Embodiment Construction

[0012] figure 1 The illustrated connector 1 has a housing 3 with an insertion opening 4 for a flat flexible cable 2 . The flat flexible cable 2 is inserted into this introduction opening 4 until it hits the end of the opening. The flat flexible cable 2 has at its front end a conductor rail from which the insulation material has been stripped, against which the spring contact 5 is pressed. In addition to the flat flexible cable 2 , a slider 9 having various functions is introduced into the introduction opening 4 . Firstly, the slider 9 realizes the strain relief of the flat flexible cable 2, which will be described in detail below, and secondly, it presses the spring contact 5 more strongly against the conductive track of the flat flexible cable 2 from which the insulation has been stripped. superior. Strain relief is achieved by a ramp 12 at the rear end of the slide, viewed in the insertion direction, the rear end of which projects above the introduction opening 4 in the p...

Abstract

The invention relates to a connector (1) for flexible flat strip cables (2), comprising a housing (3), inside which at least one slot (4) for inserting an end of a flexible flat strip cable, spring contacts (5) for connecting the at least one flexible flat strip cable (2) to contacts (6) or another flexible flat strip cable (7), and at least one strain relief device (8) are provided. Said strain relief device (8) encompasses a slide (9) which is inserted into the insertion slot (4) above the flexible flat strip cable (2). The flexible flat strip cable (2) is redirected into a recess (11) located on the bottom of the insertion slot (4) by means of a rib (10) that is disposed on the slide (9) until the slide (9) locks into the terminal position thereof on the housing (3).

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a connector for flat flexible cables according to the preamble of patent claim 1 . Background technique [0002] Such a connector is known for example from GB-1,317,264 B1. The connector described here has spring contacts in the housing that press against the area of ​​the flat flexible cable where the insulation has been stripped, while the opposite ends of these spring contacts are for plug-in connections. The shape of the receiving connector for the slot of the connector. The interconnection of two flat flexible cables is achieved by directly contacting the parts of the flat flexible cables from which the insulating material has been stripped. The overall construction of the connector described here has proven to be complex with respect to its operation and does not allow for effective strain relief. Contents of the invention [0003] The object of the present invention is to substantially improve this type of connector...
