Definitions

  • the invention relates to a cable connector for connection to an electrical cable with a plurality of individual lines each having insulation and an electrical conductor, according to the preamble of claim 1.
  • the invention also relates to a cable connector arrangement, having a cable connector and an electrical cable with a plurality of individual lines each having insulation and an electrical conductor, according to the preamble of claim 3.
  • a plug connector is used to produce an electrical plug connection with a complementary, further plug connector (hereinafter also referred to as mating connector).
  • a cable connector can be, for example, a plug, a coupler, or an adapter.
  • the term "cable connector" used in the context of the invention is representative of all variants.
  • a plug connector sometimes has to withstand high loads, for example mechanical loads or thermal loads. Even under adverse environmental conditions, the connectors must maintain their electrical properties within specified tolerance ranges in order to ensure permanent, interference-free signal transmission. Ensuring safety is a priority, especially in the (partially) autonomous operation of vehicles and for assistance systems.
  • the problem particularly when using the cable connector in high-frequency technology for transmission of high data rates, is that the removal of the cable sheath makes the signal path in the transition area or in the middle section of the cable connector arrangement more inductive.
  • the corresponding change in impedance can ultimately lead to unwanted reflections of the HF signal in this section, which is why the required transmission standards, especially for connectors in the automotive sector, are usually very difficult to maintain and cannot be met for any type of connector.
  • the JP 2017 091855 A relates to a cable harness made up of several individual lines with a connector for accommodating the individual lines. It is suggested that the individual lines are bundled by a common holding element before they are received in the connector.
  • the DE 43 18 800 A1 relates to a multi-pole cable connector with a distributor for routing the individual lines.
  • the present invention is therefore based on the object of providing a cable connector arrangement which has an improved impedance curve.
  • the invention is also based on the object of providing a cable connector with an improved impedance curve.
  • a cable connector arrangement having a cable connector and an electrical cable with a plurality of individual lines each having insulation and an electrical conductor.
  • the electrical cable can have at least two individual lines. However, the electrical cable can also have more than two individual lines, for example three individual lines, four individual lines, five individual lines, six individual lines, seven individual lines, eight individual lines or even more individual lines.
  • the electrical cable is preferably designed as an unshielded cable. In principle, however, a shielded electrical cable can also be provided.
  • the electrical cable can primarily be designed as a twisted pair cable, ie as a cable with twisted pairs of wires. In principle, however, the electrical cable can be of any desired design, for example also as a so-called parallel pair cable, as a coaxial cable or as some other type of cable.
  • An unshielded cable with twisted wire pairs (so-called “unshielded twisted pair (UTP) cable”) is particularly preferred.
  • the electrical conductor of the individual lines can be a single wire or a stranded wire, ie an electrical conductor consisting of thin individual wires.
  • the type of electrical conductor is not important within the scope of the invention.
  • the electrical conductors For electrical insulation of the electrical conductors of the individual lines from one another, the electrical conductors each have an enveloping insulation or a respective insulation jacket.
  • the cable connector arrangement has a front section, which is set up for connection to a corresponding mating connector, a rear section in which the individual lines are surrounded by a cable jacket, and a middle section lying in between.
  • the sections extend along the cable connector assembly, preferably along a central axis of the cable connector assembly.
  • the central axis can be, for example, a longitudinal axis of the cable connector if the cable connector is designed as a straight cable connector.
  • the central axis can also be the central axis of an angled cable connector ("angle connector"), which runs from a front interface ("interface") of the connector for connection to a corresponding mating connector to a cable outlet of the cable connector.
  • the front section adjoins the middle section and the middle section adjoins the rear section.
  • the directional information "front” refers to the side of the cable connector arrangement or the end of the cable connector of the cable connector arrangement that faces the subsequent mating connector (the “plug-side end”).
  • the term “rear” refers to a side of the cable connector assembly or the end of the cable connector of the cable connector assembly that faces the electrical cable (the “cable end”). In the following Figures 1 and 2 located the left side of the cable connector is “front” and the right side of the cable connector is “rear”.
  • the electrical conductors of two of the individual lines have a first mutual, nominal distance in the rear section and a second mutual distance in the front section, which is greater than the first distance.
  • the distance between the electrical conductors of the two individual lines increases in the middle section towards the front section.
  • the electrical cable thus still has its cable jacket in the rear section of the cable connector arrangement.
  • the cable jacket of the cable is only removed from the middle section of the cable connector arrangement. From the middle section, the individual lines of the electrical cable can thus be accessible for a single continuation.
