Definitions

  • the present invention relates to electrical connectors for connecting a first conductor to a second conductor.
  • Such connectors as known from US 2017/0054250 A1 and US 5,035,660 , are widely used for joining two conductors in low voltage, medium voltage and high voltage devices.
  • One type of mechanical connectors comprises two connecting parts on opposing sides of the connector.
  • An end of a first conductor, e.g. a cable, to be connected is inserted in one connecting part and fixed in place by one or more fastening bolts, e.g. shear bolts, that are tightened through threaded holes provided in the first connecting part.
  • the second conductor e.g. a metal pin or round, is received and fixed by the second connecting part to provide an electrical coupling between the two conductors.
  • the second connecting part typically comprises a moveable ring to be able to correctly position the ring with respect to the metal pin to be connected and furthermore provided with a screw adapted to clamp the second conductor to the connector.
  • the electrical connector according to claim 1 relates to an electrical connector for connecting a first conductor with a second conductor, comprising a first connecting part and a second connecting part adapted to slip over at least a first portion of the first connecting part; and wherein the first and second connecting parts each comprise a means configured to prevent a decoupling of the second connecting part from the first connecting part when the first and the second connecting part are in a first predetermined relative position to each other; and to allow a decoupling when the first and second connecting part are in a second predetermined relative position to each other.
  • relative position may also relate to a plurality of positions that satisfy the condition of preventing decoupling or allowing decoupling.
  • the decoupling between the parts according to the invention is limited to one predetermined relative position by the means provided in the first and second connecting part thereby reducing the risk of an unwanted decoupling.
  • the first portion of the first connecting part of the connector comprises towards its extremity a hollow right cylinder portion that is opened along its axis; wherein the cylinder can comprise towards its terminal end at least one protruding portion extending from the outer wall of the cylinder in the radial direction.
  • the open cylinder portion is adapted to receive conductors of various shapes and diameters, e.g. wires, cables, rods or pins.
  • the protruding portion on the terminal end provides a blocking means that will prevent the second connecting part from being decoupled when the first and the second connecting part are in the second predetermined relative position.
  • the cross section of the cylinder may essentially be V-shaped towards the inside of the cylinder.
  • the geometry of the cylinder is adapted to receive different sizes of conductors, which are positioned along the length of the V-shaped cylinder interior sidewalls and can effectively blocked against the interior sidewalls.
  • the second connecting part comprises an essentially circular ring shaped through-hole mating the outer radius of the cylinder and comprising at least one groove in its inner surface extending along the axis. The at least one groove will allow coupling and wanted decoupling when the first and the second connecting parts are in the second predetermined relative position.
  • the second connecting part can pass the blocking means and thereby be mounted on the first connecting part.
  • the at least one groove in the second predetermined position, can be aligned with the protrusion and/or extremities of the cylinder; and wherein in the first predetermined position, the at least one groove can be misaligned with the protrusion and/or extremities of the cylinder.
  • the assembly of the second connecting part with the first connecting part is rendered possible in the configuration of the second predetermined position; whereas the misalignment of the groove with the cylinder protrusion and/or with the extremities of the cylinder, i.e. in the first predetermined position, allows avoiding a decoupling of the first and the second connecting parts.
  • the opening angle of the hollow and open right cylinder may be 180° or less. Limiting the opening angle to 180° or less keeps the axis of the hollow right cylinder aligned with the axis of the circular ring shaped through-hole of the second connecting part in the first predetermined relative position which reduces the risk of an unwanted decoupling.
  • the second connecting part further comprises a positioning ensuring means for keeping the first and second connecting parts in the first predetermined position.
  • This positioning ensuring means forces the two connecting parts to remain in the first predetermined position relative to each other and thus cannot be decoupled involuntarily.
  • the positioning ensuring means comprise a screw positioned in a threaded through-hole extending essentially in the radial direction of the ring shaped wall of the second connecting part and ensuring the first predetermined position when the screw extends by a predetermined length into the inner volume of the ring shaped through-hole.
