Definitions

the invention relates to a connection terminal, in particular for electronic boards, which can be contacted with the circuit board according to the preamble of Claim 1.
Terminals are used to create contact points between a Electronics board and externally introduced electrical lines.
the boards are provided with through holes at the corresponding points.
Known terminals are provided with a base on which bottom solderable pins are arranged. These terminals will be then inserted with the pins through the corresponding through holes and soldered from the opposite side of the board.
Screw clamp elements can be fixed. When tightening these screw clamps Occasionally high torsional and shear forces occur, which are static only due to the relative thin pins of the connector must be countered.
the object of the invention is to develop a more suitable to create simpler and statically stable contacting of the connection terminal.
the task is with a generic terminal solved according to the invention in that the terminal on the bottom a level Has pad and the board only on its top, on which the Terminal is solderable, has a corresponding soldering surface.
the terminal is in several parts and from one there is a solderable base element which can be soldered onto the soldering surface of the circuit board, and a terminal part is provided as an upper part, which with the Floor element can be connected via the same screw with which the connecting cable can be fixed to the connection terminal.
the upper part i.e. the actual terminal with open slots for cable entry provided, whereby the cable to be clamped in a safely contacting manner the clamping screw is held.
the slot wins through said slots Terminal a crown-shaped contour pointing upwards.
the terminal arrangement according to the invention is due to its multiple parts much easier to assemble. So the board is initially prepared with correspondingly large metallized areas. Then this is first of all Solder the bottom part of the connecting terminal without the further construction of the connection terminal interferes because it is not yet installed. Only when the soldered connection is made, the screw with which said The upper part of the connection clamp is fixed with the soldered connection cable Bottom part connected. This ensures both electrical and mechanical very secure connection.
An essential feature is that the metallized area on the board is only at the top of the same. I.e. that the mostly mechanical soldering of components from below the board, and the soldering of the terminal regardless of this on the top of the board is made. This is the process of soldering the components regardless of the soldering of the connection terminal, which is manufacturing technology is advantageous.
the drawing shows the entire terminal arrangement 10 together with one Detail which shows part of a circuit board 1.
the board is known to have Conductor paths 3, the through holes 4 for receiving at defined points and soldering of electronic components are provided. Points at a defined point the circuit board is metallized with one of the conductor paths Area 2, which is to be connected to the connecting terminal according to the invention. I.e. that this metallized area 2 on the board 1 already to the entire inventive terminal assembly belongs.
the connector has a connecting terminal base part 14, which has a solderable surface 15 on the base side with which the terminal base part 14 on the metallized area 2 of the circuit board 1 can be soldered on. It is also an upper connector part 13 provided which via the connecting screw 11 with the Terminal base part 14 is connectable.
the terminal screw 11 has the Double function, on the one hand this connection between the top and bottom part to make, and at the same time it holds that in the terminal upper part 13th introduced connection cable 12 fixed.
the upper terminal part 13 is with provided upward open cable insertion slots 16. Through this, the Connection cable 12 is held in a fixed position
