Definitions
- the invention relates to a cross connector with a cross bar and on the underside thereof protruding tabs for terminal blocks with perforated busbars for receiving the tabs.
- the busbars extending in the row depth of the terminal block each have two plug openings oriented in row depth.
- the cross connectors are U-shaped plug-in elements.
- a corresponding cross connector element In order to create the desired cross connections for distributing the current from one to the affected further terminal blocks within the arrangement, a corresponding cross connector element must always be inserted in this arrangement in a seamless sequence from terminal block to terminal block.
- Many cross connector plug-in elements have to be kept in stock and the assembly effort is very high. The disadvantage is that one is very bound here in the arbitrariness of the establishment of cross connections in a series of terminal blocks, because in this embodiment it is not possible to omit even one cross connector plug element in a succession of these elements.
- a plurality of spacing or connecting elements are arranged on a cross bar, which extend as far as the busbars of the terminal blocks, sometimes also via predetermined breaking points.
- the end area reaching to the busbars carries a connecting screw which is to be screwed into a threaded hole in the busbar (DE-OS-2 357 052, DE-OS-2 914 192).
- the production of such cross connectors is relatively expensive.
- the need for a threaded hole in the conductor rail is also more expensive. It takes a relatively long time to assemble the screw connections.
- a contact plate with a plurality of contacts in which the contact field consists of a plurality of flat contacts, rows of such flat contacts being connected at their upper ends to a common current-conducting rail.
- the flat contacts are rotated with their flat plane transverse to the longitudinal profile of the upper rail, for which purpose they are partially notched in their transition region to the rail such that they are conductively connected to the rail with only half of their total cross section.
- the present invention has for its object to provide a cross connector of the generic type, which makes it possible to quickly and easily make any desired cross connections quickly and easily in a row of terminal blocks, and this to ensure sufficient with a simple construction. Power transmission cross-sections even in the tightest of spaces.
- the cross connector according to the invention is a very easy to manufacture stamped part in terms of its structure. After punching, only the tabs located on the crossbar are rotated in their transition area to the crossbar, so that they maintain their full transmission cross-section here and they are then oriented with their flat plane in the row depth of the terminal block arrangement and thus in the direction of the busbar. You can therefore have a relatively large current transmission cross-section in the basic arrangement.
- the busbars can be provided with a simple slot. With all the simplicity of construction and assembly, this configuration also means that the desired relatively large transmission cross sections can be made available for the tabs for quite considerable currents.
- Further preferred configurations relate to the resilient slitting of the flat plugs, expediently also in connection with insertion bevels and with locking knobs so that they can be easily inserted into the busbars, but can also be held relatively securely here, and the design of the electrical contact protection for such a cross connector.
- the drawing shows a cross connector according to the invention in a perspective view with illustration of adjacent or interacting terminal block parts.
- the cross connector is designed as a one-piece stamped part and has a long, metallically conductive cross bar 1 extending across a terminal block arrangement, from which a plurality of tabs 2 protrude downward in the manner of a comb.
- the tabs 2 are rotated by 90 ° to the cross bar 1 such that their flat plane is perpendicular to the longitudinal plane of the cross bar 1.
- the cross connector is intended to interact with a series of terminal blocks, the busbars of which are transverse to the direction of the row arrangement, i. H. in a row depth, parallel to the partition walls of the individual terminal blocks made of insulating material.
- the busbars 3 of the terminal blocks one of which is indicated in the drawing, have oriented plug openings 4 in their longitudinal extension, into which the flat plug 2 can then be inserted as a result of the 90 ° rotation of the flat plug 2 in relation to the transverse bar 1, since their Flat level is now in the row depth. In this way, relatively large current transmission cross sections can be realized for the flat plug 2.
- the spacing of the tabs 2 from one another is chosen such that it corresponds to the spacing of the holes 4 in the busbars 3 of a terminal block arrangement.
- the length of the tab 2 is selected so that on the one hand they can be securely inserted into the busbars and on the other hand the corresponding insulating material partition 5 (indicated in the drawing) of a terminal block can be accommodated in the upper space between two tabs 2.
- any number of terminal blocks can be connected to the cross connection corresponding to the cross connector used.
- the corresponding tabs 2 are broken off from the cross bar 1, which can be facilitated by a predetermined breaking edge 6, which runs across the tab 2, parallel to the longitudinal extent of the cross bar 1 .
