Definitions

  • the present invention relates to an insertion terminal for a switch including a circuit breaker such as a molded case circuit breaker or an earth leakage breaker.
  • a terminal structure that includes clip terminals which are provided on the main switch unit and have each a pair of pressing portions facing each other, and that includes blade terminals having blade portions which are provided on the insertion terminal.
  • the main switch unit can be mounted to the insertion terminal by clamping the blade portions of the blade terminals using pressing force of the pair of pressing portions, so that the external conductors connected to the insertion terminal are electrically connected to the main switch unit (for example, Japanese Laid-Open Patent Publication No. 2009-26652 (Pages 4 through 6, and Fig. 1 )).
  • the blade terminals of the above conventional insertion terminal include blade portions to be clamped by the clip terminals and female screw portions for connecting the blade portions to the external conductors. Because the insertion terminal has been configured as described above, the conventional blade terminal has complicated configuration that needs cold forging or cutting to manufacture, resulting in an increased manufacturing cost.
  • the terminal may be deformed when the main switch unit is inserted or pulled out, because the stiffness of the terminal is insufficient if the conductive plate is only bended simply.
  • the present invention has been made to solve above-described problems, and an object of the invention is to provide an insertion terminal for a switch having a cheap and reliable blade terminal.
  • a blade terminal is configured by forming a boxy portion having a box shape made of a conductive plate having a rectangle shape, and by forming one end portion of the conductive plate as a blade portion perpendicularly rising from the boxy portion.
  • an insertion terminal for a switch having a cheap and strong blade terminal.
  • Fig. 1 is an oblique perspective view illustrating a state of a main switch unit "1" and an insertion terminal “2" according to Embodiment 1 of the present invention before they are connected with each other.
  • Fig. 2 is a view illustrating one of clip terminals "3" mounted on the main switch unit 1 side in Fig. 1 , and one of blade terminals "4" and one of retaining plates "5" mounted on the insertion terminal 2 side, which are extracted from Fig. 1 .
  • Fig. 3 is a cross-sectional view illustrating the one of the clip terminals 3 and the one of the blade terminals 4, which are seen along the arrow "A" in Fig.
  • Fig. 4 is a cross-sectional view seen along the arrow "B" in Fig. 1 .
  • Figs. 5a and 5b are detailed views of the one of the blade terminals 4: Fig. 5a is an oblique perspective view of the terminal, and Fig. 5b is a cross-sectional view of the terminal seen in the same direction in Fig. 4 .
  • reference numerals which are the same as those in each figure, refer to identical items.
  • the main switch unit 1 for opening/closing electrical paths is a circuit breaker such as a molded case circuit breaker or an earth leakage breaker.
  • the main switch unit 1 is configured externally with an insulation casing "9" including a cover “9a” having a case shape and a base “9b” having a frame shape.
  • power source side terminals "11a” are electrically connected with or disconnected from load side terminals "11b" of the main switch unit 1 by turning a handle "10", which is jutted out from a portion of the cover 9a, to the right or left side in Fig. 1 .
  • the right side is a power source side
  • the left side is a load side.
  • the position of the handle 10 shown in Fig. 1 is on the load side, and it means that the main switch unit 1 is in a disconnected state.
  • the clip terminals 3 are connected to the respective power source side terminals 11a and load side terminals 11b, and the power source side terminals 11a and load side terminals 11b can be electrically connected with their respective clip terminals 3.
  • the insertion terminal 2 is already fixed to a component such as a power switchboard.
  • the insertion terminal 2 is configured externally with an insulating resin, and includes a base portion "2a" fixed to a panel or an angle of a power switchboard (not illustrated) or the like, and terminal members "2b" which are provided at three positions on each side of the base portion 2a, that is, at six positions in total.
  • Blade terminals 4 are fixed to their respective terminal members 2b at positions where the blade terminals 4 face to their respective clip terminals 3 of the main switch unit 1.
  • the main switch unit 1 can be mounted to the insertion terminal 2 by coupling the clip terminals 3 to the blade terminals 4 facing their respective clip terminals 3.
  • the clip terminal 3 is made from a conductive metal, and a whole configuration of the terminal forms a U-like shape.
  • the clip terminal 3 includes a connecting portion "3b" at its one end, which is electrically connected to the power source side terminal 11a or the load side terminal 11b, and includes pressing portions "3a" at the other end by which a plate like object can be clamped.
