Description

Die Erfindung bezieht sich auf einen Schneidklemmkontakt, beispielsweise für Reihenklemmen, der an einem Verbindungsbügel einen geschlitzten, federnden Kontaktbereich als Kontaktierungsschlitz aufweist, der durch einen äußeren Federbügel umfasst und verstärkt ist, im Einzelnen nach Gattungsbegriff von Anspruch 1. Im Einlaufbereich kann der Federbügel zu Schneidmessern ausgestaltet sein (eine derartige Ausführung ist nach § 3(2) PatG aus DE 199 21 769.6 bekannt).The invention relates to an insulation displacement contact, for example for terminal blocks on a connecting bracket a slotted, resilient contact area as a contacting slot has by an outer spring clip is encompassed and strengthened, specifically according to the generic term of claim 1. In the inlet area, the spring clip can Be designed cutting knives (such a design is known from DE 199 21 769.6 according to § 3 (2) PatG).

Der Federbügel kann in seinem Material auf die Federeigenschaften abgestimmt werden und der Kontaktbereich im Verbindungsbügel auf seine elektrisch leitende Eigenschaft.The material of the spring clip can be adjusted to the spring properties and the contact area in the connection bracket on its electrically conductive property.

Wenn die Schneidmesser einen Einlaufbereich vor dem Kontaktierungsschlitz bilden, stehen beim Verbindungsbügel seine Schenkel am Kontaktierungsschlitz aufeinander. Es hat sich gezeigt, dass in der Praxis wegen üblicher Fertigungstoleranzen nicht immer sicherzustellen ist, dass die Schenkel in einer Ebene liegen. Ohne erhöhten Fertigungsaufwand infolge verringerter Toleranzen kann es in der Praxis vorkommen, dass die Schenkel versetzt aneinander vorbeigleiten. Die Anschlussverhältnisse sind dann nicht gleichbleibend sichergestellt.If the cutting knife has an entry area in front of the contacting slot form, stand at the connecting bracket Legs on the contacting slot on top of each other. It has shown that in practice due to usual manufacturing tolerances It is not always possible to ensure that the legs are in one Level. Without increased manufacturing costs as a result In practice, reduced tolerances can mean that the legs slide past each other. The connection conditions are then not guaranteed consistently.

Der Erfindung liegt die Aufgabe zugrunde, den eingangs geschilderten Schneidklemmkontakt so weiter zu entwickeln, dass bei üblichen Fertigungstoleranzen gleichbleibende Anschlusseigenschaften sichergestellt sind.The invention has for its object the above To further develop insulation displacement contact so that constant connection properties with usual manufacturing tolerances are ensured.

Die Lösung der geschilderten Aufgabe erfolgt nach der Erfindung durch einen Schneidklemmkontakt nach Anspruch 1. Hierbei stehen die Schneidmesser hinter ihrem Einlaufbereich aneinander auf. Da die Schneidmesser aus dem Federbügel gefertigt sind oder zumindest starr mit diesem verbunden sind, lässt sich sicherstellen, dass die Schneidmesser in einer Ebene aufeinander aufstehen. Man kann die Schneidmesser in diesem Bereich auch verhältnismäßig plan ausführen, so dass sie auch leicht versetzt noch sicher aufeinander aufstehen.The solution to the described problem is solved according to the invention by an insulation displacement contact according to claim 1. Here the cutting knives stand together behind their infeed area on. Because the cutting knife is made from the spring clip are or are at least rigidly connected to it make sure the cutting knives are in one plane get up on each other. You can see the cutting knife in this Area also run relatively flat, so do it too stand on each other with a slight offset.

