Der Klemmabschnitt einer Klemmfeder wird zum Teil auch als Klemmschenkel bezeichnet, der Anlageabschnitt auch als Anlageschenkel.The invention relates to a conductor terminal for clamping at least one electrical conductor, comprising at least one insulating housing and at least one contact insert, which has at least one clamping spring and at least one bus bar, wherein the clamping spring has a contact portion and a clamping portion formed for clamping the electrical conductor against the busbar, the clamping spring is connected directly or indirectly to the abutment portion at an abutting portion-side end of the clamping portion, wherein the clamping spring has at least one operating portion adjacent to the clamping portion, which is disposed at the end of the clamping portion facing away from the abutment portion side end.

Eine solche Leiteranschlussklemme ist aus der
Der Erfindung liegt die Aufgabe zugrunde, eine weitere zumindest ebenso vorteilhafte Leiteranschlussklemme anzugeben.The invention has for its object to provide a further at least equally advantageous conductor terminal.
Diese Aufgabe wird gelöst durch eine Leiteranschlussklemme zum Anklemmen wenigstens eines elektrischen Leiters, mit wenigstens einem Isolierstoffgehäuse und wenigstens einem Kontakteinsatz, der wenigstens eine Klemmfeder und wenigstens eine Stromschiene aufweist, wobei die Klemmfeder einen Anlageabschnitt und einen zum Klemmen des elektrischen Leiters gegen die Stromschiene ausgebildeten Klemmabschnitt aufweist, der an einem Anlageabschnittseitigen Ende des Klemmabschnitts unmittelbar oder mittelbar mit dem Anlageabschnitt verbunden ist, wobei die Klemmfeder wenigstens einen an den Klemmabschnitt angrenzenden Betätigungsabschnitt hat, der an dem dem Anlageabschnitt-seitigen Ende abgewandten Ende des Klemmabschnitts angeordnet ist, wobei der Betätigungsabschnitt als durch eine Druckkraft zu beaufschlagender Betätigungsabschnitt ausgebildet ist. Mittels der Druckkraft-Beaufschlagung des Betätigungsabschnitts kann eine zwischen der Stromschiene und dem Klemmabschnitt, insbesondere dessen Klemmkante, gebildete Klemmstelle geöffnet werden. Dies erlaubt das problemlose Einführen elektrischer Leiter, insbesondere feindrähtiger und mehrdrähtiger Leiter, sowie das Entfernen elektrischer Leiter aus der Leiteranschlussklemme.This object is achieved by a conductor connection terminal for clamping at least one electrical conductor, with at least one insulating material housing and at least one contact insert, which has at least one clamping spring and at least one bus bar, wherein the clamping spring has a contact section and a clamping section designed to clamp the electrical conductor against the busbar, which is connected directly or indirectly to the contact section at a contact section end of the clamping section, wherein the clamping spring has at least one operating section adjacent to the clamping section, which is arranged at the end of the clamping section facing away from the abutment section-side end, wherein the actuating section is designed as an actuating section to be acted upon by a pressing force.

This allows easy insertion of electrical conductors, in particular finely stranded and stranded conductors, as well as the removal of electrical conductors from the conductor terminal.
Durch die Druckkraft-Beaufschlagung des Betätigungsabschnitts, im Gegensatz zu einer Zugkraft-Beaufschlagung, lassen sich andere Bauformen und Ausführungsformen von Leiteranschlussklemmen realisieren. Ein weiterer Vorteil ist, dass der Betätigungsabschnitt vergleichsweise kurz ausgebildet sein kann, z.B. eine Länge von maximal 20 % der Länge des Klemmabschnitts aufweisen kann. Auf diese Weise ist die Klemmfeder trotz des von dem Klemmabschnitt abgehenden Betätigungsabschnitts vergleichsweise kompakt und lässt sich gut in kleinbauenden Isolierstoffgehäusen unterbringen.By applying pressure force to the actuating section, as opposed to applying a force to the traction, it is possible to realize other designs and embodiments of conductor connection terminals. Another advantage is that the actuating portion may be made comparatively short, e.g. may have a maximum length of 20% of the length of the clamping portion. In this way, the clamping spring is comparatively compact despite the outgoing from the clamping portion actuating portion and can be accommodated well in small-sized insulating housings.