  • the screw is a simple realization of the positioning ensuring means to ensure that the first and second connecting part remain in the first predetermined relative position. With the same screw it is also possible to fix a conductor once the conductor is introduced into the V-shaped cylinder of the first connecting part and at the same
  • the screw axis and the opposing leg of the V-shaped cylinder form an angle that shall be smaller than 90° when the first and the second connecting parts are in the first predetermined relative position. Limiting the angle to less than 90° in the first predetermined relative position allows pushing a conductor placed in the V-shaped cylinder towards the bottom of the cylinder and enables a clamping contact between the conductor and the connector.
  • the first portion of the first connecting part can comprise a second right cylindrical portion at its second terminal end portion aligned with the hollow right cylindrical portion; and wherein the second cylindrical portion can have an outer surface mating the inner surface of the second connecting part over an angular range of more than 180° and can further comprise a flat portion, in particular for receiving the screw of the positioning ensuring means.
  • the second connecting part can be securely fixed to the first connecting part, thereby reducing the risk of losing the second connecting part.
  • the screw can be deformed inside the ring such that the portion of the screw inside the ring is larger than the threaded through-hole. As a result, the deformed screw is no longer unscrewable. Thus, the screw and the ring can no longer be lost.
  • the ring of the second connecting part can further comprise a second through-hole diametrically opposed to the threaded through-hole.
  • a means, such as a tool, for deforming the portion of the screw inside the ring can be easily introduced inside the second connecting part through this second hole.
  • Figure 1 shows a perspective view of the various elements forming a connector 1.
  • the connector 1 comprises a first connecting part 100 and a second connecting part 200 that are configured to be mechanically coupled together. According to the invention, the second connection part 200 can slip over the first connecting part 100.
  • the first connecting part 100 comprises a first portion 110 provided towards its extremity 112 with a hollow right, in particular, circular cylinder portion 114 that is opened along its axis A.
  • the cylinder 114 comprises towards its extremity 112 one protruding portion 116, or protrusion 116, extending from the outer wall 118 of the cylinder 114 outwardly in the radial direction R.
  • the cylinder 114 can also comprise more than one protruding portion 116.
  • the first portion110 of the first connecting part 100 further comprises a second area 130 provided with a second right cylindrical portion 134 at its second terminal end portion 113, adjacent the first cylindrical portion 114 and extending along the same axis A.
  • the second cylindrical portion 134 has a right circular portion 136 with the same radius as the first cylindrical portion 114 and extends over a larger angular range than the first cylindrical portion 114.
  • the second cylindrical portion 134 further comprises a flat portion 138.
  • the first connecting part 100 further comprises a second portion 140 at the opposing end 142 of the first connecting part 100.
  • the second portion 140 is provided with an opening 144 for receiving the extremity of an electrical conductor, e.g. a cable or a wire (not shown).
  • the electrical conductor can be fixed in the opening 144 by means of one or more bolts 146, 148, e.g. shear bolts, that can be tightened in threaded though-holes 150, 152 provided on an upper side of the second portion 140 of the first connecting part 100.
  • the inner side of the opening 144 may be provided with a structured surface 145 against which the electrical conductor can be pressed when the bolts 146, 148 are tightened.
  • the second connecting part 200 comprises a ring shaped through-hole 204 with an inner surface 202 mating the outer radius of the circular portions of the cylinders 114,134.
  • the inner surface 202 furthermore comprises two grooves 206, 208 extending along the axis C of the through-hole 204 and over the entire length L of the second connecting part 200.
  • the second connecting part 200 further comprises a screw 250 positioned in a threaded through-hole 252 extending in the radial direction of the ring shaped through-hole 204.
  • FIG 2 a cross-section of the first 100 and the second 200 connecting parts of the connector 1. is Elements with the same reference numeral already used in Figure 1 will not be described in detail again but reference is made to their description above.
  • the first connecting part 100 and the second connecting part 200 are in a relative position to each other in which the second connecting part 200 can be mount onto or removed from the first connecting part 100.
  • This relative position is called the second predetermined relative position according to the claims.
  • Figure 2 also illustrates, that the opening angle ⁇ of the hollow right cylinder 114 is less than 180°, as shown in the figure 1 .
  • Figure 2 further illustrates that the cylinder 114 has an essentially V-shaped cross section on the inner side with legs 122 and 124.
