Description
Die vorliegende Erfindung betrifft eine Kombination bestehend aus einem anreihbaren Einbaugehäuse, bestehend aus einem Gehäuseboden und einem Durchtrittsöffnungen aufweisenden Rahmen aus Isolierstoff und einem Deckel, wobei in dem hierdurch definierten Einbauraum des Gehäuses elektrisch/elektronische Bauelemente in Form eines Relais, das Kontaktfedersätze, einen Spülenkörper und Betätigungsvorrichtungen aufweist und in dem Einbauraum des Einbaugehäuses auswechselbar und mit Anschlüssen für ankommende und abgehende elektrische Leiter verbindbar angeordnet sind.The present invention relates to a combination consisting of a modular installation housing, consisting of a housing base and a frame made of insulating material and openings, and in the thereby defined installation space of the housing electrical / electronic components in the form of a relay, the contact spring sets, a sink body and Has actuators and are interchangeably arranged in the installation space of the installation housing and can be connected to connections for incoming and outgoing electrical conductors.
Derartige anreihbare Einbaugehäuse für die verschiedensten Anwendungsfälle und die Aufnahme unterschiedlicher elektrischer/elektronischer Bauelemente sind ihrem Grundaufbau nach beispielsweise aus den EP 0 235 320-A1 und EP 0 221 201-A1 bekannt. Soweit man bislang in derartigen Einbaugehäusen auch elektrisch/elektronische Bauelemente in Form von Relais angeordnet hat, sind dies immer komplette Relais einschließlich eines eigenen Gehäuses gewesen, mit dem Ergebnis, daß man für die verschiedenen Anwendungszwecke zahlreiche unterschiedliche komplette Relais zu bevorraten hat, die aufgrund ihres recht voluminösen Aufbaus einschließlich ihres Gehäuses im Einbaugehäuse auch einen relativ großen Platz für sich beanspruchen.Such a modular housing for a wide variety of applications and for accommodating different electrical / electronic components are known in their basic structure, for example from EP 0 235 320-A1 and EP 0 221 201-A1. As far as one has arranged electrical / electronic components in the form of relays in such built-in housings, these have always been complete relays, including their own housings, with the result that numerous different complete relays have to be stocked for different applications, which due to their quite voluminous construction including its housing in the built-in housing also take up a relatively large space.
Es ist andererseits bei Relais selbst bekannt (DE-AS 1 614 213), den Spulenkörper und die Betätigungsvorrichtung des Relais von den zu steuernden Kontaktsätzen zu trennen, so daß die Kontaktsätze bei Bedarf, beispielsweise bei Verschleiß, separat ausgewechselt werden können. Ferner ist es bei Relais für sich genommen bekannt (DE-PS 2 911 761), deren Socken innenseitig mit Leiterbahnen für eine Relaisbeschaltung auszustatten. Die Leiterbahnen sind dort allerdings auf einer separaten, im Sockel unterzubringenden Leiterplatte angeordnet. Die Einfügung von Leiterplatten in anreihbare Einbaugehäuse der in Frage stehenden Art ist auch aus der bereits genannten EP-0 235 320-A1 bekannt, während es andererseits bei Reihenklemmen bekannt geworden ist (EP 0 222 038-A1), eine der Reihenklemmenseitenwände direkt mit Leiterbahnen zu beschichten, auf denen elektrisch/elektronische Bauelemente in SMD - Technik befestigt werden können.On the other hand, it is known for relays themselves (DE-AS 1 614 213) to separate the coil body and the actuating device of the relay from the contact sets to be controlled, so that the contact sets can be replaced separately if necessary, for example when worn. Furthermore, in the case of relays it is known per se (DE-PS 2 911 761) to equip the socks on the inside with conductor tracks for a relay circuit. However, the conductor tracks are arranged there on a separate circuit board to be accommodated in the base. The insertion of printed circuit boards in modular housing of the type in question is also known from EP-0 235 320-A1 already mentioned, while on the other hand it has become known for terminal blocks (EP 0 222 038-A1), one of the terminal block side walls directly with conductor tracks to coat on which electrical / electronic components can be attached using SMD technology.
Der vorliegenden Erfindung liegt die Aufgabe zugrunde, ein Einbaugehäuse der gattungsgemäßen Art, in dem ein Relais angeordnet ist, so auszugestalten, daß die Herstellung, die Montage und die Lagerhaltung auch unter Berücksichtigung unterschiedlicher Relaisgrößen und -formen erheblich vereinfacht wird.The present invention is based on the object of designing a built-in housing of the generic type in which a relay is arranged in such a way that the manufacture, assembly and storage are considerably simplified, also taking into account different relay sizes and shapes.
