Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a spring-loaded electrical connector with cage, of the type consisting of a spring leaf forming a loop, one of which of the ends is generally fixed on an electrical terminal in the form a plate, which is engaged in an opening in the other end of the blade. In the idle state, the terminal attached to the leaf spring rests on the edge of the hole closest to the end of the blade.
  • This type of configuration is well known and has been the subject of multiple variants, aimed at adapting it to a large number of applications.
  • the invention more particularly aims to apply this type of connector to modular electrical devices such as a circuit breaker.
  • connection capacity is an important factor.
  • One of the limitations that have cage spring connectors often resides in the surface of the orifice, on which the above-mentioned loop configuration is in fact based.
  • the proposed connector formed of a plate constituting a terminal electrical for a device equipped with said connector, to which is fixed at least one cage spring taking the form of a loop-shaped blade comprising a first end portion of flat appearance secured to the terminal, followed by a inclined portion deviating from it, then of a terminal portion of planar aspect oriented in a direction substantially perpendicular to the terminal, which includes a window surrounding the latter, the relative elastic displacement terminal / blade spring being limited by edges of said window oriented parallel to the terminal, is essentially characterized in that the terminal portion is constituted a flat plate independent of the rest of the blade, fixed to the latter in its distal part of the terminal.
  • the main advantage of this structure is that it leads to a much greater compactness of these cage spring connection systems, authorizing in particular their application to modular electrical devices in much better conditions.
  • the end plate thus increases the width of the opening, in a proportion that could not be obtained if the hole was made directly in the leaf spring. This width can then easily reach the width of the spring.
  • This end plate is also interesting from the point of view of the manufacturing because it facilitates the assembly of the connector in the modular device. As will be seen below, in a use with several connectors of forehead, a space saving in width is notably obtained by shifting said plates in a direction perpendicular to their main plane.
  • the fixing of the leaf spring to the end plate is produced by crimping. It is of course possible to implement other fixing possibilities, crimping, however, has the advantage of being able be produced industrially simply and at low cost.
  • the end of the terminal protruding from the window of the terminal plate, at the opposite of the leaf spring, has a projection projecting from the face of said terminal opposite to that on which the blade is fixed.
  • This characteristic allows a better behavior of the conductor, and plate in particular the latter against the terminal, thus making the electrical connection more reliable.
  • the fixing of the blade comes out at the bollard is produced by means of a relief of cylindrical appearance projecting from the bollard and fixed in a hole in the blade.
  • the terminal may include a projection, arranged at its distal end of that which cooperates with the end plate, oriented substantially perpendicular to the general plane of the terminal.
  • the terminal can include two sets with leaf spring and end plate, the end plates being then shifted perpendicular to their mean planes so that the edges side of the leaf springs can be in contact, the end of the terminal cooperating with the windows of the end plates then being separated in two branches whose ends are also offset.
  • the invention also relates to these devices, when they comprise at least one connector as described above, at least one connector then being arranged in at least one housing of the device housing located behind a side face of said housing, a number of orifices corresponding to the number of end plates being practiced in each side face under the fixed location of each terminal.
  • independent end plate configuration When at least two leaf springs are arranged across the width of device, independent end plate configuration has the advantages aforementioned and mainly the possibility of shifting without hampering the ability to connection.
  • This configuration can of course also be used in a hypothesis with only one leaf spring, the existence of the end plate presenting in this case the advantage of offering a connection capacity compatible with the applicable requirements for modular electrical devices.
  • the ease system assembly remains verified in this hypothesis.
  • the orifices made in the lateral face connection can be fitted with a guide bush.
  • the function of such a cannon is to facilitate the insertion of the conductors in a side which is generally less accessible to the user because it is not facing him.
  • said orifices can be surmounted by a number corresponding of openings allowing the insertion of a tool to flex the blades spring, a stop being then provided at the bottom of the housing.
  • the tool used for example a screwdriver, is inserted at an angle parallel to one portions of the leaf spring, on which pressure is exerted by printing a rotation with the blade of the tool around an axis identified with the linear contact zone between the end of the tool and the stop.
  • these leaf springs are surmounted by a number corresponding push buttons accessible on the front of the device, and also allowing them to flex.
  • the pushers themselves can be handled either with a tool or manually.
  • the front of the device can be fitted with a test hole placed in look of the aforementioned outgrowth equipping the terminal and extending towards said orifice.
  • This protuberance is for this purpose oriented approximately perpendicular to the portion on which the leaf spring is fixed.
  • the terminal (1) is surmounted by two blades springs (2) and (3) to which end plates (4) and (5) are attached, having the appearance perpendicular to the terminal (1).
  • the terminal (1) On the side of said end plates (4) and (5), the terminal (1) is divided into two portions (6, 7) engaged respectively in holes (8) and (9) made in plates (4) and (5).
  • the end portions (6) and (7) are themselves provided with bosses (10, 11) oriented downwards, and making it possible to press the conductors against the lower surface of the terminal (1).
  • the other end of the terminal (1) is provided with a portion (12) extending in a direction generally perpendicular to the mean plane of terminal 1, the operation will be explained in more detail below.
  • the leaf springs (2) and (3) are partially crimped upper end plates (4) and (5).
  • the attachment is produced using a cylinder (13, 14) engaged in a circular orifice made in said spring blades (2) and (3).
  • Windows (8) and (9) have a width identical to that of leaf springs (2) and (3), which is one of the advantages of the invention.
  • the end plates (4) and (5) are slightly offset, so that they overlap at the uprights respectively right and left of their orifices (8) and (9). This configuration results in proposing a connection port of the widest possible surface, all allowing the establishment of a double connection across the width of a device standard modular electric.
  • Figure 2 is identical to the configuration of Figure 1, which are added push buttons (15, 16) allowing the manipulation of the blades springs (2) and (3).
  • the button (15) has an oblong hole (17) on its side face allowing its guidance in rectilinear translation using a lug protruding from the inner wall of the housing (not shown) opposite this oblong hole (17). The same possibility exists on the framed side face of the push button (16).
  • the configuration shown makes it possible to operate a deflection of the leaf springs using a tool (O) of which the leaf is inserted in the housing (B) of the modular device, until it comes into contact with a stop (18) disposed between the front (F) of said housing and the terminal (1).
  • the utility of the protuberance (12) also appears in this figure 3. It actually has two portions, a portion of shape perpendicular to the terminal (1), and a second inclined portion which goes towards an orifice (22) made in the facade. This orifice (22) provides access to the live parts with a tester type instrument, which can test the state of contact connections with the protuberance (12).
  • the guide barrel appears disjoint from the housing (B) of the modular device, and in particular comprises two upper orifices referenced (23, 24) allowing the passage of the tool blade (O).
  • This is inserted above end plates (4) and (5), and is biased between the portions inclined leaf springs (2) and (3) and an inclined plane leading to the stop (18).
  • the biasing of the spring blades is done by pivoting the tool blade (O) around a theoretical axis located in the contact zone between the end of the blade and the rounded bottom of said stopper (18).
  • Figure 5 is identical to the previous one, with the guide barrel now fixed on the housing (B) of the modular apparatus.
  • the connector of the invention is then completely hidden, the user having access only to the orifices (20, 21) inserting the conductors, at the holes (23, 24) inserting a tool blade at the to control the opening of the connectors, and finally to the hole (22) allowing to test the quality of the connections.
