Definitions

  • the invention relates to a current-carrying profile connector with plug-in contacts and an insulating material housing, the receiving chambers for receiving a respective plug-in contact, conductor entry openings on a first end face of the insulating material housing, which open into each receiving chamber, and plug-in openings on a second end face of the insulating material housing, which is the first end face diametrically opposite and provides access to a respective receiving chamber.
  • the plug-in contacts On the side facing a conductor entry opening, the plug-in contacts have a spring connection contact with a clamping spring for connecting an electrical conductor and on the side facing a plug-in opening a fork contact formed from at least one pair of spring arms with two opposing spring arms or a blade contact formed from a contact tab protruding in the insertion direction.
  • the invention further relates to a current carrying arrangement with a plurality of current carrying profiles which have a carrier profile with a base surface, webs extending parallel to one another on the base surface and grooves and electrical conductors in such grooves bounded by a pair of webs, and with the above-mentioned current carrying profile Connectors.
  • busbar systems with current-carrying profiles which have a comb-like cross-section with webs and grooves formed by them and electrical conductors received in the grooves.
  • these electrical conductors are received in the grooves, for example on the side walls of the webs, and can be connected to a tap connector electrically conductive contact is made with contacts projecting into the grooves.
  • the current-carrying profiles usually have a carrier profile made of plastic material that is installed in a metal trough. They have a relatively large extension length. With the usual thermal load, the electrical conductors made of metal, the metal trough and the support profile made of plastic expand differently.
  • EP 1 284 033 B1 shows a current carrying profile with a wire holding element with grooves in which electrical wires are received.
  • the wire holding elements have projections at their ends which, when two wire holding elements are brought together, overlap one another.
  • the projections in this case form a composite channel for the wire in the transition area between two wire holding elements and allow, for example, temperature-related length compensation of the wire holding elements to one another.
  • connection unit for a light band is known.
  • connection unit for a light band is known.
  • electrical connector with a spring-loaded terminal connection for an electrical conductor is known.
  • the plug contacts be accommodated in a respective receiving chamber so as to be displaceable in a plug-in direction extending from the first end to the second end of the insulating material housing.
  • the plug contacts have a stop between the clamping spring of the spring connection contact and the fork or blade contact for the contact of an electrical conductor clamped to the spring connection contact, the clamping spring pointing towards the stop and inclined with respect to the plugging direction.
  • the electrical connection of electrical conductors of current carrying profiles arranged one behind the other in an alignment is made with such current carrying profile connectors.
  • the electrical conductors of the current-carrying profiles can then each be inserted into a conductor entry opening and clamped to the spring connection contacts there.
  • Two such current-carrying profile connectors can be plugged together at their plug-in openings, a blade contact of a first current-carrying profile connector interacting with a fork contact of a second current-carrying profile connector.
  • a current-carrying profile connector does not necessarily have to have the same type of plug-in contacts as either only blade contacts or only fork contacts. Different types of plug contacts can also be present in a mixed manner in a current-carrying profile connector, such as blade contacts and fork contacts.
  • the plug contacts are arranged displaceably on a respective receiving chamber of the insulating material housing, they can move in their plugging direction with a different length expansion of the clamped-on electrical conductor and the carrier profile. Since two current-carrying profile connectors are plugged into one another with their plug-in opening and a sliding knife-fork contact is provided there, the knife contact can move relative to the fork contact during such a movement without the electrically conductive connection between the knife and fork contact being impaired becomes.
  • the relative movement of a connector when the clamped electrical conductor extends in length to the stationary insulating material housing while ensuring a spring clamp contact resting against the clamped electrical conductor is achieved in that the electrical conductor abuts the stop of the plug contact with its end face and is fixed in position by the clamping spring Plug contact is clamped.
  • the electrical conductor of the current-carrying profile clamped to a plug contact is prevented from moving relative to the plug contact on one side by the stop and on the other side by the clamping spring.
  • a sliding movement is still possible due to the pairing of a fork contact with a blade contact of the plug-in current-carrying profile connector in order to ensure the length compensation in this way.
