Definitions

  • the invention relates to a socket, in particular a mounting box for electrical installation systems with the same or similarly constructed additional sockets a unit can be strung together, according to the preamble of claim 1.
  • Sockets of this type are known from EP 0 498 405 A1 or EP 0 715 375 A1. With these types you have the Housing for the sockets to be strung together alternately on the face with sockets or corresponding Equipped connector parts that when put together the housing interlock and the electrical connection of the lined-up sockets, which then cause the mechanical fastener remains secured.
  • Such types allow an easier assembly compared to also known arrangements in which by an installer when installed in cable ducts in a row Sockets wired together and therefore electrically need to be contacted.
  • the types mentioned at the beginning but are between adjacent sockets Provide contact points so that e.g. in a row several sockets when using the last socket all contact points in front of it are also energized are and therefore as a source of error, but also as an additional Line resistance are to be considered.
  • EP 0 109 876 also describes a modular structure Known socket system, which consists of four parts can be pushed together.
  • the carrier provided there for conductors, a cover for the carrier, an earth conductor and a base element are put together.
  • a modular one Put together individual socket housings with their end faces is not provided there.
  • the present invention has for its object sockets of the type mentioned in such a way that a simple assembly and stringing together of several such cans to an installation unit is possible without great effort, whereby the relatively complex arrangement of input sockets and output plugs should be avoided on every housing.
  • connection points can each are designed as open U-clamps, in which the conductor strips can be inserted under contact.
  • the mechanical connection means can be easily as dovetail grooves and corresponding projections train on the end faces, with additional locking cams protruding at right angles from the end faces and corresponding openings can be provided, the when inserting the dovetail groove-like connecting parts another move towards the dovetail grooves prevent.
  • intermediate pieces for Connecting adjacent socket housings may be provided also provided with through openings for the conductor strips and that can also be used as a housing for switches or Have trained for fuses when inserting the conductor strips then contacted and in the installation unit be included.
  • Fig. 1 shows a socket assembly, such as that can be used in underfloor boxes.
  • the two sockets 1 and 2 each consist of one Upper housing part 3 and a lower housing part 4, which at Embodiment are identical.
  • the lower housing parts 4 are, as can also be seen from Fig. 2, with locking hooks 5 provided that the sockets 1 and 2 snap into place enable the inwardly projecting webs of the underfloor box.
  • These locking hooks 5 each work with counter-stops 6 together, which is also attached to the lower parts 4 are.
  • the lower parts 4 and the upper parts 3 of the housing are made in a known manner from plastic and are, like Fig.
  • FIG. 2 shows a hint, with the internals, so also provided with the resilient sockets 7, which during insertion a plug into the plug opening 8 of the sockets 1 and 2 give contact with the plug pins.
  • These sockets 7 stand, as Fig. 3 reveals about electrically conductive Arms 9 in connection with an upwardly open U-clamp 10, which each make contact with a conductor strip 11 or 12, that as a common electrical connection line both sockets 1 and 2 supplied.
  • Figures 2 and 3 show that the two conductor strips 11th and 12 bent accordingly before insertion into the lower parts 4 are then in slot-like openings open at the top 13 and 13a in the end walls 14 and 14a of the lower housing parts 4 and in corresponding, perpendicular to the slot openings 13 4 guideway sections running within the lower housing parts 15 to be used positively.
  • the conductor strips 11 and 12 are in this insertion process but also inserted from above into the U-clamps 10, see above that an electrical contact to the terminals 7 is formed.
  • the conductor strips 11 and 12 can with a certain Friction is kept in the slot openings 13 and 13a, to avoid movement in its longitudinal direction. Better is to stop them in this inserted position by the stop in each case on the guide sections 15 and by corresponding Turn off at corresponding housing protrusions to back up.
  • the conductor strips 11 and 12 used are directed upwards secured by the attached upper housing parts 3, which, like Fig. 1 shows, each with downward, tab-like Walls 16 and 17 are provided, of which the wall parts 17th with a projection 18 from above the slot-like openings 13 - and in an analogous manner also the openings 13a - seal and so the electrical conductor strips 11 and 12th hold securely in place.
  • the intermediate piece is 20th equipped with laterally projecting cams 22, which in corresponding Openings 23 in the end walls 14 and 14a are elastic can snap in if the intermediate piece with the associated end walls 14a and 14 in the previously described Way is connected.
  • This configuration prevents a movement of the intermediate piece and the housing lower parts 4 in the direction of the grooves 19.
  • the grooves are towards the top 19 by protruding edge pieces 24 of the lower housing parts 4 limited, each in turn as a stop for the outer edges serve the upper housing parts 3.
  • FIGS. 2 and 1 also show that the lower housing parts 4 each with four upwards standing columnar corner posts are provided and that the in between, the housing areas still remain open through the wall-like tabs 16 and 17 of the upper housing parts 3 be closed.
  • Figures 4 to 7 show a modified embodiment of the invention, which is based on the same principle, as the embodiment of Figures 1 to 3.
  • a housing part 25 for a triple socket each with the three sockets existing connections 27a, 27b and 27c with the housing part 26 a corresponding single socket to one Installation unit with two intermediate pieces 28 and 29 is composed, of which the intermediate piece 28 a switch arrangement and the intermediate piece 29 a Fuse contains.
  • the intermediate pieces 28 and 29 are there deviating from the intermediate piece 20 of FIGS. 1 to 3, as well as the lower housing parts 40 and 41 of the socket housing 25 and 26 on their mutual connection End faces 40a or 41a and 41b both with a groove 19, as well as with a corresponding swallow-swan Provide projection 30 so that an immediate Line up the housings of parts 25, 26, 28 and 29 becomes possible.
  • the lower housing parts with conductor strips 31 to 35 here the conductor strips 34, 35 and 32 or 33 each for connecting a phase to the corresponding one Sockets serve as the third conductor strip 31 as Grounding is used.
  • the conductor strips 34 and 32 are in contact Switch contacts of the switch part in the housing 28, and that short conductor tape piece 35 provides the connection to that in the housing part 29 arranged fuse 36. Also here making contact, as in the exemplary embodiment in FIGS. 1 to 3 by inserting the conductor strips in U-clamps 10 causes each in the lower housing parts of the socket arrangements 25 and 26 are attached.
  • This one too Embodiment are the conductor strips in slot-like Openings 13 and 13a out and pass through the intermediate pieces 28 and 29, which are analogous to slot-like openings 13 and 13a are provided. Also in this embodiment can form a movement of the stop edges Conductor strips can be avoided in their longitudinal direction, without is more obvious.
  • connection point off e.g. from location 38 in Fig. 1 or from point 39 in Fig. 4 immediately and without additional Contact points up to the last socket connection point is led.
  • assembly of such Installation units made of socket housings or functional spacers is extremely simple because a simple mechanical Joining the housing parts and an extremely simple Contacting possible by inserting the conductor strips is.
