Description

"Plinth for cable routing and receiving electrical equipment

  "The plinth of the invention comprises a base formed by a profile obtained by extrusion provided with longitudinal partitions delimiting open compartments on their upper face and a suitable cover

  on this base to close the compartments, plinth ca-

  characterized in that two of the neighboring partitions delimiting a compartment are provided with means for reception

  electrical equipment and that these partitions are

  views of indentations, distributed along the length of the partitions and aligned transversely to the profile, these indentations

  opening onto the open side of the compartments.

  According to another characteristic of the invention, the cover is made in three parts, one

  first flat part fitting onto the two partitions

  sines to close the compartment receiving the devices-

  electrical management in places where they do not have one and a second and a third part placed on the base of

  on either side of the first part, these second and third

  sith parts being made, in section, in the form of angles

  to also constitute the lateral sides of the plinth.

  The invention is shown by way of non-limiting example in the single attached drawing which is a view

  in perspective partially torn from a plinth

form to the invention.

  The present invention therefore aims to

  the realization of a plinth which can receive devices

  electrical reillages such as sockets, telephone and others, as well as the electrical supply and connection cables, these devices and cables

  being arranged in separate compartments. This provision

  sition is also such that it is possible to move

  electrical equipment and cables without being obli-

  to disconnect these cables from their electrical equipment

than.

  The plinth according to the invention is particularly

  particularly advantageous in premises where it is necessary to modify

  frequently the arrangement of partitions to modify the

  partition, area or location of offices and

  very rooms of a room according to the wishes of a new occupant.

  The plinth shown in the drawings below

  joints consists of a base 1 consisting of a straight profile obtained by extrusion of a plastic material, this profile having longitudinal partitions 2, 3, 4 and 5 obtained directly during the extrusion of the profile. These partitions delimit compartments 6, 7, 8 and 9, the width and height of which are determined by the dimensions of the electrical equipment 10 and 11 which must be there.

  fixed, as well as by the number and the section of the conduc-

  electrical devices 12 and 13 which must be guided there.

  On this base 1 is fitted a cover which, according to the example shown, is produced in three

  parts 14, 15 and 16 made so as to close off the facets

  these open compartments 6, 7, 8 and 9.

  In accordance with the invention, the compartment 7 delimited by the two adjacent partitions 2 and 3, is intended

  to receive electrical devices 10 and 11 and

  for this purpose carries means for receiving these devices.

  reillages which, in the example shown, consist

  by grooves 2, and 31 capable of receiving lan-

  snap-locks 10 and 11, formed on the base of the

  electrical equipment 10 and 11.

  Along these latching grooves 2z, 3 are provided two other grooves 22, 32 intended to receive the latching tabs 14, provided on the internal face of the cover 14. This cover 14 also produced

  made of plastic, can thus be sectioned lengthwise

  required to close the central compartment 7 of the plinth where it does not have

  of electrical equipment 10 and 11.

  According to the invention, all of the partitions 2, 3, 4 and 5 of the base 1 is provided with notches 17 regularly distributed along each partition and aligned transversely to the longitudinal axis

  from one section to the other. These indentations open out

  in 17, on the upper open face of the compartments

  elements to allow the passage of cables 12 and 13 from

  one of the compartments to its neighbor.

  This arrangement makes it possible to quickly and simply modify the position of the apparatuses 10 and 11 along the compartment 7 of the plinth without having to disconnect the conductors 12 and 13 since it is possible to remove these apparatuses with their cables in

  extracting them from the notches 17 and then replacing these devices

  reillages at the desired location by relocating the cables in the neighboring compartment 6 or 8 via the

  notches 17 available at this location.

  According to the example shown, the three-part cover 14, 15, 16, comprises the central part 14

  which fits on the opening of compartment 7 of the

  for electrical equipment and two parts of

  circle 15 and 16 arranged on either side of the

  compartment 14 in order to close the compartment respectively

ment 6 and compartments 8 and 9.

  These covers 15 and 16 are made in section in the form of cutaway angles and constitute by their edges 15z and 16z the lateral sides of the plinth while the sides 152, 162 come to fit on the top of the plinth along electrical equipment and

central part 14 of the cover.

  These parts 15 and 16 of the cover are fixed

  on the lateral edges of the base 1 and on the upper edge

  laughing of partitions by an assembly comprising grooves

  O10 and snap tabs 18.
