Description

Improved box for electrical elements.

The present Utility Model application consists as indicated in a "Box perfected for electrical elements ", whose new characteristics of construction conformation and design fulfill the mission for which specifically it has been designed with safety and effectiveness maximum.

More specifically, the invention relates to a new perfected design of a box to house elements electrical inside, whose purpose is to present a configuration and effective means such as to allow it be mounted in two different positions, that is, enjoy "reversibility", and at the same time simplify the system of assembly of certain components in the base of the box.

Currently they exist in the market, and therefore can be considered as a state of the art, a plurality of types of boxes for electrical elements, inside which gather a set of electrical elements such as switches cutting magneto-thermal, differential, which are mounted on them through the corresponding chassis arranged inside them, being basically the chassis metal strips, whose configuration allows in consistent with the rear face of said switches a mounting on said chassis as quickly as possible.

These boxes are usually prismatic lacking upper base, instead of which incorporate caps provided with openings for the exit of certain parts of switches and other items such as buttons and keys similar for their operation, and on whose walls weakened areas are planned and easily removable for the entry and exit of the conductors electrical with their covers or protective tubes.

Some of these boxes are divided internally in different compartments for the physical separation of different elements, such as the ICP switch with the PIA switches, and incorporate in some cases in the part front a second cover that covers the first cover and protects the set against the vertical fall of water moisture and actions not desired that can go against the integrity of the whole.

The main drawbacks of the boxes existing in the state of the art are, in many cases, the bad design of them, since they do not adapt conveniently to the environment, and the difficult assembly of the various chassis where the electrical components are housed at the base of the box, since they are fixed to the box by means of joints of screws, which oblige users, preferably electrical installers, to use tools, which entails high assembly times and also a risk of falls to different level of users when assembling the boxes to large heights

So the characteristics of the boxes more appreciated by users are their adaptability to environment (walls, walls, partitions and the like), which chassis attachable to it that accommodate the different elements are easily mountable in the boxes and without the use of tools, due to risk situations that may suffer the users, that the same one allows the exit and the entrance of conductors and covers of different diameters with the minimum Sensitive handling, reversibility of the box, and suppression of any function obtainable by screwing.

To achieve these functions, a perfected box for electrical elements that enables the same can be mounted in two different positions, in position towards up and down without distinction, so that compartment in which the box is divided may be arranged to the right or to the left of it according to just turn the box 180 degrees, which guarantees a easy assembly of the chassis at the base of the box thanks to the provision of manual click means, eliminating the use of screws and tools making assembly easy enormously, and that incorporates some means for guiding the conductors inside the box.

Other details and features will be put manifest in the course of the description that to It follows, in which reference is made to the drawings that This report is accompanied, in which it is shown by title illustrative but not limiting a practical realization of the invention.

In one of the preferred embodiments of what It is the object of the present invention, the box for elements electrical (10) recommended is formed by a prismatic body with a rectangular base and no upper base formed by a base (11) and four partitions or walls, two minor base partitions (25) and two major base (26), perpendicular to said base, incorporating the box (10) an intermediate partition (24) of equal configuration than smaller base partitions (25) arranged parallel to said partitions (25) that divides the interior volume of the box (10) in two compartments (35-36), in One arranges the PIA's support chassis (16) where two are attached  PIA switches and in the other compartment the ICP support chassis (38) where the ICP switch is attached, both chassis mounted to the base (11) of the box (10) by clicking through a system of tabs located on the chassis (16) and (38) in combination with some hooks located in the base (11) of the box (10), and to close a series of lids (18) are mounted on the interior of the box (10), (20) and (29) on the partitions (25-26) of the box (10), and on the upper (26) and lower (25) walls of the box (10) two upper and lower frames are inserted under pressure (12-13) formed by a configuration profile rectangular bent "U" with the help of some recessed (15) provided in (12-13) in combination with recesses (14) provided at the ends of (25-26), as can be seen in the figure No. 1

On the walls or partitions (25-26) are planned, as is a conventional solution, and can be seen in figure 1, 4 and 5 a set of removable portions for the passage of the sheaths and conductors that enter or leave the box (10) that offer the possibility to configure different diameters through hole (55) for ducts or covers, as appropriate depending on the thickness of the ducts, so that it is guaranteed maximum versatility to the whole box (10). These Removable portions are formed by various geometries concentric, preferably circumferences or joints of two Circumferences, united thanks to the forecast of the eyelashes (33-34), being able to detach the different portions of the walls (25-26) by breaking by the simple action of pressing them by the user. That way, the removable portions can mainly be simple (45), that is of circular geometry and with different concentric diameters to extract, or double (46), that is oval geometry, formed by the union of two parts Simple removable (45).

