Definitions
- the invention relates to a busbar system according to the preamble of claim 1.
- busbar systems are well known and are used in particular to operate lights of various designs at selectable positions. Both in terms of their configuration and in terms of their installation location, the busbars are variable and dependent on manufacturing conditions, design requirements and, if the busbars are used as a design element in living spaces, the mechanical strength or the like.
- the busbar should be integrated into the corresponding furniture part at the factory with only little effort. On the other hand, there is a requirement to assemble different lights or loads with little effort and to connect them electrically to the power rail.
- busbars do not meet the aforementioned requirements to the desired extent, primarily because the busbars are relatively large in cross-section and are therefore often perceived as annoying, especially from a design point of view.
- the at least one contact element for example in the form of a current feeder.
- the cross-sectional dimensioning is relatively large, so that the busbar system as a whole no longer meets today's design requirements.
- this contact tape has proven itself. However, it rests on the surface of the corresponding furniture part and is therefore fully visible. In this respect, it is not suitable to the required extent for a specific purpose, namely as an integrated, i.e. largely invisible, functional part in a piece of furniture.
- a comparable, also 1-phase power rail is in the DE 298 02 645 thematized.
- the two conductors of which have a circular cross-section.
- a busbar system is known, with a plurality of profile rails arranged in a housing, into each of which 1-phase contacts of a contact element are inserted. Both the profile rail and the contact strips which are held in it and arranged at a distance from one another are made of an electrically conductive material.
- the invention is based on the object of further developing a busbar system of the generic type in such a way that it can be manufactured and assembled with little constructive and manufacturing effort and meets the design requirements after assembly.
- busbar Due to the structural design of the busbar, especially the spaced opposing contact strips, which are now convex in cross-section in the direction facing each other, a very small cross-sectional dimensioning of the busbar is possible, with the open
- the longitudinal slot of the profile rail, into which the contacts of the consumer are inserted, can be kept very narrow, so that the busbar as a whole can be integrated inconspicuously into a furniture part, preferably a furniture panel.
- the busbar system in addition to the busbar, also comprises a contact element, e.g. a feeder, in particular a power feeder, which can be connected to an on-site power grid or to a transformer that can be connected to the power grid, the latter when, as is preferred, the busbar system is operated with low voltage will.
- a contact element e.g. a feeder, in particular a power feeder, which can be connected to an on-site power grid or to a transformer that can be connected to the power grid, the latter when, as is preferred, the busbar system is operated with low voltage will.
- the contact element can also be designed as an adapter, for example as a current collector that is connected to a consumer such as a lamp or the like, or as a current transformer in the form of a linear, corner, T or cross connector with several, each resilient contacts in the sense of Invention having connecting parts which are inserted into the busbar at the front or along the length. This creates a wide range of design options by assembling several busbars.
- the spherical design of the contacts is to be understood in the broadest sense, both as a spherical segment in the sense of a dome and in two directions perpendicular to one another, that is, convexly shaped in the X and Y directions.
- the flat design of the contacts enables a particularly narrow busbar to be dimensioned, since the width of the slot into which the connection part is inserted with the contacts held on it can be very small.
- the new shape of the respective contact creates lead-in bevels, which facilitate the assembly of the contact element in every direction.
- the height of the U-shaped profile rail is smaller than the thickness of the furniture panel provided with a longitudinal groove, which in turn corresponds in depth to the height of the profile rail, so that the profile rail is flush with the surface with the adjacent surface of the furniture panel results.
- the longitudinal slot in particular in combination with the new contact element, can be kept very small, the distance between the two contact strips being smaller than the associated dimension of contact elements of the consumer, so that the Contact elements of the consumer securely, possibly frictionally engaged.
- the profile rail is preferably made of plastic, the cross-section of which is designed in such a way that on the one hand the contact strips are held in a form-fitting manner and on the other hand receiving chambers are provided in which latching projections of a power feeder and adapters engage.
- the profile rail which is U-shaped in function in cross-section, is present as an essentially flat structure prior to assembly, ie prior to insertion into a receptacle on the furniture side, for example said longitudinal groove, which has a film hinge in the area of an axis of symmetry, by which the two legs receiving the contact strips are pivoted to one another during assembly in such a way that the U-shape results.
