Definitions

  • the invention relates to an electrical device with screw terminal for connecting or connecting electrical conductors.
  • Screw terminals which have projections in the form of beads or ribs on the inside of their screw shaft, so that a screw inserted into the screw shaft is secured against unintentional release from the screw shaft are known in principle.
  • This securing is achieved in that the projections reduce the inner diameter of the screw shaft, so that the screw head of an inserted screw exerts a radial compressive force on the projections. As a result, the screw head is frictionally held.
  • the citation DE 30 10 955 A1 shows an electrical connection terminal designed as a screw terminal, comprising a housing with an upper and lower side and at least two screw shafts arranged side by side in the housing, wherein the screw shafts each have a screw feed opening to insertion channels projecting over the upper side of the housing and extend in the direction of the underside, a transition region connects the screw shafts, elevations are arranged on the inside of the screw shafts, the elevations are arranged exclusively outside the transition region and the elevations end, viewed from the bottom, at or below the level of the top of the transition region.
  • the citation DE 297 14 690 U1 shows a terminal formed as a screw terminal, comprising a housing having a top and bottom and at least two juxtaposed in the housing screw shafts, wherein the screw wells each have a ringenzuGermanö réelle on the top and extending in the direction of the underside, the ringenzuGermanö réelle on a level the remaining top of the housing is, a transition region, the screw shafts interconnects, elevations are arranged on the inside of the screw shafts and the elevations viewed from the bottom at or below the level of the End of the transition area.
  • the invention is based on the object to develop a flatter screw with surveys on the inside of its screw shaft.
  • a flatter screw terminal has the advantage of meeting the requirements of increasing miniaturization in device construction. It is particularly suitable for applications that are characterized by low heights. This is the case, for example, in device housings or control cabinets. If the extension of the screw shafts above the level of the upper side of the transitional area is completely dispensed with, the entire upper side of the housing of the Schaubklemme is evenly flat, without elevations. A housing with a flat top has the advantage that it can be removed easier and gentler. This reduces the manufacturing costs and the housing is subjected to less mechanical stress in the production. In addition, such a screw can be better assemble and disassemble, because the screw can not hang with protruding beyond the top screw wells.
  • the radial compressive force of the screw head of a screw inserted in the screw shaft in the transition region is significantly reduced. This is particularly advantageous in the case of several screw shafts or housings lying next to one another, since significantly less pressure forces accumulate in the direction of arrangement. Ultimately, the radial compressive forces will cause a more or less severe deformation of the housing depending on the nature of the housing material. Decisive in this context is that there is only a minimal deformation of the housing in the direction of arrangement. Because especially between directly adjacent housings may even disadvantageously larger deformations arise gaps.
  • housing clearances are provided which at least partially surround the screw shafts.
  • the radial pressure forces of the screw head of a screw inserted in the screw shaft act resiliently on the screw shaft walls. Since the screw shaft walls are resiliently deflected into the housing clearance, a deformation of the housing beyond the housing clearances is thus excluded. This advantageously ensures that the housing clearances partially absorb the effect of the radial compressive forces and the housing deforms less. If the housing clearances are arranged outside the transition region, it is achieved that very small distances between the screw shafts and thus very small pitches of the screw can be realized.
  • a further reduction of the housing deformation can be achieved in that the elevations in the screw shaft are arranged exclusively in the area of the housing clearances.
  • This particularly preferred development of the invention achieves that the radial compressive forces of the screw head of a screw inserted in the screw shaft act exclusively resiliently on the screw shaft walls.
  • the strength of the radial compressive force is ultimately proportional to the difference between the screw head diameter and the reduced diameter of the screw shaft, due to the elevations in the screw shaft. Since in this embodiment, the effect of the radial compressive forces is absorbed only resiliently from the screw shaft walls, larger screw head diameter are tolerated, as if the pressure forces act on a solid housing and deform it in full. Therefore, larger tolerances of the screw head diameter can be accepted in this embodiment of the invention. This simplifies the manufacture of the screws, especially with very small screws, and reduces the manufacturing costs.
  • the elevations in the screw shaft extend from the screw feed opening starting in the direction of the underside over only a part of the screw shaft.
  • the elevations extend continuously over the entire length of the screw shaft.
  • FIGS. 1 . 2 and 4 show an electrical device 1. It comprises a housing 3 with a top 5 and a bottom 7, which is the top 5 opposite. Further, in the housing 3, two screw shafts 9 are arranged side by side and parallel to each other. In this embodiment, the screw shafts 9 are so close to each other that they are directly connected to each other in an area only by a shared screw shaft wall 10 (s. Fig. 1 and 2 ). In FIG. 4 is the area that connects the adjacent screw shafts 9 together - in this embodiment, the screw shaft wall 10 - as a transition region 11 characterized by a black filled area. On the upper side 5, the screw shafts 9 each have a screw feed opening 12.
  • the screw feed opening 12 is at a level with the rest of the top 5, which means the housing 3 has an overall evenly flat top 5, as in particular Fig. 3 evident. That is, unlike the prior art, the screw shafts 9 do not project beyond the top 5 of the transition portion 11.
  • a screw 13 can be introduced with screw head 15 in the screw shaft 9 (s. Fig. 3 ).
  • the screw shaft 9 and the screw head 15 are matched to one another such that the inner diameter of the screw shaft 9 is larger than the diameter of the screw head 15.
  • the screw shafts 9 extend in the direction of the underside 7 FIGS. 1 and 3 show, looking from the top 5 in the direction of the bottom 7 below the screw shaft 9, a clamping sleeve 16 with a radial internal thread of a known and therefore not described in detail screw.
  • the screw shaft 9 and the clamping sleeve 16 are matched to one another such that the thread of the screw 13 engages in functional position in the radial internal thread of the clamping sleeve 16, so that the screw terminal electrical conductors (not shown) are connected or connected.
  • elevations 17 are arranged (s. Fig. 1 . 3 and 4 ).
  • the elevations 17 extend from the screw feed opening 12 beginning over the entire length of the screw shaft 9, in particular FIG. 3 shows. Due to the radial extent of the elevations 17, the inner diameter of the screw shafts 9 is reduced. The radial extent of the elevations 17 and the screw head 15 are matched to one another such that the reduced inner diameter of the screw shaft 9 is smaller than the diameter of the screw head 15 (s. Fig. 3 and 4 ). Therefore, the screw head 15 exerts on the elevations 17, a radial compressive force, so that the screw head 15 is held frictionally.
  • the housing clearances 19 can be arranged directly between the adjacent screw shafts 9.
  • the housing clearances 19 are located outside of the arranged between the screw shafts 9 transition region 11.
  • the elevations 17 are arranged exclusively in the area of the housing clearances 19 in this embodiment. Therefore, the effect of the radial compressive forces of the screw head 15 on the elevations 17 only in a resilient deflection of the screw shaft walls into the housing clearances 19 into it.
