Description

Die Erfindung betrifft eine Kontaktelementgruppe einer elektrotechnischen Mehrfachsteckverbindung für elektrische Geräte, insbesondere Haushaltsgeräte, mit einem am Gerät anbringbaren Basisbereich und mindestens zwei daran angeordneten, gleichartigen Kontaktelementen in Form von Klemm- bzw. Steckelementen zum Anschließen von internen Geräteleitungen.The invention relates to a contact element group of an electrotechnical multiple plug connection for electrical devices, in particular household appliances, with a base region that can be attached to the device and at least two identical contact elements arranged thereon in the form of clamping or plug elements for connecting internal device lines.

Eine derartige Kontaktelementgruppe ist u.a. ein sogenannter Doppelflachstecker. Das sind zwei Flachstecker, die an ihren rückseitigen Stirnseiten miteinander verbunden sind, wobei der Verbindungsbereich den Basisbereich darstellt. Im Basisbereich befindet sich in der Regel eine zentrale Bohrung, über die die meist nicht isolierte Kontaktelementgruppe mit einer Schraube oder einem Niet beispielsweise an einer Gerätegehäuserückwand oder einem internen Gehäusevorsprung befestigt wird. Teilweise sind die Kontaktelementgruppen gebogen ausgeführt, so daß jedes Kontaktelement bzw. jede Steckfahne des einzelnen Flachsteckers unter einem Winkel von 15-90° vom Basisbereich absteht. Die Kontaktelementgruppen, die ggf. auch mehrfach übereinander montiert werden, bilden eine Art Sammelschiene oder Mehrfachverteiler, beispielsweise für mehrere Schutzleiter einzelner elektrischer Gerätebaugruppen. Solche Verteiler benötigen viel Platz, da die einzelnen Anschlüsse sternförmig vom Basisbereich abstehen. Aus diesem Grund ist es selten möglich, die Gegenkontaktelemente der anzuschließenden Leiter maschinell zu montieren.Such a contact element group is, inter alia, a so-called double flat plug. These are two flat plugs that are connected to each other on their rear faces, the connection area being the base area. There is usually a central hole in the base area, through which the mostly non-insulated contact element group is fastened with a screw or rivet, for example to a device housing rear wall or an internal housing projection. In some cases, the contact element groups are curved so that each contact element or each lug of the individual tab connector protrudes from the base region at an angle of 15-90 °. The contact element groups, which may also be installed several times one above the other, form a type of busbar or multiple distributor, for example for several protective conductors individually electrical device assemblies. Such distributors require a lot of space because the individual connections protrude from the base area in a star shape. For this reason, it is rarely possible to mechanically mount the mating contact elements of the conductors to be connected.

Ferner ist auch ein Isoliergehäuse zum Umgeben eines so sperrigen Mehrfachverteilers kompliziert und materialaufwendig.Furthermore, an insulating housing for surrounding such a bulky multiple distributor is complicated and material-intensive.

Der Erfindung liegt daher das Problem zugrunde, eine Kontaktelementgruppe einer elektrotechnischen Mehrfachsteckverbindung zu schaffen, die auf kleinem Raum mehrere verschiedenartige lösbare und nichtlösbare Anschlußmöglichkeiten bietet. Ferner soll sie problemlos in ein Isoliergehäuse eingebaut bzw. eingesetzt werden können. Auch sind die aus dem Bereich des Standes der Technik bekannten Nachteile zu vermeiden.The invention is therefore based on the problem of creating a contact element group of an electrotechnical multiple connector which offers several different types of releasable and non-releasable connection options in a small space. Furthermore, it should be able to be installed or used in an insulating housing without any problems. The disadvantages known from the prior art are also to be avoided.

Das Problem wird mit Hilfe einer Kontaktelementgruppe mit den Merkmalen des Hauptanspruchs gelöst. Durch die am Basisbereich angeordnete Crimphülse kann die Kontaktelementgruppe platzsparend und unlösbar mit einem Leiter verbunden werden. Dieser Leiter kann Teil eines Geräteanschluß bzw. eines Netzkabels sein, das in das Gehäuse des entsprechenden Gerätes hineingeführt wird, um dort einzelne elektrische Gerätebaugruppen mit jeweils einem Leiter, z.B. entweder einem Schutzleiter, oder einem Neutralleiter oder einem anderen stromführenden Leiter anschließen zu können.The problem is solved with the help of a contact element group with the features of the main claim. Due to the crimp sleeve arranged on the base area, the contact element group can be connected to a conductor in a space-saving and permanent manner. This conductor can be part of a device connection or a mains cable which is led into the housing of the corresponding device in order to there individual electrical device assemblies, each with a conductor, e.g. to connect either a protective conductor, or a neutral conductor or another live conductor.

