Abstract
Description
Die Erfindung betrifft ein Schaltgerät, vorzugsweise Schutzschalter, insbesondere Fehlerstromschutzschalter und/oder Leitungsschutzschalter, mit wenigstens einer Anschlussklemme mit einem Klemmbereich zur Aufnahme wenigstens eines Anschlussleiters, vorzugsweise mit rechteckigem Querschnitt, insbesondere eines Kontakts einer Sammelschiene, wobei die Anschlussklemme wenigstens eine Feder, zum Aufbringen eines in Richtung einer Schließstellung des Klemmbereichs wirkenden Kontaktdruckes umfasst, und wobei das Schaltgerät ein Gehäuse mit Klemmöffnungen und Klemmschrauböffuungen umfasst, wobei in der Klemmschrauböffnung ein Verschlussstück, vorzugsweise umfassend Isolierstoff, angeordnet ist.The invention relates to a switching device, preferably circuit breaker, in particular residual current circuit breaker and / or circuit breaker, with at least one terminal with a clamping area for receiving at least one connecting conductor, preferably with a rectangular cross-section, in particular a contact of a busbar, wherein the terminal at least one spring, for applying a in the direction of a closed position of the clamping region acting contact pressure, and wherein the switching device comprises a housing with clamping openings and Klemmschrauböffuungen, wherein in the Klemmschrauböffnung a closure piece, preferably comprising insulating material, is arranged.

Schaltgeräte weisen Anschlussklemmen zum Anschluss elektrischer Leiter auf. Diese Klemmen umfassen Klemmschrauben zur Verstellung des Klemmbereichs und Sicherung des Anschlusses im Klemmbereich.Switchgear have terminals for connecting electrical conductors. These terminals include clamping screws for adjusting the clamping area and securing the connection in the clamping area.
Nachteilig an derartigen Schaltgeräten ist, dass die Installation bzw. das Verschalten derartiger Schaltgeräte sehr zeitraubend, kompliziert und fehleranfällig ist. Vor allem beim Verschalten von Schaltgeräten mittels sog. Sammelschienen ist das. Schließen der Schraubklemmen der einzige wesentliche Arbeitsaufwand sowie die wesentliche Fehlerquelle. Bei einer Sammelschiene kann nur schwer überprüft werden ob bei einem Schaltgerät die Klemmschraube der Anschlussklemme nicht festgezogen ist, da ein Ziehen an einer ansonsten fest angeschraubten Sammelschiene für eine Kontrolle des Kontaktdruckes an jedem Schaltgerät untauglich ist. Dies kann zu Beeinträchtigungen der Stromversorgung bzw. zu Beschädigungen an einem Schaltgerät führen, etwa durch übermäßige Erwärmung eines Kontakts aufgrund mangelnden Kontaktdruckes.A disadvantage of such switching devices is that the installation or interconnection of such switching devices is very time-consuming, complicated and error-prone. Especially when connecting switching devices by means of so-called busbars that is. Closing the screw terminals the only essential work and the main source of error. In the case of a busbar, it is difficult to check whether the clamping screw of the terminal is not tightened in a switching device, since pulling on an otherwise firmly screwed busbar is inappropriate for checking the contact pressure on each switching device. This can lead to impairments of the power supply or damage to a switching device, such as excessive heating of a contact due to lack of contact pressure.
Aufgabe der Erfindung ist es daher ein Schaltgerät der eingangs genannten Art anzugeben, mit welchem die genannten Nachteile vermieden werden können, und welches eine einfache, unkomplizierte und schnelle Installation bzw. Verschaltung, insbesondere ohne Werkzeuge wie etwa Schraubendreher, ermöglicht.The object of the invention is therefore to provide a switching device of the type mentioned, with which the mentioned disadvantages can be avoided, and which allows a simple, straightforward and quick installation or interconnection, especially without tools such as screwdrivers.
