Patent ID: 7780457

Claim:
A connection terminal block ( 1 ) configured for providing electrical contact with and to be mounted onto a circuit board ( 3 ), the connection terminal block ( 1 ) having a housing made of insulating material ( 4 ), wherein the housing made of insulating material includes a first housing half ( 2 ) and a second housing half ( 43 ), at least one contact insert ( 5 ) contained within the first housing half, wherein the at least one contact insert is shaped of flat band material ( 6 ), whereby the band material ( 6 ) is connected with at least one spring-force element ( 7 ) in the form of a pivot spring ( 8 ), a socket contact ( 9 ) located in the second housing half, wherein the socket contact functions to plug the connection terminal block ( 1 ) onto the pin contact ( 10 ) of a circuit board ( 3 ) or of an electrical device; and, an actuation part ( 11 ) located on the front surface ( 19 ) of the first housing half within the housing made of insulating material ( 4 ), wherein the actuation part ( 11 ) functions to open at least one contact point ( 14 ), wherein the actuation part ( 11 ) includes at least one access aperture ( 12 ) for the insertion of an electrical conductor ( 13 ), characterized in that the actuation part ( 11 ) is accessible at several points by a tool ( 18 ), for causing axial displacement of the actuation part ( 11 ).
