Description

Die vorliegende Erfindung geht von einer gemäß Oberbegriff des Hauptanspruches konzipierten elektrischen Anschlussordnung für Leuchten aus.The present invention is based on a designed according to the preamble of the main claim electrical connection order for lights.

Derartige elektrische Anschlussanordnungen sind der Regel einerseits dafür vorgesehen, angeschlossene elektrische Leuchten mit der zum Betrieb notwendigen Energie zu versorgen. Siehe z.B. DE2741798 oder DE202012007143U . Andererseits sind derartige elektrischeSuch electrical connection arrangements are the rule on the one hand provided to supply connected electrical lights with the necessary energy for operation. See eg DE2741798 or DE202012007143U , On the other hand, such electrical

Anschlussanordnungen auch dafür vorgesehen, den angeschlossenen Leuchten die zur bedarfsgerechten Steuerung notwendigen Informationen (Steuerdaten) zuzuführen. Aus dem Stand der Technik sind zum Beispiel elektrische Anschlussanordnungen für Leuchten bekannt, die nach dem DMX-Standard arbeiten, siehe z.B. GB2512149 . Bei diesem Standard ist es zum bedarfsgerechten Betrieb der Leuchten notwendig, die Leuchten nicht nur an die Energieversorgung, sondern auch an eine mehrpolige (zumindest dreipolige) Datenleitung anzuschließen. Die bislang aus dem Stand der Technik dazu geeigneten elektrischen Anschlussanordnungen sind aufwendig und teuer, weil zum bedarfsgerechten Betrieb zwei mehrpolige (zumindest dreipolige) Datenleitungen als Eingangs- und Ausgangsleitung für die Verbindung der Leuchten erforderlich sind. Sowohl für die Eingangs- als auch die Ausgangsleitung ist eine gesonderte Kabelverschraubung an den Leuchten vorzusehen.Connection arrangements also provided to supply the connected lights necessary for the needs-based control information (control data). From the state of the art, for example, electrical connection arrangements for luminaires are known which operate according to the DMX standard, see, for example GB2512149 , With this standard it is necessary for the needs-based operation of the luminaires to connect the luminaires not only to the power supply, but also to a multi-pole (at least three-pole) data line. The electrical connection arrangements which have hitherto been suitable for this purpose from the prior art are complicated and expensive because two multi-pole (at least three-pole) data lines are required as input and output line for the connection of the luminaires for demand-driven operation. A separate cable gland must be provided on the luminaires for both the input and output cables.

Ausgehend von solchen elektrischen Anschlussanordnungen für, nach dem DMX Standard arbeitenden Leuchten liegt der vorliegenden Erfindung die Aufgabe zugrunde, eine elektrische Anschlussanordnung zu schaffen, welche bei hoher Funktionszuverlässigkeit eine besonders kostengünstige und einfache Ausgestaltung aufweist.Based on such electrical connection arrangements for working according to the DMX standard lights, the present invention seeks to provide an electrical connection assembly, which has a high cost reliability and a particularly cost-effective and simple design.

Erfindungsgemäß wird diese Aufgabe durch die im Hauptanspruch angegebenen Merkmale gelöst.According to the invention this object is achieved by the features specified in the main claim.

Bei einer solchen Ausgestaltung ist besonders vorteilhaft, dass zur Realisierung einer solchen elektrischen Anschlussanordnung Standardbauteile eingesetzt werden können, die kostengünstig auf dem Markt erhältlich sind, sowie eine besonders komfortable Handhabung ermöglichen.In such a configuration is particularly advantageous that standard components can be used for the realization of such an electrical connection arrangement, which are available on the market at low cost, and allow a particularly comfortable handling.

Weitere vorteilhafte Ausgestaltungen des erfindungsgemäßen Gegenstandes sind in den Unteransprüchen angegeben. Anhand eines Ausführungsbeispieles sei die Erfindung im Prinzip näher erläutert. Dabei zeigen:

Further advantageous embodiments of the subject invention are specified in the subclaims. Reference to an exemplary embodiment, the invention will be explained in more detail in principle. Showing:
Fig. 1:
in principle, a circuit diagram of an electrical connection arrangement according to the invention.

