Abstract
Description
-
- The invention relates to a branch terminal for connecting at least one electrical branch conductor to a continuous electrical main conductor, which branch terminal comprises an electrically conducting contact block which can be fixed in position by clamping means on the main conductor, with which block an electrically conducting coupling screw rotatable from outside co-operates by means of a threaded hole, which screw can be placed in contact with the main conductor by rotation, whereby the clamping means support the main conductor on their side facing away from the coupling screw, and the contact block displays for each branch conductor a hole for receiving thereof and a screw rotatable from outside for fixing in place of that branch conductor in that hole.
- Such a branch terminal is known from applicant's earlier European patent application 0 142 901.
- The invention has for its object to give a branch terminal of the type described a form such that it can be manufactured cheaply, can be used very easily, is reliable in the long term, can be manufactured of insulating material and is capable of ensuring a substantially constant contact force between the coupling screw and the main conductor.
- In order to achieve these aims the invention proposes a branch terminal of the type referred to in the preamble which displays the feature that the clamping means consist of two separate, more or less U-shaped clamping parts which can be placed over the main conductor from two sides and are coupled to each other while enclosing the contact block.
- The clamping parts can consist of a mechanically strong plastic, such as polyamide.
- The plastic is preferably reinforced, for instance with glass fibres.
- Various types of coupling may be considered suitable. Use can be made of a strong and quick drying adhesive or an ultrasonic weld treatment. The drawback here is that additional materials and equipment are needed at the workplace, which is often out in the open, and in varying weather conditions. Preference is therefore given to an embodiment in which the clamping parts can be connected to each other by a snap coupling. In this latter case a variant can be advantageously employed which displays the feature that the snap coupling comprises a number of snap edges following on from one another in the coupling direction of the clamping parts, such that the interval over which the clamping parts are coupled to each other can be selected. In this case the coupling interval can be chosen on the basis of the relevant cable diameter, which enables universal application of the branch terminal.
- In order to enable, particularly in the case of the use of an insulated main conductor, reliable supporting of the main conductor against the pressure force of the coupling screw the variant is preferably used in which the clamping part supporting the main conductor displays a number of sharp projections, such as pyramids, cones, cross ribs or longitudinal ribs, the tops of which are positioned such that they can all be placed in contact with the main conductor by tightening of the coupling screw. In another embodiment the branch terminal displays the feature that the coupling screw has a head which can be set in co-operation with the main conductor, this head having a cutter face and a stop collar. This embodiment has the advantage that a well controllable contact can be ensured between the coupling screw and the main conductor, without there being any danger of excessive damage to the main conductor or of its elastic limit being exceeded.
- A preferred embodiment of the branch terminal according to the invention displays the feature that the contact block is enclosed in one of the clamping parts, the coupling screw is rotatable via a through-hole present in that clamping part and that the wall part containing that hole is resilient such that after tightening of the coupling screw that wall part exerts an elastic force on the contact block, thus ensuring a permanent contact with a substantially constant contact force between the coupling screw and the main conductor.
- The invention further relates to a method for manufacturing a coupling screw with a cutter face. This method according to the invention displays the feature that a screw is provided and a hole is drilled through the active leading end face thereof, at least a part of the edge of which hole can serve as cutting edge. The method is preferably applied such that the drill is directed such that its central axis makes an angle with the central axis of the screw. In a particular embodiment the method may have the feature that the drill is directed such that its central axis lies in the same plane as the central axis of the screw. In a variant the method has the particular feature that a through-hole is drilled which extends between the leading end face of the screw and its outer envelope surface. When an angle is allowed between the central axis of the screw and that of the drill, and thereby the bore hole made with it, a hole is obtained with a non-round edge, for example, in the case of a flat leading end face of the screw, a hole the edge of which takes the form of an ellipse, the long side of which extends more or less radially, depending on the fact of whether both central axes lie in the same plane.
- Finally, the invention also relates to a coupling screw obtained with the above described methods.
- The invention will now be elucidated with reference to the drawing of two random embodiments. In the drawing:
- Fig. 1 shows a perspective view of a first embodiment, whereby the various parts are shown for the sake of clarity at some distance from one another;
- fig. 2 shows the branch terminal as in fig. 1 in position of use during fitting;
- fig. 3 is the section along the line III-III in fig. 2;
- fig. 4 shows a cross section corresponding to fig. 3 of a second embodiment in its final operative position;
- fig. 5 is a partly broken away side view of a coupling screw in which a cutting side is arranged using a drill; and
- fig. 6 is a view of the leading end face of the coupling screw shown in fig. 5.
