Wichtige Merkmale der Erfindung bei der Anschlussanordnung für ein elektrisches Gerät sind, dass ein erster Isolierkörper in einer insbesondere durchgehenden Ausnehmung, insbesondere Öffnung, einer Gehäusewand des elektrischen Geräts angeordnet ist, insbesondere mit der Gehäusewand schraubverbunden ist,
wobei ein Kontaktmittel durch den ersten Isolierkörper durchgeführt ist und somit durch die Ausnehmung durchgeführt ist, wobei das Kontaktmittel von der Gehäusewand beabstandet ist, insbesondere mittels des ersten Isolierkörpers,

wobei der erste Isolierkörper Klauenabschnitte aufweist, welche in axialer Richtung, insbesondere also Schraubachsrichtung des Außengewindes, mit dem vom zweiten Isolierkörper überdeckten axialen Bereich überlappen,
wobei die Klauenabschnitte in Umfangsrichtung voneinander beabstandet sind,
wobei in Umfangsrichtung zwischen zwei benachbarten Klauenabschnitten ein Kabelschuh mit daran verbundenem Kabel angeordnet ist, insbesondere wobei der Kabelschuh zumindest den von den Klauenabschnitten überdeckten Radialabstandsbereich überdeckt.Important features of the invention in the connection arrangement for an electrical device are that a first insulating body is arranged in a particularly continuous recess, in particular opening, of a housing wall of the electrical device, in particular is screw-connected to the housing wall,

Das Kontaktmittel 1 ragt durch die Öffnung der Gehäusewand hindurch, in welche ein erster Isolierkörper 2 eingesetzt ist, der aus elektrisch isolierendem Material gefertigt ist. Das Kontaktmittel 1 ragt durch eine Ausnehmung des ersten Isolierkörpers durch und weist an seinem in den Außenbereich hervorragenden Endbereich ein Außengewinde auf.The contact means 1 protrudes through the opening of the housing wall, into which a first insulating body 2 is inserted, which is made of electrically insulating material. The contact means 1 protrudes through a recess in the first insulating body and has an external thread at its end region which projects into the outer region.

Der erste Isolierkörper 2 ist mit der Gehäusewand 5 schraubverbunden. Hierbei sind Schrauben 7 vom Innenraum des Geräts herkommend durch Bohrungen der Gehäusewand 5 hindurchgeführt und in den ersten Isolierkörper 2 eingeschraubt. Alternativ wäre aber auch der erste Isolierkörper 2 mit einem Gewinde versehbar und somit schraubverbindbar mit einer entsprechend geformten Berandung der Öffnung der Gehäusewand 5.The first insulating body 2 is screw-connected to the housing wall 5. Here, screws 7 coming from the interior of the device are passed through bores in the housing wall 5 and screwed into the first insulating body 2. Alternatively, however, would also be the first insulating body 2 can be provided with a thread and thus can be screw-connected with a correspondingly shaped edge of the opening of the housing wall 5.

Wie in den Figuren gezeigt, verschließen der erste Isolierkörper 2 und das von ihm aufgenommene Kontaktmittel 1 die Öffnung der Gehäusewand. Dabei ist das Kontaktmittel 1 mit dem ersten Isolierkörper 2 vorzugsweise dicht verbunden.As shown in the figures, the first insulating body 2 and the contact means 1 received by it close the opening of the housing wall. The contact means 1 is preferably tightly connected to the first insulating body 2.

Durch eine gestufte Ausführung der Öffnung, insbesondere des die Öffnung berandenden Randbereichs der Öffnung, ist eine Zentrierung und Ausrichtung des ersten Isolierkörpers 2 zur Gehäusewand 5 erreichbar.By means of a stepped design of the opening, in particular of the edge region of the opening bordering the opening, centering and alignment of the first insulating body 2 with respect to the housing wall 5 can be achieved.

Vorzugsweise ist das Kontaktmittel 1 eingepresst im ersten Isolierkörper 2, so dass eine dichte Verbindung zwischen Kontaktmittel 1 und erstem Isolierkörper 2 erreicht ist. In Weiterbildung ist auch eine Dichtung zwischen Kontaktmittel 1 und Isolierkörper vorsehbar. Ebenso ist auch eine Dichtung zwischen Gehäusewand 5 und erstem Isolierkörper anordenbar.The contact means 1 is preferably pressed into the first insulating body 2, so that a tight connection between the contact means 1 and the first insulating body 2 is achieved. In a further development, a seal between contact means 1 and insulating body can also be provided. A seal can also be arranged between the housing wall 5 and the first insulating body.

