Campo da Invenção Field of Invention
[0001 ] A presente invenção se refere a um elemento de interface para arranjo de montagem e conexão elétrica de componentes eletrônico e, também, a um arranjo de montagem e conexão elétrica de componentes eletrônicos incluindo elemento de interface, cujo objetivo é eliminar a necessidade de fiação elétrica usualmente envolvida na conexão elétrica desses componentes eletrônicos. [0001] The present invention relates to an interface element for mounting arrangement and electrical connection of electronic components, and also to an arrangement for mounting and electrical connection of electronic components including an interface element, the purpose of which is to eliminate the need for electrical wiring usually involved in the electrical connection of these electronic components.
Fundamentos da Invenção Fundamentals of the Invention
[0002] Os componentes eletrônicos são a estrutura de um circuito eletrônico, isto é, são os componentes que fazem parte de qualquer circuito elétrico ou eletrônico (desde os mais simples aos mais complexos) e que estão interligados entre si. Pode também ser definido como componente eletrônico todo dispositivo elétrico que transmite a corrente elétrica através ou de um condutor ou semicondutor. [0002] Electronic components are the structure of an electronic circuit, that is, they are the components that are part of any electrical or electronic circuit (from the simplest to the most complex) and that are interconnected with each other. An electronic component can also be defined as any electrical device that transmits electric current through or through a conductor or semiconductor.
[0003] Dentre os inúmeros componentes eletrônicos existentes, um que está enormemente integrado ao cotidiano das pessoas, apesar de geralmente não estar à vista, é a placa de circuito impresso, também conhecida como PCB (sigla para “printed circuit board’ , do inglês). Computadores, televisores, veículos, smartphones e brinquedos são apenas alguns exemplos de equipamentos que fazem uso dessas placas repletas de componentes eletrônicos para desempenhar suas respectivas funcionalidades. [0003] Among the numerous existing electronic components, one that is enormously integrated into people's daily lives, although it is usually not in sight, is the printed circuit board, also known as PCB (acronym for “printed circuit board' , from the English ). Computers, televisions, vehicles, smartphones and toys are just a few examples of equipment that make use of these boards full of electronic components to perform their respective functions.
[0004] Em geral, um circuito impresso consiste em uma placa formada por camadas de materiais plásticos e fibrosos (como fenolite, fibra de vidro, fibra e filme de poliéster, entre outros polímeros) que conta com finas películas de substâncias metálicas (cobre, prata, ouro ou níquel). Essas películas formam as “trilhas” ou “pistas” que são responsáveis pela condução da corrente elétrica pelos componentes eletrônicos. Esses impulsos elétricos são transmitidos para os componentes, viabilizando o funcionamento de cada peça e, consequentemente, do sistema completo formado pela PCB. [0004] In general, a printed circuit consists of a board formed by layers of plastic and fibrous materials (such as phenolite, glass fiber, polyester fiber and film, among other polymers) that has thin films of metallic substances (copper, silver, gold or nickel). These films form the “trails” or “tracks” that are responsible for conducting the electric current through the electronic components. These electrical impulses are transmitted to the components, enabling the operation of each part and, consequently, of the complete system formed by the PCB.
[0005] Na área da engenharia, referidas PCB’s geralmente também são associadas a conectores elétricos, responsáveis por prover a conexão elétrica entre dita PCB e algum outro componente eletro-eletrônico, por exemplo, sensores de pressão, sensores de temperatura, sensores de vibração, entre diversos outros possíveis. [0005] In the engineering area, said PCB's are usually also associated with electrical connectors, responsible for providing the electrical connection between said PCB and some other electro-electronic component, for example, pressure sensors, temperature sensors, vibration sensors, among many other possible ones.
[0006] Normalmente, um conector elétrico é formado por duas partes presas em um objeto rígido ou flexível, como um cabo, por exemplo. Em geral, estas duas partes se conectam através de um pino e de um soquete, que envolve o pino de forma a manter o contato físico e a condução elétrica, de modo satisfatório. Mais especificamente, os conectores elétricos são normalmente projetados de forma que o receptáculo do componente tenha lâminas ou pinos metálicos machos e o receptáculo do chicote tenha contrapartes fêmeas. [0006] Normally, an electrical connector consists of two parts attached to a rigid or flexible object, such as a cable, for example. In general, these two parts are connected through a pin and a socket, which involves the pin in order to maintain physical contact and electrical conduction satisfactorily. More specifically, electrical connectors are typically designed such that the component receptacle has male metal blades or pins and the harness receptacle has female counterparts.
