Definitions

  • the invention relates to an electrical connector assembly and a method for mating the electrical connector assembly with a mating connector.
  • crash ribs tolerance ribs
  • Elastic fingers that extend from the connector housing to the contact element or the electrical cable are intended to dampen the vibrations.
  • Resilient rubber gaskets in the plug housing, surrounding the electrical cable, are intended to hold the electrical cable against Seal out moisture and dampen the vibrations.
  • the invention is based on the object of providing an electrical connector arrangement which avoids the disadvantages of the prior art and is robust to the influence of vibrations, as well as being inexpensive to produce.
  • a fixing element is provided that is loosely attached to the contact element holder when the electrical connector is not plugged in, so that during assembly of the electrical contact element there are no problems caused by obstacles protruding into the contact chamber, and thus the assembly of the contact can be done with comparatively little force.
  • the inside of the contact chamber is slightly larger than the outer dimensions of the electrical contact element, so that it has a little play in the contact chamber and can therefore be easily inserted into it.
  • the fixing element is designed to be flexible, so that the electrical contact element can always be installed with little force, although the distance between the protruding elements is already the same size as the external dimensions of the contact element.
  • the collar of the mating connector deforms the fixing element so that projections that are attached to the fixing element in the Contact chamber protrude and press against the contact element. This eliminates the play that the contact element has in the contact chamber.
  • the contact element is now firmly held between the projections, even with strong vibrations. This minimizes wear or damage from vibration.
  • the sleeve-shaped contact element holder, the sleeve-shaped fixing element and the collar preferably have a circular or oval cross section.
  • a circular or oval structure requires relatively simple injection molding tools. Sliding on the sleeve-shaped fixing element is particularly easy with this cross-section.
  • the collar of the mating connector also has a circular or oval cross-section, so that after plugging the parts together, the parts are concentric around the electrical contact element. This design enables the development of compact electrical connector systems.
  • the inner diameter of the sleeve-shaped fixing element is particularly preferably larger than the outer diameter of the sleeve-shaped contact element holder and the outer diameter of the sleeve-shaped fixing element is smaller than the inner diameter of the collar.
  • the sleeve-shaped fixing element can preferably be flexibly deformed in the radial direction in relation to the longitudinal axis. Due to the flexible deformability, the projections can be moved flexibly in the direction of the contact element and in the opposite direction. As a result, the electrical connector can be plugged and unplugged many times be without the sleeve-shaped fixing element loses its function.
  • the wall thickness of the sleeve-shaped fixing element particularly preferably varies along the circumference of the sleeve-shaped fixing element.
  • the behavior of the sleeve-shaped fixing element with regard to its flexibility can be influenced by varying the wall thickness.
  • the sleeve-shaped fixing element is made of plastic and is manufactured using an injection molding process. Areas with thinner walls are less resistant to deformation and can, to a certain extent, be flexibly deformed.
  • the flexibility of the sleeve-shaped fixing element, in particular in the radial direction, can be adjusted by the targeted distribution of areas with high wall thickness and low wall thickness.
  • the areas of the sleeve-shaped fixing element from which the first projections and/or second projections extend preferably have a greater wall thickness.
  • a greater wall thickness makes the areas of the sleeve-shaped fixing element stiffer or less flexible.
  • the areas where protrusions are attached must transmit forces and therefore be more rigid.
  • a first projection and a second projection each extend away from each other along a common axis, opposite each other and perpendicular to the outer surface of the tubular fixing element.
  • the force which the counter-collar exerts on the first projections is transmitted in a line to the second projections. This avoids unwanted stresses or deformations within the sleeve-shaped fixing element.
  • the first projections and the second projections are particularly preferably arranged uniformly along the circumference of the sleeve-shaped fixing element. As a result of this arrangement of the projections, the sleeve-shaped fixing element is deformed uniformly along the circumference and the electrical contact element is supported uniformly along its circumference.
  • the first projections are smaller than the second projections.
  • the first projections should protrude into the free space as little as possible so as not to unnecessarily increase the overall size of the electrical connector and not to impair the function of the seal.
  • the first projections can be designed in all conceivable shapes. For example as bulges or ribs.
  • the size of the projections, which extend radially from the surface of the sleeve-shaped fixing element, corresponds approximately to the clearance of the electrical contact element in the contact element chamber.
  • the sleeve-shaped contact element holder preferably has a contact element chamber for holding the electrical contact element, the interior of the contact element chamber being free of second projections.
  • the electrical contact element can align itself in relation to a complementary electrical contact element during the process of plugging it together with the mating connector, at least at the beginning of the process. Small tolerances of the electrical connectors can be compensated for.
  • the second projections are particularly preferably designed in the form of ribs and the second openings are designed in the form of slots, with the slots extending from the free end of the sleeve-shaped contact element holder, counter to the plug-in direction.
  • This structure makes assembly particularly easy because the positioning of the sleeve-shaped fixing element is visibly predetermined by the slots and ribs. The ribs are securely guided in the slots during their movement.
  • An electrical contact element is preferably held in the sleeve-shaped contact element holder, the electrical contact element having a rectangular cross section and the sleeve-shaped contact element holder being designed to hold the electrical contact element with limited rotation to the longitudinal axis in relation to the longitudinal axis.
  • the design of the electrical contact element with a box-shaped structure is widespread in the art when the mating connector is equipped with flat blades. Only four projections are necessary to fix this version of the electrical contact element.
  • the electrical contact element preferably has four side surfaces, with each side surface of the electrical contact element being arranged opposite a second projection of the sleeve-shaped fixing element.
  • the arrangement of the projections opposite the side surfaces ensures that the holding force acts directly on the side surface.
  • projections and side surfaces are arranged so that they are at right angles to each other.
  • An annular sealing element surrounding the sleeve-shaped contact element holder, is particularly preferably arranged between the wall and the sleeve-shaped fixing element, the sleeve-shaped fixing element (40) holding the annular sealing element (400) in position.
  • the sleeve-shaped fixing element holds an annular sealing element in position with its end opposite the insertion direction.
  • the sleeve-shaped fixing element thus serves as a transport safeguard against loss of the ring-shaped sealing element.
  • the outer diameter of the sleeve-shaped fixing element is particularly preferably slightly smaller than the outer diameter of the sealing element in order not to impair the sealing effect thereof.
  • the sleeve-shaped fixing element preferably has holding arms which interact with holding openings in the sleeve-shaped contact element holder in order to hold the fixing element on the sleeve-shaped contact element holder.
  • a particularly simple way of attaching the sleeve-shaped fixing element to the sleeve-shaped contact element holder is holding arms that are introduced with holding openings in the sleeve-shaped contact element holder.
  • all conceivable snap or snap connections can be used, as far as technically possible.
