Abstract

Beschrieben und dargestellt ist eine Vorrichtung (14) zur zumindest mittelbaren Verbindung einer Leuchte mit einer Stromschiene (10), umfassend wenigstens eine Schaltwelle (27, 52), die in einem Gehäuse (37) in einem begrenzten Umfangswinkel um eine Schwenkachse (32) herum schwenkbar gelagert ist, und die mit zumindest einer Kontaktzunge (40, 58), insbesondere einer Nulleiter-Kontaktzunge (40) oder einer Phasen-Kontaktzunge (58), zur Kontaktierung von Leiterschienen (13a, 13b, 13c, 13d) in der Stromschiene bewegungsverbunden ist, wobei die Kontaktzunge mit der Leuchte elektrisch über einen Anschlussleiter (39a, 39b, 39c) verbindbar ist.Described and illustrated is a device (14) for at least indirectly connecting a luminaire to a bus bar (10), comprising at least one switching shaft (27, 52) mounted in a housing (37) at a limited circumferential angle about a pivot axis (32) is pivotally mounted, and with at least one contact tongue (40, 58), in particular a neutral contact tongue (40) or a phase contact tongue (58), for contacting conductor rails (13a, 13b, 13c, 13d) in the busbar movement connected is, wherein the contact tongue with the lamp is electrically connected via a connecting conductor (39a, 39b, 39c).

Die Besonderheit besteht darin, dass der Kontaktzunge, elektrisch mit dieser verbunden, ein Steckelement, insbesondere eine Steckzunge (42) zugeordnet ist, die im wesentlichen entlang einer Richtung parallel zur Schwenkachse (32) ausgerichtet ist, und dass ein Ende des Anschlussleiters ein Gegensteckelement, insbesondere eine Flachsteck-Hülse (48), zur Verbindung mit der Steckzunge (42) aufweist.

Figure imgaf001
The special feature is that the contact tongue, electrically connected to this, a plug element, in particular a tongue (42) is associated, which is aligned substantially along a direction parallel to the pivot axis (32), and that one end of the connecting conductor is a mating plug element, In particular, a flat plug sleeve (48) for connection to the tongue (42).