Der Anlageabschnitt dient zur Anlage und zum Abstützen der Klemmfeder im Isolierstoffgehäuse. Der Anlageabschnitt liegt z.B. an einer Anlagefläche des Isolierstoffgehäuses an diesem an.The abutment section serves to abut and support the clamping spring in the insulating housing. The abutment portion is e.g. on a contact surface of the insulating material at this.
Die Klemmfeder kann z.B. aus Flachmaterial bestehen, z.B. aus einem Stück Metallblech, das entsprechend gebogen ist. Soweit in diesem Zusammenhang der Begriff der Länge oder Längsrichtung verwendet wird, bezieht sich dies auf diejenige Erstreckungsrichtung des Flachmaterials, die die größte Abmessung aufweist. Soweit der Begriff der Breite verwendet wird, handelt es sich um eine orthogonal zur Längsrichtung gerichtete Dimension des Flachmaterials. Als Dicke der Klemmfeder wird dabei die Materialdicke des Flachmaterials bezeichnet.The clamping spring may for example consist of flat material, for example of a piece of sheet metal, which is bent accordingly. As far as in this context the term length or longitudinal direction is used, this refers to the direction of extension of the flat material which has the largest dimension. As far as the term width is used, it is an orthogonal to the longitudinal direction dimension of the sheet. The thickness of the clamping spring while the material thickness of the sheet is called.
Gemäß einer vorteilhaften Weiterbildung der Erfindung weist die Leiteranschlussklemme folgende Merkmale auf:
- a) der Betätigungsabschnitt weist eine Beaufschlagungsfläche zur Beaufschlagung durch ein Betätigungselement auf,
- b) der Klemmabschnitt weist eine Klemmkante zum Klemmen des elektrischen Leiters gegen die Stromschiene auf,
- c) die Klemmfeder ist aus Flachmaterial mit auf entgegengesetzten Seiten des Flachmaterials gebildeten Hauptoberflächen ausgebildet, die die größten Oberflächen der Klemmfeder sind,
- d) die Beaufschlagungsfläche ist an der Hauptoberfläche angeordnet, an der die Klemmkante gebildet ist.

- b) the clamping portion has a clamping edge for clamping the electrical conductor against the busbar,
- c) the clamping spring is formed of flat material having main surfaces formed on opposite sides of the sheet, which are the largest surfaces of the clamping spring,
- d) the loading surface is arranged on the main surface on which the clamping edge is formed.
Dies erlaubt eine einfache und kompaktbauende Realisierung eines mit Druckkraft zu beaufschlagenden Betätigungsabschnitts einer Klemmfeder, insbesondere wenn der Betätigungsabschnitt - wie hier - an den am Anlageabschnitt-abgewandten Ende an den Klemmabschnitt angrenzt.This allows a simple and compact construction realization of a pressing force to be acted upon actuating portion of a clamping spring, in particular when the operating portion - as here - adjacent to the abutting at the abutment portion end to the clamping portion.
Gemäß einer vorteilhaften Weiterbildung der Erfindung weist der Betätigungsabschnitt eine konvexe Beaufschlagungsfläche zur Beaufschlagung durch ein Betätigungselement auf. Dies erlaubt eine einfache und kompaktbauende Realisierung eines mit Druckkraft zu beaufschlagenden Betätigungsabschnitts einer Klemmfeder, insbesondere wenn der Betätigungsabschnitt - wie hier - an den am Anlageabschnitt-abgewandten Ende an den Klemmabschnitt angrenzt.According to an advantageous embodiment of the invention, the actuating portion has a convex loading surface for application by an actuating element. This allows a simple and compact construction realization of a pressing force to be acted upon actuating portion of a clamping spring, in particular when the operating portion - as here - adjacent to the abutting at the abutment portion end to the clamping portion.
