Abstract

A description is given of a conductor bundle for electrical installations, especially for complete housing installations and installation networks for electrical energy supply and its control as well as for transmission of news, data and information. Using this, it is intended to make it possible to obtain a conductor bundle for installations which is easy to install and both provides energy supply and can be used for transmission of news, data and information. The same is achieved with the aid of two main strands which are connected to each other by means of a continuously extending and detachable bridge connector. This bridge connector has a notch running over the entire length and on both sides, for the possible splitting, and for the deliberate insertion of nails when nail fastening is being used. The special shaping of the periphery of the main strand jackets provides the advantage that the bridge connector runs approximately parallel to the support face of the connector bundle, which facilitates the cable fastening. <IMAGE>

Description

Die Erfindung betrifft eine elektrische Installationsverbundleitung für Starkstrom und Schwachstrom bzw. Fernmelde- und Datentechnik entsprechend dem Oberbegriff des Anspruchs 1.The invention relates to an electrical installation composite line for high and low current or telecommunications and data technology according to the preamble of claim 1.

Eine Installationsverbundleitung dieser art ist in dem Dokument DE-A-4 118 055 beschrieben.A composite installation line of this type is described in document DE-A-4 118 055.

Für eine komplette elektrische Gebäudeinstallation werden Starkstrom- und Fernmeldeleitung benötigt, wobei die Starkstromleitung zur elektrischen Energieversorgung und ggfs. deren Steuerung, und die Fernmeldeleitungen zur Übertragung von Nachrichten, Daten und Informationen genutzt werden.For a complete electrical building installation, high-voltage and telecommunication lines are required, whereby the high-voltage line is used for the electrical energy supply and possibly its control, and the telecommunication lines for the transmission of messages, data and information.

Gleiches gilt bei Installationsnetzwerken, insbesondere bei frei programmierbaren, zentral und/oder dezentral programmierbaren Installationsnetzwerken. Hierbei müssen die üblichen Verbraucher aus dem Netz versorgt werden, d.h., daß sie entweder über Steckdosen an das Netz anschließbar oder fest an dieses angeschlossen sind. Gleichzeitig ist es aber erforderlich, über installierte Steckdosen und Schalter oder Geräteeinbau- bzw. Vorbauschalter eine frei programmierbare Steuerung des Gerätebetriebs und der Zuordnung der Verbraucher, Steckdosen und Schalter durchzuführen. Dazu müssen alle diese Elemente und die ihnen zugeordneten Steuereinrichtungen mit den entsprechenden Daten und Schwachstrom (Niederspannung) versorgt werden, was zweckmäßigerweise über eine sogenannte Busleitung, d.h., Fernmeldeleitung geschieht.The same applies to installation networks, in particular to freely programmable, centrally and / or decentrally programmable installation networks. In this case, the usual consumers must be supplied from the network, ie that they can either be connected to the network via plug sockets or are permanently connected to it. At the same time, however, it is necessary to carry out freely programmable control of the device operation and the assignment of the consumers, sockets and switches via installed sockets and switches or built-in or front-mounted switches. For this purpose, all these elements and the control devices assigned to them must be supplied with the corresponding data and low current (low voltage), which is expediently carried out via a so-called bus line, ie, telecommunication line.

Der Erfindung liegt die Aufgabe zugrunde, eine Installationsverbundleitung zu schaffen, die einfach installierbar ist und gleichzeitig die Versorgung mit Energie ermöglicht und auch zur Übertragung von Nachrichten, Daten und Informationen genutzt werden kann.The invention has for its object to provide a composite installation line that is easy to install and at the same time enables the supply of energy and can also be used for the transmission of messages, data and information.

Gelöst wird diese Aufgabe gemäß der Erfindung durch die im kennzeichnenden Teil des Anspruchs 1 angegebenen Merkmale.This object is achieved according to the invention by the features specified in the characterizing part of claim 1.

Eine solche Verbundleitung kann entweder auf Wänden, Decken, Böden, im oder Unterputz, auf Rosten, Pritschen, Wannen, in geschlossenen Installationskanälen in Leerrohren oder ggfs. direkt am Boden verlegt werden, da die bewährten Mehradermantelleitungs-Konstruktionen angewandt werden können. Es ist somit möglich, sämtliche übliche Leitungs-Installationsmethoden einer einzelnen Mehraderleitung und einer einzelnen Stegleitung beizubehalten, obwohl hierbei gleichzeitig zwei Systeme, nämlich die Starkstrom- und die Fernmeldeübertragung in einem Installations-Arbeitsgang errichtet werden und somit Installationszeiten eingespart werden können.Such a composite cable can either be installed on walls, ceilings, floors, in or flush-mounted, on grates, platforms, trays, in closed installation ducts in empty pipes or, if necessary, directly on the floor, since the proven multi-core sheathed cable constructions can be used. It is thus possible to maintain all the usual line installation methods for a single multi-core line and a single landline line, even though two systems, namely power transmission and telecommunication transmission, are set up at the same time in one installation step, thus saving installation times.

