Definitions
- a connector for making solderless contact with any or all of the parallel wires in a longitudinally ridged multiple-conductor flat cable includes a close-fitting correspondingly grooved and transversely slotted base and an aligned body carrying U-shaped contact elements in line with the slots.
- This invention relates to electric-al connectors and more particularly to solderless connectors for making simultaneous permanent electrical connection with multiple conductors of a flat cable containing a number of parallel conductors within a common insulating cover.
- the present invention presents a much simpler system for establishing exact alignment between wire and connector, which is particularly effective where large numbers of closely spaced small-diameter wires are involved.
- FIGURE 1 is an exploded view of a connector and a portion of a cable in position for connective assembly
- FIGURE 2 is a plan view of a contact element blank, and FIGURES 3, 4 and 5 are side and front elevation and top plan views respectively of a contact element;
- FIGURE 6 is a partial front sectional View of an assembled connector
- FIGURE 7 is a partial end sectional yiew showing a wire-trap connector pin in position for entry;
- FIGURES 8 and 9 are lbottom and top plan views of a portion of the body member of the connector, showing the shape of the access openings for the cont-act element.
- the cable 10 As illustrated in FIGURE 1, the cable 10, of which only a terminal portion is shown, consists of two groups of closely spaced parallel Wires 11 enclosed within a plastic flexible insulating body 12 having a flat surface and an opposite ridged surface, the ridges 13 conforming to the wires.
- the end 14 of the cable is square-cut ⁇ for insertion in the connector.
- the connector is comprised of a base 15, a body 22 including contact elements 26, and -a cap 27.
- the base, body and cap are formed of plastic insulating material, a presently preferred material being Lexan No. lOl- 7004 polycarbonate resin, which is a firm, tough, resilient thermoplastic molding resin.
- the base 15 consists ⁇ of an elongate block of resin having -a flat lower surface when viewed in the position shown in FIGURE 1.
- the recessed upper cable-supporting surface is in the Iform of a series of lateral troughs or rounded grooves 19 corresponding with the ridges 13 of the cable 10.
- Deep narrow slots or channels 20 are provided in the base across the grooves.
- the ends 16 and back edge 18 extend slightly above the slotted and grooved cable-supporting surface, to a plane just slightly below the plane of the tlat surface of a cable-segment having its ridged surface pressed into close-fitting contact with the grooved surface of the base.
- Elliptically cross-sectioned pins 17 extend centrally above the ends 16.
- the forward edge of the base 15 as seen in FIGURE 1 is recessed between ends 16 to provide a smoothly contoured face 21 around which the cable may be bent if desired.
- the body 22 has parallel at upper and lower surfaces and is provided with a number of perforations or channels.
- Elliptically cross-sectioned channels 23 pass cornpletely through the body and are very slightly constricted toward their mid-points to provide a retentive force fit for pins .17.
- Circularly cross-sectioned channels 24 like- Wise pass through the ⁇ body and are centrally constricted.
- Perforations 2S as seen from the upper surface of the Ibody 22 in FIGURE 1 are generally L-shaped and are arranged in two longitudinal rows, the foot of the L being offset toward one end in the farther row and toward the other end in the nearer row.
- the form of each opening 25 is more clearly shown in FIGURE 9 to include a centrally enlarged narrow elongate slot 48 forming the foot of the L and passing entirely through the body 22, and a square-sectioned opening 51 extending only partly through the body 22 and forming the leg of the L.
- FIGURE 8 The entry to the slot 48 from the lower surface of the body 22 is shown in FIGURE 8 to include a narrow slot 49 with an enlarged central portion 50, the latter being present only as a result of reinforcing the thin and otherwise readily deformed removable mold member which defines the slot 49 during formation of the piece by injection molding, and serving no functional purpose in the connector body.
- Opening 51 is there s-hown to extend from the upper surface of the block 22 to the inner surfaces 41, 42, 43.
- a thin at cap or top member 27 tits over the top of the body 22 and is held in place by pegs 28 which are aligned with, and are forced into, the circularly crosssectioned channels 24 in the body.
- the cap 27 has two rows of perforations 29, each aligned with the squaresectioned opening 51 of a corresponding channel 25 and each being square in cross-section and diminishing from a somewhat larger opening at the upper surface to slightly smaller than the opening 51 at the lower surface, thus forming a slant-sided or funnel-like access opening.
- the contact elements 26 are best made from fiat spring brass strip or the like by stamping and folding, followed by annealing, hardening, plating, or other treatment as desired.
- a typical blank 30 is illustrated in FIGURE 2 as comprising an elongate shank 31 terminating in a bifurcate or fork-like cable-contacting section defining a narrow straight-sided open wire-receiving slot 32 between two pointed prongs 33.
- the shank 31 is widened along approximately one-half its length opposite the prongs 33 to form a shoulder 34 and at the end is further extended to form a spacer section 35 leading to a spring leaf section 36 parallel with the shank.
- the opposite upper corner of the blank is desirably removed to leave a slant edge 40 and to provide increased distance between the edge and the spacer 35 of the next adjacent element.
- the blank 30 is formed into a contact element by folding the metal along fold lines 37, 38, 39 into the shape indicated in FIGURES 3-5.
- the elements thus formed are inserted into the channels 25 in the body 22 as best illustrated in FIGURES 6 and 7.
- the prongs 33 pass through the slot-like opening 49 (FIGURE 8) and extend below the lower surface of the base, the outer edges of the prongs ⁇ being sufiiciently spaced from the end Walls of the slot to permit slight resilient separation of the prongs on forcing a wire therebetween.
- the shoulder 34 rests against the surface 42 and the lower edge of the spacer section 35 rests against the surface 41 within the channel 25, while the spring member 36 is movably suspended within the open portion of the channel.
- the element is retained within the channel 25 by the overlapping edges of the cap 27 defining the perforations 29.
- the offsetting provided by the positioning of the contact elements within the oppositely directed L-shaped channels permits contact with each of the several wire conductors of the cable while still permitting both longitudinal and transverse alignment of the access openings 29.
- the contact ⁇ elements are firmly held in position yet are permitted sufiicient resilient movement to assure completely effective electrical contact.
- the force fitting provided for the close-fitting resilient plastic pins 17, 28 assures that the connector, once assembled, will remain an essentially unitary structure.
- wire-wrap pins 44 shown as having a square cross-section shank portion 45 surmounted by a wire-Wrap section 46, usually of circular cross-section, to which a connector wire 47 may be soldered or otherwise aixed.
- the square shank portion fits snugly within the aperture 29 and the open top of the contact element, is held at a predefined depth by the inner surface 43, and is held in permanent electrical contact by the leaf spring 36.
- a connector suitable for making solderless electrical connection to conductors' of a multiple-conductor fiat cable having a longitudinally ridged surface, each ridge enclosing one of said conductors comprising: a base extending across said cable, having a laterally grooved surface conforming to the ridged surface of said cable with a groove for each ridge thereof, and slotted to provide a narrow deep slot extending across each groove; a body for interconnection with said Ibase, having parallel fiat surfaces and with open-ended perforations extending between said surfaces in line with said grooves and slots; and contact elements carried by said body in said perforations and comprising a U-shaped portion having closely spaced opposing pointed prongs extending from the perforation for making permanent electrical contact with a conductor forced therebetween, and a spring-connector portion retained within said perforation for making electrical contact with a pin connector inserted into said perforation; said base and body being further provided with interconnecting retaining means for holding the two together on a fi