[0007] Existem vários tipos diferentes de conectores. Os mais conhecidos são os RCA que são geralmente utilizados para fazer a ligação entre aparelhos de TV, videocassetes, reprodutores de DVD, e até mesmo placas de vídeo de computadores. Também existem conectores de cabos de rede de computador, conectores VGA (mais utilizados para conectar a placa de vídeo de um computador a um monitor), conectores SVGA (também utilizados para conexão entre placas de vídeo de computadores e monitores, porém também pode conectar TV, projetores, DVD, etc), dentre outros. [0007] There are several different types of connectors. The best known are the RCA that are generally used to make the connection between TV sets, VCRs, DVD players, and even computer video cards. There are also connectors for computer network cables, VGA connectors (mostly used to connect a computer's video card to a monitor), SVGA connectors (also used for connection between computer video cards and monitors, but it can also connect TV , projectors, DVD, etc.), among others.
[0008] Em resumo, os conectores elétricos existem em uma pluralidade de tamanhos e formatos, baseados em sua função, especificações do fabricante, número de polos, etc. Alguns exemplos de conectores elétricos são encontrados nos documentos EP1146602, DE10004288 e US5820398, por exemplo. [0008] In short, electrical connectors exist in a variety of sizes and formats, based on their function, manufacturer specifications, number of poles, etc. Some examples of electrical connectors are found in documents EP1146602, DE10004288 and US5820398, for example.
[0009] No entanto, no estado da técnica, a maioria desses conectores elétricos 3’, conforme mencionado anteriormente, está também associada a um cabo (ou fiação elétrica) 4’ para conduzir a corrente elétrica entre um primeiro componente eletrônico T e um segundo componente eletrônico 2’ conectados entre si, tal como o desenho esquemático da fig. 1. Um exemplo desse tipo de arranjo é ilustrado pela solução do documento US2019326694. [0009] However, in the state of the art, most of these electrical connectors 3', as mentioned earlier, are also associated with a cable (or electrical wiring) 4' for conducting the electric current between a first electronic component T and a second electronic component 2' connected together, such as the schematic drawing in fig. 1. An example of this type of arrangement is illustrated by the solution in document US2019326694.

[0031 ] Assim, com foco em alcançar os objetivos supracitados, a presente invenção diz respeito a um elemento de interface para arranjo de montagem e conexão elétrica de componentes eletrônicos e, também, a um arranjo de montagem e conexão elétrica de componentes eletrônicos incluindo elemento de interface. [0031] Thus, with a focus on achieving the aforementioned objectives, the present invention concerns an interface element for assembly arrangement and electrical connection of electronic components and also an assembly arrangement and electrical connection of electronic components including element of interface.
[0032] De antemão, cabe destacar que os termos “pelo menos um” serão omitidos daqui pra frente apenas para fins de síntese e inteligibilidade do presente descritivo. [0033] Conforme se visualiza nas figuras anexas, a presente invenção consiste em um elemento que compreende um corpo vazado 30, dito corpo vazado 30 sendo delimitado por uma parede circunferencial 31 , dita parede circunferencial 31 incluindo respectivas parede superior 311 , parede inferior 312 e paredes laterais 313. Dito corpo vazado 30 sendo compreendido, ainda, por uma parede longitudinal 32 que se estende longitudinalmente a partir da parede circunferencial 31 , dita parede longitudinal 32 incluindo respectiva parede superior 321 e paredes laterais 323. [0032] In advance, it should be noted that the terms “at least one” will be omitted from now on only for purposes of synthesis and intelligibility of this descriptive. [0033] As seen in the attached figures, the present invention consists of an element comprising a hollow body 30, said hollow body 30 being delimited by a circumferential wall 31, said circumferential wall 31 including respective upper wall 311, lower wall 312 and side walls 313. Said hollow body 30 being further comprised by a longitudinal wall 32 extending longitudinally from the circumferential wall 31, said longitudinal wall 32 including respective top wall 321 and side walls 323.
