Die Schalteinrichtung weist eine am Steckdosenzentralstück festlegbare Leiterplatte auf, die über Anschlusselemente elektrisch leitend mit den zugehörigen Kontaktteilen des Sockelteiles in Verbindung steht.An according to the preamble of the main claim electrical earthing contact socket is through DE 20 2006 006 105 U1 known. This electrical safety socket has a the contact parts for contacting the plug part and the connected electrical lines of the power supply network of the building exhibiting base part on which a socket center piece can be fastened. In addition, the electrical safety socket has a switching device, on which additional functions on and / or can be switched off, and wherein the grounded socket is provided with a grounding bracket and provided for contacting the connector pins and the electrical lines contact parts receiving base part to which a is attached to receive the plug to be connected socket center. The switching device has a fixable on the center socket PCB, which is electrically connected via connection elements with the associated contact parts of the base part in combination.

Des Weiteren ist durch die EP 1 610 422 A1 ist eine elektrische Schutzkontaktsteckdose bekannt geworden, die zur Kontaktierung der Steckerstifte sowie der elektrischen Kabel Kontaktteile aufweist, die im Sockelteil angeordnet sind. Außerdem ist ein Tragring vorhanden. Am Tragring ist ein Steckdosenzentralstück befestigt, welches zumindest ein Lichtleitelement und zumindest ein Leuchtmittel aufweist. Zudem ist das Steckdosenzentralstück in zumindest einem seiner Kantenbereiche zur Festlegung eines Lichtleitelementes vorgesehen, wozu ein Einschubkanal dient. Das Steckdosenzentralstück weist zudem in einem seiner Kantenbereiche eine Aussparung zum Durchtritt zumindest eines Lichtleitelementes auf.Furthermore, by the EP 1 610 422 A1 an electrical safety socket has become known, which has contact parts for contacting the plug pins and the electrical cable, which are arranged in the base part. There is also a support ring. On the support ring, a socket central piece is attached, which has at least one light-guiding element and at least one light-emitting means. In addition, the socket central piece is provided in at least one of its edge regions for fixing a light-guiding element, for which purpose an insertion channel is used. The socket centerpiece also has in one of its edge regions a recess for the passage of at least one light-guiding element.

Zudem ist durch die EP 1 848 015 A1 ein elektrisches/elektronisches Installationsgerät der Gebäudesystemtechnik bekannt geworden, auf dessen Oberseite alle zur Bedienung notwendigen Funktionselemente angeordnet sind. Zu dem Zweck ein elektrisches/elektronisches Installationsgerät zu schaffen, das nicht nur hinsichtlich seines in die Installationsdose hineinragenden Bereiches besonders kompakt ausgeführt ist und somit bei seiner Installation eine besonders einfache und kostengünstige Handhabung ermöglicht, sondern darüber hinaus hinsichtlich der Verwendung verschiedener Applikationen besonders variabel ausgestaltet ist, sind auf der Unterseite ein- und derselben ersten Leiterplatte sowohl die für die jeweilige Applikation notwendigen, als auch ein erster Teil der für den Betrieb in einem Bussystem notwendigen Funktionsbauteile angeordnet, und steht die erste Leiterplatte elektrisch leitend mit einer zweiten Leiterplatte in Verbindung, auf welcher der zweite Teil der für den Betrieb im Bussystem notwendigen Funktionsbauteile angeordnet sind, und steht die zweite Leiterplatte mit einer, der Oberseite der ersten Leiterplatte zugeordneten, Anzeigeeinrichtung in Verbindung. Dieses elektrische/elektronische Installationsgerät stellt keine Schutzkontaktsteckdose dar.In addition, through the EP 1 848 015 A1 an electrical / electronic installation device of the building system technology has become known, on the upper side all necessary for the operation of functional elements are arranged. For the purpose of creating an electrical / electronic installation device that is designed to be particularly compact not only in terms of its projecting into the installation box area and thus allows for its installation a particularly simple and cost-effective handling, but also is particularly variable in terms of the use of different applications , On the bottom of the same first circuit board both necessary for the respective application, as well as a first part of the necessary for operation in a bus system functional components, and the first circuit board is electrically connected to a second circuit board in connection, on which the second part of the functional components necessary for operation in the bus system are arranged, and the second printed circuit board is connected to a display device associated with the upper side of the first printed circuit board. This electrical / electronic installation device is not a safety socket.

