La invención se refiere a una caja de conéctica del tipo que comprende una placa de base, que forma soporte para una placa de circuito impreso, y una tapa de cierre. The invention relates to a connection box of the type comprising a base plate, which forms a support for a printed circuit board, and a closure cover.
Las cajas de conéctica conocidas están realizadas en función del tipo de conector y en función de la dirección de la salida del conector. Una dirección de ese tipo puede ser paralela o perpendicular a la placa de base. The known connection boxes are made according to the type of connector and depending on the direction of the connector's output. Such an address may be parallel or perpendicular to the base plate.
De manera particular, en los autobuses o en los autocares, se utilizan cajas universales, que están conectadas con buses de multiplexado y que sirven para generar entradas/salidas. El número y la disposición de estas cajas varían en función de la personalización del vehículo requerida por el cliente de tal manera, que estas cajas pueden estar dispuestas en diversos emplazamientos en el vehículo. De conformidad con la configuración de estos emplazamientos, estas cajas deben tener conectores, cuyos contactos sean bien paralelos, bien perpendiculares a la placa de base de la caja. Por lo tanto, una instalación de cajas “a la carta” de este tipo necesita que el encargado del equipamiento del vehículo disponga de cajas de diferentes modelos en función del tipo de conector y, en particular, en función de la dirección de la salida del conector, que sea deseada para cada emplazamiento. Particularly, in buses or in coaches, universal boxes are used, which are connected to multiplexing buses and which are used to generate inputs / outputs. The number and arrangement of these boxes vary depending on the personalization of the vehicle required by the customer in such a way that these boxes can be arranged in various locations in the vehicle. In accordance with the configuration of these locations, these boxes must have connectors, whose contacts are well parallel, well perpendicular to the base plate of the box. Therefore, an installation of “a la carte” boxes of this type requires that the person in charge of the vehicle equipment have boxes of different models depending on the type of connector and, in particular, depending on the direction of the exit of the connector, as desired for each location.
Por otra parte, algunas cajas son susceptibles de quedar expuestas a proyecciones de líquido, lo que necesita cajas y conectores estancos lo que multiplica, todavía más, el número de modelos de las cajas. On the other hand, some boxes are likely to be exposed to liquid projections, which requires sealed boxes and connectors which multiplies, even more, the number of models of the boxes.

y la figura 5 es una vista en perspectiva por la parte posterior del conjunto, que está ilustrado en la figura 4. and Figure 5 is a perspective view from the rear of the assembly, which is illustrated in Figure 4.
En las figuras 1 y 2, el conjunto de conéctica, de conformidad con la invención, comprende una caja de conéctica, que está compuesta por una placa de base 1 y por dos tapas 3 y 5. In Figures 1 and 2, the connection assembly, according to the invention, comprises a connection box, which is composed of a base plate 1 and two covers 3 and 5.
La placa de base 1 tiene una forma sensiblemente rectangular. Esta placa presenta un reborde en saliente 11, que 35 delimita su contorno, con excepción de las dos esquinas 13 (solamente se ha mostrada una de ellas en la figura 1), que están contorneadas por el reborde del saliente 11. The base plate 1 has a substantially rectangular shape. This plate has a projection flange 11, which delimits its contour, with the exception of the two corners 13 (only one of them is shown in Figure 1), which are contoured by the projection flange 11.
Las esquinas 13 y un patilla 14 presentan aberturas pasantes 15, que permiten fijar la caja, por atornillado o por cualquier otro medio equivalente, sobre un dispositivo (no representado) destinado a soportar dicha caja.

La placa 1 presenta, por último, un abultamiento o tabique 21, que se presenta en forma de una moldura o de una nervadura, que sobresale de la superficie de la placa por el mismo lado que el reborde 11 y sobre la misma altura que este reborde. Este tabique 21 atraviesa la placa de lado a lado uniendo dos bordes opuestos del reborde 11. The plate 1 has, finally, a bulge or partition 21, which is presented in the form of a molding or a rib, which protrudes from the surface of the plate on the same side as the flange 11 and on the same height as this flange. This partition 21 crosses the plate from side to side joining two opposite edges of the flange 11.
