Description

The invention relates to a Schnellverschraubung, in particular for connecting multi-part assemblies which are mutually fixable in different positions, in particular assemblies for electrical equipment or applications, consisting of a first connecting part formed as a threaded rod or screw, each with external thread and a second connecting part formed as a counterpart or nut, in each case with female thread complementary to the external thread according to claim 1.

From the German utility model DE 93 16 867 U1 is a fastening solution previously known, with a backup of a threaded bolt to be held on a part regardless of the length of the threaded bolt in the shortest possible time while avoiding expensive screws is reached.

In this regard, two pockets in the screwing direction are successively offset from one another, which also have only partially encircling internal thread on diagonally opposite wall regions, that is, only in the direction of the central longitudinal axis of the nut body from these two imperfect threaded parts is formed in cooperation on a both pockets projecting through threaded bolts completely acting thread and there is the possibility to push by pivoting the nut body this without rotational movements via a threaded rod without engagement of the thread as far as the stop on the part to be held. By pivoting back into a coaxial position with the threaded bolt, the desired threaded engagement is achieved.

In addition, a quick release for battery terminals according to known DE 10 2006 020 754 A1 , The quick release has a clamping body with clamping jaws. The jaws are mutually adjustable by closing a side of the battery terminal extending locking element and a counterpart and thereby clamped to the pole. A secure assembly is achieved in that a lever is pivotally mounted about a closure element receiving, arranged perpendicular to the axis of the closure element rotary axis element, in such a way that the pivot plane of the lever is substantially parallel to the axis of the closure element.

In known terminal and connection arrangements for external lightning protection, for example after DE 20 2014 000 454 U1 or DE 10 2011 103 415 B4, it is assumed that terminals have a contact plate, which is overlapped by a clip.

Such stirrups have formations for receiving conductor sections and have a bearing surface with a bore for a clamping screw or a clamping pin. In the area of the bore, an embossing for the creation of a bearing surface for a fastening means, in particular a nut can be provided beyond.

After the conductor sections have been brought into a corresponding position between the contact plate and cross member, a tightening of the screw is done using conventional or modified for the particular application, nuts and bolts, which in most cases a tool in the form of a wrench or a hex key must be used ,

The use of the knee lever principle for quick release clamps, in particular for attachment of surgical aids, such as retractors or peripheral surgical techniques to a frame system is for example from EP 2 151 197 A1 known. Such a known quick-release clamp has two clamping elements provided with a central receptacle for a draw bolt, wherein the clamping element to be connected to the frame system has two connected legs. The second clamping element can be executed as a one-part leg, wherein the counter-leg is formed by an outer surface portion of one of the legs of the first clamping part. With such a quick clamp, it is very easy and without tools to bring about a clamping connection between two or more parts, however, the quick release is extremely limited, so that for each application of the connection of appropriate surgical tools a variety of dimensionally adapted quick release clamps must be kept.

The fastening device for sanitary equipment after DE 42 10 682 A1 solves the task to allow the mounting of a frame on a frame at an unknown distance in a simple manner, with a secure and permanent attachment is guaranteed.

In this regard, spacer bolts, designed as threaded rods, used, wherein the threaded rods have two, opposite, just flattened sides. The respective holding element has an internal thread for receiving the spacer bolt. The retaining element has a longitudinal slot which is only slightly narrower than the narrowest side of the spacer pin. Such a quick fastening has the advantage that, after the Distance bolt of the closure element has been passed through the mounting frame, the spacer bolt extends into the retaining element and engage by a rotation about the longitudinal axis of the closure element integrally formed on the surface of the spacer pin engaging teeth in the corresponding counter teeth in the opening of the retaining element. During the turning process is due to the tensioning device set a bias on the closure element, which prevents an independent release of the quick attachment.

The engaging teeth after DE 42 10 682 A1 should not be formed thread-like, since there are free spaces between the sections concerned.