  • the knife contact and / or the fork contact can have a surface coating, at least on the contact surfaces, which ensures an even better sliding movement with constant contact resistance.
  • a surface coating can be provided by a noble metal coating, e.g. can be realized by gold plating, by silver coating or the like.
  • the plug contacts can be formed in one piece from a sheet metal part and have a bottom surface and side walls protruding from the opposite sides of the bottom surface. A ladder guide tunnel is provided by these side walls, which are spaced apart from one another and project from the floor surface in the same direction.
  • the plug contact has at least one clamping spring, each is released from a side wall.
  • the side wall can be cut or punched free from the base plate in the area of the clamping spring and the side wall can be separated transversely to the plane of the base surface.
  • Such a clamping spring formed integrally with the side wall and connected to it can then be bent out of the plane of the side wall in the direction of the opposite side wall. But it is also conceivable that a separate clamping spring is connected to a side wall, for example by soldering, welding, caulking or other joining.
  • Such a plug contact is very simple and has a stable and compact structure due to the protruding side walls.
  • a flap of material can protrude from the base plate to form a stop.
  • This material flap can be arranged in a space between the opposing side walls.
  • the tunnel for inserting an electrical conductor is thus delimited laterally by the two side walls, from below by the base plate and in the insertion direction by the material flap.
  • An electrical conductor of the current-carrying profile introduced into the conductor-routing tunnel between the side walls can then be routed to the material flap in order to rest there.
  • the electrical conductor is clamped to the plug contact by the clamping spring protruding from the side wall and not only contacted in an electrically conductive manner, but also held in a fixed position on the plug contact.
  • the side walls can be aligned obliquely to one another at the transition to the fork or knife contact.
  • the connector is tapered further in the plug-in direction of the spring connection contact.
  • This area formed by the mutually inclined side walls is preferably located in the area in which the stop is formed.
  • the side wall sections which are aligned obliquely to one another can form the spring arms of a fork contact in a section separated from the base plate.
  • the spring arms of the fork contact thus connect to the side walls of the plug contact and are held in a stable manner by the one-piece connection. In addition, a sufficiently large current cross-section is ensured in this way.
  • the pair of spring arms can then have a contact area at the spring arm ends remote from the spring connection contact, to which insertion sections bent away from one another are connected.
  • An insertion funnel is thus provided for inserting a knife contact into the fork contact and a contact area adjoining the inclined insertion sections with a small contact surface is realized. In this way, the contact pressure of the fork contacts is concentrated on this contact area with a reduced surface and in this way the surface pressure is increased and the contact resistance is reduced.
  • the side wall sections aligned obliquely to one another can merge into contact lugs which run next to one another, extend parallel to one another and form a blade contact. In this way, too, a direct current transmission is achieved via the side wall sections into the blade contact with the largest possible current cross-section and a stable structure.
  • the contact lugs running next to one another which preferably rest against one another, reduce the risk of the blade contacts bending.
  • the increased knife thickness is also advantageous with regard to the contact forces that can be achieved on the fork contacts, since they therefore do not require any pretensioning.
  • a ground contact can be slidably plugged into the plug contact and protrude from the plug contact.
  • This embodiment is in principle independent of the specific design of current-carrying profile connectors.
  • grounding contact Because a separate grounding contact is slidably and thus slidably plugged into a plug-in contact, the grounding contact can remain connected in a fixed position to the grounding potential of the metal trough, for example, even if the carrier profile is located or move the electrical conductors built into it. Due to the sliding plug contact of the earthing contact on a plug contact that is used to connect two current-carrying profiles, movement of the connector does not affect the fixing of the earth contact, since these are slidably plugged into one another.
  • the ground contact can have a socket contact into which the contact tab of a connector described above is inserted.
  • This contact lug of the connector can also be connected to a fork contact of a complementary connector in order to provide continuous wiring and at the same time an earth connection to protective earth (PE).
  • PE protective earth
  • a current-carrying profile connector is plugged into each of the end faces of two carrier profiles arranged one behind the other in an alignment.
