Definitions

  • the present invention relates to the field of connection devices and / or electrical connection; the invention relates more particularly to an electrical connection device of the “wire clamp” type or of the protective foot type for connection to the earth.
  • EP 2 983 245 A1 discloses an electrical grounding device according to the preamble of claim 1.
  • the object of the invention is therefore to propose a simple solution to all or part of these problems.
  • the present invention relates to an electrical earth connection device for a wire clamp, the device comprising an earth connection part, and a support part, the earth connection part being taken in. pincer between the wire clamp and the support part and held in contact with the wire clamp, the earth connection part being made of a non-magnetic material, with a layer of a protective material deposited on the surface of the part earth connection.
  • the non-magnetic material is an aluminum alloy.
  • the protective material is tin, or zinc, or silver or gold.
  • a layer of a binding material is deposited on the surface of the ground connection piece, between the non-magnetic material and the layer of protective material.
  • the binding material is copper.
  • first electrical connection device 1 which we will also call a wire clamp, and an embodiment of which is shown in figure 2 .
  • the thread clamp comprises a connecting piece 12 in the form of a cylinder or a hollow parallelepiped, delimiting an open cavity or not, and passing through or not, suitable for receiving the ends of conducting wires of different shapes and / or dimensions, in particular of different diameters or lengths.
  • Each of the ends of this part is provided with a fixing means configured to fix the end of a conducting wire in contact with the connecting part.
  • the fixing means comprises a stirrup 2, 3, the stirrup being attached and held against one of the ends of the connecting piece 12, so that the end of the conductive wire is gripped. and held tight between the yoke 2, 3 and the surface of the connecting piece 12.
  • connection piece 12 is made of a conductive material which thus ensures electrical continuity between the conductive wires, the respective ends of which are fixed to each end of the connection piece 12.
  • a non-magnetic material other than copper is used for making the connecting piece 12, preferably an aluminum alloy.
  • a layer of a protective material is deposited on all or part of the surface of the connection piece 12.
  • the protective material can be tin, zinc, silver or gold.
  • tin will be used as a protective material.
  • a layer of copper is deposited on the surface of the connection piece 12, between the non-magnetic material and the layer of the protective material.
  • the thickness of this copper layer is between 1 ⁇ m and 6 ⁇ m.
  • the connecting piece or wire clamp 12 is housed inside an envelope or a box, in two parts 6, 7, as illustrated in figures 1 , 3 , and 6 , the case being made of insulating material, and in which are formed two openings allowing access respectively to the two ends of the clamp 12 for the passage and fixing of the ends of the conductive wires to be connected.
  • This ground connection piece 10 is made of a non-magnetic material, with a layer of a protective material deposited on the surface of the piece in order to protect it against oxidation, and preferably with a layer of copper deposited between the piece. non-magnetic material and the layer of protective material to promote attachment of the protective material.
  • the protective material can be tin, zinc, silver or gold. Preferably, tin will be used as a protective material.
  • this ground connection piece 10 is attached to the lower surface of the clamp 12 and held firmly in contact with the latter by a screw 9 which passes through the clamp 12 from top to bottom. ; this screw 9 also passes through the earth connection piece 10 before being screwed, by its threaded end, onto a support piece 16, provided with a threaded hole which cooperates with the threaded end of the screw 9, the earth connection part 10 resting on the support part 16; the earth connection piece is thus gripped and held clamped between the support piece 16 and the wire clamp 12.
