Die Anschlussklemme und der Abgriff können beispielsweise mit einzelnen Leitern verbunden werden, wobei die Leiter unter anderem abgezwickt und isoliert werden sollen. Der Terminal and the tap can be known per se products that are independent of each other. The grid of the terminal and the grid of the tap can be partially different. The terminal and the tap can be connected to individual conductors, for example, with the conductors to be split and isolated, among other things. Of the
Montageaufwand ist dadurch erheblich, viele Einzelkomponenten sind erforderlich und die gesamte Vorrichtung benötigt viel Platz in der Leuchte, vor allem in der Länge. Aus dem Stand der Technik ist beispielsweise die AT 13096 U1 bekannt, wobei die Vorrichtung einem Gehäuse-Vorderteil und einem Gehäuse-Hinterteil als Einheit aufweist, sowie elektrische Verbindungselemente, die zwischen der Kontaktierstellen im Gehäuse-Vorderteil und der Kontaktierstellen im Gehäuse- Hinterteil in der Einheit angeordnet sind und diese jeweils elektrisch verbinden, wobei die jeweiligen elektrischen Verbindungselemente einen vorhandenen Versatz zwischen den verbundenen Kontaktierstellen im Gehäuse-Vorderteil und Gehäuse-Hinterteil ausgleichen können. Nachteil ist, dass die Steckmöglichkeiten in der Vorrichtung beschränkt sind, es gibt nur eine Gruppe von Kontaktierstellen im Gehäuse-Vorderteil und eine weitere Gruppe von Kontaktierstellen im Assembly effort is considerable, many individual components are required and the entire device requires a lot of space in the lamp, especially in length.

Die Lösung der Aufgaben erfolgt erfindungsgemäß durch die in den unabhängigen Ansprüchen angegebenen Markmale. The invention has the object of developing a device of the type described above so that the contacting of electrical conductors and / or electrical contact elements is made even more flexible and the installation of the device in the lamp or in the electrical device is further simplified. The object is achieved according to the invention by the Markmale specified in the independent claims.

Ein wesentliches Merkmal der erfindungsgemäßen Vorrichtung ist, dass auf einer Seite der Vorrichtung eine Abstufung zwischen dem Gehäuse-Vorderteil und dem Gehäuse-Hinterteil ausgebildet ist, wobei Kontaktierstellen zur elektrischen Kontaktierung im Bereich der Abstufung vorgesehen sind. An essential feature of the device according to the invention is that on one side of the device, a gradation between the housing front part and the housing rear part is formed, wherein Kontaktierstellen are provided for electrical contacting in the range of gradation.
Dadurch ist eine Aussenkante bzw. eine Ebene des Gehäuse-Vorderteils versetzt angeordnet im Vergleich zu der Aussenkante bzw. zu der Ebene des Gehäuse- Hinterteils auf derselben Seite der Vorrichtung. Bevorzugt wird, dass die Kontaktierstellen im Gehäuse-Vorderteil angeordnet werden. Dadurch ist das Gehäuse-Hinterteil zumindest in einer Richtung schmäler als das Gehäuse-Vorderteil ausgebildet. As a result, an outer edge or a plane of the housing front part is offset relative to the outer edge or to the plane of the housing rear part on the same side of the device. It is preferred that the contact points are arranged in the front housing part. As a result, the housing rear part is formed at least in one direction narrower than the housing front part.
Vorteilhaft ist es, wenn die Abstufung zwischen dem Gehäuse-Vorderteil und dem Gehäuse-Hinterteil auf der Unterseite der Vorrichtung ausgebildet ist. It is advantageous if the gradation between the housing front part and the housing rear part is formed on the underside of the device.
Gemäß einer bevorzugten Ausführungsform der Vorrichtung kann ein Freiraum auf der Unterseite des Gehäuse-Hinterteils vorgesehen werden. Dadurch werden die Kontaktierstellen zu elektrischer Kontaktierung im Bereich der Abstufung gut zugänglich. Es vereinfacht die Montage und die Verdrahtung bzw. Verkabelung in der Leuchte oder im elektrischen Gerät, da ein Weiterschleifen zu weiteren elektrischen oder elektronischen Geräten, wie beispielsweise Vorschaltgeräte oder Konverter, unterhalb der Vorrichtung möglich wird. According to a preferred embodiment of the device, a clearance can be provided on the underside of the housing rear part. As a result, the contact points for electrical contacting in the range of gradation are easily accessible. It simplifies the installation and the wiring or wiring in the lamp or in the electrical device, as a further grinding to other electrical or electronic devices, such as ballasts or converters, below the device is possible.