- This type of design of the profile rail enables particularly simple production and simple introduction and fastening of the contact strips, which reduces the costs accordingly overall.
- the contact element can be designed differently, in each case having two contacts which are electrically separated from one another and are held on a connection part and each bear against one of the two contact strips.
- the power feeder can be provided with a receiver so that the connected consumer can be switched on or dimmed via a transmitter, for example a remote control or a smartphone. Furthermore, the power feeder can correspond as a sensor with a furniture door, in particular for the interior lighting of a piece of furniture when the door is opened.
- adapters in different design variants are also conceivable.
- an axial adapter which is part of a linear lamp and which extends with its contacts in the longitudinal direction of the linear lamp.
- the contacts of the adapter are arranged transversely to the longitudinal extension of the consumer so that it runs parallel to the busbar.
- the adapter can, for example, have a USB connection for supplying voltage to a connected functional part, such as smartphones, tablets, battery lamps or the like.
- a plurality of adapters can be connected to the busbar, the respective adapter being connected via a cable to a housing which is inserted adjacent to an opening made in a furniture base for a furniture lamp.
- the contacts of the respective adapter that rest on the contact strips of the busbar are also convex or dome-shaped in the longitudinal direction of the contact strips and transversely thereto, so that a spherical design results.
- the adapter can be held as a contact slide in the busbar, the contact slide being guided over a driver of a sliding door of a piece of furniture and a connecting line to the slide supplying a light attached to the sliding door with power.
- connecting rails can be used to accommodate the busbar according to the invention, so that longitudinal grooves to be introduced separately are not required.
- At least one magnet is positioned in the busbar, which is preferably in the longitudinal direction of the busbar is displaceable and which is in operative connection with a consumer, for example a lamp, when in use.
- the consumer has a correspondence element in the form of a magnetic metal part.
- the magnet is mounted in an undercut receiving groove in such a way that it is prevented from shifting in such a way that the, for example, connected lamp is securely held even when the busbar is aligned vertically. Additional fastening, e.g. by screwing, is not required. Nevertheless, the magnet can be moved into any desired position with appropriate manual effort, which of course has a clear advantage in terms of design options.
- a busbar 1 of a busbar system which has a profile rail 2 with an approximately U-shaped cross section, preferably made of plastic, with two opposing contact strips 3 held on the legs of the profile rail 2, which according to the invention in the mutually facing direction in cross section are convex, which is particularly evident in the Figure 2 is recognizable.

- connection part 11 ′ On the side facing away from the connection part 11 ′, the housing is closed by a cover 13. A form-fitting mounting of the adapter 10 and a power feeder 14 described below is achieved by the locking lugs of the connection part 11 ′, which engage in locking chambers 8 of the profile rail 2.
- this can be provided with a coding which corresponds to a coding of the current feeder 14 or the adapter 10 that is adapted to it.
- a current feeder 14 which can be inserted laterally into the busbar 1 is shown, which is connected via a cable 15 to a power source, preferably a transformer, and which also has two contacts 11 that are electrically separated from one another.

Description
Die Erfindung betrifft ein Stromschienensystem nach dem Oberbegriff des Anspruchs 1.The invention relates to a busbar system according to the preamble of
Derartige Stromschienensysteme sind hinlänglich bekannt und finden insbesondere Verwendung, um Leuchten unterschiedlichster Bauart an wählbaren Positionen zu betreiben. Sowohl hinsichtlich ihrer Konfiguration wie auch hinsichtlich ihres Montageortes sind die Stromschienen variabel und abhängig von fertigungstechnischen Rahmenbedingungen, Designanforderungen, und, wenn die Stromschienen als Gestaltungselement in Wohnräumen zum Einsatz kommen, der mechanischen Festigkeit oder dergleichen.Such busbar systems are well known and are used in particular to operate lights of various designs at selectable positions. Both in terms of their configuration and in terms of their installation location, the busbars are variable and dependent on manufacturing conditions, design requirements and, if the busbars are used as a design element in living spaces, the mechanical strength or the like.
Zunehmend wird die Installation von Leuchten oder anderen elektrischen Komponenten in Möbeln verlangt, wobei auch mehrere Leuchten über eine in einem Möbelteil integrierte Stromschiene betrieben werden sollen.The installation of lights or other electrical components in furniture is increasingly required, and several lights are to be operated via a power rail integrated in a piece of furniture.
