Definitions

  • the invention relates to a holding frame for connector modules according to the preamble of independent claim 1.
  • Such holding frames are used to hold connector modules, the holding frame being equipped with various connector modules and then inserted into a connector housing and screwed to it.
  • the holding frame must be mechanically stable in order to be able to withstand the plugging and pulling forces that occur when joining or disconnecting the plug connection.
  • the holding frame consists of two halves that are connected to each other via a joint. Snap-in hooks of the connector modules engage in recesses in the side surfaces of the respective half.
  • the joint or the end joints are arranged in the fastening ends of the holding frame.
  • the holding frame including the connector modules fixed in it, are installed in the connector housing.
  • the connector modules When plugging a connector with a mating connector, the connector modules should be precisely aligned with each other, otherwise the wear on the modules on the connector side is high.
  • the CN 202 084 755 U shows a holding frame, which consists of two halves, which are connected to one another via a joint.
  • the halves can be fixed in their parallel position using a lock nut. In this position, the connector modules cannot fall out of the holding frame.
  • the CN 202 084 755 U describes a holding frame which has an earthing bush, a guide element and a guide rail.
  • guide means are often provided on the connector housing.
  • guide means often do not correlate exactly with the installation position of the holding frame, so that sensitive connector modules are nevertheless subject to significant wear.
  • the object of the invention is to propose a holding frame in which the connector modules are subject to little wear during the plugging process.
  • Connector modules can be used in the holding frame according to the invention.
  • the holding frame is screwed into a connector housing after inserting the connector modules.
  • the holding frame has means for guiding, as a result of which the holding frame can be precisely aligned in the plug-in direction to form a second holding frame.
  • Both holding frames are installed in a connector housing or in a so-called mounting flange.
  • a precise alignment means that the two holding frames are parallel to each other and the frame edges or the connector modules are exactly aligned with each other. This ensures that the connector modules contained in the holding frame can be plugged together with little wear.
  • the holding frame preferably consists of two halves which can be connected to one another, a first half and a second half.
  • the two halves are connected by an articulated connection.
  • the holding frame can be brought into an open position via the joint.
  • the holding frame advantageously has a parting plane which runs parallel to the long sides of the halves.
  • the holding frame has joints with which the halves are connected to one another in an articulated manner and can be brought into an open position and a closed position.
  • the holding frame In the open position, the holding frame can be fitted with connector modules.
  • An open position means that the halves are at an angle ⁇ not equal to 180 ° to one another along the dividing line. The angle is preferably between 130 ° to 170 °. An angle between 155 ° and 165 ° has proven to be particularly advantageous. In this angular position of the halves, the connector modules can be inserted particularly easily into the holding frame.
  • the connector modules are fixed in the holding frame.
  • the halves are at an angle of approximately 180 ° or exactly 180 ° to one another. The halves are therefore essentially parallel to one another in the closed position.
  • the means for guiding consist of a guide element and a guide rail. In this way, inexpensive guidance can be realized.
  • the guide element also has fixing means with which the halves are arranged in a parallel or closed position can be fixed to each other.
  • the guide element has a double function.
  • the holding frame can be fixed together in the closed position, so that no connector modules can fall out, and at the same time, the holding frame can be used for exact guidance during the plugging process. Since such fixing means should be provided in the holding frame anyway, this variant is particularly easy to handle since no more parts are used than usual. In addition, this variant is inexpensive since no further components are added, but only a necessary component for a double function has to be redesigned.
  • the guide element preferably has a guide sleeve which can be picked up on a guide rail of the second holding frame.
  • the guide rail required for this is also attached to the holding frame.
  • two holding frames equipped with connector modules are plugged together.
  • the guide sleeve of the guide element of the first holding frame engages on the guide rail of the second holding frame and vice versa.
  • the holding frame has an earthing beech and an earthing pin.
  • the earthing pin of the first holding frame is inserted into the earthing socket of the second holding frame and vice versa. This ensures reliable and technically necessary grounding in many cases.
  • the guide rail is integrally formed on the grounding socket.
  • the Figure 1 shows two holding frames 1, 1 'filled with connector modules 19 which are plugged together.
  • the holding frames 1, 1 ' are installed in a connector housing or a mounting flange.
  • the connector housing and the mounting flange are not shown for illustrative reasons.
  • the holding frame essentially consists of two halves 4, 5, which are connected to one another via a joint.
  • the holding frame 1, 1 ' has a parting plane A which runs parallel to the long sides of the halves 4, 5.
  • the articulated connection of the holding frame 1 is in Figure 5 to see.
  • One half 5 has an articulated head 2 on the respective end faces which fits into an articulated receptacle 3 of the opposite half 4 intervenes.
  • Figure 5 the open position of the holding frame 1 is shown. In the open position, the holding frame 1 can be equipped with connector modules 19.
  • the halves 4, 5 are parallel to each other in the closed position.
  • the guide element 6 is in two different perspectives in the Figures 3 and 4 shown.
  • the guide element 6 essentially consists of a flat plane 7 from which a hook-shaped fixing element 8 protrudes on one side and a guide sleeve 9 protrudes vertically on the other side.
  • the halves 4, 5 of the holding frame 1 can be fixed to one another in the closed position via the hook-shaped fixing element 8.
  • the holding frame 1, 1 ' has an earthing socket 11 and an earthing pin 12. If two holding frames 1, 1 'are plugged together, the earthing pin 12' of one holding frame 1 'engages in the earthing socket 11 of the other holding frame 1.
  • the system of grounding bushing 11 and grounding pin 12 is itself not suitable for guiding the two holding frames 1, 1 'to one another. With a pen and socket system, there must always be some play. This game could already damage the connector modules 19 and increase wear.
  • a guide rail 13 is integrally formed on the grounding bushing 11, 11 '.
  • the guide sleeve 9 of the guide element 6 engages on the guide rail 13 when two holding frames 1, 1 'are plugged together.
  • the inner wall 10 of the guide sleeve 9 slides on the guide rail 13.
  • the connector modules 19 are contacted with low wear.
  • the connector modules 19 are pneumatic modules. Such connector modules 19 are particularly sensitive to wear if they are not exactly aligned with each other, since they have to be airtight on the plug side.
  • the holding frame 1, 1 ' is brought into an open position as described above, so that the connector modules 19 can be used. Subsequently, the frame halves 4, 5 are brought into a closed position, as described above, the holding means 20 entering the recesses 23 and causing the plug-in connector modules 19 to be held securely and positively in the holding frame 1.
