Definitions
- Clip contact element for a printed circuit board and method for its production
- the present invention relates to a clip contact element for a printed circuit board and a connection arrangement with a printed circuit board, which has at least one recess, and at least one contact arrangement, which is arranged in one of the at least one outputs. Finally, the present invention relates to a method for producing a clip contact element.
- Printed circuit boards with a plurality of contact arrangements which are to be introduced into corresponding recesses in the circuit board, are known for example from the publication US 2004/0192086 A1.
- a plurality of plug contacts is arranged in a plug housing.
- the plug contacts are held in a housing wall and have an eyelet area which is to be inserted into corresponding bores in the printed circuit board.
- only tight-fitting contacts are introduced in the holes into which the plug contacts are inserted.
- From document WO 2005/079127 A1 an electrical assembly with an electrically conductive contact pin for pressing into an opening of a circuit board is known.
- the opening in the circuit board has predetermined dimensions, and the contact pin has a defined excess for forming a press connection.
- the inserted length of the contact pin is greater than the depth of the PCB opening.
- the inserted contact pin sits with an edge region on the circuit board and contacted in a Anpress Scheme the contact zone lying there, which is preferably gas-tight cold-welded. On an opposite side of the contact pin can be soldered to the local contact zone.
- a contactor for a printed circuit board having a contact core body, extending from the contact core body of at least twodistinsschrägenimplantation and at least two contact lip elements, and wherein the contact core body has at least one conductor contact portion.
- connection arrangement with a printed circuit board, which has at least one recess, and at least one contact arrangement provided, which is arranged in one of the at least one recess, wherein each contact arrangement comprises a clip contact element according to the first aspect of the invention or one of its embodiments and a plug contact unit, wherein the clip contact element is removably insertable into a respective recess of the circuit board, and wherein each plug contact unit removably insertable into a clip contact element of the corresponding contact arrangement.
- the advantages are provided that little space is occupied by the Klippessorelements, which is substantially completely inserted into the circuit board or its recess. Since the clip contact element sits in the circuit board, a height above the circuit board is extremely low. Furthermore, the clip contact element is removable from the circuit board. This makes the entire connection arrangement solvable again. Furthermore, this also allows, inter alia, for example, a coding between the clip contact element and the plug contact unit to vary. Coding is to be understood here as meaning that the clip contact element can be arranged in the recess in a desired orientation, which allows the insertion of the plug contact element only in a specific orientation. In this way, an assembly aid can be provided which allows only a mounting of the plug-in contact unit in the circuit board in a single specific orientation.
- the plug contact unit can be designed in various ways.
- the plug-in contact unit may be a blade contact or a pin contact.
- other shapes may be provided.
- a recess of the circuit board may be formed as a bore with a circular cross-section. But there are basically other configurations of the recess, such as square cross-sections or the like, possible. A corresponding outer circumference of the clip contact element can then be designed with a corresponding shape.
- a method of manufacturing a clip contact element according to the first aspect or one of its aspects is further provided.
- the method comprises the steps of providing a foil of at least one metal, punching a clip contact element blank out of the foil, the clip contact element blank having the contact core body having at least two guide slope elements and the at least two contact lip elements, forming the at least one conductor contact section in the contact core body at least two contact lip elements and the at least two guide bevel elements, and ultimately the bending of the Klippessorelementrohlings in a substantially hollow cylindrical shape.
- this method can be provided by means of cold forming on a metal foil in a particularly simple manner, the clip contact element. This allows the manufacture of the clip contact element in a simple and therefore cost-effective manner in large numbers.
- the contact core body has substantially the shape of a hollow cylinder, and wherein the at least two guide bevel elements and the at least two contact lip elements are arranged alternately distributed over a circumference of the contact core body.
- a hollow cylinder may have any desired cross-sectional shape.
- This cross-sectional shape may be circular, oval or even angular, for example triangular, square or n-shaped. Due to the configuration of a hollow cylinder and the two guide bevel elements integrally formed on the hollow cylinder, a simple insertion of the clip contact element into the printed circuit board is possible. The clip contact element thus disappears almost completely in the recess of the printed circuit board, and a plug contact unit can be inserted into the hollow interior of the clip contact element. That way, one becomes particularly low structural design of the clip contact element and thus also the corresponding connection arrangement possible.
- the clip contact element in a further embodiment of the clip contact element can be provided that two guide bevel elements and two contact lip elements are provided, wherein the two guide bevel elements facing each other and the two contact lip elements face each other.
- this embodiment is particularly suitable for receiving plug contacts formed as a blade contact. These can be well held by two contact lip elements.

- the hollow cylinder has any desired cross-sectional shape. This in turn can be circular, oval, or even angular, for example, triangular or square or n-square executed.
- pin contacts or plug-in contact units with other cross-sectional shapes that require more than two contact lip elements record.
- at least two contact lip elements extend from a cylinder jacket inwardly and thus can be punched out and bent out of the material of the cylinder jacket, it is particularly possible to arrange the contact lip elements and the guide bevel elements in the longitudinal direction of the clip contact element substantially in alignment. There is thus no alternate arrangement of contact lip elements and guide ramp elements distributed over the circumference. In this way, the number of contact lip elements and the guide bevel elements can be increased.
- This embodiment makes it possible, as already stated above, for example, record as plug contacts formed plug contact units and to contact them on four sides by means of the contact lip elements. In this way, such shaped plug contact units can be securely held in the clip contact element.
- the clip contact element has at least one extending through a guide bevel element and at least partially through the contact core body slot recess.
- the at least one slot recess allows the contact core body yield and produce a metered and uniform pressure force, which ensures a conductive contact by means of the contact portions and holds the clip contact firmly in the recess of the circuit board.
- the clip contact element can still pull out of the circuit board again.
- a tight fit and a good contact can be achieved in that a diameter of the clip contact element is greater than a diameter of a corresponding recess of the circuit board.
- the diameter of the clip contact element may for example be 0.1% to 20% larger than the diameter of a corresponding recess of the printed circuit board. In other words, it can be so much larger that, for example, a contact force of 5 N (Newton) to 15 N is generated.
- the contact force can also be less than 5 N or more than 15 N.
- a height of the clip contact element substantially corresponds to a height of the circuit board.

- a number of guide bevel elements may be designed. In principle, two or more, that is to say two, three, four, five, six to n guide bevel elements can be provided in all configurations of the clip contact element.
- the number of guide bevel elements may be related to the number of contact lip elements. In particular, it can be provided that the number of guide bevel elements corresponds to the number of contact lip elements.
- the conductor contact portions are formed as substantially round punched or protrusions outward from the contact core body.
- other embodiments such as conductor ring contact elements or the like, may be formed.
- the conductor contact portions may be uniformly formed over the circumference of the contact core body. This ensures a particularly good conductive connection.
- the contact core body has more than two conductor contact portions which are arranged uniformly over a circumference of the contact core body.
- the clip contact element in a further embodiment of the clip contact element can be provided that the clip contact element is integrally formed. Furthermore, it can be provided in one embodiment that the clip contact element is formed from at least one metal.
- the one-piece design facilitates in particular the mounting of the clip contact element.

- the clip contact element can be pressed with a mounting force in the corresponding recess of the circuit board.
- the mounting force can be adapted to the size of the clip contact element. It may for example be a contact core body for a recess in a printed circuit board with a diameter of 4 mm, for example between 50 N and 150 N. In particular, the installation force may depend on the specific conditions of use.
- the clip contact element may be made of at least one metal.
