Definitions

  • the invention relates to a jumper for electrical connection and / or Connecting terminals, in particular terminal blocks, for resilient engagement in openings in busbars and for electrically contacting Busbars of at least two connection and / or connection terminals, with a bridge rail, wherein the bridge rail is a rail and has a plurality of connectors connected to the bus bar and wherein each Plug at least two substantially parallel to each other Contact legs, of which at least one is resilient.
  • the invention also relates to an electrical connection and / or Connection terminals, in particular terminal blocks, with a housing, with at least one bus bar, with at least two connecting elements and with a detachable jumper.
  • Terminal blocks are predominantly screw terminals or spring-cage terminals used.
  • the clamping principle with tension spring clamps is similar the screwdriving technique. While at the screw terminal a tension sleeve by pressing the terminal screw the conductor against the current bar pulls, in the tension spring clamp this task of the tension spring accepted.
  • terminal blocks whose Conductor terminal elements have cutting blades, the insulation of the imported Cut the conductor and contact the soul of the conductor.
  • Electrical terminal blocks are usually connection terminals, so that they have at least two conductor connection elements, which via an electrical conductive busbar, the busbar, electrically interconnected are connected. Such terminal blocks are also used as feed-through terminals designated. In addition to this basic type of terminal blocks, there are In addition, a variety of different types of terminal block, the specially adapted to the particular application. As an example here double-deck, three-deck or four-deck terminals as well as three-wire or Four-wire terminals called, which then each a correspondingly larger number have on conductor connection elements. Double-decker, three-deck or Four-tier terminals, commonly referred to as floor terminals, have two, three or four on top of each other, in different levels, arranged busbars, each having two conductor connection elements connect electrically.
  • An initially described jumper or an initially described electrical connection and / or connection terminal is for example off DE 44 11 306 C1.
  • the well-known jumper is characterized from that they have two juxtaposed bridge rail sections has, in each case formed a contact leg per plug is, wherein the spring load of the plug parallel to the longitudinal direction of Rail track is done. It can be at the two bridge rail sections this can be simple stampings, so that the known jumper can be made very easily.
  • the present invention is based on the object, a jumper for electrical connection and / or connection terminals available which makes it possible to use different types of terminals, in particular such terminal blocks with different conductor connection elements, to connect with each other.
  • the busbars refers to the distance between the individual Busbars to the mounting rail at two side by side on a mounting rail latched terminal blocks.
  • the plug or the contact legs on different widths wherein the width of a Plug to the width of the busbar or to the width of the opening in the Bus bar is adapted.
  • the individual contact legs are a plug the same width, so that all contact legs of a Stekkers narrower than the contact legs of another connector.
  • the jumper according to the invention also two - or more - Terminal blocks to connect with each other, which are used to connect Ladders are provided with different conductor cross-sections. Shall on a terminal block conductor with a larger conductor cross-section connected As a rule, this clamp has - because of the over the dikkeren Conductor flowing higher currents - even a busbars with a larger width and thus wider openings.
  • the bridge rail is formed so that the spring forces of the plug or the contact leg when plugged into the openings of the busbar and when contacting the busbar parallel to the longitudinal direction of the rail bar are directed.
  • the principle of contacting a busbar thus corresponds essentially to the contacting principle of the DE 44 11 306 C1 known jumper.
  • the inventive But jumper advantageously three substantially parallel to each other arranged contact legs, of which at least the middle contact leg is resilient. Is only the middle contact leg resiliently formed - and the two outer contact legs are relatively stiff - -, so a twisting of the jumper is perpendicular to Longitudinal direction of the rail and thus perpendicular to the longitudinal direction of Jumper prevents, thereby plugging the jumper into a Variety of juxtaposed terminal blocks is facilitated.
  • Jumper is formed in at least one contact leg a longitudinal slot.
  • the middle contact leg is at least the middle contact leg with the Provided longitudinal slot. Due to the formation of the longitudinal slot is the Restoring force due to the deflection of the contact leg during insertion reduced in the opening of the busbar, resulting in particular reduces the insertion force in the upper contact area, so that the plug-in or push-through force through the opening of an upper busbar hardly from the insertion force into an opening in a lower busbar different.
  • Jumper which will be briefly mentioned here, have the contact legs below the lower contact area on at least one narrow side a ramp on. As a result, the insertion of the contact legs further facilitated in an opening of a lower busbar.
  • the lower contact area can be upwardly through a laterally projecting offset are limited so that when a corresponding Sizing the opening a defined insertion of the jumper in the terminal block is guaranteed.
  • connection and / or connection terminals are arranged directly next to each other.
