Definitions
- the invention is based on a modular circuit card connector according to the preamble of independent claim 1.
- Such connectors are intended to establish a flow and / or data connection to a circuit card.
- PCB connectors are plugged with connectors arranged on a PCB.
- Connector module consists of at least one housing.
- the connector modules have a plug-in side and a connection side, the connection side generally being mountable on the printed circuit board.
- the plug-in side is used for electrical connection with a suitable circuit card connector.
- the contact elements of the connector modules are soldered to conductor tracks on a circuit board.
- the holding frame can in turn be inserted into a metallic housing.
- the modularity is known to be a great advantage in such a connector.
- Such a connector is for making contact
- a connector mounted (soldered on) on a printed circuit board is not suitable because it is too bulky and too heavy.
- the object of the invention is a modular
- circuit card connector that can be used flexibly and is suitable for a circuit card connector.
- the circuit card connector should be inexpensive to manufacture.
- the modular circuit card connector according to the invention consists at least of a first housing part and a second housing part.
- the housing parts are to form a connector housing
- the housing parts can be reversibly fixed to one another via a latching connection and / or via a screw connection.
- the circuit card connector on which this invention is based is a modular connector. This means that the connector consists of several, the same or different ones
- Connector modules together. These consist of one Module housing in which a desired contact element can be inserted.
- the type of contact elements depends on the area of application of the connector module or connector.
- the circuit card connector has at least two connector modules. The connector modules can be plugged into the
- the connector modules are held in a pluggable manner in the connector housing by the housing parts that are joined or fixed to one another.
- pluggable is meant that the connector modules are held so firmly or stably in the connector housing that they can be plugged into a corresponding mating connector (module).
- the connector modules are substantial
- the connector modules have a
- connection side of the connector modules is opposite
- the connector modules each have at least one groove on two opposite surfaces.
- the groove or the grooves are each arranged on a surface which is oriented perpendicular to the plug side.
- the housing parts advantageously each have a continuous and / or segmented web on the plug-in side. If the housing parts are manufactured in an injection molding process, such a web can be provided directly in the manufacturing process.
- the above-mentioned grooves and ridges form the locking system for the connector modules in the circuit card connector.
- the webs of the Housing parts each engage in the at least one groove of the respective connector modules.
- the printed circuit card connector preferably has its
- PCB connector can be reversibly fixed to a mating connector arranged on a PCB, so that the
- Insertion direction are movable.
- the fixing arms are elongated and extend over the narrow sides of the
- the fixing arms are resiliently formed or mounted on the connector housing or on the housing part approximately in the middle.
- the fixing arms each have a pressure plate which can be pressed against one another.
- the fixing arms move apart on the plug side, so that the circuit card connector can be separated from its mating connector.
- the fixing arms automatically slide over the mating connector.
- prior pressing of the pressure plates described above can also be advantageous during the plugging process.
- the fixing arms are advantageously formed on only one housing part.
- the second housing part can then be designed without fixing arms.
- Such a constellation has manufacturing advantages.
- the housing parts are each made of plastic.
- Such a variant is not only inexpensive to manufacture, but also enables it to be molded on the movable fixing arms in the injection molding process of the housing parts.
- Fig. 1 is a perspective view of an inventive
- FIG. 2 shows a perspective illustration of a first housing part of the circuit card connector
- FIG. 3 shows a perspective illustration of a second housing part of the circuit card connector
- FIG. 4 shows a perspective illustration of a first housing part of a second embodiment of a
- Figure 1 shows a perspective view of a
- Printed circuit card connector 1 has a first housing part 2, 2 ′, which is shown in perspective in FIGS. 2 and 4.
- the first housing parts 2, 2 'shown in Figures 2 and 4 form the Basis for various embodiments of the circuit card connector 1 according to the invention. The embodiments differ essentially in the number of those that can be accommodated therein
- Connector modules 4, 4 ‘and thus in their mating width.
- the connector modules 4, 4 ' are designed essentially cuboid.
- the connector modules 4, 4 ' have a plug-in side S and a connection side A. With the mating side S the
- the connector modules 5 each have two grooves 5, 6 on two opposite sides.
- the first housing part 2, 2 ' has a support surface 8 on which the connector modules 4, 4' can be placed next to one another.
- a segmented web 9 is arranged on the edge of the support surface 8. The segmented web 9 engages in the rear groove 5 of the connector module 4, 4 '.
- the plug-in area of the second housing part 3 is shown in FIG.
- the second housing part 3 has a support surface 8, which, in the assembled state, is pressed against the connector modules 4, 4 ‘that are lined up.
- the continuous web 9 ‘engages in the front groove 6 of the
- the printed circuit card connector 1 has a fixing arm 10 on each of its narrow sides.
- the fixing arms 10 extend on the plug side beyond the connector housing and point there at the end Fixing hook 13, for reversible attachment to a
- the fixing arms 10 are integrally formed approximately in the middle of the second housing part 3 and are resiliently attached to or mounted on the connector housing via the integrally formed part.
- the fixing arms 10 each have a pressure plate 11.
- the pressure plate 11 can be pressed against a stop surface 12.
- the fixing arms 10 widen on the plug-in side and the fixing hooks move out of the active area of the mating connector (not shown) so that the plug connection between the circuit card connector 1 and the mating connector can be released.
- the printed circuit card connector 1 On the plug-in side, the printed circuit card connector 1 has guide webs 14 pointing in the plug-in direction. This is a perfect fit
- the printed circuit card connector 1 can be equipped with different and / or similar connector modules 4, 4 'as follows: First, the connector modules 4, 4' are lined up one after the other on the support surface 8 of the first housing part 2. The rear groove 5 is first placed obliquely on the segmented web 9 and then the respective
- Connector module 4, 4 ‘pressed onto support surface 8. This process is repeated until the required number is reached
- Connector modules 4, 4 ‘located in the first housing part 2.
- Threaded openings 15, 16 are fixed to one another, whereby the connector modules 4, 4 ′ are also fixed in the circuit card connector 1 at the same time will.
