Description

Stand der TechnikState of the art

Die Erfindung geht von der Gattung aus, wie im unabhängigen Anspruch 1 angegeben.The invention is based on the genus, as in independent claim 1 indicated.

Für die Netzstromversorgung in Häusern ist es bekannt, in Unterputzdosen elektrische Module, beispielsweise Schalter oder Steckdosen einzusetzen. Solch ein Modul kann auch als elektronisches Steuergerät ausgebildet sein (Deutsches Gebrauchsmusterschrift 91 12 055) oder als Fernbedienungsanordnung (Deutsche Patentschrift 32 14 156) für Infrarot-Fernbedienung eines elektrischen Gerätes. Ebenso ist es bekannt, Installationsgeräte für Telekommunikationsanlagen (Deutsche Gebrauchsmusterschrift 93 03 921) oder einen Einbau-Aktor für den europäischen Installationsbus einer Domotikanlage (Deutsche Gebrauchsmusterschrift 29 520 390) in eine Unterputzdose zu legen.For the mains power supply in houses it is known in Flush-mounted electrical modules, such as switches or to use sockets. Such a module can also be called be designed electronic control unit (German Utility Model 91 12 055) or as a remote control device (German Patent 32 14 156) for infrared remote control an electrical device. It is the same known, installation equipment for telecommunications equipment (German Utility Model 93 03 921) or a Built-in actuator for the European installation bus Domotic plant (German utility model 29 520 390) to be placed in a flush-mounted box.

Darüberhinaus sind für Funkalarmanlagen bereits Funkmodule wie Funk-Kontaktmelder, Funk-Glasbruchmelder u.s.w. im Handel. Eine Einbruchmeldeanlage kann Teil einer Domotik-Anlage sein. Eine solche Domotik-Anlage verbindet technische Funktionen mit Anwendungen im Haushalt. Hierzu gehören beispielsweise die Sicherheitstechnik, die Heizungs-, Lüftungs- und Klimasteuerung, die Beleuchtungs- und Jalousiesteuerung sowie das Lastmanagement. Mit der Integration der Hausgeräte und weiterer technischer Geräte im Haus wird die Domotik laufend erweitert. Dazu gehört die Steuerung des Herdes, der Waschmaschine, die Rolladensteuerung, die Steuerung des Garagentores, die Fernabfrage beispielsweise des Gas- oder Wasserzählers u.s.w. Die Domotik ist als geräte- und anwendungsübergreifendes System konzipiert, das alle im Haus oder in der Wohnung vorhandenen Einzelkomponenten und Anwendungen zu einem System integriert. Der Datenaustausch zwischen Sensoren, Aktoren und einer Zentrale erfolgt dabei über den sogenannten europäischen Installationsbus (EIB) der European Installation Bus Association (EIBA), einer Organisation, in der sich die führenden europäischen Elektroinstallationsfirmen zusammengeschlossen haben.In addition, radio modules already have radio modules like radio contact detector, radio glass breakage detector etc. in the Trade. A burglar alarm system can be part of a home automation system be. Such a domotic system connects technical functions with applications in the household. For this include, for example, the safety technology, the Heating, ventilation and air conditioning control, the lighting and blind control as well as the load management. With the Integration of home appliances and other technical devices in the house the Domotik is constantly extended. This includes the control of the stove, the washing machine, the Roller shutter control, the control of the garage door, the Remote inquiry, for example, of the gas or water meter etc. The domotic is as device and cross-application system, all in the House or individual components present in the home and Applications integrated into a system. The data exchange between sensors, actuators and a control panel doing so via the so-called European installation bus (EIB) of the European Installation Bus Association (EIBA), an organization in which the leading European Electrical installation companies have joined forces.