Gemäß einer weiteren Ausgestaltung ist im Basisbereich ein Gewinde für eine Schraubklemmverbindung vorgesehen, so daß mindestens ein Leiter direkt, also ohne Gegenkontaktelement, an der Kontaktelementgruppe festgeklemmt werden kann. Die Schraubklemmverbindung erweist sich u.a. beim Austausch eines beschädigten Gerätenetzkabels als vorteilhaft. Die blanken Leiter des neuen Netzkabels können direkt an den Schraubklemmverbindungen angeklemmt werden, also ohne Austausch der Kontaktelementgruppen.According to a further embodiment, a thread is provided for a screw-type clamp connection in the base region, so that at least one conductor is directly on the contact element group, that is to say without a mating contact element can be clamped. The screw-type terminal connection proves to be advantageous, inter alia, when replacing a damaged device power cable. The bare conductors of the new power cable can be clamped directly to the screw-type terminal connections, i.e. without exchanging the contact element groups.

Der Basisbereich besteht aus einem Boden mit zwei daran beidseitig angeordneten, parallelen Seitenstegen. Vom Boden und zumindest von einem Seitensteg aus zweigt jeweils mindestens ein Kontaktelement ab. Die Kontaktelemente haben die gleiche Bauform, beispielsweise genormte Flachstecker oder Steckhülsen, und weisen in die gleiche Richtung.The base area consists of a floor with two parallel side bars arranged on both sides. At least one contact element branches off from the floor and at least from one side web. The contact elements have the same design, for example standardized flat plugs or receptacles, and point in the same direction.

Die Crimphülse ist beispielsweise am Boden oder einem Seitensteg angeordnet. Sie liegt dabei auf der einen Seite des Basisbereichs, während die gleichartigen Kontaktelemente auf der anderen Seite liegen. Vorzugsweise ist die Crimphülse in der Verlängerung eines Flachsteckers oder einer Steckhülse angeordnet. Auf diese Weise sind die lösbaren und die nicht lösbaren Kontaktelemente raumsparend hintereinander angeordnet, so daß beispielsweise ein Gerätenetzkabel mit den angecrimpten Kontaktelementgruppen durch eine kleine Gerätegehäusebohrung durchgeführt werden kann.The crimp sleeve is arranged, for example, on the floor or on a side web. It lies on one side of the base area, while the similar contact elements are on the other side. The crimp sleeve is preferably arranged in the extension of a flat plug or a plug sleeve. In this way, the releasable and the non-releasable contact elements are arranged in a space-saving manner one behind the other, so that, for example, a device power cable with the crimped contact element groups can be carried out through a small device housing bore.

Die Crimphülse kann auch um eine Isolierumfassung verlängert sein. Außerdem können am Basisbereich auch mehrere Crimphülsen angeordnet sein.The crimp sleeve can also be extended by an insulating enclosure. In addition, a plurality of crimp sleeves can also be arranged on the base region.

Die hier dargestellte Kontaktelementgruppe (1) ist ein mehrfach umgeformtes Blechteil, das - der Komplettversion entsprechend - fünf Elemente oder Teilelemente für teilweise verschiedenartige Anschlußmöglichkeiten bietet.The contact element group (1) shown here is a multi-formed sheet metal part, which - according to the complete version - offers five elements or partial elements for different connection options.

Die fünf Elemente oder Teilelemente sind drei Flachstecker bzw. deren Steckfahnen (20-22) für lösbare Flachsteckverbindungen, ein - als Option vorgesehenes - Gewinde (6) für eine Schraubklemmverbindung zum lösbaren Anschluß eines elektrischen Leiters und eine Crimphülse (11) zum nicht lösbaren Anschluß eines weiteren elektrischen Leiters. Alle Elemente oder Teilelemente (6, 11, 20-22) sind an einem Basisbereich (2) der Kontaktelementgruppe (1) angeordnet.The five elements or sub-elements are three tabs or their tabs (20-22) for detachable tabs, a - provided as an option - thread (6) for a screw clamp connection for the detachable connection of an electrical conductor and a crimp sleeve (11) for the non-detachable connection another electrical conductor. All elements or sub-elements (6, 11, 20-22) are arranged on a base region (2) of the contact element group (1).

