Abstract
A box-frame housing for the installation of electronic modules has frame elements and side walls and provides a subdivision into sub-regions, which are limited by dividing walls. The frame elements and the side walls and the dividing walls provide at least one recess and/or at least one edge projection. A projection engages in a recess and both are connected to one another by welding.
Claims3
A method for manufacturing a box-frame housing for installation of electronic modules, said method comprising:
- forming a box-frame housing that provides frame elements and side walls, and also provides a division into sub-regions, wherein the sub-regions are limited by dividing walls,
- wherein the frame elements, the side walls and the dividing walls are fitted together so that a projection engages respectively in a recess, and the projection and the recess are connected to each other by welding,
- wherein guide openings with projecting collars are arranged in the side walls or the dividing walls in two parallel straight lines at a distance from one another, and parallel to an insertion direction of an electronic module,
- wherein the projecting collars face towards one another,
- wherein a spring holds a printed circuit board in the guide openings,
- wherein the spring is connected in a detachable manner to one of the side walls or the dividing walls so that the spring hooks into a region limited by the guide openings which are spaced at the distance from one another, and
- wherein holding tabs are inserted into retaining openings to adjust the spring in a variable manner.
