Abstract

A fuse device comprising a housing, at least two connection lugs, a connecting element between the connection lugs, and an actuator. The actuator moves the connecting element from a closed position, in which it connects the connection lugs, to an open position, in which it is disconnected from at least one of the connection tabs. A particularly well-conducting connection between the connection lugs and the connecting element, which can nevertheless be easily disconnected by the actuator, is achieved by the connecting element being interference-fitted between the connection lugs.

Abstract

A high-current cable connector comprises two metal parts and a interlocking member. The interlocking member moves the metal parts outward so that two abutting surfaces per metal part are pressed together. The alignment of the abutting surfaces causes two other surfaces per metal part, the contact surfaces, to also be pressed together and the cable connector is locked. This results in an easy-to-assemble cable connector with low contact resistance and high thermal capacity.

Abstract

The invention relates to a high-current cable connector (1) comprising two metal parts (20, 40) and a locking element (60). The metal parts (20, 40) are moved outward by means of the locking element (60) such that two abutment surfaces (22, 28, 42, 48) per metal part (20, 30) are pressed against each other. The orientation of the abutment surfaces (22, 28, 42, 48) has the result that two additional surfaces per metal part, the contact surfaces (24, 26, 44, 46), are likewise pressed against each other and the cable connector (1) is locked. This results in an easy-to-mount cable connector having low contact resistance and having high heat capacity.