Außerdem ist durch die CH 689 927 A5 eine Sicherheitssteckdose bekannt geworden, dessen Steckkontakte mit einer auf Fehlerstrom oder Differenzstrom ansprechende Schutzeinrichtung verbunden sind. Diese Sicherheitssteckdose ist insbesondere für Unterputzmontage in Feuchträumen vorgesehen. Für das Einschalten der Schutzeinrichtung ist ein Kontaktträger aus einer kontaktfreien Stellung in eine Kontaktschließstellung bewegbar und in dieser Stellung elektromagnetisch sicherbar. Bei Auftreten eines eine Schaltelektronik aktivierenden Fehler- oder Differenzstroms ist die elektromagnetische Sicherung zur Rückführung des Kontaktträgers in seine kontaktfreie Stellung, und damit für das Ausschalten der Schutzeinrichtung lösbar. Der Kontaktträger ist als Doppelhebel mit einem gabelförmigen Kontaktabschnitt ausgebildet und an einem Schieber schwenkbar gelagert, wobei der Hebelarm mit einer Rückholfeder verbunden ist. Zur Realisierung einer solchen Sicherheitssteckdose ist eine aufwendige Elektromechanik notwendig, was in vielen Fällen nicht erwünscht ist.Moreover, by the CH 689 927 A5 a safety socket has become known, the plug contacts are connected to a responsive to residual current or differential current protection device. This safety socket is especially intended for flush mounting in damp rooms. For switching on the protective device is a contact carrier of a non-contact Position movable into a contact closed position and electromagnetically secured in this position. Upon the occurrence of a switching electronics activating fault or differential current is the electromagnetic fuse for returning the contact carrier in its non-contact position, and thus for switching off the protective device solvable. The contact carrier is designed as a double lever with a fork-shaped contact portion and pivotally mounted on a slider, wherein the lever arm is connected to a return spring. To realize such a safety socket a complex electromechanics is necessary, which is not desirable in many cases.

Die Vorderseite der Schalttafel weist eine Halterung für ein Steckdosen- oder Steckermodul auf. Die Schalttafel sorgt für Isolierung und elektrische Verbindung des beiliegenden Stromkabels an das Modul. Modulkontakte stellen die elektrische Verbindung zu den Schalttafelkontakten her. Die Schalttafelhalterung weist Schutzstrukturen auf, die ein versehentliches Berühren und Kurzschließen der Schalttafelkontakte verhindert.In addition, through the US Pat. No. 6,341,981 B1 an electrical socket system has become known, which allows snap-fitting and Ausrast removal of socket and switch modules to be exposed without high-voltage conductors allowed. The system includes an electrical outlet, a control panel, a socket or switch module and a corresponding front panel. The rear of the panel has mounting points to guide a power cable through the rear of the box. The front of the panel has a holder for a socket or plug module. The panel provides insulation and electrical connection of the enclosed power cord to the module. Module contacts provide the electrical connection to the panel contacts. The panel mount has protective structures that prevent accidental touching and shorting of the panel contacts.

Die Leiterplatte 5 ist ebenfalls im Wesentlichen rechteckförmig ausgebildet und mit zwei Tastschaltelementen 6 und einer elektronischen Baueinheit 7 bestückt.As in particular from FIG. 4 It can be seen, according to the second embodiment of the housing part 9 a plurality of eyebolts 17 are formed, via which the housing part 9 by means of screws 18 is screwed to the underside of the socket center piece 4, as also in particular FIG. 4 evident. The housing part 9 has a substantially rectangular shape and is associated with one of its narrow sides of the plug pot of the socket center piece 4. The printed circuit board 5 is also substantially rectangular in shape and equipped with two Tastschaltelementen 6 and an electronic unit 7.

Bei beiden Ausführungsbeispielen ist zur Betätigung des auf der Leiterplatte 5 angeordneten Tastschaltelementes 6 bzw. der auf der Leiterplatte 5 angeordneten Tastschaltelemente 6 ein als Betätigungstaste ausgeführtes Betätigungselement 12 vorgesehen. Bei Bedarf können selbstverständlich auch mehrere Betätigungselemente 12 vorgesehen werden. Das Betätigungselement 12 ist als rechteckförmige Betätigungstaste ausgeführt und längsverschieblich in einer entsprechenden Ausnehmung des Steckdosenzentralstückes 4 angeordnet, wie insbesondere aus Figur 1 hervorgeht. Zur Befestigung der elektrischen Schutzkontaktsteckdose am Einbauort sind wie üblich die Tragplatte 13 und zwei Befestigungskrallen 14 vorgesehen. Außerdem ist wie üblich das Steckdosenzentralstück 4 von einem Rahmen 15 umgeben.In both embodiments, an actuation element 12 designed as an actuation key is provided for actuation of the pushbutton switching element 6 arranged on the printed circuit board 5 or the pushbutton switching elements 6 arranged on the printed circuit board 5. If required, of course, a plurality of actuators 12 may be provided. The actuating element 12 is designed as a rectangular actuating button and arranged longitudinally displaceable in a corresponding recess of the socket center piece 4, as in particular from FIG. 1 evident. As usual, the support plate 13 and two fastening claws 14 are provided for fastening the electrical safety socket at the installation. In addition, as usual, the socket center 4 is surrounded by a frame 15.

