Description

Die Erfindung betrifft elektrische Steckdosen gemäß dem Oberbegriff des Anspruchs 1.The invention relates to electrical sockets according to the preamble of claim 1.

Steckdosen werden auf der ganzen Erde jährlich in vielen Millionen Stück hergestellt und montiert Entsprechend der nationalen Vorschriften ist das Steckerbild jeweils unterschiedlich. In allen Fallen sind jedoch wenigstens zwei Steckkontakte vorgesehen, von denen jeweils der eine mit dem Phasenleiter und der andere mit dem Nullleiter des örtlichen Stromversorgungsnetzes verbunden wird. Üblicherweise ist auch noch ein Schutzkontakt vorgesehen. Ein Isoliergehäuse und Anschlussklemmen für Phasenleiter, Nullleiter und gegebenenfalls Schutzleiter vervollständigen die Steckdose.Sockets are produced in millions of pieces all over the world every year and assembled According to the national regulations, the connector pattern is in each case differently. In all cases, however, there are at least two plug contacts provided, each of which with the phase conductor and the other with the Neutral conductor of the local power supply network is connected. Usually is a protective contact is also provided. An insulating housing and terminals for phase conductors, neutral conductors and possibly protective conductors complete the Socket.

Bei dieser klassischen Verdrahtungsmethode stehen die Steckkontakte der Steckdose ständig unter Spannung. Falls der Wunsch besteht, die Steckkontakte zeitweise stromlos zu schalten, wird in die zu der Steckdose führenden Phasenleitung ein externer Ein-Aus-Schalter eingebaut. Wenn nun der Benutzer der Steckdose feststellt, dass ein eingestecktes Gerät nicht funktioniert, weil der externe Ein-Aus-Schalter ausgeschaltet ist, so muss er sich zunächst zu diesem externen Schalter begeben und diesen einschalten. Außerdem benötigt der externe Ein-Aus-Schalter zusätzlich Platz; seine Montage ist mit zusätzlichen Kosten verbunden. Dies ist unbefriedigend.With this classic wiring method, the plug contacts of the socket are located constantly under tension. If desired, the plug contacts temporarily Switching off the power is done in the phase line leading to the socket External on-off switch installed. Now if the user of the socket determines that an inserted device does not work because of the external on-off switch is switched off, he must first go to this external switch and switch it on. The external on-off switch also requires additional space; its assembly involves additional costs. This is unsatisfactory.

Der vorliegenden Erfindung liegt daher die Aufgabe zugrunde, eine Steckdose anzugeben, die mit einfachen Mitteln wahlweise auf Aus, auf Dauerstrom oder auf einen externen Ein-Aus-Schalter geschaltet werden kann.The present invention is therefore based on the object of a socket specify that with simple means either on off, on continuous current or on an external on-off switch can be switched.

The advantage of the socket according to the invention is that it can be used by the user with the help of integrated switch either on off, on continuous current or on an external one Switch can be switched, If the socket is switched off externally, the Users switch them back to continuous current without turning to the external switch to have to go.

Als Umschalter kommen sowohl Schiebeschalter als auch Drehschalter in Betracht. Diese lassen sich so weit miniaturisieren, dass sie ohne weiteres in das Steckergehäuse integriert werden können.Both slide switches and rotary switches come into consideration as changeover switches. These can be miniaturized to such an extent that they can be easily integrated into the Plug housing can be integrated.

Gemäß einer besonderen Ausgestaltung der Erfindung sitzt der Umschalter direkt neben den Steckkontakten, gegebenenfalls auch zwischen den Steckkontakten. Auf diese Weise ist sichergestellt, dass ein in die Steckdose eingesteckter Stecker den Umschalter abdeckt. Der Umschalter kann also unter Last nicht verstellt werden. Dadurch ist es möglich, die elektrischen Kontakte des Umschalters sehr einfach und klein auszubilden. Außerdem steigt die Lebensdauer des Umschalters dadurch erheblich an.According to a special embodiment of the invention, the changeover switch is seated directly in addition to the plug contacts, if necessary also between the plug contacts. On in this way it is ensured that a plug inserted into the socket Switch covers. The switch cannot be adjusted under load. This makes it possible to switch the electrical contacts of the switch very easily and to train small. It also increases the lifespan of the switch considerably.

Gemäß einer Weiterbildung der Erfindung kann mit dem Umschalter eine Kulisse gekoppelt sein, die bei eingestecktem Stecker den Umschalter blockiert. Auch auf diese Weise lässt sich das die Schaltkontakte stark belastende Umschalten unter Last mit Sicherheit verhindern.According to a development of the invention, the switch can be used to set a backdrop be coupled, which blocks the switch when the plug is inserted. On too In this way, the switching contacts can be loaded under load prevent with certainty.

Gemäß einer Weiterbildung der Erfindung ist mit dem Umschalter eine Stellungsanzeige gekoppelt, die auch bei eingestecktem Stecker sichtbar ist. Dank dieser Stellungsanzeige kann der Benutzer jederzeit mit einem einzigen Blick feststellen, ob die Steckdose auf Aus, auf Dauerstrom oder auf den externen Ein-Aus-Schalter geschaltet ist.According to a development of the invention, the switch is a Position indicator coupled, which is also visible when the plug is inserted. thanks This position indicator can be viewed by the user at any time with a single glance determine whether the socket is off, on continuous current or on the external on-off switch is switched.

Gemäß einer Ausgestaltung hierzu umfasst die Stellungsanzeige wenigstens einen durch ein Gehäusefenster sichtbaren mechanischen Schieber. Auf diesem Schieber kann die jeweilige Schaltstellung durch Buchstaben, Zahlen oder Farben angezeigt werden.According to one embodiment, the position indicator comprises at least one mechanical slide visible through a housing window. On this slider the respective switching position can be indicated by letters, numbers or colors become.

Alternativ hierzu kann die Stellungsanzeige durch wenigstens eine Signallampe, beispielsweise eine Glimmlampe, erfolgen.Alternatively, the position indicator can be activated by at least one signal lamp, for example, a glow lamp.
