Trunking intended to carry modules connected to power cables and to communication cables
A raceway for a low voltage cabinet, including a body, a bottom and an intermediate wall jointly delimiting a compartment with a permanent opening extending along one side of the raceway, and a flap hinged on the body towards the raceway on the side of the raceway in which the permanent opening is delimited, this flap being mobile so that it can be folded to face the intermediate wall or to be separated from it. The compartment is designed to hold communication cables, the intermediate wall is designed to hold power cables on its face opposite the compartment, the flap is thus designed to support modules on its face opposite the intermediate wall, each module being connected to at least one communication cable and at least one power cable.
1. A raceway for a low voltage cabinet, comprising:
a body comprising a bottom and an intermediate wall jointly delimiting a compartment with a permanent opening extending along one side of the raceway, the intermediate wall including opposite outer and inner faces, the inner face delimiting the compartment, the outer face being opposite to the compartment; and
a flap hinged on the body at the side of the raceway in which the permanent opening is delimited, said flap being mobile so that said flap is configured to be folded to face the outer face of the intermediate wall and to be separated from said intermediate wall, the compartment being configured to hold communication cables, the intermediate wall being configured to hold power cables on its outer face opposite the compartment, the flap being configured to support modules fixed on its face opposite the intermediate wall, each module being connected to at least one of the communication cables and at least one of the power cables.
2. The raceway according to claim 1 , in which the body is composed of a folded metal plate to form the bottom and the intermediate wall.
3. The raceway according to claim 2 , in which the body comprises a side delimiting the compartment jointly with the bottom and the intermediate wall, said side being a continuation of the bottom of the side opposite the intermediate wall, said side making a right angle with the bottom, the orientation of the intermediate wall being oblique relative to the bottom.
4. The raceway according to claim 2 , in which the intermediate wall comprises holes that will contain attachment collars for the power cables.
5. The raceway according to claim 2 , in which the flap is formed by a plate hinged on the body and is supported by the body, being engaged on said body.
6. The raceway according to claim 5 , including a return extending along an extension to the intermediate wall, being folded relative to said intermediate wall, said return comprising openings or windows into which corresponding tabs will fit projecting from one edge of the flap, to engage the flap on the body and its hinge.
7. A low voltage cabinet according to claim 1 .
