Abstract: A device for electrically connecting the frame of a switching cabinet in which the cabinet housing is connected to the door by contact elements which are thereby electrically connected to the frame sections of the frame-like borders of the cabinet housing facing the door and are supported resiliently as well as electrically against the closed door. Specially designed contact springs can be used to create contacts between a subsequently fitted standard switching cabinet provided with a surface protection layer and the frame or cabinet housing in the door closure area.

Abstract: A rack for a switching cabinet which can be enclosed by side walls, at least one door and a cover and comprises a lower and upper frame which can be connected by frame profiles running vertically. The upper frame has vertical and horizontal struts running horizontally. The vertical and lateral struts include channels where water that runs off from the cover can be collected and drained. Water can then be drained off from the corner areas of the upper frame in a controlled manner if the outlet channels of adjacent vertical and horizontal struts are brought together and fed to a flume of the vertical frame piece.

Abstract: The invention relates to a device for fitting a control panel to the lower front edge of a control device. To provide the connection there are specially shaped corner pieces provided with screw sleeves which are inserted into screw apertures in the frame and secured therein by screws.

Abstract: A switchgear cubicle with a frame having individual framing sections and/or framing sections folded against cladding components, the open sides of which are covered or can be closed off by cladding components and a door. The framing sections and the cladding components are painted and the framing sections have at least one row of square or rectangular securing apertures on one side directed perpendicularly to the facing cladding component. An electrical connection between the cladding component and the frames is accomplished with U-shaped spring components which are secured in an aperture, supported on the components to be interconnected by spring-loaded claws and penetrate the paint coatings.

Abstract: A framework made of frame pieces for a switchgear cabinet, wherein the frame pieces are preferably laterally reversed in relation to their cross-sectional diagonal and have profiled sides perpendicular to the outer sides of the framework and have fastening recesses. In an area of an inner side, the profiled sides end in sections that form a recess for fastening mounting rails. By combining several known and novel features, a framework having easily manufactured frame pieces is created which optimally meets all requirements for use with a switchgear cabinet.

Abstract: A switchgear cabinet with a cabinet door and/or wall elements and a cover element covering the top, wherein a rain deflection device is disposed in the transition area between the upper horizontal edge of the cabinet door and/or the wall elements and the cover element. The removal of the collecting rainwater is possible with little structural effort in that in the transition area between the cabinet door and/or the wall elements and the cover element, a run-off channel is formed on the cover element or the cabinet door (wall element), and the cover element and/or the cabinet door (wall element) have guide devices, which guide the collecting water into the run-off channel.

Abstract: A frame structure assembled from frame limbs for a switch gear cabinet, in which the frame limbs are preferably designed in mirror-image like manner in relation to their cross-sectional diagonals and in the interior region of the frame structure comprise two receiving formations, having fastening rebates for fastening mounting rails. The receiving formations are orientated parallel to associated exterior sides of the frame structure. The interconnection of frame limbs and mounting rails is simplified and improved because the receiving formations pass into terminal sections, bent over once or twice, forming an open dovetail groove or a closed dovetail groove for fixing the mounting rails that have appropriate engagement formations.

Abstract: A rotary coupling for connecting a control device housing to a support arm or an elbow of a support arm system, having a rotating ring fixedly connected to the control device housing and partially rotatable in relation to a coupling piece which is connected to the support arm or the elbow. For equalization of tolerances caused by insufficient twist rigidity of the support arm system, the invention provides that the coupling piece forms a peripheral bearing ring which is convexly arched outwardly and is received in and supported by two shell rings. The shell rings are connected to each other and have concavely arched bearing surfaces. The shell rings are rigidly mounted on the bearing ring of the coupling piece by a clamping cheek. The rotating ring is rotatably maintained on the shell rings by a support ring which is connected to the shell rings.