Die erfindungsgemäße Lösung besteht bei einem anreihbaren Einbaugehäuse mit darin angeordnetem Relais der gattungsgemäßen Art darin, daß in dem Einbauraum des Einbaugehäuses an vorgegebener Stelle Halterungen für die direkte Aufnahme der Kontaktfedersätze wie auch des Spulenkörpers und ferner der Betätigungsvorrichtungen der Relais angeordnet sind.The solution according to the invention consists in a modular installation housing with a relay of the generic type arranged therein that holders for the direct reception of the contact spring sets as well as the coil body and also the actuating devices of the relays are arranged in the installation space of the installation housing.
Dank dieser Ausgestaltung ist es nunmehr nicht erforderlich, in das Einbaugehäuse jeweils komplette Relais mit eigenem Gehäuse einsetzen müssen. Man kann vielmehr jeweils nach Bedarf in einfacher Weise die verschiedenen Kontaktfedersätze und die unterschiedlichen Spulenkörper, jeweils verschiedener Nennspannungen beispielsweise, einschließlich der entsprechenden Betätigungsvorrichtungen als gesondert in einfacher Weise zu bevorratende Einzelteile in der jeweils gewünschten Kombination in das Einbaugehäuse einsetzen und darin festlegen. Im Fehlerfall können auch die genannten Einzelteile bzw. Baugruppen ausgetauscht werden.Thanks to this configuration, it is now no longer necessary to use complete relays with their own housings in the built-in housing. Rather, the different contact spring sets and the different coil formers, each with different nominal voltages, for example, including the corresponding actuating devices, can be inserted in the installation housing in the desired combination in the desired combination in a simple manner and fixed therein. In the event of a fault, the individual parts or assemblies mentioned can also be replaced.
Die Lagerhaltung und Bevorratung insbesondere im Bereich der verschiedenen Relais werden dadurch erheblich vereinfacht. Ferner ergibt sich durch den Fortfall des relaiseigenen Gehäuses im Einbauraum der Einbaugehäuse ein deutlich vergrößerter Freiraum, der die Unterbringungsmöglichkeit weiterer elektrischer/elektronischer Bauelemente beträchtlich verbessert.
So können in weiterer Ausgestaltung der Erfindung nunmehr in verstärktem Maß im Inneren des Einbaugehäuses zusätzliche elektrische/elektronische Beschaltungselemente für das Relais und/oder den vom Relais gesteuerten, die Federkontakte beinhaltenden Steuerkreis untergebracht werden. Man kann dies, wie bislang bei derartigen Einbaugehäusen üblich, über einzusetzende Leiterplattenstücke tun. In einer besonders vorteilhaften Weiterentwicklung der vorliegenden Erfindung ist jedoch vorgesehen, die Innenfläche der Seitenwand des Einbaugehäuses direkt mit Leiterbahnen zu versehen, auf denen dann in SMD - Technik die für die Beschaltung der Relaisspule und/oder der Kontaktfedersätze für den jeweiligen Anwendungsfall benötigten elektrisch/elektronischen Bauelemente angebracht werden können. Da dank der erfindungsgemäßen Ausgestaltung die Lage der elektrischen Wirkteile des Relais über die Halterungen an vorgegebener Stelle festgelegt ist und da auch die Lage der aus dem Einbaugehäuse herausführenden Anschlußelemente vorgegeben ist, können von vornherein in exakter Anpassung an den jeweiligen Anwendungsfall über die Leiterbahnen alle leitenden Verbindungen mit einfachen Montagetechniken vorgefertigt werden, so daß anwenderseitig erheblich an sonst erforderlicher Verdrahtungsarbeit gespart wird.This considerably simplifies storage and stocking, particularly in the area of the various relays. Furthermore, the omission of the relay-specific housing in the installation space of the installation housing results in a significantly increased free space, which considerably improves the possibility of accommodating further electrical / electronic components.