Mittels der kontinuierlich durchgehenden Stegverbindung der beiden Hauptstränge wird ein stets auftrennbarer Verbund erreicht. Je nachdem, ob ein Starkstrom oder ein Fernmeldeanschluß erforderlich ist, ob beide Anschlüsse erforderlich sind, oder ob eine teilweise getrennte Führung beabsichtigt ist, können die beiden Hauptstränge voneinander gelöst werden. Der Anschluß erfolgt dann entweder dadurch, daß jeder Hauptstrang bzw. dessen Adern oder nur bestimmte Adern durchtrennt und abisoliert werden, oder dadurch, daß der jeweilige Außenmantel entfernt und die jeweiligen Adern ohne Durchtrennen abisoliert werden.By means of the continuous continuous web connection of the two main strands, an always separable bond is achieved. Depending on whether a power supply or a telecommunications connection is required, whether both connections are required or whether a partially separate routing is intended, the two main lines can be separated. The connection is then made either by cutting and stripping each main strand or its wires or only certain wires, or by removing the respective outer sheath and stripping the respective wires without cutting.

Aufgrund der ganzlängigen beiderseitigen Kerbe der Stegverbindung kann die zuvor erwähnte Trennung in einfacher Weise durchgeführt werden. Gleichzeitig dient die beiderseitige Kerbe zur gezielten Nagelführung bei Nagelbefestigung. Bei entsprechender Dimensionierung der Stegverbindung erreicht man eine Abstandshaltung der beiden Stränge, die deren Beschädigung insbesondere bei Nagelbefestigung vermeidet. Insbesondere bei Verwendung von zu dicken Nägeln wird eine Beschädigung der Mäntel der beiden Hauptstränge vermieden, da in einem solchen Falle die Kerbe als Sollbruchstelle wirkt.Due to the full length notch of the web connection on both sides, the aforementioned separation in be carried out in a simple manner. At the same time, the notch on both sides is used for targeted nail guidance during nail attachment. With appropriate dimensioning of the web connection, a spacing of the two strands is achieved, which avoids their damage, particularly when the nail is fastened. Damage to the sheaths of the two main strands is avoided in particular when using too thick nails, since in such a case the notch acts as a predetermined breaking point.

Durch geeignete Formgebung des Umfangs der Mäntel der Hauptstränge wird die Bildung eines Flachkabels vermieden, so daß auch eine Verlegung in Leerrohren erfolgen kann, aber auch erreicht wird, daß die Stegverbindung etwa parallel zur Auflagefläche der Verbundleitung verläuft, so daß die Kabelbefestigung erleichtert wird.Appropriate shaping of the circumference of the sheaths of the main strands prevents the formation of a flat cable, so that it can also be laid in empty conduits, but it is also achieved that the web connection runs approximately parallel to the contact surface of the composite line, so that the cable fastening is facilitated.

Die Erfindung wird nachstehend anhand der beigefügten Zeichnung beschrieben, die einen Querschnitt der elektrischen Installationsverbundleitung der Erfindung zeigt.The invention is described below with reference to the accompanying drawing, which shows a cross section of the electrical installation connection line of the invention.

Die beiden Hauptstränge 11 und 12 haben jeweils einen Mantel 15 mit einem kreisförmigen bzw. etwa ovalen Umfang. Die Mäntel 15 sind durch eine Stegverbindung 13 verbunden, die eine sich über die gesamte Leitungslänge erstreckende beiderseitige Kerbe 14 aufweist. Die Mäntel 15 und der Steg 13 sind einstückig ausgebildet. Innerhalb des Hauptstrangs 11 befindet sich eine dreiadrige Starkstromleitung, und innerhalb des Hauptstrangs 12 eine Fernmeldeleitung. Beide Hauptstränge sind in einem Rohr 16 verlegt.The two main strands 11 and 12 each have a jacket 15 with a circular or approximately oval circumference. The jackets 15 are connected by a web connection 13 which has a notch 14 on both sides which extends over the entire length of the line. The jackets 15 and the web 13 are integrally formed. There is a three-wire power line within the main line 11 and a telecommunication line within the main line 12. Both main strands are laid in a pipe 16.
