Definitions
- An object of the invention is to provide an improved separable connector housing, both parts of which can be formed as a unitary molding.
- a further object is to provide a connector housing having positive latching means for holding the two parts of the connector in engagement-with each other.
- a still further object of the invention is to provide a'housing having improved means for mounting on a panel or wall.
- A'still further object is to provide an electrical connector which can be mounted ends by means of integral struts in a manner such that the rearward endsof the housing units can be moved relatively towards each other upon deformation of the struts.
- this socket part of the connector assembly can be inserted partially through an opening in the panel.
- Forwardly facing abutments are provided on the oppositely facing sides of the housing units so that after partial insertion of the housing units through the panel opening, these abutments or shoulders 'will bear against the one side of the panel and prevent withdrawal thereof from the panel.
- These flexible stops each have a rearwardlyfacing surface, the plane of which is parallel to the planes of the abovementioned abutments or shoulders so that the stops are resiliently deformed and bear against the opposite side of the panel after insertion.
- the stops thus function to press the shoulders against the panel and securely lock the connector part in place.
- the mating section of the connector, the plug comprises two housing units which are spaced apart and integrally joined along their opposing sides by a strut member and which are adapted to enter the forward ends of the housing units of the socket part.
- Latch means for securing the two connector parts together after assembly is provided in the form of a pair of latch bars located between the two housing units of the plug and mounted on integral struts which extend between the housing units, the struts, the housing units, and the latch bars being formed as an integral molding.
- the latch bars At their rearward ends, the latch bars have projecting finger grip portions which extend beyond the surface of the housing while their forward ends have reversely directed hooks for engagementwith the connecting struts of the. socket portion of the assembly.
- the two parts of the connector assembly can thus be engaged with each other by merely “grasping the finger grip sections of the latching bars of the plug portion, depressing these latch bars, moving the United States Patent O "ice connector parts into engagement with each other and releasing the latch bars to permit their hooked ends to engage the strut members of the socket portion.
- FIGURE 1 is a perspective view of a connector plug and socket in accordance with the invention.
- TGURES 2 and 3 are views taken along the lines 2-2 and 3--3 of FIGURE 1.
- FIGURE 4 is a sectional view showing the plug and socket portions in engagement with each other and illustrating the function of the latching bars.
- FIGURES Sand 6 are views illustrating the manner in which the socket member is mounted in an opening in a panel or wall. 7
- the dis closed embodiment of the invention comprises a connector assembly consisting of a plug section 2 and a socket section 4, each of which sections contains a plu- 8, 8'.
- These struts are separated by an off-center slot 14 and extend only partially along the opposing walls of the forward housing sections 8, 8' so that the rearward ends of the housing sections 6, 6' can be moved relatively towards and away from each other with concomitant elastic deformation of the struts.
- the rearward sides of these struts function as shoulders for engagement by a latch arm as more fully described below.
- the sides 16,16 of the rearward sections of the housing. units which face outwardly and in opposite directions have adjacent to their extreme rearward ends, bosses 18, 18'. which define forwardly facing shoulders 19. These shoulders are adapted to bear against-one side of a panel P to which the socket section 4 is secured.
- the adjacent coplanar parallel sides 20, 20' and 21, 21' of the rearward sections are integrally joined by means of stops 24 which bridge these two members and which are integral with their remote sides 16, 16 by means of upstanding lugs or bosses 22, 22'.
- the stops 24 are preferably of a substantial width and are generally curved towards the rearward ends of the receptacle member so that they present a substantial bearing surface which is opposed indirection to the bearingsurfaces of shoulders 19. These stops are again relatively flexible so that they can be elastically deformed during use as is described below.
- the socket When it is desired to mount the socket section 4 in an opening in a panel P having a width substantially equal to or slightly greater than the distance between the sides 16, 16 the socket is aligned with the opening as indicated in FIGURE 5 and forced through the opening until the shoulders 19, 19' bear against the right hand side of the panel as viewed in FIGURES 5 and 6.
- the stop 24 will be brought to bear against the lefthand side of the panel and will be flexed after the manner of a simple beam which is fixed at both ends.
- the stops 24 will tend to bias the two housing sections apart thereby to prevent accidental or unintentional removal of the housing receptacle from the panel.
- the distance between the plane of the shoulders 19 and the face of the stop 24 is less than the thickness of the panel in which the receptacle is mounted so that after mounting, the stops will not be permitted to return to their normal condition but will rather be slightly elastically deformed and provide a continuing resilient force which both hold the shoulders 19 closely against the opposite -web and slot arrangement.
- the plug section 2 of my preferred embodiment comprises two substantially rectangular and substantially i identical housing units 26, 26 which are secured together in side-by-side relationship by means of an integral flat web 28 extending between their opposed sides.
- the two housing units 26, 26 thus form a recess within which a latch arm 3-0 is disposed.
- the location of this web is offcenter by the same amount as is the location of the slot 14, thus providing a convenient means of polarizing the two housing parts since they can be assembled in only the proper and intended manner by virtue of this off-center Latching arms 30, are contained between the opposed faces of the housing units 26, 26 adjacent to the tops and bottoms of the units and are integral with a torsionally deformable pin 34 which is also integral with the opposed sides of the housing units.
- the latch arms have inwardly directed hook portions 32 adapted to be engaged with the ends of the struts lit, 12 of the receptacle 4.
- the latch arms extend above the surfaces of the housing units and are integral with transverse finger piece sections 36. These finger piece sections extend across and bridge both of the housing units and are integral with each of the housing units at their ends.
- the disclosed embodiment of the invention is provided with cavities adapted to receive the hermaphrodite type vof contact terminal disclosed in US. Patent 2,891,103
- a salient advantage of the invention is that it achieves both positive locking of one of the connector parts, the socket 4, to the panel (by virtue of the beam action stops .24 in cooperation with the shoulders 19) and positive .locking of the plug member 2 to the socket member 4 by virtue of the latching mechanism comprising the latch Moreover these functions are achieved in a manner such that both the plug and the socket member can be made as a single integral molding of a suitable relatively firm plastic material such as a suitable nylon.
- the socket member 4 can, moreover, be mounted in panels of varying thickness and in openings of varying size.
- the second disengageable part comprises a pair of spaced-apart housing units which are complementary to and matable with said first part, a latch arm between the opposed faces of said housing units of said second part, said latch arm being integral with a resilient torsionally deformable pin extending between and integral with said opposed faces and being engageable with said strut means of said first part to secure said parts together.
- An electrical connector housing consisting of two disengageable parts, a first one of said parts comprising a pair of side-by-side spaced-apart housing units connected together at their forward ends by flexible struts integral with the opposed sides of said units, the opposite ends of said units being movable towards each other upon elastic deformation of said struts, said opposite ends having laterally extending forwardly facing shoulders on a first pair of opposite external sides of said first part, and bridges connecting the adjacent pairs of sides of said housing units of said first part, said bridges extending laterally beyond said adjacent sides and being bowed rearwardly of said first part whereby, upon insertion of said first part through an opening in a panel, said opposite ends are permitted to flex towards each other with concomitant fiexure of said bridge means, and after passage of said shoulder means through said opening, said bridge means biases said opposite ends apart and resiliently bears against said panel to retain said first part in said panel, said second part comprising a pair of spacedapart housing units which are complementary to and matable with said