- predetermined breaking edges 7 are provided which extend across the crossbar 1 as an extension of the attachment points of the flat plug 2 and which make it easier to break off cross connectors of the desired number of poles in a simple manner from a long cross connector piece.
- the tabs 2 of the cross connector are also provided, starting from their lower end, over a considerable part of their longitudinal extent with longitudinal slots 8, so that they have a spring action in their insertion areas.
- This together with the bevels 9 provided at their lower ends, makes it easier to insert them into the elongated holes 4 of the busbars 3.
- the spring action also contributes to this, in conjunction with small locking knobs 10 provided in the insertion area on the narrow edges of the flat plugs 2 Hold the flat connector 2 and thus the cross connector as a whole securely in the busbars 3 after insertion.
- the locking knobs 10 are at such a high position on the tabs 2 that they snap under the busbars 3 after being plugged in.
- the cross connector is also provided with a protection against accidental contact in the form of a protective sleeve 11 made of insulating material, in order to be able to handle it safely, which is particularly important in this case, since even under the very first contact of the flat connector 2 with the busbar 3 a terminal block may be present Electricity can flow.

Description
Die Erfindung betrifft einen Querverbinder mit einer Querleiste und unterseitig davon nach unten vorstehenden Flachsteckern für Reihenklemmen mit für die Aufnahme der Flachstecker gelochten Stromschienen.The invention relates to a cross connector with a cross bar and on the underside thereof protruding tabs for terminal blocks with perforated busbars for receiving the tabs.
Bei einer derartigen bekannten Anordnung (DE-OS-2 736 664) haben die sich in Reihungstiefe der Reihenklemme erstreckenden Stromschienen jeweils zwei in Reihungstiefe orientierte Stecköffnungen. Die Querverbinder sind U-förmige Steckelemente. Zur Erstellung der gewünschten Querverbindungen zur Verteilung des Stromes von einer auf die betroffenen weiteren Reihenklemmen innerhalb der Anreihung muß bei dieser Anordnung jeweils immer in lückenloser Aufeinanderfolge von Reihenklemme zu Reihenklemme ein entsprechendes Querverbinderelement eingesteckt werden. Es müssen viele Querverbinder-Steckelemente bevorratet werden und es ergibt sich ein sehr hoher Montageaufwand. Nachteilig ist, daß man in der Beliebigkeit der Einrichtung von Querverbindungen in einer Reihenklemmenanreihung hier sehr gebunden ist, weil bei dieser Ausgestaltung eine Fortlassung auch nur eines Querverbinder-Steckelementes in einer Aufeinanderfolge dieser Elemente nicht möglich ist.In such a known arrangement (DE-OS-2 736 664), the busbars extending in the row depth of the terminal block each have two plug openings oriented in row depth. The cross connectors are U-shaped plug-in elements. In order to create the desired cross connections for distributing the current from one to the affected further terminal blocks within the arrangement, a corresponding cross connector element must always be inserted in this arrangement in a seamless sequence from terminal block to terminal block. Many cross connector plug-in elements have to be kept in stock and the assembly effort is very high. The disadvantage is that one is very bound here in the arbitrariness of the establishment of cross connections in a series of terminal blocks, because in this embodiment it is not possible to omit even one cross connector plug element in a succession of these elements.
Bei verschiedenen anderen bekannten Querverbindern ist an einer Querleiste eine Vielzahl von Distanz- oder Verbindungselementen angeordnet, die bis zu den Stromschienen der Reihenklemmen reichen, teilweise auch über Sollbruchstellen. Der zu den Stromschienen reichende Endbereich trägt eine Anschlußschraube, die in eine Gewindebohrung der Stromschiene einzuschrauben ist (DE-OS-2 357 052, DE-OS-2 914 192). Die Herstellung derartiger Querverbinder ist relativ teuer. Verteuernd kommt das Erfordernis des Gewindeloches in der Stromschiene hinzu. Das Herstellen der Schraubanschlüsse erfordert relativ viel Zeit bei der Montage.In various other known cross connectors, a plurality of spacing or connecting elements are arranged on a cross bar, which extend as far as the busbars of the terminal blocks, sometimes also via predetermined breaking points. The end area reaching to the busbars carries a connecting screw which is to be screwed into a threaded hole in the busbar (DE-OS-2 357 052, DE-OS-2 914 192). The production of such cross connectors is relatively expensive. The need for a threaded hole in the conductor rail is also more expensive. It takes a relatively long time to assemble the screw connections.
