Patent number: 11336035Abstract: A clamping spring for a screwless connection terminal for clamping a conductor, has a clamping limb, a contact limb, and a tensioning limb, the tensioning limb being connected to the clamping limb and the contact limb, and the clamping limb and the contact limb being designed as intersecting limbs. In the clamping limb, a clamping opening is provided, through which the contact limb extends, such that the contact limb is in contact with an edge of the clamping opening remote from the tensioning limb in a pretensioned manner and an exposed wire end of a conductor can be clamped with the contact limb onto a contact surface of a contact element of a screwless connection terminal. Furthermore, the clamping limb has a clamping extension having a clamping surface.Type: GrantFiled: October 30, 2019Date of Patent: May 17, 2022Assignee: Bals Elektrotechnik GmbH & Co.

Patent number: 10554028Abstract: A housing construction kit that includes at least one plug device and/or one fuse. The kit contains a housing base body with numerous installation openings and numerous installation plates. A first coding means is formed on each opening and a second coding means is formed on each plate. Every first coding means of an opening has a unique first coding and every second coding means of a plate has a unique second coding. Every second coding means of a plate is designed to be complementary to at most one first coding means of an opening and every second coding means of a plate is designed to be complementary to a first coding means of another opening as every second coding means of a plate, which is designed to be suitable for assembly of at least one plug device.Type: GrantFiled: January 4, 2017Date of Patent: February 4, 2020Assignee: Bals Elektrotechnik GmbH & Co.

Patent number: 9660358Abstract: A contact element for an electrical plug connecting device, having a molded first end section and a molded elongated receiving section which defines a longitudinal axis for mechanical and electrical coupling and/or receiving a mating contact element designed to be complementary to the contact element of a plug connecting device to be paired with the electrical plug connecting device, both of which are manufactured of an electrically conductive material. The elongated receiving section extends essentially cylindrically from the first end section. This end section as well as the elongated cylindrical receiving section are molded to be free of seams and butt joints by shaping the electrically conducting material by means of a force acting at least predominantly parallel to the longitudinal axis, and at least the receiving section molded by shaping the electrically conducting material forms a cylindrical interior sheathed by the molded electrically conducting material along the longitudinal axis.Type: GrantFiled: June 20, 2016Date of Patent: May 23, 2017Assignee: Bals Elektrotechnik GmbH & Co.
