Definitions

  • the present invention relates to an electrical connector with at least one blade spring of the cage type, said blade forming very classic a triangular loop with rounded corners, the two end portions of which are oriented substantially perpendicular to each other, the first being fixed on a terminal electrically conductive which also passes through a window made in the second.
  • Such connectors are well known, and generally manipulated using a tool that is inserted into an opening provided for this purpose in the devices they equip, in order to exercise an action aimed at forcing the spring to open the connection.
  • the exercise of the action can nevertheless be done in two ways distinct: according to a first hypothesis, the blade of the tool introduced in the device exerts a direct action on the blade spring that it solicit without intermediary.
  • the connectors can be fitted with levers handling is accessible from outside the device housing, and can be handled by hand or by a tool, either with a receiving the tip of the tool blade, which can act on the lever, which then retransmits the action to the leaf spring.
  • the invention falls into this latter category. It relates to also more particularly modular electrical devices which are provided with such connectors.
  • One of the key problems solve in the design of this type of connection devices lies in particular in the ease of mounting them in the devices that they equip.
  • this criterion is essential because it can induce significant economic benefits.
  • the lever is self-supported by the structure formed by the terminal and the leaf spring, and the assembly therefore presents itself compact, pre-assembled.
  • the invention is mainly characterized in that the terminal and the lever handling are configured so as to maintain the lever between said terminal and the leaf comes out regardless of its position relative to terminal.
  • the terminal is configured so that it extends to the top of the culminating portion of the leaf spring, means for guiding the movement of the lever in order to constrain said blade being provided at this level.
  • these guide means consist of at least one housing for guiding the rotation of a lever shaft.
  • Rotary configurations are the most common for this type of connector, but the aforementioned structure of the leaf spring and the terminal may also allow considering a translative type solution.
  • the guide housing consists of at least half a bearing with a semi-cylindrical recess, the opening of which is oriented towards the blade spring, the position and the dimensioning of said recess as well as of the shaft of the lever being provided so that the latter is in permanent contact with the blade comes out when the shaft is adjusted in the recess.
  • the handling lever is always maintained, because the blade comes out plate in all cases the shaft of the manipulation lever at the bottom of the hemispherical housings.
  • the terminal has an L-shape, comprising a branch substantially perpendicular to that which supports the leaf spring, is developing near and parallel to the portion of the latter comprising the window.
  • the free end of the L branch overhanging the summit part of the leaf spring has two semi-cylindrical half-bearings opening onto the said upper part, separated by a middle panel oriented in the extension of said branch.
  • This middle section fulfills a mechanical stop function for the lever, the stable holding of the lever when the blade is not constrained being unable to understood to be obtained only if the latter is retained by a stop while remaining at blade contact in rest position.
  • the lever comprises, at its end cooperating with the half bearings, a transverse shaft to which is fixed a stop central, which is integral with a main body transmitting the action aimed at constrain the spring.
  • the free end of the lever body has a projection axial provided with a recess, preferably transverse.
  • This recess allows in particular the insertion of the free end of the blade of a tool, for example a screwdriver, a tool traditionally used to constrain leaf springs of such connectors.
  • the face of the lever body opposite the leaf spring has a protuberance transmitting the action imparted to the lever to said blade spring.
  • This protuberance optimizes the transmission of the movement of the lever to the leaf spring, which has, in its zone of cooperation with the lever, a inclined surface which progressively deviates from said face of the lever. He is by therefore interesting to have such a protuberance, which allows multiply the forces applied to this part of the leaf spring, or even orient the force transmitted to the blade.
  • the connector can comprise at least two adjacent spring blades, the portion of the terminal supporting said blades being then axially divided into at least two separate sections.
  • the lever can itself be divided into two symmetrical parts according to a median longitudinal axis, making possible the differentiated manipulation of each leaf spring.
  • the terminal has a U-shape which has been made be rotated 90 ° counterclockwise, the leaf spring being fixed on the lower horizontal branch, its portion including the window being arranged at near the opening of the U.
  • the free end of the upper branch of the U has a half-bearing with hemispherical housing open towards the center of the volume between the branches of the U.
