- Such spring contacts are known in the field of terminals.
- Another field of application for such spring contacts are connectors.
- the connectors have mutually complementary and thus plug-compatible male and female elements. These plug elements and socket elements are plugged into one another to form a plug-in coupling, in order to conductively connect two electrical lines which are in turn electrically connected to the plug and socket contacts.
- the inventive spring contact in turn serves to realize the mechanical and electrical connection, ie the connection of the electrical conductor to the plug part or socket part.

- the disadvantage is the fact that a tool, namely a screwdriver is mandatory for the actuation of the actuator.
- contact elements with piercing contacts are known. Although these contact elements are connected without tools.
- piercing contacts allow only a one-time connection of the conductor, because when connecting the conductor of the insulating jacket of the conductor is damaged, namely pierced and beyond the conductor is damaged by the penetration of the piercing contact and undergoes a material weakening. Due to the uncontrolled damage of the insulating jacket and the equally uncontrolled weakening of the conductor cross-section, a conductor may only be connected once to a Piercin contact. If this contact connection is released, the conductor must be replaced. In contrast to the inventive spring contacts, piercing contacts are therefore not suitable for multiple contacting and decontacting of electrical conductors.
- the invention has for its object to design a spring contact described above so that the spring contact can be opened and closed again without the aid of tools.

Derartige Federkontakte sind auf dem Gebiet der Klemmen bekannt. Ein anderes Anwendungsgebiet für derartige Federkontakte sind Steckverbinder. Die Steckverbinder weisen zueinander komplementär ausgebildete und somit steckkompatible Stecker- und Buchsenelemente auf. Diese Steckerelemente und Buchsenelemente werden zur Ausbildung einer Steckkupplung ineinander gesteckt, um zwei mit den Stecker- und Buchsenkontakten ihrerseits elektrisch verbundene elektrische Leitungen leitungsmäßig miteinander zu verbinden. Der erfindungsmäßige Federkontakt dient seinerseits dazu, die mechanische und elektrische Verbindung, also den Anschluss des elektrischen Leiters an das Steckerteil oder Buchsenteil zu realisieren.Such spring contacts are known in the field of terminals. Another field of application for such spring contacts are connectors. The connectors have mutually complementary and thus plug-compatible male and female elements. These plug elements and socket elements are plugged into one another to form a plug-in coupling, in order to conductively connect two electrical lines which are in turn electrically connected to the plug and socket contacts. The inventive spring contact in turn serves to realize the mechanical and electrical connection, ie the connection of the electrical conductor to the plug part or socket part.

