Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a connection for an electrical device, in particular a lamp.
  • the device connection has for this purpose in the housing of the electrical device to a terminal.
  • a connector can be connected to this terminal.
  • This connector has one or more male or female contacts for external connection to a power cord. With the power cord, the electrical device is then connected to the existing power grid.
  • contact elements are further formed on the connector, which are inserted into contact receptacles on the terminal.
  • the contact elements on the connector are complementary to the contact receptacles on the terminal formed. In each case, a contact element is in turn conductively in contact with one of the plug contacts or socket contacts.
  • the plug contacts or socket contacts are conductively connected by means of the contact elements in the final assembled state with the contact receptacles on the terminal.
  • conductively connected terminal points are formed with the contact receptacles, to which the internal wiring of the electrical device is connected.
  • the contact elements are usually plugged into the contact receptacles.
  • the connector can be removed from the terminal, while the plug contacts or socket contacts are still connected to the power cord. This has the consequence that the contact elements are then still fully under tension. If the operator touches the live contact elements, this can result in damage to health, in the worst case, death.
  • the invention has the object, a connection for an electrical device with a connector and a terminal in such a way that the contact elements are always protected against contact.
  • This object is achieved by the feature combination claimed in claim 1 in an inventive manner.
  • the dependent claims contain partially expedient and partially inventive for themselves developments of the invention.
  • the contact elements are fixed to a contact carrier to ensure contact protection.
  • This contact carrier is slidably mounted on the housing of the connector.
  • the displaceability of the contact carrier in the longitudinal direction is at least so far limited by a catch stop that the contact elements do not protrude from the housing of the connector, as long as the connector is not connected to the terminal.
  • the locking stop is in a blocking position, which prevents displacement of the contact carrier at least so far that the contact elements from the connector housing can not stand out.
  • a counter-stop is formed in the area of the terminal.
  • This counter-stop cooperates with the locking stop in such a way that the counter-stop moves the locking stop into its open position as soon as the plug-in connector has reached its final assembly position with respect to the connecting terminal.
  • the contact carrier can be moved linearly, with the result that the contact elements are then inserted into the contact receptacle as intended.
  • the advantage of the invention is that the connector can be disconnected from the terminal even under tension, without any risk that the operator injured or touching the contact elements causes death.
  • the manner of a carriage mounted on the housing of the connector contact carrier is a U-shaped bracket.
  • This embodiment has the advantage that the U-legs take on a dual function. While abut the front sides of the U-legs in the blocking position on the catch stop, so form the locking part elements of the contact carrier, the side surfaces of the U-legs are effective as a guide parts. Namely, a corresponding guide track is formed in the connector housing, so that the U-legs form a track guide with this guide track with the side surfaces of the U-leg as guide surfaces. With the aid of this web guide, the contact carrier is securely guided on the connector housing.
  • the U-cross yoke of the bracket serves as a carrier element for one or more contact elements.
  • the catch block is designed in a development as an L-shaped tongue.
  • the L-shaped tongue has a resilient vertical L-leg, which serves as a bearing leg for the catch stop.
  • the further horizontal L-leg then forms a locking leg, which forms the catch stop in the strict sense.
  • This locking leg engages under the end faces of the U-legs of the contact carrier in the blocking position.
  • designed as a U-shaped bracket contact carrier is particularly well secured in its rest position.
  • the device housing is broken by a mounting hole.
  • the mounting opening clears a passage to the contact receptacles on the connection terminal.
  • the mounting hole is designed so that the connector not only vertically into the mounting hole can be introduced, but also horizontally in this between an insertion position and a final assembly position can be moved back and forth. It is also possible to supplement the mounting opening by further guide openings. With corresponding guide parts on the connector, these guide openings then form a guide slot for the connector when inserted into its insertion position and during horizontal displacement into its final assembly position.
  • This embodiment significantly increases the operating safety of the terminal.
  • the catch block releases the contact carrier. In this way it is ensured that the connector is securely fixed in any case on the terminal or on the housing above the terminal before the contact elements can be moved out of the connector housing out in their contacting position.
  • the operating safety of this embodiment can be further increased by the fact that at the end of the horizontal displacement of the connector a loud clicking sound of one or more mechanical fasteners can be heard.
  • the operator then also has an acoustic feedback that the connector has reached its final assembly position in which the extension of the contact elements from the connector housing using the contact carrier is possible without danger to the operator.
  • By horizontally displacing the connector after insertion in the vertical direction is also prevented that the connector by improper attachment simply falls off the housing again when moved out of the connector housing contact elements.
  • Claim 6 relates to the particularly advantageous interaction of locking stop and counter stop.