[0034] As ditas paredes circunferencial 31 e longitudinal 32 definem, entre si, um degrau interno 33 e um degrau externo 34, sendo que o degrau interno 33, que é a própria face anterior da parede longitudinal 32, estende-se radialmente para dentro a partir da parede superior 311 da parede circunferencial 31 , enquanto o degrau externo 34 é definido pelo rebaixo entre a superfície externa da parede superior 311 da parede circunferencial 31 e a parede superior 321 da parede longitudinal 32. Vale destacar que aqui os termos “interno” e “externo” são relativos ao corpo vazado 30 do elemento de interface 3. [0034] Said circumferential 31 and longitudinal walls 32 define, between them, an internal step 33 and an external step 34, the internal step 33, which is the front face of the longitudinal wall 32, extends radially inwards from the upper wall 311 of the circumferential wall 31, while the outer step 34 is defined by the recess between the outer surface of the upper wall 311 of the circumferential wall 31 and the upper wall 321 of the longitudinal wall 32. ” and “external” are related to the hollow body 30 of the interface element 3.
[0035] Cabe esclarecer, também, que a parede circunferencial 31 é substancialmente inteiriça, ou seja, contornante, exceto por alguns rasgos longitudinais 314 que serão pormenorizadamente detalhados a frente, enquanto a parede longitudinal 32 não é inteiriça, ou seja, não é contornante, haja vista que não compreende uma “parede inferior”. [0035] It should also be clarified that the circumferential wall 31 is substantially integral, that is, contoured, except for some longitudinal slots 314 that will be detailed in detail ahead, while the longitudinal wall 32 is not integral, that is, it is not contoured , considering that it does not include a “lower wall”.
[0036] Outro esclarecimento necessário é que o corpo vazado 30 do elemento de interface 3 é assim denominado pelo fato de ser substancialmente tubular (ou passante), apesar da parede longitudinal 32 não incluir uma “parede inferior”. [0036] Another necessary clarification is that the hollow body 30 of the interface element 3 is so named because it is substantially tubular (or through), despite the longitudinal wall 32 not including a "bottom wall".
[0037] Dito corpo vazado 30 do elemento de interface 3 ainda inclui pelo menos uma primeira nervura 40 que compreende uma porção anterior 41 e uma porção posterior 42, sendo que dita porção anterior 41 da primeira nervura 40 se estende radialmente para dentro (do corpo vazado 30) a partir da parede superior 311 da parede circunferencial 31 , enquanto dita porção posterior 42 da primeira nervura 40 se estende radialmente para dentro (do corpo vazado 30) a partir da parede superior 321 da parede longitudinal 32. [0038] Neste sentido, observa-se que o corpo vazado 30 define um primeiro vão G1 delimitado pelo espaçamento entre dita pelo menos uma primeira nervura 40 e a parede inferior 312 da parede circunferencial 31 , sendo tal espaçamento medido em uma direção ortogonal à referida parede inferior 312. Ainda, o corpo vazado 30 também define um quinto vão G5 definido pelo espaçamento entre as paredes laterais 313 da parede circunferencial 31. [0037] Said hollow body 30 of the interface element 3 further includes at least one first rib 40 comprising an anterior portion 41 and a posterior portion 42, said anterior portion 41 of the first rib 40 extending radially inwards (from the body hollow 30) from the upper wall 311 of the circumferential wall 31, while said rear portion 42 of the first rib 40 extends radially inwards (from the hollow body 30) from the upper wall 321 of the longitudinal wall 32. [0038] In this sense , it is observed that the hollow body 30 defines a first gap G1 delimited by the spacing between said at least one first rib 40 and the bottom wall 312 of the circumferential wall 31, such spacing being measured in a direction orthogonal to said bottom wall 312. Furthermore, the hollow body 30 also defines a fifth gap G5 defined by the spacing between the side walls 313 of the circumferential wall 31.
[0039] O elemento de interface 3 inclui, ainda, um primeiro meio de encaixe rápido e seguro 51 hábil de cooperar com um primeiro componente eletrônico 1 e um segundo meio de encaixe rápido e seguro 52 hábil de cooperar com um segundo componente eletrônico 2. [0039] The interface element 3 further includes a first quick and secure fitting means 51 able to cooperate with a first electronic component 1 and a second quick and secure fitting means 52 able to cooperate with a second electronic component 2.
