Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a connection terminal and a low voltage electrical device comprising such a terminal.
  • connection terminal intended for the connection of an electrical conductor, comprising a conductive connection strip and a clamping spring, the spring comprising a support branch connected by a bend to a clamping branch intended to clamp the driver against a clamping portion of the bar, the bar having a first face facing the bend of the spring and a second face opposite the first face.
  • Maintaining the spring position relative to the bar may be provided by the specific form of a housing formed in an insulating body of an electrical appliance receiving the terminal. In this case, it is necessary to proceed to a separate mounting in the body of the device for the bar on the one hand and for the spring on the other hand, which complicates the manufacture of the device.
  • the spring in position relative to the bar may also be ensured by the realization of a specific form of bar to form a housing of the support branch.
  • the bar has a suitable profile that complicates its manufacture and involves the use of a larger amount of metal for the realization of the bar.
  • the present invention aims to solve all or part of the disadvantages mentioned above.
  • the present invention relates to an apparatus according to the aforementioned type, characterized in that the spring comprises at least one support hook oriented transversely to the plane of the support branch, extend relative to this plane in the opposite direction to the clamping leg and bearing on the second face of the bar opposite the first face of the bar facing the bend of the spring.
  • the arrangements according to the invention allow the spring to be held in position on the bar by contact between the clamping portion of the bar and the clamping leg of the spring on the one hand and by contact between the support hook or hooks and the second face of the bar on the other hand.
  • the hook passes through the plane of the bar at an opening thereof.
  • the opening of the bar is made by a lateral notch.
  • the bar comprises two lateral notches on the two opposite lateral edges of the bar, the spring comprising two lateral support hooks intended to cross respectively the plane of the bar at the two notches.
  • the at least one support hook is obtained by folding the support branch.
  • the bar comprises a through opening not opening on the side edges of the bar, the spring comprising a hook for passing through the plane of the bar by this opening.
  • the bar comprises means forming a stop for the clamping leg of the bar at the contact zone between the clamping leg and the bar in the rest position of the terminal.
  • the stopper is constituted by a notch in the bar.
  • the clamping portion of the conductor on the bar is constituted by the wall of an opening in the bar.
  • the wall of the opening comprises a collar.
  • the clamping portion of the conductor on the bar is made at a portion of the bar folded relative to the portion of the bar on which the support leg of the spring is supported.
  • the hook of the spring is connected to the support branch by an edge folded along a fold axis substantially parallel to the axis of the support branch.
  • the hook of the spring forms a curved portion in the extension of the support branch.
  • the present invention also relates to an electrical apparatus comprising an insulating body and at least one connection terminal as described above.
  • connection terminal for connecting an electrical conductor 1 is received in a housing of the insulating body 2 of a low voltage electrical apparatus.
  • the insulating body 2 comprises an insertion opening 3 of a conductor opening into the housing of the terminal.
  • the insulating body 2 also comprises an opening 4 opening into the housing of the terminal intended for the introduction of a tool in order to allow the removal of the conductor 1.
  • the terminal comprises a conductive connecting bar 5 and a clamping spring 6.
  • the connecting bar 5 comprises a first straight portion 7, in which are formed two lateral notches 8 located opposite, on either side of this bar 5, which constitute two first openings crossing the bar 5, these two openings 8 opening on the lateral edges of the bar 5.
  • the bar also comprises a fold 9 and a second portion 10 inclined relative to the first portion.
  • a third central opening 12 is formed in the bar at the second portion.
  • This opening is through and formed by stamping flat in the bar from the underside of the bar so as to make around the opening 12 a collar 13.
  • the generatrices of this collar 13 are substantially parallel to the axis of the opening 3 for introducing the conductor 1.
  • the wall of the collar 13 constitutes a clamping portion 14 of the bar 5 against which the conductor 1 is pressed by the spring 6.
  • the spring 6 comprises a support branch 15 and a clamping branch 16 of the conductor 1.
  • the clamping branch 16 and the support branch 15 are connected by a bend 17.
  • the clamping branch 16 is intended to clamp the conductor 1 against the clamping portion 14 of the bar.
  • the support leg 15 is extended by folding by support hooks 18 intended to bear on the lower face 19 of the bar 5 opposite the face 20 of the bar 5 facing the elbow 17 of the spring.
  • hooks 18 are oriented transversely to the plane of the support branch 15 and extend relative to this plane in the direction opposite to that of the clamping branch 16.
  • the hooks 18 are made by cutting and folding along a folding axis substantially parallel to the axis of the support branch 15.
  • Each support hook 18 passes through the bar 5 respectively by one of the two lateral openings or notches 8 and comes into contact with the lower face 19 of the bar by a bearing zone 22.
  • the bar 5 comprises at the clamping portion 13 of the bar 5, a notch 23 constituting a stop for the end of the clamping branch 16 of the spring 6 at the contact zone between the clamping leg 16 and the bar 5 in the rest position of the terminal, that is to say when there is no connected conductor .
  • the housing 24 of the terminal in the insulating body of the electrical apparatus has a profiled wall outside the bend of the spring and a guide pin 25 intended to be positioned inside the bend 17 of the spring 6, between the branch of support 15 and the clamping branch 16.
  • the shape and stiffness of the spring 6 allow to introduce the conductor 1 against the force of the spring without using a tool.
  • the hooks 18 are made by cutting and folding along a transverse fold axis to the axis of the support branch 15.
  • the lateral notches 8 of the bar are made by cutting and folding the first portion of the bar 5.
  • the bar does not show any bending between the first and the second portion, the profile of the bar being straight.
  • the first portion of the bar comprises a through opening does not open on the side edges of the bar, the spring comprising a hook for passing through the plane of the bar through this opening.
  • the clamping portion of the bar is constituted by a folded portion relative to the first portion, and not by a stamped opening.
