PANNEAU DE CONNEXION A PLUSIEURS
RANGEES DE PRISES
La présente invention concerne un panneau de connexion comprenant plusieurs rangées de prises auxquelles sont connectés des câbles notamment téléphoniques.MULTIPLE CONNECTION PANEL
SOCKET ROWS
The present invention relates to a connection panel comprising several rows of sockets to which cables, in particular telephone cables, are connected.
Ces prises sont notamment du type RJ45 tel que décrit par exemple dans l'US-A-4 790 769. These sockets are in particular of the RJ45 type as described for example in US-A-4,790,769.
La connexion des câbles dans les baies est souvent mal commode et donc coûteuse, aussi bien pour le câblage initial que pour la maintenance. Connecting the cables in the racks is often inconvenient and therefore expensive, both for initial wiring and for maintenance.
La technique de connexion la plus utilisée est celle des contacts autodénudants, qui implique l'utilisation d'un outil d'insertion avec lequel l'opérateur pousse le fil entre les lames du contact de la prise, ce qui nécessite un espace minimum de 15 cm au-dessus du bornier. The most used connection technique is that of insulation displacement contacts, which involves the use of an insertion tool with which the operator pushes the wire between the contact contact blades, which requires a minimum space of 15 cm above the terminal block.
Pour faciliter ce travail, il faut
- permettre la connexion des câbles sur les borniers des prises, non pas de l'intérieur de la baie, mais par sa face avant,
- ménager le maximum d'espace libre autour des prises en position de câblage.To facilitate this work,
- allow the cables to be connected to the terminal blocks of the sockets, not from inside the bay, but by its front face,
- provide maximum free space around the sockets in the wiring position.
Par ailleurs, le panneau de connexion est en général en retrait par rapport du bâti de la baie. Pour utiliser la ou les dernières rangées, il faut pouvoir les dégager, car entre autre il n'y a pas de place pour un outil tenu verticalement. Furthermore, the connection panel is generally set back from the rack frame. To use the last row (s), you must be able to clear them, because among other things there is no room for a tool held vertically.
Dans les réalisations connues, les prises sont fixées à un support plat qui est simplement vissé aux quatre coins. In known embodiments, the sockets are fixed to a flat support which is simply screwed to the four corners.
Le câblage peut se faire soit de l'intérieur, soit par l'avant, le support étant dévissé et suspendu au bout des câbles déjà connectés ou maintenu par des moyens provisoires. The wiring can be done either from the inside or from the front, the support being unscrewed and suspended at the end of the cables already connected or maintained by temporary means.
Dans une autre réalisation, le support des prises est articulé en rotation. Cependant, cette rotation est limitée à 900. Cela oblige, pour la plupart des types de prise, à tenir les outils verticalement, à petite distance du panneau, d'où une manipulation encore malaisée et une impossibilité pour la dernière rangée située en haut de la baie. In another embodiment, the socket support is articulated in rotation. However, this rotation is limited to 900. This obliges, for most types of grip, to hold the tools vertically, at a short distance from the panel, which makes handling still difficult and impossible for the last row located at the top of the Bay.
Le but de la présente invention est de proposer un panneau de connexion permettant d'accéder facilement aux prises fixées à son support pour la mise en place des câbles ou pour intervenir sur ceux-ci. The object of the present invention is to provide a connection panel allowing easy access to the sockets attached to its support for the installation of cables or for working on them.
L'invention vise ainsi un panneau de connexion comprenant au moins une rangée de prises auxquelles sont connectés des câbles notamment téléphoniques, la face des prises d'une rangée opposée à celle recevant les câbles étant fixée à un support articulé, de façon à pouvoir basculer pour accéder aux câbles. The invention thus relates to a connection panel comprising at least one row of sockets to which cables, in particular telephone cables, are connected, the face of the sockets of a row opposite to that receiving the cables being fixed to an articulated support, so as to be able to tilt to access the cables.
