Spring force terminal for conductors
A spring force terminal such as a direct plug-in terminal for connecting a flexible stranded conductor includes a housing having a chamber and a plug-in channel for the conductor into the chamber. A busbar or a clamping cage are provided and a clamping spring arranged in the chamber acts as a compression spring for fixing the electrical conductor on the busbar or the clamping cage in the region of a clamping point. The clamping spring has a clamping leg pivotable around a pivot axis, which is adjustable from a latching state in which it is latched in a latching position into a clamping state in which it is unlatched from the latching position and presses the electrical conductor against the busbar or the clamping cage. The latching state is produced by pressing on the clamping leg in the conductor insertion direction using a pusher wherein the clamping leg is releasable from the latching state using two different actuatable adjustment devices. The second release element is designed to release the pusher from the latching position to release the clamping leg from the latching state. The release element is arranged and formed laterally in relation to the pusher in the chamber in such a way that it acts on the pusher essentially perpendicularly to the conductor insertion direction to release the pusher from the latching position.
TOOL-LESS TERMINAL BLOCK
A tool-less terminal block includes an insulated base, a turning part, a conductive terminal, and a spring clamp. The insulated base has a cavity and a slot communicating to the cavity; the turning part is pivotally coupled to the insulated base; the conductive terminal is fixed to the bottom of the slot; the spring clamp is accommodated in the cavity and disposed at the top of the conductive terminal, and the spring clamp has a movable elastic arm pressing the conductive terminal to seal the slot, and the movable elastic arm has a link rod fixed to the turning part and operable together with the turning part. When the turning part is turned to a released position, the link rod is pulled by the turning part to drive the movable elastic arm away from the conductive terminal to open the slot, so as to provide a convenient use.
Contact insert and switch spring
A contact insert for a connecting terminal, wherein the contact insert has a busbar piece and a clamping spring for clamping an electrical conductor in a conductor insertion direction, wherein the busbar piece and the clamping spring form a clamping point for the electrical conductor to be clamped, and wherein the contact insert has a bushing contact for receiving a contact pin. The longitudinal extension direction of the bushing contact runs essentially perpendicular to the conductor insertion direction from the busbar piece. The bushing contact is designed to receive the contact pin perpendicular to the longitudinal extension direction of the bushing contact and to receive the contact pin in the longitudinal extension direction of the bushing contact.
PRINTED CIRCUIT BOARD PLUG CONNECTOR
A terminal strip is formed as a printed circuit board plug connector and has a strip-like housing composed of a plurality of terminal housings which are arranged alongside one another in an arranging direction X. The housings are mechanically connected to one another. The terminal housings each have a plugging face side on which they have at least one first plugging contact which can be plugged together with a corresponding plugging contact of a corresponding plug connector.
MODULAR PLUG CONNECTOR FOR A PRINTED CIRCUIT BOARD
A modular plug connector in a strip-shaped design can be plugged together with a corresponding mating plug connector such as a printed circuit board plug connector. The modular plug connector has a plurality of plug connector modules which are arranged alongside one another and are connected mechanically to one another using mechanical connectors to form the strip shape. The plug connector modules each have a module housing, at least one plugging surface with at least one plugging contact and preferably at least one conductor or solder terminal for connection to a printed circuit board. The plug connector has at least two plug connector modules of different designs and an adapter plug connector module is provided therebetween.
Conductor terminal having a busbar piece and a clamping spring
A conductor terminal with a busbar piece and a clamping spring. The clamping spring has a clamping limb which is oriented towards the busbar piece in order to form a clamping point for clamping an electric conductor between the clamping limb and the bus bar piece, a spring bracket which adjoins the clamping limb, and a contact limb, a vertical section of which extends transversely to the bus bar piece. The vertical section of the contact limb has a recess with edges which surround the bus bar piece. The bus bar piece has a contact wall which adjoins the wall surface of the contact limb vertical section extending transversely to the busbar piece. The wall surface lying on the vertical section side facing away from the clamping limb, and which is designed to support the vertical section of the contact limb on the contact wall.
Adjustable neutral bars and adjustable neutral bar assemblies
An adjustable neutral bar and adjustable neutral bar assemblies are provided. The bars and bar assemblies are adjustable to a desired number of taps. The bars and bar assemblies can have mating bar ends or clips that allow for easy connection of multiple bars to one another. Additionally, the bars and bar assemblies can have shear regions that allow for easy separation of a bar at a desired location.
ELECTRICAL POP OUT DEVICE
An electrical pop out device has an shroud and a pop out housing configured to be inside the shroud in a retracted position and to extend outside the shroud in an extended position. A guidance mechanism connects the pop out housing with the shroud and allows movement of the pop out housing with respect to the shroud between a retracted position and an extended position. The electrical pop out device includes an electrical connection for powering an electrical/electronic device in the pop out housing and/or charging a battery of the electrical/electronic device in the pop out housing. The electrical pop out device may also include audio, video and/or data connections for the electrical/electronic device in the pop out housing. In some embodiments, the electrical/electronic device is portable and the pop out housing is detachable from the shroud.
Power cable micro-junction-box for a strip light array
A junction box includes a bottom portion including a first end portion and a second end portion and a top portion configured to mate with the bottom portion. The top and bottom portions form a first opening to receive a first cable at the first end portion and form a second opening to receive a second cable at the second end portion. Interchangeable connection blocks are included for receiving wires of different gauges to make connections between the first cable and the second cable. A connection block receiving-feature is formed in the bottom portion to secure the connection blocks.
