Abstract (en)

[origin: EP2442403A1] A screwless connection terminal comprises contact element (1) to which conductor is to be electrically connected, and clamp spring (5) which conductor is to be clamped to contact surface (4) of the contact element. Clamp spring has clamping leg (7), abutting leg and tensioning leg (9). Clamp opening is formed in clamping leg, through which clamp opening, conductor is to be led. Abutting leg of clamp spring abuts on contact element. Tensioning leg of clamp spring connects abutting leg to clamping leg. Clamping leg further comprises conductor clamp extension. Screwless connection terminal comprises contact element (1) to which conductor is to be electrically connected, and clamp spring (5) which conductor is to be clamped to contact surface (4) of the contact element. Clamp spring has clamping leg (7), abutting leg and tensioning leg (9). Clamp opening is formed in clamping leg, through which clamp opening, conductor is to be led. Abutting leg of clamp spring abuts on contact element. Tensioning leg of clamp spring connects abutting leg to clamping leg. Clamping leg further comprises conductor clamp extension with clamping face which is aligned substantially parallel to contact surface of contact element. Conductor to be connected is to be clamped between surface section of clamping face of conductor clamp extension and contact surface of the contact element. Contact element comprises connecting section and contact surface. An independent claim is included for producing the screwless connection terminal.