Suivant l'invention, ce panneau de connexion est caractérisé en ce que le support est fixé à des moyens permettant de le sortir du panneau par translation puis de lui faire subir une rotation de 1800 autour de son axe d'articulation. According to the invention, this connection panel is characterized in that the support is fixed to means making it possible to remove it from the panel by translation and then to make it undergo a rotation of 1800 around its axis of articulation.
La face arrière des prises apparaît ainsi devant le panneau de connexion. Il devient alors très aisé de connecter les câbles au bornier situé sur la face arrière des prises ou pour modifier les connexions. The rear side of the sockets thus appears in front of the connection panel. It then becomes very easy to connect the cables to the terminal block located on the rear face of the sockets or to modify the connections.
De préférence, chaque support comprend à chaque extrémité, une patte pliée à angle droit par rapport à la face du support à laquelle les prises sont fixées et s'étendant vers l'intérieur, chaque patte étant fixée de façon articulée à une équerre fixe suivant un axe parallèle au support et voisin du bord inférieur de celui-ci, chaque patte et / ou chaque équerre comprenant une ouverture oblongue s'étendant perpendiculairement à ladite face du support dans laquelle est engagé un pivot définissant l'axe d'articulation du support. Preferably, each support comprises at each end, a lug bent at right angles to the face of the support to which the sockets are fixed and extending inwards, each lug being fixed in an articulated manner to a fixed bracket according to an axis parallel to the support and adjacent to the lower edge thereof, each tab and / or each bracket comprising an oblong opening extending perpendicular to said face of the support in which is engaged a pivot defining the articulation axis of the support .
L'ouverture oblongue dans laquelle est engagé le pivot, permet d'exécuter les mouvements de translation et de rotation évoqués ci-dessus. The oblong opening in which the pivot is engaged, makes it possible to execute the movements of translation and rotation mentioned above.
D'autres particularités et avantages de l'invention apparaîtront encore dans la description ciaprès. Other features and advantages of the invention will become apparent in the description below.

FIG. 5 is an end view of the panel according to the embodiment of FIG. 4.
Dans la réalisation de la figure 1, le panneau de connexion 1 comprend plusieurs rangées superposées de prises 2, 2a, 2b, auxquelles sont connectés des câbles (non représentés) notamment téléphoniques. La face avant 3 des prises 2, 2a, 2b, d'une rangée opposée à la face arrière 4 recevant les câbles est fixée à un support 5, par exemple en tôle, articulé de façon à pouvoir basculer pour accéder aux câbles. In the embodiment of FIG. 1, the connection panel 1 comprises several superimposed rows of sockets 2, 2a, 2b, to which cables (not shown), in particular telephone cables, are connected. The front face 3 of the sockets 2, 2a, 2b, of a row opposite to the rear face 4 receiving the cables is fixed to a support 5, for example made of sheet metal, articulated so as to be able to tilt to access the cables.
Conformément à l'invention, le support 5 est fixé à des moyens qui seront détaillés plus loin, permettant de le sortir du panneau par translation (voir flèche T) puis de lui faire subir une rotation de 1800 (voir flèche R) autour de son axe d'articulation. In accordance with the invention, the support 5 is fixed to means which will be detailed below, making it possible to remove it from the panel by translation (see arrow T) and then to make it undergo a rotation of 1800 (see arrow R) around its articulation axis.
Comme représenté sur la figure 2, chaque support 5 comprend, à chaque extrémité, une patte 6 pliée à angle droit par rapport à la face plane 7 du support 5 à laquelle les prises 2, 2a, 2b sont fixées. As shown in FIG. 2, each support 5 comprises, at each end, a tab 6 folded at right angles to the flat face 7 of the support 5 to which the sockets 2, 2a, 2b are fixed.
