Abstract
The invention relates to a conductor rail fish-plate for the electrical and mechanical connection of successive conductor rails. Said fish-plate has two symmetrical half-profiles (4), which encompass the exterior profile of the conductor rail (1). The two half-profiles (4) are braced against one another using screws. Contact strips (18) are arranged in the contact zone between the conductor rail (1) and the respective half-profiles (4), said strips coming into contact with the respective surfaces by means of a large number of spring-loaded contacts.
Claims8
Conductor rail fish plate characterized by two mirror-inverted plates (4), which overlap the exterior of a conductor rail (1) in the region of a joint (3) between adjacent conductor rails (1), wherein the plates (4) can be tensioned against each other with a screw connection (8) on the outside of the cross-sectional profile of the conductor rails (1), and electrical contact strips (18) with a plurality of spring-loaded contacts (22) are arranged between the plates (4) and the conductor rails (1) to be connected.