  • connection and / or connection terminals are arranged directly next to each other.
  • the distances formed between the individual plug accordingly which is preferable can be realized by that to the terminal blocks, which are not to be electrically connected to each other, corresponding Plug are removed, including in the transition region between the rail and the individual plugs corresponding breaking points provided are.
  • Each busbar 3, 30 is included arranged in a housing of the electrical terminal and serves for electrically conductive connection of two terminal elements of the terminal block.
  • the busbar 3 is one that typically is used in terminal blocks with spring-loaded terminals, while the busbar 30 is such a busbar, which is used in terminal blocks with screw terminals.
  • the jumper 1 has a comb-like bridge rail, the an upper rail 5 ( Figure 7) and a plurality of the rail 5 connected plugs 6 has.
  • the illustrated embodiments only two plugs 6 are shown per bridge rail 4, so that with the jumpers 1 shown only two busbars 3, 30 of two terminal blocks can be electrically connected. It Of course, far more than two connectors provided could be.
  • each plug 6 two separate contact legs 7, 8 on.
  • points at the Embodiments according to FIGS. 4 to 6 each plug 6 three contact legs 7, 8, 9 on. Assign the plug 6 of the jumpers 1 only two contact legs 7, 8, so are preferably both contact legs 7, 8 resilient educated.
  • the plugs 6 have three contact legs 7, 8, 9 on, then preferably only the central contact leg 9 is resilient formed while the two outer contact legs 7, 8 relatively stiff are formed.
  • Allen plugs 6 and all jumper 1 is common that they are two superimposed arranged contact areas 10, 11, so that the possibility consists of two arranged on different levels I, II busbars 3, 30 of two juxtaposed terminal blocks electrically together connect to.
  • plugging in the plug 6 or the contact legs 7, 8, 9 in the openings 2 of the busbars 3, 30 contact the Plug 6 in the longitudinal direction L of the rail strip 5.
  • the longitudinal direction runs L of the rail strip 5 and the jumper 1 approximately perpendicular to Longitudinal direction of the busbars 3, 30.
  • FIGS. 1 to 3 differ by the Use of each identical jumper 1 together with different Busbars 3, 30, d. H. by using at different Terminal blocks.
  • FIG. 1 is the - in the drawing plane - front plug 6 in an opening 2 of a busbar 3 of a terminal with spring loaded terminals inserted while the - in the drawing plane - rear plug 6 in an opening 2 of a busbar 30 a terminal with screw terminals is inserted.
  • the Busbar 3 is located on a lower level I, while the busbar 30 is located on an upper level II.
  • the Conductor rail 3 in the lower contact region 10 of a plug 6 of the jumper 1 contacted while the bus bar 30 in the upper contact area 11 of the second connector 6 of the jumper 1 is contacted.
  • the jumper 1 shown in Figs. 1 to 3 is the - in the plane of the drawing - Front plug 6 slightly narrower than the rear plug 6, since in the There, the embodiments shown in each case the front busbar 3, 30th also narrower than the rear busbar 30, 3.
  • the width of the Stekker 6 is always on the width of the opening 2 in the busbar 3, 30th Voted. Because the different terminal blocks only a limited number have at different busbar widths, are only a total few jumpers 1 with different combinations of connector widths required to almost all types of different terminal blocks to connect with each other.
  • FIGS. 3 to 5 show exemplary embodiments in which the busbars 3, 30 both with the plugs 6 in the lower contact area 10th or both contact the plugs 6 in the upper contact area 11. All in all is thus characterized in that each plug 6 two superimposed Contact areas 10, 11 has created the possibility of different Busbars 3, 30 and thus different terminal types through the jumper 1 to connect electrically.
  • a Longitudinal slot 12 has.
  • the longitudinal section 12 extends from a Range slightly above the lower contact area 10 to a range slightly above the upper contact area 11. Due to the training of the slot 12 in the contact leg 9 is the restoring force of the contact leg 9 slightly reduced, thereby increasing the force required to push through of the plug 6 through the opening 2 of a busbar 30 in the upper Level II is reduced. With a corresponding dimensioning of the Longitudinal slot 12 can be achieved by a insertion force in the is substantially constant, regardless of whether a plug 6 in an opening 2 of a busbar 3 in the lower level I or in an opening 2 of a Busbar 30 is inserted in the upper level II.
  • the contact legs 7, 8, 9 are formed such that their width B larger as her thickness is D.
  • a relatively narrow plug-in bridge 1 are realized, on the other hand, sufficiently large spring forces at a load of the contact legs 7, 8, 9 in the longitudinal direction L of Rail bar 5, so that a sufficient contact force is guaranteed.
