Nachfolgend wird die Erfindung unter Bezug auf die Zeichnung anhand von Ausführungsbeispielen näher beschrieben. Es zeigt: The invention will be described in more detail below with reference to the drawing with reference to exemplary embodiments. It shows:

Fig. 1 zeigt eine perspektivische Ansicht einer Sammelanschlussvorrichtung 1 , die beispielhaft zum Anschluss von sechs Leitern (die hier nicht dargestellt sind) ausge- legt ist. Diese Leiter können beispielsweise Leiter an einer Photovoltaikanlage sein. 1 shows a perspective view of a collecting connection device 1, which by way of example is designed to connect six conductors (which are not shown here). These conductors can be, for example, conductors on a photovoltaic system.
Die Anschlussvorrichtung weist eine der Anzahl anzuschließender Leiter entsprechende Anzahl von aneinander reihbaren bzw. in Fig. 1 aneinander gereihten Anschluss-Reihenklemmen 2 auf. The connecting device has a number of conductors to be connected in a corresponding number of connection terminal blocks 2 which can be connected to each other or are arranged in a row in FIG. 1.
Diese Anschluss-Reihenklemmen 2 weisen jeweils aneinander reihbare, scheibenar- tige Isolierstoffgehäuse 3 auf und einen in dem Isolierstoffgehäuse 3 angeordneten Leiteranschluss 4 (siehe Fig. 4a), der hier in bevorzugter Ausgestaltung als Schraub- anschluss ausgebildet ist. Alternativ könnte der Leiteranschluss 4 aber auch in anderer Anschlusstechnik, so als Sammelschienen-Federanschluss oder isolationsdurchdringender Anschluss ausgebildet sein (hier jeweils nicht dargestellt). Der Leiteranschluss 4 ist jeweils derart ausgerichtet, dass ein Leiter in Richtung Y in eine Öffnung 5 in einer der Schmalseiten des Isolierstoffgehäuses 3 einsetzbar ist. These connection terminal blocks 2 each have mutually frictional disc-shaped insulating material housing 3 and a conductor connection 4 arranged in the insulating housing 3 (see FIG. 4 a), which in a preferred embodiment is designed as a screw connection. Alternatively, however, the conductor connection 4 could also be formed in other connection technology, such as a busbar spring connection or insulation-penetrating connection (not shown here in each case). The conductor connection 4 is in each case aligned such that a conductor in the direction Y can be inserted into an opening 5 in one of the narrow sides of the insulating housing 3.
Die Anschluss-Reihenklemmen weisen ferner einen Sammelschienen- Federanschluss 6 zur Kontaktierung einer Sammelschiene 7 auf. The connection terminal blocks also have a busbar spring connection 6 for contacting a busbar 7.
Der Sammelschienen-Federanschluss 6 ist jeweils in einem Betätigungselement, vorzugsweise einem Schieberelement 8, angeordnet, welches an dem Isolierstoffgehäuse 3 beweglich, insbesondere verschieblich geführt ist (siehe auch Fig. 4b). Derart wird die Sammelschiene vorteilhaft abgedeckt, insbesondere fingersicher abgedeckt. Der Schieberelement 8 ist hier vorteilhaft senkrecht zur Anreihrichtung an dem Isolierstoffgehäuse 3 verschieblich geführt (beispielsweise mit Hilfe einer Nut- /Federanordnung 19 zwischen dem Schieber element 8 und dem Isolierstoffgehäuse 3, seihe Fig. 1 ). Jedes Schieberelement 8 lässt sich in eine Offenstellung verschie- ben Fig. 3a, in welcher das Isolierstoffgehäuse 3 an der Sammelschiene 7 anbringbar ist, bzw. in welcher die Sammelschiene 7 in das Anschlussgehäuse einlegbar ist. und in eine Geschlossenstellung (Fig. 3b), in welcher die Sammelschiene 7 rundum eingefasst ist. Dabei wird die eingelegte Sammelschiene 7 vom Sammelschienen- Federanschluss 6 kontaktiert (Fig. 1 , 2). Der Sammelschienen-Federanschluss 6 und der Leiteranschluss 4 sind leitend miteinander verbunden, beispielsweise über eine nicht in jedem Detail erkennbare Stromschienenanordnung 20 (Fig. 4), wobei derart eine Durchgangsverbindung geschaffen wird, wobei vorzugsweise - aber nicht zwingend - in diese leitende