Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a connector for mechanical and electrical connection to a corresponding mating connector, comprising a housing, a protective conductor bridge and a plug insert, the protective conductor bridge being held on the housing.
  • Such connectors and mating connectors are used in the prior art to create an electrical and mechanical connection between two electrical lines or an electrical line and a device or an installation.
  • Large, heavy connectors, which are protected against environmental influences by the housing, are required in particular for the transmission of large currents.
  • Such housings are usually made of aluminum and are provided with a thread for receiving a cable gland.
  • the connectors considered here are designed to connect a number of electrical conductors, one of which is a protective conductor (PE contact).
  • the protective conductor can also be combined with a neutral conductor as a PEN contact.
  • the protective conductor is connected to the protective conductor bridge to enable a corresponding protective conductor function and to bring the protective conductors of the connector and mating connector into contact with one another.
  • the remaining conductors are connected to electrical contacts of the plug insert.
  • the explanations for the connector apply accordingly to the mating connector.
  • the protective conductor bridge is suitable for reliably attaching the plug insert, since it is designed as an electrical conductor and is therefore usually made of metal.
  • the protective conductor bridge thus has a high level of stability, resulting in a robust and reliable connector.
  • the connector is designed in such a way that the at least one connection area has a through hole.
  • the through hole allows a connecting screw or a screw bolt to be passed through, so that the plug insert and the protective conductor bridge can be fastened to one another, producing a screw connection.
  • the connector is designed in such a way that the at least one connection area is designed with a tubular body.
  • the tubular body has high strength for attachment of the plug insert.
  • the attachment can be, for example, on an outer wall of the tubular body or on the tubular body take place overall.
  • the tubular configuration can be formed by simply bending or folding the sheet metal.
  • the tubular body is preferably designed with a substantially rectangular cross-section. It is further preferred that the connection area is designed as a hollow body.
  • the connector is designed in such a way that the through-hole with the internal thread is designed with a passage.
  • the passage makes it possible to provide a threaded area with a greater thread length and a higher number of threads than is the case with the through hole alone.
  • the connection area is made of sheet metal
  • the material thickness of the sheet metal usually results in a short thread length, which can be increased by drawing through.
  • the passage can, for example, at the Simply produce the connecting area from sheet metal by appropriately forming the through-hole from the sheet metal.
  • the passage can be attached to the sheet metal as a separate component, for example by welding, soldering or other joining techniques.
  • the plug connector is designed in such a way that the protective conductor bridge has two connection areas that are formed on its axial end areas.
  • the two connection areas result in a reliable and durable attachment of the plug insert to the protective conductor bridge.
  • the protective conductor bridge can be stretched over the connection areas through the plug insert, so that it is not subject to the risk of deformation.
  • the connection areas are preferably formed at the end areas in the longitudinal axis of the protective conductor bridge.
  • the plug connector is designed in such a way that the protective conductor bridge has an elongate bridge main body, and the at least one connection region is formed laterally on the bridge main body.
  • the protective conductor bridge can be attached, for example, along a wall of the housing, and the connection areas can protrude from the protective conductor bridge into an interior space of the housing. This allows the plug insert to be easily attached to the protective conductor bridge.
  • the protective conductor bridge and the connection areas are particularly preferably arranged at a substantially right angle to one another.
  • the protective conductor bridge 3 of the second embodiment essentially corresponds to the protective conductor bridge 3 of the first embodiment, so that it can be used in exchange for the protective conductor bridge 3 of the first embodiment in the housing 2 described with reference to the first embodiment.
  • similar elements are denoted by the same reference numbers. Since the protective conductor bridges 3 of the second embodiment essentially correspond to those of the first embodiment agree, only their differences will be discussed here.
  • the protective conductor bridge 3 of the second embodiment differs from that of the first embodiment in the design of its connection areas 9.
  • the connection areas 9 of the protective conductor bridge 3 of the second embodiment each have a bottom area 17.
  • the sheet metal of the connecting areas 9 is bent upwards at the edges of the bottom area 17 in order to form a locking lug 14 and side walls 18 as described above.
  • In the bottom area 17 there is also a through hole 12 with a passage 13 as previously described, which has a corresponding internal thread.