To accomplish a final and secure attachment a clamping device with support and abutment is present, in which both in the support and in the abutment at least two clamping teeth are formed. The tensioning teeth have a short steep flank, which runs almost axially, and a long flat flank, so that a sawtooth-like structure results. To lock yet a considerable effort is required, which can be applied regularly only with the use of a tool, which is a disadvantage especially in difficult installation conditions and circumstances.

From the foregoing, it is an object of the invention to provide an advanced quick-fit, especially for connecting multi-part assemblies, which are mutually fixable in different positions, in particular assemblies for electrical equipment or applications, which on the one hand allows a fast connection of the module or components and on the other it allows to perform the connection without tools.

Since these connecting components or assemblies must be fixed depending on the specific application situation at different distances from each other, with or without liners or other parts, it would be necessary in principle, based on the desired screw on the application, which has the largest distance to be bridged having the parts to be joined. This in turn means that either a very lengthy and cumbersome Schraubprocedere must be performed when parts must be bolted at a shorter distance or on the other hand screws, bolts or threaded rods must be shortened on site. Such work, in particular a shortening of a screw, a bolt or a threaded rod is certainly relatively easy to carry out under workshop conditions, but not when mounted or connected on a construction site or other difficult conditions, for example on a house roof, electrical equipment or facilities , These are in particular devices for external lightning protection, which are naturally at the highest point of a building or an industrial plant.

Another object of the invention is that to achieve the necessary forces to connect the modules, that is, with regard to the required adhesion and this frictional connection can be achieved without the use of tools.

Ultimately, the quick-release also allow the use of screws, threaded rods, bolts or nuts, which have a so-called biting thread. By devious thread is meant a modified by mechanical influence thread geometry, which means that without re-cutting the thread, a use of the corresponding bonding agent is no longer possible.

The object of the invention is achieved by a Schnellverschraubung according to the feature combination according to claim 1, wherein the dependent claims represent at least expedient refinements and developments. According to the invention, moreover, the special use and the use of the quick connector according to the invention according to claim 12.

It is therefore assumed that a quick-fitting, which serves to connect multi-part assemblies, these assemblies must be fixed to each other in different positions depending on the application and application. These may in particular be assemblies for electrical equipment or applications, without the invention being limited to such an application.

The quick connector consists of a first connecting part, designed as a threaded rod, threaded screw or threaded bolt, each with an external thread and a second connecting part. The second connecting part is designed as a counterpart, in particular as a nut, and has in each case a female thread complementary to the external thread.

According to the invention, both the external thread and the internal thread on at least two opposite, extending in the screw direction longitudinal sides are cleared or flattened, wherein the clearing at the first connection part at least over a longitudinal side portion, starting from a thread crest and the second connecting part over the entire inner thread length or internal thread depth extends.

The first and second connecting parts formed in this way can be displaced axially relative to one another in a position where the cleared longitudinal sides are virtually opposite one another and be brought into a position in which a contact with the connecting parts is achieved. If this position is given, a rotational displacement between the first and second connecting part a positional displacement of the parts is effected to each other, which causes the corresponding portions of the inner and outer threads mesh with each other, with the result of forming a classic non-positive threaded connection.

In a first embodiment, it is assumed that screws, bolts or threaded rods of originally circular cross-section, wherein the corresponding external thread is rolled or cut. Subsequently, the thread is cleared out, for example by grinding or milling. It is conceivable, however, as a threaded rod or bolt to go out of a square bar and to provide them only on the flanks with a thread, then according to the mother or the counterpart has an analog square cross-section with flank thread segments.

In a further development of the invention, the first connecting part consists of several, divided in the transverse direction thread segments, each having a clearing.

The individual thread segments are mutually releasably non-positively and / or positively connected, and positioned to each other by rotation, that optionally all thread segments form a lying in a plane, flushing Ausräumungsfläche or individual thread segments can be converted by rotation in a position in which the respective thread segment -Errungsungsflächen are at an angle to each other.

The individual thread segments may have a respective axial projection and recess, wherein a threaded connection is provided between the extension and the recess.

