Description

 The present invention relates to an electrical device whose control members and controlled devices are mobile.

 In particular, the invention applies to a removable system for controlling the supply of electrical appliances and, even more particularly, to domestic, office or industrial electrical installations, for example for controlling the electrical supply of household appliances. using the network (typically 220 Volts 50 Hertz or 110 Volts, 60 Hz).

 It applies in particular to a device making it possible to pre-wire a multifunction network, that is to say which has several functions, such as for example a power outlet, single ignition, double ignition, circuit selection, back and forth. - comes, remote control switch, timer, control functions, delay or remote control of devices such as heating, washing machine, dishwasher or oven.

 The device according to the present invention can be incorporated into a construction, in order to be connected to it by simple plugging in of the devices which must be integrated into one or more functions such as those mentioned above.

 An electrical installation is traditionally carried out by incorporating sheaths and boxes in the construction by embedding either in the formwork before pouring the concrete or in grooves made in the existing construction, or projecting by fixing on the walls and ceilings of the existing construction. . Then we must pass the electrical conductors in the boxes and sheaths, connect the conductors to the devices, fix the devices to the boxes thus forming covers and covers, while deforming and energetically repelling the rigid conductors.

 In the current situation, to be controlled by switches dedicated to the control of certain sockets in a room, electrical devices of known type, such as lamps, are placed at fixed and predetermined locations in the room. In fact, they are connected to so-called "controlled" sockets or directly connected to the output of said switches. Both the position of the devices to be controlled and that of the switches is fixed during the design of the room and cannot be changed later, even though the interior layout of the room can be changed by users over time .

 This traditional embodiment has many drawbacks: all the control members and all the controlled sockets must be positioned at the time of their initial installation.

Then they are fixed. The positioning of the furniture is then held by that of these bodies and fixed sockets.

 The present invention intends to remedy these drawbacks by proposing a system making it possible to freely place in a given room control interfaces and apparatuses to be controlled, independently of the apparatuses conventionally used and of the switches of the network.

 The system which is the subject of the present invention comprises an electrical circuit having at least two conductors, more possibly the ground, and a certain number of sockets and of control making it possible to place, on the one hand, control systems and, on the other hand, devices to be controlled on or off at any point in the room, provided that they are connected to an outlet on the circuit. Control interfaces and reception interfaces are defined, to which conventional electrical devices can be connected in a conventional manner.

 To this end, the present invention relates to a device for controlling the supply of electrical appliances suitable for being connected to an electrical supply network comprising at least three electrical conductors, characterized in that it comprises, connected to said network - at at least one control interface comprising a switch accessible to the user and electrically connecting the third of its conductors either with the first or with the second, taking into account the position of said switch and - at least one reception interface comprising a means reception to which is likely to be connected by plugging in at least one of the electrical devices, and an electrical connection of said electrical device controlled with, on the one hand, the third conductor, and, on the other hand, with one of the first and second conductors, so that the electrical supply of each electrical appliance to be controlled is controlled by the posi tion of said switch.

 Thanks to these provisions, the control interfaces can be moved to different points of the network without losing their effectiveness. The electrical configuration and the positioning of interfaces and electrical devices can therefore be modified at will by the user.

 The device according to the invention makes it possible to facilitate and shorten the realization of the installation, but also to interchange connected devices without altering their operation. It comprises a network pre-wired in the factory or on site, consisting of sheaths cut to length and connected to each other by means of housings. Conductors in identical number and types are passed through the sheaths and their ends are left waiting in the housings.

A variant consists in cutting the length of the sheath produced continuously "per kilometer", and already containing the conductors in appropriate number and types, which eliminates the manual operation of passing the conductors through the sheaths. Said boxes are preferably provided with the same terminal block with several poles intended to allow the orderly connection of the conductors left on standby, so that each pole of a box is electrically connected to the same pole of all the other boxes.

