Description

吊顶系统
本申请是名称为“吊顶系统中的导电”、国际申请日为2006年5月11日、国际申请号为PCT/US2006/018327、国家申请号为200680025169.6的发明专利申请的分案申请。
技术领域
本发明涉及一种吊顶系统，特别是涉及一种具有嵌于格栅框架中的导电材料的顶棚。通过利用电分接头（electrical tap）与导电材料组合，顶棚系统能够在网格框架的平面上方、下方和该网格框架的平面内分配低压电。
背景技术
常规型顶棚格栅框架包括多个沿顶棚的长度延伸的主格栅元件及其间的交叉格栅元件。主元件和交叉元件使顶棚形成由多边形开口构成的格栅，功能设备例如顶棚砖瓦、照明器具、扬声器等等可插入其中并支承于其中。格栅框架和顶棚砖瓦系统可在生活或工作空间与安装在头顶上的基础设施系统之间提供视觉屏障。
对顶棚环境中具有电功能性例如电力和信号传输的需要日益增加。由于包括美观效果在内的若干原因，常规方法包括在顶棚格栅框架上方的通风空间中安装电缆槽盒和电接线盒。这种系统产生复杂的布线网络，其占据顶棚格栅上方的有限空间，并且一旦安装之后难以维修和重新布置。而且，这些方法受到以下限制，即这些方法提供至顶棚环境的电不能从相对于顶棚平面的所有方向接入。换句话说，能够容易地从通风空间接入电，但不能从格栅框架平面内或格栅框架平面下方的区域接入电。因此，需要为顶棚提供可从格栅框架的平面上方、下方和内部接入的电功能性。
发明内容
本发明的顶棚系统包括具有多个设置在基本上水平的平面中的格栅元件的格栅框架。导电材料嵌入这些格栅元件中的至少一个中。这种嵌有导电材料的格栅元件包括至少一个槽以便使得导电材料的部分露出。至少一个分接头附连至格栅元件以便使得它与槽对齐并且又与导电材料对齐。每个分接头包括壳体、导体接合装置和分接头导体。导体接合装置与嵌入格栅元件中的导电材料及分接头导体形成连接。
这种顶棚系统提供了若干优点，包括但不限于：提供了简化的方式来从相对于格栅框架的平面的所有方向接入电；由于能够使用标准格栅型式分配电，保持了顶棚的美观性；以及能够在无需改动格栅的情况下更换或重新安置设备。

具体实施方式
现在参考附图，其中同样的部件在各图中自始至终使用相同的参考数字。图1示出了顶棚系统的一部分，示出了本发明的多种可选特征。常规型吊顶系统包括多个格栅元件，这些格栅元件形成常规型格栅框架。每个格栅元件可通过常规手段如折叠和冲压而由单块金属薄板如钢或铝形成。
在图1-4中所示的示例实施例中，每个格栅元件10包括竖直腹板部分12，该竖直腹板部分12在顶边缘14处与中空管壳部分30形成一体并在底边缘15处与凸缘部分20形成一体。凸缘部分20形成于底边缘15上并沿着底边缘15对中。凸缘部分20具有顶表面21和底表面23。
在图2和3中所示的示例实施例中，上、下导体接入槽22、22'、24、24'形成在竖直腹板部分12的每侧。上导体接入槽22形成在竖直腹板部分12的第一侧13中，可与下导体接入槽24沿纵向对齐或沿纵向偏移开。图2示出了沿纵向偏移开的槽22和24。类似地，上导体接入槽22'可与下导体接入槽24'对齐或沿纵向偏移开。不论是哪种情况，如图3中所示，上导体接入槽22和22'都在竖直腹板部分12的相对两侧彼此沿横向对齐。同样，下导体接入槽24和24'彼此沿横向对齐。
常规型导电条40嵌入竖直腹板部分12内。导电条40包括分别封装着第一和第二导体46和48的绝缘体44，第一和第二导体可由如铜、导电塑料和导电纤维之类的材料形成，但并不限于这些。关于极性，一个导体为正而另一个为负。导体46、48竖直地隔开并且彼此平行地延伸，以便使得上槽22和22'与导体46沿横向对齐，而下槽24和24'与导体48沿横向对齐。
转向图3，分接头60附连至格栅元件10的腹板12和凸缘部分20。分接头60包括壳体62，该壳体62覆盖格栅元件10的竖直腹板部分12和凸缘部分20。优选地，壳体62形状与格栅元件10紧密相符以便在卷曲（crimping）时提供简便性，如下所述。壳体62的相符形状为制造用于顶棚系统的顶棚板8的安装提供了余隙，而不必改变板的尺寸。