Aus der US-A-3 249 905 ist eine Kontaktplatte mit einer Vielzahl von Kontakten bekannt, bei der das Kontaktfeld aus einer Mehrzahl von Flachkontakten besteht, wobei Reihen derartiger Flachkontakte an ihren oberen Enden mit einer gemeinsamen stromleitenden Schiene verbunden sind. Die Flachkontakte sind dabei mit ihrer Flachebene quer vom Längsverlauf der oberen Schiene verdreht, wozu sie in ihrem Übergangsbereich zur Schiene teilweise ausgeklinkt sind derart, daß sie nur mit der Hälfte ihres Gesamtquerschnittes leitend mit der Schiene verbunden sind.From US-A-3 249 905 a contact plate with a plurality of contacts is known, in which the contact field consists of a plurality of flat contacts, rows of such flat contacts being connected at their upper ends to a common current-conducting rail. The flat contacts are rotated with their flat plane transverse to the longitudinal profile of the upper rail, for which purpose they are partially notched in their transition region to the rail such that they are conductively connected to the rail with only half of their total cross section.
Die räumlichen Verhältnisse bei derartigen Kontaktplatten sind mit denjenigen von Querverbindern und Reihenklemmen nicht zu vergleichen. Reihenklemmen haben manchmal eine schmale Anschlußseite von nur 5 mm. Die in Reihungstiefe verlaufenden Stromschienen sind entsprechend schmal. Die von ihnen aufzunehmenden Anschlußelemente der Querverbinder müßten also noch schmaler sein. Dabei besteht durchaus das Erfordernis, Mindestübertragungsquerschnitte für die Übertragung relativ hoher Belastungsströme zu gewährleisten, da derartige Querverbinder ja dazu dienen, den Strom ausgehend von einer Reihenklemme auf vorbestimmte andere Reihenklemmen innerhalb der Anreihung zu verteilen und diese Reihenklemmen innerhalb der Anreihung auf das gleiche Potential zu schalten.The spatial relationships in such contact plates cannot be compared with those of cross-connectors and terminal blocks. Terminal blocks sometimes have a narrow connection side of only 5 mm. The busbars running in row depth are correspondingly narrow. The connection elements of the cross connectors to be accommodated by them should therefore be even narrower. There is certainly a need to ensure minimum transmission cross-sections for the transmission of relatively high load currents, since such cross connectors serve to distribute the current from one terminal block to predetermined other terminal blocks within the series and to switch these terminal blocks within the series to the same potential .
Der vorliegenden Erfindung liegt die Aufgabe zugrunde, einen Querverbinder der gattungsgemäßen Art zu schaffen, der es bei denkbar einfachem konstruktiven Aufbau ,ermöglicht, schnell und einfach in einer Anreihung von Reihenklemmen völlig beliebige Querverbindungen herzustellen, und zwar dieses zur Gewährleistung ausreichender . Stromübertragungsquerschnitte auch bei engsten räumlichen Verhältnissen.The present invention has for its object to provide a cross connector of the generic type, which makes it possible to quickly and easily make any desired cross connections quickly and easily in a row of terminal blocks, and this to ensure sufficient with a simple construction. Power transmission cross-sections even in the tightest of spaces.
