to make the electrical connection between a harness connector and the circuit board. The male connector thus represents an additional component in the assembly of the control unit. There are also so-called direct connectors are known in which the male connector is omitted and the individual poles of the wiring harness are contacted directly on the circuit board. For this purpose, electrical contact surfaces ("Kontaktlands") are provided on the circuit board, which are contacted by contact elements of the direct connector.
Demgegenüber ist es die Aufgabe der Erfindung, bei einem Direktsteckverbinder der eingangs genannten Art das Rastermaß weiter zu reduzieren.In contrast, it is the object of the invention to further reduce the pitch in a direct connector of the type mentioned.
Die Aufgabe wird erfindungsgemäß durch einen Direktsteckverbinder mit den Merkmalen von Anspruch 1 gelöst.The object is achieved by a direct connector with the features of claim 1.
Erfindungsgemäß sind die sich an die abisolierten Kabelenden anschließenden isolierten Kabelenden der Anschlusskabel jeweils benachbarter Kontaktelemente nicht in der gleichen Ebene, sondern jeweils zueinander mit gegenseitiger Überlappung höhenversetzt angeordnet. Die Überlappung ist dabei kleiner als die doppelte Wandstärke der Isolationsummantelung der Anschlusskabel gewählt, damit sich benachbarte abisolierte Kabelenden nicht berühren. So ergibt sich im oben genannten Beispielfall für ein Anschlusskabel mit einem Kabelaußendurchmesser von 1,3mm, für ein Kontaktelement mit einer Kontaktbreite von 1,1mm, für ein Steckverbindergehäuse mit 0,3mm starken Kammertrennwänden und bei einem Spiel von 0,1mm ein Rastermaß von nur 1,5mm, also eine Reduktion des Rastermaßes um ca. 10% bzw. um ca. 0,2mm pro Pol.According to the invention, the insulated cable ends of the connection cables, which adjoin the stripped cable ends, of adjacent contact elements are not arranged in the same plane, but offset in height with respect to one another with mutual overlap. The overlap is chosen smaller than twice the wall thickness of the insulation sheath of the connection cable, so that adjacent stripped cable ends do not touch. Thus, in the example given above for a connection cable with a cable outer diameter of 1.3mm, for a contact element with a contact width of 1.1mm, for a connector housing with 0.3mm thick chamber partitions and at a game of 0.1mm a pitch of only 1.5mm, so a reduction of the grid size by about 10% or by about 0.2mm per pole.