Auch hier besteht das Bestreben, an den Bus anzuschließende Module unter Putz zu verlegen. Darüberhinaus gibt es Überlegungen, Module drahtlos, d.h. über Funk, an den Bus anzuschließen. Befinden sich nun in der Nähe von Funk-Sendern oder -Empfängern Decken und/oder Wände, so wirken sich diese zumeist ungünstig auf das Senden und Empfangen elektromagnetischer Wellen aus. Abhängig von dem Material der Wand werden die elektromagnetischen Wellen durch die Nähe der Wand stark bedämpft oder es kommt zu Reflexionen. Dies gilt insbesondere für Unterputzinstallationen, bei denen sich ein Modul innerhalb einer Wand befindet und bündig mit der Wandoberfläche abschließt. Der bündige Abschluß wird im allgemeinen mit Hilfe eines Tragrahmens aus Blech erzielt, der von außen auf der Wand aufliegt, wobei das restliche Modul in einer Einbaudose innerhalb einer Einbauausnehmung in der Wand versenkt ist.Again, there is a desire to the bus to lay modules to be connected under plaster. Moreover, there are considerations of wireless modules, i. via radio to connect to the bus. Are now in near radio transmitters or receivers ceilings and / or Walls, so they affect mostly unfavorable to the Send and receive electromagnetic waves. Depending on the material of the wall, the electromagnetic waves strong by the proximity of the wall dampens or it comes to reflections. this applies especially for concealed installations in which a module is located inside a wall and flush with the wall Wall surface completes. The flush graduation will be in generally achieved by means of a support frame made of sheet metal, from the outside rests on the wall, with the rest Module in a mounting box within a mounting recess sunk in the wall.

Die frühere Anmeldung EP 1 064 693 = WO 99/48168 beschreibt eine elektrische Unterputzinstallationseinheit mit einer metallischen Tragplatte. Diese kann als Antenne ausgebildet sein. The earlier application EP 1 064 693 = WO 99/48168 describes an electrical flush installation unit with a metallic support plate. This can be designed as an antenna be.

Vorteile der ErfindungAdvantages of the invention

Der Anmeldungsgegenstand mit den Merkmalen des Anspruches 1 hat folgenden Vorteil:The subject of the application with the features of the claim 1 has the following advantage:

Eine dämpfungsarme Übertragung von Funksignalen in der Umgebung eines unter Putz installierten Moduls wird dadurch erreicht, daß der Tragrahmen des Moduls oder Teile des Tragrahmens als Element einer Funkantenne gestaltet sind. Dies gilt sowohl für einen Tragrahmen, der im wesentlichen in seiner üblichen Form belassen wird und vollständig aus Metall besteht, als auch für einen speziell als Antennenelement gestalteten Tragrahmen oder ein Teil davon, der bzw. das teilweise aus nichtleitendem Material besteht.A low-loss transmission of radio signals in the Environment of a module installed under plaster achieved in that the support frame of the module or parts of the support frame designed as an element of a radio antenna are. This applies to both a support frame, which in the essential in its usual form is left and completely made of metal, as well as for one specially designed as an antenna element support frame or part of it, partly non-conductive Material exists.

Das Senden und Empfangen elektromagnetischer Wellen bei der Unterputzinstallation eines Moduls ermöglicht durch die Verwendung des Tragrahmens als Antennenelement eine effektive Ausstrahlung. Durch geeignete Gestaltung kann die Funkantenne ein Richtdiagramm aufweisen, so daß die verlustreiche Abstrahlung von Energie in die Wand hinein reduziert wird. Die Antenne kann robust gestaltet sein, so daß sie den rauhen Bedingungen des Installationshandwerks gerecht wird. Für den Benutzer der Installationstechnik ist die Antenne unsichtbar.Transmission and reception of electromagnetic waves the concealed installation of a module made possible by the use of the support frame as an antenna element a effective charisma. By appropriate design can the radio antenna have a directional diagram, so that the lossy radiation of energy into the wall is reduced. The antenna can be made robust, so that they meet the harsh conditions of installation craft does justice. For the user of the installation technology the antenna is invisible.

Vorteilhafte Weiterbildungen sind in den abhängigen Ansprüchen angegeben, deren Merkmale auch, soweit sinnvoll, miteinander kombiniert werden können. Advantageous developments are in the dependent Claims specified, whose characteristics also, as far as meaningful, can be combined with each other.

