Description

Die Erfindung betrifft eine Anschluss- und Verbindungsklemme zum Aufsetzen auf eine Sammelschiene mit beidseitiger Umklammerung der Sammelschiene, wobei ein Klemmengehäuse durch zwei gelenkig miteinander verbundene Klemmenteile gebildet ist, das jeweilige Klemmenteil zwei im aufgesetzten Zustand die Sammelschiene seitlich umgreifende, entgegen der Wirkung mindestens einer Spannfeder aufspreizbare Klemmenschenkel aufweist, die mittels eines Steges verbunden sind, sowie ein Gewindestift einen dem Klemmengehäuse zugeordneten Gewindeabschnitt durchsetzt und eine Druckplatte aufnimmt.The invention relates to a connection and connection terminal for mounting on a busbar with the busbar clasped on both sides, where a terminal housing by two hinged together Clamp parts is formed, the respective clamp part two in the attached state encompassing the busbar laterally, at least contrary to the effect has a tension spring expandable clamp legs, which means a web are connected, as well as a grub screw to the terminal housing passes through assigned thread section and receives a pressure plate.

Derartige Klemmen dienen der Verbindung von Leitungen mit einem Schienensystem. Das Schienensystem besteht üblicherweise aus Flachkupfer. Es ist jedoch auch eine Anwendung auf Doppel-T-Schienen denkbar. Es sollen keinerlei Bohrungen an der Schiene erforderlich sein.Such terminals are used to connect cables to a rail system. The rail system usually consists of flat copper. It is however, an application on double T rails is also conceivable. There shouldn't be any Holes on the rail may be required.

Eine Anschluss- und Verbindungsklemme der eingangs genannten Art ist aus der DE 42 35 444 C1 bekannt. Bei dieser sind die beiden Klemmenteile identisch, aber unsymmetrisch ausgebildet. Mittels einer blattförmigen Spannfeder ist eine Klemmenmutter zur Aufnahme eines Gewindestiftes mit Druckplatte in einem Loch des Klemmengehäuses gelagert, wobei dieses Loch durch zwei seitliche Ausnehmungen im jeweiligen Klemmenteil gebildet sind. Beim Zusammenfügen der Klemmenteile sind diese Ausnehmungen aufeinander zu gerichtet und lassen so den Raum zur Aufnahme der Klemmenmutter frei.A connection and connection terminal of the type mentioned is off DE 42 35 444 C1 known. With this the two clamp parts are identical, but asymmetrical. Using a leaf-shaped tension spring is a clamp nut for receiving a grub screw with pressure plate in a hole in the terminal box, this hole through two lateral recesses are formed in the respective terminal part. When assembling of the clamping parts, these recesses are directed towards one another and leave the space for receiving the clamp nut free.

Die Montage einer solchen Klemme ist relativ kompliziert, weil zunächst die beiden Klemmenteile zu montieren sind, anschließend die Klemmenmutter mit der Spannfeder in dem im Klemmengehäuse gebildeten Loch zu fixieren ist. Die unsymmetrische Ausbildung der identischen Klemmenteile erschwert das Handling bei der Montage.The assembly of such a clamp is relatively complicated, because the first Both clamp parts are to be installed, then the clamp nut with the tension spring is to be fixed in the hole formed in the terminal housing. The asymmetrical design of the identical terminal parts makes handling difficult during installation.

Aufgabe der vorliegenden Erfindung ist es, eine Anschluss- und Verbindungsklemme der eingangs genannten Art so weiter zu bilden, dass diese aus einfach herstellbaren und einfach montierbaren Teilen gebildet werden kann, die möglichst per CNC-Technik hergestellt werden können. Es soll somit auf große Werkzeuginvestitionen verzichtet werden können. The object of the present invention is a connection and connection terminal of the type mentioned at the outset so that they are simple producible and easy to assemble parts can be formed as possible can be manufactured using CNC technology. It is said to be great Tool investments can be dispensed with.

Die Erfindung schlägt zwei grundsätzliche Lösungen vor.The invention proposes two basic solutions.

