HOUSING FOR DEVICES THAT CAN BE MOUNTED AND ARRANGED SIDE-BY-SIDE ON A CARRIER RAIL, ASSOCIATED HOUSING MODULE SYSTEM AND DEVICE HAVING SUCH A HOUSING

摘要

The invention relates to a housing, particularly a series electronic housing, for devices (2, 4, 6, 8, 12) that can be mounted and arranged side-by-side on a carrier rail (10), wherein the housing has a first housing part (2A, 6A, 12A), by means of which the device (2, 4, 6, 8, 12) can be mounted on the carrier rail (10). The housing is characterized in that the first housing part (2A, 6A, 12A) has at least two receiving devices (28) for fixing a respective coupling module (20, 24, 70, 74) on the first housing part (2A, 6A, 12A), and in that either a coupling module (20, 70) for coupling energy supply lines (2, 4, 6, 8, 12) between two adjacent devices (2, 4, 6, 8, 12) arranged on the carrier rail or a coupling module (24, 74) for coupling signal lines between two adjacent devices (2, 4, 6, 8, 12) arranged on the carrier rail can be fixed on at least two receiving devices (28), said receiving devices being arranged in the first housing part (2A, 6A, 12A), preferably a distance away from one another. The invention further relates to an associated housing module system and a device (2, 4, 6, 8, 12) having such a housing.
