Definitions

  • the invention relates to a device for contacting a plurality of conductor wires according to the preamble of patent claim 1 and a method for subsequent contacting of a lighting system according to the preamble of patent claim 12.
  • Such devices for contacting multiple conductor wires are used in lighting systems such as overhead lighting systems to achieve illumination of rooms or walkways.
  • lighting systems such as overhead lighting systems to achieve illumination of rooms or walkways.
  • LED inorganic and organic light emitting diodes
  • the lighting strip systems are already contacted during production at the factory.
  • the positioning of the contacting is already specified in these systems.
  • today's contacts allow for lighting systems only a common and simultaneous contacting all the conductors at once, whereby a high force is required in the contact.
  • US 2007/066123 A1 discloses a device according to the preamble of claim 1.
  • the solution according to the invention for a device for contacting a plurality of conductor leads is based on a carrier element having recording means for the conductor leads, a placement part which has contacting contacts formed as cutting contacts for the conductor leads, being placed on the carrier element.
  • the contact means formed as cutting contacts can be fixed by NO each in a holder. In this way it is possible to achieve a simple and subsequently feasible contacting of several conductor wires in a lighting system. It is advantageous that the device for contacting a plurality of conductor wires can be positioned first. It can then be moved in the assembled state along the conductor wire in the rail. Subsequently, the individual can be fixed by means of cutting contacts formed as a contacting. Thus, only a small amount of force for contacting is necessary.
  • Fig. 1 shows a first view of the device for contacting a plurality of conductor wires (3).
  • the device has a carrier element (1) with receiving means (4) for the conductor wires (3).
  • the individual conductor wires (3) can be inserted into the receiving means (4) and are thus placed correctly (see also Fig. 3 ) to allow proper contact.
  • a Aufmeneil (2) which via contacting means (5) for the conductor wires (3) and which can be placed on the carrier element (1), is present.
  • the contacting means (5) can be fixed by means for closing in each case in a holder.
  • the support element (1) and the attachment part (2) can be made as an injection molded part and are preferably made of an electrically non-conductive material such as plastic.
  • the contacting means (5) are formed as per se known cutting contacts (IDC).
  • IDC per se known cutting contacts
  • piercing elements piercing contacts
  • IDC cutting contacts
  • the conductor wire but laterally cut through the insulation of the conductor wire to allow electrical contact with the preferably rigid lines. It is particularly advantageous in rigid lines, since it is usually difficult to perforate or penetrate a rigid pipe. This principle is on Fig. 7a and Fig. 7b presented and explained further below.
  • the means for closing are designed as normally open contacts (6), which are movably mounted in the attachment part (2) about a bearing point (8) and have a latching means (17).
  • Fig. 1a shows an enlarged view of a section of the Fig. 1 , wherein in this view, a part of the Aufmeneils (2) and the contacting means (5) and the shutter (6) are shown.
  • the brackets can be designed as slide control (7), in which the latching means (17) of the shutter (6) can be fixed.
  • the cutting contacts (IDC) (5) can be movably mounted about a pivot point (9), for example, pivotally mounted, and can be contacted by fixing the closer (6) via the latching means (17) each with a conductor core (3).
  • the cutting contacts can be made as a stamped part and are preferably made of electrically conductive material, such as metallic material.
  • FIG. 2a to Fig. 2c show further views of the device according to the invention, especially the expiration of contacting by the closer (6), preferably by actuation by means of a screwdriver (18) or other tool.
  • the closer (6) may preferably be actuated by a screwdriver (18) or other tool.
  • the shutter (6) has, preferably an L-shaped form is mounted in the Aufmeneil (2) such that it is pivotally mounted about a bearing point (8). He may for this purpose actuating means (22), so that the shutter (6) by a screwdriver (18) or other tool can be actuated.
  • the actuating means (22) can preferably be an opening or a slot which is arranged on the upper side of the closer (6).
  • the latching means (17) are preferably mounted on the bearing point (8) opposite side of the shutter (6).
  • the latching means (17) may be formed as a latching lug.
  • the contacting can thus be achieved so that by means of screwdrivers (18) or other tool via a rotary-pressing movement of the shutter (6) and the contacting means (5) in opposite directions about their bearing points (8, 9) pivoted or rotated and thus over the slide control (7) a fixation of the shutter (6) and the contacting means (5) is made possible.
  • this contacting can be done in such a way that when clicking a clear 'clicking' perceives as audible noise.
  • Fig. 3 shows a front view of the support element (1) and the Aufforceeils (2).
  • the carrier element (1) may have a first guide means (14) and the attachment part (2) have a second guide means (13), wherein when placing the attachment part (2) in the carrier element (1), the two guide means (13,14 ) can enable a correct assembly.
  • the support element (1) has spacers (11) and holding means (12), which serve to fix in the rail (19) (see 4 and FIG. 5 ).