[0040] Preferencialmente, o primeiro meio de encaixe rápido e seguro 51 compreende uma haste 511 que se estende longitudinalmente a partir de uma das paredes superior 311 , inferior 312 ou lateral 313 da parede circunferencial 31 , dita haste 511 incluindo um primeiro elemento de encaixe rápido e seguro 512 que, de acordo com a concretização preferencial da invenção, é um ressalto de haste. Alternativamente, dito primeiro elemento de encaixe rápido e seguro 512 poderia ser um orifício, por exemplo. [0040] Preferably, the first quick and secure locking means 51 comprises a rod 511 extending longitudinally from one of the upper 311, lower 312 or side 313 walls of the circumferential wall 31, said rod 511 including a first locking element fast and safe 512 which, according to the preferred embodiment of the invention, is a rod shoulder. Alternatively, said first quick and secure fitting element 512 could be a hole, for example.
[0041 ] Também de maneira preferencial, o segundo meio de encaixe rápido e seguro 52 compreende uma lingueta 521 que se estende radialmente para fora a partir de uma das paredes superior 311 , inferior 312 ou lateral 313 da parede circunferencial, e se estende longitudinalmente numa direção substancialmente paralela ao eixo longitudinal do elemento de interface 3. [0041] Also preferably, the second quick and secure engagement means 52 comprises a tongue 521 that extends radially outwards from one of the upper 311, lower 312 or side 313 walls of the circumferential wall, and extends longitudinally in a direction substantially parallel to the longitudinal axis of the interface element 3.
[0042] Dita lingueta 521 inclui pelo menos um segundo elemento de encaixe rápido e seguro 522 que, de acordo com a concretização preferencial da invenção, é um rasgo de lingueta. Alternativamente, dito segundo elemento de encaixe rápido e seguro 522 poderia ser um ressalto de lingueta. [0042] Said tongue 521 includes at least one second quick and secure fitting element 522 which, according to the preferred embodiment of the invention, is a tongue slot. Alternatively, said second quick and secure engagement element 522 could be a tongue shoulder.
[0043] Neste sentido, observa-se que o corpo vazado 30 do elemento de interface 3 define um segundo vão G2 delimitado pelo espaçamento entre dita parede circunferencial 31 e a lingueta 521 e, mais especificamente, entre superfície externa da parede superior 311 da parede circunferencial 31 e a lingueta 521 , sendo tal espaçamento medido em uma direção ortogonal à referida parede circunferencial 31. [0043] In this sense, it is observed that the hollow body 30 of the interface element 3 defines a second gap G2 delimited by the spacing between said circumferential wall 31 and the tongue 521 and, more specifically, between the outer surface of the upper wall 311 of the wall circumferential wall 31 and tongue 521, such spacing being measured in a direction orthogonal to said circumferential wall 31.
[0044] Preferencialmente, dita lingueta 521 se estende a partir de uma das paredes superior 311 , inferior 312 ou lateral 313, enquanto a haste 511 se estende a partir de outra das paredes superior 311 , inferior 312 ou lateral 313 da parede circunferencial 31 . De acordo com a concretização preferencial, a lingueta 521 se estende a partir da parede superior 311 da parede circunferencial 31 , enquanto a haste 511 se estende a partir da parede inferior 312 da parede circunferencial 31 . [0044] Preferably, said tongue 521 extends from one of the upper 311, lower 312 or side 313 walls, while the rod 511 extends from another of the upper 311, lower 312 or side 313 walls of the wall circumferential 31 . According to the preferred embodiment, the tongue 521 extends from the upper wall 311 of the circumferential wall 31, while the rod 511 extends from the lower wall 312 of the circumferential wall 31.
[0045] A haste 511 é delimitada por rasgos longitudinais 314 providos na parede em questão, preferencialmente, conforme mencionado acima, a parede inferior 312 da parede longitudinal 31. Ainda, também de modo preferencial, dita haste 511 possui tal comprimento que a faz se estender além da borda extrema da referida parede circunferencial 31. [0045] The rod 511 is delimited by longitudinal slots 314 provided in the wall in question, preferably, as mentioned above, the lower wall 312 of the longitudinal wall 31. Furthermore, also preferably, said rod 511 has such a length that it becomes extend beyond the extreme edge of said circumferential wall 31.