Erfindungsgemäß wird dies dadurch erreicht, dass das Verschlussstück einen Klemmöffnungsfortsatz aufweist, welcher die Klemmöffnung bereichsweise ausfüllt. Dadurch können Anschlussleiter, insbesondere Sammelschienen bzw. deren Kontakte, ohne die Verwendung von Werkzeug in den Anschlussklemmen des Schaltgeräts sicher und kontaktfest angeordnet bzw. fixiert werden. Dadurch ist eine schnelle und unkomplizierte Installation insbesondere von Schaltgeräten, welche auf einer Sammelschiene angeordnet sind möglich. Dadurch ist der Einsatz von Gehäusen möglich, welche für den Einsatz mit Schraubklemmen vorgesehen sind, wobei der unbefugte Zugriff auf die Anschlussklemmen verhindert werden. Dadurch ist der Einsatz von Gehäusen möglich, welche für den Einsatz mit Schraubklemmen vorgesehen sind, wobei der nun nicht mehr benötigte Bereich der Klemmöffnung verdeckt und damit vor unbefugtem Zugriff gesichert werden kann.According to the invention this is achieved in that the closure piece has a clamping opening extension, which fills the clamping opening partially. As a result, connection conductors, in particular busbars or their contacts, without the use of tools in the terminals of the switching device can be securely and contact-resistant arranged or fixed. As a result, a quick and easy installation in particular of switching devices, which are arranged on a busbar possible. As a result, the use of housings is possible, which are intended for use with screw terminals, whereby the unauthorized access to the terminals can be prevented. As a result, the use of housings is possible, which are intended for use with screw terminals, wherein the now no longer required area of the clamping opening can be covered and thus secured against unauthorized access.
In Weiterführung der Erfindung kann vorgesehen sein, dass die Feder als Schraubfeder ausgebildet ist. Dadurch ist eine besonders einfache und kostenschonende Fertigung möglich, da Schraubenfedern als Massenware hergestellt werden und keinerlei gesonderte spezielle Behandlung bzw. besondere Herstellung notwendig ist.In continuation of the invention can be provided that the spring is designed as a helical spring. As a result, a particularly simple and cost-saving production is possible because coil springs are manufactured as mass-produced and no separate special treatment or special production is necessary.
In diesem Zusammenhang kann in Weiterführung der Erfindung vorgesehen sein, dass ein anschlussleiterfreier Klemmbereich wenigstens bereichsweise offen ist. Dadurch wird das Einführen von Anschlussleitern, insbesondere von Kontakten einer Sammelschiene vereinfacht.In this context, it can be provided in a continuation of the invention that a connection conductor free clamping area is at least partially open. This simplifies the insertion of connecting conductors, in particular contacts of a busbar.
Gemäß einer weiteren Ausführungsform der Erfindung kann bei einem Schaltgerät, bei dem die Anschlussklemme ein im Schaltgerät feststehendes Klemmelement und einen im Wesentlichen rechteckigen Kasten umfasst, wobei das Klemmelement zwischen einem ersten Kantenbereich und einem zweiten Kantenbereich des Kastens angeordnet ist, und wobei der Klemmbereich vom ersten Kastenbereich und einer ersten Kleminelementseite begrenzt ist, vorgesehen sein, dass die Feder zwischen dem zweiten Kastenbereich und einer, der ersten Klemmelementseite gegenüber angeordneten, zweiten Klemmelementseite angeordnet ist. Dadurch kann eine übliche Schraubklemme, welche auch als Liftklemme bekannt ist, ohne Umbauarbeiten bzw. geänderter Konstruktion eingesetzt werden, wodurch sowohl der Herstellungsaufwand für das Schaltgerät gering gehalten wird, da dieselben Gehäuse und auch die selben Spritzgussformen verwendet werden können, wie bei Schaltgeräten mit Schraubklemmen und auch die Klemmen bis auf die verwendeten Federn mit den Schraubklemmen ident sein können. Dies spart Teile und Herstellungskosten und ermöglicht es eine flexible Fertigung aufzubauen, welche schnell und unkompliziert auf geänderte Kundenanforderungen reagieren kann.According to a further embodiment of the invention may be in a switching device, wherein the terminal comprises a clamping device fixed in the switching device and a substantially rectangular box, wherein the clamping element between a first edge region and a second edge region of the box is arranged, and wherein the clamping region of the first Box area and a first Kleminelementseite is limited, be provided that the spring between the second box portion and one, the first clamping element side arranged opposite, second clamping element side is arranged. As a result, a conventional screw, which is also known as a lift clamp, be used without alterations or modified construction, whereby both the manufacturing cost of the switching device is kept low, since the same housing and the same injection molds can be used, as in switchgear with screw terminals and also the terminals except for the springs used can be identical to the screw terminals. This saves parts and production costs and enables flexible production to be built up, which can react quickly and easily to changing customer requirements.
