Abstract

In the pressure connector for making contact with printed-circuit boards, an insulating material frame surrounding the contact strips is seated on said contact strips. When the frame is located in a front, first position, an edge of a printed-circuit board can be inserted between the contact strips without hindrance. At the same time, the printed-circuit board grips the frame and moves it into a second position, in which the frame presses the contact strips against contact surfaces of the printed-circuit board.

Description

Die Erfindung bezieht sich auf einen Steckverbinder mit einer Vielzahl von Kontaktelementen, die in einem Isolierstoffkörper fixiert sind und auf einer Seite des Körpers zwei Reihen von zueinander parallel ausgerichteten Kontaktstreifen bilden, und mit einer Vorrichtung, um die Streifen der einen Reihe gegen die Streifen der anderen Reihe zu bewegen, sowie mit einer Leiterplatte, die entlang einem Leiterplattenrand den Streifen zugeordnete Kontaktflächen aufweist und mit diesem Rand zwischen die Kontaktstreifenreihen einschiebbar ist.The invention relates to a connector having a plurality of contact elements which are fixed in an insulating body and form two rows of parallel contact strips on one side of the body, and with a device for the strips of one row against the strips of the other Moving row, as well as with a circuit board that has contact surfaces assigned to the strips along a circuit board edge and can be inserted with this edge between the rows of contact strips.

Ein solcher Steckverbinder ist beispielsweise aus der DE 16 65 802 A1 bekannt. Ein solcher Steckverbinder ermöglicht es beim sogenannten direkten Stecken von Leiterplatten den mit Kontaktflächen belegten Rand einer Leiterplatte kräftefrei zwischen Kontaktstreifen des Steckverbinders einzuschieben. Bei häufigerem Stecken und Ziehen der Leiterplatte wird dadurch eine unerwünschte Abnützung der Kontaktflächen vermieden. Erst nach dem vollständigen Einstecken des Leiterplattenrandes zwischen die Kontaktstreifen werden diese mit Hilfe von quer zur Einsteckrichtung der Leiterplatte verlaufenden stangenar­tigen Körpern gegen die Kontaktflächen der Leiterplatte gedrückt.Such a connector is known for example from DE 16 65 802 A1. Such a plug connector enables the edge of a printed circuit board covered with contact surfaces to be inserted force-free between contact strips of the plug connector when so-called direct plugging in of printed circuit boards. With frequent plugging and unplugging of the circuit board, undesired wear of the contact surfaces is avoided. Only after the edge of the printed circuit board has been completely inserted between the contact strips are these pressed against the contact surfaces of the printed circuit board by means of rod-like bodies running transversely to the insertion direction of the printed circuit board.

In manchen Fällen ist nur ein einmaliger Steckvorgang notwen­dig, d.h. die Leiterplatte wird nur zwischen die Kontaktstrei­fen des Steckverbinders eingeschoben und verbleibt dann dort.In some cases, only a single plug-in process is necessary, i.e. the circuit board is only inserted between the contact strips of the connector and then remains there.

Aufgabe vorliegender Erfindung ist es deshalb, einen Steckver­binder der eingangs genannten Art so auszubilden, daß das An­drucksystem unter Verwendung des Steckverbinders für nur einmaliges Einstecken der Leiterplatte möglichst unkompliziert und einfach ausgebildet ist.The object of the present invention is therefore to design a connector of the type mentioned at the outset in such a way that the pressure system using the connector is designed to be as straightforward and simple as possible for inserting the circuit board only once.

