Abstract

A frame profile section for a framework of a rack or a switchgear cabinet or a table system. A cooling system can be constructed advantageously if the frame profile section is made from a support profile section and a coolant supply line arranged in a hollow chamber extending the length of said support section. The coolant supply line can be accessed at least in sections, along a longitudinal side of the frame profile section.

       9 . The frame profile section in accordance with  claim 8 , wherein in an edge area which is remote from the opening side a free space ( 13 ) is formed by at least one of an obliquely extending wall section and sealing edges ( 12 ) projecting perpendicularly to the exterior.  
   
   
       10 . The frame profile section in accordance with  claim 9 , wherein two support strips ( 11 . 1 ) facing each other are arranged in a free opening area of the hollow chamber ( 11 . 1 ).  
   
   
       11 . The frame profile section in accordance with  claim 10 , forming one of a rack ( 1 ), the switchgear cabinet, the table ( 31 ) and the table arrangement ( 30 ) having at least one frame leg formed as the frame profile section ( 10 ).  
   
   
       12 . The frame profile section in accordance with  claim 11 , wherein the coolant conductor ( 20 ) is connectible to at least one of a coolant inlet and an outlet line by at least one of a connecting element inserted into at least one of the front sides of the frame profile section ( 10 ) and adapters inserted into the access opening ( 22 ).  
   
   
       13 . The frame profile section in accordance with  claim 12 , wherein a power supply ( 30 ) is inserted into the hollow chamber ( 11 ) of at least one frame leg.