Der Basisbereich (2) besteht aus einem Boden (4) mit zwei sich gegenüberliegenden, am Boden (4) anschließenden Seitenstegen (15, 16). Zentral im Boden (4) befindet sich eine Bohrung, die hier in einen rohrförmigen Ansatz (5) mündet. Der Ansatz (5), der unten aus dem Boden (4) um die ca. dreifache Bodenstärke herausragt, trägt an seiner Innenseite das Gewinde (6). In das Gewinde (6) kann eine Klemmschraube - nicht dargestellt - eingeschraubt werden, die mit oder ohne ein Druckübertragungsteil einen Draht, eine Litze, einen Kabelschuh, eine Ringöse oder dergleichen gegen den Boden (4) klemmt. Gegebenenfalls weist der Boden (4) im Klemmbereich Sicken (7) oder Rillen auf, um eine hohe Abzieh- und/oder Klemmsicherheit zu gewähren.The base area (2) consists of a base (4) with two opposite side webs (15, 16) adjoining the base (4). There is a central hole in the bottom (4), which opens into a tubular extension (5). The approach (5), which protrudes from the bottom (4) by about three times the base thickness, carries the thread (6) on the inside. A clamping screw - not shown - can be screwed into the thread (6), which clamps a wire, a strand, a cable lug, a ring eyelet or the like against the floor (4) with or without a pressure transmission part. If necessary, the base (4) has beads (7) or grooves in the clamping area in order to ensure a high level of pull-off and / or clamping security.

Am Boden (4) ist über einen Steg (10) eine Crimphülse (11) angeordnet. Die Crimphülse (11) ist hier von der Bodenebene aus nach oben geformt, so daß ihr Schlitz (12) oberhalb der Bodenebene liegt. Der Steg (10) hat ca. die halbe Länge der Crimphülse (11). Selbstverständlich kann die Crimphülse (11) u.a. auch nach unten oder zur Seite hin geformt sein.A crimp sleeve (11) is arranged on the bottom (4) via a web (10). The crimp sleeve (11) is shaped upwards from the floor level so that its slot (12) lies above the floor level. The web (10) has approximately half the length of the crimp sleeve (11). Of course, the crimp sleeve (11) can be used, among other things. also be shaped downwards or to the side.

Gegenüber der Crimphülse (11) ist am Boden eine Steckfahne (21) eines genormten Flachsteckers angeordnet. Die Steckfahne (21) liegt in der Ebene des Bodens (4).Opposite the crimp sleeve (11), a plug-in lug (21) of a standardized flat plug is arranged on the bottom. The flag (21) lies in the plane of the bottom (4).

An den Seitenstegen (15, 16) des Basisbereichs (2) sind ebenfalls Steckfahnen (20, 22) angeordnet. Sie sind symmetrisch zueinander s-förmig nach innen gekröpft, so daß sich die Außenflächen der Steckfahnen (20, 22) annähernd oberhalb der Seitenkanten der darunter liegenden Steckfahne (21) erstrecken. Alle Steckfahnen (20-21) haben jeweils ein Rastloch (23), wobei die Steckfahnen (20-21) hier beispielsweise so angeordnet sind, daß alle Rastlöcher (23) in einer Querebene der Kontaktelementgruppe (1) liegen.Pins (20, 22) are also arranged on the side webs (15, 16) of the base region (2). They are bent symmetrically to each other in an S-shape, so that the outer surfaces of the plug-in lugs (20, 22) extend approximately above the side edges of the plug-in lugs (21) below. All plug-in lugs (20-21) each have a locking hole (23), the plug-in lugs (20-21) being arranged here, for example, in such a way that all locking holes (23) lie in a transverse plane of the contact element group (1).

Jeder Seitensteg (15, 16) hat jeweils eine rechteckige Ausnehmung (17). Die deckungsgleichen Ausnehmungen (17) sind zur Crimphülse (11) hin geringfügig versetzt.Each side web (15, 16) has a rectangular recess (17). The congruent recesses (17) are slightly offset towards the crimp sleeve (11).

Die Außenkontur der Kontaktelementgruppe (1) ist so gewählt, daß sie (1) in eine weitgehend quaderförmige Klemmenkammer mit zumindest annähernd quadratischem Querschnitt eingebaut werden kann. In einer solchen Klemmenkammer wird die Kontaktelementgruppe (1) durch Rastkerben gehalten, die in die Ausnehmungen (17) der Seitenstege (15, 16) beim Einbauen einrasten.The outer contour of the contact element group (1) is selected so that it (1) can be installed in a largely cuboidal terminal chamber with an at least approximately square cross section.
