Description

Die Erfindung betrifft ein mehrphasiges, gekapseltes Strom-Einspeisemodul mit einem Gehäuse, das in seinem Inneren Anschlussklemmen aufweist, die mit ersten Steckanschlüssen elektrisch verbunden sind, die zur elektrischen Kontaktierung mit einem mehrphasigen Energieverteilungssystem dienen.The invention relates to a multi-phase, encapsulated power supply module with a housing having in its interior terminals which are electrically connected to first plug-in terminals, which serve for making electrical contact with a multi-phase power distribution system.

Ein derartiges Stromeinspeisemodul ist aus der EP 1 351 336 bekannt. Das hier offenbarte Steckmodul weist Rahmenklemmen auf sowie einen mit jeder Rahmenklemme elektrisch verbundenen Lyrakontakt. Die Lyrakontakte werden zum elektrischen Anschluss auf eine Stromschiene eines Mehrphasensystems aufgesteckt. Zum Anschluss der elektrischen Leiter an die Rahmenklemmen muss von dem Stromeinspeisemodul ein Deckel abgenommen werden, der im montierten Zustand die Berührsicherheit gewährleistet. Die elektrische Steckverbindung der Lyrakontakte mit den Stromschienen erfordert es, dass die Montage gemeinsam mit einem als Halterung dienenden Isolierstoffträger des Stromeinspeisemoduls erfolgt.Such Stromeinspeisemodul is from the EP 1 351 336 known. The plug-in module disclosed here has box terminals and a lyre contact electrically connected to each box terminal. The Lyrakontakte be plugged for electrical connection to a power rail of a multi-phase system. To connect the electrical conductors to the frame terminals, a cover must be removed from the power supply module, which ensures contact safety when mounted. The electrical connector of the Lyrakontakte with the busbars requires that the assembly is done together with serving as a holder Isolierstoffträger the Stromeinspeisemoduls.

Weitere Einspeisesysteme sind durch die DE 101 56 214 A1 und die DE 44 02 001 A1 , die als nächstliegender Stand der Technik anerkannt wird, bekannt.Other feed systems are through the DE 101 56 214 A1 and the DE 44 02 001 A1 known as the closest prior art.

Der Erfindung liegt die Aufgabe zugrunde, ein mehrphasiges, gekapseltes Strom-Einspeisemodul der oben genannten Art zu schaffen, das eine besonders einfache Montage und Verdrahtung ermöglicht. Diese Erfindung ist durch die Merkmale des Anspruchs 1 gegeben.The invention has for its object to provide a multi-phase, encapsulated power supply module of the type mentioned above, which allows a particularly simple installation and wiring. This invention is given by the features of claim 1.

In einem mehrphasigen, gekapselten Einspeisesystem, in dem die Anschlussklemmen als Käfig-Zugfederklemmen ausgeführtsind, und in dem zur elektrischen Kontaktierung ein an die ersten Steckanschlüsse angepasster Brückenstecker vorgesehen ist, durch den die ersten Steckanschlüsse mit dem mehrphasigen Energieverteilungssystem elektrisch verbindbar sind, und in dem den Käfig-Zugfederklemmen jeweils eine Leiter-Einführöffnung im Gehäuse zugeordnet ist, und in dem das Gehäuse zur Befestigung des Strom-Einspeisemoduls mit mindestens einem Befestigungsmittel versehen ist, kann die der Erfindung zugrunde liegende Aufgabe dadurch gelöst werden, dass die Käfig-Zugfederklemmen mit weiteren dritten und/oder vierten Steckanschlüssen elektrisch verbunden sind, die im Inneren des Gehäuses liegen und über eine dritte und/oder vierte Kontaktierungsöffnung im Gehäuse zugänglich sind. Bei entsprechender Anordnung dieser dritten und vierten Steckanschlüsse wird nämlich ein Strom-Einspeisemodul geschaffen, mit dem durch entsprechende Ausrichtung bei der Montage, d.h. Drehung um 180°, die Zuführung von Einspeiseleitungen sowohl von oben als auch von unten möglich ist.In a multi-phase, encapsulated feed system, in which the terminals are designed as cage-spring clips, and in which for electrical contacting a bridge connector adapted to the first plug-in connections is provided, by which the first plug-in terminals are electrically connectable to the polyphase power distribution system, and in which Cage tension spring terminals each have a conductor insertion opening Assigned in the housing, and in which the housing is provided for fastening the power supply module with at least one fastening means, the object underlying the invention can be achieved in that the cage-spring clips are electrically connected to further third and / or fourth plug connections which lie in the interior of the housing and are accessible via a third and / or fourth contacting opening in the housing. With a corresponding arrangement of these third and fourth plug-in connections, a power supply module is created, with which the supply of supply lines is possible both from above and from below by appropriate alignment during assembly, ie rotation through 180 °.

