Description

Die vorliegende Erfindung betrifft einen automatischen Brandmelder mit einem einen Anschlussblock aufweisenden Meldersockel, einer Melderhaube und mit einem in den Meldersockel einsetzbaren Meldereinsatz, der eine Leiterplatte mit einer Auswerteelektronik, ein Sensorsystem und einen dem Anschlussblock zugeordneten Stecker aufweist.The present invention relates to an automatic fire detector with one Terminal block with detector base, a detector hood and with one in the Detector insert that can be used, which contains a printed circuit board with evaluation electronics, has a sensor system and a connector assigned to the connection block.

Ein derartiger Brandmelder ist z.B. aus der DE-C-44 00915 bekannt.Such a fire detector is e.g. known from DE-C-44 00915.

Bei einem im DE-U-92 10 858.3 beschriebenen Brandmelder dieser Art enthält der beispielsweise aus einem einfachen Spritzteil bestehende Meldersockel einen mehrpoligen Anschlussblock mit den erforderlichen Steckbuchsen, und der Meldereinsatz weist eine Kontaktstiftleiste mit den entsprechenden Kontaktstiften auf, die dem Anschlussblock beim Einsetzen des Melders (Meldereinsatz plus Melderhaube) zwangsweise zugeordnet werden. Der Meldereinsatz ist drehbar in der umlaufenden Melderhaube angeordnet und in seiner Endstellung arretierbar. Zu diesem Zweck weist der Meldereinsatz eine umlaufende Seitenwand auf, die als Zentrierungsring fungiert. Die Melderhaube ist auf dem Meldersockel mechanisch verriegelbar, wobei beim Einsetzen des Melders eine an der Melderhaube angeformte Verriegelungsnocke in einer schräg verlaufenden Kulissenführung einer Verriegelungskulisse geführt ist. Die letztere ist an der Melderhaube derart angeordnet, dass beim Einsetzen und Eindrehen des Melders ein vertikaler Hub für die Kontaktierung erreicht wird.In a fire detector of this type described in DE-U-92 10 858.3, it contains, for example Detector base consisting of a simple molded part and a multipole Terminal block with the required sockets, and the detector insert has one Pin header with the corresponding pins on the connector block assigned when inserting the detector (detector insert plus detector hood) become. The detector insert is rotatably arranged in the rotating detector hood and lockable in its end position. For this purpose, the detector insert has a rotating one Sidewall that acts as a centering ring. The detector hood is on the Detector base can be locked mechanically, one at the end when the detector is inserted Detector hood integrally formed locking cam in a sloping link guide a locking link is guided. The latter is like this on the detector hood arranged that when the detector is inserted and screwed in, a vertical stroke for the Contacting is achieved.

Abgesehen von einer gewissen Gefahr der Beschädigung des Verriegelungsmechanismus bei unsachgemässer Behandlung, führt sowohl der Verriegelungsmechanismus mit Verriegelungskulisse und Verriegelungsnocke als auch die Kontaktierung zwischen Anschlussblock und Kontaktstiften durch eine vertikale Hubbewegung zu einer Erhöhung der Herstellkosten, was bei einem Grosserienprodukt wie einem Brandmelder zweifellos nachteilig ist. Apart from a certain risk of damaging the locking mechanism in the event of improper handling, both the locking mechanism carries with it Locking link and locking cam as well as the contact between the connection block and contact pins by a vertical stroke movement to an increase the manufacturing costs, which is undoubtedly the case with a large-scale product such as a fire alarm is disadvantageous.

