Electrical equipment comprising electronic cards
Electrical equipment, in particular for aircraft, comprising: a fixed frame delimiting a storage compartment having a front opening, a pivoting frame mounted to pivot on the fixed frame to occupy a storage position in which it is placed inside the storage compartment of the fixed frame and an accessibility position in which it extends through the front opening of the fixed frame, the pivoting frame delimiting a reception space having at least one access opening, situated behind its front, for the introduction of electronic cards and their removal when the pivoting frame is in said accessibility position in which said access opening is situated in front of said front opening of the fixed frame, the pivoting frame being provided with electrical connection means that can be coupled to electrical connection means of the electronic cards.
1. An electrical equipment, in particular for aircraft, comprising:
a fixed frame having a front and delimiting at least one storage compartment having a front opening which is formed through the front, and
a pivoting frame having a front, mounted to pivot on the fixed frame to occupy a storage position in which the pivoting frame is placed inside the at least one storage compartment of the fixed frame and an accessibility position in which the pivoting frame extends through the front opening of the at least one storage compartment,
the pivoting frame delimiting at least one reception space having at least one access opening, situated behind the front of the pivoting frame, for the introduction of electronic cards into the at least one reception space and their removal when the pivoting frame is in the accessibility position in which the at least one access opening is situated in front of the front opening of the at least one storage compartment,
the pivoting frame being provided with electrical connectors coupleable to electrical connectors of the electronic cards introduced into the at least one reception space,
wherein the pivoting frame is provided with at least one additional electronic card having an electrical connector that is coupleable to an electrical connector of the electronic cards introduced into the at least one reception space.
2. The electrical equipment of claim 1 , wherein the storage position and the accessibility position are determined by a plurality of abutments.
3. The electrical equipment of claim 1 , wherein the electrical connectors of the pivoting frame are situated opposite the at least one access opening.
4. The electrical equipment of claim 1 , wherein the front of the pivoting frame comprises a front wall closing the front opening of the at least one storage compartment when the pivoting frame is in the storage position.
5. The electrical equipment of claim 1 , wherein the at least one additional electronic card is arranged opposite the at least one access opening in relation to the at least one reception space.
6. The electrical equipment of claim 1 , wherein the fixed frame is provided with at least one external electrical connector, linked to the at least one additional electronic card by at least one flexible electrical cable.
7. The electrical equipment of claim 1 , wherein the electronic cards are arranged in the at least one reception space parallel to one another and at right angles to a pivoting axis of the pivoting frame.
8. The electrical equipment of claim 1 , wherein the pivoting frame comprises, in the at least one reception space, opposing grooves into which opposite edges of the electronic cards are configured to slide.
9. The electrical equipment of claim 1 , wherein at least one of the front of the fixed frame and the front of the pivoting frame have ventilation passages.
