Abstract
Official abstract text for this publication.
A mounting rail bus system for supplying power voltage and data signals to a plurality of modules, including a plurality of longitudinally-arranged bus devices mounting the modules in parallel spaced transverse relation on a mounting rail, each of the bus devices including a printed circuit board having parallel strip conductors for transmitting data signals, and a pair of power contact pins for transmitting a power voltage, characterized by the provision of a plurality of generally L-shaped double bushing contact elements have module bush segments for respectively connecting the strip conductors and the contact pins of the bus device with the associated module, and orthogonally arranged partner bush segments for connecting together the strip conductors and pin contacts of adjacent bus devices, respectively, whereby power voltage and data signals are transmitted from the bus device both to the associated module and to the adjacent partner bus device.
First claim
Opening claim text (preview).
What is claimed is: 1. A mounting rail bus system for supplying power voltage and data signals to a rail-mounted module ( 4 ), comprising: (a) a generally U-shaped top-hat mounting rail ( 2 ); (b) at least two generally rectangular electronic modules ( 4 ); (c) a plurality of bus devices ( 6 ) operable to mount said modules in parallel spaced transverse relation on said mounting rail at a given bus station ( 3 ), respectively, each of said bus devices including: (1) a printed…