After, for example, a screw formed in this way or a bolt provided with thread segments is inserted into a counterpart designed according to the invention, for example designed as a nut, the thread segments are twisted in a first step in a screwing movement, so that when the screwing movement continues necessary adhesion for making the connection results.

The advantage of such a solution is that with a correspondingly segmented screw and a screw of great length, adapted to the components to be joined, a long screwing is not necessary, but provided with threaded segments screw through the second connecting part according to the invention, designed as a counterpart or Mother introduced quickly and by turning then the actual screw and traction process can be realized.

In one embodiment of the invention, a locking wedge can be used or driven, which serves as a backup of the frictional connection in the field of clearing after successful force-locking connection.

It is within the meaning of the invention that both the first connecting part and the second connecting part can be used in combination with a conventional full-thread screw or full-threaded nut.

If necessary, a frictional screw can be secured using the first and second connecting parts according to the invention characterized in that then a classic self-locking nut is screwed onto a free end of a bolt or a screw with Ausräumungsflächen.

In the invention, the first connection part on or in the screw head or on the immersed in the second connecting part, opposite end of the threaded rod means for quick clamping in the form of a lockable lever, in particular a toggle lever.

This development of the invention perfects the desired tool-free handling when executing the quick-fitting.

In a related embodiment, the screw head or the end of the threaded rod on at least one transverse bore, wherein in the bore a, connected to the aforementioned lever or connectable axis is used, which has a cross-sectional area which deviates from the cross-sectional area of the bore.

For example, if the bore cross-section is circular and the cross-section of the axis corresponds to a semicircle, a clamping force between the to be connected by a pivoting movement of the lever or the axis Components, respectively, the screw are applied, so that the desired adhesion occurs.

The axle may have at least one recess or a nose for fixing the lever. The lever can be performed here, for example, as a U-shaped bracket or as a lever with angling.

It is also conceivable to provide a predetermined breaking point on the lever or on one or both axle ends, such that after execution of the quick-fitting and additional clamping by means of the lever of the lever or located outside of the bore axis portions are removable. As a result, an anti-theft device can be created in a light form.

In a further embodiment of the invention, it is possible to provide at least one end of the axle with a tapered tip or wedge-shaped to exert on the quick-release connection already when driving or inserting the axle a further force.

The lever or the axle can be fixed in the reached end position after quick clamping. For this purpose, for example, a claw or a latching hook can be formed on the connecting component, which encompasses a corresponding end of the lever, so that an unintentional release of the quick-fitting is effectively prevented even under dynamic loads.

According to the invention in particular the use of the presented quick-fitting as a connection means for a lightning protection, grounding or equipotential bonding terminal, the corresponding terminal has a supervisor and a contact plate and sections between the supervisor and contact plate electrical conductors can be arranged and this electrical conductors are used and used can have a completely different cross-section or different dimensions in the cross-sectional direction. Regardless of the particular conductor, a lengthy and time-consuming screwing in or loosening of a nut on a threaded bolt is avoided. Rather, a plug movement with subsequent rotation can be made in the connecting direction, wherein the final adhesion is achieved by using the knee lever principle as explained above.

The invention will be explained below with reference to exemplary embodiments and with the aid of figures.

For identical or equivalent components or assemblies identical reference numerals are used in the following description of the embodiments, even if this is not explained again in the respective description of the figures.

In the embodiment according to the illustrations according to 1A-C is assumed by a lightning protection or equipotential bonding terminal, which is a contact plate 1 owns that with a ripper 2 interacts.

The contact plate 1 and the supervisor 2 are fixed by a screw connection to each other, wherein the formations in the contact plate 1 or the supervisor 2 serve the inclusion of sections of electrical conductors, as the 6A-C show by way of example.

The quick connector according to the embodiment is based on a first connecting part, which as a threaded rod 3 is realized.

A second connecting part is the contact plate in the example shown 1 which has a through hole.

This through hole has an evacuated internal thread 4 on. The corresponding clearing areas 5 lie as well as the Ausräumungsflächen 6 the threaded rod 3 ,

The clearing on the threaded rod 3 extends over the entire length, but this is not mandatory. For example, in the header area 7 the threaded rod 3 also a continuous thread without Ausräumungsfläche be present or it is in the head area 7 to act a completely unthreaded section or the formation of a screw head.