  • the counter-stop is rigid, while the locking stop is movable, in particular designed resiliently, the locking stopper is displaced as it moves when moving the connector in the horizontal direction of the counter-attack from its position. The counter stop thus leveres the catch from its locked position into its open position.
  • the horizontal locking leg then serves as a large contact surface on the counter-stop.
  • the resilient bearing leg bends the locking stop when unlocking by the counter-stop so far that the front sides of the U-legs of the contact carrier are released again, so that the contact carrier can be moved into its final assembly position in which engage the contact elements in the contact receptacles.
  • the contact elements it is advantageous to design the contact elements as a flat plug. Particularly advantageous because the connection further improving safety, the design of the terminal contacts according to claim 9.
  • contact clips are formed on the contact elements, which engage over the plug contacts or socket contacts only in the final assembly position of the contact carrier.
  • the blocking stop holds the contact carrier open in its blocking position, the electrical connection between the plug contacts or socket contacts on the one hand and the contact elements on the other hand is additionally interrupted, which further increases the contact reliability of the device.
  • the terminal 1 has nips 2 for connecting the internal wiring of the electrical apparatus not shown in the drawings. These clamping points can be activated by means of a button 3. On the mounted in the mounted position of the terminal 1 of the housing wall 4 of the electrical device terminal top 5, the openings of the contact receptacles 6 and two counter-stops 7 can be seen.
  • the counterstops 7 are molded in the embodiment of Befest Trentsdomen 8.
  • the connectors 9 take in their connector housing 10, the plug contacts 11 and with the plug contacts respectively connected socket contacts 12. Further formed on the plug housing 10 is a guide projection 13.
  • each guide track 14 a U-leg 15 of a designed as a U-shaped bracket contact carrier 16 in the vertical direction 17 is arranged longitudinally displaceably on the plug housing 11 is formed.
  • a U-leg 15 of a designed as a U-shaped bracket contact carrier 16 in the vertical direction 17 is arranged longitudinally displaceably on the plug housing 11 is formed.
  • At the connector housing 10 facing the inside of the U-leg 15 connecting U-transverse yoke 18 of the contact carrier 16 retaining ribs for the contact elements 19 are molded.
  • the contact elements 19 further carry contact clips 20, which in the final assembly position engage over the plug contacts 11 or the socket contacts 12 in a contacting manner.
  • the locking stop 21 is formed on the housing 10 of the connector 9. At this locking stop 21 are the end faces of the U-legs 15 in the exemplary embodiment in the blocking position of the locking stop 21.
  • connection terminal 1 is fixed to the housing wall 4 partially shown in FIG.
  • the housing wall 4 is pierced by a mounting opening 22.
  • the mounting opening 22 is in this case configured so that it releases the passage in the vertical direction 17 through the housing wall 4 on the contact receptacles 6 in the vertical direction 17.
  • Formed in the housing wall 4 is still a guide slot 23.
  • this guide slot 23 emerges the assembly of the connector 9 of the guide projection 13 in the vertical direction 17 and passes through the connector 9 during assembly in the horizontal direction 24.
  • the connector 9 is placed from above on the housing wall 4 in the vertical direction 17. Since the connector 9 has not yet reached its final assembly position, the catch stop 21 rests against the end face of the U-leg 15 of the contact carrier 16 shown in FIG.
  • the locking stop 21 is designed in this case L-shaped.
  • the vertical L-leg form a bearing leg 25, while the horizontal L-leg of the locking stop 21 forms the actual locking leg 26.
  • the locking leg 26 engages below - as shown in Fig. 5 - the end face of the slotted by a vertical slot 27 U-leg 15 of the contact carrier sixteenth
  • the connector 9 After placing the connector 9 on the housing wall 4 and the terminal 1, the connector 9 is in its insertion position shown in Fig. 6.
  • the locking stop 21 more precisely the locking leg 26 on the one hand and the counter-stop 7, which passes through the mounting opening 22 in the vertical direction 17, horizontally next to each other and overlap each other in the horizontal direction 24th
  • the contact clamps 20 overlap the respectively assigned socket contacts 12 or plug contacts 11.
  • the socket contacts 12 or plug contacts 11 are then conductively connected via the contact elements 19 to the contacts of the connection terminal 1.
  • the contact elements 19 must first be pulled out of the contact receptacles 6 in the vertical direction 17.
  • the contact carrier 16 must be moved back to its initial position shown in Fig. 8.
  • mechanical locking of the connector 10 to the housing wall 4 must be solved.
  • the connector 9 can be moved again in the horizontal direction to the right in its insertion position. Due to the resilience of the bearing leg 25 of the locking leg 26 then pivots back into its blocking position shown in Fig. 5 and Fig. 7, so that the contact elements 19 completely and thus touch protection again einine completely in the connector housing 10.
