Definitions

  • the invention relates to a conductor connection terminal with at least one spring-loaded clamp connection, which has at least one clamping spring and at least one busbar, wherein a clamping leg of the clamping spring is prestressed relative to the busbar, so that an electrical conductor can be clamped under spring force between the clamping leg and a conductor connection side of the busbar.
  • a generic conductor connection terminal is in the form of a connecting terminal from the WO 2017/081001 A1 known.
  • the EN 10 2010 025 930 A1 reveals a terminal block with push-button operation.
  • the US2015/0372401 A1 discloses a spring-loaded connection and a conductor connection terminal with spring-loaded connection.
  • EN 10 2013 101 830 A1 discloses an electrical connection terminal and a method for assembling the same.
  • the invention is based on the object of further optimizing a conductor connection terminal, e.g. a connecting terminal, with regard to production costs and size.
  • a conductor connection terminal according to claim 1.
  • the support plate can provide a mechanically stable connection of the busbar with the clamping spring, or in the case of a connection terminal with the clamping springs.
  • the busbar itself does not have to be overly mechanically stable for this; increased stability is provided by the support plate.
  • Such a support plate can therefore absorb the high spring forces required for securely clamping an electrical conductor.
  • the support plate supports the busbar in the event of additional electrical load and increased thermal load, e.g. in the event of a permanent short circuit. Additional heat can be dissipated via the support plate.
  • the electrical connection provided by the busbar is further improved by means of the support plate.
  • a conductor connection terminal with such a construction can also be assembled using a machine.
  • the conductor connection terminal can also be provided with a self-supporting contact system.
  • a support plate within the meaning of the invention can, for example, be a component that is flat and/or U-shaped or in another suitable form and consists of electrically conductive material.
  • the support plate is arranged on the side of the busbar facing away from the conductor connection side. In this way, the support plate does not interfere with the insertion or removal of an electrical conductor at a terminal point.
  • One or more other components can be arranged between the support plate and the busbar. However, it must be ensured that sufficient force can be transmitted between the support plate and the busbar so that the support plate can fulfil its function of reducing or preventing deformation of the busbar caused by the clamping spring.
  • Other components in the sense mentioned above are, for example, conductive or non-conductive elements mounted below the busbar, i.e. between the busbar and the support plate. Conductive elements can be used to provide a branch and thus another connection option.
  • the support plate is directly in contact with the busbar.
  • the support plate can directly support the busbar, i.e. a direct transfer of force between the busbar and the support plate is possible.
  • the heat dissipation via the support plate and the support of the electrical properties of the busbar are optimized.
  • the support plate has at least one support surface running essentially parallel to the busbar and optionally at least one reinforcement section angled relative to the support surface, by means of which the area moment of inertia of the support plate is increased at least in the longitudinal direction of the busbar.
  • the support plate can exert a high support effect with respect to the busbar while being easy to shape and manufacture.
  • the area moment of inertia of the support plate is increased by the angled reinforcement section or the edge resulting from the angle compared to an embodiment of the support plate without such an angle.
  • the angled reinforcement section also runs in the longitudinal direction of the busbar, whereby slight deviations from the longitudinal direction of the busbar (oblique arrangement) are also possible.
  • the support plate can, for example, have an angled reinforcement section on both sides of the support surface, so that the support plate has a U-shape in cross section.
  • the lateral angled reinforcement sections e.g. in the form of webs (u-shape), are not absolutely necessary, but make the support plate more stable.
  • the support plate has at least one support surface running essentially parallel to the busbar, which has at least one recess, and the support plate is fixed to the busbar by means of at least one fixing element protruding through the recess.
  • the support plate is fixed to the busbar by means of a positive connection through the protruding fixing element. This allows a particularly reliable fixation of the support plate to the busbar, which allows a high force transmission between the busbar and the support plate.
  • the protruding fixing element can also protrude through an opening in the busbar.
  • the protruding fixing element can also be designed as a fixing element protruding from the busbar.
  • the protruding fixing element is an integral part of the clamping spring, in particular part of an extended end section of a contact leg of the clamping spring.
