Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a cable clamp device for blocking an electric cable relative to a support outside the device.
  • the support outside the device is in particular formed by an electrical junction block which is intended to allow the electrical connection of the end of an electrically conductive cable by the so-called screwed / screwed technique.
  • the present invention aims to overcome the aforementioned drawbacks by providing a cable clamp device in which the cable is better held in position, without increasing the number of component parts of the device.
  • the subject of the present invention is a device according to claim 1.
  • the contact face of the conductive abutment is intended to bear against the conductor cable several points, and not only in one as in the state of the art.
  • the device also makes it possible to firmly tighten cables of reduced diameter.
  • the projection of the openings on a plane perpendicular to the branches of the stirrup and in a direction substantially parallel to the branches is of substantially rectangular shape, whose length is less than the width of the band of the stirrup.
  • the electrically conductive stop is constituted by a connecting strip of an electrical junction block.
  • the outer support is formed by a body of insulating material constituting the electrical terminal block.
  • the present invention further relates to an electrical terminal block comprising a body of insulating material in which are formed electrical connection openings, at least one cable clamp device according to any one of the aforementioned features being implanted in at least one of the electrical connection openings.
  • the cable clamp device 1 shown, according to a first embodiment of the invention, figure 1 is adapted to lock in position an electrical cable to establish an electrical connection with another conductive element.
  • This device is in particular intended to be implanted in an electrical terminal block whose insulating body houses electrical connection elements such as a link bar.
  • This bar has for example function to put the same potential several electrically conductive elements.
  • Such a terminal block is well known in the state of the art and is not here described in detail, nor represented.
  • the cable clamping device 1 comprises, in a manner known per se, a stirrup 2 in which an electrically conducting abutment 10 is housed.
  • This abutment 10 takes for example the shape of a section of the aforementioned connecting bar.
  • the stirrup 2 is formed of two branches 3 and 4 which extend substantially parallel to each other in a direction XX, as well as a curved bottom 5 which connects the two branches 3, 4. opposite the bottom 5, these two branches 3 and 4 respectively have free ends 5 and 6.
  • the stirrup 2 has a general shape of U. It is shaped in a strip of flat material whose width is predetermined. The branches 3 and 4 are longer than the width of the stirrup 2.
  • the electrically conductive stop 10 is located between the two branches 3 and 4 of the yoke.
  • This stop 10 is of generally parallelepipedal shape and has a first face 11 facing the free ends 5 and 6 of the branches 3, 4, and a second opposite face 12 facing the curved bottom 5 of the stirrup 2.
  • the second face 12 is an electrical contact face with the conductive cable 8 to establish an electrical connection with this cable when the stop is pressed against it, in the bottom 5 of the caliper.
  • the cable tie device 1 comprises, in the usual manner, drive means (not shown) which make it possible to obtain the relative movement of the stirrup 2 with respect to the stop 10 for, or to bring the bottom 5 in the direction of the stop, and thus tighten the cable in the bottom, or on the contrary spread the bottom 5 of the abutment 10, that is to say cause the bringing the free ends 5, 6 of the branches 3, 4 closer to the stop 10, and thus loosening the cable 8.
  • These drive means are, for example, nut means which, by screwing the nut, cause the stirrup 2 to move in the direction of tightening the cable.
  • the caliper reciprocates in translation in the direction parallel to the X-X axis, perpendicular to the plane defined by the first face 11 of the abutment 10.
  • the contact face 12 of the abutment 10 is of concave shape whose concavity is turned towards the bottom 5 of the stirrup 2.
  • the cable 8 is brought into contact with this face 12 at several points, which ensures a better maintenance of this cable.
  • the contact face 12 takes the form of a chute having a central core 15 which is substantially flat and parallel to the first face 11, as well as two inclined faces 17 and 18 which extend from this core. diverging towards the bottom 5 of the stirrup.
  • the cable 8 can thus during clamping, come into abutment with one or both inclined faces and / or with the central core according to the diameter of this cable.
  • the inclined faces 17 and 18 are of width less than the width of the stirrup 2.
  • the cable 8 represented at figure 1 is the cable of larger diameter that can clamp the device 1 since the ends of the inclined faces 17 and 18 are in abutment against the bottom 5 of the yoke 2.
  • the larger diameter cable that can be immobilized in the caliper is one which has a diameter close to the value of the mutual spacing of the two branches 3 and 4 of this caliper (such as the cable 24 shown in FIG. figure 2 ).
  • the cable clamp device 20 according to a second embodiment shown in FIGS. Figures 2 to 4 is used.
  • the cable clamp device 20 differs from the device 1 in that two openings 21 and 22 are formed in the bottom 5 of the stirrup 2 being respectively located vertically above the inclined faces 17 and 18 of the contact face 12 the stop 10.
  • the dimensions of the openings 21 and 22 are adapted so that the inclined faces 17 and 18 penetrate at least partially into these openings when the bottom 5 is brought closer to the stop 10 (FIG. figure 4 ).
  • the projection of the openings 21 and 22 on a plane perpendicular to the branches 3, 4 (or parallel to the first face 11 of the abutment), and in a direction substantially parallel to the axis XX, is of substantially rectangular shape.
  • the length of this rectangle is less than the width of the stirrup 2, as is more particularly visible in the figure 3 .
  • a cable 26 of reduced diameter is blocked in the bottom 5 of the caliper ( figure 4 ) and the ends of the inclined faces 17 and 18 pass through the openings 21 and 22 to project outside the stirrup 2.
  • stirrup figure 1 in which the ends of the inclined faces are adjacent to the bottom of this stirrup.