Gemäß wieder einer anderen Ausführungsform der Erfindung kann vorgesehen sein, dass im Bereich des ersten Kastenbereichs ein, dem Klemmbereich abgewandter, Lappen an dem Kasten angeordnet ist, insbesondere einstückig angeformt ist. Dadurch wird das Einführen eines Leiters in den Raum hinter der Anschlussklemme verhindert.According to yet another embodiment of the invention, it may be provided that in the region of the first box area, a tab facing away from the clamping area is arranged on the box, in particular integrally formed. This prevents the insertion of a conductor into the space behind the terminal.
Eine Variante der Erfindung kann darin bestehen, dass das Klemmelement als im Wesentlichen rechteckiger Rahmen ausgebildet ist, und der zweite Kastenbereich zwischen einem, die erste und zweite Klemmelementseitc umfassenden, ersten Rahmenbereich und einem, zu diesem im Wesentlichen parallelen, zweiten Rahmenbereich angeordnet ist. Dadurch kann die Feder geschützt werden und eine Beschädigung der Anschlussklemme vor allem im Bereich der Fertigung verhindert werden. Dadurch kann ebenfalls eine bereits als Schraubklemme vorhandene Anschlussklemme verwendet werden, mit den bereits beschriebenen Vorteilen, wie etwa die Verwendung identer Gehäuse bzw. Spritzgussformen, sowie bis auf die Feder identer Anschlussklemmen. Dadurch wird die Flexibilität erhöht und die Fertigungskosten sowie die Lagerhaltungskosten reduziert.A variant of the invention can consist in that the clamping element is designed as a substantially rectangular frame, and the second box area is arranged between a first frame area comprising the first and second clamping element sides and a second frame area substantially parallel thereto. As a result, the spring can be protected and damage to the terminal, especially in the field of manufacturing can be prevented. As a result, it is also possible to use a connection terminal already present as a screw terminal, with the advantages already described, such as the use of identical housings or injection molds, as well as connection terminals of the same kind as the spring. This increases flexibility and reduces manufacturing and warehousing costs.
Eine andere mögliche Ausführungsform kann darin bestehen, dass der zweite Rahmenbereich wenigstens eine Ausnehmung aufweist. Eine derartige Ausnehmung kann bereits bei einer, auch als Schraubklemme verwendbaren, Anschlussklemme vorhanden sein, und für eine Interaktion mit dem Verschlussstück verwendet werden.Another possible embodiment may be that the second frame portion has at least one recess. Such a recess may already be present at a connection terminal which can also be used as a screw terminal, and be used for interaction with the closure piece.
In diesem Zusammenhang kann in Weiterführung der Erfindung vorgesehen sein, dass das Verschlussstück einen Klemmfortsatz aufweist, welcher durch die Ausnehmung hindurch auf den, wenigstens im Bereich des Klemmfortsatzes ausnehmungsfreien, zweiten Kastenbereich drückt, wobei der Klemmbereich aufgedrückt wird. Dadurch kann gewährleistet werden, dass der Klemmbereich einen gewissen Bereich geöffnet ist, wodurch das Einführen eines Anschlussleiters wesentlich vereinfacht wird, bzw. die dafür notwendigen Drücke verringert werden.In this context, it can be provided in a continuation of the invention that the closure piece has a clamping extension which presses through the recess on the at least in the region of the clamping extension recess-free second box area, wherein the clamping area is pressed. This can ensure that the clamping region is opened a certain range, whereby the insertion of a connecting conductor is substantially simplified, and the necessary pressures are reduced.