Wie in den Figuren gezeigt, weist das Kontaktmittel 1 an seinem von der Leiterplatte 6 abgewandten Endbereich einen stiftartigen Fortsatz auf, an dem ein Außengewinde eingearbeitet ist.As shown in the figures, the contact means 1 has at its end area facing away from the printed circuit board 6 a pin-like extension on which an external thread is incorporated.

Ein Gewindeeinsatz 9 ist in einem zweiten Isolierkörper 3 aufgenommen, wobei der Gewindeeinsatz 9 ein zu dem Außengewinde des Kontaktmittels 1 entsprechendes Innengewinde aufweist, mit welchem er aufgeschraubt ist auf das Außengewinde des Gewindeeinsatzes 9.A threaded insert 9 is received in a second insulating body 3, the threaded insert 9 having an internal thread corresponding to the external thread of the contact means 1, with which it is screwed onto the external thread of the threaded insert 9.

Der zweite Isolierkörper 3 ist dabei fest, insbesondere drehfest, mit dem Gewindeeinsatz 9 verbunden und weist an seiner äußeren Oberfläche ein Mitnahmeprofil auf, insbesondere einen Außensechskantbereich, so dass ein Werkzeug formschlüssig verbindbar ist und der zweite Isolierkörper 3 und somit der Gewindeeinsatz 9 drehbar ist.The second insulating body 3 is fixed, in particular non-rotatably, connected to the threaded insert 9 and has on its outer surface a driving profile, in particular an external hex area, so that a tool can be connected in a form-fitting manner and the second insulating body 3 and thus the threaded insert 9 can be rotated.

Dabei ist der Gewindeeinsatz 9 mit einer an seiner äußeren Oberfläche angeordneten Außenverzahnung in den zweiten Isolierkörper 3 eingeschraubt, wobei die Schraubverbindung vorzugsweise unlösbar ist, insbesondere also irreversibel. Alternativ ist der Gewindeeinsatz 9 auch ohne Außenverzahnung, sondern dübelartig oder stoffschlüssig, beispielsweise durch Kunststoffumspritzung, mit dem zweiten Isolierkörper 3 verbunden. In einer einfachen Ausgestaltung weist der Gewindeeinsatz 9 hierzu Erhebungen an seiner äußeren Oberfläche auf und ist mit dem Kunststoff umspritzt vorgesehen, wobei die Kunststoffumspritzung den zweiten Isolierkörper 3 bildet.The threaded insert 9 is screwed into the second insulating body 3 with an external toothing arranged on its outer surface, the Screw connection is preferably undetachable, in particular therefore irreversible. Alternatively, the threaded insert 9 is also connected to the second insulating body 3 without external toothing, but rather like a dowel or materially, for example by means of plastic extrusion coating. In a simple embodiment, the threaded insert 9 has elevations on its outer surface for this purpose and is provided with the plastic encapsulated, the plastic encapsulation forming the second insulating body 3.

Der Gewindeeinsatz 9 ist aus Metall gefertigt. Der erste Isolierkörper 2 und zweite Isolierkörper 3 ist aus Kunststoff gefertigt.The threaded insert 9 is made of metal. The first insulating body 2 and the second insulating body 3 are made of plastic.

Wie in den Figuren gezeigt, sind zwei Kabelschuhe, welche jeweils mit einem Kabel 8 verbunden sind, mit ihrer jeweils eine Öse aufweisenden Lasche auf den stiftartigen Fortsatz des Kontaktmittels 1 aufgesteckt und werden von dem zweiten Isolierkörper 3 mittels des Gewindeeinsatzes 9 gegen einen am Kontaktmittel 1 ausgeformten Absatz gedrückt Auf diese Weise ist ein sicherer elektrischer Kontakt zwischen den Kabelschuhen und dem Kontaktmittel 1 bewirkbar.As shown in the figures, two cable lugs, each of which is connected to a cable 8, are plugged with their tabs, each with an eyelet, onto the pin-like extension of the contact means 1 and are pressed against the contact means 1 by the second insulating body 3 by means of the threaded insert 9 molded paragraph pressed In this way, a secure electrical contact between the cable lugs and the contact means 1 can be effected.

Der jeweilige Kabelschuh ist an seiner von der Lasche beabstandeten Außenseite mit einer elektrischen Isolierung umgeben. Ebenso weist das mit dem Kabelschuh verbundene Kabel 8 einen elektrischen Leiter mit elektrischer Isolierung auf.The respective cable lug is surrounded by electrical insulation on its outside spaced from the tab. Likewise, the cable 8 connected to the cable lug has an electrical conductor with electrical insulation.

Somit ist der metallisch frei zugängliche Oberflächenabschnitt des Kabels 8 mit Kabelschuh in einem vom ersten Isolierkörper 2 und zweiten Isolierkörper 3 abgedeckten Raumbereich angeordnet.The surface section of the cable 8 with the cable lug, which is freely accessible in metal, is thus arranged in a spatial area covered by the first insulating body 2 and the second insulating body 3.

