Definitions

  • the invention relates to an electrical angle-shaped connector, in particular with an electrical contacts having insulating body, which is arranged in the use position in a first angle leg of this connector, said emanating from the insulating body and the electrical contacts line or lines through a second angle leg to a consumer or to a Current source, wherein the two abutting in the angular range end faces of this angle leg obliquely and substantially mitred and - in particular in the region of an outer meridian - at least in the use position articulated or releasably connected to each other and wherein also a the use position of the two angle leg defining holder is provided ,
  • Such an angular connector is off DE 200 03 976.8 U1 known and has proven itself.
  • flanges or flange pieces are provided on both angle legs, which can each be secured by a mutually enforcing screw together and on a housing wall or the like. This results in a determination of the two angle legs to each other, however, a greater effort is required for this mutual determination of the position of use when closing the two relatively pivotable angle leg.
  • screwing is time consuming, especially when multiple screws must be set.
  • the angular connector defined above is characterized in that at least one of the two angle legs extending over the greater part of its circumference, at least over a part of its course outwardly open recess or annular groove is provided, in which a suitable in it Federring can be inserted or latched that this spring ring is open or interrupted in its course and at the opening or interruption has two end portions, of which at least one in the use position relative to the recess or annular groove and protrudes from the angle leg and in the closed or use position of Connector detects the holder on the other angle leg, is connected to or engages.
  • the two end parts, which emanate from the interruption or opening of the ring, so both can be used to connect to the other angle leg, which improves the mutual connection.
  • the spring ring is open, so has an interrupted course, it can also be good for latching to him carrying angle leg bent something against its restoring force, then spring back in the use position and over more than half the circumference of this angle leg of this or in the recess or annular groove abut.
  • the spring ring over more than 180 ° along the circumference of a run in an arbitrary cross-sectional contour having angle leg and may include these detent, the two arranged on both sides of the interruption of the spring ring end portions in use position have a smaller distance from each other, as it corresponds to the largest cross section of the angle leg or the diameter of the spring ring and the two end portions can relative to the Spring ring course bent outwards and in particular be arranged in the plane spanned by the spring ring plane.
  • the spring ring may thus have approximately the shape of a "C", but the two free ends carry outwardly projecting end portions, which detect the second angle leg and the existing there bracket in the closed position of the connector.
  • the relative to the annular groove of an angle leg and relative to the spring ring in the direction of the other angle leg projecting end portions of the spring ring may have a distance from each other, in which a conical expansion body of the holder under expansion of at least these end portions or their distance can be pressed, at the other angle leg is arranged and under the conical spreader for the end portions has a distinction, wherein the conical spreader is about mushroom-shaped or has an approximately mushroom-shaped longitudinal section and engages in the use position with the spreader the spring ring end portions.

  • the spreader can enter into the space between the two end portions, when the two angle legs are folded to each other, and then due to its wedge shape or its conical training the press the two end portions against their spring force apart until the spreader moved through the gap between the two end portions and thereby the two angle legs are folded into their position of use. Thereafter, the end parts spring back by themselves in the approximate position and thus determine the position of use of the two angle legs.
  • the region of the holder located below the conical expansion body can have a dimension or width which corresponds approximately to the spacing of the two end parts of the spring ring or is slightly smaller or possibly slightly larger. If this dimension is equal to or smaller than the distance between the two end parts of the spring ring, they can practically spring back to their starting position. However, if the dimension or width of this portion of the holder is slightly larger than the distance between the two end portions in their relaxed position, they are in the closed position even with some spring pressure at this area of the holder.
