Definitions

  • the present invention relates to an electrical supply ramp for current consuming devices, such as lighting systems.
  • Electrical supply ramps are already known which present a succession of pairs of electrical contacts intended to each receive a current-consuming element, these ramps comprising metallic conductive strips with projections forming the electrical contacts which pass through slots made in an insulating support. .
  • British patent GB-A-2,140,548 relates to a support for an automobile lamp consisting of two superimposed metal plates separated by an insulating layer. Conductive tabs formed in the plates are folded on the same side of the assembly and pass through a clearance provided for this purpose to supply one or more bulbs. The assembly is inserted into a corresponding clearance of an insulating support.
  • the present invention aims to simplify the mounting of the components of known lighting systems and relates to a light bar having a succession of pairs of electrical contacts comprising at least two superimposed conductive strips covered by an insulating body, having at distances predetermined plates arranged at 90 ° through a clearance provided for this purpose and whose free end is arranged so as to position at least indirectly an electrical contact of a current consuming element.
  • the insulating bodies consist of a coating applied to each conductive strip, with the exception of contact pads, the conductive strips having electrically insulated openings for the passage of the pads of the strip (s) arranged below.
  • the insulating coating consists of an enamel applied to the oven on each metal strip, with the exception of the contact pads.
  • Figure 1 is an exploded perspective view of the main components of a ramp, in a preferred embodiment.
  • FIG. 2 is a longitudinal section of the assembled assembly, between the arrows II-II in FIG. 1.
  • FIG. 3 is a cross section of the assembly mounted according to III-III in FIG. 2.
  • the ramp is formed by superimposing an insulating protective strip 1, a first conductive strip 2, a second conductive strip 4, each strip being protected by an insulating body constituted by coatings 3 and 5 applied respectively to bands 2 and 4.
  • the upper face 12 of the strip has an adhesive layer protected by a detachable strip 14 which will be removed when the assembly is assembled.
  • the underside 13 may also include an adhesive layer protected by a strip 15 which will be removed to allow the assembly to be fixed at the desired location.
  • the first conductive strip 2 is intended to be connected, by any means known to those skilled in the art, to one of the terminals of an electrical supply, not shown in the drawing.
  • the conductive strip 2 comprises, at regular intervals, a succession of slots 22, the presence of which will be justified later.
  • the connection members 23 have come from manufacturing in the conductive strip 2 and are constituted by plates folded at 90 ° relative to the strip 2, which leaves therein a corresponding recess 24. Each plate 23 has at its end a round opening 25 and a U-shaped cutout 26 delimiting a tongue 27 connected in its upper part to the plate 23 and whose free edge 28 is parallel to the fold line 29. The distance between the edge 28 and the fold line 29 corresponds to the cumulative thickness of the insulating coating 5 and of the second conductive strip 4.
  • the connection members 23 are regularly spaced along the length of the conductive strip 2.
  • the second conductive strip 4 is connected to the second terminal of the aforementioned electrical supply and has a succession of transverse clearances 42 whose dimensions are greater than the section of the plates 23, to avoid any contact between the lower and upper conductive strips 2 and 4.
  • the second conductive strip also comprises, at regular intervals, connection members constituted by plates 43 which have come from manufacturing in the conductive strip which creates corresponding recesses 44 there.
  • Each plate 43 has at its end a round opening 45.
  • the conductive strips 2 and 4 are identical and arranged in opposite directions, the slots 22 being located to the right of the plates 23 while the slots 42 are arranged to the left of the plates 43.
  • the only difference between the strips is the position of the fold line 29 or 49, visible in Figure 2.
  • the insulating coatings 3 and 5 are formed by applying an enamel to the oven. It is obvious that the insulating coating must not extend over the edges of the openings 25 and 45 intended to receive the contacts of the current-consuming element. As shown in FIG. 2, the insulating body 3 or 5 can be stopped around the fold lines 29 and 49.
  • the light strip of Figure 1 is shown in the assembled state in Figures 2 and 3.
  • the assembly of the elements detailed above is done by superimposition of the conductive strips 2 and 4 and the assembly is carried out by folding the tabs 27 on the upper face of the covering 5.
  • the insulating protective strip 1 is fixed along the lower strip 2 by gluing, for example.
  • provision may be made to assemble the elements of the ramp by rivets passing through openings provided for this purpose, while ensuring that the dimensions of these are sufficient to avoid any electrical contact.
  • a halogen shuttle lamp 63 is partially shown, comprising at each end a contact loop 64.
  • a contact terminal 7 intended to be inserted on the plates 23 or 43.
  • the terminal 7 is for example constituted by a folding comprising a central part 71 in a U, the branches 72 and 73 of which are arranged on either side of the plate 23 or 43.
  • the branch 72 has two lateral wings 74 which are curved to maintain the terminal on the contact plate.
  • the end 75 of the branch 73 is still bent upwards by about 180 ° to provide a housing 76 for the lamp contact loop 64.
  • the terminal 7 is shown in dotted lines in FIG. 3 so as not to overload the drawing.
  • the distance between a pair of plates 23 and 43 intended to receive a light element is of a dimension corresponding to the standard lengths of commercial shuttle lamps, for example 40 mm and provision may be made to arrange the lamps every 55 mm.
  • the contact loops are distances of approximately 43 mm, which makes it possible to add the jumpers 7 described above.
  • each plate can support two current consuming elements, one on the right and the other on the left, and in this case the spacing between the successive plates corresponds to the length of these elements.
  • the plate 23, which crosses the upper conductive strip 4 and its covering 5 through the slot 42, comprises two U-shaped cutouts 26A and 26B, defining two tongues 27A and 27B intended to be folded in opposite direction, so that their free edges 28A and 28B come to bear on either side of the slot 42 to ensure the assembly of the assembly.
  • the two tabs can be folded back on the same side of the plate.
  • the tabs can also be produced on the edges of the plate rather than at its center.
  • the invention is not limited to a light bar by means of bulbs, and that it is possible as a variant to use the principle of fitting two conductive strips into a profile. plastic, by adapting the spacing and the shapes of the connection elements to other light sources or all current consuming elements.
  • the number of conductive strips is not limited to two, a higher number making it possible to obtain a ramp with several lighting intensities.
