Description

Die Erfindung bezieht sich auf eine Anordnung gemäß dem Patentanspruch 1.The invention relates to an arrangement according to claim 1.

Derartige Anordnungen sind grundsätzlich bekannt und auf dem Markt erhältlich. Sie dienen beispielsweise zum gemeinsamen Anschluß von mindestens zwei Adern eines Kabelsatzes für elektrische Geräte und Kraftfahrzeuge an ein gemeinsames Potential, wie beispielsweise "Masse". Für die Verbindung aller Adern kann in bekannter Technik beispielsweise ein metallisches Stanzgitter eingesetzt werden, an welches die Leiter der Adern mittels Steckkontakten angeschlossen werden können.Such arrangements are known in principle and are available on the market. They serve, for example, for the common connection of at least two wires of a cable set for electrical devices and motor vehicles to a common potential, such as "ground". For the connection of all wires, for example, a metal stamped grid can be used in known technology, to which the conductors of the wires can be connected by means of plug contacts.

Aus der JPS 56 150081 U geht ein T-Verbinder hervor, an den drei elktrische Leiter angeschlossen sind. Der T-Verbinder hat zwei seitliche, C-förmig gebogene Seitenarme und eine diesselben verbindende Lasche. Die Lasche hat mehrere Löcher, in welche Schraubverbinder eingesetzt werden können. Mittels der Schraubverbinder können weitere elektrische Leiter an die Lasche angeschlossen werden. Einer dieser Leiter kann im rechtem Winkel zu den beiden anderen Leitern verlaufen.From the JPS 56 150081 U shows a T-connector to which three electrical conductors are connected. The T-connector has two lateral, C-shaped curved side arms and a tab connecting the same. The tab has several holes into which screw connectors can be inserted. Additional electrical conductors can be connected to the bracket using the screw connector. One of these conductors can be at right angles to the other two conductors.

Die GB 340,671 A beschreibt einen T-förmigen Verbinder für drei elektrische Leiter, der an seinen drei Armen mit nach oben abstehenden Flanschen ausgerüstet ist, die an ihren Oberkanten unter Bildung von Vorsprüngen geschlizt sind. Sie können um einen elektrischen Leiter herumgebogen werden, wobei die jeweiligen Vorsprünge ineinander greifen.The GB 340,671 A describes a T-shaped connector for three electrical conductors which is equipped on its three arms with upwardly projecting flanges which are slotted at their upper edges to form protrusions. They can be bent around an electrical conductor with the respective projections interlocking.

Die US 2006/0079138 A1 beschreibt ein Bauteil, das aus zwei ringförmigen Verbindungselementen zusammengesetzt ist. Jedes der beiden Verbindungselemente hat ein zentrales Loch und in seinem Außenbereich Verriegelungselemente, mittels derer es mit komplementären Verriegelungselementen des jeweils anderen ringförmigen Verbindungselements zu einer Einheit verriegelt werden kann, um das aus zwei Teilen bestehende Bauteil zu erhalten. Das Bauteil soll mittels des zentralen Loches auf einen Bolzen eines elektrischen Systems oder Schaltkreises aufgesteckt werden.The US 2006/0079138 A1 describes a component which is composed of two annular connecting elements. Each of the two connecting elements has a central hole and locking elements in its outer area, by means of which it can be locked to form a unit with complementary locking elements of the other annular connecting element in order to close the component consisting of two parts receive. The component should be plugged onto a bolt of an electrical system or circuit by means of the central hole.

Bei der Anordnung nach der EP 2 073 314 A1 wird als elektrisch leitendes Verbindungselement eine Platine mit mindestens einer Leiterbahn eingesetzt, in der beispielsweise als Einpreßkontakte ausgeführte Steckerstifte angebracht sind. Auf die Steckerstifte können Steckkontakte aufgesteckt werden, die jeweils mit dem Leiter einer Ader verbunden sind. Die unterschiedlichen Leiter sind dann über die Leiterbahnen der Platine elektrisch leitend miteinander und insbesondere mit einer gemeinsamen, als Potentialleiter dienenden elektrischen Ader verbunden.In the arrangement according to the EP 2 073 314 A1 a circuit board with at least one conductor track is used as the electrically conductive connecting element, in which plug pins designed as press-fit contacts are attached, for example. Plug contacts can be plugged onto the plug pins, each of which is connected to the conductor of a wire. The different conductors are then connected to one another in an electrically conductive manner via the conductor tracks of the board and in particular to a common electrical wire serving as a potential conductor.