Dadurch können Anschlussleiter 4, insbesondere Sammelschiene 6 bzw. deren Kontakte 5, ohne die Verwendung von Werkzeug in den Anschlussklemmen 2 des Schaltgeräts 1 sicher und kontaktfest angeordnet bzw. fixiert werden. Dadurch ist eine schnelle und unkomplizierte Installation insbesondere von Schaltgeräten 1, welche auf einer Tragschiene angeordnet sind möglich.As a result, connection conductors 4, in
Bei erfindungsgemäßen Schaltgeräten 1 kann es sich um jede Art Schaltgerät 1 handeln. Bevorzugt sind Schutzschalter, insbesondere Fehlerstromschutzschalter und/oder Leitungsschutzschalter vorgesehen.
Bei der Feder 7 zum Aufbringen des Kontaktdruckes kann es sich um jede Art Feder 7 handeln, wie etwa Blattfedern, Tellerfedern und/oder Schraubfedern 8, in jeder Ausführung bzw. in Kombination miteinander, sowohl Zug- als auch als Druckfedern. Besonders bevorzugt ist der Einsatz sog. Schraubdruckfedern.The spring 7 for applying the contact pressure may be any type of spring 7, such as leaf springs, disc springs and / or helical springs 8, in each embodiment or in combination with each other, both tension and compression springs. Particularly preferred is the use of so-called helical compression springs.
Erfindungsgemäße Schaltgeräte 1 können zum Einsatz jeder Art Anschlussleiter 4 vorgesehen sein, etwa Runddrähte, Flachdrähte und/oder Stecker. Insbesondere ist der Einsatz zusammen mit sog. Sammelschienen 6 vorgesehen. Diese Sammelschienen 6, wie beispielhaft in
Der Klemmbereich 3 der Anschlussklemme 2 kann wenigstens einen Bereich der Feder 7 umfassen, bzw. durch wenigstens einen Bereich der Feder 7 gebildet sein. Es kann vorgesehen sein, dass die Anschlussklemme 2 eine im Wesentlichen Ω-förmig gebogene Blattfeder umfasst, wobei der Klemmbereich 3 durch die schmale Öffnung der Ω-förmig gebogenen Blattfeder gebildet ist.The clamping
Um das Einführen der Anschlussleiter 4 zu vereinfachen kann vorgesehen sein, dass ein anschlussleiterfreier Klemmbereich 3 wenigstens bereichsweise offen ist. Dadurch wird das Einführen eines Anschlussleiters 4 vereinfacht bzw. die für das Einführen notwendigen Kräfte verringert. Insbesondere kann vorgesehen sein, dass der Klemmbereich 3 0,1mm bis 0,5mm offen steht. Vorzugsweise kann vorgesehen sein, dass der Querschnitt der durch das Offenstehen des Klemmbereichs 3 gebildeten Öffnung etwa 10% bis 60% des Querschnitts des Anschlussleiters 4 beträgt, welcher zur Verwendung mit dem jeweiligen Schaltgerät 1 vorgesehen ist. Durch die für jedes Schaltgerät 1 verfügbaren Angaben hinsichtlich der zu schaltenden Ströme kann ein Verhältnis zum Leiterquerschnitt hergestellt werden, welcher für die entsprechenden Ströme notwenig ist. Zum Offenhalten des Klemmbereichs 3 kann jedes Mittel vorgesehen sein. Insbesondere kann etwa ein flexibles Band vorgesehen sein, welches die Feder 7 umschlingt und somit nur eine maximale Ausdehnung der Feder 7 zulässt. Besonders bevorzugt kann eine separate Vorrichtung zum Offenhalten des Klemmbereichs vorgesehen sein, welche an anderer Stelle erläutert wird.In order to simplify the insertion of the connection conductors 4, it may be provided that a connection conductor-