 Said boxes are also provided with a connector electrically connected to their terminal block and making it possible to quickly plug in a device, to connect it to the appropriate conductors, in accordance with the constitution of the network and with the function or functions in which the device must be insert. When a network with its defined functions is pre-wired, it is incorporated into the construction without any particular positioning constraints. Then each device is quickly connected by simply plugging it into a box. The poles of the terminal blocks of all the boxes being strictly equivalent, it is possible to reverse the devices without altering the operation. Despite the approximate positioning of the housing in the construction, the device makes it possible to correctly position the device, according to the standards in force, the chosen use and the aesthetic criteria retained. Each device can be of the switch, switch, push-button, electrical outlet, remote control, timer, wall, ceiling, convector type, and more generally any household appliance or not constructed in accordance with the present invention.

 The communication between the control and reception interfaces is materialized by at least one specific electrical link or conductor added to the traditional network existing in the room where one wishes to install the device, this installation in no way interfering with the other electrical devices, which use the other electrical conductors from the traditional network.

 The realization of the control and reception interfaces according to the invention is particularly easy since no electronic circuit or any complex component is necessary. The control interfaces and the reception interfaces can therefore be produced in large series and at low cost.

 The system is particularly suitable for new constructions and renovations.

 According to a preferred embodiment, the device is characterized in that each connection interface comprises - a terminal block to which the electrical conductors of the network are connected, - a frame, applied on the front of said interface and - a connector electrically connected to the terminal block by flexible conductors, each device being able to be inserted into the frame, and comprising a connector adapted to establish electrical contact with the connector of the frame.

 Thus, the network conductors are connected to each box on a terminal block located in a recess in the box, which completely releases the latter and makes it possible to introduce part of a bulky device.

A frame is applied on the front of the box and has a connector electrically connected to the terminal block by flexible conductors, which allows the frame to be oriented.

Each device can be inserted into the frame, and has a connector that makes electrical contact with the connector on the frame.

 According to particular characteristics, a connection interface comprises - a fixed part, - an orientable part adapted to be positioned independently of the fixed part, - terminal blocks for the connection of the electrical conductors of the network, - connectors for plugging in an electrical appliance and - electrical conductors between the terminal blocks and the connectors.

 Thanks to these provisions, the realization of the reception interfaces is simple and ensures a precise orientation of the connectors intended to receive the socket of the electrical devices likely to be inserted there.

 According to particular characteristics, the connection interface comprises a polarizing device adapted to prohibit the plugging in of electrical devices in an erroneous position.

 Thanks to these provisions, an error in positioning the plug or the plug-in position of electrical devices is impossible.

 According to particular characteristics, a reception interface comprises a switch accessible by the user adapted to electrically connect on the one hand the electrical apparatus to be controlled and, on the other hand, one of the first or second electrical conductors of the network, in such a way that the control interface and the reception interface jointly constitute an electrical back-and-forth.

 The electrical devices connected to the reception interfaces can therefore be controlled by the user independently either at the control interface or at the reception interface.

 Thus, the electrical devices which carry said standardized plugs can be connected to the network according to the present invention. A simple control system for a set of electrical elements is produced, which allows the devices to be used in their conventional form and connection, while allowing certain electrical devices not to be controlled in the room by the mobile control interfaces. , but on the contrary remain controlled according to their usual mode of control, by fixed wall switch for example.

According to particular characteristics, the control or reception interfaces include a cut-off system in the event of an overvoltage, for example a circuit breaker or a fuse of a rating which complies with the standards for the protection of electric lighting circuits, typically in France 10 Amps , 250
Volts.

 Thanks to these provisions, the interfaces provide functions for securing the network and the devices which are electrically connected to it.

 According to particular characteristics, at least one mobile control interface comprises a two-position control means, for example in the form of a two-position switch.

 Thanks to these provisions, the manufacture, implementation and use of the control interface are particularly easy.

 According to particular characteristics, at least one control interface comprises a pulse control means, for example in the form of a push button or touch-sensitive button, and at least one mobile reception interface comprises a remote control switch.

 The invention also relates to an electrical device characterized in that it comprises a reception interface adapted to be implemented in a device as succinctly described above.

 These various arrangements make it possible to carry out several conventional operating arrangement diagrams, such as back-and-forth or mounting with a remote control switch or a timer.

