Patent number: 8093513Abstract: A device which is used to guide cables or wires through walls. The device includes a maintaining device which is connected to two or more cable maintaining elements that surround, in a frame-like manner, a mounting area which includes a through-opening, and the cable maintaining elements are arranged in the region of the through-openings. According to this invention, the mounting area has a matrix-form and includes at least two mounting lines and at least two mounting gaps which enable the mounting area to be equipped in a simple and easy manner. The mounting lines and the mounting gaps predefine, respectively, a constant modular dimension, and the cable maintaining elements are dimensioned with respect to the width and the longitudinal extension in the direction of the mounting line and direction of the mounting gap, so that the width and the length correspond to a multiple whole number of the modular dimension.Type: GrantFiled: November 15, 2006Date of Patent: January 10, 2012Assignee: Rittal GmbH & Co. KGInventors: Oskar Elm, Matthias Müller, Horst Besserer, Rolf Benner

Patent number: 6401940Abstract: A frame for a switch cabinet, having vertical profiled frame parts, a floor frame and a cover frame. The floor frame and the cover frame are configured as punched, bent parts made of a steel-sheet blank and have a horizontal floor facing the switch cabinet interior on which floor the vertical profiled frame parts are fixed. The floor has a reinforced edge which is bent away from the switch cabinet interior. To be able to assemble this type of frame simply and rapidly, four plug-in protuberances are fixed to the floor of the floor frame and the cover frame, which each have at least one threaded recess. The vertical profiled frame parts have plug-in recesses by which they are inserted onto the plug-in protuberances. The vertical profiled frame parts also have screw holes which are arranged such that they align with the threaded recesses of the plug-in protuberance and fixing screws are threaded into the screw holes and screwed into the threaded recesses.Type: GrantFiled: September 18, 2000Date of Patent: June 11, 2002Assignee: Rittal-Werk Rudolf Loh GmbH & Co.

Patent number: 6190081Abstract: A fastening device for attachment of, for example, mounting rails to vertical frame profiles of a switchgear cabinet. The frame profiles have rows of evenly distributed fastening retainers. A fastening block, which has fastening retainers for connecting the mounting rail or the like, can be added to the frame profile. In order to secure fastening of the mounting rail on the vertical frame profile, which only requires a small outlay of parts, the fastening block is manufactured either as a punched and bent element from a sheet metal blank or as an extruded element. At least one hook element projects from the fastening block, which can be suspended in an associated fastening retainer of the frame profile. The fastening block has two lateral walls, which extend at right angles with respect to each other and form a common vertical inner edge facing the interior of the switchgear cabinet. The lateral walls are equipped with the fastening retainers for connecting the add-on elements.Type: GrantFiled: November 12, 1998Date of Patent: February 20, 2001Assignee: Rittal-Werk Rudolf Loh GmbH & Co.Inventors: Horst Besserer, Marc Hartel, Walter Nicolai

Patent number: 6039420Abstract: A frame composed of horizontal and vertical frame members that form front and back frames, the frames being joined at their corners using depth struts. The invention achieves a simple construction by designing the horizontal and vertical frame members as extruded sections with continuous integral or molded-in fastening grooves and screw sockets, by designing the depth struts as angle sections whose sides together form a right angle and by using fastening screws to screw the frame members meeting at the corners to the sides of the depth struts.Type: GrantFiled: October 9, 1996Date of Patent: March 21, 2000Assignee: Rittal-Werk Rudolf Loh GmbH & Co.

Patent number: 6010023Abstract: A small housing having a lower housing element, a housing cover and two front plates, wherein the lower housing element and the housing cover are embodied as sections of extruded profiles of a U-shaped cross section. The front plates close off the open front faces of the assembled housing, and the lower housing element is connected with the housing cover. The lower housing element has attachment elements for placing the small housing on an attachment surface. A simplified attachment of the small housing on a attachment surface is achieved with longitudinally oriented and undercut attachment strips formed on the exteriors of the lateral walls of the lower housing element. Attachment clamps, which are U-shaped in cross section and which have an undercut receptacle for the attachment strip can be fixed on the attachment strips.Type: GrantFiled: February 26, 1998Date of Patent: January 4, 2000Assignee: Rittal-Werk Rudolf Loh GmbH & Co.

Patent number: 5794895Abstract: A device for securing cables and conduits in switchgear cubicles with a securing bracket which is releasably secured to a support, a plate or a rail in the cubicle, and, to receive the cables and conduits has a bracket section projecting from a securing plate which has an inwardly angled end section which is engaged by a cover section that also projects from the securing plate, leaving an insertion aperture. The device can easily be built into switchgear cubicles using simple parts because a catch bracket is used to engage with the securing plate of the securing bracket and because securing side arms of the catch bracket can engage in suitably spaced and sized engagement slots in the support, the plate or the rail.Type: GrantFiled: March 20, 1997Date of Patent: August 18, 1998Assignee: Rittal-Werk Rudolf Loh GmbH & Co.
