Definitions

  • the invention relates to a plug holder for at least one plug for plugging onto an electrical switching device, in particular a contactor.
  • connection techniques in contactors, in which connecting cables are connected via screw or spring terminals to the switching device.
  • tools for attaching and detaching the connection cables, tools, generally screwdrivers, must be used.
  • Tool-free connectable devices are also known.
  • plug devices There are at a plug-in part (plug-in device) at least one pair of locking elements are present, the direction of action are in line, and at the other mating connector at least a pair of receiving elements for the locking elements of the plug device are present, the direction of action lie in the same line.
  • a latching, releasable positive connection takes place between the latching elements arranged on the plug-in device and the receiving elements.
  • An example of such plug devices with locking devices can be found in the DE 19535836 A1 ,
  • the plug-in device consists according to the main claim of a plug holder and one or more associated plugs, which are assembled with one lead.
  • the plug holder is preferably made of insulating material.
  • the feed terminal in the switching device is recessed in a housing opening in an access side of the switching device.
  • the at least one supply connection is designed as a connection terminal with an exposed switch contact carrier of the switching apparatus of the switching device.
  • Essential components of conventional switching devices of a switching device are the contacts, which consist of a fixed contact and a moving contact.
  • the fixed contact is usually formed as the occupied with a contact piece end of a busbar. On this bus bar, a free end is formed, which is referred to in the context of this invention as an "exposed switch contact carrier".
  • the loosening or plugging of a plug can be done when arranged on the switching device plug holder.
  • a double-decker frame clamp is used in the switching device.
  • the frame is movable by the clamping screw to clamp an inserted electrical wire or strand.
  • a terminal a single terminal can be used, in which a pressure plate in the direction of the switch contact carrier is movable by the accessible from above and operable clamping screw.
  • the clamping function of the existing terminal is not used; it depends solely on the plug - via a floating contact - on the contact of the terminal, the contact of the projecting into the space of the terminal switching contact carrier of the switching apparatus of the switching device is. Plugging is only possible with the terminal open.
  • the plug contact may preferably be designed as a tulip contact. This is the best way to achieve a floating contact - without mechanical latching with the exposed switch contact carrier.
  • the access to the clamping screw is covered when the plug holder is mounted on the switching device, whereby a safeguard against intentional or unintentional rotation of the clamping screw is given.
  • At least one pair of reciprocal locking elements are formed on the plug holder and on the switching device is at least one pair of receiving elements for the locking elements of the plug holder formed with which a latching, releasable positive connection between the arranged on the plug holder locking elements and arranged on the switching device receiving elements can be achieved ,
  • the individual elements of the pairs of receiving elements and the individual elements of the pairs of locking elements act against each other force-locking.
  • the receiving elements on the switching device are not specially made or added; existing design elements and housing parts are used for this purpose.
  • the switch contact carrier is designed as a contact of a connection terminal.
  • latching lips are formed, which detachably hook in formed on the plug recesses or grooves.
  • the plug lead is crimped in a plug and the male part of the plug is designed as a floating contact (preferably as a tulip contact).
  • a floating contact preferably as a tulip contact.
  • At least one receiving window is present in the plug holder, preferably three receiving windows can be formed. It can thus be inserted according to the number of recording windows correspondingly many leads.
  • the lines can serve to feed or leave the switching contacts of the switching device.
  • the pair of receptacles is formed as a first undercut on the access side and as a second undercut on a perpendicular to the access side of the switch device.
  • the first undercut is a parallel to the bottom plate of the switching device arranged housing edge.
  • the second undercut is formed as an access opening for a clamping screw of the terminal clamp.
  • the connector holder should be used in contactors.
  • the particular advantage of the arrangement is that no clamping takes place on switching contacts, but the attachment takes place solely by snapping or latching on the housing of the switching device, thus outside the contact area.
  • the arrangement can be advantageously used in a motor starter contactor combinations, because the wiring is reduced and additional brackets on support or adapter rails, especially as strain relief for supply lines can be omitted. Likewise, the operation is faster feasible because fewer handling steps must be made.
