Definitions
- the invention relates to a connection device for connecting a shield conductor of an electrical line to a grounding section according to the preamble of claim 1.
- Such a connection device comprises a housing which encloses a receiving space into which an electrical line can be inserted along a longitudinal axis with a shielding conductor.
- the housing can be attached to a grounding section in such a way that the grounding section extends at least partially into the receiving space.
- Such a connection device serves to contact a shielding conductor over a large area with a grounding section, for example a busbar, a mounting rail or a housing wall of an electrical system (for example a control cabinet).
- a grounding section for example a busbar, a mounting rail or a housing wall of an electrical system (for example a control cabinet).
- the contact should in this case be resistant, in particular temperature and corrosion resistant (even in aggressive environment) and vibration resistant to produce a reliable grounding of the shield conductor to the grounding section over the life of the electrical system.
- connection devices have a comparatively complex structure, use a plurality of components and are correspondingly expensive to manufacture.
- a grounding section in the form of a metallic conductor and an electrical line can be inserted into a housing.
- a clamping screw is arranged, via which the electrical line can be contacted by clamping with the metallic conductor.
- a web is biased by spring elements relative to a housing.
- a shield cable can be electrically contacted via the bridge.
- a shield conductor of an electrical line can be attached to spring terminals for making electrical contact with a busbar.
- DE 199 17 407 C1 describes a shield terminal for supporting a shield conductor of an electrical cable on a rail with a leakage potential, in particular a ground potential.
- An adjusting screw in this case has a pressure piece with a curved contour to rest against the shielding conductor.
- spring terminal clamping springs are each provided with a contact leg for connecting two conductors to the terminal.
- the object of the present invention is to provide a connection device which enables a reliable and stable contacting of a shield conductor of an electrical line with a grounding section (for example a busbar, a mounting rail or a housing edge of an electrical system), thereby being easy to operate and possibly also can be released again from a clamping position.
- a grounding section for example a busbar, a mounting rail or a housing edge of an electrical system
- connection device has an adjustable, in particular pivotably arranged on the housing spring element having a clamping leg and is movable from an open position into a clamping position to the housing to the clamping position with the clamping leg on a shield conductor of an electrical line inserted into the receiving space to act, wherein the clamping leg has a contact portion for acting on the shield conductor, which has on a side facing the shield conductor, viewed in a plane perpendicular to the longitudinal axis, an at least partially curved or angled abutment contour.
- the connecting device accordingly has an adjustable, in particular pivotably mounted on the housing spring element, which can be brought with a clamping leg in abutment with an inserted into the receiving space of the connection device shielding conductor of an electrical line.
- the spring element may be made of a spring steel, for example, and is thus elastic in itself, so that a clamping contact between the shield conductor and the grounding section produced and, for example, an age-related change in shape of Umbrella conductor or the grounding section can be compensated without affecting the contact between the shield conductor and the grounding section.
- the clamping leg In order to allow this an advantageous investment of the clamping leg on the shield conductor (in particular according to the shape of the electrical line may have a cylindrical basic shape), in particular for an EMC-compliant large-area contact, the clamping leg has a contact portion over which the clamping leg (area ) can be brought into abutment with the shield conductor and that is adapted in its shape with respect to the shield conductor.
- the abutment portion forms a curved or angled abutment contour (viewed in a plane perpendicular to the longitudinal axis, along which the shield conductor can be inserted into the receiving space of the housing of the connection device), so that the abutment portion viewed in the circumferential direction about the longitudinal axis at least partially planar to the shield conductor can create.
- an advantageous force is possible with cheaper, surface contact with the shielding conductor.
- the interference fit of the shielding conductor in the housing of the connection device can be improved because the shielding conductor is held in position over the abutment contour even in the plane perpendicular to the longitudinal axis within the housing and thus not transversely to the longitudinal axis (tangential to the grounding section) relative to the clamping leg can be.
- the contact section has a first contact section and a second contact section, which together form the contact contour.
- the contact portions may be formed in the manner of contact tongues and are preferably separated by a longitudinally along the clamping leg extending slot, so that the contact portions can basically conform to each other in an elastic manner to the line. In this way, an advantageous contact with the electrical line is made possible via the contact sections, optionally with compensation for tolerances in the design of the connection device and the shape of the electrical line.
- the first and / or the second contact portion may, for example, be curved at least in sections in the plane extending perpendicular to the longitudinal axis.