 The description which follows, made with reference to the accompanying drawings for explanatory purposes and in no way limiting, allows a better understanding of the advantages, aims and characteristics of the invention.

 FIG. 16 represents an electrical diagram of an example of an electrical network integrating several functions, a network produced according to the present invention.

 With reference to FIGS. 1 and 2, it is recalled that the traditional low-voltage alternating network of dwellings conventionally comprises two phase 201 and neutral 202 conductors, now most often supplemented for safety reasons by a grounding conductor wire 204. In a room 100 which it is desired to equip with the electrical device according to the present invention, a fourth conducting wire 203, called "common" or "shuttle" in the following description, is installed in parallel with the other wires of the network. , for example in the same electrical conduits. This conductive wire has a floating voltage when no switch electrically connects it to one of the electrical conductors 201 or 202.

 Connected to these four wires of the network, sockets with four electrical contacts 300 replace the traditional sockets with three electrical contacts at each location where it is envisaged to have an electrical appliance to control. Some of the traditional sockets with three electrical contacts can however remain, connected to the electrical conductors 201, 202 and 204, in known manner, without incompatibility with the mobile control system. The sockets with four electrical contacts can receive several types of elements: either known electrical devices 600 which will then not be controlled by the mobile control system, or mobile control interfaces 500, or combined mobile control and control interfaces. reception 700.

 The devices 400 which it is desired to control by the device according to the invention, by implementing a control interface 500, must be connected to the combined mobile control and reception interfaces 700, which have compatible female sockets with the traditional plugs of these devices, for this purpose.

 To allow the sockets with four contacts 300 to also accommodate conventional devices not controlled by the mobile system, the sockets with four studs are made compatible with traditional male plugs, for example by presenting, for the connection of the fourth stud connected to the " common ", a female stud which does not interfere with conventional plugs and which also allows for polarization during connection, by adapting its shape, for example rectangular, and its position, for example closer to the two phase connectors and neutral than the earth stud.

 In FIG. 1 are shown, for the equipment of a room 100, an electrical network 200 connecting fixed sockets 300 to which electrical devices 600 of known type can be connected, mobile control interfaces 500 and combined mobile control interfaces and reception 700. As will be explained with reference to FIG. 2, the electrical devices which are directly connected to fixed sockets 300 are supplied electrically permanently by this network. On the other hand, the devices connected to the combined mobile control and reception interfaces are electrically supplied by them according to predetermined rules which take into account the implementation of the mobile control interfaces 500.

 In FIG. 2 are represented the electrical elements of the network presented in FIG. 1 as well as a mobile combined interface for control and reception.

The electrical network 200 has four conductive wires, the phase 201, the neutral 202, the common 203 and the earth 204. The fixed sockets 300 are provided with four poles electrically connected to the four conductive wires of the network 200. The mobile control interface 500, plugged into an outlet 300, incorporates a plug 501 adapted to be electrically connected to all the conductors of the outlet 300 except for the earth outlet 204. The mobile control interface 500 includes a switch 502 accessible to the user who electrically connects to common 203, either phase 201, or neutral 202. Between common 203 and switch 502, the mobile control interface 500 includes a fuse 503, typically 10 amps.

 The combined interface 700 comprises a plug 701 identical to the plug 501, shown here with an earth connection, in dotted lines, to indicate that the device according to the invention works as well with as without the earth connections. It comprises a switch 702 identical to switch 502 and connected to the same plugs. On the other hand, the fuse 703 is connected on the one hand to the common pad of the switch 702 and on the other hand to the phase pad of an output socket 709. The output socket 709 further comprises a ground pad connected to the earth conductor 204 of network 200 and a neutral pad connected to the common conductor of network 200.

 The operation of the device according to the invention is as follows: the loads of the controlled electrical devices being connected on the one hand to the output of the switch 702, and on the other hand to the common 203 of this network, itself connected to the output of switch 502, they are electrically supplied only when the electrical signals at the output of these two switches are opposite. On the contrary, when these switches 502 or 702 are in the position shown in FIG. 2, the two terminals of the controlled electrical load 400 receive the same signal and this load is therefore not supplied electrically.