Das Betätigungselement kann ein externes Betätigungselement sein, das nicht Teil der Leiteranschlussklemme ist, z.B. ein Schraubendreher. Das Betätigungselement kann gemäß einer vorteilhaften Weiterbildung der Erfindung auch ein Teil der Leiteranschlussklemme sein, z.B. ein zumindest teilweise im Isolierstoffgehäuse angeordneter Betätigungshebel. Der Betätigungshebel kann schwimmend oder fest gelagert sein. Als Gegenlager für den Betätigungshebel können z.B. einer oder mehrere innere Bereiche des Isolierstoffgehäuses und/oder Bereiche der Klemmfeder und/oder der Stromschiene vorgesehen sein.The actuator may be an external actuator that is not Part of the conductor connection terminal is, eg a screwdriver. The actuating element may according to an advantageous development of the invention also be a part of the conductor connection terminal, for example an actuating lever arranged at least partially in the insulating housing. The operating lever may be floating or fixed. As an abutment for the actuating lever, for example, one or more inner regions of the insulating material and / or regions of the clamping spring and / or the busbar can be provided.
Ein weiterer Vorteil ist, dass bei einer Leiteranschlussklemme mit integriertem Betätigungselement, z.B. einem Betätigungshebel, dieses Betätigungselement hinsichtlich seiner Drehachse näher an der Klemmstelle, d.h. näher an der Stromschiene, angeordnet sein kann. Auch dies begünstigt die Realisierung einer besonders kompakt bauenden Leiteranschlussklemme.Another advantage is that in a conductor terminal with integrated actuator, e.g. an actuating lever, this actuator with respect to its axis of rotation closer to the nip, i. closer to the busbar, can be arranged. This also favors the realization of a particularly compact conductor terminal.
Gemäß einer vorteilhaften Weiterbildung der Erfindung steht der Betätigungsabschnitt gegenüber der Klemmkante der Klemmfeder in Erstreckungsrichtung des Klemmabschnitts hervor. Insbesondere kann vorgesehen sein, dass der Betätigungsabschnitt quer zur Klemmkante gegenüber der Klemmkante hervorsteht. Hierdurch lassen sich mechanisch günstige Kräfteverhältnisse realisieren, die zu geringen Betätigungskräften bei der Beaufschlagung des Betätigungsabschnitts führen. Ein weiterer Vorteil ist, dass eine Betätigung der Klemmfeder auf der Rückseite, d.h. der von Leitereinführungsöffnung abgewandten Seite, des Halterahmens möglich ist.According to an advantageous embodiment of the invention, the actuating portion protrudes from the clamping edge of the clamping spring in the extension direction of the clamping portion. In particular, it can be provided that the actuating portion protrudes transversely to the clamping edge with respect to the clamping edge. As a result, mechanically favorable balance of power can be realized, which lead to low actuation forces in the application of the actuating portion. Another advantage is that actuation of the clamping spring on the back, i. the side facing away from the conductor insertion opening side of the holding frame is possible.
Gemäß einer vorteilhaften Weiterbildung der Erfindung ist der Betätigungsabschnitt in Form von wenigstens zwei die Klemmkante der Klemmfeder zwischen sich aufnehmenden Betätigungsarmen ausgebildet, die von dem Klemmabschnitt abragen. Dies hat den Vorteil, dass eine mechanisch günstige, symmetrische Krafteinleitung der Druckkraft auf den Betätigungsabschnitt realisiert werden kann. Zudem begrenzen die Betätigungsarme die Klemmkante seitlich, sodass diese zugleich als Einführhilfe für einen elektrischen Leiter dienen können. So kann die Klemmfeder am Klemmabschnitt-seitigen Ende z.B. gabelartig mit zwei abstehenden Zinken geformt sein, die den Betätigungsabschnitt bzw. die Betätigungsarme bilden.According to an advantageous embodiment of the invention, the actuating portion is formed in the form of at least two clamping edge of the clamping spring between them receiving actuating arms which protrude from the clamping portion. This has the advantage that a mechanically favorable, symmetrical introduction of force of the pressure force can be realized on the actuating portion. In addition, the actuating arms limit the clamping edge laterally, so These can also serve as an insertion aid for an electrical conductor. Thus, the clamping spring on the clamping portion-side end, for example, be fork-shaped with two protruding teeth, which form the actuating portion and the actuating arms.