Erfindungsgemäß ergibt sich die Lösung der Aufgabe dadurch, daß zumindest ein parallel zum Verlauf der Streifen beweglicher Schieberkörper aus Isolierstoff vorgesehen ist, daß der Schie­berkörper an Stirnflächen der Leiterplatte derart abstützbar ausgebildet ist, daß der Schieberkörper durch die Leiterplatte von einer ersten vom Isolierstoffkörper entfernteren Position in eine zweite, dem Isolierstoffkörper nähere Position überführbar ist, und daß der Schieberkörper und die Kontaktstreifen zusam­menwirkende Leitflächen aufweisen, um in der zweiten Position des Schieberkörpers die Kontaktstreifen der einen Reihe gegen die Streifen der anderen Reihe zu bewegen.According to the invention, the object is achieved in that at least one slide body made of insulating material which is movable parallel to the course of the strips is provided, that the slide body is designed to be supported on end faces of the printed circuit board in such a way that the slide body is moved through a printed circuit board from a first position away from the insulating material body a second position closer to the insulating body can be transferred, and that the slide body and the contact strips have cooperating guide surfaces in order to move the contact strips of the one row against the strips of the other row in the second position of the slide body.

Auf diese Weise wird also der zunächst in seiner ersten Position befindliche Schieberkörper durch die Einsteckbewegung der Leiterplatte in seine zweite Position bewegt und bewirkt dadurch, daß sich die Kontaktstreifen an die Kontaktflächen der Leiterplatte legen. Durch eine entsprechende Aufeinander­Abstimmung des Einsteckweges der Leiterplatte und des Schieber­körper-Weges ist es dabei unschwer möglich, den Schieberkörper erst dann auf die Kontaktstreifen einwirken zu lassen, wenn sich die Leiterplatte schon nahezu vollständig in ihrer End­position zwischen den Kontaktstreifen befindet.In this way, the slide body, which is initially in its first position, is moved into its second position by the insertion movement of the printed circuit board and thereby causes the contact strips to lie against the contact surfaces of the printed circuit board. By coordinating the insertion path of the circuit board and the slide body path accordingly, it is not difficult to allow the slide body to act on the contact strips only when the circuit board is almost completely in its end position between the contact strips.

Weitere vorteilhafte Ausgestaltungen der Erfindung sehen vor, daß als Schieberkörper ein die Kontaktstreifen beider Reihen umfassender Isolierstoffrahmen vorgesehen ist, daß der Rahmen mit Führungsnuten für die einzelnen Kontaktstreifen versehen ist, daß der Rahmen zwischen frontseitigen Aufbiegungen der Kontaktstreifen und einer dem Rahmen angepaßten Aufnahmekontur des Isolierstoffkörpers selbsthaltend auf den vom Rahmen umfaßten Kontaktstreifen angeordnet ist, daß die Kontaktstrei­fen mit sich in der zweiten Position des Rahmens an diesem abstützenden Ausbiegungen versehen sind, daß der Rahmen in seiner zweiten Position zwischen den Ausbiegungen der Kontakt­streifen und dem Isolierstoffkörper verrastet ist, daß die Kontaktstreifen und/oder die Kontaktflächen mit einer wieder­ aufschmelzbaren Lotschicht belegt sind, und daß die Kontakt­elemente auf der von den Kontaktstreifen abgewandten Seite als Kontaktfedern ausgebildet sind.Further advantageous refinements of the invention provide that an insulating frame comprising the contact strips of both rows is provided as the slide body, that the frame is provided with guide grooves for the individual contact strips, that the frame between front-side bends of the contact strips and a receiving contour of the insulating body adapted to the frame is self-retaining is arranged on the contact strips encompassed by the frame, that the contact strips are provided with bends supporting them in the second position of the frame, that the frame is locked in its second position between the bends of the contact strips and the insulating body, that the contact strips and / or the contact surfaces with one again fusible solder layer are occupied, and that the contact elements are designed as contact springs on the side facing away from the contact strips.

Ein Ausführungsbeispiel der Erfindung wird nachfolgend anhand von drei Figuren noch näher erläutert.An embodiment of the invention is explained in more detail below with reference to three figures.

