Definitions

  • the present invention relates to the clamping of an electrical conductor in a conductor clamping device, in particular a Drehklemmtem réelle for an electrical conductor.
  • a conductor is inserted into a receiving area, and a clamping screw is screwed against the conductor, thereby establishing an electrical and mechanical connection.
  • screw terminals can be found in DE 102 18 214 A1 .
  • the clamping force is determined in screw terminals by the torque that a user applies to a clamping screw of the screw, whereby it is not readily possible to achieve a predetermined and / or reproducible clamping force.
  • the screw terminal can not provide a vibration protection in all cases, since the clamping screw can be released during vibration. Further, once clamped by the clamping screw position, clamping can not adapt to changing conditions (eg, relaxation) such as caused by aging or thermal effects such as contraction or expansion.
  • a conductor having a spring member is clamped against a conductor receiving portion.
  • cage tension springs can be found in DE 198 17 925 A1 and EP 0 806 811 A2 .
  • the cage tension spring must be opened prior to insertion of the ladder and manually held in its open position, resulting in less effective handling and making automation more difficult.
  • many cage tension spring types have a small contact surface, resulting in a high contact resistance.
  • a conductor clamping device having a receiving area for receiving an electrical conductor, a clamping element for pressing the electrical conductor against the receiving area, a spring element and a rotatably arranged actuating element, wherein in a first position of the actuating element, the conductor clamping device for inserting an electrical conductor is kept open and is triggered by a rotational movement of the actuating element in a second position, a clamping of the conductor by the clamping element due to the spring tension of the spring element acting thereon.
  • the conductor clamping device In the first position of the actuating element, the conductor clamping device is kept open without external force, so that the electrical conductor can be inserted into the conductor clamping device. It is not necessary to keep the ladder clamping device open by a tool.
  • the second position of the actuating element In the second position of the actuating element is a Clamping triggered by the spring element, so that the electrical conductor is clamped against the receiving area with a predetermined and reproducible clamping force. The rotational movement of the actuating element does not perform clamping, but decouples the first and the second retaining element, so that the spring element can press the clamping element against the receiving area.
  • the clamping of the electrical conductor is effected by the spring force of the spring element, the clamping is largely insensitive to vibration and can adapt to changing conditions due to aging or thermal effects. It is also possible to arrange the actuating element stationary, for example with respect to a control cabinet, and to rotate the receiving area with respect to the actuating element. This solution is considered equivalent by those skilled in the art.
  • the spring element may be in a state of higher spring tension in the first position of the actuating element and in a state of lower spring tension in the second position of the actuating element.
  • the clamping element may be formed integrally with the actuating element.
  • the first retaining element can be formed integrally with the receiving area and the second retaining element can be formed integrally with the actuating element, whereby the manufacturing outlay can be reduced.
  • the receiving region can have a concave profile and the clamping element can have a convex profile, whereby a large-area contacting of the electrical conductor with a low contact resistance is achieved.
  • This embodiment is particularly suitable for a solid conductor.
  • the receiving region can have a convex profile and the clamping element can have a concave profile, whereby a large-area contacting of the electrical conductor with a low contact resistance is achieved.
  • This embodiment is particularly suitable for stranded conductors.
  • the receiving area and the clamping element may be substantially complementary, for. B. be formed geometrically complementary. As a result, a particularly stable clamping of the conductor can be achieved.
  • the first retaining element can be formed integrally with at least one region of the receiving region projecting in the direction of the clamping element and the second retaining element can be formed integrally with the clamping element, whereby the manufacturing outlay can be reduced even further, since the receiving region simultaneously absorbs the electric current Conductor, guiding the electrical conductor and serves as a first retaining element, which cooperates with the clamping element formed as a second retaining element such that the actuating element is held in the first position.
  • the spring element may be integrally formed with the receiving area.
  • the clamping element can be displaceable by the spring element along the rotational movement axis of the actuating element.
  • the actuating element and / or the second retaining element can also be movable along the rotational movement axis.
  • the angle of the rotational movement with which the actuating element is to be brought from the first to the second position may be about 90 ° or less.
  • the rotational movement can be reduced to about 45 ° or less. Due to the relatively small rotational movement, a high efficiency of the conductor clamping device is ensured and the connection process can be automated with simple means.

  • the second retaining element may be formed eccentrically in the actuating element, wherein the second retaining element in the first position of the actuating element determines the clamping element away from the receiving area, whereby the spring element is brought by simple means from a state of higher spring tension in a state of lower spring tension can be.
  • the first retaining element can be formed by a section of the spring element that is concave in the direction of the second retaining element, whereby the second retaining element is suitably guided with the first retaining element.
  • the spring element can be substantially U-shaped, the spring element can be fastened to a first leg facing away from the receiving area and the first retaining element can be formed on a second leg of the spring element facing the receiving area.
  • the U-shaped spring element allows a high spring force in low space requirements.
  • the first conductor clamping device can be configured such that a dead center of the second retaining element is located between the first position and the second position of the actuating element, so that the spring tension of the spring element holds the actuating element in the first position or the second position. This is achieved with particularly simple means that the actuating element is held in the first position, thereby ensuring that the conductor clamping device is open for insertion of the electrical conductor.
  • the clamping element may be formed integrally with the actuating element.
  • the clamping element may be formed integrally with the second retaining element of the actuating element, which leads to a reduction of the manufacturing outlay.
  • the clamping element can be formed integrally with the spring element. Since the spring element is elastic, thereby a large-area contacting of the electrical conductor can be achieved.
  • the clamping element can be formed integrally with a first spring element section directed towards the receiving region, which is located between a spring element fastening and the first retaining element.
  • the first spring element section may be designed to be convex in the direction of the receiving region, resulting in a large-area contacting. Because the first retaining element Farther away from the spring element fastening than the first spring element section, a lever effect arises, for example in the case of a leaf spring, which causes low forces or moments to occur on the actuating element at high clamping forces on the first spring element section.

  • the second spring element section may be designed to be convex in the direction of the receiving region, resulting in a large-area contacting. Since the second spring member portion is farther away from the spring member attachment than the actuation portion, such as a leaf spring, a leverage effect causes the clamping member to be set farther away to insert the electrical conductor.
  • the first conductor clamping device can be configured such that the first retaining element and the second spring element section are formed on the spring element of the first spring element section, which is located between the spring element mounting and the first retaining element, wherein the first retaining element between the second spring element section and the spring element attachment and the clamping element is formed integrally with the first spring element section and with the second spring element section. Consequently, the electrical conductor may optionally be clamped on the first spring element section or on the second spring element section or on both spring element sections, resulting in a particularly flexible conductor clamping device. This embodiment can also be used to clamp a plurality of conductors.

  • the angle of rotational movement with which the actuating element is to be brought from the first position to the second position may be about 180 ° or less.
  • the rotational movement can be reduced to about 90 ° or less. Due to the relatively small rotational movement a high efficiency of the conductor clamping device is ensured and the connection process can be automated with simple means.
  • the actuating element is formed by an external actuating tool, for example a screwdriver.
  • an external actuating tool for example a screwdriver.
  • the spring element could also be brought from the state of lower spring tension in the state of higher spring tension by inserting a, for example, wedge-shaped actuating tool or by moving the actuating tool between the actuating portion and the support portion, whereby the clamping element is set away from the receiving area.

  • the first spring element section may be designed to be convex in the direction of the receiving region, resulting in a large-area contacting. Since the first retaining element of the spring element attachment is farther away than the first spring element portion, arises, for example in a leaf spring, a lever effect that causes the actuator low forces or moments at high clamping forces on the first spring element section occur.