Dabei sind die Isolierkörper (2, 3) derart ausgeformt, dass der Zugang von außen nur für sehr schmale Objekte ermöglicht ist, insbesondere schmälere als die in den Figuren gezeigten Prüffingerspitzen 4. Die Prüffingerspitzen 4 simulieren einen menschlichen Finger gemäß Norm und sind aus Metall gefertigt.The insulating bodies (2, 3) are shaped in such a way that access from the outside is only possible for very narrow objects, in particular narrower than the test fingertips 4 shown in the figures. The test fingertips 4 simulate a human finger according to the norm and are made of metal .

Der erste Isolierkörper 2 weist Klauenabschnitte auf, die zur von der Leiterplatte 6 abgewandten Seite hervorragen, insbesondere also in axialer Richtung. Die Klauenabschnitte sind in Umfangsrichtung zur Gewindeachse voneinander jeweils beabstandet, insbesondere regelmäßig, und weisen den selben Mindestradialabstand zur Gewindeachse auf. Die Klauenabschnitte sind also auf demselben Radialabstand angeordnet und vorzugswiese jeweils gleichartig ausgeformt. In axialer Richtung erstrecken sich die Klauenabschnitte gleich weit.The first insulating body 2 has claw sections which protrude to the side facing away from the printed circuit board 6, in particular thus in the axial direction. The claw sections are each spaced apart from one another, in particular regularly, in the circumferential direction of the thread axis and have the same minimum radial distance Thread axis. The claw sections are thus arranged at the same radial distance and are preferably each of the same shape. The claw sections extend equally far in the axial direction.

Der zweite Isolierkörper 3 ist radial innerhalb des Mindestradialabstandes angeordnet. Der axial vom zweiten Isolierkörper 3 überdeckte Bereich überlappt mit dem von den Klauenabschnitten axial überdeckten Bereich.The second insulating body 3 is arranged radially within the minimum radial distance. The area axially covered by the second insulating body 3 overlaps the area axially covered by the claw sections.

Der zweite Isolierkörper 3 ist radial innerhalb der Klauenabschnitte angeordnet. Mittels des am zweiten Isolierkörper 3 ausgeformtem Mitnahmeprofil, vorzugsweise ein Sechskantprofil, ist der zweite Isolierkörper 3 mit der in ihm aufgenommenen und drehfest verbundenen Gewindebuchse 9 aufschraubbar auf das Außengewinde des Kontaktmittels 1.The second insulating body 3 is arranged radially within the claw sections. By means of the driving profile formed on the second insulating body 3, preferably a hexagonal profile, the second insulating body 3 can be screwed onto the external thread of the contact means 1 with the threaded bushing 9 accommodated therein and connected in a rotationally fixed manner.

In dem jeweiligen durch die in Umfangsrichtung vorgesehene Beabstandung der Klauenabschnitte ist jeweils ein Kabelschuh mit daran verbundenem Kabel einführbar und mit dem Kontaktstift verbindbar.A cable lug with a cable connected to it can be inserted into the respective spacing of the claw sections provided in the circumferential direction and connected to the contact pin.

Die Kabel sind also in Umfangsrichtung mittels der Klauenabschnitte beabstandet.The cables are therefore spaced apart in the circumferential direction by means of the claw sections.

Zur Herstellung einer unlösbaren Schraubverbindung zwischen zweitem Isolierkörper 3 und Gewindeeinsatz 9 ist ein Kunststoffteilchen als Kunststofffleck oder eine Kunststoff-Fleck-Beschichtung auf das Außengewinde des Gewindeeinsatzes 9 aufgebracht. Somit ist eine Verliersicherheit erreichbar, da der Kunststoff elastisch verformt wird und somit die Schraubverbindung verspannt.To produce a permanent screw connection between the second insulating body 3 and the threaded insert 9, a plastic particle as a plastic stain or a plastic stain coating is applied to the external thread of the threaded insert 9. This ensures security against loss, since the plastic is deformed elastically and thus tensions the screw connection.

Nach Anschrauben des Gewindeeinsatzes 9 durch Betätigung des zweiten Isolierkörpers über sein Mitnahmeprofil ist der Kabelschuh oder sind die Kabelschuhe angeschraubt und es ist eine Berührsicherheit gegen von außen kommende Gegenstände, wie auch Finger, erreicht.After the threaded insert 9 has been screwed on by actuating the second insulating body via its entrainment profile, the cable lug or the cable lugs are screwed on and there is safety against contact with objects coming from outside, such as fingers.