Insbesondere die Kontaktierung durch eine vertikale Hubbewegung erhöht die Herstellkosten. Denn einerseits ist ein nicht unbedeutender konstruktiver Aufwand erforderlich, um die Kontaktstiftleiste zuerst durch eine Drehbewegung des Melders in die richtige Position zu bringen, in der sie zwar mit dem Anschlussblock fluchtet, von diesem aber beabstandet ist, und dann bei der vertikalen Hubbewegung schonend und doch sicher den elektrischen Kontakt herzustellen. Und andererseits benötigt diese Art der Kontaktierung Kontaktstifte, die in vertikaler Richtung von der Leiterplatte nach oben gerichtet sind, was die Montage eines separaten Bauteils auf der Leiterplatte erforderlich macht. Diese wiederum erfordert einen zusätzlichen Arbeitsschritt.In particular, contacting by means of a vertical lifting movement increases the manufacturing costs. Because on the one hand a not insignificant design effort is required, around the contact pin strip first by rotating the detector into the correct one Bring position in which it is aligned with the terminal block, but from this is spaced, and then gentle and yet safe with the vertical lifting movement to make the electrical contact. And on the other hand, this type of contacting is required Contact pins that are directed vertically up from the circuit board are what requires the assembly of a separate component on the circuit board. This in turn requires an additional step.

Durch die Erfindung soll nun der eingangs genannte Melder so verbessert werden, dass eine merkbare Reduktion der Herstellkosten erzielt werden kann, ohne dass die Robustheit oder die Handhabbarkeit des Melders beeinträchtigt werden.The invention is intended to improve the detector mentioned at the outset in such a way that a noticeable reduction in manufacturing costs can be achieved without the robustness or the manageability of the detector is impaired.

Diese Aufgabe wird erfindungsgemäss dadurch gelöst, dass die Leiterplatte als Steckkarte ausgebildet ist und eine Kontaktleiste aufweist, und dass das Einsetzen des Meldereinsatzes in den Meldersockel durch eine Vertikalbewegung und eine anschliessende Horizontalverschiebung des Meldereinsatzes erfolgt, wobei bei der Horizontalverschiebung zwischen dem Anschlussblock und der Kontaktleiste eine elektrisch leitende Verbindung hergestellt wird.This object is achieved according to the invention in that the printed circuit board as a plug-in card is formed and has a contact strip, and that the insertion of the detector insert into the detector base by a vertical movement and a subsequent one Horizontal movement of the detector insert takes place, the horizontal displacement between the Terminal block and the contact strip an electrically conductive connection becomes.

Die Ausbildung der Leiterplatte als Steckkarte hat den Vorteil, dass auf der Leiterplatte kein separater Stecker montiert werden muss, wodurch die Kosten für diesen und für dessen Montage eingespart werden. Der Einsetzvorgang durch eine vertikale Hubbewegung und eine anschliessende Horizontalverschiebung bedeutet, dass der Melder nicht mehr eingedreht, sondern eingeschoben wird, was einerseits die Handhabung des Melders erleichtert und andererseits weniger komplizierte Kulissenführungen erforderlich macht. Und dadurch wird die Robustheit des Melders gegenüber eventuellen Störungen bei seiner Montage erhöht. The design of the circuit board as a plug-in card has the advantage that on the circuit board no separate connector needs to be installed, reducing the cost of this and of its assembly can be saved. The insertion process by means of a vertical lifting movement and a subsequent horizontal shift means that the detector is not more screwed in, but inserted, which on the one hand is the handling of the detector facilitated and, on the other hand, less complicated setting guides required makes. And this increases the robustness of the detector against any faults increased during its assembly.

Eine erste bevorzugte Ausführungsform des erfindungsgemässen Brandmelders ist dadurch gekennzeichnet, dass der Meldersockel und der Meldereinsatz einander zugeordnete Mittel zur Führung des Meldereinsatzes beim vertikalen Einschieben in den Meldersockel aufweisen. Bei einer zweiten bevorzugten Ausführungsform ist der Meldereinsatz durch die genannten Führungsmittel sowohl während der Vertikalbewegung als auch während der Horizontalverschiebung geführt.This is a first preferred embodiment of the fire detector according to the invention characterized in that the detector base and the detector insert are assigned to each other Means for guiding the detector insert when it is inserted vertically into the detector base exhibit. In a second preferred embodiment, the detector insert through the said guide means both during the vertical movement and also performed during the horizontal shift.