Die Erfindung ermöglicht, dass folgende drei Funktionen unabhängig voneinander ausgeführt werden können:

  • die mechanische Befestigung des Strom-Einspeisemoduls,
  • der elektrische Anschluss der Einspeiseleitung und
  • die elektrische Verbindung des Strom-Einspeisemoduls mit dem Energieverteilungssystem.
The invention enables the following three functions to be carried out independently of each other:
  • the mechanical fastening of the power supply module,
  • the electrical connection of the feed line and
  • the electrical connection of the power supply module with the power distribution system.

Vorteilhafte Weiterbildungen der Erfindung sind den Unteransprüchen zu entnehmen.Advantageous developments of the invention can be found in the dependent claims.

Liegen die Leiter-Einführöffnungen in der Bewegungsanschlussrichtung der Zugfederklemmen in Reihe hintereinander, so wird hiermit eine schmale Bauform eines Strom-Einspeisemoduls erreicht, die in der Anwendung nur geringen Platz beansprucht.If the conductor insertion openings in the direction of movement of the tension spring terminals in series one behind the other, so hereby a narrow design of a power supply module is achieved, which takes up little space in the application.

Eine weitere vorteilhafte Ausführung besteht, wenn das Strom-Einspeisemodul eine Befestigungsseite aufweist und dieser die Leiter-Einführöffnungen gegenüberliegen, was dem Monteur den Anschluss von Einspeiseleitungen erleichtert. Sind darüber hinaus die Leiter-Einführöffnungen gegenüber der Befestigungsseite unterschiedlich beabstandet, so wird hierdurch die Zuführung von Einspeiseleitungen zumindest von einer Seite her wesentlich vereinfacht.A further advantageous embodiment is when the power supply module has a mounting side and this the conductor insertion openings are opposite, which facilitates the fitter the connection of feeders. If, in addition, the conductor insertion openings are differently spaced relative to the attachment side, the supply of supply lines is thereby considerably simplified, at least from one side.

Eine vorteilhafte Weiterbildung besteht, wenn die Leiter-Einführöffnungen in einer Gehäusewand des Strom-Einspeisemoduls liegen, die gegenüber der Befestigungsseite abgeschrägt ist.An advantageous development is when the conductor insertion openings are located in a housing wall of the power supply module, which is beveled relative to the attachment side.

Liegen die ersten Steckanschlüsse im Inneren des Gehäuses und sind über eine erste Kontaktierungsöffnung im Gehäuse zugänglich, ermöglicht dies auf einfache Weise die Berührsicherheit sicherzustellen. Dies erfolgt vorteilhafterweise dadurch, dass der Brückenstecker an die erste Kontaktierungsöffnung derart angepasst ist, dass diese durch ihn nach Kontaktierung mit den ersten Steckanschlüssen abgedeckt ist.If the first plug connections are located inside the housing and are accessible via a first contacting opening in the housing, this makes it possible to ensure contact safety in a simple manner. This is advantageously carried out in that the bridge connector is adapted to the first contact opening such that it is covered by him after contacting the first plug-in connections.