Eine erste Gestaltung der Anschluss- und Verbindungsklemme der eingangs genannten Art sieht vor, dass eines der beiden Klemmenteile mit einem Loch mit Gewinde zur Aufnahme des Gewindestifts versehen ist. Gemäß der zweiten grundsätzlichen Lösung ist vorgesehen, dass eines der beiden Klemmenteile mit einem Loch zur Aufnahme einer Klemmenmutter versehen ist, wobei die Klemmenmutter der Aufnahme des Gewindestifts dient und entgegen der Zustellrichtung des Gewindestifts axial festgelegt im zugeordneten Klemmenteil gelagert ist.A first design of the connection and connection terminal of the entry mentioned type provides that one of the two clamp parts with a hole is provided with a thread for receiving the setscrew. According to the second basic solution is provided that one of the two terminal parts is provided with a hole for receiving a clamp nut, the Clamp nut serves to hold the setscrew and against the infeed direction of the grub screw axially fixed in the assigned terminal part is stored.

Wesentlich ist bei der vorliegenden Erfindung demnach, dass das Gewinde zur Aufnahme des Gewindestifts bzw. die Klemmenmutter zur Aufnahme des Gewindestifts einem der beiden Klemmenteile zugeordnet ist. Der Gewindestift ist somit nicht zwischen den Klemmenteilen hindurchgeführt, sondern er durchsetzt eines der Klemmenteile. Die Klemmenteile sind infolgedessen unterschiedlich gestaltet, bevorzugt allerdings jeweils symmetrisch zu einer Ebene, die senkrecht zur Schwenkachse der Klemme verläuft.It is therefore essential in the present invention that the thread for Admission of the grub screw or the clamping nut for the admission of the grub screw is assigned to one of the two terminal parts. The grub screw is thus not passed between the terminal parts, but penetrated one of the terminal parts. As a result, the terminal parts are different designed, but preferably symmetrical to a plane, which runs perpendicular to the pivot axis of the clamp.

Aufgrund der erfindungsgemäßen Gestaltungen hat die Spannfeder nicht notwendig auch eine Haltefunktion für die Klemmenmutter. Bei der Erfindung kommt der mindestens einen Spannfeder die zusätzliche Funktion zu, einem seitlichen Verschieben der Klemmenteile entgegenzuwirken.Because of the designs according to the invention, the tension spring is not necessary also a holding function for the clamp nut. In the invention the at least one tension spring has the additional function of one counteract lateral displacement of the clamp parts.

Das Klemmengehäuse besteht bevorzugt aus Blech. Durch Umformen werden die beiden Klemmenteile erzeugt. Dies vorzugsweise einschließlich eines am jeweiligen Klemmenteil angebrachten Ansatzes zum Ergreifen der Klemme zwecks Überführen der Klemmenteile in die Spreizstellung der Klemme.The terminal housing is preferably made of sheet metal. By reshaping generated the two terminal parts. This preferably including an am Appropriate approach to gripping the clamp for the purpose of transferring the clamp parts into the spread position of the clamp.

Die beiden unterschiedlichen Klemmenteile passen so zueinander, dass deren Klemmenschenkel beweglich für eine Montage vorgesehen sind. Der Drehpunkt der beiden Klemmenteile ist so gewählt, dass für die Hauptanwendungen 30 mm und 20 mm Schienenbreite die Klemme senkrecht zu der von den Stromschienen gebildeten Ebene steht.The two different terminal parts fit together so that their Terminal legs are movably provided for assembly. The fulcrum of the two terminal parts is selected so that 30 mm and 20 mm rail width the terminal perpendicular to that of the conductor rails level formed.

Ist das eine Klemmenteil im Bereich des Loches nicht unmittelbar mit einem geschnittenen Gewinde zur Aufnahme des Gewindestiftes versehen, sondern nimmt das Loch die Klemmenmutter auf, wird es als vorteilhaft angesehen, wenn diese einen Ansatz aufweist, der in das Loch im Steg eingesteckt ist, wobei der Ansatz kraftschlüssig mit dem Steg verbunden ist. Vorzugsweise ist eine leichte Presspassung zwischen dem Ansatz und dem Steg vorgesehen.Is that a clamp part in the area of the hole not directly with one provided cut thread for receiving the grub screw, but if the hole receives the clamp nut, it is considered beneficial if this has an approach, which is inserted into the hole in the web, wherein the approach is non-positively connected to the web. Preferably one is slight press fit between the neck and the web is provided.