Thus, in a further embodiment of the invention, additional electrical / electronic wiring elements for the relay and / or the control circuit controlled by the relay and containing the spring contacts can now be accommodated to an increased extent in the interior of the installation housing. This can be done, as was previously the case with such installation housings, by means of printed circuit board pieces. In a particularly advantageous further development of the present However, the invention provides for the inner surface of the side wall of the built-in housing to be provided directly with conductor tracks on which the electrical / electronic components required for the connection of the relay coil and / or the contact spring sets for the respective application can then be attached using SMD technology. Since, thanks to the design according to the invention, the position of the electrical active parts of the relay is fixed at the predetermined position via the brackets and since the position of the connection elements leading out of the installation housing is also specified, all conductive connections can be made from the start in exact adaptation to the respective application via the conductor tracks are prefabricated with simple assembly techniques, so that the user saves considerably on the otherwise required wiring work.
Insgesamt wird bei dieser Ausgestaltung durch den Fortfall etwaiger separater Leiterplattenstücke die Herstellung besonders kostengünstig möglich.Overall, in this embodiment, the production of particularly separate pieces of printed circuit board is possible in a particularly cost-effective manner.
In weiterer Ausgestaltung des Gegenstandes der Erfindung sind die aus dem Rahmen des Einbaugehäuses herausgeführten Anschlußelemente zweckmäßig Steckfahnen und es ist zum Anschließen von außen kommender Leiter ein auf die Oberseite des anreihbaren Einbaugehäuses aufsetzbarer Anschlußadapter vorgesehen, der von seiner Innenausstattung her jeweils unterschiedliche Anschlußmöglichkeiten wie beispielsweise Schraubanschlüsse, Steckanschlüsse und dergleichen vorsieht, so daß man auch insoweit von der Anschlußtechnik her in denkbar einfacher Weise sich den verschiedenen Erfordernissen anpassen kann.In a further embodiment of the subject matter of the invention, the connection elements led out of the frame of the installation housing are expediently plug-in lugs, and a connection adapter which can be placed on the top of the stackable installation housing is provided for connecting conductors coming from the outside, and each has different connection options, such as screw connections, for its interior. Provides plug-in connections and the like, so that it is also simpler in this respect from the connection technology Way to adapt to different needs.
Für das anreihbare Einbaugehäuse ist schließlich, wie bei derartigen Gehäusen üblich, an der Unterseite die Verbindung mit einem Rastfuß vorgesehen. Zweckmäßig beinhaltet das System unterschiedliche Rastfüße beispielsweise für das Aufsetzen auf unterschiedliche Tragschienen oder sonstige Trägerelemente.Finally, as is customary with such housings, the connection with a snap-in foot is provided on the underside for the modular housing. The system expediently includes different latching feet, for example for placing on different mounting rails or other support elements.

Das in der Figur 1 dargestellte anreihbare Einbaugehäuse besteht im wesentlichen aus einem Gehäuseboden 1 und einem die Schmalseiten des Einbaugehäuses definierenden Rahmen 2, der an seiner Schmaloberseite mit Durchtrittsöffnungen 3 für aus dem Einbaugehäuse herauszuführende Anschlußelemente versehen ist.The stackable installation housing shown in FIG. 1 essentially consists of a housing base 1 and a
Zum Verschließen des Einbaugehäuses ist gemäß Figur 2 ein seitlicher Deckel vorgesehen, der mit Rastzapfen in Rastbohrungen 4 des Einbaugehäuses festgesetzt werden kann.To close the installation housing, a side cover is provided according to FIG. 2, which can be fixed with locking pins in locking bores 4 of the installation housing.
