  • a conductor can be plugged into the plug-in opening on the housing and is locked in the plugged-in state in the housing in such a way that the electrical conductor is held mechanically in the housing and is also electrically contacted with the terminal device and above it with the printed circuit board.
  • Such a terminal device can, for example, be attached to contact openings in the printed circuit board via contact legs of contact elements and connected to the printed circuit board by soldering.
  • Conventional terminal devices are in the form of spring clamps or screw terminals. Electrical conductors are locked in place by means of a spring and electrically contacted via spring-loaded terminals. With screw terminals, electrical conductors are clamped via screw elements and electrically contacted via them.

  • a detent spring for locking an inserted electrical conductor is assigned to the insertion opening.
  • one from the DE 10 2010 037 518 A1 known terminal block has on the one hand a spring-loaded terminal and on the other hand a screw terminal.

  • a PE conductor can be plugged into the PE socket modules on one side and on the other side the PE socket modules are contacted via a resilient contact element with an electrically conductive bridge arranged on the frame.
  • More terminal devices are from WO 94/03941 A and the U.S. 2016/049737 A1 known.
  • the WO 94/03941 A discloses the preamble of independent claim 1. Desirable is a modular system that allows a user to combine different terminal devices, which may implement different connection technologies, namely spring-cage connection technology or screw connection technology, in any way on a printed circuit board. Conventional systems are usually limited to one connection technology. Using a different connection technology requires a comparatively extensive adaptation of interfaces.
  • the object of the present invention is to provide a modular system that allows the use of different connection technologies in a flexible manner.
  • a first terminal device is designed as a spring-loaded terminal and a second terminal device as a screw terminal, with the housing of the first terminal device and the housing of the second terminal device being measured along the width direction, have the same width, the housing of the first terminal device and the housing of the second terminal device being attachable to the printed circuit board with an underside, and the first terminal device and the second terminal device each having at least one electrical contact element with at least one protruding from the underside Have contact leg for electrical contact with the circuit board.
  • the modular system thus has a number of different terminal devices which can preferably be combined with one another in any modular manner.
  • first terminal devices implement spring force connection technology
  • second terminal devices provide screw connection technology.
  • each terminal device has a housing whose width corresponds to the housing of another terminal device that implements a different connection technology.
  • the terminal devices can be combined with one another in a modular manner.
  • a first terminal device or a second terminal device can thus be used at a mounting location on the printed circuit board, in order to make a desired connection technology available at this mounting location.
  • the side flanks, between which the connection side of the housing of a (first or second) terminal device extends, preferably extend parallel to one another.
  • the housings of the first terminal devices and the second terminal devices each have a basic shape in the form of a cuboid.
  • the housing of each terminal device has a plurality of plug-in openings that are lined up along the width direction and thus provide a row of plug-in openings on the connection side.
  • the same number of plug-in openings of the same dimensions for plugging in electrical conductors with the same cable cross-section can be arranged on a first terminal device and on an associated second terminal device. Conductors of the same type can thus be attached to the different terminal devices, although the terminal devices differ from one another in terms of their connection technology.
  • First terminal devices can thus differ from one another in the number of plug-in openings and in the dimensioning of the plug-in openings.
  • Different first terminal devices can be designed, for example, for inserting different conductors with different conductor cross sections.
  • a first terminal device can be designed for inserting electrical conductors with a comparatively large conductor cross section, for example 16 mm 2
  • another first terminal device for inserting electrical conductors with a comparatively small conductor cross section, for example 2.5 mm 2 or 4 mm 2 is formed.
  • a first terminal device which is designed for inserting electrical conductors with a specific (e.g. comparatively large) cable cross-section and has a specific number of plug-in openings for this purpose, can have a corresponding second terminal device, which has a corresponding number of correspondingly dimensioned plug-in openings for plugging in corresponding has electrical conductors and is the same in terms of its dimensions as the first terminal device.
  • the housing of the first terminal device and also the housing of the associated second terminal device each have an underside with which the respective housing can be attached to the printed circuit board.