Sind die Käfig-Zugfederklemmen zusätzlich mit zweiten Steckanschlüssen elektrisch verbunden, die im Inneren des Gehäuses liegen, und über eine zweite Kontaktierungsöffnung im Gehäuse zugänglich sind, so ist hiermit eine weitere Möglichkeit zum Anschluss an ein Energieverteilungssystem gegeben.If the cage-spring clips are additionally electrically connected to second plug-in connections, which are located in the interior of the housing, and are accessible via a second contact opening in the housing, so this is another way to connect to a power distribution system.

Vorteilhafterweise liegen die erste und die zweite Kontaktierungsöffnung des Strom-Einspeisemoduls an gegenüberliegenden Seiten des Gehäuses, so dass zu beiden Seiten jeweils ein Energieverteilungssystem auf einfache Weise angeschlossen werden kann.Advantageously, the first and the second contacting opening of the power supply module are located on opposite sides of the housing, so that in each case a power distribution system can be connected in a simple manner on both sides.

Vorteilhafterweise sind mindestens einer der ersten, zweiten, dritten und vierten Steckanschlüsse als Stromschienen-Abschnitte ausgeführt, die eine einfache Steckverbindung ermöglichen.Advantageously, at least one of the first, second, third and fourth plug-in connections are designed as busbar sections which enable a simple plug connection.

Ist der Brückenstecker mit Lyrakontakten ausgeführt, ermöglicht dies besonders einfach den Anschluss an Stromschienen.If the jumper plug is designed with Lyra contacts, this makes it particularly easy to connect to busbars.

Um Kurzschlüsse zwischen den Stromschienen-Abschnitten zu verhindern, sind die Stromschienen-Abschnitte durch isolierende Trennwände gegeneinander abgeschottet.In order to prevent short circuits between the busbar sections, the busbar sections are insulated from one another by insulating partitions.

Eine weitere vorteilhafte Ausbildung der Erfindung besteht, wenn das Strom-Einspeisemodul im über seine Befestigungsmittel festmontierten Zustand mittels des Brückensteckers mit einem Energieverteilungssystem elektrisch verbunden ist und wenn diese elektrische Verbindung nur durch Abnahme des Brückensteckers aufhebbar ist. Dies erlaubt nämlich eine Ausführung, bei der nach Abnahme des Brückensteckers die offene Trennstrecke zu den Kontakten des Energieverteilungssystems sichtbar ist.A further advantageous embodiment of the invention is when the power supply module is electrically connected in the fixed state via its fastening means by means of the bridge plug with a power distribution system and when this electrical connection can only be canceled by removing the jumper plug. This allows namely an embodiment in which after removal of the bridge connector, the open separation distance to the contacts of the power distribution system is visible.

Ein weiterer Vorteil besteht, wenn das Energieverteilungssystem in einem Träger aufgenommen ist, auf dem mindestens ein Schaltgerät, das an das Energieverteilungssystem angeschlossen ist, adaptiert ist. Ist ein Eingriff an dem Schaltgerät durch den Monteur vorgesehen, so braucht er lediglich den Brückenstecker zu ziehen und kann dann aufgrund der sichtbar offenen Trennstrecke diesen Eingriff am freigeschalteten Schaltgerät ungefährdet vornehmen.Another advantage is when the power distribution system is housed in a carrier on which at least one switching device connected to the power distribution system is adapted. If an intervention is provided on the switching device by the fitter, he only needs to pull the jumper plug and can then undertake this engagement on the unlocked switching device safely due to the visible open separation section.

