Definitions

  • the invention relates to a terminal block according to the preamble of claim 1.
  • each contact actuators are movable, in particular slidably guided, with which the actual contacts or metal parts of the connecting devices and switches off and the ladder can be moved in and out of the contacts.
  • an actuating tool in particular a screwdriver
  • the attachment of an actuating tool takes place on opposite sides of the contact actuation pieces in order to push the conductor out of the IDC contact during the switching process and out of it during the disconnection.
  • the direction of movement of the screwdriver when loading and unloading is thus offset by 180 ° to each other.
  • This type of actuation according to the prior art has proven itself very well, in particular, since very high loading and disengaging forces are absorbed.
  • the DE 30 34 570 A1 discloses an electrical conductor connection terminal having a terminal for conductors with an actuator provided with lug contours.
  • the invention has the object to create a space-optimized terminal block, which is constructed cost-effective and space-optimized while still being easy to handle against this background.
  • the wiring is done in a single operation. To release a conductor or to switch it off, one or more, e.g. three lever movements required. The release is thus somewhat more complicated than the wiring. This is offset by the extremely compact design and the high reliability of the terminal block, which allows a particularly secure loading and Endschalt.
  • the actuating element has a blind hole-like Porterein technological Republicöffhung with an inner conductor stop, which is particularly compact construction aligned at an acute angle to the operating direction or direction of movement of the actuating element.
  • this acute angle is 20 to 70 °, in particular 30 to 60 °.
  • the conductor insertion opening merges into the outer surface of the actuating element in a channel-like or groove-like conductor receiving area.
  • the conductor lays against the intermediate wall to the adjacent row of terminal chambers and then into the conductor receiving area.
  • the groove or groove-like conductor receiving area extends parallel to the actuating direction of the actuating element and the conductor is pressed after its contacting in the conductor receiving area and protrudes outwardly from the open side of the connecting chamber.
  • the actuator has a lug which engages a slot in one of the walls defining the terminal chambers, the lug and the slot having corresponding latching contours and wherein the lug is latchable in the slot in at least one or more positions.
  • the disconnected and the switched position are easily recognizable or even noticeable and the conductor extension resistance is increased.
  • Fig. 1 to 4 show a first terminal block 1 with a housing 2 made of insulating material, which has two rows 3, 4 of unilaterally open connection chambers 5.
  • connection chambers 5 have a kind of rectangular shape in their plan view from their open side.
  • the adjacent connection chambers 5 of each row 3, 4 are separated from each other on the longer sides of the rectangles by intermediate walls 6.
  • the shorter inner walls 7 of the connection chambers separate the two connection rows 3, 4 from one another in the manner of a center wall.
  • the connection chambers 5 are additionally delimited by outer walls 8, 9 which each have a slot 10 extending in the direction of actuation x (which will be explained in more detail below) in the area of each connection chamber 5 is provided in the upper and lower region with a constriction-like constriction 11.
  • connection device 12 for connection of a conductor 13 with one or more conductor wire (s) and a surrounding this insulation is arranged.
  • the connecting devices 12 here each have an insulation-penetrating contact, in particular an (IDC) cutting contact 14, with two completely or substantially lying in a plane or slightly angled contact knives 15, at their free ends an insertion mouth is formed with cutting edges and between which there is a contacting gap.
  • IDC insulation-penetrating contact
  • a U-shaped over-spring 13 serves to press the contact blades 15 on each other to produce a sufficient contact force.
  • This U-shaped over-spring 13 is here in the manner of the generic state of the art DE 20 2004 013 363 U1 oriented perpendicular to the contact blades 15 so that their base leg is penetrated by the contact blades 15 in the area facing away from the insertion of the IDC contact area.
  • female contacts 17 are integrally connected or attached, which are located in second connection chambers 18 of the housing 2 and, for example, for attachment to a row of pins and for contacting the row of pins (not here shown) of an electrical device - eg a plug or other device - used.
  • the contacts 14 and 17 are produced from a profiled milled band.
  • a movable in the housing in particular displaceably guided actuator 19, which may be formed in one or more pieces and preferably consists of an insulating plastic.
  • the actuators 19 are in the non-contacted state, in which a conductor 26 is inserted into the actuator 19, in each case from the open ends of the connection chambers 5 to the outside.
  • a blind hole-like conductor insertion opening 20 (FIG. Fig. 2b ), which is aligned at an angle of 90 ° or less, here at an acute angle, preferably at an angle of 30 to 60 °, to the actuating direction or movement direction X of the actuating element 19.
