Abstract

L'invention concerne un dispositif de borne (3) comprenant : une borne (40) ; un boîtier (5) dans laquelle est formé un premier trou d'insertion (37a) dans lequel est inséré un fil électrique (90) pour la connexion électrique à la borne ; un ressort de verrouillage (50) qui connecte électriquement le fil électrique (90) et la borne (40) ; et un élément de pression (60) qui est pressé dans une direction de pressage. L'élément de pressage (60) a également une section évidée (63) qui est enfoncée dans une direction perpendiculaire qui est perpendiculaire à la direction de pressage. Lorsque le premier trou d'insertion (37a) et le ressort de verrouillage (50) sont visualisés de façon à faire face à la surface d'ouverture du premier trou d'insertion (37a), l'élément de pressage (60) est pressé dans la direction de pressage, déformant élastiquement le ressort de verrouillage (50) et réduisant ainsi la zone de la région du ressort de verrouillage (50) qui chevauche le premier trou d'insertion (37a). Le boîtier (5) comporte une partie de verrouillage (33) qui vient en prise avec la section évidée (63) lorsque l'élément de pressage (60) déforme élastiquement le ressort de verrouillage (50), verrouillant ainsi l'élément de pressage (60).
