Problems solved by technology

[0009] Because the overall scope of functions of such a modular controller usually requires multiple use of the above-mentioned special terminal modules, corresponding costs are required in the design and ordering as well as in the construction
And especially when extending said control functions after the fact there is a serious disadvantage

Embodiment Construction

[0048] Fig. 1 shows an embodiment of a control system according to the present invention. The control system is composed of a series of terminal modules 1 with connection terminals 14 to which functional modules can be inserted. An interface module 8 with an interface connector 9 is located at the head of the terminal module 1 in the row, and a terminal module 10 forms the end of the row. In this embodiment, the functional components are connected to only two adjacent terminal modules 1 respectively, wherein the width of the functional module corresponds exactly to the width of one terminal module 1. The figure shows three power feed assemblies 2 with three terminals for power feed and PE connection. It can be seen that after the feeder assembly are the bridge assembly 3 and the isolation assembly 4, which are well distinguished based on their different marks 15. In addition, two dedicated components 5 can be seen. Each of the connecting components 6 constitutes the head and the t...

Abstract

The invention relates to a modular control system especially used in the field of industrial automation. The control system is composed of terminal modules and matching function modules. In the known embodiments, which consist of different terminal modules for different functionalities, retrofitting the system can often only be realized at great expense. This technical problem is solved in the modular control system according to the invention by the use of new structurally identical terminal modules, wherein different functionalities are provided by additional functional modules. In addition to making changes to the configuration configuration of the system smoothly, additional advantages are lower costs for design and construction, simpler and error-free pre-assembly of the standard terminal modules, easier maintenance of replacement parts, More clarity with regard to supplying supply voltage, potential transfer and isolation, and special functions as well as simple and clear handling during step-by-step start-up.

Description

Technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a terminal module with wiring terminals. In order to obtain a modular structure of a control system, a functional module can be inserted into the terminal module, wherein the terminal module has contacts on both sides, and these contacts The points are not only electrically connected to each other internally, but also electrically connected to the interface for the functional module. In addition, the present invention relates to a functional component and a control system with a modular structure, the control system having at least two such terminal modules and at least one such functional component. Background technique [0002] Such systems are especially used in the field of industrial automation. Industrial controllers with modular structure are usually subdivided into terminal modules and matching functional modules (digital or analog input or output devices, counters and other different dedicated modules). Therefore, w...