Von dem üblicherweise als Sammelschienensystem ausgeführten Energieverteilungssystem erfolgt über Schaltgeräte der Anschluss von Verbrauchern.In FIG. 1 is a perspective view of a multi-phase encapsulated power supply module 1 according to the invention for use in the low-voltage switching device technology shown, which serves on the one hand for connection and contacting of the feed lines and for forwarding the current to an electrically coupled multi-phase power distribution system. From the usually implemented as a busbar system power distribution system via switching devices, the connection of consumers.

Neben dem Strom-Einspeisemodul 1 ist ein Träger 2 angeordnet, in dem ein hier nicht sichtbares Stromschienensystem aufgenommen ist und der Befestigungsmittel 3 zur mechanischen Adaptierung von Schaltgeräten aufweist.In addition to the power supply module 1, a carrier 2 is arranged, in which a busbar system, which is not visible here, is accommodated and has the fastening means 3 for the mechanical adaptation of switching devices.

Das Strom-Einspeisemodul gemäß FIG 1 und 2 ist dreiphasig mit einem Gehäuse 4 ausgebildet, in dessen Inneren drei als Käfig-Zugfederklemmen 5 ausgeführte Anschlussklemmen liegen wie sie aus der DE 197 11 051 A1 bekannt sind. Das Gehäuse 4 des Strom-Einspeisemoduls 1 weist zu jeder Käfig-Zugfederklemme 5 jeweils mindestens eine Leiter-Einführöffnung 6 und eine Betätigungsöffnung 7 zur Einführung eines Werkzeugs, z.B. eines Schraubendrehers auf, mit dem die Käfig-Zugfederklemme 5 in Bewegungs-Anschlussrichtung gemäß Pfeil 9 aufgedrückt werden kann, wie der Schnittdarstellung des Strom-Einspeisemoduls 1 gemäß FIG 2 zu entnehmen ist.The power supply module according to FIG. 1 and 2 is three-phase formed with a housing 4, in the interior of which three designed as a cage-Zugfederklemmen 5 terminals are as shown in the DE 197 11 051 A1 are known. The housing 4 of the power supply module 1 has for each cage-Zugfederklemme 5 each at least one conductor insertion opening 6 and an actuating opening 7 for insertion of a tool, such as a screwdriver, with the cage-tension spring clip 5 in the direction of movement-connection direction according to arrow. 9 can be pressed, as the sectional view of the power supply module 1 according to FIG. 2 can be seen.

Das Gehäuse 4 weist an seiner Befestigungsseite 13 einen Ausschnitt 10 mit zugehörigen Hutschienen-Befestigungsmitteln zum Aufschnappen auf eine Hutschiene auf, z.B. einen Schieber 11. An der der Befestigungsseite 13 gegenüberliegenden, dem Monteur nach Montage des Strom-Einspeisemoduls 1 zugewandten Gehäusewand 12 liegen die Leiter-Einführöffnungen 6 und die Betätigungsöffnungen 7 in der Bewegungs-Anschlussrichtung gemäß Pfeil 9 in Reihe hintereinander. Die Gehäusewand 12 verläuft nicht im Wesentlichen parallel zu der Befestigungsseite 13, sondern in einem schrägen Winkel, solcher Art, dass die Leiter-Einführöffnungen zur Befestigungsseite 13 von einer Seite beginnend einen zunehmenden Abstand haben. Dies erleichtert zumindest von einer Seite die Einführung der Einspeiseleitungen in Bewegungs-Anschlussrichtung gemäß Pfeil 9.The housing 4 has on its attachment side 13 a cutout 10 with associated DIN rail fastening means for snapping onto a top hat rail, for example a slide 11. At the attachment side 13 opposite the fitter facing the fitter after mounting the power feed module 1 housing wall 12 are the conductors -Einführöffnungen 6 and the actuating openings 7 in the movement-connection direction according to arrow 9 in series one behind the other. The housing wall 12 is not substantially parallel to the mounting side 13, but at an oblique angle, such that the Ladder insertion holes to the mounting side 13 starting from one side have an increasing distance. This facilitates, at least from one side, the introduction of the feed lines in the direction of movement connection according to arrow 9.

