Abstract: A patchboard having a plurality of socket blocks (2), each of which has a box-like housing (3) with two end faces (4a, 4b) and four side faces (5a, 5b, 5c, 5d) which extend between the end faces (4a, 4b), the two end faces (4a, 4b) of the socket blocks (2) having at least one connection region (6). An increased degree of flexibility and ability to adapt to individual user requests is achieved due to each of at least two side faces (5a, 5b, 5c, 5d) of the socket blocks (2) having at least one latching element for connection to another socket block (2), and by at least one termination element (11) being arranged on at least one side of the patchboard (1), the termination element (11) having a mating latching element on at least one side face (12, 12b) for connecting the termination element to an adjacent socket block (2).

Abstract: A patchboard includes a plurality of honeycomb components which each have a box-shaped housing having two faces and four side surfaces. The two faces each have a connection region. At least two of the side surfaces have a latching element for connecting to another honeycomb component, and at least two of the honeycomb components have different cross-sections. The width and/or height of a honeycomb component having a larger cross-section is a multiple of the width and/or height of a honeycomb component having a smaller cross-section. The number of latching elements of a side surface having a greater width or greater height of a honeycomb component having a larger cross-section is a corresponding multiple of the number of latching elements of a side surface having a smaller width or smaller height of a honeycomb component having a smaller cross-section.

Abstract: The invention illustrates and describes a patchboard comprising a plurality of socket blocks (2), wherein the individual socket blocks (2) each have a box-like housing (3) with two end faces (4a, 4b) and four side faces (5a, 5b, 5c, 5d) which extend between the end faces (4a, 4b), and wherein the two end faces (4a, 4b) of the socket blocks (2) each have at least one connection region (6). The patchboard (1) according to the invention has an increased degree of flexibility and ability to adapt to individual requests of a user as a result of at least two side faces (5a, 5b, 5c, 5d) of the socket blocks (2) each having at least one latching element for connection to another socket block (2), and by at least one termination element (11) being arranged on at least one side of the patchboard (1), wherein the termination element (11) has a mating latching element on at least one side face (12, 12b), the termination element (11) being connected to an adjacent socket block (2) by means of said mating latching element.

Abstract: An electrical series terminal includes a first connecting portion which is connected via a first associate current bar to a first functional contact and a second connection portion being connected via a second associate current bar to a second functional contact. A functional zone is provided between the first connection portion and the second connection portion. The functional zone is configured to selectively and alternately receive and contact a plurality of functional elements such that when at least one functional element is introduced to the functional zone, the at least one functional element can be connected to the first and second functional contact. On the sides of the functional zone, a first and second connecting shaft are provided on the first and second connection sections.

Abstract: The invention relates to a spring-cage terminal block, having a bus bar and a leg spring for connecting a stripped conductor end piece of an electrical conductor, wherein the conductor end piece is inserted into a material passage of the bus bar and is clamped by means of the leg spring. According to the invention, the contact surface on the metal collar inner wall surface of the material passage has contact ribs extending along the insertion direction in order to form a linear contact pattern which extends in the insertion direction.

Abstract: A terminal block includes at least one connecting terminal housing that extends in a longitudinal direction and is row-capable in a transverse direction. The transverse direction is transverse to the longitudinal direction. The connecting terminal housing includes a first flange and a second flange. The first flange is disposed in a first area at a first end of the connecting terminal housing and extends in a first direction. The second flange is disposed in a second area at a second end of the connecting terminal housing and extends in a second direction that is different than the first direction.

Abstract: An electrical terminal includes an insulating housing, a conductor bar, strain-relief clamp connections and actuating elements located in the insulating housing for opening and closing the strain-relief clamp connections. The electrical terminal enables simple manual opening of the clamping site even when the strain-relief clamp connection is designed for leads with large cross section since the actuation element is made as an actuating cam that is eccentrically supported in the insulating housing. The actuating cam can be pivoted by an actuating tool out of a first position in which the strain-relief clamp connection is closed into a second position in which the strain-relief clamp connection is opened so that an electric lead can be inserted between the conductor bar and a through opening in the strain relief clamp connection.