A preferred example is shown in Figure 6 of a double removable portion (46) formed by two portions inner circular (32) joined to two annular portions intermediate (31) through two tabs (34), while the portions (32) are attached to the central portion (50) through two tabs (33). Figures 7-9 show different possible configurations for the holes of the ducts (55): Figure 7 shows through holes (55) circular diameter (48), in which only the inner circular portions (32), figure 8 shows some circular holes (55) of diameter (47), greater than (45), in which the annular portions have also been subtracted intermediate (31), and figure 9 shows a through hole (55) oval in diameter (49), in which the central portion (50).

The walls (25-26) that make up the box (10), whose top-floor view can be seen in the Figure 2, are preferably formed by a double partition, the tabs (25a-25b) and (26a-26b) respectively, to ensure a absolute rigidity and tightness of the box (10).

Intermediate projections (56) arranged along the outer perimeter of the walls can be included
(25-26).

As can be seen in figure 1, two steps (37), of noticeably circular configuration, for drivers who they run through the inside of the box (10) and that go from the right to the left of (24) and vice versa.

In the base (11) of the box (10) they are incorporated by means of a clipping system the PIA's support chassis (16) and the ICP support chassis (38), both of plastic, by means of forecast of some tabs (39, 43) at the bottom of the chassis (16) and (38) respectively in combination with some hooks (53-54) provided in the base (11) of the box (10), so that the assembly of the chassis (16) and (38) to the box (10) is very simple and fast, just by applying of a small force on the chassis they are clicked, and they are firmly attached to the box (10).

Figure 2 shows four hooks (54) for the insertion of the four tabs (39) for securing the chassis (16) located in the same base (11) of the box (10) and in the proximities of the vertices of the PIA compartment (35). The hooks (53) for insertion of the tabs (43) are placed in the central part of the ICP compartment (36) together with a series of stops to position the ICP support frame horizontally (38), which configure the support (28). Figure 13 shows specifically the mounting of the ICP support chassis (38) on the support (28) by means of the insertion of the eyelashes (43) in the hooks (53), and the detail of the click system between the chassis tabs (16) and (38) the hooks on the base (11) of the box (10) is shown in figures 10-11. In Figure 10 can be seen in detail one embodiment Preferred flange fixing system (39) with the hook (54), so that the tab (39) enters through the slit (52) located at the base (11) of the box (10) and is hooked with the hitch (54) provided inside said cleft

Alternatively, some can be incorporated drills (44) and (51) in the vicinity of the hooks (54) and (53) respectively at the base (11) of the box (10), for enable the use of threaded joints, such as screws, such as alternative or complement to the click system.

They are also included through a system of clicked some easy-opening clamps (42) distributed to equal distances inside the partitions or walls (25-26) from the base of the box (11) and on the chassis (16) and (38), whose function is to guide and hold the wiring internal that runs through the inside of the box (10), as shown in figure 12.

The upper and lower frames (12-13) snap-in at the ends of the walls or partitions (25-26), whose function is that of protect the box (10) against the action of external agents, they have a series of recesses (15) on both sides, just as can be seen in figure 1, to be able to fix them to a wall or similar in two positions interchangeably.

In some points on both narrow sides of the  walls (25-26) holes (27) are arranged for the tapping of the covers (18-20), by means of corresponding special stems, as can be seen in the Figure 2.

As can be seen in figure 3, there are two covers, one (18) to cover the compartment of ICP (36) and another (20) to cover the PIA compartment (35), the which are provided with openings or openings (19) and (21) so that the user can access the governing bodies which are incorporated inside the box (10).

Said covers (18) and (20) are formed preferably by a double wall or partitions (18a-18b) and (20a-20b) respectively, having been provided in the lower partitions (18a) and (20a) some holes (40) to accommodate the stems that they will fix said partitions (18a) and (20a) with the walls (25-26), which at the same time have a recess for the coupling by clicking of the fins (23) of the sockets or strips (17) in the upper and lower strips of the covers (18) and (20), of rectangular flat configuration, whose function is that of cover the holes (40) over the entire length of the box (10), see Figure 3.

To close the box cabin (10) you place the protective cover (29), above the covers (18) and (20), and on whose sides some recesses (22) are foreseen for Perfect fit with the covers (18) and (20).

The shape of the chassis (16) and (38) may vary depending on the openings that exist in the covers (20) and (18) respectively, the chassis (16) being able, for example, to be provided of two or three parallel strips (41) in line with that (20) have two or three openings (21).