  • connection cables can be inserted to 4 mm 2 to the switching device without tools and locked.
  • FIGS. 1A to 1B show three illustrations of the plug holder.
  • the plug holder 30 consists of a flat body 31, in which three windows 34 are formed for receiving plugs 36.
  • the receiving windows are adjacent to each other, corresponding to the supply terminals on the switching device.
  • the plug holder may also have only one receiving window. In the case shown, a multiphase (three-phase) plug-in device is present.
  • a resilient locking element 40 integrally formed with the holder body 31.
  • the resilient property is achieved by material dilution, a narrow web of material (40 ') or by forming a film hinge.
  • the locking element 40 can thereby be operated manually resiliently when latching or unlocking.
  • the length of the lever arm 40 and the distance of the locking elements 41 and 42 to the switching device and their shape are designed so that an optimal engagement can take place in the receiving elements on the contactor. Another illustrated measure is the depth ST (see FIG. 2) with which the plug can be inserted into the switching device (into the opening 84, see FIG. 2).
  • the locking elements on the plug holder are formed by two circular locking cams 41 and two locking lugs 42.
  • only a pair of locking elements may be present, so only one locking cam and only one locking lug.
  • the locking action is - in Fig. 2 - represented by the pair of arrows RS (rigid) and RF (resilient). Locking cams and locking lugs are positively inserted into corresponding receiving elements on the switching device.
  • Fig. 1C the plug holder and a recorded in the receiving window plug is shown in a sectional view.
  • locking lips 35 are formed, which hook in formed on the plug 36 wells 38.
  • the plug is locked in the receiving window 34 of the plug holder.
  • the strength of the latching is limited, so that the manual force of an operator is sufficient to remove and unlock the plugged plug.
  • the supply line 56 is crimped in a plug 36, wherein the conductor 33 is in conductive connection with the contact springs of the tulip contact 32.
  • the supply line 56 can be incorporated into a plug 36 in another form.
  • an unlocking device for an inserted cable strand or a wire end can be present.
  • such a configuration is not shown figuratively.
  • the plug has a plug contact 32 designed as a tulip contact, which is associated with the switch contact carrier 82 in the access side A1 of the switching device 80.
  • FIG. 2 shows in perspective a sectional view of the plug holder 30 and the switching device and their spatial assignment.
  • a switching device 80 here is shown, for example, a contactor, are shown in which substantially: the access side (surface A1) with openings 84, the clamping mechanism (86, 88), the exposed contact carrier (82, 83), a housing edge (89 ) and the bottom plate 81.
  • the switching device has - as usual, but not shown in the drawing - a switching device.
  • Part of the switching apparatus is formed as a busbar 83 switch contact carrier 82.
  • On the contactor 80 is the drawing section especially the switch contact carrier 82, the insertion opening 84, the clamping screw 88 for the double-decker frame clamp 86 and the access opening AE for the clamping screw 88 recognizable.
  • the switch contact carrier 82 is accessible on the access surface A1.
  • the switch contact carrier 82 is formed as a center contact of a double-decker clamp.
  • the opening 84 in the outwardly projecting end of the switch contact carrier is freely accessible.
  • As a terminal a single terminal can be used, in which by the clamping screw 88, a pressure plate in the direction of the switch contact carrier 82 is movable, whereby an inserted strand would be clamped.
  • the switching device act as receiving elements for the plug holder formed on the locking elements 41, 42 on top of the outer surface A2 'of the switching device visible openings AE for the clamping screw 88 and on the access side A1 an undercut 89, a parallel to the bottom plate 81 of the switching device 80 arranged housing edge is.
  • the access opening AE acts here as a first Undercut (see arrow R4), the reciprocal, other undercut is the edge 89 (see arrow R3).
  • the functionality of the receiving and locking elements is determined by a lying in a line direction of action.
  • the line of action runs almost vertically and approximately parallel to the access side A1 of the switching device.
  • a clamping effect or a detent form fit is indicated by arrows with the reference numerals RF and RS.
  • RF stands for resilient and RS for rigid 'action' of the locking element.