Es ist vorteilhaft, wenn die Schneidmesser an ihrer Rückseite, bezogen auf ihre Vorderseite mit der Leitereinführung, ein zur Vorderseite hin gestuftes Profil derart aufweisen, dass sie mit diesem in ein entsprechendes Profil des Verbindungsbügels eingreifen und diesen öffnen können, wenn sie selbst durch einen eingeführten Leiter auseinander gedrückt und geöffnet werden. Dadurch erspart man sich einen Einlaufbereich im Kontaktierungsschlitz, so dass beim Herausführen eines zuvor angeschlossenen Leiters dieser nicht hinter der Schulter der Messer verhaken kann.It is advantageous if the cutting knives on their back, related to their front with the conductor entry, have a profile stepped towards the front, with this in a corresponding profile of the connection bracket can intervene and open it if they even pushed apart by an inserted conductor and be opened. This saves you an entry area in the contacting slot so that when it comes out of a previously connected conductor is not behind the Shoulder of the knife can get caught.

Es ist auch günstig, wenn die Schneidmesser, bezogen auf die Leitereinführung, vor den Federbügel mit seinen Stirnkanten hervorstehen.It is also convenient if the cutting knife, based on the Conductor entry, in front of the spring clip with its front edges protrude.

Dadurch kann sich ein einzuführender Leiter nicht an den vorderen Stirnseiten des Federbügels verhaken. Vielmehr wird er im Einführungsbereich in den Schneidmessern sauber zum Kontaktierungsschlitz geführt.As a result, a conductor to be inserted cannot adhere to the front Hook the front ends of the spring clip. Rather, he will in the insertion area in the cutting blades, clean to the contacting slot guided.

Alle diese geschilderten Ausführungsformen haben gemeinsam den Vorteil, dass die Schneidmesser aus einem härteren Material als das Material des Verbindungsbügels im Kontaktierungsschlitz gefertigt sein können. Bei der Fertigung eines Schneidklemmkontaktes der geschilderten Art ist es vorteilhaft, wenn der Verbindungsbügel im Bereich seines Kontaktierungsschlitzes in ein Auflager am Federbügel eingreift. Der Verbindungsbügel kann am Auflager des Federbügels in Schabetechnik festgelegt werden. Hierbei wird Material des Federbügels auf den Verbindungsbügel nach Art eines Schabens heruntergequetscht. Der Verbindungsbügel ist dadurch spielfrei mit dem Federbügel verbunden, wodurch Toleranzen vermieden werden, wie sie bei fensterartigen Durchbrüchen auftreten können.All these described embodiments have in common the advantage that the cutting knives are made of a harder material than the material of the connection bracket in the contact slot can be made. When manufacturing a Insulation displacement contact of the type described, it is advantageous if the connecting bracket is in the area of its contact slot engages in a support on the spring clip. The The connecting bracket can be scraped onto the spring bracket support be determined. This is the material of the spring clip squeezed down on the connecting bracket like a scraper. The connecting bracket is therefore free of play connected to the spring clip, which avoids tolerances, as they can occur with window-like openings.

Der Schneidklemmkontakt kann in einer Verbindungsklemme, ggf. mit weiteren Schneidklemmkontakten eingesetzt werden. Die Verbindungsklemme kann als Reihenklemme ausgeführt sein.The insulation displacement contact can, if necessary, can be used with additional insulation displacement contacts. The Connection terminal can be designed as a terminal block.

Die Erfindung soll nun anhand von in der Zeichnung schematisch wiedergegebenen Ausführungsbeispielen näher erläutert werden:

    • The invention will now be explained in more detail with reference to exemplary embodiments schematically shown in the drawing:
  • FIG. 1 shows an insulation displacement contact in a view of the contacting slot and the cutting blades with an inlet area.
  • 2 shows the insulation displacement contact according to FIG. 1 in a side view.
  • In Figure 3, an insulation displacement contact is illustrated in perspective.

