Definitions

  • the invention relates to a connection connector. electrical conductor on a bar of a bar system and to an electrical connection assembly between a set of bars and at least one conductor cable.
  • Such an electrical connection assembly can be used in a connection cabinet, for example in a current distribution cabinet between several dwellings located on a street or to connect several networks, for the interconnection of transformers used for energy distribution to allow, for example example, maintenance operations on one or more of these transformers.
  • connection assembly is known, in particular, from FR-A-2 715 775 and includes connectors designed to be arranged in the vicinity of each other by being connected on bars of the bar system.
  • Each connector extends in a direction generally perpendicular to the direction bars and receives the end of a conductor that it allows to connect to the bar to which it is connected.
  • FR-A-2 731 847 it is known to make a system protected connection on a connection device electric of the aforementioned type, which includes jaws of reception of the terminals or knives of a fuse, one of these jaws being intended to be in contact with the bar while the other is scheduled to be in contact with one driver.
  • a bipartite insulating jacket is provided.
  • FR-A-2 751 465 discloses an electric circuit breaker provided an extractable fuse which includes jaws of receiving the terminals of a fuse and an insulating jacket formed of two half-shells and joined in a direction parallel to the direction of insertion of the fuse in the jaws.
  • These half-shells have a relatively geometry complex, especially because they include internal ribs, so that their molding requires the use of drawer molds. This complicates their production, which increases the cost price of the connector.
  • this method of assembling the insulating envelope does not not effectively hold an immobilizing screw in place the connector in question on a system bar with bars.
  • the insulating jacket of the connector is formed by two half-shells which are joined in a circumference essentially parallel to the exposed surface of the bar to which it is connected.
  • the geometry of these half-shells is therefore relatively simple since one of this forms a base in which the feet of the jaws while the other half-shell is suitable for come and style these jaws, along with a screw of immobilization of the connector on a bar and a clamp receiving the end of the conductor cable.
  • the invention also simplifies the mounting of the connector by compared to known devices since each jaw is effectively held in position by one of the half-shells before assembly of these two half-shells.
  • the invention also relates to a connection assembly electric between a busbar and a conductor cable which includes at least one connector as above described.
  • a connection assembly electric between a busbar and a conductor cable which includes at least one connector as above described.
  • the connector C shown in the figures is intended to be mounted on a bar 1 of a bar system, as known for example from FR-A-2 715 775.
  • the bar 1 is provided with an orifice 1 a for the passage of a locking screw 2 provided in the connector C and intended to cooperate with a nut, not shown, located under the bar 1 in FIG. 1.
  • the connector C is configured to receive one end 3 a of a conductive cable 3, this end being partly stripped. It is possible to use a cable 3, the end 3 a is not stripped, the sheath of this end being perforated by a toothing of the connector C. The use of a 3'-end has unstripped increases safety and facilitates live connections.
  • the connector C comprises two jaws 4 and 5 intended to be electrically connected respectively to the bar 1 and to the conductor 3.
  • the jaw 4 comprises a web 41 in which is defined a notch 42 extending in a direction generally parallel to the axis ZZ 'of the screw 2 which is also the central axis of the orifice 1 a in the mounted configuration of the connector C on the bar 1.
  • XX ' is noted the longitudinal axis of the bar 1 which is intersecting and perpendicular to the axis Z-Z'.
  • the axis YY ' is in fact a longitudinal axis of the connector C.
  • the jaw 4 is provided with a spring 43 exerting pressure on the notch 42.
  • the jaw 4 also forms a bowl 44 pierced with a central orifice 44 has to be aligned with the orifice 1a and allowing the passage of screw 2.
  • the jaw 5 also comprises a veil 51 generally parallel to the veil 41 of the jaw 4 and in which a notch 52 defined by a spring 53 is defined.
  • a sole 54 extends in the lower part of the jaw 5 in a direction generally perpendicular to that of the web 51 and forms a toothing 54 a on which is provided to be disposed a jumper or collar 6 for receiving the end 3 a of the conductor 3.
  • the collar 6 is provided with fins 6a for heat dissipation and fitted with a calibrated tightening screw 7.
  • This screw 7 comprises a threaded metal part 7 a having a polygonal end which cooperates with an insulating and breakable cap 7 b .
  • the central axis AA ′ of the toothing 54 has a non-zero angle ⁇ relative to the longitudinal axis YY ′ of the connector C, so that the end 3 a of the conductor 3 received in the collar 6 is inclined by this same angle ⁇ relative to this axis YY '.
  • This inclined nature of the end 3 a allows dense implantation of different connectors of the type of connector C on a bar system.
  • a fuse 8 is provided for connecting the jaws 4 and 5 and we note 8 a and 8 b its end knives which extend generally in the direction of the axis YY 'and are intended to be respectively engaged in the notches 42 and 52.

  • the half-shell 11 includes a base sole 110 extending in a direction generally parallel to the plane defined by the axes X-X 'and Y-Y'.
  • This sole 110 is pierced with holes 110a allowing air circulation around the fuse 8.
  • the flange 110 is also pierced by an orifice 110 b of the receiving trough 44, thus allowing a surface abutment of the bottom of the bowl 44 on the upper surface 1 b of the bar 1.
  • Two ribs 111 and 112 extend opposite the bar 1 in the interior volume of the half-shell 11 and thus separate three spaces 113, 114 and 115 intended to receive the jaw 4 and the screw 2 respectively in the space 113, the fuse 8 in the space 114, the jaw 5, the collar 6 and the end 3a in the space 115.
  • the ribs 111 and 112 are in fact formed by juxtaposed tabs, more particularly visible to Figures 1 and 4.

  • a similar construction is adopted on the side of the rib 122 which is lined with a parallel rib 122 ', a opening 123 for inserting a fuse knife being also defined and bordered by tabs provided with projections.
  • ribs 121 and 122 are formed by a succession of tabs separated by notches, as shown, for example, in the figure 4.
  • edges 116 b , 116 ′ b and 126 b are generally perpendicular to the axis XX ′, so that the half-shells 11 and 12 are joined along a circumference formed by these edges which extends in a plane generally parallel to axes XX 'and Y-Y', that is to say perpendicular to axis ZZ 'and to the direction of introduction F 1 .
  • legs 128, From the edges 126 b of the partitions 126, extend legs 128, flat, generally parallel to the partitions 126 and provided with two ends 128 a and 128 b separated by a notch 128 c .
  • the legs 128 are intended to be introduced into the housings 118 of the half-shell 11, while the ends 128 a and 128 b are arranged on either side of the lug 119 which is then received in the notch 128 c .
  • the geometry of the ends 128 a and 128 b is such that they are firmly immobilized by the cooperation of the rails 117 and the lug 119 once they are received in the housings 118. In other words, a snap-fastening by elastic deformation of the legs 128 during their introduction into the housings 118 is possible, this snap-fastening leading to effective locking of the half-shell 11 on the half-shell 12.