 The load of the device 600, on the other hand, is always connected to the phase 201 and to the neutral 202 and it is therefore always supplied with electricity.

 FIGS. 3A and 313 represent a fixed socket 300 according to the preferred embodiment of the invention, adapted to French standards in France. The phase, neutral and earth studs are identical to what is described in French standards for sockets. However, a fourth female stud is added. Thus, the power sockets of electrical devices of known type, supplied with 220 Volts, can be plugged into this socket 300. In addition, the fourth stud has a rectangular shape and is placed, relative to the axis connecting the phase and neutral on the side opposite the earth plug. Thus, the polarization is ensured, that is to say that a standardized socket cannot be inserted in the wrong position in the socket 300 presented in FIGS. 3A and 3B. It is observed, with reference to FIGS. 3A and 3B, that the sockets of electrical devices operating at 220 Volts in France, connect without modification to the network 200 which carries the fixed sockets 300. They then operate independently of the position of the switches of the device the invention.

 FIGS. 4A and 4B represent a control interface 500. We observe there the input plug which is adapted to be inserted in the socket presented in FIGS. 3A and 3B, as well as a two-position switch accessible manually by the user. . Figures 5A and 5B show a combined interface. We observe the input plug which is adapted to be inserted into the socket 300 shown in Figures 3A and 3B, as well as an output socket conforming to standard standards. On the upper part of the interface 700 is the switch 702 which has two positions.

 Figures 6 and 7 show a second embodiment of the invention in which the interfaces no longer include a switch. According to this second embodiment, the control interfaces 510 and the combined reception and control interfaces 710 each comprise a pulse control means, respectively 512 and 714, for example in the form of a push button or touch key. When the impulse control means brings the common 203 into contact with the neutral 202, the signal which travels through the neutral 202 is conveyed by the common conductor 203.

The mobile reception interface 710 further comprises a remote control switch 712, the position of which changes with each pulse transmitted on the common. When the remote control switch 712 is closed, it connects the phase 201 of the input socket 711, identical to the input socket 701 to the phase of the output socket 719, by means of a fuse 713. The electrical appliance 400, connected to the output socket, is therefore supplied electrically during a time interval which separates two successive pulses produced on one of the pulse control means. Then, until the next pulse, the electrical appliance is no longer supplied with power, when the remote control switch 712 is open.

 In this second embodiment, reception interfaces, not shown, comprising the same elements as the combined interfaces with the exception of the impulse control means 714, can be positioned on the network. They are then controlled by pulses emitted by pressing on a command interface command means or combined interface.

 Thanks to these provisions, several control interfaces can be inserted simultaneously into the device according to the present invention.

 FIGS. 8A and 8B represent a control interface 510 adapted to the implementation of the second embodiment of the invention. The push button 512 replaces the switch 502 presented in FIGS. 4A and 4B. It is observed that only two electrical terminals are necessary for this control interface, since the phase is not used, and that a clearance allows the passage of the earth stud.

 FIGS. 9A and 9B, finally, show the combined interface 710 adapted to operate in the second embodiment according to the invention. We can see the push button 714 and the housing for the remote control switch 712.

 FIG. 10 represents a particular embodiment of the device presented in FIGS. 1 to 5.

In this simple interface 800, a standard plug 801 is connected to a socket 809 on which a standard plug for a household appliance can be inserted. The common block of the plug 801 is electrically connected to the neutral block of the socket 809. In other words, the simple interface 800 has the same elements as the combined interface 700, except for the switch 702 and, in the embodiment shown, with the exception of fuse 703.

 The mobile reception interface 800 comprises on the one hand a three-pin input plug 801 connected to phase 201, to common 203 and to earth 204, on the other hand to an output socket 809 comprising a phase pad , a neutral pad and an earth pad, in a known manner.

Between the plug and the socket, conductive wires respectively connect the phase, the common and the earth, on the input socket 801, to the phase, neutral and earth, on the output socket 809. In the socket output socket 809, can be plugged in the power socket of an electrical appliance of known type, the load of which is connected to the phase and neutral terminals of the output socket 809, that is to say to the phase conductor wires 201 and common 203 of the network 200. Thus constituted, the device operates in simple interruption: the load 400 is only supplied when the output of the switch 502 of the control interface 500 is connected to the neutral 202.