  • the geometry of the cylinder 114 is adapted to receive different sizes of conductor pins or rods (not shown).
  • the second connecting part 200 can be mount on the hollow cylinder 114 by misaligning the axis A of the open cylinder 114 and the axis C of the ring shaped through-hole 204. In this relative position, the circular shapes of the first connecting part 100 and the second connecting part 200 are not concentric.
  • the misalignment of the first connecting part 100 and the second connecting part 200 is rendered possible when the ring shaped through-hole 204 is positioned such that the axis D of its threaded through-hole 252 - and the screw 250 - is facing the protrusion's 116 of the cylinder 114. In this relative position, the extremities 122a, 124a of the legs 122, 124 of the V-shaped cylinder 114 can enter the grooves 206, 208 of the second connecting part 200.
  • the second connecting part 200 in the relative position between the first connecting part 100 and the second connecting part, also referred to as the second predetermined relative position, the second connecting part 200 can be moved over the protrusion 116 and then can slip over the first connecting part 100 along a direction parallel to the axis A and C.
  • Figures 3a and 3b illustrate the first connecting part 100 and the second connecting part 200 of the connector 1 in a further relative position, called the first predetermined relative position in the claims, corresponding to a mounted stage in which a decoupling of the two is prevented.
  • Elements with the same reference numeral already used in Figure 1 or 2 will not be described in detail again but reference is made to their description above.
  • Figure 3a is a three dimensional view of the connector 1 with the second connecting part 200 slip over the first portion 110 of the first connecting part 100.
  • Figure 3.b illustrates a cross-section of the first connecting part 100 and the second connecting part 200 in the same relative position.
  • the screw 250 serves as a positioning ensuring means once it is screwed into the threaded through-hole 252 so that its front side 254 enters into the ring shaped through-hole 204. It is therefore no longer possible to align the grooves 206, 208 with the extremities of the legs 122a and 124a.
  • the second connecting part 200 can be rotated around axis C with respect to the cylinder (illustrated by the double arrow 256) in an angular range ⁇ that is limited by the contact of the front of the screw 254 with one of the leg extremities 122a and 124a.
  • this entire angular range the axis C and A of the ring shaped through-hole 204 and the cylinder 114 remain aligned so that over this range ⁇ a decoupling is no longer possible.
  • this range corresponds to the possible first relative positions of the first and second connecting parts 100 and 200 to each other.
  • the figure 4 depicts the connector 1 in a configuration that can be used when the connector is not used, e.g. during shipment or storage. Elements with the same reference numeral already used in any one of figures 1 to 3 will not be described in detail again but reference is made to their description above.
  • the ring shaped through-hole 204 can be moved onto the second cylindrical portion 134 (see figure 1 ).
  • the screw 250 is then tightened and maintains the ring shaped through-hole 204 over the second right cylindrical portion 134 and does not move.
  • the second connecting part 200 is in a fixed position with respect to the first connecting part 100.
  • a conductor 2 has been inserted into the first portion 110 of the first connecting part 100.
  • the conductor 2 represented in figure 5a and 5b is for example a cylindrical rod or pin, typically made of copper or other suitable metallic materials.
  • the connector 1 can be used with different conductors as long as the conductor diameter d2 fits into the open space 260 between the inner surface 202 of the ring shaped through-hole 204 and the inner surface 117 of the first cylinder 114.

  • the angle ⁇ between the direction of the pressing force which is along the screw axis D and the opposing leg 124 of the V-shaped inner wall 117 of the cylinder 114 is smaller than 90° when the first 100 and the second 200 connecting parts are in the first predetermined relative position.
  • This condition can be satisfied by taking into account the opening angle ⁇ of the cylinder 114, the diameter 258 of the screw 250 and the slope ⁇ of the leg 124.

Thus, it is not needed to unscrew the screw out of inner volume 260 of the ring shaped through-hole 204. Thus for any conductor 2 the screw 250 will remain with its front portion 254 inside the ring shaped through-hole 204, so that the first predetermined relative position between the first connecting part 100 and the second connecting part 200 remains ensured and the second connecting part 200 cannot be removed from the first connecting part 100.
