Description

Die Erfindung betrifft eine Verteileranordnung für ein Automatisierungssystem mit einem Verteiler und einem Gehäuse, das mit einer Mehrzahl von elektrischen Anschlüssen zum Anschluss von Sensoren, Aktoren, Initiatoren oder dgl. versehen ist, die jeweils als Stecker- oder als Buchsenteil ausgebildet sind, welche mit einem korrespondierenden Buchsen- oder Steckerteil insbesondere an einem Kabel zusammenkuppelbar sind.The invention relates to a distributor arrangement for an automation system with a distributor and a housing, which is provided with a plurality of electrical connections for connection of sensors, actuators, initiators or the like., Which are each designed as a male or female part, which with a corresponding socket or plug part are zusammenkuppelbar in particular on a cable.

Derartige Anordnungen sind aus dem Stand der Technik bekannt. Üblicherweise werden an die als Verteiler mit Buchsenteilen ausgebildeten Feldbusteilnehmer Kabel, die an ihrem zum Verteiler gewandten Ende ein korrespondierendes Steckerteil aufweisen, angeschlossen. Diese Anordnung hat sich an sich bewährt. Dennoch kann unter extrem rauhen Umgebungsbedingungen ein Bruch der Kupplung aus dem Stecker- und dem Buchsenteil oder des Kabels im Anschlussbereich an das Steckerteil erfolgen.Such arrangements are known from the prior art. Normally, cables which have a corresponding plug part at their end facing the distributor are connected to the field bus participants in the form of distributors with socket parts. This arrangement has proven itself. Nevertheless, under extremely harsh environmental conditions, a break in the coupling from the male and female parts or the cable in the connection area to the male part can occur.

Die Erfindung hat die Aufgabe, dieses Problem mit einfachen Mitteln zu lösen.The invention has the object to solve this problem by simple means.

Die Erfindung löst diese Aufgabe durch den Gegenstand des Anspruchs 1.The invention solves this problem by the subject matter of claim 1.

Danach ist erfindungsgemäß eine über die zusammengekuppelte Einheit aus dem Stecker- und dem korrespondierenden Buchsenteil axial aufschiebbare Schutzhülse vorgesehen, die sich vorzugsweise über die gesamte axiale Länge der Einheit aus dem Stecker- und dem korrespondierenden Buchsenteil erstreckt.Thereafter, according to the invention a provided over the zusammengekuppelte unit from the male and the corresponding female part axially slidable protective sleeve, which preferably extends over the entire axial length of the unit from the male and the corresponding female part.

Derart wird mit einfachem konstruktivem Aufwand eine besonders stabiler Schutz der Kupplung aus Buchsen- und Steckerteil am Verteiler gewährleistet.Such a particularly stable protection of the coupling of socket and plug part is ensured on the manifold with a simple design effort.

Vorteilhafte Ausgestaltungen sind den Unteransprüchen zu entnehmen.Advantageous embodiments can be found in the dependent claims.

Nachfolgend wird die Erfindung unter Bezug auf die Zeichnung anhand eines Ausführungsbeispiels näher erläutert. Es zeigen:

  • Fig. 1 eine perspektivische Ansicht eines Verteilers mit einem daran angeschlossenen Kabel und
  • Fig. 2 einen Schnitt durch den Bereich der Schutzhülse über der Kupplung aus Stecker- und Buchsenteil.
The invention will be explained in more detail with reference to the drawing with reference to an embodiment. Show it:
  • Fig. 1 is a perspective view of a distributor with a cable connected thereto and
  • Fig. 2 shows a section through the region of the protective sleeve over the coupling of male and female part.

Fig. 1 zeigt einen Verteiler 1 für ein Automatisierungssystem mit einem Gehäuse 2, das mit einer Mehrzahl von elektrischen Anschlüssen 3, 4 zum Anschluss von Sensoren, Aktoren, Initiatoren oder dgl. versehen ist. Diese Anschlüsse 3, 4 sind in der Regel im sogenannten M-Standard als M5-Anschlüssen, M6-Anschlüssen, M12-Anschlüsse oder dgl. ausgebildet.1 shows a distributor 1 for an automation system with a housing 2, which is provided with a plurality of electrical connections 3, 4 for connecting sensors, actuators, initiators or the like. These connections 3, 4 are generally designed in the so-called M standard as M5 connections, M6 connections, M12 connections or the like.

Die Anschlüsse 3, 4 weisen jeweils ein Buchsenteil 5 auf, welches mit wenigstens einem zylindrischen Abschnitt 6 um einige mm, vorzugsweise mehr als 3 mm, aus dem Gehäuse vorsteht. In das Buchsenteil 5 ist ein Steckerteil 7 an einem Ende eines Kabels 8 einsteckbar. Im genannten "M-Standard" sichert zusätzlich eine Mutter (hier nicht zu erkennen) die Verbindung zwischen Stecker- und Buchsenteil 7, 5.The terminals 3, 4 each have a socket part 5, which protrudes with at least one cylindrical portion 6 by a few mm, preferably more than 3 mm, out of the housing. In the socket part 5, a plug part 7 at one end of a cable 8 can be inserted. In the aforementioned "M standard" additionally secures a mother (not visible here), the connection between the plug and socket part 7, 5.

Gemäß Fig. 1 ist zum Schutz der Kupplung aus dem Stecker- und dem Buchsenteil 7, 5 axial über diese beiden Elemente eine stabile Schutzhülse 9 aus Metall geschoben, die einen Innendurchmesser aufweist, der dem Durchmesser des zylindrischen Abschnitts 6 derart entspricht, dass ein guter Sitz auf dem zylindrischen Abschnitt 6 gewährleistet ist, wenn die Schutzhülse 9 den zylindrischen Abschnitt 6 übergreift und ― wie hier - an einem weiteren Abschnitt 11 größeren Durchmessers oder direkt auf dem Gehäuse 2 aufliegt.1 is to protect the coupling of the male and the female part 7, 5 axially pushed over these two elements a stable protective sleeve 9 made of metal, which has an inner diameter corresponding to the diameter of the cylindrical portion 6 such that a good Seat is ensured on the cylindrical portion 6, when the protective sleeve 9 engages over the cylindrical portion 6 and - as here - rests on a further section 11 of larger diameter or directly on the housing 2.

Die axiale Erstreckung der Schutzhülse 9 im auf den Verteiler 1 maximal aufgeschobenen Zustand ist derart gewählt, dass sie sich gerade bis zum Ansatz 10 des Kabels am Steckerteil 7 erstreckt, so dass das Kabel 8 nicht vom Rand der Schutzhülse 9 eingeschnitten werden kann.The axial extension of the protective sleeve 9 in the maximum on the distributor 1 deferred state is chosen such that it extends straight to the neck 10 of the cable on the plug part 7, so that the cable 8 can not be cut from the edge of the protective sleeve 9.