  • the electrical conductors of the support profile protruding from the end face are each clamped to a spring connection contact of a plug-in contact of the current-carrying profile connector.
  • the electrical conductor strikes the stop of the plug contact and is clamped to the plug contact with the clamping spring.
  • the current-carrying profile connectors plugged into the adjacent end faces of the two carrier profiles interlock.
  • a blade contact of a plug contact of a current-carrying profile connector is slidably contacted with a fork contact of a plug-in contact of the other current-carrying profile connector.
  • two carrier profiles arranged one behind the other in alignment are connected by a pair of complementary current-carrying profile connectors which are each plugged into one end face of the two carrier profiles adjacent to one another.
  • the electrical conductors protruding from the carrier profiles are inserted into the conductor entry openings of the current-carrying profile connector in order to be clamped with a spring connection contact.
  • the plug contacts of the complementary current-carrying profile connector can move move relative to each other, the knife and fork contact arrangement ensuring a sliding contact, which can be linearly displaced in the plug-in direction, of the two complementary current-carrying profile connectors and thus of the carrier profiles that are aligned one behind the other.
  • a first current-carrying profile connector can be plugged into an end face of a carrier rail. This first current guiding profile connector is then plugged together with a second complementary current guiding profile connector by engaging in one another in the area of their plug-in openings. A blade contact of a plug-in contact of one of these current-carrying profile connectors dips into a fork contact of a plug-in contact of the other current-carrying profile connector. In this way, a sliding contact, which is displaceable in the plugging direction, of the two plug contacts connected to one another is ensured.
  • not only two carrier profiles arranged one behind the other can be connected to one another in an electrically conductive manner.
  • An electrical tap or an electrical supply line for energy or data can also be provided on one end face.
  • electrical connection lines can be inserted into conductor entry openings of the second current-carrying profile connector and each clamped to a spring connection contact of a plug contact of the second current-carrying profile connector.
  • the conductor entry openings of the current-carrying profile connector can therefore not only be used to clamp the electrical conductors of the carrier profiles. They are equally suitable for connecting electrical connection cables that are independent of the carrier profiles. This can be rigid or flexible, multi-wire electrical connection lines.
  • the insulating material housing of the current-carrying profile connector can have an outer contour that is matched to the front side contour of the front sides of the carrier rail and can be inserted flush into the front side contour. In this way, the current-carrying profile connector is fixed in position on the area of the end face of the carrier profile and a relative movement of the current-carrying profile connector relative to the carrier profile is prevented or at least greatly restricted.
  • the front side contour of the carrier profile and the outer contour of the current-carrying profile connector can have locking elements for locking the current-carrying profile connector on the carrier profile. In this way, it is still possible to lock the current-carrying profile connector on the carrier profile after it has been plugged onto the end face of the carrier profile and to secure it from being pulled out. This locking can be so strong that the current-carrying profile connector rests precisely against the carrier profile and is held firmly on the carrier profile by means of a form fit.
  • Figure 1 shows a perspective view of two complementary current-carrying profile connectors 1a, 1b, each of which has an insulating housing 2a, 2b.
  • insulating material housing 2a, 2b On a first end face 3 of the insulating material housing 2a, 2b, conductor entry openings 4 are made, which lead into receiving chambers for plug contacts.
  • the insulating material housings 2a, 2b have plug-in openings 6 on a second end face 5, which is diametrically opposite the first end face 3, which likewise provide access for a respective receiving chamber.
  • the insulating material housings 2a, 2b are contoured on their second end face 5 and the plug area surrounding this second end face 5 so that the complementary current-carrying profile connectors 1a, 1b can be plugged into one another.
  • Figure 2 shows a perspective partial sectional view of a power supply arrangement with a power supply profile 7, which is formed from a support profile 8 and electrical conductors 9 built into the support profile.
  • the carrier profile 8 has a number of webs 10 which extend parallel to one another and each delimit a groove 11 for receiving an electrical conductor 9. It becomes clear that alternating grooves with different depths are provided, so that the electrical conductors 9 are arranged on two height levels.