Eine dritte bevorzugte Ausführungsform des erfindungsgemässen Brandmelders ist dadurch gekennzeichnet, dass der Meldereinsatz an seiner die Leiterplatte tragenden Seite eine definierte Kontur aufweist, und dass der Meldersockel dieser Kontur angepasste Haltemittel enthält, in die der Meldereinsatz bei der Vertikalbewegung einschiebbar ist Eine vierte bevorzugte Ausführungsform ist dadurch gekennzeichnet, dass der Meldereinsatz an der genannten Kontur mit nasenartigen Vorsprüngen versehen ist, und dass die Haltemittel Führungskulissen für diese Vorsprünge aufweisen.This is a third preferred embodiment of the fire detector according to the invention characterized in that the detector insert on its side carrying the circuit board has a defined contour, and that the detector base is adapted to this contour Contains holding means into which the detector insert can be inserted during vertical movement A fourth preferred embodiment is characterized in that the detector insert is provided on the said contour with nose-like projections, and that the holding means have guide links for these projections.

Eine fünfte bevorzugte Ausführungsform des erfindungsgemässen Brandmelders ist dadurch gekennzeichnet, dass an der genannten Kontur des Meldereinatzes, vorzugsweise im Bereich des dem Anschlussblock zugeordeneten Steckers, eine für den jeweiligen Meldertypus spezifische Codierung vorgesehen ist, welche sicherstellt, dass in den jeweiligen Meldersockel nur ein dafür vorgesehener Meldereinsatz eingefügt werden kann.This is a fifth preferred embodiment of the fire detector according to the invention characterized in that on the contour of the detector insert, preferably in the area of the connector assigned to the connection block, one for each Detector-specific coding is provided, which ensures that in the only a designated detector insert can be inserted into the respective detector base can.

Eine weitere bevorzugte Ausführungsform des erfindungsgemässen Brandmelders ist dadurch gekennzeichnet, dass das Aufsetzen der Melderhaube nach Herstellung der elektrischen Verbindung zwischen dem Anschlussblock und der Kontaktleiste und somit nach dem Einsetzen des Meldereinsatzes erfolgt. Die Melderhaube ist vorzugsweise als Mittel zur Arretierung des Meldereinsatzes im Meldersockel ausgebildet und umgreift mit ihrem Mantel den Meldereinsatz so, dass dieser gegen eine Horizontalverschiebung gesichert ist. Another preferred embodiment of the fire detector according to the invention is characterized in that the installation of the detector hood after manufacture of the electrical connection between the terminal block and the contact strip and thus after inserting the detector insert. The detector hood is preferably as Means for locking the detector insert in the detector base are formed and embraced with its jacket the detector insert in such a way that it prevents horizontal displacement is secured.

Bei der letztgenannten Ausführungsform wird der Meldereinsatz ohne Melderhaube bis zu einem Anschlag in den Meldersockel eingeschoben und anschliessend quer zum Meldersockel bewegt. Da bei dieser Bewegung die Leiterplatte in den Anschlussblock gesteckt wird, ist die Bewegungsrichtung für die Bedienungsperson klar ersichtlich. Ausserdem ist der gesamte Vorgang wegen der noch nicht aufgesetzten Melderhaube gut überblickbar und kann ständig kontrolliert werden. Die Melderhaube wird erst zum Abschluss aufgesetzt.In the latter embodiment, the detector insert is without a detector hood inserted into the detector base at a stop and then across the detector base emotional. Because during this movement the circuit board is inserted into the connection block the direction of movement is clearly visible to the operator. Furthermore the entire process is good because of the not yet attached detector hood clear and can be checked constantly. The detector hood is only at the end put on.