Dabei soll die Stromschiene mit lediglich geringem Aufwand in das entsprechende Möbelteil werksseitig integriert werden. Andererseits besteht die Forderung unterschiedliche Leuchten bzw. Verbraucher mit geringem Aufwand zu montieren und mit der Stromschiene elektrisch zu verbinden.The busbar should be integrated into the corresponding furniture part at the factory with only little effort. On the other hand, there is a requirement to assemble different lights or loads with little effort and to connect them electrically to the power rail.
Allerdings entsprechen die bekannten Stromschienen nicht in dem gewünschten Umfang den vorgenannten Forderungen, vor allem, weil die Stromschienen im Querschnitt relativ groß bemessen sind und daher vielfach als störend empfunden werden, insbesondere unter gestalterischen Gesichtspunkten.However, the known busbars do not meet the aforementioned requirements to the desired extent, primarily because the busbars are relatively large in cross-section and are therefore often perceived as annoying, especially from a design point of view.
Dies betrifft gleichermaßen das mindestens eine Kontaktelement, beispielsweise in Form eines Stromeinspeisers. Auch hierbei ist aufgrund der Ausgestaltung insbesondere der beiden Kontakte die Querschnittsdimensionierung relativ groß, so dass das Stromschienensystem insgesamt den heutigen Designanforderung nicht mehr entspricht.This applies equally to the at least one contact element, for example in the form of a current feeder. Here too, due to the design of the two contacts in particular, the cross-sectional dimensioning is relatively large, so that the busbar system as a whole no longer meets today's design requirements.

Prinzipiell hat sich dieses Kontaktband bewährt. Jedoch liegt es auf der Oberfläche des entsprechenden Möbelteiles auf und ist daher vollflächig sichtbar. Insofern ist es für einen bestimmten Einsatzzweck, nämlich als integriertes, d.h. weitgehend unsichtbares Funktionsteil in einem Möbel, nicht im geforderten Maße geeignet.In principle, this contact tape has proven itself. However, it rests on the surface of the corresponding furniture part and is therefore fully visible. In this respect, it is not suitable to the required extent for a specific purpose, namely as an integrated, i.e. largely invisible, functional part in a piece of furniture.

Der Erfindung liegt die Aufgabe zugrunde, ein Stromschienensystem der gattungsgemäßen Art so weiterzuentwickeln, dass es mit geringem konstruktivem und fertigungstechnischem Aufwand herstell- und montierbar ist und den gestalterischen Anforderungen nach einer Montage gerecht wird.The invention is based on the object of further developing a busbar system of the generic type in such a way that it can be manufactured and assembled with little constructive and manufacturing effort and meets the design requirements after assembly.
Diese Aufgabe wird durch ein Stromschienensystem mit den Merkmalen des Anspruchs 1 gelöst.This object is achieved by a busbar system with the features of
Durch die konstruktive Ausbildung der Stromschiene, vor allem der sich abständig gegenüberliegenden Kontaktstreifen, die nunmehr im Querschnitt in die jeweils einander zugewandte Richtung konvex ausgebildet sind, ist eine sehr kleine Querschnittsdimensionierung der Stromschiene möglich, wobei der offene Längsschlitz der Profilschiene, in den die Kontakte des Verbrauchers eingesetzt werden, sehr schmal gehalten werden kann, so dass die Stromschiene insgesamt unauffällig in ein Möbelteil, vorzugsweise eine Möbelplatte, integriert werden kann.Due to the structural design of the busbar, especially the spaced opposing contact strips, which are now convex in cross-section in the direction facing each other, a very small cross-sectional dimensioning of the busbar is possible, with the open The longitudinal slot of the profile rail, into which the contacts of the consumer are inserted, can be kept very narrow, so that the busbar as a whole can be integrated inconspicuously into a furniture part, preferably a furniture panel.
Das Stromschienensystem gemäß der Gattung umfasst neben der Stromschiene auch ein Kontaktelement, z.B. einen Einspeiser, insbesondere einen Stromeinspeiser, der mit einem bauseitigen Stromnetz oder an einen mit dem Stromnetz verbindbaren Trafo anschließbar ist, letzteres dann, wenn, wie vorzugsweise, das Stromschienensystem mit Niederspannung betrieben wird.In addition to the busbar, the busbar system according to the category also comprises a contact element, e.g. a feeder, in particular a power feeder, which can be connected to an on-site power grid or to a transformer that can be connected to the power grid, the latter when, as is preferred, the busbar system is operated with low voltage will.
