Definitions

  • the invention relates to an installation switching device with an insulating material, according to the preamble of claim 1.
  • Generic installation switching devices such as circuit breakers or residual current circuit breaker, have a front and an opposite mounting side and the front and the attachment side connecting narrow and broad sides, and comprise at least a first housing shell and at least one cover, by first connecting means, which at the broad sides engage the housing shell and the cover and hold together to form a circumferential joint line. Furthermore, the insulating housing of generic service switching devices in the narrow sides of receiving spaces for terminals.
  • An example of installation switching device with housing shells is in EP-A-0086698 disclosed.
  • the cover member may be formed as a second housing shell, so that an insulating housing formed from two collapsing on the circumferential joint line housing halves formed.
  • the first connection means are usually riveted joints. These hold the housing shell and the cover together at several riveting.
  • the rivet engages on both sides of the broad sides of the housing and penetrates the interior of the housing. Therefore, the position for the connecting rivet is not arbitrary, but riveted joints can only be placed where the switchgear components and assemblies inside the device leave room for it.
  • the rivet joints often for example 4 - 6 in number, are therefore distributed irregularly over the broadside of the case. In particular, it is not possible in the area of the receiving spaces for the terminals to act in a known manner first connection means, since the terminals prevent there a passage of connecting rivets.
  • the terminals are designed as screw terminals and are tightened when connecting a connecting conductor stronger than necessary, which can easily occur in the usual electrical installation without the use of a special torque screwdriver, it may happen that in the region of the terminals, the two housing parts, namely the housing shell and the cover, a little way diverge, the two housings are otherwise still held together firmly by the riveted joints.
  • housing parts made of thermoplastic since this material is softer and more flexible than, for example, a thermoset material.
  • a local divergence of the housing parts take place in the region of the terminals.
  • the divergence of the housing parts is undesirable, because over the resulting gap moisture and dirt can penetrate into the device interior and affect the functionality of the device.
  • a second connection means is provided in the region of a terminal receiving space and in the region of the narrow side of the housing associated therewith, which holds the housing shell and the cover part together there at the joint line.
  • the second connection means is a snap hook mounted in the housing interior near the narrow side on the housing shell or the cover part, which has a first latching surface mounted on the cover part or housing shell in a position corresponding to the snap hook when the housing shell is placed on top of each other and cover in a latched position can be latched.
  • the snap hook is formed as a in the region of the joint line perpendicular to the broad side protruding first resilient web, which carries at its free end a locking lug with a second locking surface.
  • the resilient web with the locking lug can be made very easy especially during injection molding of the housing shell or the cover. It can be made very flat and takes up very little space, so that it can be fitted in the area of the joint line still in the space between the terminal and the inner narrow side wall.
  • the first latching surface can be formed in a very advantageous manner by an undercut of a mounted on the narrow side in the joint line connecting bar.
  • the strip with the undercut is advantageously also already in injection molding of the housing half shell and the cover together with this produced.
  • the first latching surface forms an injection angle with the connecting strip, or at the second Detent surface forms an acute angle with the resilient web. Due to the acute angle a clawing of the two locking surfaces is so to speak achieved in each other, so that when a perpendicular to the broad sides outward force on the housing parts in the terminal clamps the locking of the locking lug in the pocket with the first locking surface can not be torn apart and Thus, a secure protection against divergence of the housing parts is guaranteed.
  • a locking element can be provided, which acts on the snap hook resiliently in the direction of Verrastungswolf and thus prevents unlatching of the cover of the housing shell in the region of the terminal receiving space unlatching.
  • the locking element is a near the undercut with the first locking surface mounted second resilient web, which runs approximately parallel to the first resilient web of the latching hook and resiliently acts on the latching hook in the direction of its Verrastungsdian.
  • FIG. 1 shows a partial view into the interior of a first housing half-shell 12 of a service switching device, such as a circuit breaker. It can be seen a front and a rear front side 14, 16, a mounting side 18 with a fixed nose 20, by means of which and in conjunction with one of the fixed nose 20 opposite, not shown here, movable nose the service switching device can be clamped on a standard profile support rail, a narrow side 22 and a front side 14, 16 and the attachment side 18 connecting broadside 24th
  • the free edges of the front and rear front sides 14, 16, the narrow side 22 and the attachment side 18 form a circumferential joint line 26, on which the first housing half shell 12 with the second housing half shell 28, which correspond to each other and together form the housing of the installation device, see FIG. 2 and 3 , collides when the housing is composed of the two housing half-shells 12, 28.
  • a terminal receiving space 34 is provided, which runs approximately parallel to the narrow side 22 between the rear front side 16 and the fastening side 18.
