Indication means of a wedge of a lead-through system
The present invention concerns an indication means using the positions of two mutually moveable parts of an element. In one embodiment the indication means is used for a compression wedge of a lead-through system. The wedge comprises a first and a second wedge element ( 1, 2 ) moveable towards and away from each other between two extremes. A socket ( 7 ) is fastened in a rotatable way to the first wedge element ( 1 ) and a screw ( 6 ) is fixed to the second wedge element ( 2 ). One coloured end ( 11 ) of the screw ( 6 ) is received in a through opening ( 17 ) of the socket ( 7 ). The inner surface of said through opening has another colour than the coloured end ( 11 ) of the screw ( 6 ). The mutual position of the first and second wedge elements ( 1, 2 ) are controlled by rotation of the socket ( 7 ) on the screw ( 6 ).
1. Indication means showing a desired position of a wedge comprising a first wedge element and a second wedge element placed in line with each other and which wedge forms a part of a lead-through system further comprising a frame, modules, and stay plates, wherein the wedge is movable between two extreme positions by means of a socket and a screw received within a through opening of the socket, wherein the socket is constructed to rotate on the screw and that one extreme position of the wedge, in which the first and second wedge elements are as close as possible to each other, is indicated in that a mouth of the through opening of the socket and an end surface of the screw are flush with each other.
2. The indication means of claim 1 , wherein the end of the screw covers an inner surface of the through opening of the socket to indicate one extreme position of the wedge.
3. The indication means of claim 2 , wherein the wedge is moveable between the two extreme positions, in which the first and second wedge elements are as close or as far apart from each other as possible, wherein the screw is fixed to the second wedge element, wherein the socket is fastened to the first wedge element in a rotatable way, and wherein an end of the screw is received in the through opening of the socket.
4. The indication means of claim 3 , wherein at least an end surface of the end of the screw received in the through opening of the socket is given a different colour than an inner surface of the through opening of the socket.
5. The indication means of claim 4 , wherein the end surface of the screw is green and wherein the inner surface of the through opening of the socket is red.
6. The indication means of claim 3 , wherein an inner surface of the through opening of the socket is visible when the wedge is not in the extreme position in which the first and second wedge elements are as close as possible to each other.
