Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a rotary switching device with cylinder lock for a switching device and a control cabinet with a rotary switching device with cylinder lock.
  • control cabinets are equipped with switching devices. These are in particular switching devices with manual drives, which are used for switching on and off of the cabinet.
  • Switch cabinets are z. B. used to control connected machines.
  • the machine can be switched on and / or off accordingly.
  • the machine is shut down via the manual rotary drive on the control cabinet. Only when the machine is shut down and preferably without power can the maintenance be carried out.
  • a shut-off of the rotary switching device and simultaneously the switching device is effected in known rotary switching devices with an additional lock device.
  • a disadvantage of known solutions of the rotary switching devices is that separate lock devices, for. B. padlocks, are necessary, which must be attached to the rotary switching device to shut off.
  • known lock devices complex design changes must be carried out to provide a corresponding blocking option for the rotary switch device available.
  • Safety cutouts are known, each having an actuator and a Have closing device, which are arranged on a housing of the safety cut-out.
  • the locking device is designed such that when locking the locking device, a spring force must be overcome in order to move a locking element for blocking the actuating element. This has the disadvantage that the locking device is not user-friendly and exposed to increased wear.
  • Object of the present invention to provide in a cost effective and simple way a blocking option for the rotary switching device.
  • a rotary switching device according to the invention is characterized in that in the housing a locking device for locking the locking device in a latching locking position, preferably in AUS, is arranged.
  • a rotary switching device is in particular formed with a rotatable handle, wherein the two positions correspond to switching on and off of the control cabinet or an associated machine.
  • a rotary switching device can have a latching device, as is known in principle. It serves for tactile tactile definition of the two positions and locks the handle in at least one of these two positions. This locking takes place in reversible Way, so that by overcoming the corresponding latching force of the handle in a manual manner, the locked position can leave again.
  • the latching device upon rotation of the handle and after reaching at least one of the two positions, the latching device will lock in the latching position and accordingly hold the handle in the first or second position. In order for the handle to be able to leave this particular position again, the latching force must be overcome and, accordingly, further rotation of the handle must take place. If the handle reaches the correspondingly opposite position, latching can take place there as well.
  • An essential part of the present invention is that the locking device is designed with a built-in manual drive cylinder lock.
  • the locking device is arranged in the housing of the manual drives, so that it is a permanent part of the rotary switching device. So if the maintenance request is available for a control cabinet or a connected machine, the manual drive is moved to the appropriate position for the Ausposition. Now no separate lock must be present, but rather brought exclusively the handle of the manual drive in the locked position and locked by the cylinder lock. This locking is done by the use of the cylinder lock and is in functional union with the same at least partially visible.
  • the rotary switching device thus has the locking device in it.
  • a switching of an electrical connection is to be understood in particular as switching on or off.
  • a quantitative switching between a plurality of three or more positions in the context of the present invention is conceivable. This can be different electrical connections are connected or disconnected.
  • the handle is manually movable between at least two positions, in particular rotatable. This leads to a switch-on or switch-off or to the already described quantitative switching.
  • the locking device between a locking position and a Entrastposition is movable, which correlates accordingly with the first and the second position of the handle.
  • the locking device is preferably equipped with a locking element, so that for the locking device also a locking position and a release position can be defined. These three positions correlate with each other, so that the respective position of the handle can be locked via the locking position, while the locking device, the latched locking position of the locking device can be locked.
  • the locking device thus acts on the locking device such that the locking device must maintain the locked position locked, even if the handle is to be moved. Then, although the latching force would possibly be exceeded, but a blocking force is applied to the locking device by the locking device, which is designed to be significantly larger than the latching force.
  • the blocking device is designed as a built-in lock, in particular as a cylinder lock.
  • a cylindrical receptacle may be provided in the housing of the rotary switching device, in which the cylinder lock can be installed or inserted.
  • a built-in lock in particular in the form of a cylinder lock, it is preferably a standard component, which accordingly cost and with high reliability can be used.
  • such a lock can be very easy to use.
  • a mechanical key with a lock bit to allow the locking device to close.
  • a locking key of the locking device is removable only in the locked position of the locking device.
  • the blocking device can have a blocking position and a release position. In the release position, the manual drive can be moved substantially freely. The locking device is in the locked position, the locking device is locked in the locked position and thus the manual drive and thus prevents movement of the handle.