In dem von den genannten, aus Isolierstoff bestehenden Teilen des Einbaugehäuses definierten Einbauraum ist nun an vorbestimmter Stelle ein System von Halterungen vorgesehen, das der Aufnahme und Festlegung einzelner Bauteile bzw. Baugruppen von Relais dient. Insbesondere ist in dem Einbauraum ein etwa L-förmiger Halterahmen 5 vorgesehen, von dem diverse Haltestege 7 vorstehen und der in seinem Winkelbereich eine Schulter 8 definiert.In the installation space defined by the parts of the installation housing made of insulating material, a system of brackets is now provided at a predetermined location, which serves to accommodate and fix individual components or assemblies of relays. In particular, an approximately L-

Der Halterahmen 5 hat Durchbrechungen 9.The L-
Der Deckel kann auf der Innenseite entweder völlig eben ausgeführt sein, oder, wie in Figur 2 dargestellt, auch Durchtrittsöffnungen 3 sowie halterungselemente, wie einen Halterahmen 5, Haltestege 6, 7 und eine Schulter 8 aufweisen.The lid can either be completely flat on the inside or, as shown in FIG. 2, also have
Im Zusammenhang mit Figur 1 ist dargestellt, daß beispielsweise die weiteren Haltestege 7, die sich an dem L-förmigen Halterahmen befinden, Durchtrittsschlitze haben, in denen ein Betätigungsschieber 10 beweglich angeordnet ist, der an seinem einen Ende mit dem Betätigungshebel 11 zusammenwirkt, der seinerseits am Spulenkörper 12 angelenkt ist, wobei der Betätigungssschieber 10 mit seinem anderen Ende auf einen Kontaktfedersatz 13 einwirkt. Im Einbauraum des Einbaugehäuses 1 sind ferner an vorgegebener Stelle, konkret im Bereich der entsprechenden oberen Ecke des Einbaugehäuses, Halteschlitze 14 gebildet, in die die Kontaktfedersätze 13 eingesetzt werden können.In connection with Figure 1 it is shown that, for example, the
Um eine besonders sichere Lagefixierung des Spulenkörpers 13 zu gewährleisten, können zusätzliche Rasthaken 15 vorgesehen werden. Dies führt auch bei der Einbrnung des Spulenkörpers 13 zu einer sehr guten Vorfixierung und erleichtert insgesamt die Montagearbeiten.In order to ensure a particularly secure position fixation of the coil former 13,
Wie die Anschauung der Figur 1 zeigt, ergibt sich eine sehr raumsparende Unterbringungsmöglichkeit für die Funktionselemente der Relais, deren einzelne Bauelemente im übrigen im Bedarfsfall für sich genommen ausgewechselt werden können.As the view in FIG. 1 shows, there is a very space-saving accommodation option for the functional elements of the relays, the individual components of which can be replaced on their own if necessary.

In einer besonders vorteilhaften, da baulich einfachen Ausgestaltung geschieht dies nicht durch Einlegen von Leiterplattenabschnitten, sondern durch eine direkte Beschichtung der Innenfläche des Gehäusebodens 1 des Einbaugehäuses mit Leiterbahnen, was in Figur 1 durch die dickrandige Umrahmung des hierfür zur Verfügung stehenden Flächenabschnittes des Gehäusebodens 1 illustriert ist. Auf diesen Leiterbahnen können dann die gewünschten elektrisch/elektronischen Bauelemente 16, 17, 18, 19 in Oberflächenmontagetechnik aufgebracht wie sie für die Beschaltung der Spule des Relais und/oder des Steuerkreises mit den Kontaktfedersätzen 13 benötigt werden.The free space can advantageously be used to accommodate a circuit by means of electrical / electronic components both for the excitation circuit of the coil of the relay and, if appropriate, also for the control circuit including the contact spring sets in the installation housing. In a particularly advantageous, structurally simple embodiment, this is not done by inserting printed circuit board sections, but by directly coating the inner surface of the housing base 1 of the installation housing with conductor tracks, which is illustrated in FIG. 1 by the thick-edged frame of the surface section of the housing base 1 available for this purpose is.

Eine derartig sehr weitgehende Vorfertigung des Einbaugehäuses mit darin angeordnetem Relais für die verschiedensten Anwendungsfälle, unter Ersparung erheblicher Verdrahtungsarbeit für den Anwender, wird dadurch ermöglicht, daß durch die Halterung an vorbestimmter Stelle sowie die vorgegebene Lage der aus dem Rahmen 2 des Einbaugehäuses herauszuführenden Anschlußelemente die jeweiligen Raumlagen vorgegeben sind.Such a very extensive prefabrication of the built-in housing with a relay arranged therein for a wide variety of applications, while saving considerable wiring work for the user, is made possible by the fact that the respective connection elements can be brought out from the
Im Zusammenhang mit Figur 1 ist eine vorteilhafte Ausführungsform illustriert, gemäß der die aus dem Rahmen 2 des Einbaugehäuses herauszuführenden Anschlußelemente Steckfahnen 20 sind. Dies bewirkt, daß man mit Hilfe eines auf die Oberseite des Einbaugehäuses aufzusetzenden Steck-Anschlußadapters 21 sich in einfacher Weise den jeweils gewünschten Anschlußbedingungen anpassen kann, wenn man Steckanschlußadapter bevorratet, die in ihrem Inneren die jeweils gewünschte Anschlußart für die anzuschließenden Leiter aufweisen.
