Definitions
- the present invention relates generally to distributors of the kind comprising two flanges, of insulating material, which, arranged at distance from each other, extend substantially parallel to each other, and at least one connection strip, which extends longitudinally from one to the other of these two flanges, substantially perpendicular to them, in being respectively engaged transversely with each of these flanges at each of its ends.
- modules i.e. distributors which, with other electrical devices, are intended to be arranged side by side on the same support rail, and whose length is one multiple of a basic module common to all these electrical devices.
- connection strip (s) which equip them each include, in the form of a bar, a connecting strip, of metal, which forms, longitudinally, from place to place, several connection terminals, and at which it can possibly be associated, for example in the form general of a terminal block, a protective body, made of insulating material, which surrounds it, transversely, over at least part of its periphery.
- connection strip makes it possible to connect to the same potential various electrical conductors.
- splitters of this type are bipolar splitters, and they then comprise, parallel to each other, two bars of connection, i.e., one phase, and the other neutral, or three-pole or four-pole distributors, and they then comprise, in parallel to each other, three or four connection strips, namely, by example, two or three phase, and one neutral, or, more general, multipole distributors.
- the present invention generally relates to a provision making it possible to avoid these disadvantages in a simple manner.
- a distributor of the kind comprising two flanges, of insulating material, which, arranged at a distance from one of the other, extend substantially parallel to each other, and at least one connection strip, which extends longitudinally from one to the other of these two flanges, being respectively engaged transversely with each of these flanges at each of its ends,
- this distributor being of a generally characterized in that, with each of its flanges, is associated a cheek, which, in cooperation with the cheek associated with the other flange, is capable of allow, on request, the installation of a connection strip additional.
- each of flanges is equipped in advance with the associated cheek, and this is movable ascent between two positions, one waiting, for which it extends for example substantially perpendicular to such a flange, the other of service, for which, on the contrary, it extends substantially in the extension of it.
- connection capacity of the distributor according to the invention can, if necessary, be advantageously increased, at the discretion of the installer, without any intervention on the very location of this distributor or its overall length, which limits the necessary operations, and without any discomfort for the wiring surrounding.
- the distributor 10 comprises, overall, on the one hand, two flanges 11, of insulating material, which, arranged at a distance from each other, extend substantially parallel to each other, and, on the other hand, at least one connection strip 12, which extends longitudinally from one to the other of these two flanges 11, substantially perpendicular to them, being respectively engaged transversely with each of these flanges 11 to each of its ends.
- this distributor 10 is of the type described in the French patent application No 95 14769 mentioned above.
- the flanges 11, which are identical to each other, according to a mirror-type symmetry, have, in elevation, a generally rectangular overall contour, with two lateral edges 13, 14, one front, the other rear, an upper edge 15 and a lower edge 16.
- connection bars 12 are provided, at a distance from each other.
- connection bars formed of a bar, in metal, which forms, by itself, staggered along its length, several terminals connection, and with which it is associated, over its entire length, a body of insulation protection limited, in this case, to a simple partition in square.
- connection bars 12 could equally each be made up of a terminal block in which the protective body in insulating material associated with their bar envelops it on all its faces.
- each of the flanges 11 has, from place to place, projecting from its internal surface, and correspondingly one with the other, for the installation of the connection bars 12, end pieces 18, each of which forms a housing 19 suitable for receiving a such connection strip 12, and for the benefit of each of which intervene fixing means, and, for example, latching means, clean when retaining this connection strip 12.
- each of the flanges 11 is associated with a cheek 20, which, in cooperation with the cheek 20 associated with the other flange 11, is capable of allow, on request, the installation of a 12 'connection strip additional, as shown in dashed lines in FIG. 2, and such as shown, in part, in solid lines in FIG. 6.
- each of the flanges 11 is equipped in advance with the cheek 20 which associated with it.
- this cheek 20 is integral with the flange 11 with which it is associated.
- the cheek 20 associated with a flange 11 is, like this one, in insulating material, and it is in one piece with this flange 11, not forming only one and the same piece with this one.
- the cheek 20 associated with a flange 11 is mounted movable between two positions, one waiting, which is that shown in Figures 1 to 5, the other service, which is that shown in Figure 6.
- the cheek 20 extends substantially perpendicular to the flange 11 to which it is associated, and, in the service position, it extends substantially in its extension.
- the cheek 20 associated with a flange 11 is articulated to the latter.
- the cheek 20 associated with a flange 11 is connected to the latter by a hinge zone 21 of lesser thickness.
- this hinge zone 21 is formed by a strip having, transversely, a width not negligible, this width being for example substantially of the order of the thickness of the flange 11 and the cheeks 20.
- the cheek 20 associated with a flange 11 extends along one of the lateral edges 13, 14 of this flange 11.
- the cheek 20 associated with a flange 11 does not extends only over a fraction of the height of it.
- the cheek 20 extends only over less half the height of the flange 11.
- releasable retaining means are provided between a cheek 20 and the flange 11 with which it is associated, for maintaining at least of this cheek 20 in the waiting position.
- these retaining means disengageable have a breakable tab 22 connecting the cheek 20 to a console 23 provided for this purpose projecting from the flange 11.
- this breakable tab 22 which is of reduced thickness, extends only over a fraction of the length of the console 23, from the free edge thereof.
- the cheek 20 associated with each of the flanges 11 has reception means 25.
- connection strip 12 ' is a terminal block whose protective body 26, which is made of insulating material, forms, at each of its ends, a nozzle 27 which, in section longitudinal, is generally T-shaped.
- the reception means 25 that the cheek 20 presents in correspondence associated with a flange 11 have a notch 28 specific to the engagement of such a nozzle 27.
- This notch 28 extends parallel to the lateral edges 13, 14 of the flange 11, and opens on the side of its upper edge 15.
- the notch 28 comprises, in protruding inwards, on at least one of its own lateral edges 29, and, in practice, on each of these, in the vicinity of its outlet 30, a notch latching 31 preceded by an engagement chamfer 32.
- It further comprises, projecting from its bottom 33, in the middle zone of it, a lug 34.
- the cheek 20 associated with each of the flanges 11 is molded in position waiting together with this one.
- connection strips be added 12 an additional 12 'connection strip
- the installer only needs to sever the breakable tab 22 ensuring until then the maintenance in position of the cheeks 20, and, by pivoting them 90 ° around their hinge zone 21, to bring them into the service position for which, parallel to each other, they each extend respectively in the extension of the flanges 11.
- this additional 12 'connection strip proves to be superfluous, it is possible to remove it, and it is also possible, if desired, proceed to an elimination of the cheeks 20, by a rupture of their hinge area 21.
