Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a connecting clamp, with an electrically insulating body with a Body width and a first pair of interacting the base body of molded-on conductor receiving parts with outer sides, with a conductor with between the conductor receiving parts a conductor cross-section up to a maximum cross-section is clampable, the outer sides being an outer distance from one another exhibit.
  • connection clamp is from US-A-3,895,852 known.
  • the connecting clamp of the prior art is in one Housing arranged so that it always has the same width, regardless of whether a conductor is between the conductor receiving parts is arranged or not. The width is too regardless of which conductor cross-section a possible Head has.
  • the connecting terminal have a smaller width. So in this case Space in a control cabinet or the like, in which the Connection clamp is installed, wasted.
  • the object of the present invention is a To create connecting clamp, which is always so little Space used up as necessary.
  • the object is achieved in that the outer sides are electrical are insulating that with conductor-free conductor receiving parts the external distance is as large as the basic body width and when arranged between the conductor receiving parts Conductors with maximum cross-section the outside distance larger than that Basic body width is.
  • the conductor receiving parts lead you to an insertion side open, funnel-shaped insertion area and form a substantially closed holding area the conductor is particularly light between the conductor receiving parts insertable and will also work well between the conductor receiving parts held.
  • connection clamp is particularly easy to use, if the connecting clamp for pressing the conductor into the holding area a swivel lever that can be swiveled into the insertion area having. For reasons of protection against accidental contact Swivel lever with an electrically insulating sheathing exhibit.
  • the conductor is special little effort can be inserted into the holding area.
  • the production of the connecting clamp is particularly simple and inexpensive if the base body consists of two symmetrical half-shells formed to each other, the connecting clamp a second pair of cooperating conductor receiving parts with electrically insulating outer sides and on each of the half shells, one conductor receiving part each of the pairs of conductor receiving parts is molded so that the Connection clamp by assembling two half shells is imaginable.
  • a connecting terminal has a rigid base body 1 and a first pair of cooperating elastic Conductor receiving parts 2.
  • the base body 1 consists of a electrically insulating material, e.g. Plastic. He has a basic body width d.
  • the conductor receiving parts 2 are also made of an electrically insulating material, e.g. Plastic. Their outer sides 2 'are thus also electrical insulating. The outer sides 2 'have an outer distance a to each other.
  • the conductor receiving parts 2 form an insertion area on the one hand 3 and on the other hand a holding area 4.
  • the insertion area 3 is open to an insertion side and tapers funnel-shaped towards the holding area 4.
  • the holding area 4 is essentially closed.
  • the connecting terminal has a pivot lever 5, which in the insertion area 3 is pivotable.
  • the pivot lever 5 is e.g. a stamped part.
  • a conductor 6 pressed into the holding area 4 from the insertion area 3 become.
  • the conductor 6 is between the conductor receiving parts 2 clampable.
  • the pivot lever 5 is electrically conductive and has several Contact tips 7, which face the conductor 6. Out For reasons of protection against contact, the swivel lever 5 has a electrically insulating sheath 8. At the top of the A lever 9 is integrally formed on the swivel lever 5 Actuating tool, e.g. a screwdriver can. As a result, the pivot lever 5 is small Force swiveling.
  • the contact element 10 has the same as that Swivel lever 5 contact tips 11 facing the head 6 are. Penetrate when swiveling the swivel lever 5 the contact tips 7, 11 any insulation of the conductor 6 and thus contact him. The electrical contact is then passed on to a second conductor 6 'which between a second pair of cooperating conductor receiving parts 12 is clamped.
  • the second pair of conductor receiving elements 12 is completely equivalent with the first pair of conductor receiving parts 2.
  • the second pair of conductor receiving elements 12 also made of plastic. His outsides are therefore also electrically insulating. They also point out the outside distance a.
  • the base body 1 consists of two symmetrically formed Half shells 1 ', 1 ".
  • On each of the half shells 1', 1" is a conductor receiving part 2, 12 each one of the pairs of Conductor receiving parts 2, 12 molded.
  • the half shells have 1 ', 1 "interacting fixing and holding elements 13, 14 on, by means of which the half-shells 1 ', 1 "positively and non-positively are compressible into each other. So by simple Assembling two half shells 1 ', 1 "the connecting clamp be formed.
  • the fixing and holding elements 13, 14 are e.g. designed as pins and recesses.
  • connection terminal is not equipped, i.e. with conductor-free Conductor receiving parts 2, 12, the outer distance a is a maximum large as the basic body width d. If, however, between the Conductor receiving parts 2, 12 a conductor 6 or 6 'introduced , the conductor receiving parts 2, 12 give way elastically. This increases the outside distance a.
  • the outside distance a fits the actual conductor cross section. If the conductor 6, 6 ' assumes the maximum cross section, the outer distance a is larger than the basic body width d.
  • the effective width of the connection clamp is consequently determined by the cross section of the conductor actually introduced conductor 6, 6 'determined, not by the maximum permissible conductor cross-section. Thus consumed the connecting terminal according to the invention always only minimal needed space.
