Definitions

  • the invention relates to a multiple socket for power plug according to the preamble of claim 1.
  • Such a mounting bracket usually has a fixing leg provided with a number of openings for screws on that for fastening the multiple socket on a base for example, a table top, is screwed on.
  • the mounting bracket is included either integrally formed with the side end part of the multiple socket, or lies as a separate assembly part that can be connected to the multiple socket in front.
  • the different spatial conditions at the respective location of the multiple socket make it necessary to use the multiple socket in different To fix orientations of their insertion surface with respect to the base.
  • For each of these mounting positions is usually a separate mounting bracket - or in the case of an integral solution, even a separate side end piece - necessary.
  • Multiple sockets must therefore either differ depending on the location be pre-assembled or when selling with a selection of alternatives to be used Assembly parts are delivered. This leads to a disadvantageous one comparatively high material requirements, complex storage and comparatively high production costs.
  • the invention is therefore based on the task of mounting a multiple socket to improve.
  • a mounting bracket is provided, which in the different Mounting positions can be fixed on the side end piece of the multiple socket is.
  • a mounting position is characterized in that the mounting bracket tilted around the longitudinal axis of the housing with respect to any further mounting position is arranged on the side end piece.
  • the invention advantageously makes it possible to use the same Mounting bracket the multiple socket in different installation positions to assemble. Because only this can provide a universal mounting bracket is, the multiple socket can be made material-saving and thus inexpensive become.
  • Another advantage is that a conversion of an already assembled multiple socket in a different installation position at any time without purchasing additional assembly parts, without great effort and is possible without opening the housing.
  • the mounting bracket is according to claim 2 with a connecting leg in the Inserted side end piece.
  • the mounting bracket is expedient in four mounting positions can be fixed to the multiple socket.
  • the mounting bracket is designed such that its contact surface is aligned with a surface of the middle part of the housing in each assembly position. In this way it is achieved that in each installation position a side surface of the Multiple socket lies flat on the base. This in turn does a good hold of the multiple socket on the base.
  • the connecting leg of the mounting bracket is "U" -shaped and engages with the arms of the U "shape on both sides of the longitudinal axis in a corresponding constriction of the side end piece.
  • This arrangement represents a particularly favorable implementation of a plug connection between the side end piece and the mounting bracket.
  • the central region of the side end piece arranged about the longitudinal axis remains free for supplying a power cable of the multiple socket.
  • the multiple socket 1 schematically simplified in FIG. 1 has a along one Longitudinal axis L elongated, cuboid housing 2.
  • This housing 2 comprises a coaxially surrounding the interior of the multiple socket 1 Housing middle part 3. This is along an insertion surface 4 with a number the longitudinal axis L staggered slots 5 for power plug.
  • the Housing middle part 3 designed in the manner of a hollow profile is open at each of its Longitudinal ends 6 by means of a side end piece inserted into the middle part 3 of the housing 7 completed.
  • This side end piece 7 carries one Mounting bracket 8.
  • the mounting bracket 8 projects beyond the housing 2 in the longitudinal direction with a fixing leg 9 parallel to the longitudinal axis L.
  • Fig. 1a shows the mounting bracket 8 in an assembly position with respect to the insertion surface 4, in which the contact surface 10 is coplanar or in alignment with the Insertion surface 4 is aligned.
  • the contact surface 10 and the insertion surface 4 are not tilted towards each other.
  • the tilt angle is ⁇ so 0 °.
  • the multiple socket can 1, for example, can be concealed behind a panel, with a Mains plug through an opening provided in the panel into one of the Aperture facing slot 5 is inserted.
  • the multiple socket can 1 can be attached, for example, under a table top in such a way that the insertion surface 4 is aligned perpendicular to the base surface and thus to Inserting a power plug is particularly easy to achieve.
  • the mounting bracket 8 is around FIG. 1a rotated a tilt angle ⁇ of 180 °.
  • the contact surface 10 is in this Position shifted parallel to its 0 ° position and aligned with that of the Insertion surface 4 opposite - not visible in Fig. 1c - housing bottom.
  • the insertion surface 4 is the base surface, not shown diametrically turned away.
  • Fig. 1d the mounting bracket 8 is compared to Fig. 1a by a tilt angle ⁇ rotated by 270 °. In terms of its effect, this 270 ° position is the 90 ° position equivalent to. However, the one hidden in the illustration according to FIG. 1d is aligned Contact surface 10 with the side surface opposite the side surface 12.
  • the side end piece 7 shown only schematically in simplified form in FIG. 1 is shown in detail in Fig. 2.
  • the side end piece 7 has a rectangular Cross-section that corresponds to the cross-section of the housing middle part 3.
  • a lying in the plane of the insertion surface 4 cover surface 20 of the Side end piece 7 is the housing middle part 3 facing End face 21 extended.
  • This projecting area of the top surface 20 carries on its side edges a parallel to the longitudinal axis L.
  • Guide groove 22 With the guide groove 22, the side end piece 7 is on a corresponding guide rail of the housing middle part (not shown in FIG. 2) 3 positively pushed on.
  • the end face 21 also bears A number of fixing pins 23 distributed over the circumferential area thereof engage positively in corresponding receptacles of the middle part 3 of the housing.
  • the connection between the middle housing part 3 and the side end piece 7 is secured by means of two screws in the bushings provided 24 are used in the edge region of the side end piece 7.
  • Fig. 4 shows a cross section through the side end piece 7 in the area of the constriction 25.
  • the constriction 25 is arranged coaxially with the longitudinal axis L and thus passes through at a distance parallel to the end face 21, the top surface 20, the bottom surface 28 and the side surfaces 29 and 30.
  • the two areas 26 and 27 of the side end piece 7 are over two inner walls parallel to the side surfaces 29, 30 31 connected.
  • the inner walls 31 are centered on the side surfaces 29.30 inside the cross section of the side end piece, with respect to 4 the length of the side surfaces 29, 31 the length of the inner walls exceeds 31.
  • Each inner wall 31 carries close to its outside their longitudinal ends 32 arranged parallel to the longitudinal axis L ribs 33.
  • the ribs 33 stiffen the inner wall 31 on the one hand serve the ribs 33 together with the longitudinal ends 32 as a stop for the inserted mounting bracket 8.
  • Tension the longitudinal ends 32 and the ribs 33 thus the square neck 34 shown in dashed lines in Fig. 4 - i.e. the outline of the tapered cross-sectional area - the constriction 25.
  • the inner walls 31 form between them an open cable duct along the longitudinal axis L. 35 from, via which a power cord, not shown, for power supply the multiple socket 1 can be guided into the housing 2.
  • the mounting bracket 8 has a rough approximation of the shape of a right angle and thus L "-shaped strip.
  • the mounting bracket 8 is preferably punched out of sheet metal.
  • the fixing leg 9 aligned parallel to the longitudinal axis L forms the longer leg of the L "-shaped.
  • the connecting leg 40 which is vertical thereon, is provided at its free end 41 with a rectangular cutout 42 centered over the edge length. In a plan view of the connecting leg 40, it thus has an opening which is open toward its free end 41 U "shape.
