Definitions

  • the invention relates to a conductor connection terminal according to the preamble of claim 1.
  • Such a conductor connection terminal is from the EN 10 2013 107 292 A1 known. From the US9,525,219 B2 A conductor terminal with spring clamp connection is known, which has an internal busbar. From the DE 201 20 811 U1 A busbar terminal is known. From the US 2015/0372402 A1 A conductor terminal with spring clamp connections and a continuous internal busbar is known. JP 2004 165045 A Another busbar connection terminal is known.
  • the invention is based on the object of further optimizing such a conductor connection terminal.
  • the conductor connection terminal serves to connect an electrical conductor by means of spring clamping, wherein the conductor connection terminal is designed to be plugged onto a busbar, wherein the conductor connection terminal has at least one spring clamp connection with a clamping spring for clamping the electrical conductor, a housing at least partially surrounding the spring clamp connection with a conductor insertion opening and a pivotably mounted actuating lever which is designed to actuate at least part of the clamping spring, wherein a receiving space is provided in the housing for receiving at least a section of the busbar onto which the conductor connection terminal can be plugged.
  • the conductor connection terminal according to the invention can be realized with a simple and compact structure. A simple and safe lever operation with secure clamping can be achieved.
  • the conductor connection terminal allows easy snapping or other attachment to the busbar.
  • the electrical conductor to be connected can be introduced into the housing in a conductor insertion direction through the conductor insertion opening and guided to a terminal point of the spring-loaded terminal connection.
  • a conductor insertion channel can be connected to the conductor insertion opening within the housing.
  • the conductor insertion channel and the receiving space are arranged in such a way that they merge into one another, so that a busbar received in the receiving space at least partially protrudes into the conductor insertion channel.
  • the actuating lever adjoins the receiving space of the busbar or protrudes into the receiving space of the busbar.
  • the actuating lever can use the surface of the busbar at least in part as a support and sliding surface during the pivoting movement.
  • the structure of the conductor connection terminal can therefore be simplified, since in particular the bearing of the actuating lever required for the pivoting movement requires less effort with regard to the structural design of the conductor connection terminal.
  • the actuating lever can be supported on the busbar accommodated in the receiving space, at least during a pivoting movement of the actuating lever.
  • the actuating lever can thus slide at least partially along the surface of the busbar during the pivoting movement.
  • the conductor connection terminal has positioning elements for positioning the busbar relative to the receiving space in an installation position in which the busbar is arranged obliquely relative to the conductor insertion direction.
  • the positioning elements determine a specific position of the section of the busbar present in the receiving space relative to the conductor insertion direction and and thus also defined with regard to the clamped-on electrical conductor.
  • the positioning elements can thus be used to fix the busbar in its installation position.
  • the electrical conductor is not arranged parallel to the busbar, but at a certain angle to it, for example at an acute angle.
  • the angle between the conductor insertion direction and the surface of the busbar facing the electrical conductor can, for example, be in the range of 5 to 45 degrees. This allows the electrical conductor to be clamped particularly reliably, whereby the section of the busbar located in the receiving space can be used to clamp the electrical conductor. By guiding the electrical conductor at an angle to the surface of the busbar, the electrical conductor does not come into contact with the busbar.
  • the positioning elements have one or more locking elements, by means of which the conductor connection terminal can be connected to the busbar in a locking manner.
  • the conductor connection terminal can in particular be designed in such a way that no positioning elements have to be separately operated manually in order to connect the conductor connection terminal to the busbar.
  • the housing of the conductor connection terminal can be designed as a housing consisting of one or more components, whereby the housing with its one or more components can be designed to be rigid overall. A joint for opening or closing the housing is not required.
  • the receiving space extends completely through the conductor connection terminal in a transverse direction that runs orthogonal to the conductor insertion direction.
  • the housing of the conductor connection terminal which can be designed as an insulating housing, for example, is thus open at the side in the area of the receiving space. Accordingly, the conductor connection terminal can also be plugged onto a busbar that has a relatively large longitudinal extension.
  • the clamping spring has a contact leg, a spring arch adjoining the contact leg, and a clamping leg adjoining the spring arch for clamping the electrical conductor.
  • the clamping spring can be supported by means of the contact leg on a part of the conductor connection terminal against the clamping force of the clamping leg.
  • the electrical conductor can be clamped by the clamping force of the clamping leg.
