Aus der EP 1 296 430 A ist eine Anschlussbox mit Steckdosen bekannt, die auf, neben oder unter Tischen, Schreibtischen und dergleichen Möbelstücken Verwendung finden kann. Diese Anschlussbox weist mehrere aus Kunststoff gefertigte Einzelteile auf, die zu einem Kunststoffgehäuse zusammengesetzt werden. Das Gehäuse beinhaltet einen Kabeleingang zum Führen von Strom und/oder Daten führenden Kabeln ins Innere der Anschlussbox. Es weist weiter von der Gehäuseaußenseite zugängliche Steckdosen auf, deren Anschlüsse mit Adern von ins Innere geführten Kabeln verbindbar sind. Das Kunststoffgehäuse beinhaltet zudem Steckdosen-Befestigungsmittel zum reversiblen Befestigen der Steckdosen. Die Befestigung der Anschlussbox am Möbelstück erfolgt mittels Schrauben, die nur bei geöffneter Anschlussbox zugänglich sind.EP 1 296 430 A discloses a junction box with sockets which, on next to or under tables, desks and similar pieces of furniture Can be used. This junction box has several plastic ones manufactured items, which are assembled into a plastic housing become. The housing includes a cable entry for carrying power and / or data-carrying cables inside the connection box. It points further from the outside of the housing accessible sockets, their connections with wires are connectable from the inside led cables. The plastic housing includes In addition, socket fasteners for reversibly securing the sockets. The attachment of the connection box on the piece of furniture by means of screws, which only are accessible when the connection box is open.

Beiden vorbeschriebenen Lösungen ist gemeinsam, dass besondere, nur für diesen Zweck brauchbare Einzelteile erforderlich sind. Ein weiterer Nachteil besteht darin, dass Montage und Demontage umständlich und zeitaufwändig sind. Müssen die Steckdosen an einen anderen Platz gelegt werden, bleiben unter Umständen unschöne Befestigungslöcher zurück.Both solutions above are common, that special, only for this Purpose usable items are required. Another disadvantage is that assembly and disassembly are cumbersome and time consuming. Must they Sockets are placed in a different place may remain unsightly mounting holes back.

Der vorliegenden Erfindung liegt die Aufgabe zugrunde, eine Vorrichtung der eingangs genannten Art anzugeben, die die lösbare Montage einer Steckdosenleiste an variablen Orten oder wahlweise die Montage einer Mehrzahl von Steckdosenleisten ermöglicht. The present invention has for its object to provide a device of specify the type mentioned above, the releasable mounting a power strip at variable locations or optionally the mounting of a plurality of Power strips allows.

Diese Aufgabe wird gelöst durch eine Vorrichtung mit den Merkmalen des Anspruchs 1.This object is achieved by a device having the features of Claim 1.

Die vorliegende Erfindung geht von dem Prinzip aus, am Möbelstück nur eine Montageleiste vorzusehen, die mit einer leistenförmigen Halteeinrichtung ausgerüstet ist. Auf diese Halteeinrichtung können dann ein oder mehrere Steckdosenleisten an jeder beliebigen Stelle aufgerastet werden. Des weiteren ist es möglich, eine bestimmte Steckdosenleiste wieder abzuziehen und an einer anderen Stelle aufzusetzen, falls sich die Anschlussorte verändern.The present invention is based on the principle, the furniture only one Provide mounting strip, with a strip-shaped holding device equipped. On this holding device can then one or more Power strips are snapped at any point. Furthermore, it is it is possible to pull off a certain power strip again and at one set up in another location if the connection locations change.

Geeignete Befestigungsleisten sind vorteilhafterweise die Unter- oder Oberteile von handelsüblichen Leitungsführungskanälen.Suitable fastening strips are advantageously the lower or upper parts of commercially available cable trunking.

Gemäß einer Weiterbildung der Erfindung besitzt die Montageleiste federnde Seitenwände, auf die ein Deckel lösbar aufsetzbar ist. Dadurch entsteht ein abgeschlossener Raum, d. h. ein Kabelkanal, in dem Energie- und Datenleitungen sicher geführt werden können, wobei die Halteeinrichtung der Leiste für eine räumliche Trennung von Daten- und Energieleitungen sorgt.According to one embodiment of the invention, the mounting rail has resilient Side walls to which a lid is releasably placed. This creates a enclosed space, d. H. a cable channel, in the power and data lines can be performed safely, the holding device of the bar for a spatial separation of data and power lines ensures.

Vorteilhafterweise ist die Rasteinrichtung in der Mittelachse der Leiste positioniert. Dadurch entstehen gleich große Kammern für Daten- und Energieleitungen.Advantageously, the latching device is positioned in the central axis of the strip. This results in equal chambers for data and power lines.

Gemäß einer bevorzugten Ausführung der Erfindung bestehen Leiste und/oder Deckel aus Leichtmetall. Dadurch ist die Rastfunktion dauerhaft gewährleistet. Des weiteren kann eine solche stabile Leiste auch dazu dienen, mehrere Möbelstücke, beispielsweise Büromöbelelemente, mechanisch zu verketten.According to a preferred embodiment of the invention, there are strips and / or Lid made of light metal. As a result, the locking function is permanently guaranteed. Of Further, such a stable bar can also serve to several pieces of furniture, For example, office furniture elements to mechanically link.

Anhand der Zeichnung soll die Erfindung in Form eines Ausführungsbeispiels näher erläutert werden. Es zeigen
