Definitions

  • a modular device for forming electrical connections formed of a split, insulated central body with a conductive plate passing therethrough and a pair of complementary bodies each having a conductive strip and adapted to cooperate with the central body to electrically connect the conductive strips.
  • This invention relates to electrical connecting elements adapted to form a matrix for interconnecting various conductors.
  • a connecting element for electrical connections is generally called a bushing and usually has an elongated shape, being constructed to interconnect at least one electrical conductor at one of its extremities with at least another conductor at its other extremity, the electrical communication being permanently secured, inside said element, between these electrical conductors by means of conductive parts duly insulated from outside and from each other by the walls of the bushing and/or by insulating walls inside this latter.
  • Such bushings may be used alone or assembled together, for example, in strips. Numerous devices already exist to build these assemblies, allowing an easy access, on each side of the strip, to the terminals where the conductors have to be connected to on either side of the strip.
  • the present invention provides an improved type of bushing, i.e., a modular device for electrical connections, permitting the formation of strips comprising as many bushings as wanted assembled together, each of these bushings being essentially constituted by an insulating body provided with means for the connection with identical adjacent bodies, or the formation of actual plane matrices made of strips assembled together, comprising lines and columns containing as many bushings as necessary, said bushings being arranged together in such a manner that it is possible to take off any one of them without having to dismount or to displace the adjacent ones. It is also possible to insert a new bushing in the place of another one which has just been taken off, without having to remove any one of the next elements.
  • the present invention makes it possible to associate to each of the above-mentioned bodies, which will be hereafter called central bodies, one or two complementary bodies, facilitating the removal and connection of flexible conductors with the central bodies.
  • Such assemblies may be used in various cases: for example, it may be necessary to connect together the wiring arriving to the matrix with the wiring leaving it, the two sorts of conductors being either brought on one face only of the matrix, the other face being reserved for the bridges, i.e., the connections between terminals connecting together the different conductors, according to a predetermined scheme, or, in a more simple case, the two sorts of conductors being respectively connected on each side of the matrix, constituting thus simple passing-through circuits and leaving however the possibility to makebridges on one or the other face, or even on both faces of the matrix if necessary.
  • Each central body is composed of two half-bodies, the front one and the rear one, fixed together by pins, spigot joints, fasteners, or similar, each one corresponding to the face of the strip or of the matrix, which force bears the same name in said strip matrix; each central body is provided inside with a conductive member which passes through it lengthwise and is fixed on the one or the other or even on both half-bodies by spigot-joints or fasteners for example.
  • Each half-body terminates outwards by a recess or cavity sufficiently deep to allow the extremities of the central conductive member which is contained therein to be insulated from the outside. It is inside the said cavities that the extremity of the single or multiple conductive cable reaches the corresponding element, either directly or by means of a complementary body according to the invention.
  • the central body according to the invention offers an approximately square cross-section. It comprises in the vicinity of its middle section two bosses, placed on two of its opposite faces, and on its two other faces, recesses the shape and deepness of which correspond approximately to the shape and relief of the said bosses.
  • the central bodies are successively placed side by side, the even bodies being previously turned by a quarter turn around their longitudinal axiswith respect to the odd bodies.
  • the bosses of one family of bodies fit inside the recesses of the bodies of the other family, so that a simple lateral squeeze is sufficient to keep. the whole in place.
  • the fixing together of the two half-bodies could also be achieved through the cooperation between bosses conveniently placed on one of the half-bodies and recesses constituting for example clamps, corresponding to the said bosses, on the other half-body.
  • the central conductive member may comprise one or several openings in which fit in the working position, corresponding bosses of one or the other half-bodies.
  • the part of the front half-body bearing the boss fastening the central member must preferably be liable to support an elastic deformation of a sufficient amplitude to permit the disengagement of the said fastening boss.
  • the central body according to the invention is intended to give way to more than the one electrical path (that is to say when the said body receives on one side more than one coming electrical conductor, conductors to which correspond on the other side one or several bridges)
  • the central conductive member comprises itself as many metallic components as there are coming conductors, all the metallic components associated with their separating insulation walls placed between them are taken off in one whole as if it were a sole block; the elementary components are disassembled afterwards and taken apart from the insulating parts separating them.
  • the central bodies adjacent to the one which has been dismounted are still conveniently fastened on their three other sides.
  • Said strips or matrices may, over and above the central bodies, comprise lines and columns intended to make easier the assembly and the location of the bodies of the matrix.
  • These lines and columns may be constituted of elements, called location and assembling elements, having the same modulus as the active bodies but being simplified structures allowing, on the one hand, to place and hold an identification label and, on the other hand, to engage an assembling tool such as a rod, for example, which is threaded at its extremities.

  • a boss 14 on fore half-body 2 comes in an elastic clamp 24 formed in the extremity of the wall of rear half-body 1 adjacent to the one in which the clamp 23 is provided.
  • Boss 14 is provided with two slots 25 for abutting engagement with the wall 26 of the back of clamp 24.
  • the inclined plane 27 facilitates the fitting together of the two half-bodies the one into the other.
  • boss 22 does not reach the bottom of clamp 23, the recess 15 remaining free in its greater part.
  • the half-bodies l and 2 being symmetrical with respect to their common longitudinal axis, the two non visible sides of the said half-bodies are respectively identical to those which are facing them.
  • the bosses l4 and 22 are hollow in their middle only in order to lighten the part 2.
  • the recess 28 is intended to receive a boss, not shown, which is a part of the inner wall of the corresponding half-body 2.
  • the four lateral walls of the rear part of the fore halfbody 2 are rendered independent from each other by means of four longitudinal cuts 29 in order to free them for transverse flexibility making sure, thanks to the elasticity of the material which this body is made of, that the bosses penetrate in their respective recesses during the movement of engagement, or get out during the movement of disengagement.
  • the reference 30 indicates one of the central conductive components of a central body having two paths.
  • Two connecting plates 94 and 95 of the components are connected electrically.
  • the points 31 and 32 serve to embed the components in the intermediate insulating component not shown, separating the said conductive component from the symmetrical one placed on the opposite side. This disposition al lows rapid dismounting of the two components 30, integral the one with the other, on the one hand, and with the said insulating component on the other hand, these being possibly disassembled afterwards.
  • 33 are the four central conductive components of a central body having four paths.
  • members 33 are rendered integral together by means of intermediate insulating components so that they may be disconnected as a unit.

  • FIG. 9 shows the front part of the sleeve 152.
  • the square sectional shape of this front part allows it to slide inside the corresponding bushing, until the plate 154 engages bushing, the inner section of this bushing being also square and having slightly bigger dimensions than the front part.
  • the lower wall of this front part comprises a lower rail 156 constituting a bearing for the pin.
  • the upper wall has an upper rail 158 followed by a relief 160 for the notches 108.
  • the rail 158 is cut by the recess 162 forminga square hole in the upper wall.
