Distribution strip
The invention relates to a distribution strip for distributing electrical energy for equipment, device and/or server cabinets. The distribution strip has an inner chamber which is defined by an upper, lower, two lateral side faces and two end faces. A feed cable is provided on one of the end faces. An end face forms, with a side face, an inner angle of greater than 105°.
1. A distribution strip for distributing electrical energy for device and/or server cabinets, comprising:
an upper, a lower and two lateral elongated side faces and a first and a second end face, which define an inner chamber;
a feed cable provided on the first end face for supplying electrical energy and a plurality of connecting means provided on the upper side face, to which electrical consumers can be connected for the energy supply; and
wherein the first end face forms, with a side face, an inner angle of greater than 105°;
wherein a depression is formed in the first end face, and a passage opening into the inner chamber is formed for the feed cable in a bottom region of the depression; and
wherein the depression is tapered;
wherein the passage opening is larger than the feed cable; and
wherein a flexible sealing sleeve that surrounds the feed cable is provided in a region of the passage opening for providing movability of the feed cable inside the passage opening.
2. The distribution strip according to claim 1 ,
wherein:
a form of the inner chamber corresponds substantially to that of an elongated cuboid with a wedge element positioned on an end face.
3. The distribution strip according to claim 1 , wherein:
the upper side face is formed to be shorter than the lower side face lying opposite thereto.
4. The distribution strip according to claim 1 , wherein:
the depression extends as far as the side face.
5. The distribution strip according to claim 1 , wherein:
the depression has a rounded convex form.
6. The distribution strip according to claim 1 , wherein:
the feed cable extends perpendicularly through the first end face.
7. The distribution strip according to claim 1 , wherein:
a slot-form clamping means is respectively formed in a contact region between the lower side face and the first and the second end faces.
8. The distribution strip according to claim 7 , wherein:
a first and a second fixing means are provided in the clamping means for fixing the distribution strip in a device and/or server cabinet.
9. A distribution strip according to claim 8 wherein:
the first fixing means can be inserted into a first groove of the device and/or server cabinet; and
the second fixing means is formed so that it can engage by means of spring force in a second groove, lying opposite the first groove, of the device and/or server cabinet.
10. The distribution strip according to claim 9 , wherein:
the second fixing means is formed projecting away from the distribution strip; and
the second fixing means is formed so that it can be compressed against a spring force in the direction of the distribution strip.
11. The distribution strip according to claim 1 , wherein:
the distribution strip has essentially a length for vertical fixing in a device and/or server cabinet.
