Definitions

  • the invention relates to a pole terminal for the production of electrical Cable connections, with a metallic conductor body, the one of Enclosed housing of an electrical device is fixed to the insulating body which a clamping nut can be screwed, which is to be connected electrical conductor to make an electrical contact against the Clamp the ladder body.
  • pole terminals are widely used in consumer electronics used to connect wires and especially speakers to the amplifiers to dock. They are characterized by having a light manual on and off Enable uncoupling. Your line and contact cross sections should be designed according to the conductivity of the material so that short Power pulses, such as a speaker signal, not unnecessary be steamed.
  • pole terminals of the conductor body is usually made as a rotating part a material produced, on the one hand for a machining suitable and electrically conductive on the other hand.
  • the disadvantage is that one for the Machining suitable material has a lower conductivity as, for example, the conductive material of the conductor to be connected.
  • The requires larger cable and contact cross sections to the quality-reducing Damping of power pulses to prevent.
  • High conductivity materials such as copper and silver, conductive and conductive materials Contact cross-sections analogous to the conductor to be connected.
  • they are suitable not for machining. They do not form chips but lubricate.
  • a further disadvantage is that the conductor body of the known pole terminals as Turned parts are complex and elaborately designed for production. To record The external conductor to be connected must be drilled. thread are required to clamp components for clamping the external conductors, to Fixing the pole terminal on the housing or for receiving the insulating body for the fuse against external contacts to screw.
  • a pole terminal of known type is in Document US-A-2,713,670.
  • the pole terminal of the aforementioned Further develop type to the effect that the conductor body made of a material can be made, which has a higher electrical conductivity, for example as that of copper or silver.
  • the guide body is less be complex, which reduces the manufacturing cost.
  • a simple one Construction also proves to be user-friendly.
  • the invention proposes a pole terminal according to claim 1 in front.
  • the conductor body is designed to that of metallic flat material with highest conductivity, for example Copper or silver, can be punched.
  • metallic flat material with highest conductivity for example Copper or silver
  • the conductor body receives the Shape to fulfill the required functions.
  • the conductor body receives a bending technology in the transverse direction to the longitudinal axis Angled contact surface, which then again parallel to the longitudinal axis is aligned.
  • contacts are in both the longitudinal and transverse directions made to the external conductor.
  • the mechanical stability required for pole terminals is maintained by the conductor body according to the invention by the surrounding insulating body.
  • Ladder body and Insulating bodies are connected to form a composite body.
  • To form a positive, firm connection between the conductor body and the insulating body ensure the conductor body has recesses into which the insulating body intervenes.
  • a saddle-like radial formation, which encloses the insulating body, additionally protects against torques from rotational movements between conductor and Insulator.
  • the insulating body is applied by spray technique on the conductor body.
  • the contact surfaces of the conductor body remain free. This includes the tubular opening with the annular contact surface for receiving the Contact pin of a banana plug, which runs transversely to the longitudinal axis Contact surface for receiving an external electrical conductor and as Lötfahne configured contact outside the insulator.
  • the insulating body for receiving the external electrical Ladder an additional opening.
  • the clamping nut is made of insulating material.
  • the clamping nut cap can be made of metallic material.
  • Between the Clamping nut and the surrounding clamping nut cap is a pressure ring over a circumferential on the outer circumference of the clamping nut projection and a Ring shoulder rotatably mounted in the pressure ring.
  • the pressure ring is from the Clamping nut moves axially. This can be introduced into the ladder body external conductor against a cap on the housing made of insulating Material to be clamped.
  • this insulating cap is a metallic ring with only optical function inserted.
  • the pole terminal shown consists essentially of a metallic Conductor body 1, with a surrounding insulating body 2 a composite body 1, 2 forms.
  • annular Contact surface 3 For the connection of a banana plug, not shown, the conductor body 1 parallel to its longitudinal axis a bending technology produced annular Contact surface 3. This is as a bridge with adjoining across the Longitudinal punched rings formed.
  • the further continued ladder body 1 has a bending technology produced and both parallel and transverse to the longitudinal axis extending contact surface 4 for an external electrical conductor, not shown. Access to the Contact surface 4 for the external conductor allows an opening 5 in the insulating body 2.
  • the contact surface 4 is extended transversely to the longitudinal axis and has a slot-like Recesses 6, in which the insulating body 2 with flattened legs. 7 intervenes.
  • Following the contact surface of the conductor body 1 forms a Saddle 8, by first parallel and then in the direction Lijnsache the Pole terminal is bent. This saddle 8 is anchored in the insulator 2 and secures against torques from radial rotational movements between conductor and Insulating body 1, 2.
  • the conductor body 1 is for example for introduction into the housing 9 of a not shown device of consumer electronics extended. He ends in a trained as Lötfahne, not surrounded by the insulating body 2 Element 10 for connecting a line, not shown.
  • the insulating body 2 is provided on the housing side with a thread 11 and is within the housing 9 by means of a nut 12 made of insulating material via a fan disc 13 against an insulating washer 14 and the housing. 9 pressed.
  • a double-stage disc 15 of the composite body 1 the second insulated from the outside relative to the housing 9 and fixed for the screw connection.
  • a gradation 16 of the rotating on the insulating body 2 engages Projection 16, 17 form-fitting in the outer stage 18 of the double-stage disc 15, while another gradation 17 on the double-stage disc 15th is applied.
  • a cap 19 made of insulating, transparent material limits the Distance between the housing 9 and the contact surface 4 for the across the Longitudinal axis of the composite body 1, 2 to be supplied external conductor. She attacks with an inner circumferential projection 20 in an outside of the insulator second circumferential groove 21 a. For optical reasons is in the cap 19 a Metal ring 22 inserted.
  • the side facing away from the housing edge 23 of the cap 19 also serves as Counterpart for a pressure ring 24 for clamping the external conductor.
  • a pressure ring 24 for clamping the external conductor.
  • the Pressure ring 24 has an inner circumferential groove 25. In this attacks the outside on a clamping nut 26 circumferential projection 27 a. This is the result Thrust ring 24 rotatably mounted and the clamping nut 26 axially and yet independently of their rotational movements.
  • the clamping nut 26 is connected to the insulating body 2 via a SAge leopardgewinde 28th externally screwed to the insulating body 2 with the same.
  • a SAge leopardgewinde 28th externally screwed to the insulating body 2 with the same.
  • the axial movements of the nut 26 are finite and so on defines that only the distance to the introduction of the external conductor in the Opening 5 of the insulating body 2 is released and the screwed Do not unscrew clamping nut 26 again.
  • clamping nut cap 31 On the clamping nut 26 made of insulating material is a clamping nut cap 31 made of metallic material.
  • the clamping nut 26 has on her outer circumference and the clamping nut cap 31 at its inner periphery Surface formations 32, 33, whereby the adjusting moments of the clamping nut cap 31 are positively transmitted to the clamping nut 26.
  • locknut 26 and clamping nut cap 31 have end openings 34, 35 for Introduction of the contact pin of a banana plug, not shown in the Composite body 1, 2 on.
