Embodiment Construction

[0024] The present invention includes a system for distributing power and / or signals within an electrified ceiling framing system. In particular, the present invention comprises a framework preferably mounted on the structured overhead portion of the interior space 101 capable of supplying power to low voltage electrical equipment 107 . FIG. 2 shows an indoor space 101 with a ceiling 103 supported by a ceiling grid framework 105 . The frame 105 is configured such that conductive elements within or on the frame 105 can be connected to provide selective power distribution and / or selective signal distribution. Electrical equipment 107 is powered, for example, by conductive elements or conductors 201 (see FIG. 3 ) placed on the surface of ceiling grid framework 105 . Ceiling 103 includes decorative tiles, acoustic tiles, insulating tiles, light fixtures, heating ventilation and air conditioning (HVAC) outlets, other ceiling elements or coverings, or combinations thereof. The ele...

Abstract

A power and signal distribution system for the building interior and a method for operating a power and signal distribution system for the building interior are provided. The system includes a plurality of conductors (201) adjacent to at least one surface of a plurality of support members (203) forming a grid (500). The system further includes at least one shunt switch (301) in communication with at least two conductors (201), the shunt switch (301) being configurable to selectively conduct power or signals between the at least two conductors (201).

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a self-configuring power grid, and more particularly to a grid system for distributing power and signals inside a building using the concept of a self-configuring power grid. Background technique [0002] The electrical grid used to connect power plants, power lines, and substations in the United States to homes, businesses, and factories operates almost entirely in the high-voltage alternating current (AC) range. Yet more and more parts of the equipment in those buildings actually operate on low voltage direct current (DC). These devices include, but are not limited to: digital displays, remote control devices, touch-sensitive control devices, transmitters, receivers, timers, light-emitting diodes (LEDs), audio amplifiers, microprocessors, and virtually all devices utilizing rechargeable batteries. product. The primary power distribution infrastructure challenge in modern commercial buildings is the need to convert p...
