Definitions

  • the invention relates to a spring terminal for contacting electrical conductors with at least one bus bar and at least one clamping spring having a plant leg, a subsequent to the plant leg spring bow and a subsequent to the spring bow clamping leg with a clamping portion at the free end, and with one or more extending away from the busbar frame parts, each having two spaced side bars and the side bars interconnecting transverse webs and formed by the side webs and the transverse webs conductor lead-through opening, wherein the at least one clamping spring on the at least one busbar by conditioning the contact leg of the clamping spring on a crossbar and / or a holding element of the busbar is fixed so that the clamping portion under the spring force of the clamping spring acts in the direction of the busbar, so that between the clamping portion and the busbar a K Lemmstelle is formed for clamping the electrical conductor.
  • the invention further relates to a conductor terminal formed with such a spring terminal and a method for producing such a spring terminal.
  • the invention relates to the field of connecting electrical conductors by means of spring terminal contacts.
  • spring terminal contacts are used, for example, in conductor terminals, especially in connection terminals, especially in box terminals, used for electrically conductive connection of multiple electrical conductors together.
  • Such spring terminal contacts can also be used for example in PCB connectors, other connectors, terminal blocks and other electrical equipment.
  • WO 2014/124961 A1 a spring terminal contact and a connection terminal is disclosed.
  • the present invention has the object, in particular for electrical conductors in the form of stranded conductors to optimize the electrical contact with the busbar.
  • spring terminal contact also a method for its preparation should be specified.
  • the side webs can also be used to improve the electrical contacting in addition to the actual contact surface provided for the electrical contacting.
  • the side webs By forming at least one wing on at least one of the side bars, as explained, an improved lateral contact surface for the strands is provided, so that a substantial improvement in the electrical contact can be achieved thereby.
  • a particularly small-sized spring terminal contact can be provided for a connection terminal with improved electrical contact.
  • the spring terminal contact according to the invention is therefore particularly suitable for the transmission of higher currents and accordingly also for electrical conductors with a larger cross-section, eg for conductors up to 6 mm 2 .
  • a terminal point for clamping the electrical conductor is formed.
  • the nip directly between the Be formed clamping portion and the busbar, or indirectly, for example by another component in the power flow between the clamping portion and the busbar is arranged, for example, an additional sheet.
  • the at least one wing may be arranged in particular spaced from the clamping point on the spring terminal.
  • the wings of a frame part are arranged substantially symmetrically to each other. As a result, the electrical contacting of stranded conductors can be further improved.
  • the at least one wing points in the direction of a conductor receiving space formed in the conductor insertion direction behind the conductor lead-through opening of the spring terminal contact.
  • the at least one wing may thus be arranged somewhat obliquely (at an angle) to the insertion direction of an electrical conductor in the conductor leadthrough opening. If there are wings on both side bars, these may be e.g. Run towards each other in a funnel shape, so that an electrical conductor inserted into the conductor leadthrough opening opens into a receiving space tapering in the conductor insertion direction between the wings. In this way, the strands of the electrical conductor are slightly compressed due to the funnel-like arrangement of the wings, which further improves the electrical contact.
  • the at least one wing is designed as an area of material that is angled (bent) relative to the surface of the side web. This allows a simple and efficient production of the previously described spring terminal contact.
  • the at least one wing extends over at least two thirds of the distance between the transverse webs of the frame part along the side web. In this way, the electrical contacting of stranded conductors can be further improved because a relatively large lateral contact surface is created for the strands on the wing.
  • a terminal point is formed for electrical connection of the electrical conductor.
  • this clamping point can be formed in front of or behind the frame part or in the frame part, depending on the embodiment of the spring terminal contact. If the clamping point is arranged behind the frame part or at least behind the region on which the wing is formed on the frame part, an insertion bevel for the electrical conductor to be inserted can advantageously be formed by the at least one wing. This facilitates the insertion of the electrical conductor in the spring terminal contact or in the frame part and towards the terminal point. But even with another arrangement such that the clamping point is arranged in Leitereinsteckraum before the frame part or the area where the wing is integrally formed on the frame part, the at least one wing can serve as an insertion aid for the electrical conductor to be introduced.
  • the angle between the busbar plane on which the nip is formed, and the frame parts may advantageously be in the range of 60 degrees to 120 degrees. According to an advantageous embodiment of the invention it is provided that at least one of the frame parts is arranged substantially perpendicular to the busbar. This allows a simple insertion of the electrical conductor in the conductor passage opening in conjunction with a good electrical contact of the electrical conductor to the busbar.
  • At least one of the frame parts is formed integrally with the busbar.
  • the busbar with the frame part or the frame parts arranged thereon and the wing or the wings can be produced in one piece from a metal part, for example by a punching-bending process.
  • At least one of the frame parts is designed as a separate from the busbar frame member and the separate frame member is mounted in the busbar.
  • the frame element can in this case be held on the busbar by the force of the clamping springs acting between the transverse web and the frame part or the frame parts of the frame element and the busbar, in that the frame element supports the busbar, e.g. engages below.
  • holding elements in the form of retaining lugs may be provided on the busbar, which are engaged by transverse webs of the frame member.
  • the busbar has latching openings or latching recesses, engage in the latching fingers of the frame member to releasably connect the frame member to the busbar. In this way, a particularly flexible construction of a spring terminal contact is possible.
  • the clamping section is bent or bent away from the section of the clamping leg adjoining the spring bow in the direction of the busbar.