- the contact portions may, for example, together form a semicircular contact contour. Additionally or alternatively, the contact portions may be arranged in an angled position to each other.
- the contact sections may in each case be rectilinearly extended, for example, at least in sections, so that, for example, a V-shaped contact contour results in the plane extending perpendicularly to the longitudinal axis.
- the first contact portion and the second contact portion may in this case preferably describe an obtuse angle to each other (as viewed in the plane extending perpendicular to the longitudinal axis).
- At least one third contact section is arranged (viewed in the circumferential direction about the longitudinal axis) between the first contact section and the second contact section.
- the contact portions may in this case be separated from one another, for example, by slots extending longitudinally along the clamping legs, so that an elastic deflection of the contact portions relative to one another is possible.
- the first contact portion and / or the second contact portion and / or the third contact portion may be curved at least in sections (as viewed in the plane perpendicular to the longitudinal axis).
- the contact sections can thus together form a semicircular contact contour.
- the contact portions may be angled to each other, for which purpose the third contact portion with both the first contact portion and the second contact portion describes a preferably obtuse angle (as viewed in the plane perpendicular to the longitudinal axis).
- the spring element is preferably integrally and integrally formed with its contact portions.
- the contact portions are in this case formed on the clamping leg, that the contact portions are cut free from each other by slots and thus can be moved elastically to each other.
- the spring element has more than three, for example via slots, separate contact sections at its clamping leg, which together form the contact contour.
- the spring element of the connection device can be pivoted to the housing in one embodiment. Characterized in that the spring element is pivotally mounted on the housing, the spring element can be easily operated. By pivoting the spring element can be adjusted in a simple manner between the open position and the clamping position, for example, the shield conductor with the at the Contact housing grounding section or turn to release the electrical conductor of the connection device.
- the housing and the spring element can be designed as stamped and bent parts.
- the spring element may for example have a pivotally mounted on the housing actuating leg, which is connected to the clamping with the shield conductor of the electrical line inserted into the receiving space in contact clamping leg and thereby bent over to the clamping leg.
- the actuating leg can be locked to the housing to determine the position of the spring element relative to the housing in the clamping position.
- a user may manually act on the spring element via the actuating limb and the spring element may e.g. push in the direction of its clamping position to electrically contact the shield conductor with the grounding section.
- the spring element arrives in clamping contact with the shielding conductor, so that the shielding conductor is pressed contacting against the grounding section and above an electrical contact between the shielding conductor and the grounding section is made.
- the clamping leg is preferably additionally curved in the region of its contact section about the pivot axis about which the spring element is pivotably connected to the housing.
- the abutment portion of the clamping leg is thus provided in the plane perpendicular to the longitudinal axis extending plane with a curved or angled contour and is also curved around the (transverse to the longitudinal axis) pivot axis.
- the clamping leg does not come with a (sharp) end edge, but on the curved contact portion with the shield conductor of the electrical line in abutment, a flat contact of the clamping leg can be achieved on the shield conductor.
- the clamping limb conforms to the shielding conductor and contacts the shielding conductor in a flat manner, without sharp edges coming into contact with the shielding conductor (which could otherwise lead to damage to the shielding conductor).
- the actuating leg is preferably carried out a locking of the spring element with the housing in the clamping position.
- the actuating limb preferably has a latching device which, for example, formed by latching lugs on an end portion of the actuating limb remote from the clamping limb can be.
- a latching device which, for example, formed by latching lugs on an end portion of the actuating limb remote from the clamping limb can be.
- About the locking lugs of the actuating arm locked for example with locking projections on the housing, so that the actuating limb is positively fixed in its clamping position and thus held in the clamping position.
- the spring element is pressed, for example by pressure on the actuating limb in the direction of the clamping position.
- the spring element clamps the shield conductor of the electrical line to the grounding section attached to the housing, so that the shielding conductor is electrically contacted with the grounding section.
- the spring element can be released, for example by a user with a tool, e.g. a screwdriver engages in a tool engagement with the end portion of the actuating leg and in this way releases the latching between the latching noses of the actuating arm and the latching projections of the housing.
- the spring element is mounted in one embodiment about the pivot axis pivotally mounted on the housing.
- two opposing hinge plates may be formed on the actuating limb, which project from the actuating limb and, for example, engage with the housing arranged on the pivot pin, so that the spring element is pivotally connected to the housing.
- the housing may be formed integrally, for example.
- the housing may in one embodiment, for example, two parallel extending, along a transverse direction spaced side walls, between which the receiving space is formed, and having the side walls interconnecting base.