Von den Käfig-Zugfederklemmen 5 gehen elektrisch leitende Verbindungen 14 gemäß FIG 2 ab, die in ersten 15 und/oder zweiten Steckanschlüssen 16 enden, die hier als Stromschienen-Abschnitte ausgeführt sind (siehe auch FIG 1, 2).Of the cage-Zugfederklemmen 5 go electrically conductive connections 14 according to FIG. 2 from which terminate in first 15 and / or second plug-in terminals 16, which are designed here as busbar sections (see also FIG. 1, 2 ).

FIG 1, 2 und 3 zeigen die durch isolierende Trennwände 25 voneinander abgeschotteten Stromschienen-Abschnitte 15, 16, die im Inneren des Gehäuses 4 liegen und über eine erste 17 bzw. zweite Kontaktierungsöffnung 24 im Gehäuse 4 zugänglich sind. FIG. 1 . 2 and 3 show the insulated by partition walls 25 from each other busbar sections 15, 16 which lie in the interior of the housing 4 and are accessible via a first 17 and second contacting opening 24 in the housing 4.

Zur elektrischen Kontaktierung ist ein an die ersten 15 und zweiten Steckanschlüsse 16 angepasster Brückenstecker 18 vorgesehen, durch den die Steckanschlüsse 15, 16 mit dem mehrphasigen Energieverteilungssystem gemäß FIG 5 elektrisch verbindbar sind. Der Brückenstecker 18 ist gemäß FIG 4 mit Lyrakontakten 19 als Steckkontakten zum Anschluss an die Stromschienen-Abschnitte 15, 16 ausgestattet. Außerdem ist der Brückenstecker 18 hinsichtlich seines isolierenden Gehäuses derart an die Kontaktierungsöffnung 17 bzw. 24 angepasst, dass diese durch ihn nach Kontaktierung mit den Steckanschlüssen 15 oder 16 abgedeckt ist, womit die erforderliche Berührsicherheit geschaffen wird.For electrical contacting, a bridge plug 18 adapted to the first 15 and second plug connections 16 is provided, through which the plug connections 15, 16 are connected to the polyphase power distribution system FIG. 5 are electrically connected. The jumper plug 18 is according to FIG. 4 equipped with Lyrakontakten 19 as plug contacts for connection to the busbar sections 15, 16. In addition, the jumper plug 18 with respect to its insulating housing so adapted to the contact hole 17 and 24, that it is covered by him after contacting the plug-in terminals 15 or 16, whereby the required contact safety is provided.

Weist das Strom-Einspeisemodul 1 an gegenüberliegenden Seiten die ersten 15 und zweiten als Stromschienen ausgeführten Steckanschlüsse 16 mit den dazugehörigen Kontaktierungsöffnungen 17, 24 ein Gehäuse 4 auf, so ist auf einfache Weise mittels zweier Brückenstecker 18 eine Stromverteilung auf zwei Energieverteilungssysteme möglich, wobei in FIG 5 die Ankopplung eines Energieverteilungssystems auf einer Seite gezeigt ist.If the power supply module 1 has on opposing sides the first 15 and second plug connections 16 designed as busbars with the associated contact openings 17, 24, a housing 4 can be easily distributed by means of two bridge plugs 18 to two power distribution systems FIG. 5 the coupling of a power distribution system is shown on one side.

Die Abschrägung der Gehäusewand 12 mit den Leiter-Einführöffnungen 6 gemäß FIG 1 erleichtert die Einführung der Einspeiseleitungen von der oberhalb der Hutschiene liegenden Seite aus, auf der auch die als Stromschienen 16 ausgeführten Steckanschlüsse des Strom-Einspeisemoduls 1 liegen.The bevel of the housing wall 12 with the conductor insertion openings 6 according to FIG. 1 facilitates the introduction of the feed lines from the lying above the DIN rail side on which are also designed as bus bars 16 plug-in connections of the power supply module 1.