Verbindung ein elektrisches oder elektronisches Bauelement, insbesondere eine Sicherung 9 oder eine Diode, integriert ist. The busbar spring connection 6 is in each case arranged in an actuating element, preferably a slide element 8, which is guided movably, in particular displaceably, on the insulating housing 3 (see also FIG. 4b). In this way, the busbar is advantageously covered, in particular finger-safe covered. The slider element 8 is here advantageously guided displaceably perpendicular to the mounting direction on the insulating housing 3 (for example, by means of a groove / spring arrangement 19 between the slide element 8 and the insulating material 3, see Fig. 1). Each slide element 8 can be moved into an open position in FIG. 3 a, in which the insulating housing 3 can be attached to the busbar 7, or in which the busbar 7 can be inserted into the connection housing. and in a closed position (FIG. 3b), in which the busbar 7 is surrounded all around. The inserted busbar 7 is contacted by the busbar spring connection 6 (FIGS. 1, 2). The bus bar spring connection 6 and the conductor connection 4 are conductively connected to one another, for example via a conductor rail arrangement 20 (FIG. 4) which can not be seen in every detail, whereby a through connection is created, wherein preferably - but not necessarily - an electrical connection is made in this conductive connection or electronic component, in particular a fuse 9 or a diode is integrated.
Das Bauelement, insbesondere die Sicherung 9, ist auswechselbar und dazu an einem Halter, insbesondere einem Sicherungshalter 10 gehalten, der in eine korrespondierende Öffnung 1 1 des Isolierstoffgehäuses 3 einschiebbar ist (Fig. 3b). Fig. 3 zeigt die Wechselstellung, in welcher die Sicherung 9 herausnehmbar ist und Fig. 4 die Kontaktstellung, in welcher die Sicherung 9 einen Teil der leitenden Verbindung zwischen dem Sammelschienen-Federanschluss 6 und dem Leiteranschluss 4 ausbildet. The component, in particular the fuse 9, is interchangeable and held to a holder, in particular a fuse holder 10, which is insertable into a corresponding opening 1 1 of the insulating housing 3 (Fig. 3b). Fig. 3 shows the change position in which the fuse 9 is removable and Fig. 4, the contact position in which the fuse 9 forms part of the conductive connection between the busbar spring terminal 6 and the conductor terminal 4.
Der Schieber 8 ist derart ausgebildet, dass er lediglich aus seiner eingeschobenen Stellung herausgezogen werden kann, wenn der Halter in eine von zwei vorgegebe- ne Stellungen bewegt worden ist, d.h. hier in der Öffnung 1 1 nach oben bzw. herausgezogen worden ist. Dies wird hier dadurch erreicht, dass an dem Schieber 8 eine nach oben (in Z-Richtung) bzw. senkrecht zur Schieberichtung einseitig offene Ausnehmung 23 ausgebildet ist, in welcher der Sicherungshalter 10 von oben mit einem Vorsprung 24 in seinem eingeschobenen bzw. heruntergedrückten Zustand eingreift (siehe Fig. 4a und c). Durch eine Anschrägung 25 am Vorsprung 24 ist der Schieber 8 aber trotz eingeschobenem Halter einschiebbar in die Stellung der Fig. 4c. Der Vorsprung bildet damit eine Art Rasthaken am Schieber 8 aus, der am eingeschobenen Halter 10 verrrastbar ist. The slider 8 is designed such that it can only be pulled out of its pushed-in position when the holder has been moved into one of two predetermined positions, ie has been pulled up or pulled out here in the opening 11. This is achieved here by the fact that on the slide 8 a upwardly (in the Z direction) or perpendicular to the sliding direction open recess 23 is formed, in which the fuse holder 10 from above with a projection 24 in its pushed or depressed state engages (see Fig. 4a and c). By a bevel 25 on the projection 24 of the slide 8 but despite inserted retainer can be inserted into the position of FIG. 4c. The projection thus forms a kind of latching hook on the slide 8, which can be latched on the retracted holder 10.