Wie aus der Zeichnung hervorgeht, weist eine solche elektrische Anschlussanordnung einen leuchtenseitig angebrachten, fünfpolig ausgeführten Steckverbinder 1 auf, an den ein, mehrere Datenleitungen aufweisendes Leitungssystem 2 anschließbar ist, welches einerseits mit einer Steuereinheit 3 und andererseits mit zumindest einer Leuchte L1, Ln in Verbindung steht. Die aus den beiden Leuchten L1, Ln herausgeführten Steckverbinder 1 sind jeweils fünfpolig ausgeführt und mit einem T-Verbinder koppelbar, dessen Leuchtenverbindungsstück 4L fünfpolig ausgeführt ist und dessen Eingangsstück 4E und dessen Ausgangsstück 4A jeweils dreipolig ausgeführt sind. Die erste Datenleitung COM des Leitungssystems 2 ist ausgehend vom Eingangsstück 4E bis zum Ausgangsstück 4A durchverdrahtet und über eine Abzweigung über das Leuchtenverbindungsstück 4L und den Steckverbinder 1 bis in die zugehörige Leuchte L1, Ln hineingeführt. Die verschiedenen Leitungsstücke des Leitungssystems 2 weisen jeweils zur Herstellung der notwendigen datentechnischen Verbindungen drei Adern beziehungsweise Stränge auf. Beim vorliegenden Ausführungsbeispiel sind - wie bereits erwähnt - zwei Leuchten L1, Ln dargestellt, oftmals stehen jedoch über eine solche elektrische Anschlussanordnung deutlich mehr als zwei Leuchten L1, Ln datentechnisch miteinander in Verbindung. Wie des Weiteren aus Figur 1 hervorgeht, ist aus jeder der beiden Leuchten L1, Ln zusätzlich ein zur Anschlussanordnung gehöriger Steckanschluss 5 herausgeführt. Dieser Steckanschluss 5 ist dazu vorgesehen, die zugehörige Leuchte L1, Ln mit der zum Betrieb notwendigen elektrischen Energie zu versorgen. Zu diesem Zweck weist der Steckanschluss 5 die Belegungsmöglichkeit mit den drei Leitern N, L und PE auf.As can be seen from the drawing, such an electrical connection arrangement has a light-side mounted, five-pole connector 1, to which a plurality of data lines having line system 2 can be connected, on the one hand with a control unit 3 and on the other hand with at least one lamp L1, Ln in combination stands. The led out of the two lights L1, Ln connector 1 are each made five-pole and can be coupled with a T-connector, the light connector 4L is five-pole and the input piece 4E and the output piece 4A are each designed three poles. The first data line COM of the line system 2 is through-wired, starting from the input piece 4E to the output piece 4A and guided via a branch via the light connector 4L and the connector 1 into the associated lamp L1, Ln. The various line sections of the line system 2 each have three wires or strands for the preparation of the necessary data connections. In the present embodiment, as already mentioned, two lights L1, Ln are shown, but often more than two lights L1, Ln are in terms of data communication with one another via such an electrical connection arrangement. As further out FIG. 1 shows, from each of the two lights L1, Ln additionally connected to the terminal assembly plug connection 5 led out. This plug connection 5 is provided to the associated lamp L1, Ln with the necessary electrical energy for operation supply. For this purpose, the plug connection 5 has the occupation possibility with the three conductors N, L and PE.

Wie zudem aus der Figur 1 hervorgeht, sind an den Steckverbinder 1 leuchtenseitig jeweils neben der ersten Datenleitung COM eine zweite Datenleitung D- IN, eine dritte Datenleitung D+ IN, eine vierte Datenleitung D- OUT und eine fünfte Datenleitung D+ OUT angeschlossen. Das Leuchtenverbindungsstück 4L der beiden T-Verbinder 4 bietet jeweils neben der Anschlussmöglichkeit für die erste Datenleitung COM weitere Anschlussmöglichkeiten für eine zweite Datenleitung D-IN, eine dritte Datenleitung D+ IN, eine vierte Datenleitung D- OUT und eine fünfte Datenleitung D+ OUT. Das Eingangsstück 4E der beiden T-Verbinder 4 bietet jeweils neben der Anschlussmöglichkeit für die erste Datenleitung COM weitere Anschlussmöglichkeiten für eine zweite Datenleitung D- IN sowie eine dritte Datenleitung D+ IN für das Leitungssystem 2. Das Ausgangsstück 4A der beiden T-Verbinder 4 bieten jeweils neben der Anschlussmöglichkeit für die erste Datenleitung COM weitere Anschlussmöglichkeiten für eine vierte Datenleitung D- OUT und eine fünfte Datenleitung D+ OUT für das Leitungssystem 2.As well as from the FIG. 1 As can be seen, a second data line D-IN, a third data line D + IN, a fourth data line D-OUT and a fifth data line D + OUT are connected to the connector 1 on the lighting side in each case next to the first data line COM. The light connector 4L of the two T-connector 4 offers next to the possibility of connecting the first data line COM further connection options for a second data line D-IN, a third data line D + IN, a fourth data line D- OUT and a fifth data line D + OUT. The input piece 4E of the two T-connectors 4 offers, in addition to the connection possibility for the first data line COM, further connection possibilities for a second data line D-IN and a third data line D + IN for the line system 2. The output piece 4A of the two T-connectors 4 each provide in addition to the possibility of connecting the first data line COM, further connection possibilities for a fourth data line D-OUT and a fifth data line D + OUT for the line system 2.

