Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a housing for electrical connectors.
  • Boxes are known for connection bars formed of a box-shaped body which has a first base body, where in its cavity are housed one or more connectors or screw terminals, and a second body intended for closing the aforementioned cavity.
  • These housings of the known killer for their conformation, comprise a certain difficulty in the execution of the connections and most often result from excessive dimensions compared to the spaces available in correspondence of the apparatuses for which they are intended, in particular in the case of bipolar connections.
  • the main purpose of the present invention is to eliminate the aforementioned drawbacks. This result has been achieved by adopting the idea of making a protective housing for electrical connectors having the characteristics described in claim 1. Other characteristics are the subject of the dependent claims.
  • a case of protection for electrical connectors comprises: a body with a basic element (1) which has seats for means for joining the terminal ends of the cables (2, 2 ') to be connected; and an element of closure (3), acting and cooperating with each other so that the connectors are inside the cavity delimited by the walls of said elements base and closure (1,3).
  • the aforementioned means of connection are shown, by way of example only, as metal loops (4), provided with screws (40) for the tightening of cables (2,2 ') intended for connection.
  • the basic element (1) is shaped like a platform (10) on one side of which is provided a transverse walls (11), with an opening (110) for the passage of the corresponding cables (2).
  • the closing element (3) is in the form of a box with one side (30) open to allow insertion of the aforementioned platform (10) in the cavity respective (300); the opening (30) of the element (3) is basically in shape and dimensions corresponding to those of the transverse wall terminal (11) of the platform (10).
  • Side opposite, the element (3) has an inlet (31) for the other cables (2 '). Once connected cables (2,2 ') by means of the mouths (4), these can be placed in the respective seats on the platform (10) of the base element (1). At this point, the platform (10) is fully inserted into the cavity of the element (3), up to the point of coincidence of the walls (11) with the mouth (30) of the last.
  • the basic element (1) has, in correspondence of the aforementioned platform (10), a structure (15) with two seats (41) for connectors (4), concave in shape and with the respective concavities facing the edges longitudinal of the platform (10), so that in the position of use - i.e. with the platform (10) introduced into element (3) - the heads of the screws (40) of the connectors (4) result facing the corresponding walls of the elements (3).
  • element (3) be the element basic (1) can be made in a body unique with relative accessories with a matrix for plastic material (e.g. nylon 66). Said configuration of the elements (1) and (3) reduces the height of the housing, since the connector screws (4) result oriented parallel to the base development plan (1) which houses the same (transversely to cables).
  • the platform (10) can be provided with barbs (100) intended to employ respective seats (34) provided on a wall corresponding (32) of the body (3) to prevent it spontaneous detachment after the platform (10) has been completely introduced into the body (3).
  • the latter can be provided, as illustrated in Figures 1, 2 and 17, two appendages (33) longitudinally prominent outwards and re-connectable with each other by means of screws (330) passing through rings corresponding (331) so as to obtain the tightening of a cable capacity socket (5) respective (2 ').
  • the closure body (3) can present a seat (36) defined by a groove transverse passable able to receive stable an end portion (53) of the sleeve (5).
  • a seat (36) defined by a groove transverse passable able to receive stable an end portion (53) of the sleeve (5).
  • the clamping elements (12) result so flexible linked to the structure (15) and can pass of a first repositioning position in which are further from the platform (10) and join a height fundamentally greater than the height of the base element (1) at a second blocking position, in which they are kept closer to the platform (10) thanks to the interaction of the closing element (3) which, with a closed case, pushes them precisely towards the platform.
  • this type of cable blocking exceeds the proof of traction provided by rules in force.
  • FIG. 7 and 8 illustrate in detail an example of realization of the platform (10) of the basic element (1); in this realization the platform (10) present, in correspondence of the connection zone to the structure (15), a profile defining a primer (14) capable of guide the end of the cable in the introduction to inside the loop (4), where the metal portion (16) which allows connection electric.
  • This particular conformation allows to maintain the end of the conductor, formed of a braided yarn, correctly shaped, i.e. without the folds which can distinguish the connections of known type (without primer). This too because the leader brings in the conductor of so as not to interfere with the loop (4) or with the plate (16).
  • the loops (4) can also be of the multiplace type, i.e. allow the simultaneous connection of several cables arranged on two opposite sides.
  • the structure (15) can also take the form of a kind of "H" multiple, so as to allow positioning several parallel loops on each side.
  • the seats for the connection loops can be arranged in shelves on the platform (10).
  • the connectors are positionable in such a way that the screws conductor tightening results parallel to the plane of the platform and with the heads oriented towards the edge portion correspondent of the same platform: either the closure element that the base element with the platform by being able to present several openings for the passage of cables intended for connectors.
  • the cover be the platform may have a central hole for fixing to a support rod, which belongs, for example, to an illumination device.
  • the structure (15) present on the platform (10) of the base (1) can be shaped so as to accommodate a third connector, placed in a corresponding seat (42) central and oriented orthogonal to the two sides.
  • the container body (3) of the base (1) may also have one or more annular appendages (35) to allow it to be fixed to the apparatus supplied by cables intended for connection or other support.
  • an appendage (35) arranged laterally; in Figs. 9 and 10 the appendage (35) extends below the closure body (3); in Figs. 12,13, and 14 there are two annular appendages (35) arranged in correspondence with one end of the head of the base body.
