Description

La présente invention se rapporte au domaine des dispositifs de raccordement et/ou de liaison électrique, notamment des blocs de jonction; plus particulièrement l'invention concerne un système porte-repère pour un ou plusieurs blocs de jonction, comprenant un ou plusieurs dispositifs porte-repère pour autant de bloc de jonction et un élément de fixation disposé sur le ou les blocs de jonction Des systèmes porte-repères de l'art antérieur sont connus des documents WO2015/061191 et FR2724250 . WO2015/061191 divulgue notamment un système porte-repère pour bloc de jonction électrique comprenant un dispositif porte-repère longitudinal selon une direction d'extension, avec une première extrémité dans la direction d'extension et une deuxième extrémité dans la direction opposée à la direction d'extension, le système comprenant un premier élément de fixation configuré pour être disposé sur le bloc de jonction, la première extrémité étant configurée pour coopérer avec le premier élément de fixation de manière amovible et selon une liaison rotative, entre une première position dans laquelle une première face du dispositif porte-repère est orientée vers le bloc de jonction et une deuxième face du dispositif porte-repère est orientée dans une direction opposée au bloc de jonction, et une deuxième position dans laquelle la première face du dispositif porte-repère est orientée dans une direction opposée au bloc de jonction et la deuxième face du dispositif porte-repère est orientée vers le bloc de jonction.The present invention relates to the field of connection devices and / or electrical connection, in particular terminal blocks; more particularly the invention relates to a marker holder system for one or more terminal blocks, comprising one or more marker holder devices for as many terminal block and a fastening element arranged on the terminal block (s). references of the prior art are known from documents WO2015 / 061191 and FR2724250 . WO2015 / 061191 discloses in particular a marker holder system for an electrical terminal block comprising a longitudinal marker holder device in a direction of extension, with a first end in the direction of extension and a second end in the direction opposite to the direction of extension , the system comprising a first fixing element configured to be disposed on the terminal block, the first end being configured to cooperate with the first fixing element in a removable manner and in a rotary connection, between a first position in which a first face of the marker carrier is oriented toward the terminal block and a second face of the marker carrier is oriented in a direction opposite to the terminal block, and a second position in which the first face of the marker carrier is oriented in a direction opposite to the terminal block, and a second position in which the first face of the marker carrier is oriented in a direction direction opposite to the junction block and the second face of the marker holder is oriented towards the jon block ction.

Il est connu de clipser sur un bloc de jonction un dispositif destiné à réceptionner un repère qui porte une référence identique à la référence placée sur un repère lui-même clipsé sur un câble électrique raccordé à ce bloc de jonction. Ces dispositifs connus ne permettent néanmoins pas d'utiliser de manière simple un même dispositif pour repérer deux éléments distincts. Ils ne permettent pas non plus d'assurer, en même temps que la fonction de repérage, une fonction de protection ou de fermeture de certaines ouvertures formées dans le bloc de jonction et destinées à recevoir des éléments particuliers de liaison entre bloc de jonction ou des câbles. La configuration de ces dispositifs doit en outre pouvoir être facilement adaptée au besoin, en terme de dimension notamment, mais également en considérant les modes de fixation existants sur les blocs de jonction en service.It is known practice to clip onto a junction block a device intended to receive a mark which bears a reference identical to the reference placed on a mark itself clipped onto an electric cable connected to this junction block. However, these known devices do not allow the same device to be used in a simple manner to identify two distinct elements. They also do not make it possible to ensure, at the same time as the marking function, a function of protecting or closing certain openings formed in the terminal block and intended to receive particular elements of connection between terminal block or cables. The configuration of these devices must also be able to be easily adapted to the need, in terms of dimension in particular, but also by considering the existing methods of fixing on the terminal blocks in service.

L'invention a donc pour but de proposer une solution simple à tout ou partie de ces problèmes.The aim of the invention is therefore to propose a simple solution to all or part of these problems.

A cet effet, la présente invention porte sur un système porte-repère pour bloc de jonction électrique selon la revendication 1, comprenant entre autres un dispositif porte-repère longitudinal selon une direction d'extension, avec une première extrémité dans la direction d'extension et une deuxième extrémité dans la direction opposée à la direction d'extension, le système comprenant un premier élément de fixation configuré pour être disposé sur le bloc de jonction, la première extrémité et la deuxième extrémité étant configurées pour coopérer avec le premier élément de fixation de manière amovible et selon une liaison rotative, entre une première position dans laquelle une première face du dispositif porte-repère est orientée vers le bloc de jonction et une deuxième face du dispositif porte-repère est orientée dans une direction opposée au bloc de jonction, et une deuxième position dans laquelle la première face du dispositif porte-repère est orientée dans une direction opposée au bloc de jonction et la deuxième face du dispositif porte-repère est orientée vers le bloc de jonction.To this end, the present invention relates to a marker holder system for an electrical terminal block according to claim 1, comprising inter alia a longitudinal marker holder device in an extension direction, with a first end in the extension direction. and a second end in the direction opposite to the direction of extension, the system comprising a first fastener configured to be disposed on the terminal block, the first end and the second end being configured to cooperate with the first fastener removably and in a rotary connection, between a first position in which a first face of the marker holder is oriented towards the junction block and a second face of the marker holder is oriented in a direction opposite to the junction block, and a second position in which the first face of the marker holder is oriented in a direction opposite to the terminal block and the second face of the marker holder device is oriented towards the terminal block.

