Extruded rail-mount with support leg

InactiveUS6017251AInexpensive and needed stabilityEasy to installElectrically conductive connectionsEngineeringScrew terminal
An extruded rail-mount, for mounting devices to a variety of rails, with a support leg that provides upward support against the forceful pressure exerted when wires are screwed onto screw terminals at the edges of the mounted device. The mount is substantially constant longitudinally. The rail-mount has a thin, plank-like substrate with latitudinally upward arms and downward kinked legs and a downward support leg. The arms have catches to grab onto / support circuit boards or other devices. Kinked legs have catches to grab onto / mount a chosen rail. When the rail-mount is mounted on a rail, the support leg is of a length to support against the surface to which the rail is secured. Because rails are relatively narrow, the mount's utility is such that attachment to a rail provides support to one side of a mounted device and the support leg provides support for the opposite side of the device.

Daisy chaining device servers via Ethernet

A device server intended for attaching serial devices to a network includes Ethernet communications, an Ethernet switch, and serial communication capability so that multiple device servers are connected in a “daisy chain” or series pattern. Galvanic isolation of the power supply from the housing and communication ports, screw terminal and modular connections, DIN rail mounting, broad power supply voltage ranges or “Power-over-Ethernet” and operator visible indicator lamps with a pulse stretching feature greatly simplify installation and use.

In-head converter with display

A typical probe comprises a sensor, and a connection head that includes a conversion circuit for driving the sensor. The probe communicates with a controller via a two wire DC 4-20 mA link. The conversion circuit is also known as a two-wire transmitter. The conversion circuit and the sensor are connected to each other (and to the external link) via screw terminals usually located at the circuit top face. The invention provides a conversion circuit and a matching base forming plug and socket type connections. On the converter circuit, the connections are moved from the top of the circuit, to the bottom of the circuit, thus clearing space for an integral display. The sensor and the link wires are attached to the base socket. The conversion circuit fits into the socket in only a single orientation, thus ensuring correct coupling of the wires to the circuit elements.