Wie ebenfalls des Weiteren aus Figur 1 hervorgeht, wird beim Weiterverbinden von einer ersten Leuchte L1 zu einer weiteren Leuchte Ln durch das Leitungssystem 2 ein Wechsel vollzogen. Das bedeutet, die vom fünfpoligen Ausgangsstück 4A des T-Verbinders 4 der ersten Leuchte L1 ausgehende vierte Datenleitung D- OUT wird auf die Anschlussmöglichkeit der zweiten Datenleitung D- IN und die fünfte Datenleitung D+ OUT auf die Anschlussmöglichkeit der dritten Datenleitung D+ IN des fünfpoligen Eingangsstücks 4E des T-Verbinders 4 der weiteren Leuchte Ln gelegt. Beim Weiterverbinden mit weiteren - der Einfachheit halber nicht dargestellten - Leuchten wiederholt sich diese, einen Wechsel bewirkende Vorgehensweise entsprechend.As also out further FIG. 1 it is apparent that a further change from a first lamp L1 to another lamp Ln through the line system 2 is performed. That is, the output from the five-pin output piece 4A of the T-connector 4 of the first lamp L1 fourth data line D-OUT is on the possibility of connecting the second data line D-IN and the fifth data line D + OUT on the possibility of connecting the third data line D + IN of the five-pole input section 4E of the T-connector 4 of the other light Ln laid. When further connecting with other - not shown for simplicity - luminaires repeats this, a change-causing approach accordingly.

Durch das zwischen der Steuereinheit 3 und dem T-Verbinder 4 der ersten Leuchte L1 angeordnete erste Verbindungsstück des Leitungssystems 2 wird bewirkt, dass die zum Betrieb notwendigen Informationen beziehungsweise Steuerdaten mittels des fünfpoligen Steckverbinders 1 sowie über die erste Datenleitung COM, die zweite Datenleitung D- IN und die dritte Datenleitung D+ IN in die erste Leuchte L1 hineingeführt werden. Die zum Betrieb notwendigen Informationen beziehungsweise Steuerdaten werden mittels des fünfpoligen Steckverbinders 1 und des T-Verbinders 4 über die erste Datenleitung COM, die vierte Datenleitung D- OUT und die fünfte Datenleitung D+ OUT wieder aus der ersten Leuchte L1 herausgeführt. Ein zweites Verbindungsstück des Leitungssystems 2 ist vorgesehen, um eine Weiterverbindung mit der weiteren Leuchte Ln, und damit die Weiterleitung der Informationen beziehungsweise Steuerdaten an die weitere Leuchte Ln zu ermöglichen. Bei der Weiterverbindung wird durch einen Wechsel innerhalb des zweiten Verbindungsstücks des Leitungssystems 2 bewirkt, dass die vierte Datenleitung D-OUT und die fünfte Datenleitung D+ OUT beim T-Verbinder 4 der weiteren Leuchte Ln auf die Anschlussmöglichkeiten für die zweite Datenleitung D- IN und die dritte Datenleitung D+ IN gelegt werden. Wie bereits erwähnt, erfolgt bei der ersten Datenleitung COM kein Wechsel, weil diese durchverdrahtet ist.The first connection piece of the line system 2, which is arranged between the control unit 3 and the T-connector 4 of the first luminaire L1, causes the information or control data necessary for operation to be transmitted by means of the five-pin connector 1 and via the first data line COM, the second data line D-. IN and the third data line D + IN are led into the first lamp L1. The information necessary for the operation or Control data are led out of the first light L1 again by means of the five-pin connector 1 and the T-connector 4 via the first data line COM, the fourth data line D-OUT and the fifth data line D + OUT. A second connecting piece of the line system 2 is provided in order to enable a further connection to the further lamp Ln, and thus the forwarding of the information or control data to the further lamp Ln. In the onward connection is caused by a change within the second connector of the line system 2 that the fourth data line D-OUT and the fifth data line D + OUT at the T-connector 4 of the other light Ln on the connection possibilities for the second data line D-IN and the third data line D + IN be placed. As already mentioned, there is no change in the first data line COM because it is through-wired.
