Definitions

  • the invention relates to a terminal block assembly with a plurality of juxtaposed terminal blocks, at least one of which is wider than the rest, wherein in the terminal blocks conductor rails for conductor connections are arranged, whose longitudinal extent is oriented transversely to the mounting direction of the terminal blocks and in which receiving holes for contacting multi-pole cross connectors are provided for which recording channels are formed in the terminal block housings.
  • the transverse bridging for the transverse distribution of an electrical potential within the bay in the transition from a wide terminal to a narrow terminal is problematic because the pitch deviates at this point from the other pitch identical, for example, narrow terminal blocks. The problem exists especially when, as in many applications, preferred to work with multi-pole cross connectors, designed for a specific pitch.
  • multi-pole cross connector often for the individual contact elements predetermined breaking points to the transverse distribution rail, so that you can change the breaking distance at this point by breaking away a contact element, however usually does not fit this change to the grid dimension change in the transition region of a wide to a narrow terminal block.
  • the present invention is therefore an object of the invention to provide a terminal block assembly of the generic type, which allows a simple and inexpensive cross-bridging possibility in the transition region from a wide to a narrow terminal block.
  • the solution according to the invention consists essentially in that at least one receiving hole for a transverse connector is provided in the edge rail of an adjacent narrower terminal block in the busbar of a wider terminal block.
  • the location of this receiving hole and thus the offset on the usual center arrangement of the receiving hole in the busbar allows accurate adaptation to the smaller pitch of the narrower terminal blocks. It is thus possible to contact the multi-pole cross connector for contacting the narrower terminal blocks even with the busbar of the wider terminal block. It has been found that in this way such a transverse bridging is still possible in the transition region from a narrow to a twice as wide terminal block.
  • busbar of the wider terminal block transverse to its longitudinal extent to provide two receiving holes opposite each other in the respective edge regions, so that, for example, starting from a wide feed terminal bridging on both the right side and on the left side to each subsequent narrow control line terminal blocks is possible.
  • a wider terminal block is provided with a housing for the baying, in which the position of the cross connector receiving channels or channels is designed for alignment with the cross connector receiving channels in the adjacent narrower terminal blocks.
  • a broader adapter-like terminal block is arranged in the busbar at least one receiving hole for the transverse bridging with the wide commercial power rail and at least one Receiving hole for an Ouerverbinder in which an adjacent narrower terminal clamp facing edge region are provided.
  • a commercially available wide power terminal can be used.
  • the adapter-like terminal block is arranged.
  • a commercial cross connector for this large grid can be taken.
  • the offset to the edge position further receiving hole in the busbar of the adapter-like terminal block then allows the bridge to the narrower terminal blocks using a conventional, designed for the small grid multi-pole cross connector.
  • the broader Adapter-type terminal blocks can be made very simple. This is especially true for the design of their busbars, as they must have no conductor connections.
  • a wider terminal 1 for example, a feed terminal for a conductor cross-section of 16 mm 2 , provided to the right or left, and on both sides, narrower terminal blocks 2 are anreiht For example, control line terminal blocks for a conductor cross-section of 1.5 mm 2 .
  • the wider terminal block 1 is in such a case about twice as wide as a narrower terminal block.
  • Within the terminal block arrangement there is a transverse distribution of an electrical potential by transverse bridging with the aid of multipolar cross connectors 3.
  • In the housings 4 of the narrower terminal blocks 2 are aligned in the baying lying receiving channels 5 for receiving the multi-pole cross connector 3 is provided.
  • the housing 4 of the narrower terminal blocks 2 each have two such receiving channels 5 for cross connector.
  • the wider terminal 1 in the illustrated embodiment also has two receiving channels 6 for cross connector 3. Because with such a difference in size of the row to be dressed usually with a standard wide terminal block of the receiving channel for the cross connector offset from the receiving channels of the narrow terminal blocks would be in this embodiment a special wider terminal 1 is provided, in which the receiving channel 6 in the housing 7 of the wider terminal 1 has such a position that it is in alignment with the receiving channels 5 of the narrower terminal blocks 2.
  • busbars 8 are arranged with their longitudinal extent transverse to the mounting direction of the terminal block assembly, which have at its two ends conductor terminals 9 and in the commercial embodiment based on the width of the busbars 8 in a central arrangement a receiving hole 10 for the contacting insertion of a the male contact elements 11 of the multi-pole cross connector 3 have. Since the distance between the contact elements 11 of the multi-pole cross connector 3 from each other corresponds to the pitch of the narrower terminal blocks 2.
  • the transverse bridging can be done with a cross connector in the front receiving channel 5.6, in the other arrangement direction in the rear receiving channel 5.6.
  • the various possibilities also result from the intuition of the plug-in diagram of FIG. 3.
  • bus bar 12 of the wider terminal block 1 may be expedient to make the bus bar 12 of the wider terminal block 1 thinner in the region of the receiving holes 13 for the transverse connectors 3 than in its remaining course, as illustrated in FIG. 2.
  • the terminal block assembly in its entirety is latched onto a mounting rail 15.
  • a commercially available wide terminal block for example a feeder terminal 1a is provided in the bay, in the busbar 12a then centrally a receiving hole 15 is provided for a cross connector.
  • the receiving channels 6a in the housing 7a of the wide terminal block 1a are not in alignment with the receiving channels 5 of the narrower terminal blocks 2.
  • in the terminal block assembly is another, adapter-like, provided wider terminal block 1b, which is arranged next to the commercial terminal block 1a and then connect the narrower terminal blocks 2.
  • This adapter-like wider terminal block 1b has a special Conductor rail 12b, in which on the one hand in the central position a receiving hole 16 for a cross connector and in which further at least one receiving hole 13b is, which in turn is provided in the adjacent narrower terminal 2 edge region facing, so that the cross connector 3 for the transverse bridging the narrower terminal blocks 2 with its outer contact element with the help of the receiving hole 13b, the bus bar 12b of the adapter-like wider terminal block 1b can contact, as shown in Fig. 4 and as is apparent from the plug-in diagram of FIG. In Fig. 6, the bus bar 12b is illustrated in plan view. For flexible use with a corresponding number of cross-connection options, it expediently has two central receiving holes 16 and two edge-layered pairs of receiving holes 13b.
  • a commercial two-pole cross connector 17 is used with a correspondingly large pitch.
  • the location and size of the receiving channels 6b in the housing 7b for the cross connector in the adapter-like wider terminal blocks 1b is chosen so that both the transverse bridging can be done by means of the large two-pole cross connector to the commercial wide terminal block 1a, as well as the insertion of the cross connector 3 for cross-bridging to the narrower terminal blocks 2.
  • the busbar 12b of the adapter-like wider terminal block 1b has expediently in the region of the receiving holes 16 for the two-pole cross-connector 17 has a greater thickness than in the region of the receiving holes 13b for the multi-pole transverse distributor 3. In the illustrated embodiment, as illustrated in Fig. 5, this achieved by a double-layered material folding in the region of the receiving holes 16.