Bei einer Zuführung der Einspeiseleitungen von der gegenüberliegenden Seite aus, müsste dementsprechend die Schräge der Gehäusewand 12 spiegelsymmetrisch ausgeführt sein. Zur Lösung dieses Problems ist ein Strom-Einspeisemodul 1 gemäß FIG 3 vorgesehen, das mit dritten 26 und vierten 27 als Stromschienen ausgeführten Steckanschlüssen ausgestattet ist, die über eine dritte 28 und vierte Kontaktierungsöffnung 29 zugänglich sind. Diese werden bei Bedarf nach Drehung des Strom-Einspeisemoduls 1 um 180° verwendet, so dass Einspeiseleitungen von beiden Seiten auf einfache Weise einführbar sind. Im Übrigen entspricht das Strom-Einspeisemodul 1 gemäß FIG 3 der in FIG 2 dargestellten Ausführung mit den Käfig-Zugfederklemmen 5, den Leiter-Einführöffnungen 6, den Betätigungsöffnungen 7 und den elektrisch leitenden Verbindungen 14.When feeding the feed lines from the opposite side, accordingly, the slope of the housing wall 12 would have to be mirror-symmetrical. To solve this problem, a power supply module 1 according to FIG. 3 provided, which is equipped with third 26 and fourth 27 designed as busbars plug-in connections, which are accessible via a third 28 and fourth contact opening 29. These are used if necessary for rotation of the power supply module 1 by 180 °, so that feed lines from both sides can be easily inserted. Incidentally, the power supply module 1 corresponds to FIG FIG. 3 the in FIG. 2 illustrated embodiment with the cage-Zugfederklemmen 5, the conductor insertion openings 6, the actuating openings 7 and the electrically conductive connections fourteenth

In FIG 5 ist eine Draufsicht auf das Strom-Einspeisemodul 1 mit einem danebenliegenden Träger 20 vereinfacht dargestellt, um die erfindungswesentlichen Merkmale zu verdeutlichen. Im Träger 20 sind Stromschienen 21 eines Energieverteilungssystems integriert. An den Rändern weist der Träger 20 jeweils eine Kontaktierungsöffnung 22 auf, die den Kontaktierungsöffnungen 17 bzw, 24 des Strom-Einspeisemoduls 1 gleicht. Mittels des Brückensteckers 18 kann auf einfache Weise eine elektrische Steckverbindung zwischen dem Strom-Einspeisemodul 1 und dem Energieverteilungssystem hergestellt werden. Ebenso einfach ist die elektrische Verbindung nur durch Ziehen des Brückensteckers 18 aufhebbar, womit zugleich der Vorteil einer sichtbaren Trennstrecke für den Monteur gegeben ist. Die für den Monteur nicht verwendeten Steckanschlüsse sind durch entsprechende Abdeckungen 23 gemäß FIG 5 berührungssicher abdeckbar. An den am Träger 20 adaptierten, freigeschalteten Schaltgeräten ist darauf folgend durch den Monteur ein gefahrloser Eingriff möglich.In FIG. 5 is a simplified plan view of the power supply module 1 with an adjacent carrier 20 to illustrate the features essential to the invention. In the carrier 20 busbars 21 of an energy distribution system are integrated. At the edges, the carrier 20 in each case has a contacting opening 22 which is similar to the contacting openings 17 and 24 of the power supply module 1. By means of the jumper plug 18, an electrical plug connection between the power supply module 1 and the power distribution system can be produced in a simple manner. Just as simple is the electrical connection can be canceled only by pulling the bridge connector 18, which at the same time the advantage of a visible separation distance for the fitter is given. The plug connections not used for the installer are by corresponding covers 23 according to FIG. 5 Coverable with touch. At the adapted to the carrier 20, enabled Switchgear is then possible by the fitter a safe intervention.