Der Erfindung liegt die Aufgabe zugrunde, die eingangs geschilderte Anordnung einfacher zu gestalten.The invention is based on the object of making the arrangement described above simpler.

Diese Aufgabe wird entsprechend der Gesamtheit der kennzeichnenden Merkmale des Patentanspruchs 1 gelöst.This object is achieved in accordance with the entirety of the characterizing features of claim 1.

Diese Anordnung ist einfach aufgebaut und besonders einfach zu montieren. Das Verbindungselement kann beispielsweise als Stanzteil auf einfache Weise an alle möglichen Anwendungsfälle angepaßt werden. So ist die Anzahl der Vorsprünge variabel und deren Abmessungen können leicht an die Abmessungen der Leiter der jeweils anzuschließenden Adern angepaßt werden. Das beispielsweise aus Kupfer oder einer Kupferlegierung, aus Messing oder aus Bronze bestehende Verbindungselement trägt als reines Verbindungselement keine Funktionselemente. Es kann als ebenes Bauteil aber auch in gebogener Form ausgeführt sein. Das Verbindungselement ist mit angeschlossenen Leitern bzw. Adern in eine feuchtigkeitsdichte Umhüllung eingebettet.This arrangement has a simple structure and is particularly easy to assemble. The connecting element can be adapted in a simple manner to all possible applications, for example as a stamped part. The number of projections is variable and their dimensions can easily be adapted to the dimensions of the conductors of the respective cores to be connected. The connecting element, which is made for example of copper or a copper alloy, brass or bronze, as a pure connecting element does not carry any functional elements. It can be designed as a flat component but also in a curved shape. The connecting element is embedded with connected conductors or wires in a moisture-proof covering.

Die Vorsprünge können mit Vorteil als Crimpverbinder gestaltet sein, an welchen die Leiter der Adern jeweils durch Crimpen festgelegt werden.The projections can advantageously be designed as crimp connectors on which the conductors of the wires are each fixed by crimping.

Ein Ausführungsbeispiel des Erfindungsgegenstandes ist in den Zeichnungen dargestellt.An embodiment of the subject matter of the invention is shown in the drawings.

  • Fig. 2 ein in der Anordnung nach Fig. 1 einsetzbares Verbindungselement in vergrößerter Darstellung.

Show it:
  • Fig. 1 in a schematic representation an arrangement according to the invention with a connection point of several electrical wires.
  • Fig. 2 one in the arrangement according to Fig. 1 insertable connecting element in an enlarged view.
  • Fig. 3 a detail Fig. 2 in a further enlarged view.

Die Anordnung nach der Erfindung wird mit Vorteil als sogenannter Potentialverteiler für Kraftfahrzeuge eingesetzt, in welchem mindestens zwei elektrische Adern an eine gemeinsame elektrische Ader angeschlossen sind, welche mit einem Punkt mit vorgegebenem Potential verbunden ist, beispielsweise mit "Masse". Das Wort "Ader" beschreibt - wie bereits eingangs erwähnt - einen von einer Isolierung umgebenen, metallischen Leiter aus elektrisch gut leitendem Material, vorzugsweise aus Kupfer. Der Leiter kann einteilig, massiv ausgeführt sein. Er kann aber auch als Litzenleiter aus einer Vielzahl von dünnen Einzeldrähten aufgebaut sein.The arrangement according to the invention is advantageously used as a so-called potential distributor for motor vehicles, in which at least two electrical wires are connected to a common electrical wire which is connected to a point with a predetermined potential, for example to "ground". The word "wire" describes - as already mentioned at the beginning - a metallic conductor surrounded by insulation and made of a material with good electrical conductivity, preferably made of copper. The head can be made in one piece, solid. However, it can also be constructed as a stranded conductor from a large number of thin individual wires.

Für die Verbindung der Adern wird ein als Scheibe oder Platte ausgeführtes Verbindungselement 1 verwendet, das an seiner Umfangsfläche eine Anzahl von nach außen abstehenden Vorsprüngen 2 hat, die gegeneinander abgegrenzt sind. Die Anzahl der Vorsprünge 2 richtet sich nach der Anzahl von einzelnen elektrischen Adern 3, die mit einer gemeinsamen elektrischen Ader 4 verbunden werden sollen, welche in Montageposition an einen weiteren Vorsprung 5 des Verbindungselements 1 angeschlossen ist.To connect the wires, a connecting element 1 designed as a disk or plate is used, which has a number of outwardly protruding projections 2 on its peripheral surface, which are delimited from one another. The number of projections 2 depends on the number of individual electrical wires 3 which are to be connected to a common electrical wire 4, which is connected to a further projection 5 of the connecting element 1 in the assembly position.

