Definitions

  • the invention relates to a contact clip for connecting an electrical conductor to a contact part, in particular an electrode, with two clamping parts pivotably mounted about an axis in relation to one another, between which a spring engages which compresses the front ends of the clamping parts which serve to clamp the contact part , as long as the rear ends of the clamping parts on the other side of the axis are not pressed together by hand to open the clamping connection, with clamping jaws at the front ends of the clamping parts, which clamping jaws are in contact with force when clamped, with an electrical connection inside one of the clamping parts, which electrically connects the electrical conductor with the associated clamping jaws, each with a box-shaped, one-sided open cavity in the rear ends of the clamping parts, which cavities are designed and spatially arranged so that they are at Schwenkbe Movements of the clamping parts interlock movably, with one cavity protruding with its opening in each clamping part position into the opening of the other cavity, so that in each clamping part position between the
  • DE-U-7 410 155 contact clips with two types of spring pressure are previously known.
  • the pivot pin which connects the two clamping parts, is surrounded by a spiral spring which presses the two clamping parts against one another with their clamping ends.
  • the coil spring is quite stable; however, their use brings with it problems of cleaning, so that application for medical purposes is hardly possible.
  • the subject of DE-U-7 410 155 includes the second type of spring pressure.
  • This object contains a spring which is designed as a ring sector. Such a spring poses no problems in terms of cleaning. However, the advantage gained in this way is paid for by the increased risk of the spring breaking at the attachment points of the ring sector.
  • a contact clip of the type mentioned is known. It is a clamp with which the connecting wires of a geophone can be detachably connected to a cable.
  • the contact clip comprises two relatively long, mutually pivotable clamping parts in the form of a clothespin.
  • the plastic clamping parts each have a box-shaped cavity in which a compression spring is arranged.
  • the electrical contact parts are metal tongues wrapped in wire, which are arranged on the mutually facing surfaces of the clamping parts and are each provided with a protrusion at their end.
  • a disadvantage of the known contact clip is that a reliable electrical contact to the contact part (connecting wire of the geophone) is not necessarily guaranteed, because the contact pressure is distributed linearly on the contact part in the area of the protrusions or the metal tongues wrapped by wire.
  • the connection to an electrode (round cross-section) for the acceptance of electrical physiological signals should lead to contact difficulties.
  • the use of wire-wrapped metal tongues, which are oriented essentially parallel to one another in the closed position of the contact clip complicates and complicates the manufacture of the clamping parts and thus the contact clip.
  • the object of the present invention is to attach a contact clip of the type mentioned at the outset, in which the clamping parts can be produced in a simple manner from plastic and which is particularly suitable for taking physiological signals from an electrode.
  • clamping parts are made together with the cavities as injection molded parts made of plastic and that the injection molded parts at the front ends carry partially overmolded clamping plates, which are arranged on the sides of the clamping parts and are formed with notches as the said clamping jaws .
  • the contact clamps according to the invention ensure contamination-free inclusion of the spreading spring. So there are no cleaning problems with regard to the spring, so that it can have any break-proof shape (spiral, screw, leaf shape or the like). The service life of the contact clip is therefore relatively long.
  • a contact clip consists of two clamping parts 1 and 2, which have an axis 3 pivotably mounted in opposite directions to one another.
  • Each clamping part 1, 2 has a metal clamping plate 4 or 5 on its head in a lateral position, which is formed on the base side to form clamping jaws 6 or 7 with notches 8 or 9.
  • the manually compressible counter ends 10 and 11 of the clamping parts 1 and 2 are provided with depressions or pressure points 12 and 13 against which the user's fingers can be pressed.
  • the end 10 of the upper clamping part 1 is used at the same time for connecting an electrical cable 14.
  • the connection is provided by means of an anti-kink sleeve 15.
  • the electrical conductor 16 of the line cable 14 is connected in the interior of the upper clamping part 1 via a clamp or solder connection 17 to the input of a high-frequency choke 18 or an electrical resistor.
  • the output of the choke 18 or of the resistor is electrically conductively connected to the clamping plate 4 via a further line section of the conductor 16. This results in an electrical connection between the clamping plate 4 and the conductor of the cable 14 via the choke 18 or the resistor.
  • Each manually operated end 10 and 11 of the clamping parts 1 and 2 has a cavity 19 and 21 in the area of the pressure points 12 and 13, respectively.
  • Both cavities 19 and 21 are formed by boxes which are open on one side and whose openings 20 and 22 face each other are directed.
  • the upper box (cavity 19) projects with its opening 20 under the opening 22 of the lower box (cavity 21).
  • a spring or compression spring 23 is inserted into the interior which is protected against the ingress of protection or the like.
  • this spring 23 is designed as a helical spring, which rests with one end on the bottom of the cavity 19 and with its other end on the bottom of the cavity 21 for the purpose of exerting pressure on both floors. Because of this constant pressure, the clamping jaws 6 and 7 are pressed together at the clamping ends of the clamping parts 1 and 2 to the position shown. If the contact clip or pliers are to be opened, pressure is exerted on the pressure points 12 and 13 by the fingers of the hand. The jaws 6 and 7 then open against the pressure of the spring 23.
  • the contact clip thus establishes a connection between the electrical conductor 14 and, for example, an electrode. It works with an unbreakable spring 23, which is protected against dirt and sits in a cavity inside the contact clip.
  • the clamping parts 1 and 2 are injection molded parts made of plastic.
  • the connections 15 and 17 for the electrical cable 14 including the choke 18 or the resistor are therefore completely encapsulated by plastic.
  • the sheets 4 and 5 are arranged on the outside of the clamping parts 1 and 2, respectively. Except for the released clamping jaws 6 and 7, they can also be encapsulated with plastic on all sides.
