Definitions
- the invention relates to a connecting element for fastening an electrical Conductor at a connection, in particular of a motor vehicle battery, which has a curved, in particular part-circular connection section to accommodate the connector and two to the connector section has adjacent legs.
- each of the legs there is a hole in each of the legs provided so that the legs by, for example, a Allow the screw / nut assembly to compress, causing the Width of the connection section can be reduced and the connection element on Battery connector is clamped.
- connection of a battery is typically by an essentially vertically oriented, straight line or conical cylinder.
- the connecting element is from attached to the top of the connector so that the connector section encloses cylindrical connection.
- the screw / nut arrangement is essentially perpendicular to the cylindrical battery connector oriented so that a tool for actuating the screw / nut arrangement held horizontally and in this orientation to the Screw must be brought up.
- connection element Because of the limited Space and the resulting restricted freedom of movement turn out to be problematic.
- the connection of an electrical conductor the motor vehicle battery can be very cumbersome in such a case and be time consuming.
- the object underlying the invention is to create a Connection element of the type mentioned, which the attachment an electrical conductor at the connection of a battery, in particular a motor vehicle battery, facilitated.
- connection element with the features of Claim 1 provided.
- a connecting element according to the invention has a curved, in particular part-circular connection section for receiving the connection, two legs adjoining the connection section and one separate, adjustable clamping element enclosing both legs Widen up.
- connection element is an actuation of Clamping element and thus a clamping of the connection element on the connection e.g. a battery in e.g. vertically oriented connection not just from a horizontal position, but in principle from any direction and especially with a vertical oriented tool possible.
- connection element can therefore not only be on the connection from above of the battery, but also attach it from above, if that in Form of a separate component provided and thus in principle arbitrary adjustable clamping element after appropriate alignment from above can be actuated.
- the connection element is assembled in this way considerably relieved.
- a simplification of the attachment of the connecting element according to the invention also arises from the fact that intended for assembly in the legs Bores e.g. are no longer required for a screw.
- the tensioning element allows any design the leg and the connecting section of the connecting element according to the invention. These can e.g. from a sheet material or a tubular starting material.
- the separate tensioning element can advantageously with different connection sections and thighs can be used.
- the invention enables the use of commercially available Components in particular for the clamping element, which in comparison manufacturing costs reduced to known connecting elements can be.
- the clamping element in one Pre-assembly state enclosing the legs relative to the connection section is movable.
- the tensioning element can be in front of bring the final assembly into a position that is as convenient as possible Attachment of the connecting element allowed.
- the tensioning element is preferably designed as a clamp. With such a Component that is simple and inexpensive to manufacture can Function of a tensioning organ can be optimally fulfilled.
- the clamping member has one partially annular clamping section, the free ends of which protrude as two Tabs are formed, via which the clamping section in the Width is adjustable.
- the tabs are preferably each with a bore provided, it proving to be particularly advantageous if a tab provided with a thread and in particular designed as a nut is.
- a separate nut is unnecessary, so that only one Screw needs to be inserted into the holes in the tabs.
- Another advantageous embodiment of the invention consists in that the clamping member has a substantially oval cross section. This can cause an unwanted rotation of the tensioning element on the Thighs are prevented.
- At least one leg for positioning of the tensioning element in a distance from the connecting section Area expanded outwards.
- the length is at least one Leg approximately corresponds to the width of the clamping element.
- connection section 10 for receiving a not shown Connection of a motor vehicle battery with one to the connection section 10 adjacent shorter legs 12 and one the connecting section 10 adjacent longer leg 14, which in a tubular crimp area 16 merges. Both legs 12, 14 are enclosed by a clamping member 18 adjustable width.
- the legs 12, 14 and the connecting section 10 are made in one piece an electrically conductive, strip-shaped sheet material.
- in the Crimp area 16 widens the sheet metal strip, whereby it becomes a Tube is bent with a diameter that is approximately the width of the metal strip corresponds in the region of the legs 12, 14.
- the legs 12, 14 run parallel from the connection section 10 to each other. At its free end 22 is the shorter one, not the one Crimp area 16 provided legs 12 bent about 90 ° outwards.
- the tensioning element 18 is designed as a clamp, which has a tensioning section 24, which is formed by a strip of material which is bent in this way is that the cross section of the clamp is oval. At the ends of the Clamping section 24 is closed by a first tab 26 and a second Tab 28 on. Both tabs 26, 28 are provided with a bore, wherein the second tab 28 is significantly thicker than the first tab 26 and has a thread, whereby a nut element is formed.
- a screw 30 is through the in the first tab 26 formed bore and with the second Tab 28 screwed. This screw / nut arrangement allows adjust the width of the tensioning member 18.
- clamping member 18 An exact positioning of the clamping member 18 is on the one hand by the kinked free end 22 of the shorter leg 12 and on the other hand the tubular extension of the longer leg 14 guaranteed to the outside.
- the clamp 18 is thus at the narrow point between the connection section 10 and the leg extensions fixed.
- the oval cross section of the clamping section 24 ensures at least one rough alignment of the clamping member 18 such that the axis of the Screw connection approximately perpendicular to that through the connecting section 10 defined plane and thus approximately parallel to the longitudinal axis of the battery connection runs. If the connector from above on the Battery connector inserted, the screw 30 can also from above can be operated with a tool.