In any case, however, the respective excavation area extends 6 from the thread crest 8th in the screwing direction of the threaded rod 3 on the long sides.

The threaded rod 3 still takes washers 9 on, as in the representations of 1B and 1C is apparent.

Starting from the position of the items according to the 1A Now the threaded rod through the contact plate using the local Recess pushed, then the position according to 1B results. By turning the threaded rod 3 90 ° results in the desired quick-release fitting. This position is in the 1C recognizable.

The final traction is made using the lever 10 causes.

In this regard, has one end of the threaded rod 3 a circular hole on.

In this circular bore is an axis-shaped end 11 of the lever 10 inserted (see 1A and 1B ). It has the axle-shaped end 11 one of the cross-section of the hole in the threaded rod 3 different cross-sectional area. In particular, has the axis-shaped end 11 a semicircular cross section. Will then the lever 10 starting from the position after 1B in a position according to 1C pivoted, the position of the axle-shaped end changes 11 , as a result, a toggle force on the washer 9 comes to act and the corresponding adhesion of the parts to be joined, namely the contact plate 1 and the supervisor 2 is made.

In the embodiment of the 2A-C is made of a two-piece clamp comprising a clamping base 12 and a clamping shell 13 went out.

Two opposite legs of the terminal lower part 12 have a bore with evacuated internal thread analogous to that formed in the contact plate 1 after the 1A-C ,

Clamp base 12 and terminal shell 13 be with the aid of the invention designed screws 14 connected.

The screws 14 have a screw head 15 with single slot or Phillips on.

The respective thread of the screws 14 is cleared at two opposite, extending in the screw direction longitudinal sides, so has clearing surfaces 6 on.

The screws 14 be in a first step using the recesses 17 in the terminal shell 13 inserted and inserted, with the threaded surfaces 18 the screws when pushing each of the corresponding Ausräumungsfläche 5 the terminal lower part 12 are opposite. By subsequent 90 ° rotation of the respective screw 14 with screw head 15 results in a meshing of the threaded portions of the clamp base 12 with the respective screw 14 with the desired adhesion.

The 3A and 3B show an embodiment of an equipotential bonding terminal, again consisting of contact plate 1 and supervisors 2 with inventive quick-fitting as based on 1A-C explained.

In contrast to the illustration and the embodiment of the 1A-C is according to 3A and 3B assumed a solution in which the lever 10 from an axis 19 is separable.

As shown 3A and 3B indicates the axis 19 a nose-like extension 20 on, which has a cross-sectional area, that of a recess in the corresponding end of the lever 10 is complementary. After execution of the quick-release, the lever can 10 from the corresponding end of the axle 19 be deducted, so that an anti-theft device is guaranteed.

The 4A and 4B show a development of the variant between separation of axis and lever, but in the case of 4A and 4B one end of the axle 19 a recess 21 in which a nose-like extension 21 of the lever 10 intervenes.

In the embodiment, using the 5A-C there is a development of the lever 10 such that it is U-shaped or bow-shaped.

The bow-shaped lever 22 has a weakening section 23 to after the quick-release operation, the bow-shaped lever 22 to be able to spread, as in the 5B is shown with the result that the hanger 22 can be removed and in this way also a safeguard against unauthorized operation can be realized, as the 5C presents.

The 6A-C now show a variant of the quick connector according to the invention for a lightning protection or equipotential bonding with each recorded electrical conductors 24 ,

6A shows the still loose, force-free connection between the contact plate and Überleger 1 ; 2 with recorded electrical conductors 24 ,

6B the condition after execution of a 90 ° rotation with respect to the threaded rod using the lever 10 and the 6C Completion of the quick-release procedure by pivoting the lever 10 starting from a quasi-vertical position in a nearly horizontal or level position with appropriate adhesion.