  • This embodiment ensures that the locking key is always present for the desired use of the locking device.
  • the key is fixed to the locking device and can not be removed because the locking device is in the release position.
  • the manual drive is rotated to the corresponding position and the locking device locks the handle in this position by the detent position.
  • the key which is arranged so to speak captive and not removable in the release position of the locking device, can now be rotated and thus bring the locking device in the locked position. Only in this position, the locking key is removable and z. B. removable from the fitter of the rotary switch device. Due to the captive security, the key is therefore always on site and can ensure the appropriate safety function of the shut-off possibility of the rotary switching device.
  • the key in the locked position the locking device can be deducted as well as in the release position of the locking device.
  • the locking device on the handle for at least one position has a locking groove, which is aligned in particular substantially radially relative to the axis of rotation of the handle.
  • a design of the latching device with latching groove and preferably also with a latching element which engages in the latching groove is a particularly inexpensive and simple embodiment.
  • locking grooves, z. B. by machining are made particularly simple and inexpensive. The radial extent or substantially radial extent is related to the axis of rotation of the handle and leads to a particularly simple and above all compact correlation with the locking device. In the locking groove z. B.
  • inlet slopes or chamfers be provided so that the engagement or unlatching of the locking device can be easily defined.
  • the corresponding detent force and thus the necessary force can be adjusted for unlocking the locking device by the correlation with such inlet slopes or chamfers in a defined manner.
  • the locking grooves correlate with the corresponding positions of the handle and can accordingly define and lock them by their correlation. In particular, in each case at least one locking groove is provided for all defined positions of the handle.
  • the locking device has at least one spring device and at least one latching element, wherein the spring device acts on the latching element in the direction of a latching position with a spring force.
  • the spring device can, for. B. be a coil spring, which is formed separately from the locking element.
  • spring device and locking element are also integral, z. B. integral, educable.
  • the spring force may be a compressive force and / or a Traction or a combination of such forces.
  • rotational springs which exert a torsional force on the latching element, are conceivable within the meaning of the present invention. This can be achieved by the spring device and the corresponding spring force and by the corresponding geometry of the locking element and z. B. a corresponding detent groove explicitly the resulting locking force for locking in the detent position can be adjusted.
  • the locking device has at least one locking element which is movably mounted between a locking position and a release position.
  • the locking device is accordingly z. B. provided with an internal latch or an internal locking plate, which is mounted rotatably and / or translationally movable. The movement takes place at least between the two defined positions, namely the blocking position and the release position. These two positions, namely the locking position and the release position, are correlated with the corresponding position of the handle.
  • the blocking element z. B. in the locked position a stop for the locking element and locks it accordingly in the latching detent position.
  • the locking element may have individual locking lugs or locking lips or locking portions, which provide the corresponding blocking effect and the corresponding release effect.
  • the locking element engages in the locking device in the locked position, in particular forms a stop for the locking element against movement from the detent position.
  • An intervention in the locking device is in particular a suppression of compression of the spring device.
  • an intervention between a locking element and a separately formed spring device can take place.
  • the handle has a switch disc, which partially has the latching device.
  • the latching device is therefore designed in particular in several parts, wherein parts of the latching device are mounted or arranged on the housing and other parts of the latching device on the handle.
  • the latching device has latching grooves on the turntable or on the handle and corresponding latching means in the housing. A kinematic reversal of the individual functions is conceivable within the meaning of the present invention.
  • a switch disc makes it possible to subsequently provide a functionality according to the invention in a rotary switching device.
  • standard rotary actuators can be used, which can be equipped by the switch disc with the functionality of the invention. This makes it possible, so to speak, to provide a rotary switching device with and without inventive functionality in a modular manner. In this modular way reduced costs for the production and sale can follow.
  • the axis of rotation of a key in the locking device is formed parallel or substantially parallel to the axis of rotation of the handle.
  • a particularly simple and above all intuitive operation is possible.
  • the clarity of the entire rotary switching device is improved in this way.
  • the manual rotation of the handle is done by the same or one parallel axis of rotation, such as the rotation of the key for the locking device. Accordingly, it becomes even easier and thus possible with higher security locking the rotary switching device.
