Description

Support mechanisms for centralizations of I send.

Object of the invention

The present invention relates to a support that It has been specially designed for a group of mechanisms to command centralizations, such as switches, intercoms, alarms, etc.

The object of the invention is to provide a highly versatile mechanism support, which facilitates sensibly the assembly and disassembly of said mechanisms, both when installed on a flush-mounted box or on a surface socket and both in the installation itself mechanisms as in maintenance operations thereof.

Background of the invention

When making the different electrical installations in offices, stores, homes or similar, it is usual to group in a single embedding box or socket, a series of controls, such as switches for different independent lighting circuits, controls for the heating or air conditioning system control, intercoms, keyboards for enabling / disabling alarms, etc., elements that in the slang of this type of facilities are called "mechanisms".

Usually these mechanisms are fixed to the box recessed or to the surface socket by screwing, of so that they should be kept in hand during the  connection of their terminals and then must be fixed to the box or socket, which is a relatively complex maneuver and uncomfortable

Description of the invention

The support of mechanisms for centralizations of command that the invention proposes fully resolves satisfactory the aforementioned problem, facilitating sensibly the assembly / disassembly of the mentioned mechanisms during the installation and maintenance operations of the same.

To do this and more specifically the support that The invention proposes, whose number can be variable for each or socket depending on the number of mechanisms to be implanted in such a box or socket, is materialized in a piece, preferably injected into plastic, provided with a large window in which they remain integrated the mechanisms in question, with the special particularity that said piece incorporates in extreme areas grooved shaft coupling pins set on parallel edges of the mouth of the box or socket and between that said piece or support itself extends.

Preferably the existence of two ribbed pins on each end of the piece, substantially distanced from each other, placing a hitch pin, "U" configuration, whose middle branch, it is intended to also engage on said edge of the mouthpiece of the box or socket through a pair of fins that they emerge from it configuring a strangulated mouthpiece in the to be coupled by elastic deformation of one of said fins the cited support hitch pin, so that the middle branch of the same can swing freely in said coupling in case that the opposite end of the support is not coupled.

The hitch pin normally maintains the corrugated support pins coupled on the corresponding box shaft or socket while releasing said hitch pin, by deformation of one of the aforementioned fins operated with a screwdriver or other tool appropriate, brings with it that the ribbed pins can be decoupled from the shaft and that the support as a whole can swing on the opposite axis, so that the inside of the mechanisms it is visible to the operator, with such associated mechanisms mechanically to the box or socket in optimal conditions for Manipulate them.

They can be mounted on each support longitudinally a variable number of mechanisms, due to the different widths presented by these mechanisms depending on the specific type in question, as well as depending on the size of the box or socket, maintaining in any case the same constant of its tilting or folding character to facilitate manipulations on the connection terminals of said mechanisms.

Description of the drawings

To complement the description that is being performing and in order to help a better understanding of the characteristics of the invention, according to a preferred example of practical realization of it, is accompanied as part member of that description, a set of drawings where with illustrative and non-limiting nature, what has been represented next:

Figure 1. - Shows, according to a view in perspective, a surface socket intended for coupling of three mechanism supports for command centralizations made in accordance with the object of the present invention, in the that two mechanisms appear, one of which appears in partial opening situation.

Figure 2. - Shows a set similar to that of the previous figure, but in which the mechanisms are mounted on the front frame of a flush-mounted box.

Figure 3. - Shows an enlarged detail similar to that of figure 1 but in which it is observed with greater clarity the way of fixing the brackets to the socket, being this time one of them decoupled from the opposite edge to that of figure 1.

Preferred Embodiment of the Invention

In view of the figures outlined you can be seen as the support of mechanisms for centralizations of controls proposed by the invention can be integrated interchangeably both in surface sockets (1), intended to be fixed externally to a wall, such as a wall, for screwing through its bottom wall, as you can observe in figure 1, as well as in embedding boxes, specifically in the front frame (2) thereof.

In any case, the support of the invention will be it materializes in a piece (3) injected in plastic material, of rectangular contour, with a large window (4) intended to accommodate to a variable number of mechanisms, which as mentioned previously, it will depend on the needs of the installation and of the width of the same, piece (3) with a length according to the width of the socket (1) or front frame (2) of the box embed.

As can be seen in detail in the Figure 3, said piece (3) presents at each of its ends a pair of pins (5) prolongation of its front face, topped on grooved paths (6) of semicircular profile and concavity oriented backwards, settling between these pins corrugated (5) an intermediate pin (7) of hitch "U" configuration, whose middle branch is cylindrical.

The pins (5) are intended to be coupled to through its grooves (6) to a longitudinal axis (8-8 ') existing at each of the edges Longitudinal of the socket of the socket (1) or front frame (2) of the embedding box where appropriate, so that, as note especially in figure 3, the support (3) is fixed at its ends to the aforementioned axes (8) by coupling front of its grooves (6) and by simultaneous coupling from the middle branch (9) of the hitch pin (7) to a pair of fins (10) and (11) emerging from said edge of the mouth of the front frame of the box (2) or of the socket (1), partially interrupting the shaft (8) and setting a mouthpiece strangled aligned with it, in which to couple by elastic deformation of the internal fin (11) said branch intermediate (9) of the support hitch pin.

To decouple a support (3) by one of its ends, tilting it on the axis (8-8 ') which is coupled to its opposite end, you just have to act on the fin (11) with a screwdriver or similar, with that the support is released from the socket (1) or front frame (2) of the flush-mounted box, being able to release indistinctly by one or another of its ends, as can be seen in the figures, offering direct access to the connection terminals of the mechanisms, but maintaining these mechanisms, through own supports, conveniently associated with the socket (1), or in its case to the flush-mounted box.

Logically the structure described is complemented with a front cover, attachable and detachable under pressure, not represented in the drawings, which covers the hitch areas of the supports (3), maximizing the aesthetic appearance of the set.
