Ce dispositif de commutation assure, lors de l'enfichage d'un connecteur mâle de type RJ ou autre, la déconnexion de l'entrée et de la sortie et la commutation de ce connecteur sur l'entrée.This switching device ensures, when inserting a male connector type RJ or other, the disconnection of the input and output and the switching of this connector on the input.

Un tel dispositif est connu du document de brevet EP 0 630 079 qui décrit un tel agencement de commutation à l'aide de lames de contacts de forme complexe et spécifique. Les faibles dimensions des contacts dans une connexion RJ rendent ce type de dispositif très complexe et coûteux à fabriquer.Such a device is known from the patent document EP 0 630 079 which describes such a switching arrangement using contact blades of complex and specific shape. The small dimensions of the contacts in an RJ connection make this type of device very complex and expensive to manufacture.

Le document EP-0 499 410 A divulgue un dispositif similaire d'interruption assurant la connexion d'un connecteur, à partir d'une connexion d'opérateur dite entrée vers une connexion de sortie, et réalisant, lors de la mise en place d'une fiche dans ledit connecteur, la déconnexion de l'entrée et de la sortie, ledit dispositif comportant un boîtier présentant une connexion de ladite entrée et une connexion de ladite sortie portées par une plaque support, ledit boîtier contenant également ledit connecteur relié à ladite entrée.The document EP-0 499 410 A discloses a similar interruption device providing the connection of a connector, from a so-called input operator connection to an output connection, and performing, when placing a plug in said connector, the disconnecting the input and output, said device comprising a housing having a connection of said input and a connection of said output carried by a support plate, said housing also containing said connector connected to said input.

Le but de l'invention est de fournir un dispositif de commutation qui soit constitué de composants standards et donc fiables et relativement peu difficiles à mettre en oeuvre.The object of the invention is to provide a switching device which consists of standard components and therefore reliable and relatively difficult to implement.

Pour ce faire, l'invention propose un dispositif de commutation assurant la connexion d'un connecteur sur une ligne de transmission de données téléphoniques à partir d'une connexion d'opérateur dite entrée vers une connexion de réseau abonné dite sortie, et réalisant, lors de la mise en place d'une fiche dans ledit connecteur, la déconnexion de l'entrée et de la sortie et la connexion de ce connecteur sur ladite entrée, dispositif comportant un boîtier présentant une connexion de ladite entrée et une connexion de ladite sortie portées par une plaque support et pouvant être reliées électriquement par un circuit imprimé, ledit boîtier contenant également ledit connecteur pouvant être relié à ladite entrée au moyen d'un commutateur actionnable par un bouton poussoir, ledit bouton poussoir étant lui-même actionné lors de l'enfichage d'une fiche dans ledit connecteur.To do this, the invention proposes a switching device ensuring the connection of a connector on a telephone data transmission line from an operator connection said input to a subscriber network connection called output, and realizing, when placing a plug in said connector, the disconnection of the input and the output and the connection of this connector to said input, device comprising a housing having a connection of said input and a connection of said output carried by a support plate and electrically connectable by a printed circuit, said housing also containing said connector being connectable to said input by means of a switch actuable by a push button, said push button being itself actuated when plugging a plug into said connector.

Selon un mode de réalisation préféré, ledit boîtier comporte une ouverture d'introduction de ladite fiche, fermée par un clapet coulissant, ledit clapet comportant une partie de butée actionnant ledit bouton poussoir lorsqu'il est coulissé pour libérer le passage au travers de ladite ouverture.According to a preferred embodiment, said housing comprises an insertion opening of said plug, closed by a sliding valve, said valve having an abutment portion actuating said pusher when it is slid to release the passage through said opening .