Die an den Klemmenteilen angreifende, mindestens eine Spannfeder bewirkt, dass die Klemmenteile sich stetig zu schließen versuchen. Sind zwei Zugfedern vorgesehen, die an den Klemmenschenkeln jeweils unterschiedlicher Klemmenteile angreifen, verhindern diese das gegenseitige Verschieben der Klemmenteile. Diese Funktionalität kann auch durch eine Ω-förmig gebogene Blattfeder erreicht werden, die als Druckfeder im Bereich des Gewindes im Steg bzw. der Klemmenmutter zwischen den beiden Klemmenteilen angebracht wird. Durch Ihre Verwindungssteifigkeit verhindert sie zusätzlich auch das Verschieben der Klemmenteile zueinander.The at least one tension spring acting on the clamp parts causes that the terminal parts try to close continuously. Are two tension springs provided, each on the terminal legs of different terminal parts attack, these prevent the terminal parts from moving. This functionality can also be achieved by a Ω-shaped leaf spring can be achieved as a compression spring in the area of the thread in the web or Clamp nut is attached between the two clamp parts. By Their torsional rigidity also prevents them from moving Terminal parts to each other.

Die mindestens eine Spannfeder wird insbesondere während der Montage der Klemme benötigt. In aller Regel ist nach dem Montieren der Klemme eine Relativverschiebung der Klemmenteile unproblematisch, weil zusätzlich montierte Gehäuseteile diese positionieren.The at least one tension spring is particularly during the assembly of the Clamp needed. As a rule, there is a relative displacement after mounting the clamp of the terminal parts is unproblematic because they are additionally installed Position the housing parts.

Weitere Merkmale der Erfindung sind in den Unteransprüchen, der Beschreibung der Figuren und den Figuren selbst dargestellt.Further features of the invention are in the subclaims, the description of the figures and the figures themselves.

Diese Sammelschiene hat eine Breite von 20 mm.The connection and connection terminal 1 shown in Figures 1 and 2 is placed on a rectangular cross section having busbar 2 and clutch it on both sides. This busbar has a width of 20 mm.

Die Klemme 1 weist ein Klemmengehäuse auf, däs durch zwei gelenkig miteinander verbundene Klemmenteile 3 und 4 gebildet ist. Die Klemmenteile 3 und 4 sind unterschiedlich gestaltet, allerdings jeweils symmetrisch. Das Klemmenteil 3 weist zwei Schenkel 5 und 6 mit hakenförmigen Enden 7 auf, die die Sammelschiene 2 hintergreifen. Die beiden Schenkel 5 und 6 verbindet im Bereich deren den hakenförmigen Enden 7 abgewandten Enden ein Steg 8. Entsprechend ist das andere Klemmenteil 4 ausgebildet: Es weist zwei Schenkel 9 und 10 mit hakenförmigen Enden 11 sowie einen die Schenkel 9 und 10 verbindenden Steg 12 auf.The terminal 1 has a terminal housing, which is articulated to one another by two connected terminal parts 3 and 4 is formed. Terminal parts 3 and 4 are designed differently, but each is symmetrical. The terminal part 3 has two legs 5 and 6 with hook-shaped ends 7, which the busbar 2 reach behind. The two legs 5 and 6 connects in the area whose ends facing away from the hook-shaped ends 7 are a web 8 the other terminal part 4 is formed: it has two legs 9 and 10 with hook-shaped ends 11 and one connecting the legs 9 and 10 Bridge 12.

Der Steg 12 ist symmetrisch zu den Schenkeln 9 und 10 des Klemmenteiles 4 mit einer Bohrung 13 versehen, die eine Klemmenmutter 14 aufnimmt. Diese weist einen Ansatz 15 auf, der in die Bohrung 13 eingepresst ist, so dass die Klemmenmutter 14 im Klemmenteil 4 gehalten ist. Die Klemmenmutter 14 weist einen weiteren Ansatz 16 auf, dessen Außendurchmesser größer ist als der Durchmesser der Bohrung 13. Mit diesem Ansatz 16 ist die Klemmenmutter 14 zwischen den Schenkeln der Klemmenteile positioniert und liegt am Steg 12 an. In die Klemmenmutter 14 ist ein Gewindestift 17 eingeschraubt, dessen zwischen den Klemmenteilen 3 und 4 positioniertes freies Ende eine Druckplatte 18 aufnimmt. Diese erstreckt sich im wesentlichen über die gesamte von den Schenkeln 6 und 10 sowie 5 und 9 begrenzte Fläche, endet somit in geringem Abstand zu den Schenkeln 6 und 10 bzw. 5 und 9. Die Druckplatte 18 ist unten mit einer nach innen gerichteten Wölbung 19 versehen, um die zu klemmende Leitung zwischen sich und der Sammelschiene 2 aufzunehmen.The web 12 is symmetrical to the legs 9 and 10 of the clamping part 4 provided with a bore 13 which receives a clamp nut 14. This has a shoulder 15 which is pressed into the bore 13 so that the Clamping nut 14 is held in the clamping part 4. The clamp nut 14 has a further approach 16, whose outer diameter is larger than that Diameter of the bore 13. With this extension 16 is the clamp nut 14 positioned between the legs of the terminal parts and is against the web 12. In the clamp nut 14, a threaded pin 17 is screwed, the between the free end positioned on the clamp parts 3 and 4 a pressure plate 18 records. This extends essentially over the entire of the Legs 6 and 10 and 5 and 9 limited area, thus ends in a small amount Distance to the legs 6 and 10 or 5 and 9. The pressure plate 18 is below provided with an inward curvature 19 to the to be clamped Take line between yourself and the busbar 2.