Dabei zeigen, in mehr oder weniger grob schematischer Darstel­lung und vergrößert,

  • Fig. 1 den Steckverbinder von oben gesehen, mit aus dem Isolier­stoffkörper des Steckverbinders vorstehenden Kontakt­streifen und dem in seiner ersten Position die Kontakt­streifen umfassenden Rahmen und
  • Fig. 2 und
  • Fig. 3 in Seitenansicht und teilweise im Schnitt die Funktions­weise des Rahmens und der Kontaktstreifen, wenn eine Leiterplatte zwischen die Kontaktstreifen eingeschoben wird.
Show, in a more or less rough schematic representation and enlarged,
  • Fig. 1 seen the connector from above, with the contact strips protruding from the insulating body of the connector and the frame comprising the contact strips in its first position and
  • Fig. 2 and
  • Fig. 3 in side view and partly in section, the operation of the frame and the contact strips when a circuit board is inserted between the contact strips.

Im einzelnen ist den Figuren zu entnehmen, daß in einem lei­stenförmigen Isolierstoffkörper 1 zwischen Stirnseiten 2 des Körpers 1 Kammern 3 verlaufen, in welchen Kontaktelemente 4 fixiert sind. Die Kontaktelemente 4 bilden innerhalb der Kammern 3 Kontaktfedern, in die von einer hinteren Stirnseite 2a her Kontaktstifte oder Kontaktmesser eingesteckt werden können.In detail, it can be seen from the figures that in a strip-shaped insulating material body 1 between end faces 2 of the body 1, chambers 3 run, in which contact elements 4 are fixed. The contact elements 4 form contact springs within the chambers 3, into which contact pins or contact knives can be inserted from a rear end face 2a.

Aus einer vorderen Stirnseite 2b des Isolierstoffkörpers 1 stehen die Kontaktelemente 4 in Form von Kotaktstreifen 5 vor.The contact elements 4 in the form of contact strips 5 protrude from a front end face 2b of the insulating body 1.

Die Kontaktelemente 4 sind im Isolierstoffkörper 1 zweizeilig so angeordnet, daß jeweils zwei Kontaktstreifen 5 Paare bilden, von denen je ein Kontaktstreifen 5 einer Kontaktstreifenreihe angehört.The contact elements 4 are arranged in two rows in the insulating body 1 so that two contact strips each form 5 pairs, of which one contact strip 5 belongs to a row of contact strips.

Die beiden Kontaktstreifenreihen begrenzen im Ruhezustand der Kontaktstreifen 5 einen Zwischenraum 6, der so bemessen ist, daß Leiterplatten 7, die eine maximale Dicke nicht überschrei­ten, mit einem Randbereich 8 völlig kräftefrei zwischen die beiden Kontaktstreifenreihen eingeschoben werden können.In the rest state of the contact strips 5, the two rows of contact strips delimit an intermediate space 6 which is dimensioned such that printed circuit boards 7 which do not exceed a maximum thickness can be inserted with an edge region 8 between the two rows of contact strips without any force.

Der Randbereich 8 der Leiterplatte 7 ist beidseitig mit Kon­taktflächen 9 belegt, die jeweils von wenigstens einem der Kon­taktstreifen 5 kontaktiert werden sollen.The edge area 8 of the printed circuit board 7 is covered on both sides with contact surfaces 9 which are to be contacted by at least one of the contact strips 5.

Die beiden Reihen der Kontaktstreifen 5 werden von einem Iso­lierstoffrahmen 10 umfaßt, der mit seinen Längsbalken 11 jeweils die Kontaktstreifen einer Reihe berührt.The two rows of contact strips 5 are encompassed by an insulating frame 10 which, with its longitudinal bars 11, touches the contact strips of one row.

Der Rahmen 10 sitzt dabei in einer ersten Position zwischen aufgebogenen Enden 12 der Kontaktstreifen 5 und vom Zwischen­raum 6 der Kontaktstreifenreihen abgewandten Ausbiegungen 13, mit denen die Streifen 5 in der Nähe des Isolierstoffkörpers 1 versehen sind.The frame 10 sits in a first position between bent ends 12 of the contact strips 5 and bends 13 facing away from the space 6 of the rows of contact strips, with which the strips 5 are provided in the vicinity of the insulating body 1.

