Definitions

  • the invention relates to a connection adapter for sensors or actuators according to the preamble of claim 1,
  • sensors or actuators for power supply and / or signal transmission on the output side (sensors) or the input side (actuators) have contacts that form a specific mating face. Electricity or signals are transmitted via these contacts.
  • a corresponding connector is plugged with a mating face, which corresponds to the mating face of the sensor or the actuator.
  • a terminal adapter configured and configured to be connected between the terminal side of a sensor or an actuator and the input side of a connector to match different mating faces of the sensor or the actuator and the connector is known.
  • an electrical device with mutually reihbare modules which are interconnected by bridge members for transmitting electrical signals and operating voltage, each having two connectors that can be plugged into matched mating connector of two juxtaposed modules, wherein the mating connectors each have a cylindrical passage of the module housing assigned.
  • the connectors each have a substantially cylindrical outer sleeve, on the circumference of an O-shaped sealing ring is arranged, which abuts when plugged connector under pressure on the wall of the implementation.
  • the invention is therefore based on the object to eliminate the disadvantages described above and to make it possible that with changes in the sensor, the actuator or réellesteckenden connector not always the entire sensor or actuator must be changed and at the same time the reliability is increased.
  • connection adapter has a rotation protection and a sensor housing likewise has a rotation protection corresponding to the rotation protection of the connection adapter for preventing a relative movement between the connection adapter and the sensor or the actuator.
  • connection adapter is therefore an electromechanical interface between the sensor (or actuator) and a directly to be connected to this connector (also called plug, coupling, socket or the like) or other coupling to an electromechanical functional unit.
  • the mechanically and electrically fixed and tightly connected to the sensor or the actuator Connecting adapter thus forms outwardly the complementary counterpart to a predefined connector so that it must have a respective this respective shape or function.
  • connection adapters which do not fulfill a plug connection function to the outside but have a firmly molded electrical line.
  • the essential advantage of such a connection adapter is that, with a uniformly designed interface between the sensor or actuator and the connection adapter, the corresponding sensors or actuators can be modularly and thus very economically provided with a plurality of electromechanical interfaces.
  • connection adapter makes it possible, for example, always to provide one and the same mating face in the direction of the connector, while the mating face of the connection adapter can be different in the direction of the sensor or of the actuator.
  • connection adapter always the same mating face between the sensor or actuator and connection adapter is realized, while the mating face of the connection adapter in the direction of the mating face of the connector can have a variety of ways.
  • connection adapter can thereby achieve a rationalization in the production of sensors, actuators or connectors, since their mating faces can always have the desired shape, in particular depending on customer requirements, while it with differently designed adapters both in terms of their electrical function as well their mechanical or structural design, it is possible to adapt these so to speak standard versions of the sensors, actuators and connectors each other.
  • connection adapter An embodiment of a connection adapter according to the invention, to which the invention is not limited, is described below and based on the FIGS. 1 to 4 explained.
  • FIGS. 1 to 4 especially in the FIG. 1 is, as far as shown in detail, with 1 a complete sensor housing with already mounted erfindungsgeffleBem connection adapter 2 shown.

  • the sensor housing ( FIG. 2 ) has a press-in lateral surface 1.1.1 for the printed circuit board 1.3 and its mechanical attachment and electrical contact.
  • 1.1.2 designates a support surface for the printed circuit board 1.3 or for its mechanical fastening, while 1.1.3 is a sealing surface for a seal of the connection adapter 2.
  • VerFDschutz 1.1.4 is present, which prevents a relative rotational movement between the connection adapter 2 and the sensor or the actuator or the housing.
  • another anti-rotation 1.1.3 is present, which in turn prevents a relative rotational movement between the circuit board 1.3 or its mechanical attachment and the sensor or the actuator or the housing.
  • the sensor housing 1.1 has an axial stop surface 1.1.8 and an axial latching or fastening surface 1.1.7.
  • the aforementioned embodiments of the sensor housing 1.1. Shown in FIG. 2 , Correspond with corresponding embodiments of the plug socket 2.1 of the connection adapter 2, as in FIG. 3 shown and described below.
  • the plug base 2.1 has a sealing surface 2.1.1 for a not shown here, corresponding connector.
  • at least one, preferably a plurality of contact chambers 2.1.2 are provided for receiving and fastening the contacts 2.2.
  • the contacts 2.2 can be encapsulated as inserts. If from the at least one contact chamber 2.1.2 no contact 2.2. led out, this contact chamber can either be closed or out of this a cable, in particular a connection cable to a downstream electronic device, led out.
  • the plug base 2.1 has an axial latching or fastening surface corresponding to the axial stop surface 1.1.7. Furthermore, a twist protection 2.1.4 on the plug socket 2.1 corresponding to the VerFschutz 1.1.4 available. To ensure correct mounting between the connection adapter 2 and the sensor housing 1.1. To realize (or the actuator housing), a coding 2.1.5 is provided. For the already designated seal 2.4, preferably designed as a sealing ring or as an O-ring, the plug socket 2.1 has a sealing surface 2.1.6.
  • an axial abutment surface 2.1.7 on the sensor housing 1.1 corresponding to the axial abutment surface 1.1.6 available, and execution specific a receiving bore 2.1.8 for a press nut 2.3, via which the connection adapter 2 with the mating connector, or possibly with the sensor or is bolted to the actuator.
  • the press-in nut 2.3 can also be encapsulated as an insert.
  • FIG. 4 shows the receptacle 1.2 for the circuit board 1.3, which is an electrically conductive, preferably metallic part with a circular, an angular (in particular rectangular or square) or any other round shape, which has the property that circumscribed this form radius forms a press fit with respect to the press-in circumferential surface 1.1.1.
  • This part is electrically and location-defined mechanically connected by soldering, press-fitting or the like on harnessgekantete press-fit, on additional parts or the like to the circuit board 1.3 to a fixed assembly.
  • the reference number 1.2.1 designates an (optional) anti-rotation protection, which corresponds to the anti-rotation 1.1.5.
