Definitions

  • the invention relates to a screwless clamp according to Preamble of claim 1; such a clamp with a correspondingly designed pressure member (force member) is known from WO 8701244.
  • DE 32 37 832 A1 is a screwless clamp known, the clamping spring by a rotatable clamping member detachable with side catches or with a busbar is connectable.
  • Such screwless clamps are also called cage clamps or as a "cage clamp".
  • a cage clamp is generally with a suitable object, for example a screwdriver, directly the live one Clamp spring depressed.
  • an insulated tool is required to get out of a screwless one Clamp a conductor to be connected again can.
  • each wire is in its own line Connection process clamped and if necessary also released again.
  • Actuate especially open, a screwless clamp for several electrically isolated wires at the same time, comb-shaped insert parts are already provided Service. However, it is necessary that the actuation side is widely accessible.
  • the invention has for its object a screwless Develop clamp of the type mentioned that simple and is easy to use and multi-pole clamping on the one hand and closing unused connection openings on the other hand enables.
  • the comb-like compound device is in the clamp arrangement or integrated in the housing of a device, however, so that a outer plug-in part and the operating space for this are omitted.
  • the comb-like design has the advantage that the Compound device slightly to the side of the baying Clamp body can be used in the assembly.
  • the release body as a composite device also ladder-like openings form with actuation levels for the clamping springs. This results in particularly high stability with little material achieved.
  • a partition wall can be connected to the release body stand, the connection openings when not activated Solder body at least partially closes.
  • the connection openings when not activated Solder body at least partially closes.
  • the individual partition walls can be firmly or better elastically connected to the release body.
  • release body as a composite device can be actuated via an intermediate piece that leads to the housing wall an installation device forms locking lugs in order the clamping springs actuated by the composite device in the open state to be able to hold.
  • this intermediate piece can be cylindrical be and have lateral bayonet-like locking lugs.
  • the screwless clamp according to FIG 1 works with a detachable Clamping spring 1, the conductor to be connected 2 under Connect the spring force to a busbar 3 can. With the clamping spring 1 is 4 in its loose direction To bring loose body 5 into active connection, the part of a Compound device for releasing several clamp springs in a row is. The release body 5 slides in a guide 6, the part a complete terminal housing or part of the housing of an installation device is.
  • the release body 5 is as Compound device provided with openings like a ladder Form actuation levels 10, each in line Clamping springs 1 can act in the sense of their opening. you compare FIG. 3.
  • a partition wall 11 according to FG 4 in Are connected, the connection openings 12 when not actuated Release body at least partially closes. If the Partition wall is designed as individual partition walls, which are designed to be movable separately, one can unused connection openings 12 independently of each other close when the release body 5 in its starting position when the spring 1 is relaxed. The individual partition walls can be fixed or cheaper elastic with the release body 5 be connected.
  • the release body 5 is as Compound device operable via an intermediate piece 13, the to the housing wall forms locking lugs 14, by means of the clamping springs 1 held in its open position by means of the release body 5 can be.
  • This intermediate piece 13 is in the embodiment cylindrical and has lateral bayonet-like Latches on. In the embodiment can the intermediate piece for locking and releasing the locking be rotated.
  • a screwless clamp of the type described has, inter alia, the following advantages:
  • the actuation of the terminal can be operated from the front in the case of a multi-level terminal arrangement, as is customary with terminal blocks. There is no need for increased space for aids for actuating the clamping spring, so no access must be kept free for a release operation. Short assembly times can be achieved with adjacent terminals by operating several terminals at the same time.
  • the clamping springs can be completely insulated from the actuation side and there is no need to isolate an aid since this is not required anyway. If necessary, the clamp can simply be designed in such a way that stable opening is achieved.
  • the clamped state can easily be made visible, for example by the position of the release body or by the Position of a plunger or an intermediate piece.
