  • an automatic terminal for connecting two electrical conductors to the same electrical potential, comprising a metal body intended to be connected to said electrical potential, delimiting a housing for receiving the two conducting cores of said electrical conductors, an access opening intended to to be traversed by said conductive cores to engage in said receiving housing, a partition wall which extends substantially perpendicularly to the plane of said access opening to separate in two parts said receiving housing and pressure means reported on said body, adapted to bear elastically on either side of said partition on said conductive cores to keep them in contact with said body.
  • connection terminal is advantageously integrated in a modular electrical equipment, that is to say an apparatus intended to be disposed contiguously next to another modular electrical equipment on the same support.
  • It also relates to electrical equipment whose insulating housing houses such an automatic terminal connection.
  • the inner receiving housing In the automatic terminals of the aforementioned type admitting two electrical conductors, the inner receiving housing must be large enough to accommodate the conductive cores of the electrical conductors.
  • the access opening to the double receiving housing is accordingly wide enough to allow the introduction of said conductive cores side by side through said opening in said receiving housing.
  • the conductive core is introduced through its access opening. stripped of the electrical conductor so that the conductive core causes the elastic deformation of said pressure means of the terminal which then bear elastically on the conductive core to press against the metal body of the terminal.
  • said terminal comprises arrangements for guiding the conductor cores of the conductors towards the contact portion of said terminal and to prevent one of the conductors badly introduced into said terminal hinders the introduction of the other driver or induces a bad positioning of this other driver.
  • Known arrangements for guiding conductors in a dual automatic terminal include partitions of insulating material reported in the housing housing said automatic terminal.
  • the installer must intervene positively on said pressure means, for example using the tip of a tool, to deform them in order to be able to introduce conductive cores conductors in the housing of reception of said terminal. Then the installer releases the deformation exerted on said pressure means so that they support against conductive cores introduced into said receiving housing to press and hold against the metal body of the terminal.
  • the present invention proposes an automatic terminal as defined in the introduction, wherein said partition wall is formed with said body to form with it a single piece.
  • said partition wall passes through said access opening to extend on either side thereof, on one side inside said housing. receiving and on the other side outside said receiving housing.
  • said partition partition guides at best and in depth each conductor core of electrical conductor towards the contact portion of said terminal.
  • This separation wall prevents cross positioning of one of said conductors in said terminal and thus avoids any bad electrical contact between a conductor and the terminal.
  • the invention also proposes an electrical apparatus comprising an insulating casing which houses an automatic terminal as mentioned above and which comprises two inner ducts, one end of which opens out on one side of said casing and of which another end emerges opposite said access opening of said automatic terminal on one side of said partition wall.
  • the electrical equipment according to the invention is a modular apparatus whose housing consists of a stack of insulating partitions.
  • FIG. 1 there is shown a modular electrical apparatus which comprises an insulating housing 10 in the form of a generally rectangular wafer.
  • This housing 10 has two parallel main lateral faces 17 which rise over the entire height of said housing, a front face 11, a rear face 12, an upper transverse face 13 and a lower transverse face 14 all perpendicular to said lateral main faces 17.
  • base module which is of the order of 18 mm.
  • the housing 10 comprises conventionally in its rear face 12 a notch 12A for mounting the electrical equipment on a rail (not shown).
  • the front face 11 of the housing 10 parallel to the rear face 12, has in projecting, in its central zone, a front portion 11A through which said housing 10 is intended to emerge from a plastron (not shown), through a window of this plastron, when it is in place on a rail, for example in an electrical cabinet.
  • the housing 10 consists of a stack of a plurality of insulating partitions.
  • the partitions have lateral main faces contiguous to each other, their slices forming by stacking the front, rear, transverse upper and lower transverse faces of said housing.
  • the housing consists of two semi-thick shells assembled by their edges in a median joint plane, each shell having a side main side of the housing.
  • the housing 10 houses automatic electrical connection terminals 100 for serving the electrical equipment via electrical conductors coming from the network.
  • each automatic terminal 100 is a dual terminal which allows the connection of two electrical conductors 1 to the same electrical potential.
  • It comprises a metal body 110 intended to be connected to said electrical potential, delimiting a receiving housing 101 of the two conductive cores 1B of said electrical conductors 1, and an access opening 114 intended to be traversed by said conductive cores 1 B for s' engage in said receiving housing 101.
  • the body 110 is here in the form of a metal blade cut and folded so as to form, on the one hand, a rear portion 111 of electrical connection to the electrical elements of said electrical equipment, and, on the other hand, a part before 112, to which belongs said access opening 114, attached to said rear portion 111 by a bent portion 113, said receiving housing 101 being defined between said front portions 112 and rear 111 of the metal blade.
  • Each automatic terminal 100 further comprises a partition wall 116 which extends substantially perpendicularly to the plane of said access opening 114 to separate in two parts said receiving housing 101.
  • the partition wall 116 has a certain height, so it extends beyond the thickness of said access opening 114 outside thereof.
  • said partition wall 116 is formed with said body 110 to form with it a single piece. It is therefore part of the metal blade that constitutes said body 110.
  • the partition wall 116 of the terminal crosses said access opening 114 to extend on either side thereof.
  • a portion 116A of the partition wall 116 extends from one side of the plane of the access opening 114 to the interior of said receiving housing 101 and another portion 116B of the partition wall 116 extends from the other side of the plane of the access opening 114 outside said receiving housing 101 towards the faces of the housing 10.
  • said partition wall 116 is attached by a lug 115 to a side edge 111B of the rear portion 111 of said body 110.
  • this partition wall 116 is attached to the end of a portion of this tab 115 which extends cantilevered above the rear portion 111 of said body 110 so that said partition wall 116 shares in two equal parts the access opening 114.
  • said partition wall 116 comprises a portion 116C engaged in a notch 117 provided in the middle of an edge 114A delimiting said access opening 114.
  • the notch 117 whose side faces are brought closer to the opposite side faces of the partition wall 116, holds said partition wall 116 in the middle portion of the access opening 114 and the receiving housing 101 of the automatic terminal 100.
  • each automatic terminal 100 comprises pressure means 120 attached to said body 110 and adapted to bear elastically on either side of the partition wall 116 on the conductive cores 1 B of the conductors 1 to keep them in contact with said body 110.
  • said pressure means 120 attached to said body 110 are arranged on the body 110 so that when the conductive core stripped of an electrical conductor is introduced into the terminal through said access opening 114, it itself causes the elastic deformation of said pressure means 120 which then bear elastically on said conductive core to press against the metal body 110 of the terminal.
  • said pressure means comprise a prestressed metal leaf spring 120 attached to the front face 112A of said front portion. 112 of the metal blade constituting said body 110 so as to hook on an edge 114B of said access opening 114.