Der Erfindung liegt die Aufgabe zugrunde, einen eingangs beschriebenen Federkontakt so zu gestalten, dass der Federkontakt ohne Zuhilfenahme von Werkzeugen geöffnet und wieder verschlossen werden kann.The invention has for its object to design a spring contact described above so that the spring contact can be opened and closed again without the aid of tools.
Zur Lösung der Aufgabe ist nach dem Anspruch 1 vorgeschlagen, im Gehäuse ein Stellglied in Längsrichtung der Kontaktfeder verschiebbar anzuordnen. Zugleich liegt das Stellglied erfindungsgemäß an der Kontaktfeder an und ist mit einem Drehantrieb kinematisch gekoppelt. Durch das hin- und her bewegen des Stellglieds wird die Kontaktfeder damit die Kontaktstelle für den elektrischen Leiter geöffnet und wieder verschlossen. Die auf den Anspruch 1 zurückbezogenen Unteransprüche beinhalten teilweise vorteilhafte und teilweise für sich selbst erfinderische Weiterbildungen dieser Erfindung.To solve the problem is proposed according to claim 1, to arrange an actuator in the housing slidably in the longitudinal direction of the contact spring. At the same time, the actuator is according to the invention to the contact spring and is kinematically coupled to a rotary drive. By moving the actuator back and forth, the contact spring is thus opened the contact point for the electrical conductor and closed again. The back to the claim 1 dependent claims include partially advantageous and partially self-inventive developments of this invention.
Darüber hinaus ist am Gehäuse eine Stellhülse drehbar gelagert. Diese drehbar gelagerte Stellhülse dient als Drehantrieb für das Stellglied. Besonders einfach ist es, den Drehantrieb erfindungsgemäß mit Hilfe eines Innengewindes an der Stellhülse und eines nach Art einer Zahnstange wirkenden Außengewindes am Gehäuse zu realisieren.In addition, an adjusting sleeve is rotatably mounted on the housing. This rotatably mounted adjusting sleeve serves as a rotary drive for the actuator. It is particularly simple to realize the rotary drive according to the invention by means of an internal thread on the adjusting sleeve and acting on the type of a rack external thread on the housing.
In weiterer Ausgestaltung ist die Kontaktfeder winkelförmig ausgestaltet. Die winkelförmige Kontaktfeder weist einen Federarm und einen am Ende des Federarms angeformten und den Federarm somit zur Winkelform ergänzenden Kontaktarm auf. Der Kontaktarm ist seinerseits von einem Kontaktfenster durchsetzt, durch welches der Leiter zum Anschluss hindurch gesteckt werden kann.In a further embodiment, the contact spring is configured angular. The angle-shaped contact spring has a spring arm and an integrally formed at the end of the spring arm and the spring arm thus complementary to the angular contact arm. The contact arm in turn is penetrated by a contact window, through which the conductor can be inserted through to the connection.
Bei dieser Ausführungsform liegt das Stellglied an der Oberseite des Federarms an.In this embodiment, the actuator abuts the top of the spring arm.
In bevorzugter Ausgestaltung ist das Stellglied als sich in Querrichtung zur Kontaktfeder erstreckende Stellleiste ausgestaltet. Die Leiste hat den Vorteil, dass sie den jeweiligen Federschenkel, also den Klemmschenkel oder den Federarm über ihre bzw. seine gesamte Breite beaufschlagt und so eine besonders gute Kraftübertragung gewährleistet.In a preferred embodiment, the actuator is designed as extending in the transverse direction of the contact spring actuating bar. The bar has the advantage that it acts on the respective spring leg, so the clamping leg or the spring arm over its or its entire width, thus ensuring a particularly good power transmission.
In weiterer vorteilhafter Ausgestaltung weist die Stellleiste eine Stellfläche auf, welche die Kontaktfeder, insbesondere den Federarm der Kontaktfeder in einem Winkel von 45 Grad beaufschlagt.In a further advantageous embodiment, the adjusting bar on a footprint, which acts on the contact spring, in particular the spring arm of the contact spring at an angle of 45 degrees.
In weiterer Ausgestaltung ist das Stellglied an der Unterseite des Klemmschenkels der Kontaktfeder angeordnet. Das Kontaktelement ist dabei nach Art eines Nockens oder wiederum als Stellleiste ausgestaltet, um den Klemmschenkel der Kontaktfeder nach oben oder nach unten senkrecht zur Mittellängsrichtung der Kontaktfeder zu bewegen. Hierdurch wird die Kontaktstelle am Ende der Kontaktfeder geöffnet oder geschlossen.In a further embodiment, the actuator is arranged on the underside of the clamping leg of the contact spring. The contact element is designed in the manner of a cam or in turn as a control bar to the clamping leg of the contact spring up or down perpendicular to the central longitudinal direction of the contact spring to move. As a result, the contact point is opened or closed at the end of the contact spring.
Zur Realisierung eines mehrpoligen Federkontakts ist in vorteilhafter Ausgestaltung vorgeschlagen, mehrere Kontaktfedern nebeneinander anzuordnen und eine der Anzahl der Kontaktfedern entsprechende Anzahl von Stellgliedern, insbesondere Stellleisten vorzusehen. Diese Stellglieder oder Stellleisten sind in bevorzugter Ausgestaltung in Längsrichtung der Kontaktfedern gestaffelt nebeneinander angeordnet, um die Kontaktfedern nacheinander öffnen oder schließen zu können.To realize a multi-pole spring contact is proposed in an advantageous embodiment, to arrange a plurality of contact springs side by side and provide a number of contact springs corresponding number of actuators, in particular control strips. These actuators or adjusting strips are staggered in a preferred embodiment in the longitudinal direction of the contact springs arranged side by side to open the contact springs successively or close.
In weiterer bevorzugter Ausgestaltung bilden ein Außengewinde am Gehäuse und ein Innengewinde an der Stellhülse ein Drehschubgelenk als Antrieb für das Stellglied. Vorteilhaft ist am Dreh-Schubgelenk bzw. an den als Dreh-Schubgelenk wirksamen Gewinden einen Anschlag vorzusehen, welcher das Gewinde in der maximalen Öffnungsstellung der Kontaktfeder festlegt, um dem Bediener diese Öffnungsposition gleichsam anzuzeigen und so das Anschließen des elektrischen Leiters zu erleichtern. Ferner kann eine Verriegelung des Gewindes im Montageendzustand vorgesehen sein, um ein ungewolltes Öffnen des Federkontakts bei angeschlossenem elektrischen Leiter zu verhindern.In a further preferred embodiment form an external thread on the housing and an internal thread on the adjusting sleeve a rotary push joint as a drive for the actuator. It is advantageous to provide a stop on the rotary sliding joint or on the threads acting as a rotary sliding joint which fixes the thread in the maximum open position of the contact spring in order to indicate to the operator this opening position and thus facilitate the connection of the electrical conductor. Further, a locking of the thread may be provided in the final assembled state, to prevent accidental opening of the spring contact with connected electrical conductor.
Der Vollständigkeit halber sei erwähnt, dass das Dreh-Schubgelenk auch bajonetteverschlussartig oder ratschenverschlussartig ausgestaltet sein kann.For completeness, it should be mentioned that the rotary sliding joint can also be configured bayonet-like or ratchet-like.
