Definitions

  • the invention relates to a contact socket for electrical connectors according to the preamble of claim 1.
  • Such a contact socket is known from US Pat. No. 5,921,822.
  • This type of contact socket is characterized in that the contact spring bush has a number of strip-shaped contacting means formed by punching from a continuous strip of a contact material, which are interconnected by two edge strips angled to a hexagonal cross-sectional shape, resulting in the hexagonal cross-sectional shape of the edge strips Only a very limited number of contact strips can be realized, which naturally brings about a reduction in the contact reliability.
  • the contact strips in a known and customary manner are aligned obliquely to the longitudinal axis of the contact spring bushing. From US Pat. No.
  • the invention is therefore the object of an inexpensive producible Contact socket of the type described in the preamble of claim 1 for show electrical connectors, which on the one hand a secure Ensuring anchoring of the contact spring bushing in the stable sleeve body guaranteed and on the other hand also in the mechanical mass production easy to is to realize.
  • the present invention purely positive connection allows the purely mechanical-form-fitting determination of the contact bushing in the stable sleeve body a simple production of the contact socket as a whole with the exclusive use of cutting and forming tools, which very much accommodates a production of the contact sockets of continuous strips of material, in particular to the effect that by means of a punch -and / or cutting tool from a continuous strip of material with a crimp for connecting the contact socket to a single conductor one-piece Köntaktfederbuchsen cut and punched free and then partially more or less completely rolled, in such a way that the contact spring bushing forming areas of the free cuts to a cylinder body rolled up and the crimping parts forming areas of the free cuts can be bent only to an example U-shaped profile cross-section.
  • one of a contact spring socket and a stable sleeve body existing contact socket is provided that in in itself known manner, the contact means of the contact spring bushing from a consist of a continuous strip material punched-free contact strip sequence wherein the Konstaktst Shape at both ends with margins of the continuous Band material connected and in constant mutual distances are held and that the sleeve body one or more tongue-shaped has cutouts inside, each with one of the both the contact strips at both ends interconnecting edge strips in form-fitting engagement stand.
  • a stable sleeve body existing contact socket can also be provided be that at least one of the two contact strips of the contact spring socket at both ends interconnecting edge strips with a window recess is provided and the sleeve body at least one cut and having tongue with the window recess in positive engagement.
  • the window recess is advantageously in the free end of the contact socket arranged opposite edge strips and in the circumferential direction the contact spring bushing aligned so that the positive connection between Contact spring bushing and sturdy sleeve body to the area of the terminal the contact socket is shifted towards the individual conductor.
  • An advantageous design of the positive connection of the contact spring socket with the stable sleeve body is that in which the free End of the contact socket opposite edge strip of the contact spring bushing arranged window recess has a rectangular planform and in the sleeve body two opposing and angled inward Tongues are cut free, which with the narrow sides of the window recess in positive engagement.
  • This training is especially there of particular advantage, where it is further provided that the two in the sleeve body aligned tongues aligned against each other and each of the two tongues in one of the two longitudinal edges of the sleeve body forming Sheet material blank is cut open expiring.
  • the impact edges of the contact spring bush forming material blank and the sleeve body forming material blank rotated by at least 45 ° from each other are arranged.
  • a contact spring bushing illustrated in FIGS. 1 to 5 for electrical connectors are in an originally smooth-surfaced Strip 1 of a strip material of an electrically conductive sheet material a Variety of cutouts 2 punched out, so that between the punched out Free-cutting 2, in the embodiment shown strip-shaped, contacting 3 are retained, which have a rectangular cross-sectional shape and also at both ends via a respective edge strips 4 and 5 connected to each other stay. Together with the contacting means 3 is also at the same time a crimp connection 6 is cut free from the strip of strip material 1. The with the contact spring bushing 7 forming cut areas in one piece, crimp connections 6 forming cutting areas remain overall and constantly with one connected to a transport strip forming region of the starting material.
  • the Contact spring bushing 7 is in one of its two embodiments shown in turn by a rolled-up to a cylinder body flat material portion formed, stable sleeve body 8 recorded and fixed in a form-fitting manner.
  • the stable sleeve body 8 with two mutually oppositely aligned cut and the Centered through the middle of the sleeve body 8, as tongues 9 and 10 trained Provided free cuts, the tongues 9 and 10 with their free ends 11 each abut against the inner end face 12 of the edge strips 4 and 5 and such a stable axial and radial support of the contact spring bush 7 in the stable Form sleeve body 8.
  • 4 In the edge strip 4 is, as particularly clear from the representation of Figure 4 can be seen, a rectangular plan having and in the circumferential direction the edge strip 4 aligned window recess 13 recessed.
  • the stable sleeve body 8 Complementary to the window recess 13 are in the stable sleeve body 8 two also aligned in the circumferential direction, arranged opposite one another and with their free ends facing each other tongues 14 and 15 cut free and with respect to the contact sleeve bent inwardly so that they are in positive engagement with the narrow side edges 16 and 17 of the window recess 13 stand.
  • the two tongues 14 and 15 are shown at Embodiment in one of the two longitudinal edges 18 or 19 of the sleeve body 8 forming sheet material blank discontinuously cut free.
  • Next is 5 shows that the impact edges 20 and 21 of the contact spring bush 7 forming material blank and the impact edges 18 or 19 of the sleeve body 8 forming material blank by at least 45 ° are arranged rotated against each other.