  • the conductor insertion opening 20 merges with the outer surface of the actuating element into a groove-like or ladder-type conductor receiving region 25 which is here formed on the side of the actuating element 19 lying to the middle wall 7 and which extends into the region of the upper corner of the actuating element 19.
  • a conductor 26 is inserted into the conductor insertion opening 20 as in Fig. 2 can be seen, the conductor 26 is aligned at an acute angle at an acute angle to the direction of movement X of the contact actuating piece.
  • the conductor 26 lies in front of the insertion of the cutting contact 14th
  • the actuator 19- preferably with a tool such as a screwdriver - in the connection chamber 5 inward or in the representation of Fig. 1 moved down.
  • the separating contact 14 penetrates the conductor insulation and realizes a conductive contact with the conductor or cores ( Fig. 3 to 4 ).
  • the conductor 26 is bent in its region in which it protrudes outward from the contact actuating piece, from the chamber wall adjacent to the conductor receiving region 25, in this case the middle wall 7, next to the cutting contact 14. Fig. 4 ), so that it lies in its outer (relative to the blind hole-like end of the conductor receiving opening 19 and adjoining the cutting contact 14 area) parallel to the actuating direction in the channel.
  • This arrangement is in Fig. 4 to recognize.
  • the end of the conductor is at an acute angle to the direction of movement of the actuating element 19. In this acute-angled orientation and the contacting of the conductor takes place.
  • the conductor 26 is then parallel to the actuating direction or sliding direction of the actuating element 19th
  • the switch-off is carried out from the same direction, ie from the open side of the Anschlußkammem ago.
  • the screwdriver is inserted laterally of the lug contour 24 laterally into a free slot-like region 28 between adjacent actuating elements 5 or between the actuating elements 5 and the intermediate walls 6.
  • the actuating element 19 is in turn courage here at least one or more - preferably offset in the sliding direction X, parallel to each other - approach contour (s) 27 provided for attachment of the screwdriver, in which the free end of the screwdriver can be introduced.
  • the actuating element 19 is levered out of the switched position, wherein the intermediate walls 6 between the connection chambers 5 or the adjacent actuating elements 19 themselves - if the intermediate walls are not formed continuously - are used as an abutment for the screwdriver. If several approach contours 27 are present, the actuating element 19 can be released with several lever movements.
  • the switching-off of the cutting contact 14 is not quite as easy as the wiring. Since, however, only in rare cases, for example in the case of faulty circuits, it is generally necessary to disconnect the connected contacts again, this additional expenditure is justifiable. It is more than compensated by the extremely compact design.
  • this terminal block is particularly advantageous where a compact design using a insulation piercing contact with a screwdriver actuated actuator 19 is desired
  • the actuator 19 when wiring against a stop 29 in the insulating material runs.
  • the metal module is also securely supported in the insulating housing.
  • FIG. 1 Two-row arrangements are realized eg with 2 * 20 connection chambers.
  • the wiring and disconnection, as well as the assembly and the ladder extension, are from a single direction.
  • Fig. 5 in contrast, is particularly suitable for embodiments in which only a single row of connection chambers (eg 20) to be realized.
  • connection chambers eg 20
  • connection chambers eg 20
  • a conductor receiving area on the outside of the actuating element 19 is not required.
  • the wiring is again by depressing the actuator, which can also be done by hand.
  • the de-connection is analogous to the embodiment of Fig. 1 with the screwdriver.
  • the wiring and the disconnection, as well as the assembly and the circuit breaker again take place from a single direction, resulting in a compact design.
  • the embodiment of Fig. 8 and 9 is essentially the same as the Fig. 1 to 4 , But has a special feature over this, which also in the embodiment of Fig. 5 and 6 and 7 or other variants of the invention, which is not limited to the illustrated embodiments, can be used. Operation, ie the switching on and off with the screwdriver 32 (FIG. Fig. 9 ) and the conductor supply and conductor removal takes place as in the embodiment of Fig. 1 to 4 ,
  • the connection strip 1 is the Fig. 8 and 9 provided with at least one or more projections 30 for the realization of a false plug protection. These projections 30 - in Fig.
  • the intermediate walls 6 are each provided on both sides with the projections 30, which contributes to a particularly good misfire protection.
  • the projections 30 prevent misfiring of the screwdriver 32 and also optimize the leadership of the actuators 19.
  • they are with the open side of the terminal block (in Fig. 8 towards the top) each provided with an insertion bevel 31, which contributes to the screwdriver 32 (FIG. Fig. 9 ) when inserting.
  • the displaceable actuating element 19 itself may be provided with contours preferably corresponding to the projections 30, such as webs 33 or recesses which, on the one hand, optimize the guidance and / or the incorrectness of the actuating element 19.