 It can be seen in FIGS. 11A and 11B that the simple reception interface comprises a socket and a plug respectively identical to those of the combined interface presented in FIGS. 5A and 5B, but does not have a switch.

 Preferably, the outlet 300, the control interfaces 500 and 510, the combined interfaces 700 and 710 and the simple interface 800 each consist of two elements of insulating synthetic plastic material, injection molded, screwed or welded one to the other. 'other and surrounding the contacts, plugs, or electrical contacts, the fuse and any other elements, such as switches and remote switches. It is noted, in this regard that according to execution measures known to those skilled in the art, the fuse may be removable, with a view to its replacement, or not, to avoid that an erroneous and dangerous replacement cannot take place.

 The device represented in FIGS. 12A to 12D comprises flexible conductors 1208 electrically connecting a connector 1204 to a terminal block 1202, wedged in the recess of an envelope 1201, which keeps the flexible conductors 1208 in place when the screws of the terminal block 1202 are loosened . The electrical conductors 1203, of the network are also connected to the terminal block 1202. A removable cover and not shown makes it possible to protect the assembly during its embedding or its fixing to the construction. Once said protective cover has been removed, the connector 1204 is inserted into a frame serving as a hubcap 1209 and immobilized by hooks 1212. The frame 1209 is oriented to compensate for the approximate horizontal positioning of the envelope 1201 in construction, the conductors flexible 1208 does not hinder this movement.

 Then the frame 1209 is immobilized by claw screws 1207 taking hold on the internal walls of the casing 1201. The apparatus 1206, here shown in the form of a switch and socket combination standardized to two poles and earth, is provided a connector 1205 corresponding to the connector 1204. Each device 1206 is also provided with two rigid hooks 1210 and a retractable hook 1211 with return spring, the trim frame 1209 comprising on its rear face housings for immobilizing said hooks.

 The apparatus 1206 is introduced into the opening of the frame 1209, engaging the rigid hooks 1210 in their housing, then the apparatus 1206 is pressed against the frame 1209, which eclipses and engages the retractable hook 1211 in its housing. The apparatus 1206 thus locked, and forming a hubcap is integrated into the frame 1209 and its connector 1205, by a system of springs, is kept in contact with the opposing connector 1204 por 1302, each of them being electrically connected to a cell 1304. The core 1309 is fixed to the center of an envelope 1301 using a screw 1310. The electrical conductors 1303 of the network pass between the core 1309 and the housing 1301 at its periphery and at the bottom, and are connected to the terminals 1302. A removable cover, not shown, protects the assembly when it is built in or when it is fixed to the construction. Once said protective cover is removed, the core 1309 is oriented to compensate for the approximate horizontal positioning of the envelope 1301 in the construction, then immobilized by the screw 1310. The device 1306, here represented in the form of a handset which associates a switch and a standardized socket with two poles and earth, is provided with pins 1305 corresponding to the cells 1304 of the core 1309. The apparatus 1306 is plugged into the core 1309, and it is immobilized by claw screws 1307 taking hold on the internal walls of the casing 1301. The apparatus 1306 also jointly performs the functions of cover plate and hubcap.

 It is observed that the two cells 1304 located on the horizontal axis comply with the standards for electrical outlets. Thus, in the particular case of an apparatus 1306 incorporating a standardized socket, holes 1311 allow the passage of the two pins 1312 of a standardized plug which is plugged directly into the two standardized cells 1304. The remaining visible part 1300 is compact despite the two electrical functions which it integrates.

 The device shown in FIGS. 14A to 14C comprises a terminal block 1402 directly electrically connected to a connector 1404. The terminal block 1402 is wedged in the reinforcement of an envelope 1401. The conductors 1403 of the network are connected to the terminal block 1402. A removable cover not shown helps protect the assembly during its installation or its attachment to the construction.