  • Tolerances according to which the distance between the electrical conductors in the rear section or within the cable sheath deviates from a nominal value provided (e.g. by a manufacturer), are taken into account when defining the first mutual nominal distance, in particular since the The distance between the electrical conductors within the cable sheath does not usually run constant due to the tolerances over the length of the electrical cable. In particular, the minimum possible distance within the electrical cable, including tolerances, must be taken into account. The first distance can thus be the "minimum distance", for example.
  • the "minimum spacing" of the conductors within the cable sheath is to be understood in particular as the minimum spacing that results from an orthogonal distance measurement between the electrical conductors that generally run parallel through the electrical cable.
  • At least one pressing means is provided and configured in the central section in order to press at least the two individual lines together in such a way that their insulation undergoes mechanical deformation in the area of a common contact surface.
  • a particularly high data rate eg 100 Mbit/s or more
  • all individual lines of the electrical cable are preferably pressed together by the at least one pressing means.
  • impedance matching can be achieved, in particular in the middle section of the cable connector assembly, after which the impedance value in the transition area between cable and connector can be optimized.
  • a constant impedance can be ensured over the entire cable connector assembly.
  • the cable connector assembly can exhibit improved EMC performance.
  • Reflections during signal transmission can advantageously be avoided, despite the distance or pitch adjustment of the electrical conductors of the electrical cable that is usually necessary at the transition to the cable connector or in the front area.
  • the signal path, at least along the squeezing area or along the area in which the at least one pressing means presses the individual lines together is capacitive again and ideally adapted, for example to an impedance of 100 ohms.
  • the transition area or the middle section of the cable connector arrangement can be shortened from the point of view of the impedance curve.
  • the at least one pressing means is designed to press the two individual lines together in such a way that their insulation has an oval cross section.
  • the cross-section of the individual lines is circular without the influence of external forces (insulation and electrical conductors).
  • the pressing according to the invention allows the cross section of the individual lines to be deformed, starting from the (ideally) circular shape.
  • the cross section of the individual lines can also be elliptical due to the pressing.
  • a cross-section of the individual lines can result in which the ratio of width to length is 0.99 or less, for example 0.95 and less, 0.90 and less, 0.85 and less, 0.80 and less, 0.75 and smaller or even smaller.
  • the at least two individual lines can be squeezed together without mechanically damaging the insulation and/or the electrical conductors running therein.
  • the at least one pressing means is designed to press the two individual lines together in such a way that there is a third mutual distance between their electrical conductors, which is less than when the individual lines lie against one another without any force the case would be.
  • the individual lines in the area of the middle section that is influenced by the pressing means are not only guided in abutment or in close contact with one another.
  • a minimum distance between electrical conductors that merely run in contact can be further reduced by the pressing according to the invention.
  • the distance between the center points of the electrical conductors of the individual lines pressed together can preferably be smaller than when the individual lines have a minimum tolerance position (according to the manufacturer's specification).
  • the at least one pressing means is designed to press the two individual lines together in such a way that a third mutual distance results between their electrical conductors, which is smaller than the first distance.
  • the at least one pressing means is designed to press the two individual lines together in such a way that the impedance in the middle section or at least in an area of the middle section encompassed by the at least one pressing means is 85 ohms to 115 ohms, preferably 90 ohms to 110 ohms, more preferably 95 ohms to 105 ohms and most preferably 100 ohms or at least about 100 ohms and/or is matched to the impedance in the front section and in the rear section.
  • the impedance in the middle section can be adjusted by the pressing means in particular such that an impedance jump between the front section and the rear section is avoided or at least reduced.
  • the impedance in the middle section can be adjusted to match the impedance in the rear section, in the front section and/or in the electrical cable, or at least by no more than 0.1%, 0.2%, 0 .5%, 1.0%, 1.5%, 5.0%, 10.0%, 25.0% or 50.0%.
  • Automotive electrical wire and connector transmission standards typically require an impedance of 100 ohms +/- 5%. While these requirements can be met for the individual electrical cable and for the cable connector, there can be a deviation from this requirement due to the cable jacket removal in the transition area or in the middle section. Due to the impedance matching by means of the at least one pressing means, the impedance requirements can preferably also be met in the middle section.
  • the material of the at least one pressing means has a permittivity that corresponds or at least approximately corresponds to the permittivity of the cable sheath, in particular deviates from the permittivity of the cable sheath by less than 10%, preferably by less than 5 % deviates from the permittivity of the cable sheath, more preferably deviates by less than 1% from the permittivity of the cable sheath and most preferably deviates from the permittivity of the cable sheath by less than 0.5%.