  • the pressing portions 3a are formed to clamp, by pressing force between the portions, a plate like object.
  • the blade terminal 4 includes a boxy portion having a box shape, which is made by bending a conductive material having a plate shape, and a blade portion "4a", which is a plate-shape member perpendicularly continuously standing from the boxy portion.
  • the boxy portion is arranged opposite to the clip terminal 3, with the blade portion 4a placed therebetween.
  • a through hole is formed that allows the blade portion 4a to protrude beyond the retaining plate 5.
  • Fig. 3 is a detailed view illustrating a connection state of the clip terminals 3 and the blade terminals 4, and is a cross-sectional view illustrating a state where those are seen along the arrow "A" in Fig. 1 when the main switch unit 1 and the insertion terminal 2 are connected each other.
  • Fig. 4 is a cross-sectional view seen along the arrow "B" in Fig. 1 at the same state in Fig. 3 .
  • the clip terminal 3 is fixed, directly or through a spacer 6, to the power source side terminal 11a provided in the main switch 1, by way of screw or the like (not illustrated), and these terminals are electrically connected each other.
  • the blade terminal 4 is held by the terminal member 2b of the insertion terminal 2 and fixed by the retaining plate 5.
  • the blade portion 4a of the blade terminal 4 passes through the retaining plate 5.
  • a female screw portion 4b, as connecting portion to an external conductor "7" is formed inside the blade terminal 4, so that the external conductor 7 can be connected by a screw "8" using the female screw portion 4b.
  • Figs. 5a and 5b are detailed views of the blade terminals 4: Fig. 5a is an oblique perspective view of the terminals, and Fig. 5b is a cross-sectional view of the terminals, which are seen, in the same direction in Fig. 4 .
  • the blade terminal 4 includes a blade portion 4a clamped by the mutually facing pressing portions 3a of the clip terminal 3, a boxy portion for supporting the blade 4a, and a female screw portion 4b for connecting external conductor 7 provided at the opposite side of the blade 4a of the boxy portion. These portions are formed in a structure obtained by bending a continuous conductive plate having a rectangle shape.
  • One end portion of the plate having a rectangle shape constitutes the blade portion 4a, and the opposite end portion of the plate serves to support the blade portion 4a from its lower side.
  • the opposite end portion of the plate constitutes a fitting portion 4c that is fitted into a fitting hole 4d formed on a portion of the boxy portion.
  • the blade terminal 4 is configured by the steps in which the boxy portion is formed by bending a conductive plate having a continuous rectangle shape, inwardly at bending portions "4e”, “4f”, “4g”, and “4h", and the blade portion 4a is formed by bending one end portion of the plate outwardly at bending portions "4i" to thereby perpendicularly stand from the formed boxy portion.
  • bending at the respective bending portions "4e”, “4f”, “4g”, “4h”, and “4i” may be easily performed by using a plate member of which stiffness at the bending portions is lower than that at the other portions of the blade terminal 4.
  • the blade terminal 4 that is strong against a load imposed on the blade portion 4a when the main switch unit 1 and the insertion terminal 2 are connected.
  • the blade terminal 4 can be stronger than conventional terminals, because a hole is formed on a conductive plate having a rectangle shape to be bent, and the fitting portion 4c is inserted to the hole 4d when a boxy portion is formed by bending the conductive plate.
  • Figs. 6a and 6b are detailed views of one of blade terminals "14" according to Embodiment 2:
  • Fig. 6a is an oblique perspective view of the terminal
  • Fig. 6b is a cross-sectional view of the terminal seen in the same direction in Fig. 4 .
  • reference numerals which are the same as those in Figs. 5a and 5b , refer to identical configuration items, and the explanations for the reference numerals are omitted.
  • the blade terminal 14 is different from the blade terminal 4 according to Embodiment 1 in a viewpoint that the female screw portion 4b is replaced with a simple through-hole "13", and a nut "12" is provided inside the blade terminal 14 formed with a box shape.
  • the nut 12 can be those having female screw, such as a hexagon nut or a special nut, and the female screw portion 4b according to Embodiment 1 can be replaced with a simple through-hole 13 with keeping the same function of Embodiment 1, without the need of the thread working.
  • a blade terminal 14 can be provided with simpler configuration to be fabricated more easily than that of Embodiment 1.