- the housing can thus have, for example, a cross-sectionally U-shaped form into which the electrical conductor can be inserted with stripped screen conductor.
- the shielding conductor can be inserted into the housing in such a way that, in the clamping position, the shielding conductor extends through the receiving space along the longitudinal axis between the side walls.
- the shielding conductor can in this case, for example, in an insertion direction transverse to the longitudinal axis and transverse to the transverse direction, along which the side walls are spaced from each other, are inserted into the receiving space.
- the electrical line does not have to be threaded through the housing, but can be easily inserted along the direction of insertion into the housing, so that the shield conductor comes to rest in the receiving space of the housing.
- the electrical line with the stripped shielding conductor is preferably first inserted into the housing of the connection device. Then, together with the electrical lead arranged thereon, the housing may be connected to the grounding section, for example a grounding busbar, a support rail or a portion of a housing wall of an electrical system, e.g. a control cabinet or the like, are recognized. If the housing has been attached to the grounding section, the grounding section preferably extends through the receiving space along the transverse direction, along which the side walls of the housing are spaced from one another.
- the side walls of the housing may for this purpose have recesses which are adapted in shape to the shape of the grounding section and thus can receive the grounding section, for example a rectangular cross-section metallic conductor.
- the electrical lead and the grounding section thus extend along different directions to the housing. While the electrical line is laid along the longitudinal axis through the housing, the grounding section extends transversely to the electrical line along the transverse direction through the receiving space.
- the recesses may be formed in the form of slots on the side walls of the housing, that the connection means on sides of the pivot axis, via which the spring element is pivotally connected to the housing, can be attached to the grounding section.
- the Shield clamp also with closed spring element (spring element in the clamping position) to attach to the grounding section, and also can be improved strain relief.
- the recesses are formed on the side walls so that the connection device can be pushed onto the grounding section on a side of the housing remote from the pivot axis.
- This may optionally allow a design in which the stripped length can be shortened to expose the shield conductor.
- the plugging direction of the connection device to the grounding section and the closing movement of the spring element in this case are substantially rectified, so that a simplified handling can result.
- the shielding conductor is thus received between the spring element and the grounding section and pressed by clamped contact of the spring element on the shield conductor in direct, electrically contacting system with the grounding section.

- a spring element 11 On the housing 100, pivotable about a pivot axis S, a spring element 11 is arranged, which has an actuating limb 1 10 and a to the actuating limb 1 10 bent clamping leg 13.
- the spring element 1 1 is made for example as a stamped and bent part of a spring steel and is resiliently resilient in itself, so that the actuating arm 110 and the clamping leg 13 can be adjusted to each other in position elastically.
- Fig. 2 to 4 show the spring element 1 1 in a clamping position in which the spring element 1 1 via the clamping legs 13 in clamping system with the partially stripped shield conductor 20 of the electrical line 2 and the shield conductor 20 in electrically contacting system with the by the Housing 10 extending through grounding section 3 presses.
- the spring element 1 1 via locking lugs 1 14 at an end remote from the clamping leg 13 end portion 1 13 of the actuating arm 1 10 with latching projections 102 on the opposite side walls 100 is locked, so that the spring element 11 positively in its clamping position relative to the housing 10th is held.
- this clamping position of the clamping leg 13 is located at a spaced from an end edge 131 abutment portion 130 on the shield conductor 20 of the electrical line 2.
- this contact portion 130 of the clamping leg 13 is curved (in the plane perpendicular to the pivot axis S), so that no sharp-edged portions of the clamping leg 13 (in particular not the end edge 131) on the shield conductor 20th abutment and thus a flat contact of the clamping leg 13 is provided on the shield conductor 20.
- the spring element 11 has, on the actuating limb 110, two opposing joint plates 11, which are each connected in an articulated manner to one of the side walls 100 of the housing 10 and articulated to pivot pins 103 of the side walls 100.
- the spring element 11 is thus pivotable about the pivot pin 103 and can be adjusted in particular between an open position in which the spring element 11 is open against a closing direction Z from the clamping position, and the clamping position.
- the electrical line 2 can be inserted into the receiving space 12 with the shield conductor 20 stripped of sections in an insertion direction E from a side facing away from the base 104 of the housing 10, so that the electrical line 2 in the inserted position along a longitudinal axis L transverse to the transverse direction Q and extends transversely to the insertion direction E through the receiving space 12 of the housing 10 therethrough.