  • the conductor connection terminal can have, for example, a busbar against which the electrical conductor is pressed by means of the clamping leg, or an area of the surface of the busbar can be used to clamp the electrical conductor.
  • the clamping leg can act directly on the busbar, or via one or more other elements, for example a busbar and/or the clamped electrical conductor.
  • the conductor connection terminal has a holding frame on which the contact leg is held, e.g. by the contact leg being received, suspended or fixed there.
  • the holding frame can be designed as a metal part, for example.
  • the holding frame can have an opening surrounded by webs on the circumference, through which at least one free end of the electrical conductor to be clamped can be passed.
  • the contact leg can be suspended on the holding frame, for example, on the inner circumference of the opening.
  • the holding frame has a tension element or is coupled to a tension element.
  • the busbar in the receiving space can be supported on the tension element against a clamping force of the clamping leg acting on the busbar.
  • the tension element which can be designed as a pull rod, for example, can transfer a pure tensile force from the busbar to the fastening point of the contact leg.
  • the spring-loaded clamp connection can be held self-supportingly on the busbar via the tension element. In such a self-supporting system, no or only negligible forces of the clamping spring are transferred to the housing. This makes it possible in particular to create a closed Force flow must be created between the tension element, the holding frame and the busbar.
  • the free end of the clamping leg is positioned in such a way that a clamping point for clamping the electrical conductor is formed between a free end and a surface of a busbar located in the receiving space facing the clamping leg.
  • the busbar can be used as a clamping surface for the electrical conductor.
  • the conductor connection terminal can therefore be designed without its own busbar, i.e. without a busbar. This can further simplify the structure of the conductor connection terminal.
  • an electrical conductor clamped to the clamping point can be clamped between the free end of the clamping leg and a corner edge of the busbar.
  • the receiving space can have positioning elements which position the busbar received in the receiving space in such a way that a corner edge is positioned towards the free end of the clamping leg in such a way that a clamped electrical conductor can be clamped between the free end and the corner edge.
  • the clamping leg can have a clamping edge at its free end. This further improves the reliability of the clamping of the electrical conductor.
  • the housing has an insertion opening through which a section of the busbar can be inserted into the receiving space of the conductor connection terminal.
  • the insertion opening can be arranged on the same side of the housing as the conductor insertion opening or on a side of the housing facing away from an actuating side of the conductor connection terminal.
  • the actuating side of the conductor connection terminal is a side on which a manual actuating element of the operating lever is accessible for manual operation. This allows a particularly easy insertion of the section of the busbar into the receiving space or a simple plugging of the conductor connection terminal onto the busbar.
  • the actuating lever is U-shaped when viewed in the conductor insertion direction, with a first and a second bearing disc, which are connected to one another via a connecting region of the actuating lever, with a gap between the first and the second bearing disc for the electrical conductor to be clamped through.
  • the actuating lever can transmit large actuating forces to the clamping spring with a compact design.
  • the conductor connection terminal can be designed to be very compact overall, since the gap between the bearing discs can be used to guide the electrical conductor through.
  • the first and second bearing discs can, for example, be supported on the surface of the busbar and slide thereon when a pivoting movement of the operating lever is carried out.
  • the U-shaped part of the actuating lever has an open side which is positioned such that it can be covered by the surface of the busbar accommodated in the receiving space.
  • the open side of the U-shape can thus be closed by the busbar accommodated in the receiving space.
  • the first and second bearing discs form a guide for the electrical conductor guided through the gap in each actuation position of the actuation lever. Accordingly, a guide for the electrical conductor is already provided by the actuation lever. The guidance can be ensured in every operating state of the conductor connection terminal, in particular in every pivot position of the actuation lever, by the first and second bearing discs.
  • the Conductor connection terminal can have additional conductor guiding elements, as explained below.
  • the conductor connection terminal has only one spring for each spring clamp connection, namely the clamping spring of the spring clamp connection.
  • the conductor connection terminal is simple and has only a few components. This simplifies both the manufacture and the assembly of the conductor connection terminal.
  • the clamping spring is essentially V-shaped.
  • the spring-loaded clamp connection can be designed as a direct corner connection.
  • an electrical conductor if it is sufficiently rigid (for example a single-wire conductor), can be inserted directly into the clamping point without operating the operating lever and can be clamped in place using the clamping leg.
  • the operating lever only needs to be operated to remove the clamped electrical conductor from the clamping point.
