Abstract

Device for fastening and electrically wiring a plurality of electrical units, particularly in a switching cabinet.

The invention relates to a device (10) for fastening and electrically wiring a plurality of electrical units, particularly in a switching cabinet (1), the device (10) having a mounting element (14) with one mounting side (16) on which the electrical units can be arranged and fastened, characterized in that the mounting element (14) has a mounting strip (22, 24) which forms the mounting side (16, 20) and which borders the wiring space (18) for wiring the electrical units, and that the wiring space (18) is divided into at least two component spaces (28, 30) by means of a separating element (26) which can be connected to the mounting strip (22, 24).

Claims

1. A device (10) for fastening and electrically wiring a plurality of electrical units, particularly in a switching cabinet (1), the device (10) having a mounting element (14) with one mounting side (16) on which the electrical units can be arranged and fastened, characterized in that the mounting element (14) has a mounting strip (22, 24) which forms the mounting side (16, 20) and which borders the wiring space (18) for wiring the electrical units, and that the wiring space (18) is divided into at least two component spaces (28, 30) by means of a separating element (26) which can be connected to the mounting strip (22, 24).

2. The device (10) according to claim 1, characterized in that the mounting strip (22, 24) has a slot (32) which is open to the mounting side (16, 20) for accommodating fasteners (80) for connecting the mounting strip (22, 24) to the separating element (26).

3. The device (10) according to claim 1, characterized in that the separating element (26) is formed by a preferably flat profile.

4. The device (10) according to claim 1, characterized in that the separating element (26) at the connecting site to the mounting strip (22, 24) has a slot (34) which has grooves (82) and which runs in the longitudinal direction of the separating element (26) for screwing in a fastener (80).

5. The device (10) according to claim 1, characterized in that the separating element (26) has a slide nut channel (52, 54).

6. The device (10) according to claim 1, characterized in that the separating element (26) has openings for passage of wiring from one component space (28, 30) into the adjacent component space (28, 30).

7. The device (10) according to claim 1, characterized in that the mounting element (14) has at least one other mounting side (20) on which electrical units can be arranged and fastened.

8. The device (10) according to claim 7, characterized in that the wiring space (18) is accessible for wiring of electrical units fastened on at least two mounting sides (16, 20) of the mounting element (14).

9. The device (10) according to claim 7, characterized in that electrical units can be arranged and fastened on at least two mounting sides (16, 20) which are opposite one another relative to the longitudinal direction of the mounting element (14).

10. The device according to claim 7, characterized in that the wiring space (18) is located between two mounting sides (16, 20) of the mounting element (14).

11. The device according to claim 7, characterized in that the mounting element (14) forms a hollow profile whose outer sides form the mounting sides (16, 20) and whose cavity forms the wiring space (18).

12. The device according to claim 7, characterized in that the mounting element (14) on all mounting sides (16, 20) has an attachment rail (36) with which the electrical units can be fastened.

13. The device (10) according to claim 12, characterized in that the attachment rail (36) is formed integrally by the mounting element (14), especially is formed integrally by the mounting strip (22, 24) which forms the mounting side (16, 20).

14. The device (10) according to claim 1, characterized in that the mounting element (14) has an opening (48) for access to the wiring space (18) on the outer surface which is aligned obliquely and especially transversely to the mounting side (16, 20).

15. The device (10) according to claim 1, characterized in that the mounting strip (22, 24) has at least one slide nut channel (38, 40), preferably has one slide nut channel (38, 40) each on both sides of the fastening rail (42).

16. The device (10) according to claim 1, characterized in that at least two mounting sides (16, 20) of the mounting element (14) are formed by mounting strips (22, 24) made as identical parts.
