Abstract

Die Erfindung betrifft eine Mehrfachsteckdose mit einem Gehäuse (2) und einer Trägeranordnung (5), welche zusammen mit Kontaktschienen (11) und Kontaktbuchsen sowie einer Schutzkontaktschiene(17) und Schutzkontakten (19) in das Gehäuse einschiebbar oder einsetzbar ist. Zur rationellen Fertigung und zur Verbesserung der Kontaktverbindungen sind die Kontaktschienen als Flachbänder (13,15) mit Federkontaktbuchsen (20,40) und Federbereichen (23,43) ausgebildet, welche an Halte- und Stützbereichen der Trägeranordnung fixierbar und zusammen mit einer gleichfalls vorpositionierten Schutzkontaktschiene stirnseitig in das Gehäuse einschiebbar sind. Eine besonders vorteilhafte Fertigung wird mit einem einteiligen Gehäuse und einer Schutzkontaktschiene mit über Präge- oder Clinchverbindung fixierten Schutzkontaktbügeln erreicht.

The invention relates to a multiple socket with a housing (2) and a carrier arrangement (5) which can be inserted or inserted into the housing together with contact rails (11) and contact sockets as well as a protective contact rail (17) and protective contacts (19). For efficient production and to improve the contact connections, the contact rails are designed as flat strips (13, 15) with spring contact sockets (20, 40) and spring areas (23, 43), which can be fixed to holding and supporting areas of the carrier arrangement and together with a likewise pre-positioned protective contact rail can be inserted into the front of the housing. A particularly advantageous production is achieved with a one-piece housing and a protective contact rail with protective contact clips fixed by means of an embossed or clinched connection.