Derart werden Anschlussscheiben bzw. Anschluss-Reihenklemmen 2 gebildet, die es in einfacher Weise ermöglichen, anzuschließende Leiter sicher leitend über eine wechselbare Sicherung 9 mit der Sammelschiene 7 zu verbinden. In this way, connection disks or connection terminal blocks 2 are formed, which make it possible in a simple manner to connect conductors to be connected safely conductively via a replaceable fuse 9 to the busbar 7.
An einer weiteren - im Vergleich zu den ersten sechs Anschluss-Reihenklemmen 2 in Anreihrichtung breiteren Anschlussscheibe 12 der Fig. 1 , 2 sowie 5 und 6 ist ein Bolzenabschnitt 13, der beispielsweise auf die Sammelschiene aufgesetzt ist und mit dieser leitend verbunden ist, ausgebildet. An diesen Bolzenabschnitt 13 kann mit Hil- fe eines Kabelschuhs 14 ein (beispielsweise abgehender) Leiter größeren Durchmessers angeschlossen werden. An der Anschlussscheibe 12 ist eine Ausnehmung 22 zur Aufnahme der Sammelschiene 7 vorgesehen, in welcher die Sammelschiene einliegt und in welcher der Bolzenabschnitt 13 von dem Kabelschuh 14 kontaktiert wird. Die Anschlussscheibe 12 weist eine Abdeckung 15 auf, welche hier klappbar an einem Grundgehäuse 16 angeordnet ist und welche dazu dient, den Kabelschuh 14 und den Bolzenabschnitt 13 isolierend abzudecken. At a further - in comparison to the first six connection terminal blocks 2 in the direction of width wider connection plate 12 of Fig. 1, 2 and 5 and 6, a bolt portion 13 which is for example placed on the busbar and is conductively connected, formed. A larger diameter conductor (for example outgoing) can be connected to this bolt section 13 with the aid of a cable lug 14. On the connection plate 12, a recess 22 for receiving the busbar 7 is provided, in which the busbar rests and in which the bolt portion 13 is contacted by the cable lug 14. The connection plate 12 has a cover 15, which is arranged here foldable on a base housing 16 and which serves to cover the cable lug 14 and the bolt portion 13 insulating.
An dieser Anschlussscheibe 12 können ferner einer oder mehrere weitere Anschlüsse 21 (beispielsweise vier Anschlüsse) in einer der Schmalseiten, vorzugsweise an der vom Kabelschuh 14 abgewandten Seite der Anschlussscheibe 12, vorgesehen sein, die beispielsweise als Prüfabgriff oder dgl. vielseitig nutzbar sind. Furthermore, one or more further connections 21 (for example four connections) in one of the narrow sides, preferably on the side of the connection plate 12 facing away from the cable lug 14, can be provided on this connection plate 12, which can be used in many ways, for example as a test tap or the like.
Zu erwähnen ist noch, dass die Anschlussscheiben 12 sowie die Anschluss- Reihenklemmen 2 jeweils mit Befestigungsfüßen, beispielswiese Rastfüssen (hier nicht dargestellt) versehen sein können, um die Gehäuse auf einer Tragschiene 17 befestigen zu können (Fig. 1 , 2, 6, 7). Bezugszeichen It should also be mentioned that the connection plates 12 and the connection terminal blocks 2 can each be provided with fastening feet, for example snap-in feet (not shown here), in order to fix the housings on a mounting rail 17 (FIGS. 1, 2, 6, 7) ). reference numeral
