Definitions
- the invention relates to a protective plug for a connection module, in particular in a terminal distributor.
- Terminal distributors typically represent the last connection point between the system side and the subscriber. Therefore, end-users are also locally located close to the subscribers, for example on a building wall.
- An end splitter typically consists of a housing in which a plurality of connection modules are arranged, which are designed for the connection of double cores.
- the contacts for connecting the pairs are preferably arranged in two parallel rows, wherein the incoming system wires are connected to one row and to the other row the outgoing to the subscriber double wires.
- surge arresters In order to limit the influence voltages by atmospheric discharges and short-time high-current influences, it is known to use surge arresters.
- the connection modules For grinding in the surge arrester, the connection modules have, for example, protruding contact springs which are connected to the connection contacts of the connection module.
- a protective plug or a protective magazine is inserted.
- a protective plug if a double wire is secured, whereas with a magazine several double wires are secured at the same time.
- the term protective plug should be understood to include the protection of multiple pairs.
- These protective plugs have, according to the number of cores to be protected, a corresponding number of two-pole surge arresters, wherein the earth terminals are connected via a contact with a ground rail.
- a terminal block in particular for a Endverzweiger the telecommunications, with a generic protective plug known.
- the invention has the technical problem of providing a protective plug, which has a simple structure and by means of which a connection module with arranged contact springs can be protected against overvoltages.
- the surge arrester is arranged on a printed circuit board, wherein the terminal contacts are designed as a double fork contacts with a stop which abuts against a stop edge in the housing.
- the terminal contacts are designed as a double fork contacts with a stop which abuts against a stop edge in the housing.
- the first-time fitting of the protective plug is easier because the soldered onto the circuit board surge arrester are used simultaneously by inserting the circuit board.
- the fork contacts can better compensate for manufacturing tolerances of the contact springs.
- the double fork contacts are preferably first introduced into the housing from the back, wherein the double fork contacts abut with their stop against the stop edge.
- the circuit board is then inserted, which in each case pushes a fork contact of the double fork contact on the circuit board and contacted there a trace to the surge arresters.
- the surge arresters are preferably designed as three-pole surge arresters, so that in each case a surge arrester protects a double conductor.
- the ground contact is designed as a double fork contact, which is inserted from the front and through the
- the double fork contact is formed with a bend. This makes it possible that the one fork contact contacted the circuit board and the other fork contact for contacting the ground rail is below the fork contacts of the connection contacts for the contact springs of the connection module.
- the ground contact designed as a double fork contact is preferably inserted obliquely into an opening from the front side and rotated. This is done before inserting the circuit board, which then locks the double forked contact in the inserted state.
- the housing of the protective plug is formed with a latching element which fixes the printed circuit board.
- the surge arrester is designed with a fail-safe contact, so that after an overvoltage that has occurred, the double cores are permanently connected to ground.
- the protective plug comprises at least two surge arresters, which are arranged next to one another, wherein these are arranged offset from one another in the longitudinal direction.
- each surge arrester is assigned a ground contact.
- the ground currents distribute evenly over the ground contacts, so that the necessary requirements for the current carrying capacity of the individual contacts are not too high.
- 1 is an exploded view of a protective plug for a connection module of a branch distributor, 2 shows a first perspective view of the assembled protective plug,
- Fig. 3 is a second perspective view of the assembled protective plug
- Fig. 4 is a sectional view of the protective plug.
- the protective plug 1 is shown in an exploded view.
- the protective plug 1 comprises a housing 2, four double fork contacts 3, two double fork contacts 11 and a printed circuit board 4.
- the housing 2 is preferably formed in one piece and is preferably made of plastic, more preferably made of PC-ABS.
- Each of the four terminal contacts designed as a double fork contact 3 has a fork contact 3a, 3b at its opposite ends.
- the one fork contact 3a serves for contacting a conductor 4a, 4c on the circuit board 4 and the other fork contact 3b for contacting a contact spring 31 of a connection module 30.
- a stop 3c is arranged between the two fork contacts 3a, 3b.
- a pair of three parallel juxtaposed interconnects 4a, 4b, 4c are arranged, which are assigned to a surge arrester 5, so that on the circuit board 4, two three-pole surge arrester 5 are arranged with a fail-safe contact 6.
- the middle conductor track 4b contacts the middle contact 7 and the outer conductor tracks 4a, 4c the outer electrodes 8, 9 of the surge arrester 5.
- the contacting takes place by way of example via a solder connection.
- a fail-safe contact 6 is formed with shorting bars 10, via which the two outer electrodes 8, 9 are short-circuited to the ground terminal during melting of a plastic film.
- the protective plug 1 comprises two double fork contacts 11, which each have fork contacts 11a and 11b at both opposite ends.
- the double fork contacts 11 form the earth contacts of the protective plug 1.
- the fork contact 11a is used for contacting the middle conductor 4b on the circuit board 4, to an electrical connection to the central contact 7 of Surge Arrester 5 manufacture.
- the fork contact 11b is used to contact a metallic earth rail 32.
- the two fork contacts 11a, 11b are connected to each other via a bend 11c.
- the housing 2 comprises a partition wall 13, at the lower end of which a latching element 14 is arranged on the rear side 19 of the housing 2. Further, the housing 2 comprises four rib-shaped elements 15, two opening slots 16 and a plate 17th
- the housing 2 is preferably structured such that chamber-shaped regions are formed, into which the double fork contacts 3 can be inserted.
- the double fork contacts 3 then abut with the stop 3 c against a stop edge in the housing 2.
- the two double fork contacts 11 are inserted obliquely from above into the two opening slots 16 on the front side 20 and turned down.
- the printed circuit board 4 is then inserted into the housing 2 from the rear side 19.
- the fork contacts 3a, 11a slide over the printed circuit board 4 and contact the arranged on the top and / or bottom of the circuit board 4 interconnects 4a, 4b, 4c.
- the locking element 14 snaps behind the printed circuit board 4 and fixes it.
- the printed circuit board 4 fixes or locks the double fork contacts 3, 11.
- connection contacts are preferably formed as insulation displacement contacts.
- the connection module 30 would have 2 ⁇ 4 connection contacts in order to connect two pairs each to the system and the subscriber side, with one connection side associated with the system side being arranged with a connection contact of the participant side.
- the terminal contacts are preferably accessible from the bottom 33 opposite the top.
- the protective plug 1 is shown in the assembled state. It can be seen further that the rib-shaped elements 15 openings 18th have, in which the contact springs 31 of the connection module 30 can penetrate and be embraced by the fork contacts 3b from above and below on both sides, whereby a very stable electrical connection is formed. Further, it can be seen that the fork contacts 11b are below the fork contacts 3b so as to contact the ground rail 32 arranged below the connection module 30.
- Fig. 3 the protective plug 1 is shown in a perspective rear view.
- the two surge arresters 5 are arranged next to one another but offset in the longitudinal direction L of the housing 2 in order to ensure a sufficient distance between the fail-safe contacts 6.
- About the plate 17 can then the protective plug 1, when it is connected to the connection module, are easily pulled out with the help of a screwdriver.
- the protective plug 1 is shown in a sectional view, wherein the section line extends through a double fork contact 11.