Die Leiterkarte ist parallel zur Ebene des Basiskörpers 12 angeordnet. Sie ist als Steckkarte ausgebildet und enthält in die gedruckte Schaltung integrierte Kontaktlamellen, die die Funktion der Kontaktleiste 11 übernehmen. Das Sensorsystem, das in einer opto-elektronischen Messkammer 13 angeordnet ist, enthält ein erstes Gehäuse 14 mit einer Lichtquelle, ein zweites Gehäuse 15 mit einem Lichtempfänger, eine Blende 16 und ein sogenanntes Labyrinth 17. Blende 16 und Labyrinth 17 verhindern, dass Lichtstrahlen auf direktem Weg von der Lichtquelle zum Lichtempfänger gelangen können. Die Messkammer 13 ist unten durch einen nicht eingezeichneten Deckel abgedeckt. Der Meldereinsatz 5 ist an seinem Basiskörper 12, vorzugsweise im Bereich der Kontaktleiste 11, mit einer für den jeweiligen Meldertypus spezifischen Codierung vesehen. Diese ist beispielsweise durch mechanische Elemente, wie Rippen oder Rillen, gebildet und stellt sicher, dass in den jeweiligen Meldersockel nur ein dafür vorgesehener Meldereinsatz 5 eingefügt werden kann. The detector insert 5 shown essentially comprises a rectangular base body 12, on the side facing away from the detector base 1, a sensor system and on its a circuit board with the evaluation electronics on the side facing the detector base is provided.

The dash-dotted lines between the guide lugs 18 and the guide link 8 indicate the mutual position of these elements when inserting the Detector insert 5 in the detector base 1. The reference number 19 is only one Marking on the base body 12 to facilitate understanding designated.

Die Führungskulissen 8 sind in wesentlichen L-förmig ausgebildet und weisen einen vertikalen und einen horizontalen Schenkel auf. Beim Hineinstecken des Meldereinsatzes 5 in den Meldersockel 1 in Richtung des Pfeiles A werden die Führungsnasen 18 in den vertikalen Schenkel der Führungskulissen 8 bis zum Anschlag eingeschoben und anschliessend im horizontalen Schenkel der Führungskulissen 8 verschoben. Das zielsichere Einschieben in den vertikalen Schenkel wird durch den Bügel 9 unterstützt, indem der Meldereinsatz 5 mit einer Kante des Basiskörpers 12 an den an die Platte 2 angearbeiteten Schenkel des Bügels 9 angelegt wird, wodurch eine positive Führung der Führungsnasen 18 in die Kulissen 8 erfolgt.The guide slots 8 are substantially L-shaped and have one vertical and a horizontal leg. When inserting the detector insert 5 in the detector base 1 in the direction of arrow A, the guide lugs 18 in the vertical leg of the guide link 8 pushed in as far as it will go and then moved in the horizontal leg of the guide link 8. The unerring Inserting into the vertical leg is supported by the bracket 9 by the Detector insert 5 with an edge of the base body 12 on the worked on the plate 2 Leg of the bracket 9 is created, thereby positive guidance of the guide lugs 18 takes place in the scenes 8.

In Figur 2 ist diejenige Position dargestellt, die der Meldereinsatz 5 im Meldersockel 1 nach Beendigung der Hubbewegung in Richtung des Pfeiles A (Fig. 1) einnimmt. Man beachte die Lage der Markierung 19 am zugeordneten Führungsblock 7: Die Markierung 19 liegt genau vor einem auf dem Führungsblock 7 angebrachten Pfeil. Man beachte ausserdem, dass der Meldereinsatz 5 am Bügel 9 anliegt. In der dargestellten Position ist zwar der Meldereinsatz 5 in vertikaler Richtung (Pfeil A) voll in den Meldersockel 1 eingeschoben, es besteht aber noch kein elektrischer Kontakt zwischen der Steckerleiste 10 des Anschlussblocks 6 und der Kontaktleiste 11, weil die Kontaktleiste 11 noch nicht in die Steckerleiste 10 eingesteckt ist.FIG. 2 shows the position that the detector insert 5 in the detector base 1 after the lifting movement in the direction of arrow A (Fig. 1) takes. Man note the position of the mark 19 on the associated guide block 7: the mark 19 lies exactly in front of an arrow attached to the guide block 7. Note also that the detector insert 5 rests on the bracket 9. In the position shown is the detector insert 5 in the vertical direction (arrow A) fully into the detector base 1 inserted, but there is still no electrical contact between the power strip 10 of the terminal block 6 and the contact strip 11, because the contact strip 11 has not yet is plugged into the connector strip 10.