  • the undersides of the housings of the first terminal device and the second terminal device can have the same dimensions here, so that the terminal devices occupy the same area on the printed circuit board when they are attached to the printed circuit board.
  • the housing of the first terminal device and the housing of the second terminal device can have the same height, measured along a height direction perpendicular to the connection side.
  • the housings of the terminal devices are therefore also the same in height.
  • the housings of the first terminal device and the housing of the second terminal device are preferably of the same size in terms of their external dimensions.
  • modular terminal devices are made available which have the same dimensions and in this way can be easily combined with one another on a printed circuit board.
  • the terminal devices are each attached to the printed circuit board via the underside of the housing and they are also electrically contacted with the printed circuit board.
  • each terminal device has an electrical contact element that forms one or more contact legs that protrude from the housing on the underside and can be brought into engagement with contact openings of the circuit board for electrical contact, for example to produce soldered connections with the circuit board. If the terminal devices are electrically contacted with the circuit board via such contact legs, the first terminal device and the second terminal device preferably have the same pattern of contact legs on the underside, which can be inserted into an associated pattern of contact openings on the circuit board.
  • the terminal devices can be attached to the printed circuit board in an interchangeable manner without the need to adapt the Printed circuit board, in particular attaching other holes to form contact openings on the circuit board is required.
  • the second terminal device implements screw terminal connection technology and for this purpose has a screw element which can be screwed into a screw cage, for example, to clamp an electrical conductor in the plug-in opening, in order in this way to clamp the electrical conductor in the screw cage.
  • the screw element can act, for example, on a section of the contact element in order to bring it into pressing contact with an electrical conductor inserted into the plug-in opening, so that the electrical conductor is mechanically connected in this way locked in the plug-in opening and is also electrically contacted with the terminal device.
  • the first terminal device has a spring element which is used to lock the electrical conductor in the housing when the electrical conductor is inserted into a plug-in opening of the housing.
  • the spring element has, for example, a clamping leg that can be adjusted elastically in order to mechanically lock and electrically contact a conductor inserted into the plug-in opening and also to release the conductor from the plug-in opening again.
  • the clamping limb is bent over, for example, to form a support limb of the spring element and can be elastically deformed relative to the support limb. Over The spring element is supported on the housing by the support leg and is thus held relative to the housing.
  • the first clamping device has an actuating element which a user can actuate in order in this way to act on the clamping leg of the spring element.
  • the clamping leg can be brought out of the area of the plug-in opening, for example, so that an electrical conductor can be inserted into the plug-in opening without great effort or a conductor inserted into the plug-in opening can be released again from the plug-in opening.
  • the clamping leg In the deflected position, the clamping leg at least largely frees the area of the plug-in opening. If the actuating element is not actuated, the clamping leg approaches a contact section of the contact element arranged in the housing, so that an electrical conductor inserted into the plug-in opening is pressed against the contact section under elastic pretension.
  • the spring element extends, for example, around a bearing section of the housing, with the support leg of the spring element being supported on the housing and the clamping leg pointing from the bearing section into the region of the plug-in opening.
  • the actuating element preferably encompasses the spring element in the area of the bearing section and extends for this purpose with an active section around the spring element in the area of the bearing section.
  • the active section can be brought into operative connection with the clamping leg by rotating the actuating element relative to the housing, in order to adjust it elastically and thereby move it out of the area of the plug-in opening , for example to insert an electrical conductor into the plug-in opening or to remove an inserted conductor from the plug-in opening.
  • the fact that the active section acts on the clamping leg directly in the region of the bearing section results in a favorable introduction of force into the spring element for adjusting the clamping leg in conjunction with the rotatable mounting of the actuating element.
  • the actuator can be operated by a user manually or using a tool in a simple, convenient manner, thereby deflecting the clamping leg and an electrical conductor in the To plug in the plug-in opening or to remove an inserted conductor from the plug-in opening. After actuation of the actuation element, the actuation element is then automatically moved back in the direction of its non-actuated position due to the elastic prestressing of the spring element.
  • a rotatable mounting of the actuating element on the housing is provided via the body.
  • the active section can extend along the width direction of the body in order to interact with the clamping leg of the spring element.