  • the protruding fixing element has a mushroom head shape in cross section, at least in the area that protrudes through the recess. This allows a particularly reliable positive locking of the support plate to the busbar while at the same time making the arrangement easy to assemble.
  • the protruding fixing element forms a mushroom head pin with its mushroom head shape, with which a mushroom head lock can be implemented on the support plate.
  • the protruding fixing element can be designed as a flat sheet metal part in the area of its mushroom head shape, for example.
  • the mushroom head shape can be defined by a narrow point in the end area of the fixing element (Mae West shape), recesses or other suitable shapes to implement a positive connection.
  • the support plate can be fixed to the busbar by a linear movement and/or a rotary movement using the fixing element.
  • the support plate can also be fixed to the busbar by a combination of linear movement and rotary movement using the fixing element.
  • connecting terminals in particular is the particularly small design and cost-effective manufacturing process.
  • the first spring-loaded terminal connection can thus be designed like the spring-loaded terminal connection of the conductor connection terminal mentioned at the beginning, and the second spring-loaded terminal connection can also be designed like the spring-loaded terminal connection of the conductor connection terminal mentioned at the beginning.
  • the busbar of the conductor connection terminal mentioned at the beginning is then a single continuous busbar in the connection terminal, which thus connects the two spring-loaded terminal connections to one another electrically and, to a certain extent, mechanically.
  • the first spring-loaded terminal connection can have a first clamping spring, which has a clamping leg for clamping the first electrical conductor against a first clamping point of the busbar and a contact leg for supporting the clamping spring.
  • the second spring-loaded terminal connection may have a second clamping spring having a clamping leg for clamping the second electrical conductor against a second clamping point of the busbar and a contact leg for supporting the second clamping spring.
  • the busbar has at least one through-opening which is arranged between the first and the second clamping point, wherein an extended end section of the contact leg of the first and/or the second clamping spring is guided through the through-opening of the busbar and is fastened to the support plate as a fixing element.
  • the through-opening of the busbar can in particular be arranged at least substantially flush with the recess of the support plate, so that one and the same fixing element can be guided through the through-opening of the busbar and the recess of the support plate.
  • both the first and the second clamping spring can have a fixing element as an integral component of the respective clamping spring, in particular in the form of an extended end section of a contact leg of the clamping spring.
  • the support plate extends along the busbar from the first spring-loaded terminal connection to the second spring-loaded terminal connection.
  • the support plate comparable to the busbar, can be designed as a continuous component that exerts its supporting effect both in the area of the first and in the area of the second spring-loaded terminal connection.
  • the first and/or the second clamping spring is designed in a loop shape, wherein the respective contact leg is bent in an extended end section of the respective clamping spring in the direction of the busbar.
  • the clamping spring can be advantageously designed in one piece with the fixing element for fixing the support plate to the busbar.
  • the first clamping spring touches the second clamping spring in the area of their respective contact legs.
  • the conductor connection terminal 9 shown is designed as a connecting terminal. It is constructed essentially symmetrically with respect to a vertical axis of symmetry and has a first spring-loaded clamp connection 1 and a second spring-loaded clamp connection 2 to the left and right of the vertical axis of symmetry.
  • the first and second spring-loaded clamp connections 1, 2 are arranged in an insulating housing 4, 5 of the conductor connection terminal 9.
  • the insulating housing 4, 5 can, for example, be designed in at least two parts, e.g. from an upper housing part 4 and a base part 5 that can be connected to the upper housing part 4 by locking elements 50.
  • the conductor connection terminal 9 can also be designed in such a way that there is a spring-loaded clamp connection on one side and another electrically conductive connection on the other side, e.g. a screw connection. The support plate function is retained.
  • the first spring-loaded terminal connection 1 has a loop-shaped, multiply angled first clamping spring 11.
  • the first clamping spring 11 has a clamping leg 12 at one end, which serves to clamp an electrical conductor introduced through a first conductor insertion opening 10 against a first clamping point 31 of a busbar 3. The electrical conductor can thus be clamped to a conductor connection side 39 of the busbar 3.
