1. JuTi 1985 control device

The invention relates to an equipped with electronic display, operating and / or setting elements Mains current connectable control device, in particular a heating controller, consisting of one of the controller organs and a housing containing a mains connection part and at least one befe = on the open side of this housing continued, e.g. B. hinged cover.

Advantageously, such a controller is equipped with exchangeable, e.g. simply pluggable, modules, including one Program module equipped and includes a power supply unit assigned to the network connection part for connection to the Power grid.

If the modules are removed from time to time, the exposed connection parts carrying mains voltage are touched not excluded.

The object of the present invention is therefore to provide such a contact by a meaningful structure of a Reg = to reliably prevent lers of the type mentioned above and shield the part of the device carrying the mains voltage by means of a cover, which when the modules are accessed and to the power supply can only be removed with a tool, but taking into account the frontal dimensions of the controller should be kept as small and space-saving as possible.

It is also an object of the invention, in the area between those containing the electronic components Units and the mains connection part to create a simple but reliable coupling and the distances

between the units containing the display, operating and setting elements on the one hand and the electronic units On the other hand, to keep circuits containing units as low as possible.

All of these objects of the invention are achieved according to their most essential feature in that in one

the mains connection part has at least one replaceable module, preferably contains a bevy of interchangeable plug-in modules, which ver = in the operating state through the front of the housing closing cover are covered, and that this Ab = cover in turn at least one circuit board with the for Display, operation and / or setting of the controller required electronic circuits, see B. Micro = Processors, which can be electrically coupled to the modules or the mains connection part contained in the housing.

Because the plug-in modules and the display, operating = tion and setting elements are not arranged next to each other, but in several levels one above the other, can the front dimensions of the controller can be kept as small as possible. Thanks to the spatial separation of the electronic Part of the controller, this part can be easily coupled with the rest of the device and is easily exchangeable. When choosing one Suitable material for the cover, good electrical decoupling can be guaranteed.

According to a preferred embodiment of the invention = subject can cover two with each other by means of

In the drawing is an embodiment of the Erfin = subject matter illustrated.

In detail shows Fig.l the entire controller in diagrammatic form Representation and

2 the cover detached from the housing of the controller is also broken down in a diagram.

The housing, generally designated 1, comprises a plate-shaped, rear-side forming mains connection part 2 and a power supply unit 3 assigned to this mains connection part 2 on the front side. The housing 1 also contains a Number of exchangeable plug-in modules 4.

On the open front of the housing, for example, a cover 6 pivotable about hinges 5 is arranged and can be fastened in threaded bores 7 of the housing 1 by means of screws (not shown).

This cover 6 carries any display, operating and setting elements 10 or 8, 9 on its visible side. which are only indicated schematically. The plug-in modules 4 accessible after unscrewing the cover 6 can their
