  • Patent number: 9504180
    Abstract: A mounting system (1) arranges electric devices (2), especially in switchgear cabinets. The mounting system (1) includes at least one preferably horizontal mounting strip (3) to which at least one device (2) can be secured. An ordering assembly (8) can be connected to the mounting strip (3) and used for ordering the connecting wires (34, 35) of the device (2) to be secured to the mounting strip (3). Ordering assembly (8) has a plurality of ordering segments (7, 9, 11) along the longitudinal direction of the mounting strip (3). The ordering segments are interconnected or rest against one another. One or more ordering segments (7, 9, 11) can be selectively detached from the ordering assembly (8) and can be removed from ordering assembly (8) to leave a gap (8) or be replaced by another ordering segment (7, 9, 11).

  • Publication number: 20150181742
    Abstract: The invention relates to a mounting system (1) for arranging electric devices (2), for example, especially in switchgear cabinets. Said mounting system (1) comprises at least one preferably horizontal mounting strip (3) to which at least one device (2) can be secured. The mounting system (1) further comprises an ordering means (8) which can be connected to the mounting strip (3) and is used for ordering the connecting wires (34, 35) of the device (2) that is to be secured to the mounting strip (3). The invention is characterized in that the ordering means (8) has a plurality of ordering segments (7, 9, 11) along the longitudinal direction of the mounting strip (3), said ordering segments being interconnected or resting against one another, and in that one or more ordering segments (7, 9, 11) can be selectively detached from the ordering means (8) add be removed therefrom (8) to as to leave a gap therein (8) or be replaced by another ordering segment (7, 9, 11).

  • Patent number: 6422350
    Abstract: A definite switching-off of drive equipment for elevators is accomplished with a control at an input side external of a frequency changer power unit that ascertains the presence or the absence of monitoring signals which are derived from the mains voltage at the input of the frequency changer power unit. Upon ascertaining the presence of one or more such signals when the drive is at standstill, the input side control interrupts the energy flow to the frequency changer power unit by generating a switching-off signal to a switching device to disconnect the mains voltage.
