Definitions

  • the invention relates to a connector for electrical conductors, with a one or Multi-pole housing made of insulating material, one cutting contact element to be arranged in each pole and one pole for each pole, which can be inserted into the housing insulation-penetrating contacting of a conductor with the cutting contact element, wherein in the housing and the pressure pieces recesses for receiving the Conductors are provided, the recesses of the housing to the rear and are open at the top and in the pressure piece one that runs from top to bottom Through opening is provided and the pressure piece in its front end region has a latching hook for which according to the final assembly position of the Pressure piece in the housing a locking recess is provided.
  • Such connectors are for use with so-called bus conductors, the one run through electrical system continuously and on which often at different Positions of electrical potential branches take place, not suitable because at these connectors the electrical conductor must be cut.
  • the US 4 449 767 shows a connector for electrical conductors, in the housing side two separate housing pieces are provided, one of which is the Cutting contact element for the insulation-penetrating contacting of a conductor has, rearward to the rear and top and bottom open openings has, into which continuous conductors can be pressed.
  • As thrust pieces separate locking pieces are provided, which have no passage openings for the leaders. They are placed on the back of the inserted ladder and both with the cutting contact elements themselves and with housing sections of the housing piece in question latched.
  • the present invention is therefore based on the object To create connectors that provide insulation penetrating contact made possible by bus ladders in a simple manner.
  • the solution according to the invention results from claim 1.
  • the recesses in Housing of the connector and also in the pressure pieces each on one If there are open through openings the pressure pieces can be attached to any Place on the side of a continuous, no longer cut electrical conductors are placed and they can then, with multipole Housings in a number corresponding to the number of poles next to each other, with the continuous conductors from the open side into the housing below Realization of the insulation-penetrating contacting of the conductor in the Cutting contacts are pressed in.
  • the assembly of such connectors on continuous conductors, especially bus conductors, is therefore exceptional simplified.
  • the connector can be designed with one or more poles, for example from 2 to 24-pin.
  • the connector has in this Embodiment a one-piece housing 1 made of insulating material, in which per pole a cutting contact element 2 in respective receiving spaces is arranged.
  • this Cutting contact element 2 at one end of one Double flat spring formed tulip-shaped socket contact 3, while on other end by U-shaped stamped and bent parts two each a clamping slot having cutting contacts 4 for insulation penetrating contact electrical conductors are provided.
  • the socket contact 3 and the cutting contacts 4 each taken as two simple stamped and bent parts manufactured, which are then welded together.
  • a rib 5 is provided with which the lower U-shaped area of the Cutting contacts 4 by pressing against the housing contours in the housing 1 can be fixed.
  • the cutting contact element described above 2 contacts an electrical conductor 6 twice after insulation penetration.
  • a Cutting contact element 2a is only one next to the socket contact 3 Cutting contact 4 provided while in the area of the other U-leg through a correspondingly large franking an insulation penetrating Contacting is prevented. This embodiment comes in low Current loads and has the advantage for this application, that the force required to press a conductor into the Cutting contact element is required halved.
  • pressure pieces 7 provided in a number corresponding to the number of poles of the connector are used.
  • These pressure pieces 7 have a through opening 8, which has a lateral opening 9 to one side, the opening width is expediently a little smaller than the insulation diameter of the to be introduced electrical conductor 6 so that it can be clipped. It is therefore the insulation diameter of those to be connected Head different geometrical variants available, which can be graded Through hole diameters noticeable.
  • the edges of the side Opening 9 of the through opening 8 expediently have insertion phases 10 which in their entirety then result in a V-shaped configuration.
  • the pressure piece 7 also has a locking hook 11 on its front upper edge, for the in the end position of the assembly of the connector in the corresponding top of the housing 1 of the connector one Locking recess 12 is provided. In the pressure piece 7 are also located two recesses 13, in which the insulation penetrating cutting contacts 4 can occur.
  • the Pressure piece 7 also has one shown in its rear Embodiment groove-shaped recess 15 for an operating tool, for example, a screwdriver, so that it is secure in it Stops when the pressure piece 7 with the inserted electrical conductor 6 is pressed into the housing 1.
  • the housing 1 has through openings 16 which are open towards the rear Inclusion of the pressure pieces 7 together with inserted electrical Head 6 on, being in the upper and lower boundary wall Frankings 17 and 18, which are also to the rear of the Open housing 1 out so that the continuous electrical conductor 6 Can cross housing 1 from top to bottom and also the upper and / or lower access openings 14 for the test probe freely accessible stay.
  • the final press-in process little by little or simultaneously all pressure pieces leads to the complete impression of the Pressure pieces 7 with the electrical conductors 6 in the housing 1 below insulation-isolating pressing of the conductor 6 into the cutting contacts 4 with appropriate contacting of the strands of the conductor 6.
  • the end position is by entering the locking hooks 11 of the pressure pieces 7 in the locking recesses 12 of the housing 1 secured. The locking hook 11 thus close at the same time so far the recesses 12 that they also a kind of lid function exercise.
  • the Locking hook 11 of the corresponding pressure piece 7 can be released.
  • the affected assembly now consisting of the cutting contact element 2, 2a in its entirety, the pressure piece 7 and the electrical conductor 6 Pull out the back of the housing 1 and with another one beforehand replace the detached module or replace it with a new one replace.
  • the front region of the cutting contact element 2 of the Connector does not have to be a socket contact. It can also be here Pin contact or a hermaphrodite contact or any other Connector contact technology are used.