De este modo, el tabique delimita una primera zona 23, que está destinada a alojar a los circuitos electrónicos de una placa de circuito impreso 7, siendo denominada esta primera zona primera zona dedicada a la electrónica y una segunda zona 25 destinada a alojar a los conectores que están fijados a la placa de circuito impreso a lo largo de uno de sus bordes, siendo denominada esta segunda zona segunda zona dedicada a la conéctica. La placa de circuito impreso 7 es fijada a la altura deseada en la caja 1 con ayuda de medios convencionales que no han sido representados para clarificar el dibujo. In this way, the partition defines a first zone 23, which is intended to house the electronic circuits of a printed circuit board 7, this first zone being designated as the first zone dedicated to electronics and a second zone 25 destined to accommodate the connectors that are attached to the printed circuit board along one of its edges, this second zone being called the second zone dedicated to the connection. The printed circuit board 7 is set at the desired height in the box 1 with the help of conventional means that have not been represented to clarify the drawing.
La palca de base 1 está realizada de metal, por moldeo de una sola pieza. The base plate 1 is made of metal, by molding one piece.
La tapa 3 tiene como función cerrar y aislara la parte electrónica de la placa del circuito impreso 7 (no representada). De este modo, la tapa 3 presenta un borde 31, cuyo contorno es complementario del que está definido en conjunto por una parte del reborde 11 y por el tabique 21 de la placa de base 1, que delimita la zona 23 dedicada a la electrónica. The cover 3 has the function of closing and isolating the electronic part of the printed circuit board 7 (not shown). Thus, the cover 3 has an edge 31, the contour of which is complementary to that which is defined as a whole by a part of the flange 11 and by the partition 21 of the base plate 1, which delimits the area 23 dedicated to electronics.
De manera en sí conocida por el técnico en la materia, la tapa 3 presenta estrías o aletas 33, que forman radiadores y que favorecen la refrigeración de los circuitos, y está equipada con un tapón 35 de tipo “pastilla con córtex para imán” que permite evitar a condensación en la caja. In a manner known per se to the person skilled in the art, the cover 3 has striations or fins 33, which form radiators and favor the cooling of the circuits, and is equipped with a plug 35 of the type "bar with magnet bark" which allows to avoid condensation in the box.
De igual modo, la tapa 3 comprende medios de alojamiento y de fijación de los tornillos 20, que atraviesan la placa de base 1. Con objeto de simplificar la lectura de la figura 1, tales medios no han sido representados. Sin embargo, dichos medios son conocidos por el técnico en la materia. Estos medios consisten, por ejemplo, en orificios ciegos aterrajados, que están realizados en la tapa 3. Similarly, the cover 3 comprises means for housing and fixing the screws 20, which pass through the base plate 1. In order to simplify the reading of Figure 1, such means have not been shown. However, said means are known to the person skilled in the art. These means consist, for example, of terraced blind holes, which are made in the cover 3.
Igual que ocurre en el caso de la placa de base 1, la tapa 3 está realizada en una sola pieza metálica moldeada. As in the case of the base plate 1, the cover 3 is made of a single molded metal part.
De igual modo, la caja de conéctica, que está ilustrada en las figuras 1 y 2, comprende dos juntas de estanqueidad 37 y 39, que están realizadas en materia elásticamente deformable y estanca a los líquidos, del tipo caucho o silicona. Similarly, the connection box, which is illustrated in Figures 1 and 2, comprises two gaskets 37 and 39, which are made of elastically deformable and liquid-tight material, of the rubber or silicone type.
La junta 37 forma un bucle sensiblemente rectangular, de perfil (es decir de longitud y de proporciones) sensiblemente idéntico al del borde de la tapa 3 para adaptar la forma del contorno. La junta 37 está destinada a ser aplicada contra el reborde 11 del tabique 21 y presenta sobre tres lados una sección en forma de U de tal manera que puede alojar a la extremidad del borde 31 de la tapa 3 sobre tres de sus lados. Sobre su cuarto lado, que está destinado a ser apretado entre el tabique 21 y la cara inferior de la placa de circuito impreso 7, que está dirigida hacia la placa de base 1. La junta 37 es preferentemente plana y tiene una menor altura que la de los otros tres lados con sección en forma de U. The gasket 37 forms a substantially rectangular loop, of profile (i.e. length and proportions) substantially identical to that of the edge of the lid 3 to adapt the contour shape. The gasket 37 is intended to be applied against the flange 11 of the partition 21 and has a U-shaped section on three sides so that it can accommodate the end of the edge 31 of the cover 3 on three of its sides. On its fourth side, which is intended to be pressed between the partition 21 and the underside of the printed circuit board 7, which is directed towards the base plate 1. The gasket 37 is preferably flat and has a lower height than the of the other three sides with a U-shaped section.
