Description

Die Erfindung betrifft eine Anschlusseinrichtung nach dem Oberbegriff des Anspruchs 1.The invention relates to a connection device according to the preamble of claim 1.

Eine solche Anschlusseinrichtung ist im Stand der Technik durch die EP-A-1 348 815 bekannt geworden. Diese weist zur Befestigung einer Anschlussdose eine Platte (Platine 17) auf, die einerseits mit ersten Befestigungsmitteln an einem Flansch der Anschlussdose und mit zweiten Befestigungsmitteln an der Rückseite einer Wand befestigt wird.Such a connection device is known in the art by the EP-A-1 348 815 known. This has for mounting a junction box on a plate (board 17), which is fastened on the one hand with first fastening means to a flange of the junction box and with second fastening means on the back of a wall.

Eine solche Anschlusseinrichtung ermöglicht die Montage einer Auslaufarmatur bei Brauchwasser-Installationen. Eine weitere Anschlusseinrichtung ist im Stand der Technik beispielsweise durch die DE-U-90 17843 bekannt geworden. Zum Montieren der Anschlussdose an einer Wand, beispielsweise einer Gipskartonwand wird diese an einen Durchbruch der Wand rückseitig an diese angelegt. Mittels Schrauben wird die Anschlussdose von der Vorderseite der Wand her angeschraubt, wobei die Schrauben in Durchgangslöcher der Wand liegend in den Flansch des Dosenkörpers eingedreht werden. Da der Flansch des Dosenkörpers beim Eindrehen der Schrauben verdeckt ist, ist eine solche Montage vergleichsweise schwierig. Der Abstand der Schrauben zum Rand der Wandöffnung ist vergleichsweise klein, so dass hier die Gefahr einer ungenügenden Befestigung besteht.Such a connection device allows the installation of an outlet fitting in service water installations. Another connection device is in the prior art, for example by the DE-U-90 17843 known. To mount the junction box on a wall, such as a plasterboard wall it is applied to an opening of the wall on the back of this. By means of screws, the junction box is screwed from the front of the wall, wherein the screws are screwed into through holes of the wall in the flange of the can body. Since the flange of the can body is hidden when screwing the screws, such a mounting is relatively difficult. The distance between the screws to the edge of the wall opening is relatively small, so that there is a risk of insufficient attachment here.

Die EP-B-0 166234 offenbart eine Anschlusseinrichtung, bei welcher die Anschlussdose einen Flansch aufweist, in den Muttern eingegossen sind. Diese Muttern erlauben ebenfalls eine Befestigung der Anschlussdose mit frontseitig in die Wand eingeschraubten Schrauben. Eine Montage ist dann besonders schwierig, wenn die Rückseite der Wand bei der Montage nicht oder nur schwer zugänglich ist.The EP-B-0166234 discloses a connection device in which the junction box has a flange, are cast in the nuts. These nuts also allow attachment of the junction box with screwed in front of the wall screws. An assembly is particularly difficult if the back of the wall during installation is difficult or impossible to access.

Bekannt sind auch Anschlusseinrichtungen, bei denen die Anschlussdose an ein Montagegestell angeschraubt wird. Die Montage ist hier wesentlich einfacher, da der Flansch nicht verdeckt ist.Also known are connection devices in which the junction box is screwed to a mounting frame. The assembly is much easier here, since the flange is not covered.