Nun erfolgt im Anschluss an die Vertikalbewegung in Richtung des Pfeiles A eine Querbewegung des Meldereinsatzes 5 in Richtung des Pfeiles B, wodurch die Kontakleiste 11 der Leiterplatte in die Steckerleiste 10 des Anschlussblocks 6 eingeschoben wird, und der Meldereinsatz 5 in die in Fig. 3 dargestellte Position gelangt. In dieser Position ist der Meldereinsatz 5 durch die im horizontalen Schenkel der Führungskulissen 8 gehaltenen Führungsnasen 18 gegen Herausfallen aus dem Meldersockel 1 gesichert. Man beachte in der Figur den Abstand zwischen der Markierung 19 und dem Pfeil auf dem Führungsblock 7 und zwischen dem Bügel 9 und der benachbarten Seitenwand des Meldereinsatzes 5.Now there is a transverse movement following the vertical movement in the direction of arrow A. the detector insert 5 in the direction of arrow B, whereby the contact strip 11 of the circuit board is inserted into the connector 10 of the terminal block 6, and the detector insert 5 reaches the position shown in FIG. 3. Is in this position the detector insert 5 by the 8 held in the horizontal leg of the guide link Guide lugs 18 secured against falling out of the detector base 1. Note in the figure the distance between the mark 19 and the arrow on the guide block 7 and between the bracket 9 and the adjacent side wall of the detector insert 5.

Da der Meldereinsatz 5 ohne Melderhaube in den Meldersockel 1 eingesetzt wird, kann das Einsetzen von Auge kontrolliert werden. Da sowohl der Anschlussblock 6 des Meldersockels 1 als auch die seitlich aus dem Meldereinsatz 5 ragende Kontaktleiste mit den Kontaktlamellen klar erkennbar sind, wird der Bedienungsperson die richtige Lage des Meldereinsatzes 5 für das Einsetzen in den Meldersockel 1 eindeutig angezeigt. Nach dem Einsetzen des Meldereinsatzes 5 wird noch die in Fig. 3 gestrichelt eingezeichnete und mit dem Bezugszeichen 20 bezeichnete Melderhaube aufgesetzt und fixiert. Letzteres erfolgt vorzugsweise durch Einrasten oder Einschnappen der Haube 20 in entsprechende Fixierorgane des Meldersockels 1.Since the detector insert 5 can be inserted into the detector base 1 without a detector hood, the insertion of the eye can be checked. Since both the connection block 6 of the detector base 1 and the contact strip protruding from the side of the detector insert 5 with the Contact blades are clearly recognizable, the operator will find the correct position of the Detector insert 5 for insertion in detector base 1 clearly displayed. To the insertion of the detector insert 5 is shown in dashed lines in Fig. 3 and attached and fixed with the reference numeral 20 detector hood. The latter is preferably done by snapping or snapping the hood 20 into the corresponding one Fixing elements of the detector base 1.

Zu diesem Zweck weist der Meldersockel 1 im Bereich des Anschlussblocks 6, und zwar vorzugsweise im Niveau der Befestigungsschienen 3 (Fig. 1) von der Platte 2 radial abstehende Vorsprünge (nicht dargestellt) auf, die zum Einrasten in entsprechende Ausnehmungen der Melderhaube 20 vorgesehen sind. Ausserdem ist der Bügel 9 elastisch ausgebildet und weist an seinem Aussenschenkel ebenfalls zum Einrasten in entsprechende Ausnehmungen der Melderhaube 20 vorgesehene Vorsprünge 21 auf. Das Aufsetzen der Melderhaube 20 erfolgt nun dadurch, dass die Melderhaube zuerst in die von der Platte 2 radial abstehenden Vorsprünge eingehängt und anschliessend in einer Schwenkbewegung in die Vorsprünge 21 eingerastet wird. Zum Abnehmen der Melderhaube erfolgt durch Druck auf die Vorsprünge 21 eine Freigabe der Melderhaube 20.For this purpose, the detector base 1 in the area of the connection block 6, and although preferably at the level of the mounting rails 3 (Fig. 1) from the plate 2 radially protruding projections (not shown), which snap into corresponding recesses the detector hood 20 are provided. In addition, the bracket 9 is elastic trained and also has on its outer leg to snap into corresponding Recesses 21 of the detector hood 20 are provided.