Chaque patte 6 s'étend vers l'intérieur du panneau 1 et est fixée de façon articulée à une équerre fixe 8 suivant un axe X-X' parallèle au support 5 et voisin du bord inférieur 5a de celui-ci. Each tab 6 extends towards the inside of the panel 1 and is hingedly attached to a fixed bracket 8 along an axis XX ′ parallel to the support 5 and adjacent to the lower edge 5a thereof.
Chaque patte 6 et chaque équerre 8 comprend une ouverture oblongue 9, 10 s'étendant perpendiculairement à la face 7 du support 5. Each tab 6 and each bracket 8 comprises an oblong opening 9, 10 extending perpendicular to the face 7 of the support 5.
Dans ces ouvertures oblongues 9, 10, est engagé un pivot 11 définissant l'axe d'articulation X-X' du support 5. In these oblong openings 9, 10, a pivot 11 is engaged defining the axis of articulation X-X 'of the support 5.
Les figures 1 et 2 montrent, d'autre part, que le support 5 présente une aile supérieure 12 et une aile inférieure 13. Ces ailes 12, 13 s'étendent perpendiculairement à la face avant 7 du support à partir de ses bords inférieur 5a et supérieur 5b, vers l'intérieur du panneau 1. Figures 1 and 2 show, on the other hand, that the support 5 has an upper wing 12 and a lower wing 13. These wings 12, 13 extend perpendicular to the front face 7 of the support from its lower edges 5a and higher 5b, towards the inside of the panel 1.
Les ouvertures oblongues 9, 10 ménagées dans les pattes 6 et les équerres 8 ont une longueur telle qu'elle permet une translation T du support 5 portant une rangée de prises 2, 2a, 2b suffisante pour dégager ces prises à l'extérieur du panneau 1, comme montré par la figure 1. The oblong openings 9, 10 formed in the legs 6 and the brackets 8 have a length such that it allows a translation T of the support 5 carrying a row of sockets 2, 2a, 2b sufficient to release these sockets outside the panel 1, as shown in Figure 1.
On voit également sur la figure 1 que la fin de course de rotation R du support 5 est définie par l'appui de la face avant 7 du support 5 contre la face avant 7 du support de la rangée de prises s'étendant sous la précédente. It can also be seen in FIG. 1 that the end of rotation R of the support 5 is defined by the support of the front face 7 of the support 5 against the front face 7 of the support of the row of sockets extending under the previous one .
Dans cette position, la face arrière 4 de la prise 2, 2a ou 2b est tournée vers l'avant. Un opérateur peut ainsi très facilement accéder à la face arrière 4 des prises soit pour y connecter des câbles, soit pour modifier la connexion de ceux-ci. In this position, the rear face 4 of the socket 2, 2a or 2b is facing forward. An operator can thus very easily access the rear face 4 of the sockets either to connect cables to it, or to modify the connection thereof.
Pour fixer le support 5 au panneau, il comprend dans le prolongement de la face plane 7 une oreille 16 munie d'un trou 16 pour le passage d'une vis. To fix the support 5 to the panel, it comprises, in the extension of the flat face 7, an ear 16 provided with a hole 16 for the passage of a screw.
Dans la réalisation des figures 4 et 5 l'équerre 8 comporte une ouverture oblonge 10 présentant à son extrémité une échancrure 10a dirigée vers le haut servant de logement pour le pivot 11 en fin de course de rotation du support pour le verrouiller en translation, comme indiqué sur la figure 5. In the embodiment of FIGS. 4 and 5, the bracket 8 has an oblong opening 10 having at its end a notch 10a directed upwards serving as a housing for the pivot 11 at the end of the rotation stroke of the support to lock it in translation, as shown in Figure 5.
Dans cette position, les faces supérieures 17 des oreilles 16 reposent sur la face 18 de l'équerre 8 de fixation du support inférieur. In this position, the upper faces 17 of the ears 16 rest on the face 18 of the bracket 8 for fixing the lower support.
L'opérateur peut ainsi câbler les prises sans que le support bouge. The operator can thus wire the sockets without the support moving.