Bevorzugt ist vorgesehen, dass die Feder 7 lediglich den in Richtung einer Schließstellung des Klemmbereichs 3 wirkenden Kontaktdruck aufbringt. Bei der ersten und zweiten besonders bevorzugten Ausführungsform einer Anschlussklemme 2, 26, 27, wie in den
Die bevorzugte erste und zweite Ausführungsform einer Anschlussklemme 2, 26, 27 weist ein im Schaltgerät 1 feststehendes Klemmelement 9 und einen im Wesentlichen rechteckigen Kasten 10 auf, wobei das Klemmelement 9 zwischen einem ersten Kastenbereich 11 und einem zweiten Kastenbereich 12 des Kastens 10 angeordnet ist, und wobei der Klemmbereich 3 vom ersten Kastenbereich 11 und einer ersten Klemmelementseite 13 begrenzt ist, wobei die Feder 7 zwischen dem zweiten Kastenbereich 12 und einer, der ersten Klemmelementseite 13 gegenüber angeordneten, zweiten Klemmelementseite 14 angeordnet ist.The preferred first and second embodiment of a
Das Klemmelement 9 ist bei der ersten bevorzugten Ausführungsform einer Anschlussklemme 2, 26 als im Wesentlichen gerader Blechstreifen, insbesondere umfassend Stahl, Kupfer und/oder Kupferlegierungen, insbesondere Messing, ausgeführt, welcher in dem Schaltgerät 1 unbeweglich, insbesondere im Bereich eines Klemmentunnels, angeordnet ist, etwa durch Einklemmen zwischen Anformungen an die Klemmentunnelinnenwandung.The clamping
Der Kasten 10 ist ein vorzugsweise, und wie dargestellt, im Wesentlichen rechteckiger Bauteil, der vorzugsweise aus einem viermal um etwa 90° abgewinkelten Metallstreifen, insbesondere Streifen umfassend Stahl, Kupfer und/oder Kupferlegierungen, etwa Messing, besteht. Bevorzugt weist der Kasten 10 einen überlappenden Bereich auf. Es kann vorgesehen sein, dass der Kasten 10 zur Bildung einer verwindungssteifen Einheit, insbesondere im überlappenden Bereich, verbunden, insbesondere verschweißt oder vernietet, ist.The
Es kann vorgesehen sein, wie bei der zweiten bevorzugten Ausführungsform einer Anschlussklemme 2, 27, dass das Klemmelement 9 als im Wesentlichen rechteckiger Rahmen 16 ausgebildet ist, und der zweite Kastenbereich 12 zwischen einem, die erste und zweite Klemmelementseite 13, 14 umfassenden, ersten Rahmenbereich 17 und einem, zu diesem im Wesentlichen parallelen, zweiten Rahmenbereich 18 angeordnet ist. Wie in den
Um ein Einführen von Anschlussleitern 4 und/oder Werkzeugen in einem Raum hinter der Anschlussklemme 2 zu verhindern kann vorgesehen sein, dass im Bereich des ersten Kastenbereichs 11 ein, dem Klemmbereich 3 abgewandter, Lappen 15 an dem Kasten 10 angeordnet ist, insbesondere einstückig angeformt ist.In order to prevent the insertion of connection conductors 4 and / or tools in a space behind the
Um bei erfindungsgemäßen Schaltgeräten 1 bereits vorhandene Gehäuse 19, welche für Schraubanschlussklemmen vorgesehen sind, weiterhin verwenden zu können, ist bei derartigen Schaltgeräten 1 mit Gehäusen 19 welche Klemmschrauböffnungen 21, sowie Klemmöffnungen 20, insbesondere zusätzliche Klemmöffnungen 20 zum Klemmen sog. Kabelschuhe, aufweisen, vorgesehen, dass in der Klemmschrauböffnung 21 ein Verschlussstück 22, vorzugsweise umfassend Isolierstoff, angeordnet ist. Dadurch können dieselben Gehäuse 19 wie bisher verwendet werden, ohne dass die Gefahr eines unbefugten Zugriffs durch eine nicht mehr notwendige Klemmschrauböffuung 21 besteht. Dadurch können wesentliche Kosten eingespart werden, da keine neue Spritzgussform für ein neues Gehäuse 19 notwendig ist.In order to continue to be able to use existing
