  • Patent number: 7335029
    Abstract: A combination circuit board and clamping device includes a circuit board having a conductor strip that conducts electrical voltage. A connection for a shielded cable with a device to clamp the cable sheath is provided on the circuit board. This device is in contact with the conductor strip carrying the electrical voltage. The clamp device for the cable sheath consists of a contact piece with a metallic base plate and clamp springs that project on one side and are separated from one another, between which the cable insulated up to the cable sheath is received. The circuit board includes pass-through apertures into which to insert these clamp springs, and the contact piece with the cable end secured between contact springs is attached to the circuit board by means of a cable binder, for whose proper positioning the circuit board includes openings.