Die erfindungsgemäße Lösung ergibt sich aus dem kennzeichnenden Teil des Anspruches 1.The solution according to the invention results from the characterizing part of
Der erfindungsgemäße Querverbinder ist seinem Aufbau nach ein sehr einfach herzustellendes Stanzteil. Nach dem Stanzen werden lediglich die an der Querleiste befindlichen Flachstecker in ihrem Übergangsbereich zur Querleiste verdreht, so daß sie hier ihren vollen Übertragungsquerschnitt beibehalten und sie dann mit ihrer Flachebene in der Reihungstiefe der Reihenklemmenanordnung und damit in der Verlaufsrichtung der Stromschiene orientiert sind. Sie können von daher der Grundanordnung nach einen relativ großen Stromübertragungsquerschnitt haben. Die Stromschienen können mit einem einfachen Langloch versehen werden. Bei aller Einfachheit des Aufbaus und der Montage ergibt sich aufgrund dieser Ausgestaltung auch, daß die gewünschten relativ großen Übertragungsquerschnitte für recht beträchtliche Stromstärken an den Flachsteckern zur Verfügung gestellt werden können. Das Anbringen eines solchen Querverbinders in jeder beliebigen Polzahl und in jeder beliebigen Reihenklemmenanschließung an eine solche Querverbindung geschieht schnell und einfach durch Einstecken des Querverbinders in einer der Länge der Querleiste entsprechend der gewünschten Polzahl in die Langlöcher der Stromschienen der betroffenen Reihenklemmen, nachdem man überall an denjenigen Stellen, an denen nicht anzuschließende Reihenklemmen in der Reihehanordnung sitzen, die hier sitzenden Flachstecker von der Querleiste abgetrennt hat. Letzteres kann in einfacher Weise mit Hilfe einer Sollbruchstelle, über die der Flachstecker an der Querleiste hängt, geschehen. Zweckmäßig sind auch in der Querleiste selbst, in Verlängerung der Ansatzzonen der Flachstecker, Sollbruchstellen vorgesehen, so daß man aus einem langen Querleistenstück jeweils die Querverbinder der benötigten Polzahl einfach abbrechen kann.The cross connector according to the invention is a very easy to manufacture stamped part in terms of its structure. After punching, only the tabs located on the crossbar are rotated in their transition area to the crossbar, so that they maintain their full transmission cross-section here and they are then oriented with their flat plane in the row depth of the terminal block arrangement and thus in the direction of the busbar. You can therefore have a relatively large current transmission cross-section in the basic arrangement. The busbars can be provided with a simple slot. With all the simplicity of construction and assembly, this configuration also means that the desired relatively large transmission cross sections can be made available for the tabs for quite considerable currents. The attachment of such a cross connector in any number of poles and in any arbitrary terminal connection to such a cross connection is done quickly and simply by inserting the cross connector in one of the length of the crossbar corresponding to the desired number of poles into the elongated holes of the busbars of the affected terminal blocks, after having worked on them everywhere Places where there are terminal blocks that are not to be connected in the row arrangement and have separated the tabs sitting here from the cross bar. The latter can be done in a simple manner with the aid of a predetermined breaking point, over which the flat connector hangs on the cross bar. Expedient breaking points are also expediently provided in the transverse strip itself, in the extension of the attachment zones of the flat plugs, so that the transverse connector of the required number of poles can be easily broken off from a long transverse strip piece.
Weitere bevorzugte Ausgestaltungen betreffen die federnde Schlitzung der Flachstecker, zweckmäßig auch in Verbindung mit Einsteckschrägen und mit Rastnoppen, so daß sie leicht in die Stromschienen eingesteckt, hier dann aber auch relativ sicher gehalten werden können, sowie die Ausgestaltung des elektrischen Berührungsschutzes für einen derartigen Querverbinder.Further preferred configurations relate to the resilient slitting of the flat plugs, expediently also in connection with insertion bevels and with locking knobs so that they can be easily inserted into the busbars, but can also be held relatively securely here, and the design of the electrical contact protection for such a cross connector.
Ein Ausführungsbeispiel eines Querverbinders gemäß der Erfindung wird nachstehend unter Bezugnahme auf die beigefügte Zeichnung näher beschrieben.An embodiment of a cross connector according to the invention is described below with reference to the accompanying drawings.
Die Zeichnung zeigt einen Querverbinder gemäß der Erfindung in perspektivischer Darstellung mit Illustrierung angrenzender oder damit zusammenwirkender Reihenklemmenteile.The drawing shows a cross connector according to the invention in a perspective view with illustration of adjacent or interacting terminal block parts.