Das Kontaktelement kann überdies als Adapter ausgebildet sein, z.B. als Stromabnehmer, der mit einem Verbraucher, wie einer Leuchte oder dergleichen verbunden ist, oder als Stromübertrager in Form eines Linear, Eck-, T- oder Kreuzverbinders mit mehreren, jeweils federnde Kontakte im Sinne der Erfindung aufweisenden Anschlussteilen, die stirn- oder längsseitig in die Stromschiene eingesteckt sind. Dies schafft vielfältige Gestaltungsmöglichkeiten durch Zusammenbau mehrerer Stromschienen.The contact element can also be designed as an adapter, for example as a current collector that is connected to a consumer such as a lamp or the like, or as a current transformer in the form of a linear, corner, T or cross connector with several, each resilient contacts in the sense of Invention having connecting parts which are inserted into the busbar at the front or along the length. This creates a wide range of design options by assembling several busbars.
Aus der Ausbildung der Kontakte des Kontaktelementes, nach der Erfindung in die einander abgewandte Richtung sphärenförmig gewölbt, ergibt sich eine progressive Federkonstante, die besonders kleine Abmessungen der Kontakte erlaubt, insbesondere eine flache Bauform mit geringem Materialeinsatz.The formation of the contacts of the contact element, according to the invention, curved spherically in the opposite direction, results in a progressive spring constant which allows particularly small dimensions of the contacts, in particular a flat design with little use of material.
Die sphärenförmige Ausbildung der Kontakte ist im weitesten Sinn zu verstehen, sowohl als Kugelabschnitt im Sinn einer Kalotte wie auch in zwei senkrecht zueinander stehenden Richtungen, also in X- wie auch in Y-Richtung konvex geformt.The spherical design of the contacts is to be understood in the broadest sense, both as a spherical segment in the sense of a dome and in two directions perpendicular to one another, that is, convexly shaped in the X and Y directions.
Die flache Bauform der Kontakte ermöglicht die Dimensionierung einer besonders schmalen Stromschiene, da der Schlitz, in die das Anschlussteil mit den daran gehaltenen Kontakten eingesteckt ist, in seiner Breite sehr klein abgemessen sein kann.The flat design of the contacts enables a particularly narrow busbar to be dimensioned, since the width of the slot into which the connection part is inserted with the contacts held on it can be very small.
Überdies sind durch die neue Form des jeweiligen Kontaktes Einführschrägen gebildet, die die Montage des Kontaktelementes in jeder Richtung erleichtert.In addition, the new shape of the respective contact creates lead-in bevels, which facilitate the assembly of the contact element in every direction.
Die Höhe der vorzugsweise in montierter Stellung im Querschnitt U-förmigen Profilschiene ist nach einem weiteren Gedanken der Erfindung kleiner als die Dicke der mit einer Längsnut versehenen Möbelplatte, die wiederum in ihrer Tiefe der Höhe der Profilschiene entspricht, so dass sich ein flächenbündiger Abschluss der Profilschiene mit der benachbarten Oberfläche der Möbelplatte ergibt.According to a further concept of the invention, the height of the U-shaped profile rail, preferably in the assembled position, is smaller than the thickness of the furniture panel provided with a longitudinal groove, which in turn corresponds in depth to the height of the profile rail, so that the profile rail is flush with the surface with the adjacent surface of the furniture panel results.
Durch die konvexe Ausbildung der Kontaktstreifen kann der Längsschlitz, insbesondere in Kombination mit dem neuen Kontaktelement, sehr klein gehalten sein, wobei der Abstand zwischen den beiden Kontaktstreifen kleiner ist als das zugeordnete Abmaß von Kontaktelementen des Verbrauchers, so dass die Kontaktelemente des Verbrauchers sicher, gegebenenfalls reibschlüssig anliegen.Due to the convex design of the contact strips, the longitudinal slot, in particular in combination with the new contact element, can be kept very small, the distance between the two contact strips being smaller than the associated dimension of contact elements of the consumer, so that the Contact elements of the consumer securely, possibly frictionally engaged.