Wie die Figuren 2 und 3 zeigen, ist der Tragrahmen 1 über eine elektrische Leitung 4 mit einem Sender oder Empfänger 3 verbunden. Dadurch wirkt der Tragrahmen 1 im Betrieb als Element einer Funkantenne, d.h. Sende- und/oder Empfangsantenne.As shown in Figures 2 and 3, the support frame 1 is over an electrical line 4 with a transmitter or receiver 3 connected. As a result, the support frame 1 acts in operation as Element of a radio antenna, i. Send and / or Receiving antenna.

Für den anderen Anschluß des Senders oder Empfängers 3 ergeben sich verschiedene Möglichkeiten, die mit unterbrochenen Linien dargestellt sind:For the other connection of the transmitter or receiver 3 Different possibilities arise with the broken lines are shown:

Entweder kann der Sender oder Empfänger über eine elektrische Leitung 5 mit einem elektrisch leitenden Seitenbelag 6 des in Figur 1 gezeigten Isolierstoffbehälters 2 verbunden sein; dann wirkt dieser Seitenbelag als weiteres Antennenelement. Oder der Sender oder Empfänger 3 kann über eine elektrische Leitung 7 mit einem elektrisch leitenden Bodenbelag 8 des Isolierstoffbehälters 2 (Figur 1) verbunden sein, dann wirkt der Bodenbelag als weiteres Antennenelement. Es kann aber auch der Boden- mit dem Seitenbelag elektrisch verbunden sein; dann genügt eine der Leitungen 5, 7.Either the sender or receiver can use one electrical line 5 with an electrically conductive Side covering 6 of the shown in Figure 1 Insulating container 2 to be connected; then it works Seitenbelag as another antenna element. Or the transmitter or receiver 3 can via an electrical line 7 with an electrically conductive floor covering 8 of Insulating container 2 (Figure 1) be connected, then The floor covering acts as another antenna element. It can but also the floor and the side covering electrically be connected; then one of the lines 5, 7 is sufficient.

Schließlich kann wahlweise ein weiteres Antennenelement 9 vorgesehen sein, und zwar entweder in der Tiefe der Wand oder auf der anderen Seite der Wand. Dieses Antennenelement 9 kann auch als Reflektor wirken. Je nach dem welche Funktion es übernehmen soll, kann es mit Erdpotential und/oder mit einem oder beiden der Beläge 6, 8 verbunden sein.Finally, optionally a further antenna element 9 be provided, either in the depth of the wall or on the other side of the wall. This Antenna element 9 can also act as a reflector. Depending on Which function it should take, it can with Ground potential and / or with one or both of the pads 6, 8 connected.

Die in Figur 3 dargestellte Abwandlungsmöglichkeit zeigt einen Fall, bei welchem der Sender oder Empfänger 3 über eine elektrische Leitung 10 mit einem Belag 11 auf einer Leiterplatte 12 verbunden ist. Hier wirkt der Belag 11 als zweites Antennenelement. Die Leiterplatte 12 befindet sich mit oder ohne einen Isolierstoffbehälter (2 in Figur 1) in einer Einbauausnehmung innerhalb einer Wand. The variant shown in Figure 3 shows a case in which the transmitter or receiver 3 via an electrical line 10 with a coating 11 on one Printed circuit board 12 is connected. Here the coating 11 acts as second antenna element. The circuit board 12 is located with or without an insulating container (2 in Figure 1) in a mounting recess within a wall.

Schließlich kann der Tragrahmen 1 auch aus mehreren Teilen bestehen, die elektrisch voneinander isoliert sind und jeweils ein Element der Funkantenne bilden; bei zwei Teilen führt dann zu jedem der Teile eine auf unterschiedlichem Hochfrequenzpotential und/oder unterschiedlicher Hochfrequenzphase liegende elektrische Leitung des Senders bzw. Empfängers 3. An den Tragrahmen kann eine Hochfrequenzschaltung unmittelbar angeschlossen oder kapazitiv oder induktiv angeschlossen sein.Finally, the support frame 1 also consists of several parts exist, which are electrically isolated from each other and each form an element of the radio antenna; at two Split then leads to each of the parts different radio frequency potential and / or different high-frequency phase lying electric Cable of the transmitter or receiver 3.