  • the electrical conductors 9 protrude from the end faces of the carrier profile 8 in order to be contacted in an electrically conductive manner.
  • the carrier profile 8 On the front side, the carrier profile 8 has a platform 12 for supporting a current-carrying profile connector 1a, 1b.
  • the current guiding profile connector 1 a, 1 b is plugged with its first end face 3 onto the end face of the current guiding profile 7.
  • the plug-in direction S is sketched with an arrow.
  • the electrical conductors 9 of the current-carrying profile 7 dip into respectively assigned conductor entry openings 4 of the current-carrying profile connector 1b in order to connect to a non-visible conductor connection contact in the interior.
  • Figure 3 shows the diametrically opposite end face of the carrier profile 7 from FIG. 2. There, too, the electrical conductors 9 protrude from the carrier profile 8 at two levels.
  • a current-carrying profile connector can also be installed on this end face 1a with its end face 3 having the conductor entry openings 4 and resting on the platform 12.
  • the contour of the current-carrying profile connectors 1a, 1b in the area of the conductor entry openings 4 or the first end face 3 is adapted to the current-carrying profile 8 so that the current-carrying profile connectors 1a, 1b are pushed onto the platform 12 with their side walls in order to be positioned in the correct position in relation to the electrical conductors 9 and the associated conductor insertion openings 4 in this way.
  • the platform 12 has lateral, vertically protruding side walls, the side walls engaging in recesses on the respective current carrying profile connector 1a, 1b when the current-carrying profile connector 1a, 1b is plugged on.
  • plug-in openings 6 on the second end face 5 of the current-carrying profile connectors 1a, 1b enable access to plug-in contacts 13 which are accommodated in the interior of the current-carrying profile connectors 1a, 1b in respective receiving chambers. In this way, an electrically conductive contact can be made between a pair of plug contacts 13 of the first and second current-carrying profile connector 1a, 1b when they are plugged into one another.
  • Figure 4 shows a plan view of a section of a power supply arrangement with the two power supply profile connectors 1a, 1b plugged into one another.
  • the current-carrying profile connectors 1a, 1b have a two-part insulating material housing 2a, 2b, each of which has a base body 14 and a cover part 15.
  • the conductor entry openings 4 are made in the cover part 15 and each lead to a receiving chamber 16 in the interior of the base body 14.
  • a plug contact 17a, 17b which is longitudinally displaceable in the plugging direction S, is introduced into each of these receiving chambers 16. This is clearly one of the varying positions of the plug contacts 17a, 17b in relation to the adjoining cover part 15. It can be seen that the distances between the cover part 15, which delimits a receiving chamber 16, and the plug contact 17a, 17b arranged therein can vary.
  • a first type of plug-in contacts 17a each has a conductor connection contact 18 for clamping an electrical conductor 9 of a current-carrying profile 7 and at the other end area a blade contact 19 to form a plug-in contact connection for the second plug-in contact 17b of the complementary current-carrying profile connector 1b.
  • This second type of plug-in contacts 17b also have a conductor connection contact 18 for clamping the electrical conductor 9 of a current-carrying profile 7 and at the other end a fork contact 20.
  • This is also formed by two spring arms that are inclined to each other, which take up a blade contact 19 between them and by spring force clamp. It becomes clear that the blade contact 19 slides in the insertion direction S relative to the fork contact 20, so that the insertion depth of the blade contact 19 in the fork contact 20 can vary.
  • the plug contacts 17a, 17b each have a stop 21 in the transition between the conductor connection contact 18 and the blade contact 19 or the fork contact 20, which is arranged in line with a conductor entry opening 4 in the insertion direction.
  • the electrical conductor 9 is inserted so far into the conductor connection contact 18 of the respective connector 17a, 17b that the front end of an electrical conductor 9 hits the stop 21.
  • the electrical conductor 9 is fixed in position by the conductor connection contact 18 on the respective plug connector 17a, 17b and can also no longer retreat.
  • the electrical conductor 9 With the help of the combination of the conductor connection contact 18 and the stop 21, the electrical conductor 9 is fixed in position on a respective plug contact 17a, 17b.