Bevorzugt besteht die Profilschiene aus Kunststoff, die im Querschnitt derart gestaltet ist, dass zum einen die Kontaktstreifen formschlüssig gehalten werden und zum anderen Aufnahmekammern vorgesehen sind, in die Rastvorsprünge eines Stromeinspeiser sowie von Adaptern rastend eingreifen.The profile rail is preferably made of plastic, the cross-section of which is designed in such a way that on the one hand the contact strips are held in a form-fitting manner and on the other hand receiving chambers are provided in which latching projections of a power feeder and adapters engage.
Nach einem weiteren Gedanken der Erfindung liegt die in Funktion im Querschnitt U-förmige Profilschiene vor einer Montage, d.h. vor einem Einsetzen in eine möbelseitige Aufnahme, beispielsweise die genannte Längsnut, als im Wesentlichen ebenes Gebilde vor, das im Bereich einer Symmetrieachse ein Filmscharnier aufweist, durch das die beiden, die Kontaktstreifen aufnehmenden Schenkel bei der Montage derart zueinander verschwenkt werden, dass sich die U-Form ergibt.According to a further concept of the invention, the profile rail, which is U-shaped in function in cross-section, is present as an essentially flat structure prior to assembly, ie prior to insertion into a receptacle on the furniture side, for example said longitudinal groove, which has a film hinge in the area of an axis of symmetry, by which the two legs receiving the contact strips are pivoted to one another during assembly in such a way that the U-shape results.
Diese Art der Ausbildung der Profilschiene ermöglicht eine besonders einfache Herstellung sowie ein einfaches Einbringen und Befestigen der Kontaktstreifen, wodurch sich die Kosten insgesamt entsprechend reduzieren.This type of design of the profile rail enables particularly simple production and simple introduction and fastening of the contact strips, which reduces the costs accordingly overall.
Das Kontaktelement kann unterschiedlich ausgebildet sein, wobei es in jedem Fall zwei elektrisch voneinander getrennte, an einem Anschlussteil gehaltene Kontakte aufweist, die an jeweils einem der beiden Kontaktstreifen anliegen.The contact element can be designed differently, in each case having two contacts which are electrically separated from one another and are held on a connection part and each bear against one of the two contact strips.
Der Stromeinspeiser kann mit einem Empfänger versehen sein, so dass über einen Sender, beispielsweise eine Fernbedienung oder ein Smartphone ein Einschalten oder Dimmen des angeschlossenen Verbrauchers möglich ist. Weiter kann der Stromeinspeiser als Sensor mit einer Möbeltür korrespondieren, insbesondere zur Innenbeleuchtung eines Möbels, wenn die Tür geöffnet wird.The power feeder can be provided with a receiver so that the connected consumer can be switched on or dimmed via a transmitter, for example a remote control or a smartphone. Furthermore, the power feeder can correspond as a sensor with a furniture door, in particular for the interior lighting of a piece of furniture when the door is opened.
Ebenso wie der Stromeinspeiser unterschiedlich konfiguriert sein kann, sind auch Adapter in verschiedenen Ausführungsvarianten denkbar. Beispielhaft sei verwiesen auf einen Axialadapter, der Bestandteil einer Linearleuchte ist und der sich mit seinen Kontakten in Längsrichtung der Linearleuchte erstreckt.Just as the power feeder can be configured differently, adapters in different design variants are also conceivable. As an example, reference is made to an axial adapter which is part of a linear lamp and which extends with its contacts in the longitudinal direction of the linear lamp.
Bei einer anderen Variante sind die Kontakte des Adapters quer zur Längserstreckung des Verbrauchers angeordnet, so dass dieser parallel zur Stromschiene verläuft.In another variant, the contacts of the adapter are arranged transversely to the longitudinal extension of the consumer so that it runs parallel to the busbar.
In Kombination mit einem an eine Leuchte angeschlossenen Adapter oder allein gestellt, kann der Adapter beispielsweise einen USB-Anschluss aufweisen zur Spannungsversorgung eines angeschlossenen Funktionsteiles, wie Smartphones, Tablets, Akku-Leuchten oder dergleichen.In combination with an adapter connected to a lamp or placed alone, the adapter can, for example, have a USB connection for supplying voltage to a connected functional part, such as smartphones, tablets, battery lamps or the like.
