Definitions
- Another object of the invention is to provide a separable electrical coupling device of such construction that the two main connector portions may be easily and quickly disengaged regardless of their relative angular position with respect to the mechanical coupling means associated therewith.
- a still further object is to provide a separable twist-lock type electrical connector which is easily and quickly disengageable regardless of the twist or look position of the coupling nut on the connected parts.
- Another object is to provide a novel coupling device for connecting a pair of members and which permits rapid disengagement of said members upon the application thereto of opposed axial forces in the process of pulling said members apart.
- FIG. 1 is a View in longitudinal axial section, taken on line 11 of FIG. 2, of an assembled electrical connector embodying the coupling device contemplated by the invention;
- FIG. 2 is a view in end elevation of the right-hand separable part of the assembled connector of FIG. 1, the view being taken on line 22 of FIG. 1;
- FIG. 3 is a partial sectionalized view, taken on line 3-3 of FIG. 2;
- FIG. 4 is a view similar to FIG. 3 wherein the coupling nut is in releasing position
- FIG. 5 is aplan view on an enlarged scale of the United States Patent 0 3,538,485 Patented Nov. 3, 1970 internal surface of one of the helically grooved segments of the coupling nut;
- FIG. 6 is a detail sectional view, taken on line 66 of FIG. 2;
- FIG. 7 is a development showing the internal surfaces of the segmented coupling nut in a single plane on a reduced scale.
- FIG. 8 is a development of a portion of the outer surface of sleeve 12 on a reduced scale.
- the single embodiment of the invention illustrated in the drawing is, by way of example, shown in the form .of a plug and socket type electrical connector comprising two mateable parts or assemblies 2 and 3. These assemblies are adapted to be releasably coupled in mating condition for quick and easy simultaneous uncoupling and disengaging by the novel coupling device of the invention.
- the connector assembly or part 2 is shown as com prising a tubular shell 4, an insulating contact supporting insert 5 mounted in the shell, and a plurality of socket contacts 6 supported by the insert.
- shell 4 has three equally spaced coupling pins or lugs 7 projecting radially therefrom, only one of said pins being shown.
- the connector part or assembly 3 shown mated with assembly 2 in FIG. 1 comprises a tubular shell 8 which telescopes with shell 4 and has a plurality of axially extending keys 9 on the periphery thereof. These keys mate with keyways in shell 4 to angularly orient the assemblies and prevent relative rotation thereof.
- An insulating insert 10 supports a plurality of pin contacts 11 in shell 8 for mating with socket contacts 6.
- Novel means are provided for mechanically releasably coupling connector assemblies 2 and 3 together in mated relation in a novel manner which permits quick, simultaneous release of the coupling means and disengagement of the connector assemblies.
- Said coupling means is novelly associated with shell 8 and forms a novel assembly therewith.
- the coupling comprises an inner sleeve 12, the forward end of which surrounds a rear portion of shell 8 and has an internal groove 14 in which is mounted an annular wavy compression spring 15. Alternate lobes of the spring engage the rear wall 16 of said groove, and the other lobes thereof engage concentric telescoping flanges 17 and 18 on shell 8 and sleeve 12, respectively.
- Sleeve 12 is free to rotate about shell 8, and axial movement of sleeve 12 to the right or rearwardly relative to shell 8 is limited by a split washer 19 seated in an annular groove on the shell and engageable with an external shoulder 20 on the sleeve. Shell 8 is permitted limited axial movement to the right or rearwardly relative to sleeve 12 against the compression of spring 15 for a purpose to hereinafter appear.
- An outer 'sleeve 21 surrounds inner sleeve 12 and is connected thereto for rotation therewith and limited axial movement relative thereto by any suitable means, such as an inwardly projecting tab or key 22 (FIG. 6) on sleeve 21 and a mating groove or keyway 23 in the periphery of inner sleeve 12.
- Said inner and outer sleeves have abutting shoulders 24 and 25 which limit relative axial movement thereof in one direction, and such movement in the opposite direction is yieldably opposed by a plurality of coil compression springs 26 and is limited by said springs and a spht washer 27 seated in a groove 28 in the outer surface of sleeve 12.