- Fig. 1 shows a
branch terminal 1 in a first embodiment of the invention. It comprises two more or less U-shapedclamping parts branch terminal 1 is completely insulated to the outside and can therefore if required be arranged on a main conductor carrying current. - Clamping
parts upper clamping part 2 each comprise once again a more or less U-shaped structure with twolegs 5, 6 of which the surfaces facing each other are provided with snap edges 7 running in transverse direction relative to the coupling direction 4 and following on from one another in the coupling direction 4 ofclamping parts legs 8 of thelower clamping part 3. The form of the respective snap edges is chosen such that thelegs 8 oflower clamping part 3 can be inserted with some force into the space enclosed by thelegs 5, 6 of theupper clamping part 2. The reverse movement is not possible because of the barb-like form of the snap edges. - The
upper clamping part 2 has a form such that it can enclose abrass contact block 10. This is shown more clearly in the figures to be discussed later. -
Upper clamping part 2 displays a through-hole 11 for passage of a coupling screw for coupling of thecontact block 10 to a main conductor, and two through-holes -
Lower clamping part 3 has on its inner face, the portion intended for support of the main conductor, five sharply tapering longitudinal ribs 14, the tops of which are placed such that after arranging of the branch terminal and tightening of the coupling screw to be described hereinafter they are placed in contact with the main conductor. - Fig. 2 shows the
branch terminal 1 in the situation where the twoclamping parts main conductor 15 with insulatingsheath 16, are connected to each other by means of the snap edges 7, 9.Contact block 10 is provided with a threadedhole 17 which can be positioned coaxially with the through-hole 11 in theupper clamping part 2. A screw to be fitted in threadedhole 17 can thus be tightened from outside. Threadedhole 17 is a through-hole, as is shown in fig. 3, so thatcoupling screw 18 can be tightened from outside. As a result of this tightening the insulatingsheath 16 is pierced by the relevant head ofscrew 18 so thatscrew 18 comes into contact withmain conductor 15, so that a conducting contact results between thismain conductor 15 andcontact block 10. Two through-holes 19, 20 extend in the direction ofmain conductor 15 and serve to receive therespective branch conductors screws holes holes brass contact block 10 intended for thescrews - It will be apparent that in this way a firm fixing of
main cable main conductor 15 on the one hand and thebranch conductors coupling screw 18 andcontact block 10. - It is noted that in the embodiment under consideration a sector-shaped main conductor is applied which may for instance form part of a multi-core cable.
- As already remarked, the figures 2 and 3 show the situation where a conducting contact does in fact already exist between
main conductor 15 andcontact block 10. Fig. 4 shows however the manner in which a substantially constant contact force is ensured. In fig. 4 the corresponding elements are designated with the same reference numerals as in the previous figures. A difference will be found in thecoupling screw 27 which deviates from thecoupling screw 18 according to the first embodiment discussed above in so far thatscrew 27 displays acutter head 28 of relatively small diameter, while a stop collar 29 connects thereto. In this way a hole can be cut intomain conductor 15, after which stop collar 29 then serves as a permanent pressure surface and can in addition form an indication of when to stop tightening ofcoupling screw 27. Whencoupling screw 27 is further tightened no further cutting bycutter head 28 into the material ofmain conductor 15 will take place, but the screw will react to an increasing extent againstcontact block 10 which as a result will show a tendency to start moving upward. As a result of this upward directed movement a related pressure force is exerted on theupper wall pat 30 of theupper clamping part 2 that is convex in the direction ofcontact block 10. As is shown clearly when fig. 4 and fig. 3 are compared, thisupper wall part 30 springs a little upward to the position shown in fig. 4. Achieved in this way as a consequence of the stiff character ofupper clamping part 2, caused on the one hand by its shape and on the other by the stated choice of material, is that an elastic bias occurs which expresses itself in a tensile force in thelegs branch terminal 1. With continued tightening ofcoupling screw 27 theupper wall part 30 is pressed completely flat against the upper surface ofcontact block 10, following which, ifcontact screw 18 is further tightened, a great tensile force can result in thelegs coupling screw 27 andmain conductor 15 is ensured as a result of this construction, even after a very long period of time and also after casting of the entire coupling in an insulating mass. - As fig. 4 shows, the free upper face of
coupling screw 27 is situated in the final position a little way beneath the outer surface ofupper wall part 30. If desired the through-hole 11 may in that case be closed by means of a stopper (not drawn). - The branch terminal can also be fitted voltage-free by first coupling the
branch conductors contact block 10 by tightening of thescrews coupling screw main conductor 15. - Fig. 5 shows a
coupling screw 31 of which the leading end face, i.e. the active surface to be placed in contact withmain conductor 15, displays a cutting ege. This cutting edge is a part of a through-hole 33 arranged by means of a symbolically designateddrill 32. The central axis ofhole 33 and the central axis ofscrew 31 lie in the same plane and form an angle with each other. The through-hole 33 extends between theleading end face 34 ofscrew 31 and the outer envelope surface thereof. - Fig. 6 shows the leading end face with the
hole 33. Anarrow 35 shows the rotation direction ofscrew 31 during the fixing in position againstmain conductor 15. During this rotation the rearmost portion (designated with 36) of the edge of thehole 33 acts as cutting edge. - A very reliable contact between
main conductor 15 andscrew 31 is hereby ensured, while thisscrew 31 nevertheless displays a very simple construction.