Vorrichtung wird dadurch vereinfacht. Kollisionen einer weiteren zusätzlichen elektrischen Verbindung mit den Kontaktierstellen des Gehäuse-Hinterteils werden dadurch auch vermieden, da die erfindungsgemäßen Kontaktierstellen nicht auf der hinteren Stirnseite des Gehäuse-Hinterteils angeordnet sind. Device is simplified. Collisions of a further additional electrical connection with the contacting points of the housing rear part are thereby also avoided since the contacting points according to the invention are not arranged on the rear end side of the housing rear part.
Es ist von Vorteil, dass die elektrische Kontaktierung zu weiteren elektrischen oder elektronischen Geräten an den Kontaktierstellen im Bereich der Abstufung für starre oder flexible elektrische Leiter, male Pin-Stecker oder Steckverbinder vorgesehen ist. Es können an sich bekannte Kontaktierstellen im Bereich der Abstufung eingesetzt werden.

Gehäuse-Hinterteil als Steckverbindungen ausgebildet werden. Housing rear part are designed as connectors.
Es bringt den Vorteil, dass eine zusätzliche Einspeisung vorhanden wird. Für die elektrische Kontaktierung des Steckverbinders mit der Vorrichtung können vorzugsweise Stanzteile zum Einsatz kommen. Für eine Netzeinspeisung sind andere Voraussetzungen für eine elektrische Kontaktierung zu berücksichtigen. Es können die gleichen aber gegenläufigen Stanzteile im Steckverbinder und in der Kontaktierstelle für eine Kontaktierung eingesetzt werden. Dadurch ermöglicht es ein Anschluss für höhere Strömgänge und größere Querschnitte. It has the advantage that an additional feed is available. For electrical contacting of the connector with the device punched parts may preferably be used. For a mains supply, other requirements for electrical contacting must be taken into account. It can be used the same but opposite punched parts in the connector and in the Kontaktierstelle for a contact. This allows a connection for higher flows and larger cross sections.
Weiterhin können im Gehäuse-Hinterteil zwei Gruppen von Kontaktierstellen vorgesehen werden, jeweils als Abgriff bzw. Stecker. Der Abgriff bzw. Stecker, der gegebenenfalls ein an sich bekannter Stecker sein kann, kann beispielweise zum Weiterschleifen zu anderen Lichtbalken dienen. Furthermore, two groups of contacting points can be provided in the housing rear part, in each case as a tap or plug. The tap or plug, which may optionally be a known plug, can serve, for example, for further grinding to other light bars.
Zusätzlich kann ein Erdungskontakt an der Vorrichtung vorhanden sein und zumindest eine Kontaktierstelle kann für den Erdungskontakt vorgesehen sein. Bevorzugt ist, dass der Erdungskontakt als Spange auf der Vorrichtung In addition, a ground contact may be present on the device and at least one contact point may be provided for the ground contact. It is preferred that the ground contact as a clip on the device
ausgebildet wird und/oder dass der Erdungskontakt im montierten bzw. is formed and / or that the ground contact in mounted or
vorgespannten Zustand mit einem weiteren Bauteil wirksam sein kann. prestressed state can be effective with another component.
Diese Ausführungsmöglichkeit als Erdungsspange ist besonders vorteilhaft für eine Vorrichtung, die in einem Schienensystem eingesetzt wird, da die This embodiment as a grounding clip is particularly advantageous for a device that is used in a rail system, as the
Erdungsspange im Tunnel des Schienensystems gespannt werden kann. Earthing clamp in the tunnel of the rail system can be stretched.
Die erfindungsgemäße Vorrichtung kann beispielsweise als The inventive device can, for example, as
Leuchtenanschlussklemme verwendet werden, insbesondere für Einzelleuchten, die sich auch in einem Schienensystem befinden können. Durch ihre kleine bzw. niedrige Bauform in der Höhe und Breite, kann sie auch bei LED-Anwendungen eingesetzt werden. Die erfindungsgemäße Vorrichtung kann vorzugsweise eine schraubenlose Anschluss- oder Verbindungsklemme sein. Lamp terminal are used, especially for individual lights, which may also be located in a rail system. Due to its small or low design in height and width, it can also be used in LED applications.
