Description
ELECTRICAL CONNECTOR Filed Dec. 15, 1961 Inventor Frank. H. Edwards United States Patent 3,167,376 ELECTRICAL CONNECTOR Frank H. Edwards, Ancaster, Ontario, Canada, assignor to United-Carr Fastener Corporation, Boston, Mass, a corporation of Delaware Filed Dec. 15, 196i, Ser. No. 159,719 1 Claim. (Cl. 339-198) The present invention relates to an electrical connector and more particularly it relates to an improved electrical connector having identical clamp plates providing for quick, efiicient connection of electrical conductors.
Electrical connectors of the conventional type employing a simple screw connection require bending of the conductors to be connected for the most eflicient electrical connection. This is a laborious and time-consuming feature. In addition the conductor may slip from under the screw head of the terminal when the screw is being turned down to secure the conductor to the terminal. Such connectors are generally unsatisfactory although they re usually the least expensive of the many types of connectors. Another type of connector currently employed involves plastic caps having brass (or other suitable electrically conductive material) threaded inserts afiixed therein which connectors are adapted to receive electrical conductors in threaded relation. The latter type of connector, however, is relatively expensive to manufacture in that expensive screw machinery is required in the production of the threaded insert for the plastic caps. Additionally, there is the problem of assembly of the threaded insert and plastic cap and the difficulty of rigid connection therebetween. These plastic cap connectors, further, are not especially suited for mounting in multiterminal relation on a common base. They are most conveniently utilized when free of restraint since the conductors must be twisted to thread them into the cap and form the electrical connection therebetween.
In the preferred form of the present invention a multiterminal connector may be provided within a suitable insulating block, each of the terminals comprised of a pair of identical clamp plates, each pair of clamp plates adapted to receive one or more electrical conductors to form an electrical connection therebetween.
It is, accordingly, a general object of the present invention to provide an improved electrical connector having a pair of identical clamp plates in mating relation adapted to receive electrical conductors therebetween.
An additional object of the present invention is to provide an improved multi-terminal connector having cooperating clamp plates eifective to define spaced parallel conductor-receiving openings and having protruding portions each of which is effective in relation to the other.
A further object of the present invention resides in the provision of an improved electrical connector having a pair of mating plates wherein the electrical interconnection of two separate electrical conductors is realized by insertion of the conductors between the plates of the connector and urging the plates into secure electrical contact with the conductors.
An additional object of the present invention resides in the provision of an improved electrical connector having a pair of identical plates disposed in mating relation, said plates having mating conformations adapted to cooperatively receive electrical conductors.
Still a further object of the present invention is to provide an improved electrical connector having an insulating base and a pair of mating identical clamp plates, is economical to manufacture and that allows eificient and rapid connection of electrical conductors thereto.
An additional object of the present invention resides in the provision of an improved electrical connector wherein an efiicient electrical connection may be realized without the use of solder, tape or special tools.
The novel features which I believe to be characteristic of my invention are set forth with particularity in the appended claim. My invention itself, however, together with further objects and advantages thereof, will best be understood by reference to the following description taken in connection with the accompanying drawings, in which:
FIGURE 1 is a top plan view of a connector employing the terminals of the present invention;
FIGURE 2 is an elevation of the connector of FIG- URE l, partly in section;
FIGURE 3 is a side view, partly in section, taken along lines 33 of FIGURE 1; and
FIGURE 4 is an exploded view of one terminal of the connector.
Referring more particularly now to FIGURES l and 2 of the drawings, there is shown an insulating base of phenolic resin or the like, indicated generally at 10. A plurality of upstanding, spaced insulating barriers 12, 13 and 14 are integrally formed with the base it). The spaced insulating barriers 12, 13 and 14 are beneficial for several reasons including the provision of a greater insulated resistance path between the terminals located therebetween, and the provision of means to contain loose wires within the terminal area defined by the spaced barriers and to prevent said loose wires from inadvertently falling upon the adjacent terminal post and causing a direct short between adjacent terminals.
The spaces between said barriers, as noted above, generally define terminal receiving areas, indicated generally by the reference numerals 16 and 13. Each of the termi nal areas is provided with a pair of spaced openings 20 and 22, respectively. Each of the openings within the terminal spaces is comprised of a large diameter opening 24 and a smaller diameter opening 26 with the interface between the adjoining large and small openings defining a shoulder 28.
A pair of spaced openings 3i) and 32 are preferably provided adjacent the ends of the insulating block to conveniently provide a means for fastening the insulating block, and the terminals associated therewith, to a suitable terminal board.
An electrically conductive member 34 is provided in each of the terminal spaces 16 and 18. The member 34 establishes an electrically conductive path between each of the spaced pairs of openings 20 and 22. The member 34 is provided with depending portions 36 and 33 in mating spaced relation with the openings 20 and 22 in the terminal receiving spaces 16 and 18, respectively. Each of the depending portions 36 and 38 is internally threaded and adapted to threadedly receive threaded terminal posts 40 and 42, respectively.