  • the clamping leg 12 of the first clamping spring 11 is followed by a spring arch 14, to which a contact leg 15 of the first clamping spring 11 is then connected.
  • the first clamping spring 11 extends further in the area of the contact leg 15 into an extended end section 16, in which the material of the first clamping spring 11 is finally bent in a vertical area 17 in the direction of the busbar 3.
  • the end section 16 of the contact leg 15 extends beyond the vertical area 17 further downwards through a through opening 30 of the busbar 3 to the end piece 71 of the first clamping spring 11.
  • the support plate 8 is located below the busbar 3, i.e. on the side of the busbar 3 facing away from the conductor connection side 39.
  • the support plate 8 rests against the busbar 3 with its support surface 80.
  • the support plate 8 extends essentially from the first clamping point 31 to the second clamping point 32.
  • the end section 16 extends through the recess 82 in the support surface 80, so that the end piece 71 ends below the support surface 80.
  • the second clamping spring 21 can, for example, be shaped in the same way as the first clamping spring 11.
  • the second spring-force clamping connection 2 has a loop-shaped, multiply angled second clamping spring 21.
  • the second clamping spring 21 has a clamping leg 22 at one end, which serves to clamp an electrical conductor introduced through a second conductor insertion opening 20 against a second clamping point 32 of the busbar 3.
  • the electrical conductor can be clamped to the conductor connection side 39 of the busbar 3.
  • the clamping leg 22 of the second clamping spring 21 is followed by a spring arch 24, to which a contact leg 25 of the second clamping spring 21 is then followed.
  • the contact leg 25 rests against an inner wall region 42 of the insulating housing 4, 5 and is at least partially supported there against the forces absorbed by the clamping leg 22.
  • the second clamping spring 21 extends further in the region of the contact leg 25 into an extended end section 26, in which the material of the second clamping spring 21 is finally bent in a vertical region 27 in the direction of the busbar 3.
  • the end section 26 of the contact leg 25 extends beyond the vertical region 27 further downwards through the through-opening 30 of the busbar 3 and the recess 82 in the support surface 80 as far as the end piece 72 of the first clamping spring 21, so that the end piece 72 ends below the support surface 80.
  • the Figure 1 shows the first spring-loaded terminal connection 1 and the second spring-loaded terminal connection 2 in the closed state, ie the first and second actuating levers 19, 29 are in the closed position.
  • the clamping leg 12 of the first clamping spring 11 touches the first clamping point 31 of the busbar 3 at the end
  • the clamping leg 22 of the second clamping spring 21 touches the second clamping point 32 of the busbar 3 at the end.
  • busbar 3 has indentations in the area of its first and second clamping points 31, 32, through which the material of the busbar 3 is slightly protruded upwards, i.e. in the direction of the respective clamping leg 12, 22. This improves the clamping of a connected electrical conductor.
  • the busbar 3 is designed as a single piece as a flat, short busbar section.
  • the support plate 8 mechanically stabilizes the busbar 3 in this area and also optimizes it in terms of electrical conduction and heat dissipation.
  • connection terminal can also be designed as a double connection terminal or a multiple connection terminal.
  • double connection terminal there are two clamping points arranged next to each other on each conductor insertion side, and accordingly the arrangement of the first clamping spring on the one hand and the second clamping spring on the other hand is also double.
  • first clamping spring on the one hand and the second clamping spring on the other hand is also double.
  • two clamping springs 11 and 21 arranged next to each other are connected to each other via a common vertical area 17 and 27 that is continuous in width and are attached to the busbar 3 via this.
  • Each vertical area 17, 27 has, e.g.
  • the clamping springs 11 and 21 arranged next to each other can be operated independently of each other, ie they are not connected to each other in the other areas, beyond the common vertical areas 17 and 27.
  • the end pieces 71, 72 are designed in the shape of a mushroom head. In this way, the respective end pieces 71, 72 also form fixing elements for the positive connection of the support plate 8 to the busbar. This also fixes the clamping springs 11, 21 to the arrangement of the busbar 3 and the support plate 8.
