  • a terminal block also known as a connection terminal or screw terminal, is an electrically insulated module which fastens together two or more electrical wires/cables, intended to be electrically connected together, and includes an insulating support and at least one component clamp to secure wires/cables.
  • contact is meant here and in the context of the present invention, an element made of electrically conductive material to allow the electric current to pass.
  • the invention can be implemented in any other application which requires a power connection of a large number of cables/wires. electrical connections between them in a junction zone.
  • One of the aircraft wiring operations consists of electrically connecting a large number of power cables/wires together.
  • This operation is usually carried out using a screw terminal block, fixed to the structure of the aircraft, and into which the plurality of cables/electric wires is inserted then fixed by tightening.
  • FIG. 1 An example of such an existing terminal block, generally designated by the reference 1, which is designed to connect two or more electrical cables 2 equipped with lugs 20 at their ends by a screw-nut system.
  • This terminal block 1 firstly comprises an electrically insulating support 10 in which terminal screws 11 are fixed which each form with a nut 12 a screw-nut system for tightening the lugs 20 fitted to the cables 2.
  • An electrically conductive washer 13, of corrugated washer, is provided for each screw-nut system.
  • An electrically conductive bar 14 is crossed by each terminal screw 11.
  • This bar 14 forms a support surface for the cable lugs 20 and thus constitutes a shunt electrical between the cables 2 to be electrically connected.
  • This plate 14 is optional and each screw 11 is electrically independent. Alternatively, the plate 14 may only extend over a portion of its length and electrically connect only a portion of the screws.

  • such a screw terminal block 1 has numerous major drawbacks.
  • the lugs 20 must be perfectly oriented to be threaded around the terminal screws 11 for a satisfactory electrical connection. Most of the time this involves an operator having to untwist the cables 2.
  • the overlength of the cables that is to say the additional length to the nominal dimension to compensate for variations in wiring, or conversely the underlength is difficult to manage for an operator at terminal block 1, due to the rigidity of the cables 2 which can be secured to several of them, upstream of the terminal block. This extra length is all the more penalizing for an operator when he has untwisted the cables 2.
  • the number of parts to manage (screws, nuts, washers, shunt bar, cover, umbrella part) for an operator in charge of assembly is significant with, in addition, a high risk of loss of parts which therefore induces a risk of injury foreign, or mechanical debris (FOD Anglo-Saxon acronym for “Foreign Object Damage”) which can cause damage, which we absolutely seek to avoid in the field of aeronautics.
  • the insulating support 10 is usually fixed on the ceiling side in the structure of an aircraft.
  • a screw terminal block requires not putting the cables under tension to avoid electrical risks for the operators in charge of the electrical connection. These risks cannot be completely ruled out during tests to verify proper operation.

  • connection module 3 shown comprises a single cavity 31 for an electrical cable termination 4, the conductive tube 38 being integral with an electrical connection bar or busbar B.
  • connection module in a support rail is done by a translation along the longitudinal axis X of the module, that is to say in the width direction of the rail, we can obviously envisage a translation in a different direction, in particular a translation in a direction orthogonal to the axis X, that is to say in the direction of the length of the rail.