Der Querverbinder ist als einstückiges Stanzteil ausgebildet und weist eine lange, metallisch leitende, sich quer über eine Reihenklemmenanordnung erstreckende Querleiste 1 auf, von der kammzinkenartig eine Vielzahl von Flachsteckern 2 nach unten vorstehen. Die Flachstecker 2 sind dabei um 90° zur Querleiste 1 verdreht, derart, daß ihre Flachebene senkrecht zur Längsebene der Querleiste 1 steht.The cross connector is designed as a one-piece stamped part and has a long, metallically
Der Querverbinder ist zum Zusammenwirken mit einer Anreihung von Reihenklemmen bestimmt, deren Stromschienen quer zur Reihungsrichtung der Reihenanordnung, d. h. in Reihungstiefe, parallel zu den aus Isolierstoff bestehenden Trennwänden der einzelnen Reihenklemmen liegen. Die Stromschienen 3 der Reihenklemmen, von denen eine in der Zeichnung angedeutet ist, weisen in ihrer Längserstreckung orientierte Stecköffnungen 4 auf, in die dann infolge der 90°-Verdrehung der Flachstecker 2 im Verhältnis zur Querleiste 1 die Flachstecker 2 eingesteckt werden können, da ihre Flachebene ja jetzt in der Reihungstiefe liegt. Auf diese Weise lassen sich für die Flachstecker 2 relativ große Stromübertragungsquerschnitte verwirklichen.The cross connector is intended to interact with a series of terminal blocks, the busbars of which are transverse to the direction of the row arrangement, i. H. in a row depth, parallel to the partition walls of the individual terminal blocks made of insulating material. The busbars 3 of the terminal blocks, one of which is indicated in the drawing, have oriented
Die Abstände der Flachstecker 2 voneinander sind so gewählt, wie es den Abständen der Löcher 4 in den Stromschienen 3 einer Reihenklemmenanordnung entspricht. Die Länge der Flachstecker 2 ist dabei so gewählt, daß sie einerseits sicher in die Stromschienen eingesteckt werden können und daß andererseits jeweils im oberen Freiraum zwischen zwei Flachsteckern 2 die entsprechende Isolierstofftrennwand 5 (in der Zeichnung angedeutet) einer Reihenklemme aufgenommen werden kann.The spacing of the tabs 2 from one another is chosen such that it corresponds to the spacing of the
Es können aus einer Anreihung von Reihenklemmen völlig beliebige Reihenklemmen an die dem eingesetzten Querverbinder entsprechende Querverbindung angeschlossen werden. Für diejenigen Reihenklemmen der Anordnung, die nicht an diese Querverbindung angeschlossen werden, werden die entsprechenden Flachstecker 2 von der Querleiste 1 abgebrochen, was durch eine Sollbruchkante 6, die quer über den Flachstecker 2, parallel zur Längserstreckung der Querleiste 1, verläuft, erleichtert werden kann.From a series of terminal blocks, any number of terminal blocks can be connected to the cross connection corresponding to the cross connector used. For those terminal blocks of the arrangement that are not connected to this cross connection, the corresponding tabs 2 are broken off from the
Ferner sind Sollbruchkanten 7 vorgesehen, die sich in Verlängerung der Ansatzpunkte der Flachstecker 2 quer über die Querleiste 1 erstrecken und die es erleichtern, aus einem langen Querverbinderstück in einfacher Weise Querverbinder der jeweils gewünschten Polzahl abzubrechen.In addition, predetermined breaking edges 7 are provided which extend across the
Die Flachstecker 2 des Querverbinders sind ferner, ausgehend von ihrem unteren Ende, über einen erheblichen Teil ihrer Längserstreckung mit Längsschlitzen 8 versehen, so daß sie in ihren Einsteckbereichen eine Federwirkung haben. Dies erleichtert zunächst zusammen mit an ihren unteren Enden vorgesehenen Einsteckschrägen 9 das Einstecken in die Langlöcher 4 der Stromschienen 3. Die Federwirkung trägt andererseits aber auch, und zwar in Verbindung mit kleinen im Einsteckbereich auf den Schmalkanten der Flachstecker 2 vorgesehenen Rastnoppen 10 dazu bei, die Flachstecker 2 und damit den Querverbinder insgesamt nach der Einsteckung in die Stromschienen 3 sicher in diesen zu halten. Die Rastnoppen 10 befinden sich in einer solchen Höhenlage an den Flachsteckern 2,.daß sie nach dem Einstecken leicht schnappend unter die Stromschienen 3 greifen.The tabs 2 of the cross connector are also provided, starting from their lower end, over a considerable part of their longitudinal extent with
Der Querverbinder ist ferner mit einem Berührungsschutz in Form einer Schutzhülle 11 aus Isolierstoffmaterial versehen, um ihn gefahrlos handhaben zu können, was in diesem Fall besonders wichtig ist, da ja schon bei der allerersten Kontaktierung des Flachsteckers 2 mit der Stromschiene 3 einer Reihenklemme unter Umständen ein Strom fließen kann.The cross connector is also provided with a protection against accidental contact in the form of a
