Definitions

  • the invention relates to a fastening device for a transformer module and a signal transmitter for mounting on a signal mast.
  • Fastening devices for signal transmitters on the signal mast are known per se.
  • the German utility model G 89 02 750 describes a combination holder that is used to attach a signal transmitter to a signal mast for traffic light signal systems.
  • a traffic signal system is already described in DE-OS 32 30 761, in which each signal transmitter is fed via a single two-wire line and is supplied with a separate control line for switching the individual signal lamps. This system is operated using low-voltage technology.
  • a transformer is to be used for the voltage conversion in addition to the rectifier and associated components for several signal transmitters or signal transmitter combinations, possibly for all signal transmitter combinations a signaling mast can be provided.
  • the object of the invention is therefore to provide a fastening device for a signal transmitter, which makes it possible to attach a power supply unit, to form a wiring or connection chamber, and to ensure a simple fastening or mounting option on the signal mast.
  • the fastening device In addition to the actual signal transmitter, which generally consists of three signal transmitter chambers, the fastening device according to the invention also allows the connection of a transformer module, which carries out the voltage conversion for several signal transmitters. Furthermore, this fastening device creates a terminal space in which the supply cable is preferably clamped and the signaling cable likewise introduced there can be routed and optionally wound up.
  • the signal transmitter can be attached and fastened to the signal mast, either at the head end or also on a longitudinal mast, such as on the whip mast, in a tried and tested manner.
  • the fastening device which is formed by the lid 3, the floor pan 1 and the combination holder 1b, and the transformer module 2 is shown.
  • the fastening device is fastened with the combination holder 1b at the head end of the signal mast 14 here with tensioning straps 13.
  • the fastening device is attached to the fastening hook 1a at the upper end of the mast 14.
  • the head end of the signal mast 14 is covered with the mast hood 9.
  • the signal generator 10 is fastened to the fastening device (1, 3) according to the invention with its upper end.
  • the lower end of the signal transmitter 10 is additionally fixed in a known manner with the separate combination holder on the signal mast.
  • the fastening device has a floor pan 1 which has on one side the molded combination holder 1b with the fastening hook 1a and a predetermined breaking point 1f.
  • the predetermined breaking point 1f serves to knock off the fastening hook 1a if the fastening device is not to be fastened at the head end of a signal mast, but instead extends longitudinally on the signal mast, for example on a whip mast.
  • the combination holder 1b has a U-shaped channel area 1c through which the supply or signaling cable 4a, 4b or 5a, 5 coming from the signaling mast is guided.
  • the floor pan 1 is closed by a cover 3 via latching devices and forms a terminal space in which a terminal block 7 is arranged.
  • the cable ends 4c, d of the supply cable are connected to this.
  • the latching of the lid can take place, for example, with a latching lug 1p and a corresponding recess 3b in the lid and a latching tongue 1q with a corresponding recess 3c in the lid 3, the latching nose and latching tongue being integrally formed on the floor pan 1.
  • the latching tongue 1q can expediently be unlatched using a tool 12.
  • the supply cable 4a, b which can have, for example, a power line with a cross section of three times 1.5 mm2 and an integrated coaxial cable with a cross section of 0.5 mm2, is guided through the cable lead-through opening 1d in the side wall of the floor pan 1.
  • the floor pan 1 has a sloping pan floor which forms an inclined connecting floor 1k.
  • the inclined course is arranged so that the cables introduced with their cable ends 4c, d; 5c, d rise upwards so that no rainwater can penetrate to the terminals.
  • the supply and signaling cables 4a, b; 5a, b fastened with cable clips 6. The rainwater that may enter runs towards the signal tower and can drip off.
  • the floor pan 1 has a receiving device 11 for the transformer module 2 below the inclined connection floor 1k, which is fastened in a very protected manner by this arrangement.
  • a holding device 1n for the signal transmitter (not shown here), the holding device 1n being generally cylindrical.
  • a cable winding device 1e in an advantageous manner molded on, which is expediently formed by a slotted tube piece.
  • the excess length of the signaling cable 5e can be wound up, so that only the necessary end has to be led to the individual signaling chambers.
  • a cover seal 3a is provided in the inner edge of the cover.
  • a sealant 11, which is formed by a foam block, is attached in the region of the cable bushing opening 1d.
  • a further sealing means for example a foam plug 8, is arranged above or in the pipe section 1e, which prevents insects from entering the signaling chamber.
  • the fastening device according to the invention is shown in plan view. It can also be seen here that the floor pan 1 of the fastening device on the one hand has triangular reinforcing ribs 1h in the area of the combination holder 1b. Furthermore, additional reinforcing ribs are formed on the side walls of the floor pan 1, which are denoted by 1i.
  • the transformer module 2 is shown in section from two different sides.
  • the transformer module 2 has a housing 2d, which is referred to as a transformer cup. With at least two latching hooks 2i, the transformer module 2 is latched to corresponding latching lugs 10 of the floor pan 1 in the receiving device 11.
  • the supply line 2b is led from the transformer module 2 into the terminal chamber of the fastening device.
  • the transformer 2f is fastened, for example, to the heat conducting plate 2a with a cable tie 2g.
  • the heat-conducting sheet 2a itself is fastened to latching lugs 2e of the transformer cup 2d with an opening provided for this purpose.
  • the rectifier or rectifiers 2c are expediently attached to the heat conducting sheet 2a, for example with screws.
  • the transformer module with a casting compound is 2 hours protected against environmental influences.
  • the previous signal transmitters can be retrofitted to the signal mast at any time.
