Definitions

  • the US 2,047,126 shows an electrical plug-in device with a receptacle to be inserted into a socket and a male member having on its front side contact cylinder, which can be placed on contact pins on the receiving part.
  • the locking of the male part on the receiving part by means of a tangentially displaceable slide, which is force-loaded by a spring element in a plug-in position in which the slide engages behind an obliquely extending projection on the male part form fit. To release the lock, the slide must be pulled out manually against the force of the spring element.
  • US 2,806,213 A is to be taken from a connector having a receiving part with at least one provided in a body contact bearing.
  • a receiving part engages a tubular insertion part, in which at least one contact pin is provided, which corresponds to the contact bearing, wherein the tubular part engages over the base body.
  • the US 4 166 664 A shows an explosion-proof plug-in connection with a receiving part and a plug-in part, which have electrical contacts for both high-voltage and low-voltage conductors and are coaxially plugged together.
  • the DE 14 90 183 A1 relates to an explosion-proof plug-in connection, which has a plug-in part with at least one contact pin and a receiving part with at least one contact socket, which is mounted in a recess in a bore of an insulating body.
  • a sleeve mounted in the bore which consists of a sublimable material consists, which extinguishes a resulting before insertion of the contact pin into the contact socket arc by evaporation.
  • the in the US 2 626 974 A published explosion-proof connector comprises a receiving part and a plug-in part.
  • an insulating body is provided, which is surrounded at a distance from a metal housing and has insertion holes in which contact sockets are stored reset.
  • the male part also has a metal housing in which a base plate is provided with protruding contact pins. When mating the housing wall of the male reaches the distance between the insulator and metal housing of the receiving part and the contact pins are inserted through the insertion holes in the contact sockets.
  • the DE 199 07 846 C1 discloses an explosion proof connector having a receiving part and a male part.
  • the receiving part consists of an insulating body having a longitudinal bore in which a sealing sleeve and a contact socket are mounted.
  • the male part consists of an insulating piece with a blind hole-like recess in which a contact pin is mounted. The recess is bounded by a wall spaced from the contact pin.
  • the object of the invention is to develop a device unit of the type described above to the effect that a simple and safe replacement of control components and electrical installations in hazardous areas while maintaining the supply circuits is safe to carry out.
  • the device unit according to the invention has a plug-in device which has a plug-in part and a receiving part.
  • the male part is arranged on the underside of a change unit, in which various electrical fittings can be provided, and has at least one, preferably two to thirty, with larger plug-in parts possibly also significantly more, for example, sixty electrical contact pins, which in the downward direction point.
  • the contact pins, which are linked to the electrical fittings, may be suitably fastened in a base plate of the male part and protrude from this.
  • the plug-in part has a cylindrical wall which clearly projects beyond the contact pins and encloses them at a distance, so that the latter are securely protected within the space enclosed by the wall.
  • the length of the contact pins can advantageously be shorter by about half than the wall.
  • the receiving part of the plug-in device is associated with a base unit into which the exchange unit can be inserted.
  • the base unit may be releasably secured within a cabinet or other mounting and may have corresponding connections for the power supply.
  • the receiving part has at least one, preferably two to thirty, with larger receiving parts optionally also significantly more, for. sixty contact bearings, in which the contact pins of the male part can be inserted and which are linked to the terminals.
  • the contact bearings themselves can preferably be mounted in a base body of the receiving part in such a way that the free end side of the base body and the insertion openings of the contact bearing are approximately flush.
  • the receiving part has a cylindrical wall, which encloses the main body with the contact bearings at a distance and preferably clearly surmounted, wherein the length of the contact bearing is advantageously about half shorter than the surrounding wall.
  • an annular recess may be formed at the end facing away from the free end of the base body whose depth is approximately equal to its width, wherein the width of the recess is suitably approximately equal to the thickness of the cylindrical wall of the male part.
  • the degree of attack in the insertion direction is such that a minimum length is given, which is preferably considerably longer than an existing in this insertion between the free ends of the contact pin and the insertion of the contact bearing minimum air space.
  • the existing between the surfaces in the overreach narrow distance and its minimum length in the insertion comply with the guidelines of explosion protection, so that a so-called ignition-proof gap is formed.
  • the interaction of the wall of the male part and the wall of the female part can also be such that the wall of the female part is overlapped by the wall of the male part.
  • the outer diameter of the wall of the receiving part is only slightly smaller than the inner diameter of the wall of the male part to form the standard ignition-proof gap.
  • the contact pins overcome the minimum air gap between their free ends and the insertion openings of the contact bearings and penetrate into the contact bearings.
  • the plug-in part associated wall the inner surface is guided on the peripheral surface of the main body of the receiving part slidably, with its free end face in the annular recess at the base of the body.
  • a locking device which can be brought by hand both in a locking and in a release position.
  • This can be done via a slide, which is advantageously mounted on the base unit.
  • the slider may have at least one projection, which in engages a groove of the exchange unit.
  • two mutually spaced projections may be provided on the slide, which engage in a respective groove formed on opposite sides of the exchange unit groove.
  • Each groove can, seen in the insertion of the exchange unit, have an opening at its beginning.
  • the slider When the exchange unit is inserted into the base unit, the slider is in its retracted position and the projection passes through the opening in the groove in which the projection is tightly guided.
  • the groove has in the insertion a first straight and then a serpentine or meandering course, which is formed by a bend, a Schräganieri, a hairpin and a renewed Schräganieri. If now the projection at the end of the groove straight in the Nutabknickung and the slide on the base unit is slightly pulled forward, then the projection comes in the region of the Schräganteries and the exchange unit is further displaced towards the base unit. At the end of the Schräganieri is the NutspitzLitee.
  • the plug-in device When the projection has arrived here, the plug-in device is pushed into one another so far that between the free ends of the contact pins and the insertion of the contact bearing of the aforementioned minimum air gap. In this position, in the overlapping region of the cylindrical wall of the plug-in part and the cylindrical wall of the receiving part but also the above-described ignition-puncture-proof gap is already formed, so that in the interior of the plug-in device there is a pressure-proof space satisfying the safety requirements. If an explosion would be triggered by sparking in this pressure-resistant space, the latter could not spread due to the ignition-punctured gap.
  • the exchange unit can not be pushed back by the pressure of the explosion in pressure-resistant space, so pushed away from the base unit, so that always a high safety standard is guaranteed.
  • the projection from the hairpin is passed over the second inclined rise to the end of the groove.
  • the exchange unit is further displaced against the base unit and the contact pins of the male part engage in the contact bearings of the female part.
  • the locking device is to be brought by correspondingly reverse manipulations of the slider in the release position.
  • An exchange of the exchange unit can be carried out in the above-described explosion-proof design in the electrical Steckvoriquess Colour largely uninterrupted while maintaining the supply circuits even in explosive areas even trained semi-skilled, with the inclusion of the above-described locking device not only in the active operating position of the unit, but also In critical transition phases during the connection or disconnection of exchange and base unit additionally high security is given.
