Abstract

Eine solche Klemme hat eine Kastenfeder (5), aus deren Wandung zumindest ein federnder Klemmschenkel (8) freigeschnitten ist, der in das Kasteninnere hinein zu einem gegenüberliegenden Widerlager (7) hin eingebogen ist und der ein freies Klemmende (31) hat, zwischen dem und dem Widerlager (7) ein elektrischer Leiter (2) einspannbar ist. In der Kastenfeder ist ein zum Klemmende (31) des Klemmschenkels hin verschiebliches Betätigungsteil (4) angeordnet, das ein vorstehendes Drückerende (35) aufweist. Beim Eindrücken schiebt sich das Betätigungsteil (4) mit seinem Innenende (36) als Keil zwischen das Widerlager (7) und den Klemmschenkel (8), wodurch ein eingespannter Leiter (2) freigegeben wird. Um die Anzahl der Teile dieser Klemme und deren Baugröße zu verringern, hat das Betätigungsteil (4) einen Durchlaßkanal (11) für die Durchführung des Leiters (2), der sich von der Leitereinführöffnung (10) am Drückerende (35) bis zu einer Leiteraustrittsöffnung (37) am Innenende (36) des Betätigungsteils (4) erstreckt.

Figure 00000001
Such a clamp has a box spring (5), from the wall of which at least one resilient clamping leg (8) is cut free, which is bent into the inside of the box towards an opposite abutment (7) and which has a free clamping end (31) between which and the abutment (7) can be clamped with an electrical conductor (2). Arranged in the box spring is an actuating part (4) which can be displaced towards the clamping end (31) of the clamping leg and which has a protruding push end (35). When pressed in, the actuating part (4) pushes with its inner end (36) as a wedge between the abutment (7) and the clamping leg (8), thereby releasing a clamped conductor (2). In order to reduce the number of parts of this terminal and their size, the actuating part (4) has a passage channel (11) for the passage of the conductor (2), which extends from the conductor insertion opening (10) at the handle end (35) to a conductor outlet opening (37) extends at the inner end (36) of the actuating part (4).