 The apparatus 1406, here represented in the form of a handset which associates a switch and a standardized socket with two poles and earth, is provided with flexible conductors 1408, terminated by a connector 1405. Once said protective cover is removed, the connector 1405 is plugged into connector 1404, the device 1406 is oriented to compensate for the approximate horizontal positioning of the envelope 1401 in construction, the flexible conductors not hampering this movement.

 Then the apparatus 1406 is immobilized by claw screws 1407 taking hold on the internal walls of the envelope 1401. The apparatus 1406 also jointly performs the functions of cover plate and hubcap. The remaining visible part 1400 is compact despite the two electrical functions it integrates.

 The device shown in FIGS. 15A to 15F comprises terminals 1502 distributed on the periphery, inside and at the bottom of an enclosure 1501. The electrical conductors 1503 of the network are connected to terminals 1502, which are electrically connected by conductors 1508 to circular rings 1504 stacked around a core 1509 in the center of the envelope 1501. A removable cover (not shown) makes it possible to protect the assembly during its embedding or its fixing to the construction. The apparatus 1506, here represented in the form of a handset which associates a switch and a standardized socket with two poles and earth, is provided with brushes 1505 intended to ensure rotary electrical contact with the circular rings 1504. Once said cover With the protection removed, the device 1506 can be rotated up to 360 degrees, to compensate for the approximate positioning of the envelope 1501 in the construction. It then suffices to apply the apparatus 1506 to the envelope 1501 to ensure contact between the brushes 1505 and the rings 1504. Then the apparatus 1506 is immobilized by claw screws 1507 taking hold on the internal walls of the envelope 1501. The apparatus 1506 jointly performs the functions of cover plate and hubcap.

 It is observed that in the particular case of a device 1506 integrating a standardized current outlet, two brushes 1505 are missing to establish contact with two of the rings 1504. In fact, holes in the device allow the passage of the two pins 1512 a standard plug which is plugged in directly, and which are brought into electrical contact with said two rings 1504, by means of electrical contacts 1511 forming a spring and held in the body of the device 1506. The part remaining visible 1500 is compact despite the two electrical functions it integrates.

 The electrical diagram shown in Figure 16 includes a set of identical boxes 1607 connected together by a bus type electrical network with six electrical conductors: phase 1601, neutral 1602, earth 1603 and specific electrical conductors 1604, 1605 and 1606 The functions defined for the device are: sockets, simple ignition, a remote control switch and a two-way switch at two control stations. A simple switch 1608, plugged into a box 1607, controls, via the electrical conductor 1604, the lighting of a fixed light 1609 of the ceiling or wall light type, plugged into a box 1607, and of mobile lighting 1611 of the bedside lamp or floor lamp type, plugged into a housing 1607 via an interface 1610.

Two push buttons 1612, plugged into two boxes 1607, activate, via the electrical conductor 1605, a remote control switch 1613 plugged into a box 1607, which controls mobile lighting 1614 of the bedside lamp or floor lamp type, plugged into the remote control switch 1613 Two two-position switches 1615 and 1616, plugged into two boxes 1607, operate back and forth to a shuttle, via the electrical conductor 1606, the assembly controlling the lighting of a mobile light 1617 of the type of bedside lamp or floor lamp plugged into switch 1616.

 Interfaces 1618, plugged into boxes 1607 constitute sockets for permanently supplying mobile devices 1619.

 All combinations of devices are possible.

One can, for example, combine a socket 1618 with a switch 1608 or a switch 1615, or both together. You can also combine a remote switch 1613 with a push button 1612 or a ceiling light 1609.

 On the other hand, depending on the number and the locations of the 1607 boxes, it is possible to invert all the devices without modifying their operation and their control, the network being of the bus type. For example, we can decide to change the locations of a wall lamp 1608, push buttons 1612 and the remote control switch 1613 controlling the lamp post 1614.

 Furthermore, a network and / or electrical functions can be distributed in a single room or in several. Thus, a known type of programmer can control the lighting of a lamp and a radio in the bedroom, the stereo in the living room and the coffee machine in the kitchen.

 Similarly, a "off-peak" contactor can control the activation of a washing machine and dryer in the bathroom, and a dishwasher in the kitchen, during the low pricing period of electricity.