In dem Bereich zwischen der Druckplatte 18 und den beiden Stegen 8 und 12 der Klemmenteile 3 und 4, somit innerhalb der Klemmen 1, sind zwei wendelförmige Zugfedern 20 angeordnet, wobei die jeweilige Zugfeder 20 mit ihren beiden Enden in Ausnehmungen 21 des Schenkels 5 und 9 bzw. 6 und 10 eingesteckt ist.In the area between the pressure plate 18 and the two webs 8 and 12 the terminal parts 3 and 4, thus within the terminals 1, are two helical Tension springs 20 arranged, the respective tension spring 20 with their both ends inserted into recesses 21 of the legs 5 and 9 or 6 and 10 is.

Geöffnet wird die Klemme 1, indem im Bereich des jeweiligen Steges 8 und 12 angeordnete, senkrecht zur Stegfläche nach oben orientierte Lappenabschnitte 22 der Klemmenteile 3 und 4 von Hand ergriffen und diese aufeinander zu bewegt werden. Hierbei werden die beiden Zugfedern 20 gespreizt. Die Schwenkung der beiden Klemmenteile 3 und 4 zueinander erfolgt im Bereich eines Gelenkes 23, das durch vorspringende Lappen 24 der Schenkel 5 und 6 und einen dem Lappenprofil entsprechenden Rücksprung 25 in den Schenkeln 9 und 10 gebildet ist.Terminal 1 is opened by 8 and 12 in the area of the respective web arranged flap sections, oriented vertically to the web surface 22 of the clamp parts 3 and 4 gripped by hand and moved towards each other become. Here, the two tension springs 20 are spread. The swing of the two clamp parts 3 and 4 to each other takes place in the region of a joint 23, the projecting tabs 24 of the legs 5 and 6 and one recess 25 corresponding to the flap profile in the legs 9 and 10 is formed.

Nach dem Aufsetzen der Klemme 1 auf die Sammelschiene 2 wird die Druckplatte 8 zugestellt, indem der Gewindestift 17 mittels eines Werkzeuges, das in eine Innensechskantbohrung 26 eingreift, eingedreht wird.After placing the clamp 1 on the busbar 2, the pressure plate 8 delivered by the threaded pin 17 by means of a tool that in a hexagon socket 26 engages, is screwed.

Die Klemmenteile 3 und 4 sind aus Blechteilen gestanzt und durch Biegen gebildet.The clamp parts 3 and 4 are punched from sheet metal parts and formed by bending.

Die beiden Zugfedern 20 wirken einer Relatiwerschiebung der beiden Klemmenteile 3 und 4 in Längsrichtung der Sammelschiene 2 entgegen. The two tension springs 20 act on a relative displacement of the two clamp parts 3 and 4 in the longitudinal direction of the busbar 2.

Das Gelenk 23 ist derart gestaltet, dass für die Hauptanwendungen 30 mm und 20 mm Sammelschienenbreite die Klemme 1 senkrecht zu der von der Schiene gebildeten Ebene steht. Dies ist in Figur 3 für die 30 mm breite Sammelschiene 2 veranschaulicht.The joint 23 is designed such that for the main applications 30 mm and 20 mm busbar width, terminal 1 perpendicular to that of the busbar level formed. This is in Figure 3 for the 30 mm wide busbar 2 illustrates.