  • connection terminal is designed as a multiple connection terminal, there are more than two clamping points arranged next to each other on each conductor insertion side, e.g. 3, 4, 5 or more.
  • a common through-opening can be provided in the busbar 3 and the support plate 8 for groups of clamping springs or for all clamping springs for their fixation to the busbar.
  • the first clamping spring 11 is supported in the vertical region 17 on the vertical region 27 of the second clamping spring 21, i.e. the clamping springs 11, 21 support each other in the region of their vertical sections 17, 27.
  • the vertical region 17 also forms a conductor stop when the first conductor is inserted into the insulating housing.
  • the vertical region 27 also forms a conductor stop when the second conductor is inserted into the insulating housing.
  • the conductor connection terminal 9 can be designed as a simple conductor connection terminal, in which there is one conductor insertion opening 10, 20 on each side. It can also be designed as a double or multiple terminal. In this case, two or more first conductor insertion openings 10 and two or more second conductor insertion openings 20 are arranged next to each other on each side. For such embodiments, a different design of the respective actuating lever 19, 29 can be advantageous.
  • the Figure 5 shows an advantageous embodiment of an actuating lever 6, which can be used as a first or second actuating lever 19, 29, in the event that the conductor connection terminal has only one conductor insertion opening 10, 20 on each side.
  • the actuating lever 6 has a manual actuating area 60 (grip area) at which the actuating lever 6 can be actuated by a user.

  • the actuating lever 6 is fork-shaped in the area of the bearing axis 61, with a recessed area 65 in the middle, with which the actuating lever 6 can be slipped over the clamping spring located between them.
  • the clamping spring then has laterally protruding application areas 13 and 23, respectively, at which the clamping spring can be acted upon via actuating areas 62 of the actuating lever 6.
  • a rear contour of the actuating lever 6 has two bearing areas 63, 64 arranged at an angle to one another, via which the actuating lever is supported in the insulating housing and/or on the busbar 3. In the closed actuating position, the actuating lever 6 rests on the bearing area 63, and in the open position on the bearing area 64.
  • the bearing axis 61 is accommodated in a groove (not shown) arranged in the upper housing part 4 and aligned essentially perpendicular to the busbar 3, in order to be able to absorb a deflection occurring during the pivoting movement of the actuating lever 19, 29 caused by the bearing areas 63, 64, which slide on the busbar 3 during the pivoting movement of the actuating lever 19, 29.
  • the Figure 4 shows a design of an actuating lever 6 which is designed for a conductor connection terminal in which there are two spring-loaded terminal connections arranged next to one another on each side of the housing. Accordingly, the entire actuating lever 6 is designed to be wider and has two adjacent, recessed areas 65 through which the respective clamping springs can be guided. Accordingly, three loading areas 62 are provided. The middle loading area 62 acts simultaneously on the two adjacent clamping springs on one side of the conductor connection terminal 9.
  • the conductor connection terminal 9 according to Figure 6 corresponds in its essential structure to the previously established Figures 1 to 3 explained conductor connection terminal 9. Therefore, the differences will be discussed below.
  • the Figure 6 shows the first spring-loaded clamp connection 1 with the first actuating lever 19 open, such that the first clamping point 31 is not touched by the clamping leg 12 and any electrical conductor that may have been clamped there beforehand can be removed. It can be seen that the clamping leg 12 of the first clamping spring 11 is then removed from the first clamping point 31.
  • the second spring-loaded clamp connection 2 is shown in the closed state, ie the second actuating lever 29 is in the closed position. In this state, the clamping leg 22 of the second clamping spring 21 touches the second clamping point 32 of the busbar 3 at the end.

  • the clamping springs 11, 21 may initially, ie before they are attached to the busbar 3, not yet be bent outwards in their respective end pieces 18, 28 as in Figure 1 can be seen. They can initially run essentially in a straight line. After mounting the clamping springs 11, 21 in the through hole 30 of the busbar 3, a further manufacturing step takes place in which the end pieces 18, 28 are bent outwards, ie in the direction of the respective conductor insertion opening 10, 20, and then engage behind the recess 82.
