Universal Shield Terminal Support Frame for EMC Wiring
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Existing support brackets for shield clamps are limited in their universality, as they are often designed for specific types or sizes of connection terminals and are not stable or space-efficient, especially in control cabinets, making them unsuitable for use with various terminal sizes and in confined spaces.
Innovation Solution
A support frame with a base body featuring a receiving device that allows the busbar to be fixed in any angular position relative to its longitudinal axis, enabling secure attachment to mounting rails of different sizes and heights, and a fixing device that secures the busbar in these positions, allowing for flexible cable management and EMC-compliant wiring.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Adaptability or versatility
If the support bracket is designed for specific types or sizes of connection terminals, then it can provide stable fixation, but it loses universality and cannot accommodate various terminal sizes
Solution Approach 1:
The support bracket is designed with a receiving device that can accommodate busbars of different sizes and angular positions, making it universally applicable to various connection terminal types while maintaining stable fixation through the fixing device
2Adaptability or versatility
If the busbar is fixed at a variable distance and height from the mounting rail, then it can accommodate different terminal sizes, but the complicated mechanics reduce stability and require more space
Solution Approach 1:
The receiving device allows the busbar to be fixed in any angular position rotated about its longitudinal axis, adding an angular dimension to the fixation options without requiring complex height and distance adjustment mechanisms
3Adaptability or versatility
If the busbar is fixed at a variable distance and height from the mounting rail, then it can accommodate different terminal sizes, but it requires more space which is not available in control cabinets
Solution Approach 1:
By enabling angular positioning of the busbar around its longitudinal axis, the invention provides adjustment capability in the angular dimension rather than requiring additional linear space, making it suitable for confined control cabinet environments