In Fig. 1 sind drei elektrische Adern 3 eingezeichnet, die über drei Vorsprünge 2 elektrisch leitend mit dem Verbindungselement 1 verbunden sind. Es sollen mindestens zwei einzelne Adern 3 vorhanden sein. Mit Vorteil sind es aber mehr als drei Adern 3. Die Adern 3 können an ihrem fernen Ende jeweils Anschlußelemente 6 aufweisen, wie Stecker oder Buchsen, mittels derer sie mit elektrischen Geräten verbunden werden können. Die elektrisch leitenden Querschnitte der Leiter von Adern 3 und 4 werden - auch materialabhängig - aufeinander abgestimmt. Die Ader 4 hat an ihrem fernen Ende ebenfalls ein Anschlußelement 7, das zum elektrisch leitenden Anschluß an einen Massepunkt bzw. an einen Fixpunkt mit vorgegebenem Potential dient.In Fig. 1 three electrical wires 3 are shown, which are electrically conductively connected to the connecting element 1 via three projections 2. There should be at least two individual wires 3. Advantageously, however, there are more than three wires 3. The wires 3 can each have connection elements 6 at their distal end, such as plugs or sockets, by means of which they can be connected to electrical devices. The electrically conductive cross-sections of the conductors of wires 3 and 4 are matched to one another, also depending on the material. The wire 4 also has a connection element 7 at its distal end, which for electrically conductive connection to a ground point or to a fixed point with a predetermined potential.

Zur Herstellung einer elektrisch leitenden Verbindung zwischen den Adern 3 einerseits und der Ader 4 andererseits wird zunächst das Verbindungselement 1 mit den Vorsprüngen 2 und 5 erzeugt, beispielsweise durch Stanzen. Es kann danach als ebene Scheibe oder Platte verbleiben, aber auch gebogen werden. Die geometrische Form des Verbindungselements 1 ist in weiten Grenzen beliebig, solange dasselbe mit gegeneinander abgegrenzten Vorsprüngen zum Anschließen der Adern geeignet ist. Die an den Enden der Adern 3 und 4 abisolierten Leiter derselben werden an das fertiggestellte Verbindungselement 1 über die entsprechenden Vorsprüngen 2 und 5 elektrisch leitend angeschlossen. Das kann beispielsweise durch Schweißen oder Löten erfolgen.To produce an electrically conductive connection between the wires 3 on the one hand and the wire 4 on the other hand, the connecting element 1 with the projections 2 and 5 is first produced, for example by punching. It can then remain as a flat disc or plate, but it can also be bent. The geometric shape of the connecting element 1 is arbitrary within wide limits, as long as it is suitable for connecting the wires with projections that are delimited from one another. The conductors of the same stripped at the ends of the wires 3 and 4 are connected in an electrically conductive manner to the completed connecting element 1 via the corresponding projections 2 and 5. This can be done, for example, by welding or soldering.

Es ist aber auch möglich, die Vorsprünge 2 und 5 als Crimpverbinder einzusetzen, die mit einem entsprechenden Werkzeug um die Leiter der Adern 3 und 4 herumgecrimpt werden können. Dazu ist es möglich, die Vorsprünge 2 und 5 bereits bei der Herstellung des Verbindungselements 1 so zu biegen, wie es für einen Vorsprung 2 aus Fig. 7 hervorgeht. Die Leiter der einzelnen Adern brauchen dann nur in die gebogenen Vorsprünge eingelegt und in denselben festgecrimpt zu werden.But it is also possible to use the projections 2 and 5 as crimp connectors, which can be crimped around the conductors of the wires 3 and 4 with an appropriate tool. For this purpose, it is possible to bend the projections 2 and 5 already during the manufacture of the connecting element 1, as can be seen for a projection 2 from FIG. 7. The conductors of the individual wires then only need to be inserted into the curved projections and crimped into them.

Die aus Verbindungselement 1 und angeschlossenen Adern 3 und 4 bestehende Anordnung wird nach ihrer elektrisch wirksamen Fertigstellung insgesamt in eine feuchtigkeitsdichte Umhüllung eingebettet, die sich bis über die Isolierungen der einzelnen Adern erstrecken kann.The arrangement consisting of connecting element 1 and connected wires 3 and 4 is embedded in a moisture-proof envelope after its electrically effective completion, which can extend over the insulation of the individual wires.
