Description
Die vorliegende Erfindung betrifft einen Schalter mit einem Schaltergehäuse, welches durch einen Deckel verschließbar und in seinem Inneren mit Schaltkontakten versehen ist und eine Kabeleinführöffnung aufweist, durch welche ein leitfähiges, mit einem Isoliermantel versehenes und im Gehäuseinneren mit ebenfalls leitfähigen Kontaktelementen leitend verbundenes, mindestens zweiadriges Kabel hindurchgeführt ist.The present invention relates to a switch with a switch housing, which closed by a lid and in its interior with switch contacts is provided and has a Kabeleinführöffnung through which a conductive, provided with an insulating jacket and inside the housing with also conductive Contact elements conductively connected, passed at least two-core cable is.
Die US 4 612 423 offenbart einen Schalter, bei dem zwischen einem schwenkbaren Deckel und einem Gehäuse ein zweiadriges Kabel durchführbar ist. An dem Gehäuse ist eine Aufnahme für Kontaktelemente ausgebildet, die bei einem Verschwenken des Deckels in Verbindung mit den leitfähigen Adern gebracht werden. Der Deckel umgreift das Gehäuse dabei L-förmig und es ist keine umlaufende Dichtung vorgesehen, mittels der ein Eindringen eines Fluides in das Gehäuse verhindert werden könnte. Zudem besitzt das Gehäuse auch im Bereich der Kontaktelemente ein Anpressteil.US 4,612,423 discloses a switch in which between a pivotable Cover and a housing a two-wire cable is feasible. On the case is a receptacle for contact elements formed when pivoting the Lids are brought in conjunction with the conductive wires. The lid engages the housing is L-shaped and no circumferential seal is provided, by means of the penetration of a fluid could be prevented in the housing. moreover the housing also has a pressing part in the area of the contact elements.
Der vorliegenden Erfindung liegt die Aufgabe zugrunde, einen Schalter der gattungsgemäßen Art zu schaffen, der insbesondere im Hinblick auf die notwendige elektrisch leitfähige Kontaktierung des Kabels mit den Kontaktelementen einfach und preiswert montierbar ist.The present invention is based on the object, a switch of the generic type Kind of creating, especially with regard to the necessary electrically conductive contacting the cable with the contact elements easy and is inexpensive to install.
Diese Aufgabe wird erfindungsgemäß durch einen Schalter mit den Merkmalen des Anspruches 1 gelöst wobei sind die Kontaktelemente mit
sich in Richtung des Deckels erstreckenden Kontaktschwertern ausgestattet ,
die unter Durchdringung des Isoliermantels des Flachkabels mit den leitfähigen
Adern des Kabels kontaktieren, daß im Kontaktierungsbereich an der Deckelinnenseite
ein auf das Kabel aufdrückbares Anpreßteil vorgesehen ist, welches derart weit
in das Gehäuseinnere hineinragt, daß bei geschlossenem Deckel das Kabel fest an
die mit den Kontaktschwertern ausgestatteten Kontaktelemente angepreßt ist.This object is achieved by a switch with the features of
Die erfindungsgemäße Konstruktion ermöglicht eine besonders einfache Montage des erfindungsgemäßen Schalters, und zwar speziell im Hinblick auf die erforderliche Kontaktierung zwischen den Kontaktteilen einerseits und dem elektrisch leitfähigen Kabel andererseits. Das Kabel wird nach dem Durchführen bzw. Einführen in das Gehäuseinnere auf die Kontaktschwerter aufgelegt und geringfügig angedrückt. Durch Schließen des Deckels wird dann die endgültige Kontaktierung herbeigeführt, da durch das am Deckel vorgesehene Anpreßteil das Kabel fest auf die Kontaktschwerter aufgedrückt wird, die dann vollständig den Isoliermantel des Kabels durchdringen und in eine Kontaktposition zu den im Inneren liegenden, elektrisch leitfähigen Adern kommen.The construction according to the invention enables a particularly simple assembly the switch according to the invention, specifically with regard to the required Contacting between the contact parts on the one hand and the electrically conductive Cable on the other hand. The cable will be inserted after insertion or insertion into The housing interior is placed on the contact blades and slightly pressed. Closing the cover then brings about the final contact, because by the provided on the cover pressing the cable firmly on the contact blades is pressed, which then completely the insulating jacket of the cable penetrate and in a contact position to the inside, electrically come conductive wires.
Durch das Anpreßteil einerseits und die Kontaktschwerter andererseits wird das Kabel gleichzeitig auch ausreichend fixiert.By the pressing part on the one hand and the contact swords on the other hand is the Cable at the same time sufficiently fixed.
Der Deckel ist wie üblich gegenüber dem Gehäuse abgedichtet, so daß für erfindungsgemäße Schalter problemlos hohe Schutzarten erreichbar sind bei insgesamt geringen Fertigungs- und Montagekosten.The lid is sealed against the housing as usual, so that for Switches according to the invention can be achieved without problems with a high degree of protection low production and assembly costs.
Das Anpreßteil ist vorteilhafterweise an seiner dem Kabel zugewandten Seite mit einer etwa U-förmigen Führungsnut versehen, in welche das Kabel zumindest teilweise hineinragt und deren Breite etwa der Breite des Kabels entspricht.The pressing member is advantageously at its side facing the cable with an approximately U-shaped guide provided, in which the cable at least partially protrudes and whose width corresponds approximately to the width of the cable.
Durch diese konstruktive Maßnahme wird zusätzlich eine gute Seitenfixierung des Kabels ohne nennenswerten Mehraufwand erreicht.By this constructive measure is in addition a good side fixation of Cable achieved without significant additional effort.
Dabei ist die Führungsnut vorteilhafterweise im seitlichen Flankenbereich konisch aufgeweitet, so daß ohne besondere Aufmerksamkeit des Monteurs sichergestellt ist, daß das Flachkabel bei geschlossenem Deckel auch tatsächlich in der dafür vorgesehenen Nut liegt.The guide is advantageously conical in the lateral flank area expanded, so that ensured without special attention of the fitter is that the flat cable with the lid closed actually in the space provided Groove lies.
An der Kabeleinführöffnung ist ein Dichtstopfen angeordnet, der mit einem Kanal zur Durchführung des Kabels versehen und unter Anlage am geschlossenen Deckel von diesem derart zusammengepreßt ist, daß der Kanal gegenüber dem Flachkabel abgedichtet ist.At the cable entry opening is a sealing plug arranged, with a channel for carrying the cable provided and under the closed lid of this so is compressed, that the channel is sealed from the flat cable.
Der Deckel ist am Gehäuse anscharniert und kann an seiner der Scharnierseite gegenüberliegenden Kante mit einer Rastnase aussgestattet sein, die im geschlossenen Zustand einen Rastvorsprung des Gehäuses hintergreift.The lid is hinged to the housing and can at its the hinge side opposite edge be equipped with a locking lug in the closed Condition engages behind a locking projection of the housing.
Ebenso ist es vorstellbar, den Deckel über mehrere Befestigungsschrauben sicher am Gehäuse zu fixieren.It is also conceivable, the lid over several screws securely to fix on the housing.