    • Der Schneidklemmkontakt 1 nach FIG 1 weist an einem Verbindungsbügel 2 einen geschlitzten, federnden Kontaktbereich als Kontaktierungsschlitz 3 auf. Der Kontaktierungsschlitz 3 ist durch einen äußeren Federbügel 4 umfasst und in seiner Federkraft verstärkt. Der Federbügel 4 ist in einem Einlaufbereich 5 zu Schneidmessern 6 ausgestaltet. Wesentlich ist, dass die Schneidemesser 6 hinter ihrem Einlaufbereich 5 in einem Aufstandsbereich 7 aneinander aufstehen. Es ist vorteilhaft, die Schenkel des Verbindungsbügels 2 am Kontaktierungsschlitz 3 geringfügig zurück versetzt auszuführen, so dass nur im Aufstandsbereich 7 eine Berührung im Ruhezustand erfolgt.The insulation displacement contact 1 according to FIG. 1 has a connecting bracket 2 a slotted, resilient contact area as Contact slot 3 on. The contacting slot 3 is by an outer spring clip 4 and in its spring force strengthened. The spring clip 4 is in an inlet area 5 designed for cutting knives 6. It is essential that the Cutting knife 6 behind its inlet area 5 in a contact area 7 get up together. It is beneficial that Leg of the connecting bracket 2 on the contacting slot 3 slightly offset, so that only in the uprising area 7 there is a touch in the idle state.

    Die Schneidmesser 6 weisen an ihrer Rückseite, bezogen auf ihre Vorderseite mit der Leitereinführung, ein zur Vorderseite hin gestuftes Profil derart auf, dass sie in ein entsprechendes Profil 9 des Verbindungsbügels 2 öffnend eingreifen, wenn die Schneidmesser 6 unter Einführung eines anzuschließenden Leiters auseinander gedrückt werden.The cutting knives 6 have on their back, based on their front with the wire entry, one to the front stepped profile in such a way that it fits into a corresponding Intervene to open profile 9 of connecting bracket 2, when the cutting knife 6 introducing one to be connected Conductor are pressed apart.

    Es ist vorteilhaft, wenn, wie im Ausführungsbeispiel wiedergegeben, die Schneidmesser 6 bezogen auf die - Leitereinführung - vor den Federbügel 4 mit seinen Stirnkanten 10 hervorstehen. Dadurch kann sich ein einzuführender Leiter nicht an den Stirnkanten verhaken. Wenn zum Anschließen eines Leiters dieser mit seiner ihn ummantelnden Isolation in den Einlaufbereich 5 der Schneidmesser 6 eingeführt wird, trennen die Schneidmesser die Isolation auf und der einzuführende Leiter treibt die Schneidmesser öffnend auseinander. Hierdurch nehmen diese mit ihrem Profil 8 am Gegenprofil 9 des Verbindungsbügels die Schenkel des Verbindungsbügels längs des Kontaktierungsschlitzes 3 öffnend mit.It is advantageous if, as shown in the exemplary embodiment, the cutting knife 6 related to the - conductor entry - protrude from the spring clip 4 with its front edges 10. This means that a conductor to be inserted cannot be attached hook the front edges. When connecting a conductor this with its insulation encasing it in the inlet area 5 the cutting knife 6 is inserted, separate the Cutting knife the insulation on and the conductor to be inserted drives the cutting knives apart. Take this through these with their profile 8 on the counter profile 9 of the connecting bracket the legs of the connecting bracket along the contacting slot 3 opening with.

    Der Verbindungsbügel 2 greift im Bereich seines Kontaktierungsschlitzes 3 in ein Auflager 11 am Federbügel 4 ein. Man vergleiche die FIG 2 und 3. Der Verbindungsbügel 2 ist am Auflager 11 des Federbügels 4 in Schabetechnik festgelegt. Hierbei wird Material 12 des Federbügels 4 in Schabetechnik auf eine ausgreifende Nase 13 des Verbindungsbügels heruntergequetscht und der Verbindungsbügel 2 dadurch am Federbügel 4 festgelegt.The connecting bracket 2 engages in the area of its contacting slot 3 in a support 11 on the spring clip 4. you compare FIGS 2 and 3.