  • the terminal receiving space 34 serves to receive a terminal, by means of which a connection conductor can be connected to the service switching device.
  • connection conductor can be connected to the service switching device.
  • screw terminals are used for this purpose which by means of a clamping screw, a clamping piece can be pressed against a contact plate and thus the stripped end of the connecting lead to be connected between the clamping piece and the contact plate is clamped.
  • an opening 36 for the passage of a tool, such as a screwdriver, for actuating the clamping screw is provided on the rear front side 16, and on the narrow side 22 is in the vicinity of the mounting side 18, a further opening 38 for insertion of the connecting conductor.
  • the housing with the two housing half-shells can be advantageously made of a thermoplastic injection-molded.
  • Thermoplastic material is less expensive than the known thermoset material used, and is therefore used for example in devices in the lower price segment.
  • inwardly protruding cylindrical sleeves 30, 32 are mounted and manufactured in the same operation as the injection molding of the housing half-shell 12, so that they are integrally connected to the housing half-shell.
  • the sleeves 30, 32 serve to guide rivets with which the two housing halves of the service switching device together after successful installation of all required internal components and assemblies.
  • the riveting of the rivet pins takes place on the outside of the housing broadside, so that therefore attack the rivet connectors on the outside of the housing broad sides and squeeze the two housing halves.
  • an installation switching device comprises approximately between 4 and 6 riveted joints.
  • riveted joints can only be installed where there is enough space inside the housing. This limits the freedom in choosing suitable locations for setting rivet connections for holding the two housing halves together.
  • a snap hook 40 is formed near the narrow side 22 inside the housing. He is as one in the area of the joint line 26 perpendicular to the broadside 24 protruding resilient web 42 is formed, which carries a latching nose 44 at its free end.
  • the latching nose 44 carries a latching surface 46, which, as in the FIG. 3 represented forms an acute angle ⁇ with the resilient web 42.
  • the resilient web 42 can be produced in the same injection molding during injection molding of the housing half shell 12 and thus integrally connected to the housing half shell 12. It is made very narrow so that it does not take up any space for the terminal 48 in the terminal receiving space 34.
  • FIG. 3 shows a transparent view of the rear front side 16 of the service switching device in the region of the terminal 48, which in the FIG. 3 is shown inserted into the terminal receiving space 34.
  • a bar 50 projecting into the interior of the housing is added with an undercut 52.
  • the strip 50 with the undercut 52 is produced in the same injection molding during injection molding of the housing half shell 28 and thus integrally connected to the housing half shell 28.
  • the undercut 52 simultaneously forms a latching surface, which corresponds in the locked state with the latching surface 46 of the snap-action hook 40.
  • the undercut also forms an acute angle ⁇ with the resilient web 42.
  • the locking lug 44 on the resilient web 42 of the snap hook 40 carries a the bar 50 facing chamfer 54. If the two housing halves 12, 28 are placed on each other in the assembly of the housing, the resilient web by interaction of the bevel 54 with the bar 50 first into Housing interior pushed away until then in the end position, when the two housing halves lie on each other, also called Verrastungsposition, the lower end of the slope is reached and the latch 44 due to the restoring force of the resilient web 42 with the locking surface 46 in the through the undercut 52nd formed pocket snaps.
  • the acute angle ⁇ of the two locking surfaces 46, 52 thereby causes a self-locking, such that when a pulling apart of the two housing halves 12, 28 outwardly in the direction perpendicular to the broad side 24, the two locking surfaces 46, 52, so to speak dig into each other and a solution of latching connection is thereby largely prevented.
  • a second resilient web 56 is mounted near the undercut 52, which points perpendicular to the broad side of the housing from the second housing half 28 out in the direction of the first housing half 12 and approximately parallel to the first resilient web 42 of the snap hook 40th is oriented.
  • the second resilient web 56 carries at its free end a chamfer 58, which faces the first resilient web 42.
  • the locking lug 44 presses against the chamfer 58 on the second resilient web 56 and thereby bends it in the direction of the housing interior.
  • the second resilient web 56 is biased to some extent and acted upon with its restoring spring force the first resilient web 42 of the snap hook 40 outwardly in the direction of the bar 50 out.
  • the second resilient web 56 can also be considered as a locking element for the snap-action hook 40.
  • the advantage of this locking is as follows: too tight tightening of the clamping screw, resulting in improper handling in everyday work An installer may well occur, it will come in the terminal block to a divergence of the two housing halves 12, 28. It could happen that the locking lug 44 slips out of the pocket formed by the undercut 52 and thereby the locking is released.
  • the locking lug 44 is tracked in a divergence of the two housing halves 12, 28 in the outward direction, thus pushed in their Verrastungsposition, whereby the latching remains.
