  • Patent number: 10355377
    Abstract: A clamping arrangement includes: two spring-force terminals, the two spring-force terminals each including a clamping cage and a spring, each of the two clamping cages being able to receive an electrical conductor pushed in an insertion direction and to clamp the conductor between the cage and the spring, a first insertion direction of a first of the two spring-force terminals and a second insertion direction of a second of the two spring-force terminals being arranged at an angle larger than 0° to one another. The two spring-force terminals are arranged one behind the other in one of the insertion directions of the electrical conductor. The first insertion direction of the first of the two spring-force terminals and the second insertion direction of the second of the two spring-force terminals are arranged at a right angle to one another or counter to one another.

  • Patent number: 10218089
    Abstract: A contacting device for bringing an electrical conductor into contact with an electrical conductor path includes a housing having a first opening for inserting the electrical conductor into a cavity in the housing and a second opening for inserting the electrical conductor path into the cavity in the housing, and a bow collector including a first portion, which is arranged in the cavity in the housing, and a second portion. The bow collector is designed such that the electrical conductor can be pressed against the electrical conductor path by the first portion of the bow collector after the electrical conductor and electrical conductor path have been inserted into the cavity in the housing, as a result of which the electrical conductor is retained on the electrical conductor path in a clamping position so as to be in contact with the electrical conductor path.

  • Patent number: 9793652
    Abstract: A contacting device has a housing having a first opening for inserting the electrical conductor and the electrical plug into a cavity in the housing, and having a second opening for inserting the electrical conducting track into the cavity in the housing. The contacting device further has a contact bridge which is arranged in the cavity in the housing and comprises a first portion for fixing the electrical conductor to the electrical conducting track in a force fit, and a second portion for retaining the electrical plug on the electrical conducting track and pressing it thereagainst.