  • the lever is therefore to a large extent contained in the volume defined by the different branches of the U.
  • It preferably comprises, at its axial end cooperating with the half-bearing, a transverse shaft fixed to a central body whose other axial end is with a protuberance crossing the vertical wall of the inverted U by means a window made in said wall, the emerging part of said protuberance being provided with a recess, preferably transverse.
  • the face of the lever body facing of the leaf spring has a protuberance transmitting the printed action to the lever to said leaf spring.
  • this protuberance not far from the axis of rotation, allows as before to multiply the efforts exerted on the lever, and in particular to transmit them according to a correct orientation.
  • the connector according to this configuration can also include two adjacent leaf springs, the lower leg of the U then also being split in two in an axial direction, at its end free.
  • the lever can always be divided into two symmetrical parts, depending on a median longitudinal axis.
  • the present invention relates not only the connector as described above, but also the devices modular electrical circuit breaker type which are provided with at least one such connector.
  • Such devices are characterized in this case in that their housing comprises means for housing the inserted connector (s) as sub-assemblies complete.
  • the connectors can be arranged superimposed, and partially offset transversely.
  • the inevitable transverse overlap is then without practical effect, because of the superposition.
  • the terminal (1) on which the blades are arranged springs (2, 2 ') is configured in L.
  • the horizontal portion of the terminal (1) is divided into two parallel sections to allow installation of the boards springs (2, 2 '), as will be shown in more detail with reference to Figure 3.
  • the vertical portion of said terminal (1) is surmounted by two half-bearings (3, 3 ') separated by a middle section (4).
  • the half-bearings (3, 3 ') house a shaft (5) the central part of which is integral with a stop (6) connecting it to the main body (7) of the handling lever (L).
  • the other axial end of said lever (L) is occupied by a projection (8) provided with a transverse recess (9).
  • a protuberance (10) equips the lower surface of the main body (7) of the lever (L), said protuberance (10) being directly in contact with the portion inclined of each leaf spring (2, 2 '), as can be clearly seen in Figure 2.
  • Figure 3 shows the assembly of the different elements of the connector the invention.
  • the leaf springs (2, 2 ') are threaded in the horizontal portions separated from the terminal (1), then the shaft (5) of the lever (L) is clipped into the half-bearings (3, 3 '). The direction of insertion is shown by the arrows. In position when resting, the stop (6) is always in contact with the middle panel (4).
  • the variant shown in FIGS. 5 and 6 comprises an inverted U terminal, that is to say having undergone a 90 ° rotation in the counterclockwise direction.
  • the shaft (5) is housed in a single recess half-bearing hemispherical (3) equipping the end of the upper branch of the terminal (1).
  • a window (11) practiced in the vertical branch of the U allowing the passage of the projection (8) provided with the transverse recess (9).
  • the lower branch is only subdivided into two at the level of its free end, the leaf springs (2, 2 ') being inserted into the U-shaped terminal (1) in opposite direction of the insertion direction used in the previous variant.
  • the operation is basically the same, the lever (L) being self-supporting between the top portion of the leaf springs (2, 2 ') and the housing of the half-bearing hemispherical (3).
  • a stress on the end of the lever (L) for example at using a tool whose end of the blade is applied in the transverse recess (9), causes a rotation of the shaft (5) in its hemispherical housing, the protuberance (10) then transmitting the multiplied force to said leaf spring (2, 2 '), which causes the connector to open.
  • Figures 7a to 7c are partial perspective views of apparatus electrical modules which can be fitted with connectors according to the invention.
  • these connectors are two in number, as for example in the case of neutral phase products, the standardized width of said devices does not not allow to have at the same level two connectors of the invention.
  • Each leaf spring is assigned an orifice (21, 22, 23, 24), which can optionally be made in a guide barrel (25) equipping the face side of the modular electrical appliance, regardless of its configuration.
  • the facades (F) of these modular devices are equipped with holes (27, 27 ') allowing the insertion of a tool blade intended to cooperate with the levers (L) connectors of the invention.
  • said facades (F) can be equipped with test ports (26, 26 ') allowing access to live parts with a tester type instrument, in particular to check the quality of the connection.