Gemäß einer vorteilhaften Weiterbildung der Erfindung ist im geschlossenen Zustand der Leiteranschlussklemme und ohne eingeführten Leiter ein Stromschienenabschnitt der Stromschiene zwischen den Betätigungsarmen angeordnet. Dies erlaubt eine platzsparende Anordnung der genannten Bauteile.According to an advantageous development of the invention, a busbar section of the busbar is arranged between the actuating arms in the closed state of the conductor terminal and without inserted conductor. This allows a space-saving arrangement of said components.
Gemäß einer vorteilhaften Weiterbildung der Erfindung nimmt die Breite der Klemmfeder vom Klemmabschnitt zum Betätigungsabschnitt hin zu. Dies hat den Vorteil, dass eine an sich schlanke Klemmfeder mit zugleich relativ breiter Klemmkante realisiert werden kann. Hiermit geht eine Materialersparnis bei zugleich günstigen elektrischen Kontaktierungseigenschaften einher. Es können damit auch große Leiterquerschnitte geklemmt werden.According to an advantageous development of the invention, the width of the clamping spring increases from the clamping section to the actuating section. This has the advantage that a slender clamping spring with at the same time a relatively wide clamping edge can be realized. This is accompanied by a saving of material at the same time favorable electrical contacting properties. It can also be used to clamp large conductor cross sections.
Die Klemmfeder kann hinsichtlich ihrer übrigen Formgebung je nach Anwendungsfall unterschiedlich ausgebildet sein. So kann die Klemmfeder z.B. zwischen dem Klemmabschnitt und dem Anlageabschnitt einen Verbindungsabschnitt aufweisen, der den Klemmabschnitt mit dem Anlageabschnitt verbindet. Der Verbindungsabschnitt kann z.B. als Verbindungssteg oder Federbogen ausgebildet sein. Insbesondere kann die Klemmfeder einen sich an den Anlageabschnitt anschließenden Federbogen und einen sich an den Federbogen anschließenden Klemmabschnitt aufweisen. Hieran schließt sich dann der Betätigungsabschnitt an. Der Federbogen kann z.B. eine Krümmung um etwa 180° (+/- 20°) aufweisen.The clamping spring can be designed differently with regard to their remaining shape depending on the application. Thus, the clamping spring may be e.g. between the clamping portion and the abutment portion having a connecting portion which connects the clamping portion with the abutment portion. The connecting portion may be e.g. be designed as a connecting web or spring bow. In particular, the clamping spring may have a subsequent to the contact portion spring bow and a subsequent to the spring bow clamping portion. This is then followed by the operation section. The spring bow may e.g. have a curvature of about 180 ° (+/- 20 °).
Gemäß einer vorteilhaften Weiterbildung der Erfindung erstreckt sich der Betätigungsabschnitt zu seinem Ende hin von der Wirkrichtung der am Klemmabschnitt wirkenden Federkraft der Klemmfeder weg. Dies erlaubt eine einfache und kompaktbauende Realisierung eines mit Druckkraft zu beaufschlagenden Betätigungsabschnitts einer Klemmfeder, insbesondere wenn der Betätigungsabschnitt - wie hier - an den am Anlageabschnitt-abgewandten Ende an den Klemmabschnitt angrenztAccording to an advantageous embodiment of the invention, the actuating portion extends towards its end by the effective direction of the force acting on the clamping portion spring force of the clamping spring away. This allows a simple and compact construction realization of an applied with compressive force operating portion of a clamping spring, in particular when the operating portion - as here - adjoins the clamping portion at the end remote from the abutment portion
