  • Patent number: 7601013
    Abstract: A connection or device adapter, which can be placed on a mounting unit at right angles with respect to a longitudinal direction of busbars and mechanically connected, one contact element being electrically conductively connected to the facing busbar in a connection or device adapter per busbar and the contact elements in the connection or device adapter being led up to connection receptacles in the region of a narrow side of the connection or device adapter. If the contact elements are formed as contact bars and are electrically conductively connected to one another by the associated connection receptacles and form connection units and for the connection or device adapter to have receptacles for the connection units in the region of a narrow side and to accommodate the contact elements with contact points positioned in relation to the busbars, the complexity in terms of parts and assembly, in particular for the connection or device adapter, is substantially reduced and simplified.

  • Patent number: 7335041
    Abstract: A bus bar support, including a lower part which can be mounted with a lower side thereof to the base. Several bus bars which are disposed in a longitudinal direction and at a distance from each other, are used to insert, in an isolated manner, bush bars extending in a transversal direction and are arranged in an upper side of the lower side. The bush bar support also includes a removable upper part which blocks and closes the bus bars. One object of this invention is to provide bus bars in a simple manner, which are easy to handle and which can adapt in many ways to the bus bars which have various cross sections. As a result, the bus bar support includes separate sliding elements which are used to define the bus bar receiving elements in a direction of thickness extending from the lower side to the upper side. Bearing inserts are used to define the bus bar receiving elements in a direction of width extending in a transverse manner on the longitudinal extension of the inserted bus bars.