Wie insbesondere aus Figur 4 hervorgeht, weist der beim zweiten Ausführungsbeispiel zur Anwendung kommende Rahmen abweichend vom üblichen Standard eine rechteckförmige, in einer Richtung über die Tragplatte 13 hinausragenden Rahmen 15 und ein entsprechend ausgeführtes, ebenfalls größeres Steckdosenzentralstück 4 auf. Diese Abmessungen sind insbesondere deshalb gewählt, um im Vergleich zum ersten Ausführungsbeispiel ein größer dimensioniertes Betätigungselement 12 verwenden zu können.As in particular from FIG. 4 As can be seen, the frame used in the second embodiment, deviating from the usual standard on a rectangular, in one direction on the support plate 13 protruding frame 15 and a correspondingly executed, also larger socket center piece 4. These dimensions are particular Therefore chosen to use in comparison to the first embodiment, a larger-sized actuator 12 can.

Wie bereits erwähnt, sind bei beiden Ausführungsbeispielen im Sockelteil 3 Kontaktteile 2 angeordnet, die zur Kontaktierung der Steckerstifte des einzuführenden Steckers und der elektrischen Leitungen des Stromversorgungsnetzes des Gebäudes (der Einfachheit halber nicht dargestellt) vorgesehen sind. Zur Kontaktierung der elektrischen Leitungen sind diese elektrischen Kontaktteile 2 mit sogenannten Federklemmen ausgerüstet. Über die beiden Anschlusselemente 8, die beiden Schraubendruckfedern S und die beiden Zusatzkontaktelemente 16 steht die elektrische Leiterplatte 5 elektrisch leitend mit zwei der im Sockelteil 3 angeordneten Kontaktteile 2 in Verbindung, siehe insbesondere Figur 1 und Figur 4.As already mentioned, contact parts 2 are arranged in both embodiments in the base part 3, which are provided for contacting the plug pins of the plug to be inserted and the electrical lines of the power supply network of the building (not shown for simplicity). For contacting the electrical lines, these electrical contact parts 2 are equipped with so-called spring terminals. About the two connection elements 8, the two helical compression springs S and the two additional contact elements 16 is the electrical circuit board 5 electrically conductive with two of the arranged in the base part 3 contact parts 2 in conjunction, see in particular FIG. 1 and FIG. 4 ,

Wird vom Benutzer das Tastschaltelement 6 bzw. die Tastschaltelemente 6 durch Betätigung der zugehörigen Betätigungselemente 12 betätigt, wird dadurch in der elektronischen Baueinheit 7 ein zur Funktionsbeeinflussung notwendiges Telegramm erzeugt, welches über zumindest eine elektrische Leitung des Stromversorgungsnetzes des Gebäudes an die angeschlossenen Verbraucher (der Einfachheit halber nicht dargestellt) weitergegeben wird. Zumindest ein an das Stromversorgungsnetz des Gebäudes angeschlossener Verbraucher weist eine solche Telegramme auswertende Auswerteeinheit auf, so dass dieser Verbraucher in seiner Funktion entsprechend beeinflusst wird. Die Verbraucher können dabei z. B. als Leuchte, Jalousiemotor, Markisenmotor, Heizeinrichtung usw. ausgeführt sein.If the user actuates the pushbutton switching element 6 or the pushbutton switching elements 6 by actuation of the associated actuation elements 12, a telegram necessary for influencing the function is thereby generated in the electronic structural unit 7, which transmits via at least one electrical line of the power supply network of the building to the connected consumers (simplicity half not shown) is passed. At least one consumer connected to the power supply network of the building has such an evaluation unit evaluating such telegrams so that this load is correspondingly influenced in its function. The consumers can z. B. as a lamp, blind motor, awning motor, heater, etc. be executed.

Selbstverständlich können die Daten und/oder Telegramme, welche von der elektronischen Baueinheit 7 erzeugt werden auch funkbasiert ausgesendet werden, wenn die elektronische Baueinheit 7 mit einem Funksender ausgerüstet ist, wobei dann die Verbraucher mit einer entsprechenden Funkauswerteeinheit versehen sein müssen.Of course, the data and / or telegrams which are generated by the electronic module 7 are also transmitted radio-based, if the electronic module 7 is equipped with a radio transmitter, in which case the consumer must be provided with a corresponding radio evaluation unit.
