| 20110294324 | Plug Connector - In order to improve a plug connector comprising a plug connector housing which is designed to be electrically insulating and consists of a plurality of housing parts, at least one contact element which is arranged in a receiving area of the plug connector housing and is accessible for a contact element of a complementary plug connector via a plug opening, and an electric cable which leads into the plug connector housing via a cable opening and the electrical conductor of which is connected to the contact element, in such a manner that the plug connector housing can be configured in as space-saving a manner as possible with creeping current paths which are as large as possible it is suggested that joins between the housing parts and adjoining the receiving area be closed in a materially joined manner and that, as a result, creeping current paths which lead away from the contact element in the receiving area run exclusively to the plug opening and/or to the cable opening. | 12-01-2011 |
| 20100172618 | CABLE - In order to improve a cable, comprising an inner cable body, in which at least one conductor strand of an optical and/or electrical conductor runs in the longitudinal direction of the cable, a cable sheath, enclosing the inner cable body and lying between an outer surface of the cable and the inner cable body, and at least one information carrier unit, disposed within the outer surface of the cable, in such a way that statements can be made about the cable, it is proposed that the at least one information carrier unit can be read by electromagnetic field coupling, that the at least one information carrier unit picks up at least one measured value of a sensor associated with it and that the measured value can be read out by a read device. | 07-08-2010 |
| 20100166374 | CABLE - In order to improve a cable that comprises an inner cable body, in which at least one conductor strand of an optical and/or electrical conductor runs in the longitudinal direction of the cable, a cable sheath, enclosing the inner cable body and lying between an outer surface of the cable and the inner cable body, and at least one information carrier unit, disposed within the outer surface of the cable, in such a way that, while being easy to produce, the information carrier unit is reliably disposed at suitable points in the cable, it is proposed that a carrier strand is associated with the inner cable body, the carrier strand running over the length of the inner cable body, that at least one information carrier unit that can be read by electromagnetic field coupling is disposed on the carrier strand and that the carrier strand is covered over by the cable sheath. | 07-01-2010 |
| 20100165557 | Cable receiving unit - In order to reliably and simply acquire data for a cable receiving unit for a cable portion, the cable receiving unit is associated with an information carrier unit from which information can be read out by electromagnetic field coupling. | 07-01-2010 |
| 20100158454 | CABLE - In order to improve a cable, comprising an inner cable body, in which at least one conductor strand of an optical and/or electrical conductor runs in the longitudinal direction of the cable, a cable sheath, enclosing the inner cable body and lying between an outer surface of the cable and the inner cable body, and at least one information carrier unit, disposed within the outer surface of the cable, in such a way that said information carrier unit can be easily applied during the production of the cable and is positioned in a protected and reliable manner in the cable, it is proposed that the information carrier unit can be read by electromagnetic field coupling and that the information carrier unit is disposed on an intermediate sheath lying between the inner cable body and an outer cable sheath. | 06-24-2010 |
| 20100147583 | Cable - In order to improve a cable, comprising an inner cable body, in which electrical conductor strands run in the longitudinal direction of the cable, a cable sheath, enclosing the inner cable body and lying between an outer surface of the cable and the inner cable body, and at least one information carrier unit, disposed within the outer surface of the cable, to increase the range of communication between the information carrier unit and the read/write device, it is proposed to provide the information carrier unit having an antenna unit, which can be coupled with a read/write device by parasitic electromagnetic fields between the antenna unit and at least two of the electrical conductor strands of the inner cable body. | 06-17-2010 |
| 20100142902 | Cable - In order to improve a cable, comprising an inner cable body, in which at least one conductor strand of an optical and/or electrical conductor runs in the longitudinal direction of the cable, an outer cable sheath, enclosing the inner cable body and lying between an outer sheath surface of the cable and the inner cable body, and at least one information carrier unit, disposed within the outer sheath surface of the cable such that the cable also comprises a shielding, the invention proposes that the information carrier unit having an antenna unit lying in an antenna surface running approximately parallel to the longitudinal direction of the cable, by the antenna surface running at a distance from an electrical shielding of the cable and by providing, between the antenna surface and the shielding, a spacing layer, in which the electromagnetic field that couples to the antenna unit and passes through the antenna surface can extend between the antenna unit and the shielding. | 06-10-2010 |
| 20090011660 | PLUG-AND-SOCKET CONNECTOR WITH SCREW-TYPE CONNECTION - An improved electrical plug-and-socket connectors with screw-type clamping connections has a step-shaped screw brake for protecting against loss of the clamping screw of connecting stranded conductors of electrical components having as the clamping mode a screw-type clamping connection. The screw brake has one, two or more strips. The plug-and-socket connector has a screw-type connection, having an insulating part, arranged to accommodate at least one contact insert. The contact insert has a substantially cylindrical shape and comprises a contact portion for electrical/mechanical connection to an oppositely shaped contact piece of a matched plug-and-socket connector at a first end of the contact insert. It further comprises an insertion opening for at least one connecting stranded conductor at a second end of the contact insert, there opening in the insertion opening a screw hole which is oriented substantially transversely relative to the central longitudinal axis thereof and comprises an internal thread. The insulating part has a screw channel which is substantially in alignment with the screw hole when a contact insert is accommodated in the insulating part. The screw channel has at least one step. The inside width of the screw channel reduces from a first, greater dimension towards a second, lesser dimension in the direction towards the screw hole of the insertion opening. The screw channel has one or more strips which are oriented substantially coaxially relative to its central longitudinal axis of the and which are so dimensioned that a clamping screw to be inserted in the screw channel fastening the connecting stranded conductor in the insertion opening of the contact insert is subjected to a first, lesser resistance at the strip/strips of the first inside width, and is subjected to a second, greater resistance at the strip/strips of the second inside width. | 01-08-2009 |