[0046] Além disso, cabe ressaltar que a haste 511 é disposta como uma viga em balanço e que, em função de sua geometria e material de fabricação, acaba apresentando certa capacidade de flexão, que é importantíssima para o devido encaixe entre os componentes em questão. O mesmo ocorre com a lingueta 521. [0046] In addition, it should be noted that the rod 511 is arranged as a cantilevered beam and that, due to its geometry and manufacturing material, it ends up presenting a certain bending capacity, which is extremely important for the proper fit between the components in question. The same goes for tongue 521.
[0047] Também de maneira preferencial, dito elemento de interface 3 inclui, ainda, pelo menos um rebaixo lateral 315 definido junto à parede lateral 313 da parede circunferencial 31 e pelo menos uma segunda nervura 43 que se estende radialmente para fora a partir da parede superior 321 da parede longitudinal 32, de modo a cooperar com respectivo(s) rebaixo(s) 24 providos em um flange interno 23 da parede perimetral 21 de um segundo componente eletrônico 2. A disposição e dimensionamento de dita pelo menos uma segunda nervura 43 e respectivo(s) rebaixo(s) 24 é dada de tal maneira que sua(s) interação(ões) garantam uma única possibilidade de montagem (poka-yoke). [0048] Tendo sido detalhadamente descrito o elemento de interface 3, torna-se possível descrever o arranjo de montagem e conexão elétrica de componentes eletrônicos da presente invenção. [0047] Also preferably, said interface element 3 further includes at least one lateral recess 315 defined next to the side wall 313 of the circumferential wall 31 and at least one second rib 43 extending radially outwards from the wall upper 321 of the longitudinal wall 32, so as to cooperate with the respective recess(s) 24 provided in an internal flange 23 of the perimeter wall 21 of a second electronic component 2. The arrangement and dimensioning of said at least one second rib 43 and respective recess(s) 24 is given in such a way that their interaction(s) guarantee a single assembly possibility (poka-yoke). [0048] Having described the interface element 3 in detail, it becomes possible to describe the mounting arrangement and electrical connection of electronic components of the present invention.
[0049] Dito arranjo de montagem e conexão elétrica de componentes eletrônicos incluindo elemento de interface 3 compreende um primeiro componente eletrônico 1 , a saber, uma placa de circuito impresso PCB, compreendendo uma porção de inserção 11 , definida por um comprimento L e uma largura W, que provê uma área na qual é disposto pelo menos um primeiro terminal elétrico 12, do tipo mola (plana), dito primeiro terminal elétrico 12 incluindo pelo menos uma primeira porção de terminal 121 que é plana e é fixa (soldada) ao primeiro componente eletrônico 1 e uma segunda porção de terminal 122 que se estende a partir da primeira porção de terminal 121 e é disposta em balanço em relação a essa última. [0049] Said assembly arrangement and electrical connection of electronic components including interface element 3 comprises a first electronic component 1, namely a PCB printed circuit board, comprising an insertion portion 11, defined by a length L and a width W, which provides an area in which at least one first electrical terminal 12, spring-type (flat) is arranged, said first electrical terminal 12 including at least one first terminal portion 121 that is flat and is fixed (welded) to the first electronic component 1 and a second terminal portion 122 extending from the first terminal portion 121 and cantilevered with respect to the latter.