Beim Einschieben der Leiterplatte 7 mit ihrem Randbereich 8 zwischen die beiden Reihen der Kontaktstreifen 5 erfaßt die Leiterplatte 7 den Rahmen 10 und bewegt diesen gegen die vorde­re Stirnseite 2b des Isolierstoffkörpers 1.When the printed circuit board 7 is inserted with its edge region 8 between the two rows of contact strips 5, the printed circuit board 7 grasps the frame 10 and moves it against the front end face 2b of the insulating body 1.

Ein Verkanten des Rahmens gegenüber den Streifen 5 wird dabei dadurch verhindert, daß die Streifen 5 in Führungsnuten 14 des Rahmens geführt sind.Tilting of the frame with respect to the strips 5 is prevented in that the strips 5 are guided in guide grooves 14 of the frame.

Bei seiner Bewegung gegen die Stirnseite 2b des Isolierstoff­körpers 1 erfaßt der Rahmen 10 die Ausbiegungen 13 der Streifen 5 und bewegt dadurch die Streifen 5 gegen die Kontaktflächen 9 der Leiterplatte 7.When moving against the end face 2b of the insulating body 1, the frame 10 detects the bends 13 of the strips 5 and thereby moves the strips 5 against the contact surfaces 9 of the printed circuit board 7.

Schließlich erreicht der Rahmen 10, wenn die Leiterplatte 7 vollständig zwischen die Kontaktstreifen 5 eingeschoben ist (vgl. hierzu insbesondere Fig. 3), eine zweite Position, in welcher sich der Rahmen 10 in einer dem Rahmen 10 angepaßten Aufnahmekontur 15 des Isolierstoffkörpers 1 befindet. In dieser Position hält der Rahmen die Kontaktstreifen 5 gegen die Kon­taktflächen 9 gedrückt und hält sich zudem selbst in dieser Position, indem er sich dabei an einem zur Stirnseite 2b des Isolierstoffkörpers 1 ab fallenden Ast der Ausbiegungen 13 abstützt.Finally, when the circuit board 7 is fully inserted between the contact strips 5 (cf. in particular FIG. 3), the frame 10 reaches a second position in which the frame 10 is located in a receiving contour 15 of the insulating material body 1 which is adapted to the frame 10. In this position, the frame holds the contact strips 5 pressed against the contact surfaces 9 and also holds itself in this position by being supported on a face 2b of the insulating body 1 from the falling branch of the bends 13.

Die Kontaktflächen 9 und/oder die den Kontaktflächen 9 zuge­wandten Seiten der Kontaktstreifen 5 können vorteilhaft mit einer Lotschicht bedeckt sein. Durch die Andruck-Kontaktierung zwischen Kontaktstreifen 5 und Kontaktflächen 9 wird eine Be­einträchtigung der Lotschichten durch schleifende Kontaktier­vorgänge vermieden.The contact surfaces 9 and / or the sides of the contact strips 5 facing the contact surfaces 9 can advantageously be covered with a solder layer. The pressure contact between the contact strips 5 and contact surfaces 9 prevents the solder layers from being impaired by grinding contacting processes.

Durch einen Wiederaufschmelzvorgang der Lotschichten werden die Kontaktflächen 9 mit den Kontaktstreifen 5 verlötet und auf diese Weise der aus dem Isolierstoffgehäuse 1, den Kontaktele­menten 4 und dem Rahmen 10 bestehende Steckverbinder in surface-mount-Anschlußtechnik mit der Leiterplatte 7 verbunden.Through a re-melting process of the solder layers, the contact surfaces 9 are soldered to the contact strips 5 and in this way the connector consisting of the insulating housing 1, the contact elements 4 and the frame 10 is connected to the printed circuit board 7 using surface-mount connection technology.