Weiter können eine Mehrzahl von Adaptern an die Stromschiene angeschlossen werden, wobei der jeweilige Adapter über ein Kabel mit einem Gehäuse verbunden ist, das, benachbart einer in einen Möbelboden eingebrachten Öffnung für eine Möbelleuchte vorgesehene sacklochartige Ausnehmung eingefügt ist.Furthermore, a plurality of adapters can be connected to the busbar, the respective adapter being connected via a cable to a housing which is inserted adjacent to an opening made in a furniture base for a furniture lamp.
Damit ist die Möglichkeit geschaffen, die Stromschiene mit angeschlossenen Adaptern vorzufertigen, so dass lediglich die Stromschiene an einen Stromeinspeiser angeschlossen und die Möbelleuchten installiert werden müssen.This creates the possibility of prefabricating the power rail with connected adapters, so that only the power rail has to be connected to a power feeder and the furniture lights have to be installed.
Die Kontakte des jeweiligen Adapters, die an den Kontaktstreifen der Stromschiene anliegen, sind in Längsrichtung der Kontaktstreifen und quer dazu gleichfalls konvex ausgebildet oder kalottenartig, so dass sich eine sphärenförmige Ausbildung ergibt.The contacts of the respective adapter that rest on the contact strips of the busbar are also convex or dome-shaped in the longitudinal direction of the contact strips and transversely thereto, so that a spherical design results.
Weiter kann der Adapter als Kontaktschlitten in der Stromschiene gehalten werden, wobei der Kontaktschlitten über einen Mitnehmer einer Schiebetür eines Möbels geführt wird und eine Verbindungsleitung zum Schlitten eine an Schiebetür befestigte Leuchte mit Strom versorgt.Furthermore, the adapter can be held as a contact slide in the busbar, the contact slide being guided over a driver of a sliding door of a piece of furniture and a connecting line to the slide supplying a light attached to the sliding door with power.
Insbesondere Rückwandelemente von Schrankmöbeln werden vielfach durch Verbindungsschienen miteinander verbunden. In diesem Fall kann eine solche Verbindungsschiene genutzt werden, um die erfindungsgemäße Stromschiene aufzunehmen, so dass separat einzubringende Längsnuten nicht erforderlich sind.In particular, rear wall elements of cabinet furniture are often connected to one another by connecting rails. In this case, such a connecting rail can be used to accommodate the busbar according to the invention, so that longitudinal grooves to be introduced separately are not required.
Gemäß einer anderen Ausbildung der Erfindung ist in der Stromschiene mindestens ein Magnet positioniert, der bevorzugt in Längsrichtung der Stromschiene verschiebbar ist und der bei Gebrauch mit einem Verbraucher, beispielsweise einer Leuchte, in Wirkverbindung steht. Hierzu weist der Verbraucher ein Korrespondenzelement in Form eines magnetischen Metallteiles auf.According to another embodiment of the invention, at least one magnet is positioned in the busbar, which is preferably in the longitudinal direction of the busbar is displaceable and which is in operative connection with a consumer, for example a lamp, when in use. For this purpose, the consumer has a correspondence element in the form of a magnetic metal part.
Der Magnet ist nach einem weiteren Gedanken in einer hinterschnittenen Aufnahmenut derart verschiebegehemmt gelagert, dass die bspw. angeschlossene Leuchte auch bei vertikaler Ausrichtung der Stromschiene sicher gehalten wird. Eine zusätzliche Befestigung z.B. durch Verschrauben ist nicht erforderlich. Trotzdem kann bei entsprechendem manuellem Kraftaufwand der Magnet in jede beliebige Position verschoben werden, was naturgemäß einen deutlichen Vorteil hinsichtlich einer Gestaltungsmöglichkeit mit sich bringt.According to a further idea, the magnet is mounted in an undercut receiving groove in such a way that it is prevented from shifting in such a way that the, for example, connected lamp is securely held even when the busbar is aligned vertically. Additional fastening, e.g. by screwing, is not required. Nevertheless, the magnet can be moved into any desired position with appropriate manual effort, which of course has a clear advantage in terms of design options.
Weitere vorteilhafte Ausbildungen der Erfindung sind in den Unteransprüchen gekennzeichnet.Further advantageous developments of the invention are characterized in the subclaims.