  • the operating lever can, for example, have an open position and a closed position.
  • the clamping point In the open position, the clamping point is open, i.e. the clamping leg is far enough away from the counterpart used for clamping (e.g. busbar or busbar) that an electrical conductor can be inserted into or removed from the clamping point without the need for force.
  • the clamping leg In the closed position, the clamping leg is effective in clamping the electrical conductor to the clamping point.
  • the operating lever can be mounted in the conductor terminal in a movable and/or floating manner, particularly in the area of its bearing.
  • the operating lever can assume a slightly different position in the conductor terminal in the area of its bearing if no busbar is arranged in the receiving space, compared to the state of a busbar arranged in the receiving space.
  • the operating lever can be displaced by the busbar in the area of its bearing to a certain (usually relatively small) extent.
  • the indefinite term “a” is not to be understood as a number. If, for example, a component is mentioned, this is to be interpreted in the sense of "at least one component”. If angles are given in degrees, these refer to a circular dimension of 360 degrees (360°).
  • the conductor connection terminal 1 shown has a housing 2, a clamping spring 4, an actuating lever 5 and a holding frame 6.
  • the housing 2 can, for example, be designed in two parts with a first housing component 20 and a second housing component 21.
  • the first and second housing components 20, 21 can be attached to one another via positioning elements, for example by locking them together.
  • the clamping spring 4 and the holding frame 6 are arranged in the area surrounded by the housing 2.
  • the Figure 1 additionally shows a busbar 3 to which the conductor connection terminal 1 is attached.
  • the housing 2 has a conductor receiving chamber 22, a conductor insertion opening 23, an insertion opening 24, a receiving space 25 for receiving a section of the busbar 3 and positioning elements 26, 27, 28 which serve to position the busbar 3 relative to the receiving space 25 in a defined installation position.
  • the conductor receiving chamber 22 can be formed, for example, by a part of the second housing component 21, the other mentioned elements of the housing 2 can be formed on the first housing component 20.
  • the conductor insertion opening 23 is located on a conductor insertion side 11 of the conductor connection terminal 1.
  • the conductor insertion opening 23 is followed in the interior of the housing 2 by a conductor insertion channel 98 which can, for example, be at least partially surrounded by walls of the housing 2.
  • An electrical conductor that is to be connected to the conductor connection terminal 1 can be guided in a conductor insertion direction L through the conductor insertion opening 23 to a terminal point explained below.
  • the insertion opening 24 is used to insert a section of the busbar 3 into the receiving space 25. If this section of the busbar 3 is completely inserted, the in Figure 1 shown state, in which the receiving space 25 is largely filled by this section of the busbar 3. As can be seen, the busbar 3 protrudes at least a little way into the conductor entry channel 98.
  • the positioning elements 26, 27 can be designed, for example, as mutually opposite sliding edges of the housing 2, on which the busbar is guided during its insertion through the insertion opening 24 into the receiving space 25 and is ultimately held in the installation position.
  • the positioning element 28 can be designed as a locking element that is arranged on a spring-loaded locking tongue of the housing 2. This locking tongue gives way slightly when the busbar 3 is inserted and then snaps back again when the installation position of the busbar 3 in the receiving space 25 is reached, whereby the busbar 3 is fixed in the receiving space 25 by locking.
  • the position of the busbar 3 can be fixed, for example, by the holding frame 6.
  • the clamping spring 4 has a contact leg 41, a spring arch 42 adjoining the contact leg 41 and a clamping leg 43 adjoining the spring arch 42.
  • the contact leg is fixed to the holding frame 6 via its free end 40 and supported there, for example by the free end 40 being suspended there behind a web 60 of the holding frame 6.
  • the web 60 can in this way form a first bearing 60 for receiving the contact leg 41.
  • the clamping leg 43 ends at a free end 44, on which a clamping edge can be present. By means of the free end 44 or the clamping edge, an electrical conductor can be clamped to a surface 30 of the busbar 3.
  • the clamping point of the spring force clamp connection realized in this way is thus formed between the free end 44 or the clamping edge of the clamping leg 43 and the surface 30 of the busbar 3.
  • the clamping point can be formed in particular with the aid of the corner edge 31 of the busbar 3.
  • the holding frame 6 has a recess 61.
  • An electrical conductor to be connected which is inserted through the conductor insertion opening 23, is first through the conductor insertion channel 98 adjoining the conductor insertion opening 23.