- the terminal device 1 is attached to the grounding section 3 together with the electric wire 2 arranged thereon by engaging the housing 10 with the grounding section 3 via the recesses 101.
- the grounding section 3 thus extends through the receiving space 12 of the housing 10 such that the spring element 11 and the grounding section 3 come to rest on different sides of the electrical line 2.
- the spring element 1 1 transferred to the clamping position shown in Fig. 2 to 4 and pressed in the closing direction Z until the actuating leg 1 10 via its arranged on the end portion 113 locking lugs 1 14 with the latching projections 102 on the side walls 100 of the housing 10 is locked.

- the spring element 11 is formed on its clamping leg 13 such that, viewed in a plane A perpendicular to the longitudinal axis (corresponding to the Drawing plane in Fig. 8 and Fig. 1 1), a contact contour K results, which is not rectilinearly, but which is adapted to the curved surface shape of the shield conductor 20 of the electrical line 2.
- spring element 1 1 of the clamping legs 13 with two contact portions 132, 133 are formed, which are separated by a longitudinally extending on the clamping leg 13 slot 135 from each other.
- the contact portions 132, 133 are formed in the manner of contact tongues and elastically deflectable to each other, so that the contact portions 132, 133 when transferring the spring element 11 in the clamping position (see FIG. 8) can create elastic to the shield conductor 20 of the electrical line 2.
- the contact portions 132, 133 are angled to form the contact contour K for contact with the shield conductor 20 to each other.
- the contact portions 132, 133 are convexly curved at their outer sides lying opposite, wherein on these outer sides additionally recesses 136 are formed in the contact portions 132, 133, which increase the elasticity of the contact portions 132, 133 at their ends to rest against the shield conductor 20.
- the contact contour K can also have a semicircular shape.
- the contact portions 132, 133 may each be concavely curved in the region of their ends for forming the abutment portion 130, so that the contact portions 132, 133 together simulate a semi-circular shape at their ends.
- the spring element 11 depicted in separate illustrations in FIGS. 16 to 18 is arranged on the housing 10.
- the spring element 1 1 has at its clamping leg 13 three contact portions 132, 133, 134 in the form of contact tongues, which are separated from each other by slits 135 and thus are elastically movable relative to each other.
- the contact sections 132, 133, 134 jointly form a contact contour K in the plane A perpendicular to the longitudinal axis L (corresponding to the plane of the drawing in FIGS. 18 and 15), via which the clamping leg 13 abuts can be brought with the shield conductor 20 of an inserted into the receiving space 12 of the housing 10 of the connection device 1 line 2.
- the contact contour K can be adapted to the shape of a (nominally assigned) shielding conductor 20, so that the contact sections 132, 133, 134 can bear against the shielding conductor 20 in a favorable manner. Due to the elastic configuration, an advantageous investment behavior of the abutment sections 132, 133, 134 on the shielding conductor 20 can be achieved while compensating for tolerances.
- the contact sections 132, 133, 134 in the plane A extend in each case in a straight line, but angled relative to one another, so that the contact contour K shown in FIG. 18 results, for example.
- the abutment sections 132, 133, 134 are curved at their ends in the plane A at least in sections (convex or concave).
- FIGS. 12 to 15 is functionally identical to the exemplary embodiments according to FIGS. 1 to 4 and according to FIGS. 5 to 8, so that with regard to the mode of operation of the connection device 1 to the explanations of the preceding embodiments should be referenced.
- the exemplary embodiment according to FIGS. 12 to 15 in this case corresponds to the exemplary embodiment according to FIGS. 5 to 8.
- the spring element 11 can be realized in the embodiment of FIGS. 1 to 4, for example, in the manner of the in Fig. 9 to 11 or in the manner of the spring element shown in Fig. 16 to 18 or in other ways.
- the spring element 1 may have two, three or even more contact sections 132, 133, 134.
- connection device can be simple and use only a few components.
- the connection device can in principle be produced by a housing part and a spring element. Other components can be omitted. This results in a simple, cost-effective production with a compact design.
- connection device can provide a favorable, reliable, stable contact force for the electrical contacting of a shielding conductor with a grounding section.
- the connection device can be simple and intuitive to use and also allow a release of a contact.
- the connection device can in principle also be designed differently than described here.
- the housing may have a different shape.
- the housing may preferably be made of a metal, for example as a stamped and bent part. But this is not absolutely necessary. In principle conceivable and possible is also to form the housing made of plastic.