分接头60还包括导体接合装置50。在图3中所示的构型中，导体接合装置为多个卷曲连接器（crimp connector）。每个卷曲连接器50至少部分地嵌入壳体62中并且在壳体62中的位置使得当壳体附连至格栅元件时，每个卷曲连接器与导体接入槽22、22'、24、24'横向对齐，且又与相应的扁平导线46、48横向对齐。每个导体接入槽22、22'、24、24'允许将卷曲连接器50插入竖直腹板部分12中。这样，当使用常规型卷曲工具卷曲分接头壳体62时，卷曲连接器50能够刺穿导电条40的绝缘体44并且与导体46或48形成电接触。绝缘体44由足够软的材料形成以便容易由卷曲连接器50插入。绝缘体44的示例材料包括塑料、橡胶和有机泡沫。
分接头60还包括优选地嵌入分接头壳体62中的分接头导体64和65。类似于导电条40的导体46和48，对于极性，一个分接头导体为正而另一个为负。每个分接头导体64、65在一端附连至卷曲连接器50而在相对端附连至连接柱66。每个连接柱66部分地嵌入壳体62中，从壳体62的外表面向外延伸并且用作电力设备的连接器。示例性电力设备包括照明器具、低压照明器具、扬声器、照相机、马达、运动传感器和烟雾探测器。
图2和5示出了一种替代示例构型，其中导电条40嵌入格栅元件10的下凸缘部分20中。在这种构型中，导体接入槽52和54形成于格栅元件10的下凸缘部分20中。更具体地说，接入槽52和54在竖直腹板部分12的相对两侧上形成于下凸缘部分20的上表面21中。导体接入槽52和54可彼此沿纵向对齐或沿纵向偏移开。可选地，导体接入槽（未示出）可形成在下凸缘部分20的底表面23中，以便使得导体接入槽与导体接入槽52沿横向对齐，并且导体接入槽与导体接入槽54沿横向对齐。
在这种构型中，导体46和48水平地隔开并且沿格栅元件的纵向彼此平行地延伸，以便使得接入槽52与导体46沿横向对齐并且接入槽54与导体48沿横向对齐。此外，分接头60附连至格栅元件10的凸缘部分20。应当指出，还可使用覆盖凸缘部分20及竖直腹板部分12的分接头60。不论是哪种情况，每个卷曲连接器50在壳体62中的位置都使得卷曲连接器50与相应的导体接入槽52、54沿横向对齐，并且因此又与相应的导体46、48对齐。
第三示例实施例示于图2和4中。第一和第二竖直地隔开的导体76和78分别嵌入管壳部分30内。每个竖直地隔开的导体76、78容纳于绝缘体74中。第一和第二导体接入槽72和73分别形成于格栅元件10的中空管壳部分30中。第一和第二导体接入槽72、73形成于管壳部分30的相对两侧并且彼此沿横向偏移开。因此，第一导体接入槽72与导体76对齐而第二接入槽73与导体78对齐。
转向图4，分接头80附连至格栅元件10的管壳部分30并且形状至少与格栅元件10的管壳部分30紧密相符。分接头80包括壳体82，壳体82可由多个部件或单个件构造而成。在图4中所示的示例实施例中，分接头壳体82包括第一半体85和第二半体87。壳体82由如塑料或橡胶之类的绝缘材料形成。每个半体85、87形成为覆盖着管壳部分30的至少一侧。
U形接触件90和92分别部分地嵌入第一和第二半体85、87的每一个中。每个接触件90、92具有相同的部件，在这里将参考接触件90进行描述。接触件90具有下臂94，该下臂94具有适于接合导体78的下表面的槽口96和用于刺穿绝缘体74的尖端98。接触件90还具有上臂95，该上臂95具有适于接合导体78的上表面的槽口97和用于刺穿绝缘体74的尖端99。接触件90的下臂94和上臂95通过基部100相连。基部100嵌入半体85中，下臂94和上臂95延伸穿过管壳部分30中的导体接入槽73。连接柱102连接至接触件90的基部100，该连接柱102从半体85的外表面向外延伸并且用作电器等等的连接装置。
以上给出了对本发明的示例实施例的描述来帮助理解本发明。应当理解，本发明并不限于此处所述的特定实施例，而是在不背离本发明的范围的情况下，能够进行各种改动、重新布置和替代，本发明所属领域的普通技术人员对此将会清楚。
例如，出于说明性目的，各图自始至终示出了T形架（T-bar）格栅元件，然而，应当指出，还可使用各种构型的格栅元件，如Armstrong World Industries,Inc销售的格栅元件。更特别而言，格栅元件10的下凸缘部分20可形成轨道120或托架，如图5A和5B中所示。类似地，呈轨道形式的盖可安装于格栅元件10的下凸缘部分20上。整个轨道120长度可用于从顶棚平面的下方插入功能设备。扁平线材导电条40容放在轨道中，如图6A和6B中所示。为了从格栅框架的平面上方接入扁平线材导电条40，可在轨道120中形成孔122。
以下权利要求书意欲覆盖属于本发明的真正精神和范围内的全部此类改动和变化。