[0050] Particularmente, de acordo com a presente invenção, a porção de inserção 11 do primeiro componente eletrônico 1 , a saber, da placa de circuito impresso PCB, é inserida e alojada no interior do corpo vazado 30 do elemento de interface 3, ao longo do primeiro vão G1 e envolta, pelo menos parcialmente, pela parede circunferencial 31 do elemento de interface 3, sendo que dita porção de inserção 11 do primeiro componente eletrônico 1 é assentada, de um lado (interno), contra dita primeira nervura 40 e/ou contra as paredes laterais 323 da parede longitudinal 32 do elemento de interface 3 e assentada, de outro lado (externo), contra a superfície interna da parede circunferencial 31 do elemento de interface 3 - mais especificamente, contra à superfície interna da parede inferior 312 da parede circunferencial 31 -, e também contra a superfície interna da parede perimetral 21 do segundo componente eletrônico 2 - vide fig. 1 1. [0050] Particularly, according to the present invention, the insertion portion 11 of the first electronic component 1, namely the printed circuit board PCB, is inserted and housed inside the hollow body 30 of the interface element 3, at the along the first span G1 and surrounded, at least partially, by the circumferential wall 31 of the interface element 3, said insertion portion 11 of the first electronic component 1 being seated, on one (internal) side, against said first rib 40 and /or against the side walls 323 of the longitudinal wall 32 of the interface element 3 and seated, on the other (external) side, against the inner surface of the circumferential wall 31 of the interface element 3 - more specifically, against the inner surface of the bottom wall 312 of the circumferential wall 31 -, and also against the inner surface of the perimeter wall 21 of the second electronic component 2 - see fig. 1 1.
[0051 ] Neste sentido, cabe destacar que a largura L da porção de inserção 11 do primeiro componente eletrônico 1 é equivalente à distância entre as paredes laterais 313 do elemento de interface 3, ou seja, equivalente à largura do quinto vão G5 e, por isso, referida porção de inserção 11 resta imobilizada lateralmente, conforme se observa na fig. 8. [0051] In this sense, it should be noted that the width L of the insertion portion 11 of the first electronic component 1 is equivalent to the distance between the side walls 313 of the interface element 3, that is, equivalent to the width of the fifth span G5 and, therefore, therefore, said insertion portion 11 remains immobilized laterally, as seen in fig. 8.
[0052] De acordo com essa montagem, um terceiro vão G3 é definido pelo espaçamento entre a superfície interna da parede longitudinal 32 do elemento de interface 3 e o primeiro componente eletrônico 1 , sendo que dita segunda porção de terminal 122 do dito primeiro terminal elétrico 12 é disposta no terceiro vão G3. Ainda, um quarto vão G4 é definido pelo espaçamento entre a superfície interna da parede longitudinal 32 do elemento de interface 3 e a segunda porção de terminal 122 do primeiro terminal elétrico 12, sendo que dito quarto vão G4 é “contido” no terceiro vão G3, portanto. [0053] Ademais, dito arranjo de montagem também inclui um segundo componente eletrônico 2 compreendendo uma parede perimetral 21 e carregando pelo menos um segundo terminal elétrico 22 circundado pela dita parede perimetral 21 , sendo que uma primeira parte da parede perimetral 21 do segundo componente eletrônico 2 se insere no segundo vão G2 e se assenta contra a parede circunferencial 31 do elemento de interface 3, enquanto uma segunda parte da dita parede perimetral 21 se assenta contra o degrau externo 34 do elemento de interface 3. [0052] According to this assembly, a third gap G3 is defined by the spacing between the inner surface of the longitudinal wall 32 of the interface element 3 and the first electronic component 1, said second terminal portion 122 of said first electrical terminal 12 is arranged in the third gap G3. Furthermore, a fourth span G4 is defined by the spacing between the inner surface of the longitudinal wall 32 of the interface element 3 and the second terminal portion 122 of the first electrical terminal 12, said fourth span G4 being "contained" in the third span G3 , therefore. [0053] Furthermore, said mounting arrangement also includes a second electronic component 2 comprising a perimeter wall 21 and carrying at least one second electrical terminal 22 surrounded by said perimeter wall 21, a first part of the perimeter wall 21 of the second electronic component 2 inserts into the second gap G2 and rests against the circumferential wall 31 of the element interface element 3, while a second part of said perimeter wall 21 rests against the external step 34 of the interface element 3.
[0054] Neste sentido, dito degrau externo 34 acaba por atuar como um batente para a montagem entre esses componentes, visto que a parede perimetral 21 do segundo componente eletrônico 2 inclui um flange interno 23 que se assenta contra dito degrau externo 34, conforme acima descrito. Além disso, uma terceira parte da parede perimetral[0054] In this sense, said external step 34 ends up acting as a stop for the assembly between these components, since the perimeter wall 21 of the second electronic component 2 includes an internal flange 23 that sits against said external step 34, as above described. In addition, a third part of the perimeter wall
21 do segundo componente 2 assenta-se contra o lado externo do primeiro componente eletrônico 1 , a saber, a placa de circuito impresso PCB - vide fig. 11. 21 of the second component 2 sits against the outside of the first electronic component 1, namely the printed circuit board PCB - see fig. 11.