Selon une deuxième utilisation du dispositif porte-repère 1, celui-ci peut fermer, dans l'une de ses deux positions, une ouverture 14 aménagée dans le bloc de liaison 11, et lorsque l'ouverture 14 doit recevoir, conformément à sa destination, un élément de liaison ou un connecteur débrochable 13, le dispositif porte-repère 1 peut s'ouvrir, comme cela est illustré en figure 5, pour laisser passer l'élément de liaison ou le connecteur débrochable 13, puis à nouveau se refermer pour couvrir et protéger cet élément de liaison ou ce connecteur débrochable 13 après son insertion dans l'ouverture 14, comme cela est illustré en figure 4.According to a second use of the marker holder device 1, the latter can close, in one of its two positions, an opening 14 made in the connecting block 11, and when the opening 14 is to receive, in accordance with its destination , a connecting element or a removable connector 13, the marker holder device 1 can be opened, as illustrated in figure 5 , to allow the connecting element or the removable connector 13 to pass, then close again to cover and protect this connecting element or this removable connector 13 after it has been inserted into the opening 14, as illustrated in figure 4 .

Le dispositif porte-repère 1 illustré sur la figure 1 peut être fixé par ces deux extrémités 2a et 2b simultanément sur le bloc de jonction 11, sous-réserve que celui-ci soit muni de deux éléments de fixation 12 correspondants aux éléments cylindriques 3 situés à chaque extrémité 2a et 2b. Dans ce cas, le dispositif porte-repère 1 n'est plus mobile en rotation.The marker holder device 1 illustrated on figure 1 can be fixed by these two ends 2a and 2b simultaneously on the junction block 11, provided that the latter is provided with two fixing elements 12 corresponding to the cylindrical elements 3 located at each end 2a and 2b. In this case, the marker holder device 1 is no longer mobile in rotation.

Selon une variante du dispositif porte-repère 1, celui-ci comporte au niveau de sa partie centrale une portion amincie 4, située entre les deux extrémités 2a et 2b du dispositif porte-repère 1, de sorte que le dispositif porte-repère 1 est sécable en deux partie, qui chacune peut devenir un dispositif porte-repère, avec toutefois une dimension selon la direction d'extension plus courte que celle du dispositif porte-repère 1 initial. Chaque dispositif porte-repère issue de cette séparation en deux parties est alors muni d'une seule extrémité qui peut être fixée au bloc de jonction selon une liaison rotative similaire à celle décrite plus haut pour le dispositif porte-repère 1 selon le premier mode de réalisation.According to a variant of the marker holder device 1, the latter comprises at its central part a thinned portion 4, located between the two ends 2a and 2b of the marker holder device 1, so that the marker holder device 1 is breakable into two parts, each of which can become a marker holder device, however with a dimension in the direction of extension that is shorter than that of the initial marker holder device 1. Each marker holder device resulting from this separation into two parts is then provided with a single end which can be fixed to the junction block according to a rotary connection similar to that described above for the marker holder device 1 according to the first method of production.

Comme l'indique les figures 4 et 5, les dispositifs porte-repères peuvent être utilisé non seulement individuellement, mais également groupés selon des arrangements linéaires 10 pouvant réunir un nombre indéterminé de dispositifs porte-repère 1, et destinés à être montés sur autant de blocs de jonction correspondants réuni ensemble. L'invention concerne donc aussi un arrangement 10 d'une pluralité de systèmes porte-repère selon l'une des variantes décrites ci-dessus, pour une pluralité de blocs de jonction, chaque système porte-repère de la pluralité de systèmes porte-repère comprenant un dispositif porte-repère 1 et le ou les éléments de fixation 12 configurés pour être disposés sur un bloc de jonction 11 correspondant de la pluralité de blocs de jonction ; les dispositifs porte-repère 1 de la pluralité de système porte-repère étant alignés selon une direction transversale à la direction d'extension d'un des dispositifs, chaque dispositif porte-repère 1 étant solidairement attaché aux dispositifs porte-repère 1 voisins, situés de chaque côté de ce dispositif porte-repère 1 ; le ou les éléments de fixation 12 disposés sur le bloc de jonction étant alignés de manière correspondante à l'alignement des extrémités 2a ou des extrémités 2b des dispositifs portes-repère 1.As indicated by figures 4 and 5 , the marker carriers can be used not only individually, but also grouped according to linear arrangements 10 which can bring together an indefinite number of marker carriers 1, and intended to be mounted on as many corresponding terminal blocks reunited together. The invention therefore also relates to an arrangement 10 of a plurality of marker holder systems according to one of the variants described above, for a plurality of terminal blocks, each marker holder system of the plurality of marker holder systems. comprising a marker holder device 1 and the fixing element (s) 12 configured to be disposed on a corresponding terminal block 11 of the plurality of terminal blocks; the marker holder devices 1 of the plurality of marker holder systems being aligned in a direction transverse to the direction of extension of one of the devices, each marker holder device 1 being integrally attached to the neighboring marker holder devices 1, located on each side of this marker holder device 1; the fixing element or elements 12 arranged on the junction block being aligned correspondingly to the alignment of the ends 2a or of the ends 2b of the marker carriers 1.