Gemäß einer vorteilhaften Weiterbildung der Erfindung erstreckt sich der Betätigungsabschnitt von dem Klemmabschnitt vor zunächst im Wesentlichen in der gleichen Richtung wie der Klemmabschnitt und erstreckt sich im weiteren Verlauf von der Wirkrichtung der Federkraft des Klemmabschnitts fort. Diese Richtungsänderung in der Erstreckungsrichtung kann insbesondere in einem Abstand von der Klemmkante am Betätigungsabschnitt ausgebildet sein, z.B. derart, dass sich der Betätigungsabschnitt von dem Klemmabschnitt fort zunächst im Wesentlichen in der gleichen Richtung wie der Klemmabschnitt erstreckt und sich in einem Abstand von der Klemmkante erst von der Wirkrichtung der Federkraft des Klemmabschnitts fort erstreckt. Dort, wo sich der Betätigungsabschnitt von der Wirkrichtung der Federkraft des Klemmabschnitts fort erstreckt, kann er sich im Wesentlichen entgegengesetzt zur Wirkrichtung der Federkraft des Klemmabschnitts oder im Winkel dazu fort erstrecken.According to an advantageous embodiment of the invention, the actuating portion extends from the clamping portion before initially substantially in the same direction as the clamping portion and extends in the further course of the effective direction of the spring force of the clamping portion. This directional change in the direction of extension may be formed, in particular, at a distance from the clamping edge on the actuating portion, e.g. such that the actuating portion extends away from the clamping portion initially substantially in the same direction as the clamping portion and extends at a distance from the clamping edge only from the effective direction of the spring force of the clamping portion. Where the operating portion extends away from the effective direction of the spring force of the clamping portion, it may extend substantially opposite to the effective direction of the spring force of the clamping portion or at an angle thereto.
Gemäß einer vorteilhaften Weiterbildung der Erfindung weist der Kontakteinsatz wenigstens einen Halterahmen mit einer fensterartigen Öffnung auf, in der zumindest die Klemmfeder unter Vorspannung eingespannt ist. Dies hat den Vorteil, dass die Klemmfeder vormontiert mit dem Halterahmen bereitgestellt werden kann und dann als vormontierte Einheit in das Isolierstoffgehäuse eingesetzt werden kann. Zudem können relativ einfach und materialsparend ausgebildete Klemmfedern eingesetzt werden. Der Halterahmen kann als separates Bauteil oder in Baueinheit, z.B. einstückig, mit der Stromschiene ausgeführt sein. Alternativ kann auch die Stromschiene selbst als Halterahmen ausgebildet sein. Schließlich ist es auch möglich, separate Bauteile für die Klemmfeder, die Stromschiene und den Halterahmen zu realisieren. Dies erlaubt vielfältige Designmöglichkeiten bei der Auslegung der Leiteranschlussklemme.According to an advantageous embodiment of the invention, the contact insert on at least one holding frame with a window-like opening, in which at least the clamping spring is clamped under bias. This has the advantage that the clamping spring can be provided pre-assembled with the support frame and can then be used as a preassembled unit in the insulating material. In addition, relatively simple and material-saving trained clamping springs can be used. The holding frame can be designed as a separate component or in unit, for example in one piece, with the busbar. Alternatively, the busbar itself may be formed as a holding frame. Finally, it is also possible to realize separate components for the clamping spring, the busbar and the support frame. This allows a variety of design options in the design of the conductor terminal.
Gemäß einer vorteilhaften Weiterbildung der Erfindung ist zwischen der Klemmfeder, insbesondere deren Klemmabschnitt, und dem Halterahmen wenigstens ein Teil der Stromschiene eingespannt.According to an advantageous development of the invention, at least part of the busbar is clamped between the clamping spring, in particular its clamping section, and the holding frame.
Alternativ kann auch vorgesehen sein, sowohl bei einer Leiteranschlussklemme ohne Halterahmen als auch mit Halterahmen, dass die Stromschiene zwischen Stromschienenhalteabschnitten der Klemmfeder an dieser eingespannt ist, d.h. dass die Stromschiene zu einer vormontierten Einheit mit der Klemmfeder zusammengesetzt werden kann und diese vormontierte Einheit dann in das Isolierstoffgehäuse der Leiteranschlussklemme eingesetzt werden kann.Alternatively, it can also be provided, both in a conductor terminal without holding frame and with holding frame, that the busbar is clamped between busbar holding sections of the clamping spring at this, i. that the busbar can be assembled into a preassembled unit with the clamping spring and this preassembled unit can then be inserted into the insulating material of the conductor terminal.