[0055] Ainda, nota-se que, de acordo com a presente invenção, dito segundo terminal elétrico 22 se insere ao longo dos terceiro e quarto vãos G3, G4, assentando-se contra a superfície interna da parede longitudinal 32 do elemento de interface 3 e se estendendo longitudinalmente ao longo da mesma, de modo que dito primeiro terminal elétrico 12 e dito segundo terminal elétrico 22 são física e eletricamente conectados entre si por pressão de contato. [0055] Also, note that, according to the present invention, said second electrical terminal 22 is inserted along the third and fourth spans G3, G4, resting against the inner surface of the longitudinal wall 32 of the interface element 3 and extending longitudinally therealong, such that said first electrical terminal 12 and said second electrical terminal 22 are physically and electrically connected to each other by contact pressure.
[0056] Essa pressão de contato é dada justamente em função da montagem entre o primeiro e segundo componentes eletrônicos 1 , 2 se dar por meio do elemento de interface 3, cuja parede longitudinal 32 acaba por suportar o segundo terminal elétrico 22, ea espessura do segundo terminal elétrico 22 ser maior do que a dimensão do quarto vão G4, no qual referido segundo terminal elétrico 22 é alojado. Em outras palavras, a altura do terceiro vão G3 é menor do que a soma da espessura do segundo terminal elétrico 22 com a altura do primeiro terminal elétrico 12, quando em repouso (ou seja, não protendidos). Destaca-se, ainda, que tanto a espessura do segundo terminal elétrico[0056] This contact pressure is given precisely because the assembly between the first and second electronic components 1, 2 takes place through the interface element 3, whose longitudinal wall 32 ends up supporting the second electrical terminal 22, and the thickness of the second electrical terminal 22 is larger than the dimension of the fourth span G4, in which said second electrical terminal 22 is housed. In other words, the height of the third span G3 is less than the sum of the thickness of the second electrical terminal 22 and the height of the first electrical terminal 12, when at rest (i.e. not prestressed). It is also noteworthy that both the thickness of the second electrical terminal
22 quanto a altura do segundo terminal elétrico 22 são medidas em uma direção paralela à altura do terceiro vão G3, ou seja, ortogonal à primeira porção de terminal 121. 22 and the height of the second electrical terminal 22 are measured in a direction parallel to the height of the third span G3, i.e. orthogonal to the first terminal portion 121.
[0057] Vale ressaltar que, de acordo com esse arranjo de montagem, resta evidente que a parede circunferencial 31 do elemento de interface 3, que é substancialmente inteiriça, é capaz de “abraçar”/envolver a placa de circuito impresso PCB, enquanto a parede longitudinal 32 do elemento de interface 3, que é não inteiriça, recobre a área da placa de circuito impresso PCB que carrega o primeiro terminal elétrico 12, mas não “abraça”/envolve dita placa de circuito impresso PCB. De todo modo, o lado externo da porção de inserção 11 da placa de circuito impresso PCB que não é envolta pelo elemento de interface 3 acaba sendo envolvido e protegido pela parede perimetral 21 do segundo componente eletrônico, conforme se observa da fig. 10, por exemplo. [0057] It is noteworthy that, according to this mounting arrangement, it is evident that the circumferential wall 31 of the interface element 3, which is substantially integral, is able to "hug"/envelop the printed circuit board PCB, while the longitudinal wall 32 of the interface element 3, which is non-integral, covers the area of the printed circuit board PCB that carries the first electrical terminal 12, but does not "embrace"/envelop said printed circuit board PCB. In any case, the outer side of the insertion portion 11 of the printed circuit board PCB which is not wrapped by the interface element 3 ends up being surrounded and protected by the perimeter wall 21 of the second electronic component, as seen in fig. 10, for example.
