Device for connecting two electrical conductors
The invention relates to a device for connecting two electrical conductors ( 4, 5 ), comprising a metallic clamp ( 1 ) that is designed as a pipe section and that comprises in the wall thereof at least two through holes provided with a thread for receiving clamping screws ( 2 ) provided with an external thread. In the pipe section of the clamp ( 1 ), at least one central through hole provided with a thread is furnished between the two through holes in order to receive a fixing screw ( 3 ) provided with an external thread, wherein the fixing screw has a tapered, approximately wedge-shaped tip ( 11 ), which, in the assembled position, lies rigidly against the end faces of the two conductors ( 4, 5 ) inserted into the pipe section. The tip ( 11 ) provided with an external thread is screwed into a hole ( 10 ) of the fixing screw ( 3 ) provided with an internal thread, and the external thread of the tip ( 1 ) runs opposite to the external thread of the fixing screw ( 3 ).
1. Device for connecting two electrical conductors comprising:
a metal clamp constructed as a pipe piece which in its wall has at least two throughholes provided with a thread for receiving clamping screws provided with an external thread, wherein
in the pipe piece of the clamp, between the two throughholes, at least a middle throughhole is provided with a thread; the pipe piece holding a fixing screw provided with an external thread having a substantially narrowing conical tip which in the mounted position contacts tightly with end faces of the two conductors when inserted into the pipe piece; wherein
the conical tip provided with an external thread is screwed into a recess of the fixing screw provided with an internal thread; and
the external thread of the tip is constructed to be oppositely directed to the external thread of the fixing screw.
2. Device according to claim 1 , wherein, in the pipe piece of the clamp, two diametrically oppositely arranged middle throughholes are located for receiving fixing screws.
3. Device according to claim 1 , wherein the surface of the conical tip is one of roughened or equipped with a plurality of small projections.
