Assembly, housing cover having an assembly of this type, and field device having a housing cover of this type
An assembly comprises a circular panel; an annular body; and an elastomer ring. The annular body has a panel seat surrounded by a lateral surface having a ring shaped outer groove bounded in a first axial direction by a first outer shoulder and bounded in an opposing, second axial direction by a second outer shoulder. Adjoining the first outer shoulder is a guide surface having a radius monotonically increasing with separation from the first shoulder. The circular panel has an outer lateral surface having a peripheral inner groove extending radially inwards. The two inner shoulders have a convex contour in which the rotational axis of the circular panel extends. The elastomer ring is clamped between both inner shoulders and both outer shoulders, whereby a shifting of the circular panel out of the annular body is prevented up to a limit loading.
1. A field device, comprising:
a housing having a housing body and a housing lid, the housing lid including:
an assembly, including:
a circular panel;
an annular body; and
an elastomer ring;
wherein the annular body has a panel seat surrounded by a lateral surface, wherein the lateral surface has a ring shaped, surrounding, outer groove bounded in a first axial direction by a first outer shoulder and bounded in an opposing, second axial direction by a second outer shoulder,
wherein a guide surface adjoins the first outer shoulder in the first axial direction and the guide surface has a radius increasing monotonically with separation from the first shoulder, wherein dr/dz<2/3, wherein r is a radius and z is an axial coordinate of the guide surface in cylindrical coordinates,
wherein the circular panel has an outer lateral surface having a peripheral inner groove extending radially inwards, which is bounded in the first axial direction by a first inner shoulder and which is bounded in the second axial direction by a second inner shoulder,
wherein the two inner shoulders have a convex contour in an axial longitudinal section in which the rotational axis of the circular panel extends, and
wherein the elastomer ring is clamped between both inner shoulders and both outer shoulders whereby a shifting of the circular panel out of the annular body is prevented up to a limit loading,
wherein the annular body has further a cylindrical wall section; and
an operating circuit arranged in the housing,
wherein a screw thread of the housing lid is screwed onto a complementary screw thread of the housing body to enclose the operating circuit.
2. The field device as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the field device satisfies ignition protection type, Ex-d.