[0058] Ainda, de modo preferencial, de acordo com a presente invenção, dito primeiro componente eletrônico 1 , a saber, a placa de circuito impresso PCB, inclui pelo menos um terceiro meio de encaixe rápido e seguro 53, enquanto dita parede perimetral 21 do segundo componente eletrônico 2 inclui pelo menos um quarto meio de encaixe rápido e seguro 54, conforme se observa da fig. 9. [0058] Still, preferably, according to the present invention, said first electronic component 1, namely the printed circuit board PCB, includes at least one third fast and secure fitting means 53, while said perimeter wall 21 of the second electronic component 2 includes at least a fourth fast and secure fitting means 54, as seen in fig. 9.
[0059] Assim, ditos primeiro e terceiro meios de encaixe rápido e seguro 51 , 53 cooperam entre si e ditos segundo e quarto meios de encaixe rápido e seguro 52, 54 cooperam entre si, de maneira que o primeiro componente eletrônico 1 , a saber, a placa de circuito impresso PCB, o elemento de interface 3 e o segundo componente eletrônico 2 são segura e removivelmente montados entre si numa disposição coaxial. [0059] Thus, said first and third quick and secure coupling means 51, 53 cooperate with each other and said second and fourth quick and secure coupling means 52, 54 cooperate with each other, so that the first electronic component 1, namely , the printed circuit board PCB, the interface element 3 and the second electronic component 2 are securely and releasably mounted together in a coaxial arrangement.
[0060] Por fim, de acordo com a concretização preferencial da presente invenção, dito terceiro meio de encaixe rápido e seguro 53 é um orifício hábil de cooperar com o primeiro elemento de encaixe rápido e seguro 512, a saber, o ressalto de haste; enquanto o quarto meio de encaixe rápido e seguro 54 é um ressalto provido na parede perimetral 21 do segundo componente eletrônico 2, que é hábil de cooperar com um segundo elemento de encaixe rápido e seguro 522, a saber, o ressalto de lingueta. [0060] Finally, according to the preferred embodiment of the present invention, said third quick and secure fitting means 53 is an orifice capable of cooperating with the first quick and safe fitting element 512, namely the rod shoulder; while the fourth quick and secure fitting means 54 is a projection provided on the perimeter wall 21 of the second electronic component 2, which is able to cooperate with a second quick and secure fitting element 522, namely the tongue projection.
[0061 ] Em resumo, ditos meios/elementos de encaixe rápido e seguro 51 , 52, 53, 54, 512, 522 podem assumir qualquer formato de ressaltos ou orifícios, desde que os meios/elementos que cooperam entre si sejam correspondentes, isto é, desde que um seja a contraparte do outro. [0061] In summary, said quick and secure fitting means/elements 51, 52, 53, 54, 512, 522 can assume any shape of projections or holes, provided that the means/elements that cooperate with each other are corresponding, i.e. , provided that one is the counterpart of the other.
[0062] Em vista de todo o acima exposto, resta claro que o formato e dimensionamento de cada um dos componentes (e suas partes) do arranjo de montagem da presente invenção provê o travamento de todos os graus de liberdade, exceto pelo grau de liberdade referente ao movimento axial/longitudinal que, por sua vez, é travado pela interação entre os meios de encaixe rápido 51 , 52, 53, 54. [0062] In view of all of the above, it is clear that the format and dimensioning of each of the components (and their parts) of the assembly arrangement of the present invention provides for the locking of all degrees of freedom, except for the degree of freedom referring to the axial/longitudinal movement which, in turn, is blocked by the interaction between the quick fitting means 51, 52, 53, 54.
[0063] É importante ressaltar que a descrição acima tem como único objetivo descrever de forma exemplificativa a concretização particular da invenção em questão. Portanto, torna-se claro que modificações, variações e combinações construtivas dos elementos que exercem a mesma função substancialmente da mesma forma para alcançar os mesmos resultados, continuam dentro do escopo de proteção delimitado pelas reivindicações anexas. [0063] It is important to emphasize that the above description has the sole purpose of describing, by way of example, the particular embodiment of the invention in question. Therefore, it becomes clear that modifications, variations and constructive combinations of elements that perform the same function in substantially the same way to achieve the same results, remain within the scope of protection delimited by the appended claims.
