GROUNDED CONDUCTOR CONNECTION FOR CONNECTION TO A SUPPORTING RAIL

摘要

23724-185 GROUNDED CONDUCTOR CONNECTION FOR CONNECTION TO A SUPPORTING RAIL In this grounded conductor connection for connection to a supporting rail (3) with a leg (2) to which a multi-level electric terminal is allocated, a slide (10) is disposed in the terminal body (7) which bridges the space between the leg (2) of the supporting rail and the outwardly offset binding post (4) of the grounded conductor connection, which has on the one hand a clamping surface (11) lying below the binding post (4) and on the other hand a serrated clamping zone (13) acting on the upper side of the supporting rail leg (2), and which is guided by means of diagonal guide members (16, 17) on the terminal body in accordance with a diagonally outwards, downwardly directed clamping motion. It is thereby locked into position with the leg (2) of the supporting rail by means of the binding post (4) with a binding power independent of the cross-section of the inserted conductor. The serrated clamping zone (13) can scratch open anticorrosion layers on the leg (2) of the supporting rail as a result of a horizontal component of movement.
