Nach einer vielfach eingesetzten Bauform sind die Module ähnlich wie Reihenklemmen auf Tragschienen aufrastbar und aneinanderreihbar.After a widely used design, the modules are similar to terminal blocks on mounting rails latched and lined up.
Von Modul zu Modul verläuft ein interner Busleiter mit einer oder mehreren Busadern, wobei die Busleiter der zueinander benachbarten Module beim Aneinanderreihen der Module miteinander verbunden werden müssen. Ein derartiger interner Busleiter umfasst eine beliebige Anzahl von Versorgungs- und/oder Signal- bzw. Datenleitungen.From module to module runs an internal bus conductor with one or more bus wires, wherein the bus conductors of the mutually adjacent modules in the juxtaposition of the modules must be connected to each other. Such an internal bus conductor comprises any number of supply and / or signal or data lines.
Zur Verbindung der Busleiter benachbarter bzw. aneinandergereihter Module ist es nach dem Stand der Technik bekannt, die einzelnen Leiter des Busleiters z.B. über Steck- und Buchsenkontakte oder Busschieber miteinander zu verbinden. Ergänzend ist aber oftmals noch eine zusätzliche mechanische Verbindung benachbarter Module über separat zu betätigende bzw. handhabende Rast- oder Koppelelemente notwendig (siehe z.B. die
Die Erfindung hat demgegenüber die Aufgabe, eine Verbindung benachbarter Module zu realisieren, die bei Einsatz einer werkzeugfreien Anschlusstechnik insbesondere auch auf einfache Weise wieder zu lösen sein soll. Darüber hinaus soll nach einer bevorzugten Ausführungsform auch eine zuverlässige mechanische Verbindung benachbarter Module ohne weitere Betätigungen realisiert werden.The invention has the object to realize a connection of adjacent modules, which should be to be solved again in particular when using a tool-free connection technology in a simple manner. In addition, according to a preferred embodiment, a reliable mechanical connection of adjacent modules without further operations are realized.
Die Erfindung erreicht dieses Ziel durch den Gegenstand des Anspruchs 1.The invention achieves this goal by the subject matter of claim 1.
Danach sind die Anschlussvorrichtungen jeweils als Direktsteckklemmen mit Klemmfedern zum werkzeugfreien Beschalten mit den leitenden Brückenelementen ausgebildet und an der Verbindungsbrücke ist wenigstens eine Entriegelungsvorrichtung zum Lösen mehrerer der leitenden Brückenelemente aus den jeweils zugeordneten Klemmfedern der Anschlussvorrichtungen angeordnet.Thereafter, the connection devices are each designed as a direct plug-in terminals with clamping springs for tool-free wiring with the conductive bridge elements and at the connecting bridge at least one unlocking device for releasing a plurality of the conductive bridge elements from the respectively associated clamping springs of the connection devices is arranged.

Zum Lösen der Brückenelemente 12 aus den Klemmstellen 20 dienen hier zunächst Drückelemente 18, wobei jeder Anschlussvorrichtung 6 eines der Drückelemente 18 zugeordnet ist. Diese Drückelemente 18 sind im Klemm- bzw. Metallkäfig 6 oberhalb der Klemmschenkel 9 in Leitereinführrichtung (in der beispielhaften Gebrauchsstellung der
Um eine synchrone Betätigung aller Drückelemente 18 zu gewährleisten, sind am Grundkörper 13 an zwei gegenüberliegenden Seiten des Grundkörpers Bügelwippen 19 schwenkbar gelagert, die in Draufsicht ebenfalls eine U-Form aufweisen und den Grundkörper 13 seitlich von einander gegenüberliegenden Seiten der Module 1, 2 her einfassen. Die beiden Längsschenkel 23 dieser Bügelwippen 19 sind an den Seiten des Grundkörpers 13 schwenkbar gelagert.In order to ensure a synchronous operation of all
Die Grundschenkel 24 der Bügelwippen sind dabei oberhalb der Drückelemente 18 angeordnet (
Derart ist eine synchrone Betätigung aller Betätigungsdrücker bzw. - drücker 18 und ein Lösen aller Klemmschenkel bzw. Klemmfedern gewährleistet. Dies wird im Zusammenspiel der
Da die beiden Längsschenkel 23 der Bügelwippen 19 ergänzend an zwei weiteren Nocken 26 auf den Modulen 1, 2 bzw. deren Gehäusen aufliegen, wird neben dem Lösen der Brückenelemente 12 aus den Klemmstellen 20 in vorteilhafter Weise auch gewährleistet, dass die leitenden Brückenelemente 12 aus den Klemmstellen 20 angehoben werden (
Die Längsschenkel 23 der Bügelwippen sind in sich gestuft bzw. L-förmig aufgebaut, wobei die zweiten Nocken 26 als Drehlager an einer tieferen Stelle am Modulgehäuse der Module 1, 2 aufliegen als die ersten Nocken 25 auf den Betätigungsdrückern 18. Drehlager sind damit die zweiten Nocken 26, während die ersten Nocken 25 als Betätigungsansätze für die Betätigungsdrücker 18 fungieren.The
Die Bügelwippen 19 realisieren also in bevorzugter Ausgestaltung sowohl das Lösen der Brückenelemente 12 aus den Klemmstellen 20 bzw. das Entschalten als auch das Anheben der Brückenelemente 12 aus den Klemmstellen 20. Sie stellen damit eine übergreifende Entriegelungsvorrichtung für die Leiter in den Klemmstellen 20 der Anschlussvorrichtungen an einem Ende des internen Busleiters eines Moduls 1, 2 dar.Thus, in a preferred embodiment, the
Bei vereinfachten Ausführungsformen können die Bügelwippen 19 auch nur die Entschaltungsfunktion übernehmen. Denkbar ist es z.B., dass die Lagerung der Bügelwippen 19 nicht jeweils an zwei Nocken 25, 26 erfolgt sondern dass diese in einer einzigen Nocke zusammenfallen (hier nicht dargestellt).In simplified embodiments, the ironing jacks 19 can only take over the de-switching function. It is conceivable, for example, that the mounting of the bow-

Anzumerken ist noch, dass die Funktion der separaten Betätigungsdrücker 18 bei entsprechender Ausgestaltung der ersten Nocken auch in diese integrierbar ist. Bei einem derartigen Ausführungsbeispiel würden sich dann die ersten Nocken 25 direkt bis an die Klemmstellen heran erstrecken (hier nicht dargestellt).It should also be noted that the function of the separate actuating push-