  • adjacent frame parts have an intermediate space between two spaced side webs of frame parts arranged side by side. If an actuator is provided for opening the nip, so this can protrude into the space between two frame parts, so that a small-sized conductor terminal with lever operation can be realized
  • the clamping portion has a smaller width than the remaining portion of the clamping leg.
  • At least one relatively laterally projecting relative to the clamping portion portion of the clamping section with respect to the wider portion of the clamping leg as an operating portion for opening a formed between the clamping portion of the clamping spring and the busbar clamping point for an electrical conductor by a the actuating portion cooperating actuator is provided. This allows a comfortable operation of the clamping spring for opening and closing the nip.
  • the above-mentioned object is further achieved by a conductor terminal for electrical conductors with an insulating material and with at least one spring terminal of the type described above.
  • the conductor terminal may be formed, for example, as a connection terminal.
  • the conductor terminal may include an actuator for opening the nip which cooperates with the operating portion.
  • the actuating element can protrude into the space between two frame parts, so that a small-sized conductor connection terminal can be realized with lever actuation.
  • the spring terminal contact can be made particularly efficient and inexpensive, since only a sheet metal part is required, which can be provided in a single punch-bending operation with the desired frame parts and the wings arranged thereon.
  • the stamping and bending process may e.g. be carried out such that from a flat, substantially flat sheet metal part first the contour of the busbar is punched with the frame parts and wings arranged thereon so that the frame parts have the corresponding spaces between adjacent frame parts and the corresponding conductor lead-through openings are formed. Then, the required bending steps can be performed, either first the wings are bent at the respective side bars and then the frame parts are bent relative to the busbar, or in reverse, first the frame parts are bent relative to the busbar and then the wings on the side bars be bent over.

  • the spring terminal contacts without the clamping springs are shown in these figures. Only in FIG. 9 the clamping portion 7 is partially shown.
  • the aforementioned wings 30 can be arranged on the two side bars 9a, 9b of a frame part 8. In particular, they can be arranged symmetrically with respect to one another so that a tapering of the gap between the wings 30 results in the conductor insertion direction L. Is recognizable in particular in the FIG. 8 in that the wings 30 provide a considerably enlarged contact surface 31 for the strands of a stranded electrical conductor.
  • FIGS. 9 and 10 show the spring terminal contact when using an electrical conductor in the form of a stranded conductor 32.
  • the stranded conductor 32 has an outer insulation 33 and strands 34 disposed therein. With a stripped region of the stranded conductor 32 this is used in the spring terminal contact by the clamping leg 7 presses the clamping spring from above the strands 34 and these against the Busbar 2 presses.
  • the relatively flexible strands 34 give way somewhat to this pressure and deviate somewhat laterally, so that they are pressed against the abutment surfaces 31 of the wings 30 in an increased manner. This is especially true in the FIG. 10 can be seen from the that the individual strands 34 laterally cling to the wings 30. As a result, the electrical contacting of the strands 34 to the busbar 2 is improved.
  • FIGS. 11 to 14 show the frame part 8 and the busbar 2 of a spring terminal contact of a further embodiment.
  • the clamping spring is not shown in this case, but will be explained in the following supplementary.
  • the clamping spring can z. B. similar to in FIG. 2 be designed recognizable.
  • FIG. 11 shows a side view of the illustrated component
  • the FIG. 12 a view correspond to the one in FIG. 11 shown viewing direction C
  • the FIG. 13 a sectional view of the component according to the in FIG. 12 marked section plane BB
  • the FIG. 14 a sectional view of the component according to the in FIG. 11 marked cutting plane AA.
  • the illustrated component has an integrally formed with the busbar 2 frame part 8, wherein a part of the busbar can form in particular the lower transverse web 11. Together with the side webs 9a, 9b and the upper crossbar 10, in turn, a frame part 8 is formed, through which a conductor leadthrough opening 12 is enclosed. On the frame part 8 protruding electrical connection contacts 36 may be arranged, for. B. in the form of contact pins that can be soldered into a circuit board.
  • the frame part 8 in each case has an integrally formed wing 30 formed in each of the side webs 9a, 9b.
  • the respective wing 30 is formed in the inner region of a respective side web 9a, 9b, so that a completely enclosed by the material of the respective side web 9a, 9b slot 38 is present.
  • clamping spring can rest with its clamping portion on the busbar 2, when no conductor is inserted.
  • a projecting towards the interior of the frame part 8 toward retaining lug 37 is formed on the upper cross bar 10, z. B. in the form of an impression in the material of the frame part 8.
  • the clamping spring can be hung with a correspondingly adapted opening or bore in the plant leg on the retaining lug 37 and is thus fixed to the frame part 8.
  • FIGS. 15 to 18 show in comparable representations like FIGS. 11 to 14 a further embodiment of such a component with a frame part 8 and an integrally formed therewith busbar 2.
  • Die FIG. 15 shows a side view of the illustrated component, the FIG. 16 a view correspond to the one in FIG. 15 shown viewing direction C, the FIG. 17 a sectional view of the component according to the in FIG. 16 marked section plane BB and the FIG. 18 a sectional view of the component according to the in FIG. 15 marked cutting plane AA.
  • each of the side webs 9a, 9b is separated from an end region of the respective side web 9a, 9b by longitudinal slits 39 introduced in the longitudinal direction, ie in the conductor insertion direction L, from the material of the respective side web, so that the respective wing 30 again points towards the interior of the frame part 8 can be issued, such.
  • the FIG. 16 clarified.
