Publication number: 20240195102Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a high-frequency plug connection for high-frequency-based field devices, consisting of plugs and corresponding sockets. The high-frequency plug connection is characterized in that the at least one plug is resiliently enclosed by an enclosure such that this/these plug(s) is/are moveable radially with respect to its/their plugging axis. This has the advantage of reducing the risk of jamming against the enclosure when the plugs are inserted in the corresponding sockets, during fastening of the circuit board substrate on which the sockets are arranged. A modular design of the high-frequency-based field device, and the manufacturability thereof, are simplified as a result.Type: ApplicationFiled: April 8, 2022Publication date: June 13, 2024Inventors: Markus Beissert, Frank Voigt, Thilo Ihringer

Patent number: 10480969Abstract: A field device of measuring- and automation technology, which field device meets requirements for operation in explosion-endangered environments. Safe operation of the field device in explosion-endangered environments is assured by a pluggable connector coupling for electrical coupling of different field device components. An essential feature of the pluggable connector coupling is a sealing element for spatial and gas-tight sealing of a contact region of contacting elements of the pluggable connector coupling from a free volume remaining in the pluggable connector coupling.Type: GrantFiled: March 13, 2017Date of Patent: November 19, 2019Assignee: ENDRESS + HAUSER FLOWTEC AGInventors: Nikolai Fink, Frank Bonschab, Markus Beissert

Publication number: 20110317390Abstract: An electronics housing comprises a housing basic body having a cavity, especially a single cavity. The housing basic body includes a side wall laterally bordering the cavity, an open end and a rear wall bounding the cavity on an end lying opposite the open end and remote therefrom. Also included is a housing lid releasably connected to the housing basic body on the open end and sealing the housing basic body; and an intermediate floor. The intermediate floor, in the case of the electronics housing of the invention, forms: a gap extending between an inner surface of the side wall of the housing basic body and a lateral surface of the intermediate floor facing the inner surface; and two housing chambers in the cavity of the housing basic body separated from one another by the intermediate floor. A first housing chamber is arranged on a first side of the intermediate floor facing the housing lid and a second housing chamber is arranged on a second side of the intermediate floor facing away from the housing lid.Type: ApplicationFiled: June 21, 2011Publication date: December 29, 2011Applicant: Endress + Hauser Flowtec AGInventors: Thierry Moser, Ole Koudal, Nikolai Fink, Roland Unterseh, Markus Beissert, Frank Bonschab, Gernot Engstler