  • the spacer (11) and the holding means (12) may be integrally formed with the support member (1), as in Fig. 3 shown. But it is also possible that they are formed as a separate element, for example in Fig. 7a the carrier element (1) without spacers (11) and without holding means (12) is shown. It is conceivable that the spacer (11) and the holding means (12) are mounted on the carrier element (1).
  • the spacer (11) and the holding means (12) may be formed integrally or as separate elements.
  • Fig. 4 shows a perspective view of the device according to the invention.
  • the receiving part (10) can receive a contact piece (23) mounted on the carrier element (1) when placing the attachment part (2) in the carrier element (1).
  • the counterpart (23) may be formed barb-shaped and in the receiving part (10), which has a latching, for example, a notch or recess, are engaged.
  • a receiving part (10) can be attached to each side face or also at each end of a side face of the placement part (2).
  • the receiving means (4) each form a circle around the conductor wires (3) and can preferably largely enclose them, for example in a proportion of 2/3. In each case has a receiving means (4) on one side by a raised extension, which has a bulge at least on one side.
  • This extension can be slightly swung or pushed to the side, so that the conductor wires (3) can be used.
  • the extensions serve as a fixation and are limited by the inserted conductor wires (3) in their flexibility. Thus, a secure recording of the conductor wires (3) is ensured.
  • the conductor wires are preferably made of rigid cables, which have an insulation.
  • Fig. 5 shows a perspective view of the device according to the invention, as it can be used in a rail (19) of a lighting system.
  • the carrier element (1) can be inserted into a profile rail (19) of a trunking system.
  • the holding means (12) can have a clip (16) and the attachment part (2) via a snap-in nose (20), wherein when the attachment part (2) is placed in the carrier element (1) the snap-in nose (20) is pushed through the clip (16 ) can be fixed.
  • a grip surface (15) can be arranged on the attachment part (2), which can enable a displacement of the device in a profile rail.
  • the gripping surface (15) may have a depression about 2 cm in diameter to form a thumb guide or actuating surface.
  • Fig. 6 shows a factory-mounted device (24) and a device according to the invention (25) in a rail (19) of a lighting system.
  • the factory-mounted device (24) has no closer or actuating means. When mounting in the factory, the necessary contact is made and this can not be adjusted later.
  • the device (25) according to the invention may preferably be suitable for the subsequent contacting of a lighting strip system. It can, for example, only the lighting system with the support element (1) and the attachment part (2) are fitted without a contacting of the conductor wires (3) must be made immediately. It can be the assembly of the lighting system with the support element (1) and the attachment part (2) already done at the lamp manufacturer and thus pre-equipped delivered. De contacting the conductor wires (3) can also be done only during the installation of the lighting system. This offers the advantage that the user can still freely choose the positioning of the individual contacting points. So far, this possibility was not given, as the contact already made in the manufacture of the lighting system with the factory-mounted device (24).
  • a light band system can be constructed with a device according to the invention.
  • the light band system may be suitable for illumination with gas discharge lamps or light emitting diodes (organic or inorganic).
  • At least part of the conductor wires (3) of the lighting system can be control lines of a bus system.
  • a lighting system can be constructed with at least one light band system in a simple manner or be extended later.
  • the cutting contact (5) is not yet in contact with the conductor core (3).
  • the cutting elements (26) will cut through the insulation (27) of the conductor wire (3) and make contact with the conductive part (28) of the conductor wire (3). In this way, contacting the conductor core (3) can be achieved by actuating the closer (6).
  • the cutting contacts (5) are also suitable for contacting different conductor cross sections.
  • These cutting contacts (5) are best suited for rigid conductors (for example for the lighting industry and / or for a through-wiring) made of PVC, Teflon, silicone, TPE, etc.
  • the cutting contacts (5) are also at higher currents (for the Invention, ie when used in lighting systems, necessary) used, which in turn is not possible with a piercing-contacting.
  • Piercing contacts are only suitable for applications in connection with stranded or finely stranded conductors with insulation made of soft material (for example made of rubber, TPE, etc ).
  • the piercing contacts are only suitable for smaller currents.
  • Fig. 7b the carrier element (1) without spacers (11) and without holding means (12) is shown. It is conceivable that the spacer (11) and the holding means (12) are mounted on the carrier element (1).
  • the spacer (11) and the holding means (12) may be formed integrally or as separate elements.
  • Fixing means (29) can be present on the carrier element (1) in order to fix the spacer (11) and the holding means (12) to it.
  • the fixing means (29) may be arranged on the underside of the carrier element (1) and be designed as barb-shaped retaining clips.
  • the spacer (11) with the holding means (12) attached or connected thereto may have openings to be attached to the fixing means (29) (for example by snapping the barb-shaped retaining clips in the openings).