  • the plug contact 17a, 17b clamped thereon moves back and forth in the plugging direction relative to the insulating material housing 2a, 2b of the current-carrying profile connector.
  • the plug contacts 17a, 17b are arranged displaceably in a respective receiving chamber 16 and by the sliding contact between the blade contact 19 and the fork contact 20 connected therewith a relative displacement of the two complementary first and second plug-in connectors 17a, 17b that are plugged together is possible.
  • FIG. 4 shows a sectional view of the power supply arrangement from FIG Figure 4 in the second mating level.
  • the first plug connectors 17a and the second plug connectors 17b are alternately vertically offset transversely to the plug-in direction S, so that a plug connector 17a or 17b of a first plug level is arranged on a second plug level between two plug connectors 17a and 17b.
  • the conductor connection contacts 18 of the plug connectors 17a, 17b are each formed by a spring connection contact with two opposing clamping springs 22.
  • These clamping springs 22 are each protruded from the plane of a side wall 23 into the interior of the plug contact 17a, 17b and point in the direction of the stop 21. They are integrally formed with the side walls 23 and claw into the clamped-on electrical conductor 9 so that the latter cannot be easily pulled away from the stop 21.
  • the stop 21 thus limits the degree of freedom of movement of a clamped-on electrical conductor 9 in the plug-in direction S, while the conductor connection contact 18 with the two clamping springs 22 restricts the degree of freedom of movement in the opposite direction.
  • the different displacement positions of the first and second plug contacts 17a, 17b make it clear that they are relatively displaceable to one another in the plugged-in state due to the knife and fork contacts 19, 20 and the resulting sliding contact.
  • Different linear expansions of the electrical conductors 9 relative to the carrier profiles 8 and the insulating material housings 2a, 2b of the current-carrying profile connector can thus be compensated for in a simple and reliable manner.

  • Figure 8 shows a plan view of the power supply arrangement without the base body 14 of the insulating material housing 2a, 2b, but with the remaining cover part 15. It can be seen even more clearly that the nested pairs of first and second plug contacts 17a, 17b are relatively displaceable to one another in the plugging direction S, so that between the respective blade contact 19 and the assigned, Fork contacts 20 formed by the spring arms 26 a sliding contact is made.

  • FIG. 10 shows the sectional view of the power supply arrangement from FIG Figure 9 with the difference that the position of the plug contacts 17a, 17b in the respective receiving space 16 is changed by the length expansion of the electrical conductors 9. It becomes clear that the fork contact 20 with its insertion sections 28 abuts the boundary walls of the guide slots 29 of the complementary current-carrying profile connector 1a. This is an end position for the second plug contact 17b, which as in FIG Figure 9 shown in the other end position rests against the cover part 15 without a gap.

  • Figure 11 shows a side sectional view through a complementary pair of nested current-carrying profile connectors 1a, 1b. It becomes clear that the cover parts 15 are each inserted into the base body 14 and latched into the base body 14 by means of locking lugs 32. The locking lugs 32 dip into locking openings 33 of the base body 14.
  • the conductor entry openings 4 in the cover part 15 are arranged on two levels and are alternately offset from this.

It becomes clear that the electrical conductors, after exiting a conductor entry opening 4 in the cover part 15, reach a receiving chamber 16 and are guided there from a conductor routing tunnel of the conductor connection contact 18 to a clamping point formed by the clamping springs 22. It is also clear that the blade contact 19 is encompassed on both sides by the spring arms 26 of the fork contact 18.
  • Figure 14 shows a perspective view of the nested pair of current-carrying profile connectors 1a, 1b without the base body 14. It is clear that the plug contacts 17a, 17b are partially in direct contact with the adjacent cover part 15 or are spaced apart from it by a gap. This depends on the respective length expansion of the electrical conductor 9 clamped thereon.
  • the conductor entry openings 4 in the cover parts 15 are each arranged in a row on two height levels. Between two conductor entry openings 4 of a row, a further conductor entry opening 4 is arranged alternately offset in a plane which is offset in height relative to this and which form a second row.
