Definitions

  • the invention relates to a terminal block with a housing, comprising a plurality of spaced apart in the longitudinal direction of the housing contacting openings.
  • terminal blocks are used to detachably connect wires, wires or general electrical lines.
  • a plurality of contacting openings are provided in the housing of the terminal block, in which the lines for connection can be inserted.
  • the housing is not substantially wider than one of the contacting openings so that they are spaced apart in a longitudinal direction. More specifically, the contacting apertures may be connected to their or their neighbors with an imaginary line running in a plane, the imaginary line being longitudinal.
  • each contacting opening It is known in the region of each contacting opening to form a receptacle for a marking plate assigned to the respective contacting openings.
  • the marker plate can be labeled with numbers, letters and / or symbols to describe the respective contact opening in more detail. These marking labels are designed in particular clampable in the recording and available in already labeled versions or individually printable blank versions.
  • terminal blocks have the disadvantage that they are designed for manual attachment of the marker plates.
  • machine marking options in particular by means of a robot, are provided for the terminal blocks.
  • attaching labels can be implemented in this way only with great effort.
  • the invention is therefore based on the object of specifying a terminal block whose contacting openings are more easily markable by means of a robot.
  • a terminal block of the type mentioned that at least the two outer longitudinal contacting openings is assigned from the respective contacting opening outwardly extending, arranged on an extended portion of the housing marking surface.
  • the invention is based on the consideration of providing a marking area on the housing of the terminal block, which can preferably be marked by laser engraving by means of a laser provided on a robot.
  • the housing is extended in a region immediately adjacent to the outer contacting openings in the longitudinal direction, in order to form a sufficiently large marking surface. Since these extended sections in principle serve no further purpose than to provide a marking surface, they are not already provided in conventional terminal blocks for reasons of economical use of materials.
  • a preferred embodiment provides that at least one of the extended sections connects continuously to the surface in which the contacting opening is located.
  • the contacting opening and its associated marking surface are then in a plane. It is particularly advantageous that such an extension can be realized structurally particularly simple. During development, care was also taken to ensure that the surfaces to be labeled can be reached by the laser in order to prevent additional or time-consuming pivoting movements of the terminal block or the laser head.
  • the terminal block according to the invention alternatively or additionally, if at least one of the extended sections at an angular difference between -30 ° and + 30 ° preferably between -10 ° and + 10 °, adjoins the surface in which the contacting opening is located ,
  • the marking surfaces arranged on the extended section can therefore also be angled slightly with respect to the contacting opening, so that an edge is formed.
  • the advantage can be achieved that the marking surface is better visible in the assembled state of the terminal block as would be the case with a flat extension of the housing.
  • the housing is fastened to a support rail, which extends along an imaginary mounting rail plane, and that their marking surface with the mounting rail level each includes an inclination angle, the difference between the largest and the smallest of these inclination angle smaller than 45 °, preferably less than 30 °. It is therefore proposed that all marking surfaces, ie both those which are assigned to the outer contacting openings and those associated with further contacting openings, do not exceed a predetermined difference between the largest and the smallest angle of inclination with respect to the mounting rail plane.
  • a marking surface labeling tool of the robot, so in particular a laser, nor the terminal block itself must be pivoted to the Apply lettering.
  • a fixedly aligned laser may label not only marking surfaces perpendicular to its beam in such aligned marking surfaces, but also marking surfaces aligned within the described tilt angle difference.
  • the terminal block can be provided in the terminal block according to the invention, that on the housing at least one each associated with a contacting opening receptacle for a, in particular clampable, label is formed.
  • the terminal block can therefore also have at least one receptacle for a marking plate in addition to a marking surface. Such a terminal block can thus be used advantageously for both manual and automated assembly.
  • At least one marking surface labeled by laser engraving is formed on the housing, in particular on one or two side surfaces of the housing.
  • a marking surface can have, for example, a product name and / or an article number and / or a batch identifier as a label and thus serve to identify the terminal block.
  • the side surfaces of the housing in particular include those surfaces which are concealed in the assembled state by other terminal blocks or other, in particular arranged on a mounting rail components. Accordingly, the identification area is preferably provided for information that is required in the context of the assembly process, but for the ongoing operation of the terminal are only of minor interest.
  • the at least one identification area is labeled with a one-dimensional or two-dimensional bar code or a QR code.
  • a machine identification of the terminal block can be achieved in the context of an automated assembly process.
  • One-dimensional bar codes can for example, according to ISO / IEC15420, as an interleaved 2-of-5 code, as Code39, as Code 93 or as Code128.
  • Fig. 1 is a perspective view of a terminal 1 with a housing 2, comprising four contacting openings 3, 4, 5, 6, each of which a marking surface 7, 8, 9, 10 is assigned.
  • shape and contour of the terminal 1 is to be understood merely as an example, as well as modified terminal blocks are conceivable, which also allow laser marking.
  • Fig. 2 shows the in Fig. 1 shown terminal block 1, as well as a well-known from the prior art terminal 11, which also has four contacting openings 13, 14, 15, 16 on its housing 12. Each of these is assigned a marking plate 17, 18, wherein the marking plate associated with the contacting opening 16 is concealed.
  • the housing 2 of the terminal 1 in contrast to the housing 12 of the terminal 11 beyond the outer contacting openings 3, 6 each have an extended portion 20, 21, on which the marking surfaces 7, 10 are arranged.
  • the marking surfaces 7, 10 are thus in a plane with their associated contacting openings 2, 6.
  • the associated marking surface 9 In the contacting 5, the associated marking surface 9, however, at an angle of about 27 ° bent.
  • the housing 2 of the terminal block 1 on its side surface 22 on a marking surface 23 which is labeled with a QR code 24.
  • the side surface 22 is concealed in the juxtaposition of several terminal blocks 1, so that the QR code in particular contains information that is required for the assembly process of a cabinet or for the tracing of the terminal 1.
  • the housing 2 has in the region of the extended portion 20 a receptacle 25 for a marking plate, as used, for example, in the terminal 11.
  • the receptacle 25 is optional because the information required can be applied more easily to the marking surface 7.
  • Fig. 3 shows the outer contours of the terminal 1 in a side view.
  • an imaginary mounting rail plane 26 is shown, in which a terminal rail 1 receiving mounting rail is in the attached state.
  • the contacting surfaces 7, 8, 10 each include an inclination angle 27, 28, 29 with the carrier rail plane 26 or with planes parallel thereto.
  • the labeling surface 9 extends parallel to the mounting rail plane 26, the angle of inclination (not designated) is therefore 0 °. The difference between the largest inclination angle and this smallest inclination angle is therefore identical to the inclination angles 27, 28 and is presently about 27 °.
  • the arrows 30, 31, 32, 33 show the radiation direction of a laser, not shown, which is designed for laser engraving of the marking surfaces 7, 8, 9, 10.
  • this beam strikes along the direction of the arrow 32 and can thus directly produce, for example, a number on the marking surface.
  • the beam strikes at an angle which is more acute by the inclination angles 27, 28, labeling being still possible by means of a beam aligned in the direction of the arrows 30, 31, if necessary the inscription is then slightly distorted.
  • This also applies to the inscription surface 10, since there the angle between the inscription surface 10 and a laser beam in the direction of the arrow 33 is sharper, corresponding to the inclination angle 29.
  • the inscription would be on a surface 34 or an area 35 to install, but why the laser and / or the terminal 1 would have to be rotated.
  • the terminal 1 thus allows labeling differently inclined and arranged at different locations marking surfaces with a small number of rotations and / or displacements of the laser or the terminal.