  • the electrical conductor is guided by bearing disks 52 arranged on the sides.
  • the clamping leg 43 and the surface 30 of the busbar 3 also play a role in guiding the conductor.
  • the electrical conductor can be inserted through the recess 61 into the conductor receiving space 22, which also forms an end stop to limit the depth of insertion of the electrical conductor.
  • the holding frame 6 is continued below the recess 61 by a tension element 62, behind which the busbar 3 is suspended.
  • the tension element 62 can, for example, end with a bent free end that forms a second bearing 99 on which the busbar 3 rests.
  • the clamping spring 4 transmits a clamping force directly or indirectly to the busbar 3 through the clamping leg 43.
  • the busbar 3 is supported against this clamping force by the tension element 62, which in turn is connected to the contact leg 41 via the holding frame 6. In this way, a self-supporting contact insert of the conductor connection terminal 1 is realized.
  • the actuating lever 5 is accessible for manual actuation on an actuating side 10 of the conductor connection terminal 1.
  • the actuating lever 5 has a manual actuating element 50, on which the actuating lever 5 can be manually actuated.
  • the actuating lever 5 extends from the manual actuating element 50 into an area in which the actuating lever 50 forks into a side cheek 51 arranged on the left and a side cheek 51 on the right.
  • the side cheeks 51 can extend laterally, for example, beyond the holding frame 6.
  • Respective spring actuating bodies are attached to the inner sides of the side cheeks 51 facing one another, on each of which a first and a second bearing disk 52 is arranged.
  • the actuating lever 5 is pivotable, i.e. rotatable, in the conductor connection terminal 1 via the bearing disks 52 and can be supported in particular on the surface 30 of the busbar 3. In this case, the operating lever 5 slides with the bearing discs 52 on the busbar 3 during a pivoting movement.
  • the spring actuating bodies each have a V-shaped notch through which a respective actuating edge 53 is formed.
  • the actuating edge 53 acts on the clamping leg 43. If the actuating lever 5 is released from the Figure 1 shown closed position into an open position by pivoting it counterclockwise through an angle of approximately 90 degrees, the clamping leg 43 is deflected upwards in the direction of the contact leg 41 by the actuating edge 53, whereby the free end 44 or the clamping edge is moved away from the busbar 3.
  • the Figure 2 shows the conductor connection terminal 1 in a plan view of the conductor insertion side 11.
  • the busbar 3 extends completely through the housing 2 in the transverse direction Q, i.e. the receiving space 25 also extends completely through the conductor connection terminal 1 in the transverse direction Q.
  • the Figure 3 shows a sectional view of the conductor connection terminal 1 according to the section line AA of the Figure 1 This also clarifies the elements already explained. This is particularly evident in the Figure 3 that the holding frame 6 has a recess 61 which is delimited by webs 60, 63, 64 and downwards, on the side of the recess 61 opposite the web 60, by the adjoining region of the tension element 62.
  • the Figure 4 shows an alternative embodiment of the locking fastening of the busbar 3 by means of the positioning element 28.
  • the positioning element 28 is guided via a U-shaped arm from the first housing component 20 to a side edge of the busbar 3.
  • the insertion opening 24 is arranged on the same side of the housing 2 as the conductor insertion opening 23, namely on the conductor insertion side 11, the Figures 5 to 7 illustrated embodiment of the conductor connection terminal 1, a variant is explained in which the insertion opening 24 is arranged on the side of the housing 2 facing away from the actuating side 10.
  • the section of the busbar 3 is inserted into the housing 2 from below, so to speak.
  • the busbar 3 is introduced into the receiving space 25 in such a way that it is first pushed between the free end 44 of the clamping leg 43 and the tension element 62 and is then locked in place behind the positioning element 28 by means of a tilting movement.
  • the housing 2, in particular the first housing part 20 can have an elongated notch or an incision 29.
  • the positioning element 28 does not have to be a locking element that runs through the transverse direction Q, but can be implemented by two individual locking elements in the area of the side walls of the housing 2, which are connected to one another by a crossbar below the inserted busbar 3.
  • a tool for example a screwdriver, can be inserted into the gap or opening thus formed in order to deflect the positioning element 28 and to remove the locking connection between the housing 2 and the busbar, so that the conductor connection terminal 1 can be removed from the busbar.