Die
Das Verschlussstück weist 22 einen Klemmöffnungsfortsatz 23 auf, welcher die Klemmöffnung 20 bereichsweise ausfüllt. Dadurch können unnötige Klemmöffnungen 20, welche etwa für Kabelschuhe vorgesehen waren, welche zwischen dem Kopf einer Klemmschraube und dem Klemmelement 9 geklemmt werden sollten, vollständig verschlossen werden, wodurch ein Zugriff, bzw. das Eindringen von Fremdkörpern und Schmutz verhindert wird. Dadurch kann die Sicherheit gegen Berühren stromführender Bauteile erhöht werden, das Eindringen von Schmutz, Flüssigkeiten bzw. Kleinlebewesen in das Schaltgerät verhindert bzw. erschwert werden, und die Luft- bzw. Kriechstromstrecken zwischen benachbarten Schaltgeräten 1 erhöht werden. Ein derart gebildetes Schaltgerät 1 weist daher eine besonders hohe Betriebssicherheit und eine hohe Lebensdauer auf. Insbesondere im US-amerikanischen Raum sind spezielle Sicherungskästen für die Anordnung von Schutzschaltern unüblich. Ein entsprechender Schutzschalter ist daher in einer derartigen Anordnung vielfältigen Umweltbelastungen ausgesetzt, etwa ist es speziell im US-amerikanischen Raum nicht unüblich, Schutzschalter beim Streichen der diese umgebenden Gebäudewand mit zu übermahlen, was durch in das Schaltgerät 1 eindringende Farbe zur vollständigen Funktionsuntüchtigkeit des Schutzschalters führen kann, was durch das Vorsehen eines entsprechenden Verschlussstücks 22 mit einem Klemmöffnungsfortsatz 23 wirkungsvoll und kostenschonend verhindert werden kann, wodurch die Sicherheit einer betreffenden elektrischen Anlage über lange Zeit auch unter schwierigen Umweltbedingungen gewährleistet werden kann. Durch das Vorsehen eines Verschlussstücks 22, welches einen Klemmöfmungsfortsatz 23 aufweist zusammen mit einer vorstehend beschriebenen Anschlussklemme mit wenigstens einer Feder 7 kann besonders einfach und vorteilhaft auf bereits vorhandene Gehäusekonstruktionen zurückgegriffen werden, wodurch die Fertigungs- und die Lagerhaltungskosten gering gehalten werden können, wobei weiterhin eine hohe Sicherheit und Lebensdauer der betreffenden Schaltgeräte 1 gewährleistet ist.The closure piece has a
Wie bereits dargelegt kann es vorteilhaft sein, wenn der Klemmbereich 3 der Anschlussklemme 2 nicht vollständig geschlossen ist, wodurch das Einführen eines Anschlussleiters 4 vereinfacht wird. Daher kann es bei Schaltgeräten 1, welche eine Anschlussklemme 2 aufweisen, bei welcher der zweite Rahmenbereich 18 wenigstens eine Ausnehmung 24 aufweist, vorgesehen sein, dass das Verschlussstück 22 einen Klemmfortsatz 25 aufweist, welcher durch die Ausnehmung 24 hindurch auf den, wenigstens im Bereich des Klemmfortsatzes 25 ausnehmungsfreien, zweiten Kastenbereich 12 drückt, wobei der Klemmbereich 3 aufgedrückt wird.