- Six springs 26 are shown in the illustrated embodiment, each mounted in a cylindrical cavity 29 formed by registering opposed semicircular slots 30 and 31 in the inner surface of outer sleeve 21 and the outer surface of inner sleeve 12, respectively. At one end thereof springs 26 engage the forward ends of grooves 30 and 31, and at the other end said springs engage stop washer 27 or a cupped washer 32 associated therewith.
- Any suitable means such as a lanyard 33, may be secured to outer sleeve 21 for pulling the latter rearwardly relative to inner sleeve 12 and hence, relative to connector assembly 3 against the pressure of springs 26.
- segments 34 Captured between sleeves 12 and 21, Without physical attachment to either sleeve, are a plurality of arcuate segments 34 which collectively and in conjunction with sleeves 12 and 21 form a segmented coupling ring or nut.
- said segments form a so-called bayonet-type nut having three internal helical grooves 35 for engagement with coupling pins 7 of shell 4.
- Segments 34 also have transverse grooves on the inner faces thereof which collectively form an annular internal groove 36 that receives an external rib or flange 37 on sleeve 12.
- the mating surfaces 38 of groove 36 and rib 37 are preferably slightly tapered or inclined, as shown, to facilitate proper action of the segments during the unlocking procedure to be described below.
- segments 34 may be yieldably held against sleeve 12 by a spring or elastic band 39 seated in a groove in the outer surface of segments 34. Circumferential movement of the segments relative to sleeve 12 is prevented by tongues 40 integral with the segments and extending axially into grooves 41 in the outer surface of sleeve 12.
- segments 34 When segments 34 are in operative position (FIG. 1), tongues 40 lie against the surface of sleeve 12 within grooves 41, and the radial thickness thereof is small in comparison to the depths of the grooves so as to permit the segments to tilt or pivot relative to the axis and, hence, to the uncoupling position shown in FIG. 4.
- the elements of the coupling nut assembly will be held by springs 26 in the positions shown in FIG. 3.
- the keyways of shell 4 are first oriented with the keys 9 on shell 8, and the open ends of helical grooves 35 of the coupling nut assembly are oriented with pins 7 on shell 4.
- the assemblies are now moved together axially until pins 7 enter grooves 35.
- the coupling nut assembly comprising sleeves 12 and 21 and segmented ring 34 is now rotated relative to shells 4 and 8 to effect a bayonet-type coupling.
- the assemblies 2 and 3 are drawn axially together by the cooperating pins 7 and helical grooves 35 during rotation of the coupling nut.
- the parts are preferably so designed that the inserts and come into facial engagement just prior to the final axial movement of the coupling nut onto shell 4. During this final movement, the coupling nut assembly will also move axially relative to assembly 3 against the resistance of spring whereby to effect a pressure seal between the engaging faces of the inserts 5 and 10. If desired, spring 15 may be eliminated and the parts so constructed that sleeve 12 and shell 8 move axially substantially as a unit.
- Sleeve 12 and segments 34 are thus prevented from moving with sleeve 21 until the latter has been moved a sufiicient distance to bring annular groove 46 into registry with flange 44 and groove 42 into registry with flange 45 as in FIG. 4.
- Such registry permits the six segments 34 to move radially and to pivot about tabs 40 a suflicient amount to release lugs 7 from grooves 35 so that the entire assembly comprising sleeves 21 and 12, segments 34 and pin contact assembly 3 will move relative to socket contact assembly 2 and effect disengagement of assemblies 2 and 3.
- the radial and pivotal movement of segments 34 are effected by components of force which result from the axial pulling force applied at the beveled surfaces 38 and at the engaging surfaces of lugs 7 and the radial, helical walls of grooves 35.
- release or uncoupling may be effected by an axial pull on sleeve 21 irrespective of the position of lugs 7 in helical grooves 35. It will, of course, be apparent that uncoupling may also be effected by reverse rotation of the nut assembly 12, 21, 34 followed by axial separation and disengagement after lugs 7 emerge from helical slots 35. After uncoupling, the springs 26 will move the parts of the nut assembly to the positions illustrated in FIG. 3 ready for the next coupling operation.
