Definitions

  • the invention relates to a terminal for connecting an electrical conductor, which in a housing forming a device frame one in the assembled state the spiral spring pinching the conductor end and a pivoted actuator with a cam disc for increased tensioning of the spring and thus Has opening the terminal, the actuator itself by a End section of an elongated tool to be used as a lever, in particular a screwdriver, for which it has a receptacle.
  • Such a clamp is known from DE 195 29 028 A1.
  • the actuator of this In the open position of the clamp, the clamp has a basically stable end position in that a flat dent in the cam on a flat bulge the spiral spring lies. The fitter then has both hands free for his work. In case of accidental Butting the actuator or the tool can do that Actuator, however, are brought out of the stable end position and snap back.
  • the invention is based, the stability of the actuator in the task To increase the open position of the clamp.
  • this purpose is achieved in that in the open position Clamp the end of the tool can be pushed through to a housing part, by which the tool is locked against swinging back and thus the actuator is held or secured in the open position.
  • the locking engagement for example an engagement of the screwdriver tip in a pocket formed in the housing, can have an incomparably greater depth and thus security than the aforementioned engagement of a flat bulge in a flat dent. It is not even necessary to achieve a cam dead center on the spring. Due to the blocking according to the invention, the actuator is still held. If the cam lies on the spring with a dead center, the locking mechanism secures the actuating element in the open position.
  • the receptacle for the end section of the tool is preferably a continuous recess in the actuating member and the tool can be advanced further beyond the receptacle; the housing part then lies approximately in the extension of the receptacle.
  • other blocking arrangements would also be possible.
  • the tool could be exposed laterally at the end of the receptacle and could have a locking engagement to the side.
  • the actuating member is divided into a receiving part for the end section of the tool and the cam disk molded onto the receiving part. This results in a small space requirement and material consumption with a clear separation between a space required for the tool and a space available for the electrical clamping.
  • a further advantageous embodiment is characterized by a torsion spring which is arranged on the axis of the pivotable actuating element and acts on the actuating element in the return direction, or a spiral spring which engages in a dent on the circumference of the actuating element, preferably the cam, in the starting position of the actuating element.
  • the actuating member is thus held in its initial position even when a conductor end is clamped in and thus the spiral spring which clamps the conductor end cannot exert a restoring force on the actuating member. Irritation from a loose part is avoided.
  • the actuator cannot interfere with the wrong position when putting on the usual cover.
  • the housing has a swivel mount instead of one Actuator with a cam a counter bearing for the end of the tool as a fulcrum and an actuator in the form of one in the housing guided pressure piece, which by pressing the adjoining said end Section of the tool is displaceable by bending the spring; again the end of the tool is in the open position of the clamp can be pushed further up to a housing part, through which the tool against swinging back locked and thus held the actuator in the open position is.
  • the design of the clamp which is known per se, is particularly suitable for both variants provided that a conductor part with which said conductor end in the terminal housing is to be connected to the spiral spring is assembled in such a way that the spiral spring lies with one leg on the conductor part, with a bending leg turned away from him and then again towards the end of the former Thigh and beyond this in a third, slightly arcuate leg is bent, in which there is a rectangular cutout through which the Ladder part protrudes, the lower edge of the cutout towards the ladder part is pulled and presses the conductor end against the conductor part from below.
  • a conductor part 2 is held, which is further connected at its end 3 in an overall device, for example a circuit breaker.
  • the conductor part 2 is combined with an essentially three-leg spiral spring 4.
  • a leg 5 lies on the conductor part 2.
  • a bending leg 6 is bent by it.
  • a third, slightly arcuate leg 7 is bent towards the end of the former leg.
  • a rectangular cutout 8 is located in the arcuate leg. The cranked, other end 9 of the conductor part 2 projects through this.
  • An actuating member 12 serves to depress and release the spiral spring 4.
  • the actuating member 12 is pivotally mounted on an axis inserted through the housing 1, for example riveted to the outside of the housing walls. It consists of a receptacle part 14 with a receptacle 15 for the end section 16 of a screwdriver 17 and a cam disk 18 formed laterally on the receptacle part 14. The cam disk 18 lies over the spiral spring 4.
  • a leg spring 19 inserted into the receiving part 14 on the other side of the receiving part 14, the receiving part is pressed into its initial position shown in FIGS. 1 to 3.
  • the screwdriver is again pulled out of the pocket 24. If he wants, he can also completely from the recording 15 pulled out and the actuator (12) reset by hand become.
  • the spiral spring 4 does not return to its starting position, in which it could also hold the cam plate 18 and thus the actuating member 12 essentially in the starting position. Instead, the leg spring 19 fulfills this task.
  • FIG. 7 leaves provisions for the preparation of a
  • wall part 26 can be seen, namely a hollow connector 27 and two recesses 28 for mutual engagement with a recess or hollow socket of the wall part 26.
  • a spiral spring 29 is provided instead of the leg spring 19, which in the Use position of the clamp in a dent 35 on the, here designated 30, Cam grips.
  • the first-mentioned spiral spring is at 31, the actuator is denoted by 32 and the line end used is denoted by 33.
  • the cam 30 By swiveling of the actuator 32, the cam 30 also presses the spiral spring here low.
  • the dent 35 moves over the spiral spring 39.
  • the actuating element is realized by a pressure piece 36.
  • a quadruple clamp is shown essentially from one side and on the Visible side broken open.
  • Two introductions 37, two with, can be seen in the opposite arrangement the spiral spring 4 four identical spiral springs 38, and two corresponding to the socket 22 Nozzle 39.
  • Two conductor parts 40 have the function of the conductor part 2, but are designed differently.
  • the pressure pieces 36 are guided in the housing designated 41. They can be depressed by means of a screwdriver 42 and thus tension the spiral spring 38.
  • the screwdriver is inserted in the position as shown on the left in Fig. 9 for the left clamp. It is then pivoted, being supported on a counter bearing indicated at 43 and pressing on the pressure piece, as shown on the right in FIG. 9 for the right clamp.
  • This illustration also shows the next step: when the spiral spring 38 is depressed, the end of the screwdriver 42 finds a pocket into which the screwdriver is pushed further. It is then held against pivoting back by a pocket wall 45 and thus holds the clamp in the open position. To close the clamp, the screwdriver 42 is pulled out.
