Contact and busbar assembly, electronics housing assembly having such a contact and busbar assembly, and method for removing an electronics housing from such an electronics housing assembly
A contact and busbar assembly forms a bus system on electronics housings arranged in an array direction. Each housing includes a circuit board. The contact and busbar assembly includes multiple bus plugs having first connecting contacts for electrically contacting the circuit boards and second connecting contacts in the form of socket contacts for electrically contacting power rail strips. A plurality of power rail strips electrically connects the second connecting contacts of adjacent electronics housings. A first power rail strip electrically connects the bus plugs of two directly adjacent electronics housings and a second power rail strip of greater length electrically connects two spaced electronics housings. An electronics housing assembly is provided having multiple electronics housings arranged against one another in the array direction and a contact and busbar assembly as set forth above. A method for removing or replacing an electronics housing arranged between two adjacent electronics housings of such an electronics housing assembly is also provided.
TWO WAY AND FOUR WAY CASCADING OPTICAL EXCHANGES PROVIDE TRAFFIC CONTROL FOR VARIETY OF SIGNALS WITH EMPHASIS TO WiFi
A plurality of bidirectional optoports forming plurality of junctions for propagating optical signals two way through a plurality of optically cascaded chains linked to an electrical grid of building unit via intelligent support boxes and four way exchanges to include optical links to the electrical grid via plug-in electrical devices including IoTs and Ai devices and for providing traffic control to optical signals and the many well known other communication signals.
MODULAR LOW PROFILE RACEWAY TO PROVIDE POWER AND/OR DATA CONNECTIVITY
In various implementations, a raceway may be provided that is capable of providing power and/or data connectivity to items (e.g., devices, articles of furniture, etc.) coupled to the raceway. The raceway may be low profile. The raceway may be disposed on floor and/or under floor. The raceway may include an integrated power housing. The raceway may include segments that are selected, as desired for an application configuration, and that are coupleable to each other or other components of the raceway (e.g., nodes, joints, etc.). The housing of component(s) of the raceway may include a base and wall(s) with at least curved section and at least one straight section.
CONNECTOR-ATTACHED CIRCUIT BODY AND BUS BAR MODULE
A connector-attached circuit body include a circuit body including a flexible substrate having a wiring pattern, and a connector attached to the circuit body and including a terminal and a housing that accommodates the terminal. The terminal is electrically connected to the wiring pattern and extends in a thickness direction of the circuit body.
POWER DISTRIBUTION SYSTEM
A power distribution system includes a track having a first end, a second end opposite the first end, and a longitudinal axis extending through the first and second ends. The track defines a channel extending along the longitudinal axis. A plurality of power cables is positioned within the channel. A electrical hub is movably coupled to the second end of the track. The electrical hub is electrically connected to the plurality of power cables and includes a power receptacle. The electrical hub is movable relative to the second end of the track to change a position of the power receptacle relative to the track.
Bus bar header assembly
A header assembly includes a header having a header base. An engagement portion extends from the header base and defines a bus bar space. A header shroud also extends from the header base and defines a terminal space. A terminal opening passes through the header base between the bus bar space and the terminal space. The engagement portion is configured to engage a bus bar and the header shroud is configured to engage an electrical connector.
CONTACT AND BUSBAR ASSEMBLY, ELECTRONICS HOUSING ASSEMBLY HAVING SUCH A CONTACT AND BUSBAR ASSEMBLY, AND METHOD FOR REMOVING AN ELECTRONICS HOUSING FROM SUCH AN ELECTRONICS HOUSING ASSEMBLY
A contact and busbar assembly forms a bus system on electronics housings arranged in an array direction. Each housing includes a circuit board. The contact and busbar assembly includes multiple bus plugs having first connecting contacts for electrically contacting the circuit boards and second connecting contacts in the form of socket contacts for electrically contacting power rail strips. A plurality of power rail strips electrically connects the second connecting contacts of adjacent electronics housings. A first power rail strip electrically connects the bus plugs of two directly adjacent electronics housings and a second power rail strip of greater length electrically connects two spaced electronics housings. An electronics housing assembly is provided having multiple electronics housings arranged against one another in the array direction and a contact and busbar assembly as set forth above. A method for removing or replacing an electronics housing arranged between two adjacent electronics housings of such an electronics housing assembly is also provided.
Chair molding with integrated electrical outlets
The chair molding with integrated electrical outlets is a dabo molding. The chair molding with integrated electrical outlets is configured for use with a vertical surface. The chair molding with integrated electrical outlets mounts on the vertical surface. The chair molding with integrated electrical outlets comprises a molding, a plurality of electrical ports, and an NEG cable. The molding attaches to the vertical surface. The molding contains the plurality of electrical ports. The NEG cable attaches the plurality of electrical ports to an external power source. In the first potential embodiment of the disclosure, the external power source is a national electric grid.
Bus bar clamp
An electrical power distribution system includes a first bus bar and a clamp mounted to the first bus bar. The clamp includes a fixed base and a movable plate that define a track therebetween along a broad face of the first bus bar. The track receives a second bus bar therein such that the broad face of the first bus bar engages a corresponding broad face of the second bus bar. The clamp includes a lever connected to both the movable plate and the first bus bar. Pivoting movement of the lever in a locking direction forces linear movement of the movable plate relative to the first bus bar towards the fixed base such that respective inner sides of the movable plate and the fixed base sandwich the second bus bar therebetween to secure the second bus bar in engagement with the first bus bar.
BUS BAR CLAMP
An electrical power distribution system includes a first bus bar and a clamp mounted to the first bus bar. The clamp includes a fixed base and a movable plate that define a track therebetween along a broad face of the first bus bar. The track receives a second bus bar therein such that the broad face of the first bus bar engages a corresponding broad face of the second bus bar. The clamp includes a lever connected to both the movable plate and the first bus bar. Pivoting movement of the lever in a locking direction forces linear movement of the movable plate relative to the first bus bar towards the fixed base such that respective inner sides of the movable plate and the fixed base sandwich the second bus bar therebetween to secure the second bus bar in engagement with the first bus bar.