Sobre la vista despiezada de la figura 1, ha sido representada la junta 37 como si estuviese situada por encima de la placa de circuito impreso 7, con objeto de ilustrar con claridad las secciones en forma de U y plana de la junta 37 así como la complementariedad de su contorno con el de la tapa 3. Sin embargo, debe entenderse que, en la posición ensamblada de la caja, la junta 37 está aplicada sobre sus tres lados con sección en forma de U contra el reborde 11 y que su cuarto lado, de sección plana, está intercalado entre el tabique 21 y la placa de circuito impreso 7. La misma observación es aplicable con relación a la representación de la figura 3. On the exploded view of Figure 1, the gasket 37 has been represented as if it were located above the printed circuit board 7, in order to clearly illustrate the U-shaped and flat sections of the gasket 37 as well as the complementarity of its contour with that of the cover 3. However, it should be understood that, in the assembled position of the box, the gasket 37 is applied on its three sides with a U-shaped section against the flange 11 and that its fourth side , of flat section, it is inserted between the partition 21 and the printed circuit board 7. The same observation is applicable in relation to the representation of figure 3.
La junta 39 tiene forma rectilínea y presenta una longitud al menos igual a la anchura del tabique 21, con le fin de superponerse de manera preferente en cada una de sus dos extremidades a la junta 37, con objeto de asegurar una continuidad de la estanqueidad alrededor de la primera zona 23. De manera preferente, el cuarto lado 36 de la tapa 3, que está destinado a situarse a la altura del tabique 21, está escotado sobre una longitud complementaria a la de la junta 39 y es apto para ser recibido en la abertura de la U. la junta 39 puede ser aplastada de este modo entre el reborde 36 y la cara superior de la placa de circuito impreso 7, que está dirigida hacia la tapa 3. The joint 39 has a rectilinear shape and has a length at least equal to the width of the partition 21, in order to preferentially superimpose on each of its two extremities the joint 37, in order to ensure a continuity of the seal around of the first zone 23. Preferably, the fourth side 36 of the cover 3, which is intended to be located at the height of the partition 21, is lowered over a length complementary to that of the joint 39 and is suitable to be received in the opening of the U. the gasket 39 can thus be crushed between the flange 36 and the upper face of the printed circuit board 7, which is directed towards the cover 3.
La altura de la junta 39, la de la junta 37 tanto sobre sus tres lados de con sección en forma de U como sobre su cuarto lado, y la distancia entre el tabique 21 y el borde escotado 36 de la tapa 3, se eligen en función del espesor de la placa de circuito impreso 7 con el fin de asegurar un apriete sensiblemente uniforme de la tapa 3 contra las juntas 37 y 39 en la posición ensamblada de la caja. The height of the gasket 39, that of the gasket 37 both on its three sides with a U-shaped section and on its fourth side, and the distance between the partition 21 and the cut edge 36 of the lid 3, are chosen in function of the thickness of the printed circuit board 7 in order to ensure a substantially uniform tightening of the cover 3 against the seals 37 and 39 in the assembled position of the box.
De ese modo, cuando la tapa 3 está fijada sobre la placa de base 1, una parte de la placa de circuito impreso 7, que presenta principalmente los circuitos electrónicos, está totalmente encerrada de manera estanca entre la tapa 3 y la placa de base 1 merced a la presencia de las juntas 37 y 39. Estas juntas 37 y 39 aseguran una doble estanqueidad, Thus, when the cover 3 is fixed on the base plate 1, a part of the printed circuit board 7, which mainly presents the electronic circuits, is completely enclosed tightly between the cover 3 and the base plate 1 thanks to the presence of gaskets 37 and 39. These gaskets 37 and 39 ensure double sealing,