In the example of the 7A-C in turn, is made of a one-piece lever 10 assumed that has an axis-shaped extension, designed as a cone 25. In this regard, first, a wedge-shaped driving the corresponding conical end 25 done as the sectional views of the 7B and 7C demonstrate. Is then the final position according to 7A reached, the tilting movement of the lever 10 like in the 6C shown executed.

With the help of 9 Let us illustrate how an additional securing of the quick connector can take place.

In this regard is from the screw 14 with screw head 15 assumed, with the screw 14 opposite clearing areas 6 has. Likewise, a mother has 26 a partial thread 27 and opposite clearing areas 28 on. After reaching the desired position between screw 14 and mother 26 can the locking wedge 27a in the open space between recess 6 the screw 14 and the corresponding inner surface of the nut 26 be driven, as can be understood by the expert from the sequence of the illustration of FIG. 9.

The lever 10 with its axis-shaped end 11 like in the 8A and 8B represented by a hook-shaped nose 28a be held in its final position clamped.

This hook-shaped nose 28a can at the Überleger 2 be formed or a part of the same.

In the previous embodiments, it was assumed that the threaded rod 3 or the screw 14 a corresponding recess for receiving the axle-shaped end 11 or the axis 19 has.

In quasi reversal of the principle of the invention, but it is also possible, a mother 29 with opposite formations 30 to provide, in each case an axial end 11 a corresponding partial lever 10 intervenes. The 10B and 10C make it clear how by pivoting the two levers 10 with their respective axle-shaped ends 11 a quick clamping can be accomplished.

The self-explanatory 11A and 11B and 12A and 12B show the principal possibility of a screw according to the invention 14 with a standard fully threaded nut 31 connect to ( 11A and 11B ) or, as in the 12A and 12B is shown, a nut according to the invention 26 with clearing areas 28 with a standard full thread screw 32 to combine.

A further development of the exemplary embodiments shows the quick-fitting together with possible applications according to the 13 - 15 ,

In this case, the first connecting part according to the invention, for example designed as a screw, is realized in such a way that the corresponding screw consists of several thread segments divided in the transverse direction 33 consists.

The in the 13A The thread segment screw shown in an exploded view is formed by screw-connecting the individual segments 33 , wherein an upper one of the thread segments 33 in the screw head 34 passes.

According to the illustrations of FIGS. 13B and 13D are in a first position all Ausräumungsflächen 6 the thread segments 33 alignment.

In this condition, the thread segment screw can be pulled in one go by the nut 29 be inserted with the appropriate Ausräumungsflächen. Then takes a rotational movement as in the 13C shown, the thread segments move to each other, as in principle in the 13E such as 13F is traceable. This leads to a quasi-genuine screwing with usual frictional effects, even without additional leverage or additional tension.

Examples of applications of screws with thread segments 33 show the representations according to the 14A-D and 15A-D , In this case, components of different thicknesses are connected to each other with a force fit.

It is understandable that, depending on the resulting overall thickness of the components 35 and 36 the number of desired segments 33 the corresponding screw can be set in advance. If components of other dimensions are available on site, a corresponding thread segment can be removed, but also a further thread segment can be added.

In principle, it is possible to design the lever 10 or 22 shown in the figures in such a way that, in the tensioned state, it rests against a flattened point and can thus be positioned in its position. Also other fixations of the lever as the example shown with hook-shaped nose 28a are conceivable without departing from the inventive idea.

The bow-shaped lever 22 also does not have to have a weakening section 23, but may have resilient properties in order to be able to remove and remove these quasi by spreading from the axis or the axle ends.

The pressure force for the lever quick-fitting can also be applied or generated between the components to be connected by means of an axial bore extending in the longitudinal direction of the screw.

When forming a conical or conical axle end or lever, it is possible to always achieve a uniform starting position of the lever by moving the lever in the receiving bore even with thread tolerances, to then produce reproducible clamping and clamping forces during pivoting of the lever with the following axis rotation ,

In the case of the thread segment screw, the lengths of the individual segments are selected such that, after the segments have been twisted, threads of the screw are always in engagement with threads of the counter thread of the nut.
