Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a terminal block assembly, including an electrical clamping member, for application on the outside of the casing of household appliances in general.
  • washing machines, dish wash­ing machines and other like household electrical ap­pliances of a comparatively high electric power, must ne necessarily power supplied through three-pole electrical cables.
  • the task of the present in­vention is to overcome the above mentioned drawbacks, by providing a terminal block assembly, including a related electrical cable clamping member, which affords the possibility of arranging at least the power supply and earth electrical cables on an outside surface of the casing of the electrical appliance.
  • Another object of the present invention is to provide such a terminal block assembly which further includes a protection fuse.
  • a terminal block assembly including an electric cable clamping member, for application on an outside surface of the casing of a household electrical appliance, characterized in that said terminal block assembly essentially comprises a bearing base which bears, on a front face thereof, two power supply terminals and an earth or ground terminal, thereto correspond, on the reverse of said face, corresponding pairs of bladelike terminals, which can be coupled, by means of coupling members, to bias keys, said base, which is provided with a closure cover member, further supporting mechanical members for restrain­ing said cover member and mechanical members for anchoring said cover member to a wall of the casing of the household electrical appliance.
  • the terminal block assembly with electrical cable clamping member, for applica­tion on the outside of the casing of a household electrical appliance, according to the present in­vention, comprises a base 1 which has shaped side longitudinal profiles 2 and pivotably supports, at one end thereof, a box-like structure 3, adapted to operate as a closure cover member, and, possibly, also adapted to support a protecting fuse for break­ing the electrical circuit as the latter is elec­trically opened.
  • pairs of restraining tooth members 4, of the slanted surface type which are adapted to engage in corresponding cantilever strips 5 pro­vided on the side walls of the cover member.
  • This terminal pairs are enclosed between protecting side walls 10 and are separated by a middle vertical separating wall 11 where a connector 34 can be housed, with coupling biasing keys.
  • This connector member 34 can also be adapted to house a antinoise filter 35.
  • a further side electrical terminal 12 coupled to a plate 13 which, in turn, is electrically coupled to a underlying plate 14, provided for contacting with said household electrical appliance casing and also including a pair of bladelike electrical terminals 15.
  • the mentioned plates are provided with cross-­shape throuhgoing holes 16 therein there are screw engaged corresponding self-screwing screws 17 for anchoring the base to a wall 18 of the appliance.
  • At least three hook shaped resilient tabs 20 which project downward and are adapted to engage on the edges of the mentioned holes.
  • a strip 21 which, at one end, is affixed to one of the walls of said base and is provided, at an intermediate position thereof, with a bracket 22 holding a fuse 23, which, as said strip is rotated, will engage in the corresponding electrical contacts 7 and 7a.
  • a cross recess 25 so designed and arranged as to receive a power supply electrical cable 26 and perimetrically provided with a cylindri­cal ridge 27 including a central counterbore.
  • a rigid strip 28 cooperates, which is affixed to said base by means of a thread-like lug 29.
  • the mentioned rigid strip is provided, at one end thereof, with a cross slot 30 and, at the opposite end thereof, with an elongated throughgoing hole 31.
  • terminal block assembly thereinabove dis­sclosed is of the pre-wired type which greatly simplifies the household electrical appliance assemb­ling steps.
  • that same terminal block has the additional very important characteristics of comprising a housing for receiving a protection fuse which, in this manner, can be easily accessed and replaced.
  • the subject terminal block is adapted to house a coupling connector provided with biassing keys and specifically designed for receiving antinoise filters 35. Furthermore, the subject electrical terminal block affords the possibility of automatically opening the electric circuit as the cover member is opened.