As shown more clearly in FIGURE 3 of the drawings, the depending portions 36 and 38 of the member 34 are nonremovably aflixed within the openings 20 by the flaring portions 44 and 46, respectively, of the portions. On assembly the member 34 is placed on the terminal receiving area 16 with the depending portions 36 and 38 extending into the openings 26 of the insulating block 10. A suitable flaring tool is then inserted into the openings 20 from the bottom portion of the insulating block 10 through the large diameter openings 24 and urged into flaring contact with the bottom periphery of the depending portions 36 and 38, respectively. The bottom periphery of each of the depending portions 36 and 38, respectively, is accordingly flared outwardly and into abutting contact with the shoulder 28 at the interface of the large and small diameter openings 24 and 26, respectively. In this assembly the member 34 is prevented from moving is out of relation with the terminal receiving area and is nonremovably affixed thereto.
A pair of identically shaped electrically conductive clamp plates 54) and 52 are illustrated in FIGURE 4 of the drawings. In this illustrative form each of the clamp plates 5d and 52 is shaped to define a pair of grooves, identified generally on plate 5% as 54 and 56, respectively. An upstanding car 58 is provided at one end of one of the grooves to serve as a positive stop for the electrical conductor inserted therein when the plates 56 and 52 are in cooperative mating relation. The ear 5'3 pro-truding from each facing contour extends into juxtaposed relation with the mating clamp plate in overlapping relation to thereby prevent rotation of the clamp plates with respect to each other. Each of the grooves 54 and 56 is provided with a series or" serrations adapted to nonrernovably grasp the electrical lead when the plate 5% and 52 are urged into vice-like engagement with electrical leads (not shown) inserted therebetween. An opening 66 is provided in the central portion of each of the plates 5% and 52, respectively. The threaded terminal post 42 is inserted into and through each of the openings 6G in the plates 5@ and 52, respectively, and is threadedly engaged within the threaded internal portion of the depending portion 33 of the electrically conductive member 34. It can readily be seen that this method or" assembly or mounting of the plates provides a feature of adjustability thereto.
As shown more clearly in FIGURE 2, with the plates 5% and 52 in cooperative mating relation a pair of open conductor receiving spaces, indicated generally at 64 and 66, are defined. Said spaces 64 and 66 are adapted to receive electrical conductors (not shown) in electrically conducting relation with the respective plates 59 and 52. Each of the grooves 54 and 56 of each of the plates 59 and 52 are fiared at the wire receiving end to facilitate insertion of the conductors therein.
It can readily be seen that loosening of the threaded terminal post 42 will permit the upper plate 52 to be moved to greater spaced relation with respect to the lower plate 59, thus, allowing for easier insertion oi the electrical conductors therebetween. When the conductors are inserted into the wire receiving spaces 64 and 66, their inward movement is stopped upon coming into contact with the ear 53 present at the back terminal of each of the shafts. The threaded terminal post 42 is then screwed into the threaded internal portion of the depending portion 33 to urged the plates 56 and 52 into vicelike grasping relation with the electrical conductors therebetween. The conductors are prevented from being easily withdrawn from between the plates due to the vice grip on the conductors and due to the serrated portions 70 present in each of the grooves. The serrations 70 are in the form of upstanding barriers and are adapted to be urged into the electrical conductors, upon the application of suitable vice-like pressures to grasp the conductors tightly and prevent their withdrawal from the spaces 64 and as.
It can readily be appreciated that the clamp connector of the present invention is economical to manufacture and easy to use.
The clamp connector of the present invention consists, essentially, only of a pair of stamped plates. The clamp plates are identical in construction, each defining a generally sinuous outline to define one half of the plurality of interrupted wire receiving spaces presented by a cooperative mating pair of clamp plates. In should be observed that any number of wire receiving grooves may be provided in any plate; however, in the most conventional form there will be provision for but two conductors.
The connector of the present invention is simple to use. There is no requirement for complete removal of the terminal for connection of conductors thereto, as is shown in prior art. The threaded terminal post need only be loosened to permit separation of the mating clamp plates and 52 and to provide adequate separation for the insertion of conductors between said clamp plates. When the conductors are in place, the threaded terminal post is threaded into the threaded internal opening of the electrically conductive element to urge the mating clamp plates into closer relation and to define a vice-like gripping f the electrical conductors interposed therebetween. in this manner an electrical connection is presented between each of the electrical conductors and the mating plates.
Further advantages are apparent, for example, in that no special tools are required in the use of the connector described herein; no solder is required to complete the connection and no tape is necessary to wrap exposed conductors. A screwdriver is the only piece of equipment required for use of the connector.
While I have shown and described a specific embodiment of the present invention it will, of course, be understood that other modifications and alternative constructions maybe used without departing from the true spirit and scope of this invention. 1 therefore intend by the appended claim to cover all such modifications and alternative constructions as fall within their true spirit and scope.
' What I claim as new and desire to secure by Letters Patent of the United States is:
An improved electrical connector adapted to receive electrical conductors comprising:
an insulating base having a pair of spaced openings therein;
