In addition, electronic selection formula automatic switch according to the present invention has mobile contact 40, and it is electrically connected first link 2 and contact bridge 20 under trouble-free situation.The contact 40 and first end 42 thereof that move are set in the oscillation bearing 44, and contact 40 is contiguous at its second end, 48 places and contact point 46 near contact bridge 20.The rotating shaft of oscillation bearing 44 is substantially parallel with the rotating shaft X of contact bridge 20.The contact 40 of moving is configured to be positioned at first fixed contact 22 and second fixed contact 24 the same side of contact bridge 20, and wherein, the compression spring 50 that brace table 52 is supported is towards the mobile contact 40 of contact bridge 20 extruding.The contact 40 of moving is connected to contact bridge 20 with first link 2 under trouble-free situation, and therefore produces closed second switch 14.What be arranged on the 3rd fixed contact 26 opposites is the stopper 54 that is fixed on the shell, and when contact bridge 20 moved towards the clockwise direction relative with the power of compression spring 34, stopper 54 was run into first end 30 of contact bridge 20, with the deflection of restriction contact bridge 20.
To be described in more detail main trigger equipment 12 hereinafter.Main trigger equipment has the coil 56 between second link 4 and auxilliary trigger equipment, and it is connected with second switch 14 and the 3rd switch 16.The main trigger equipment 12 that is set to electromagnetic actuator spare or electromagnetic system has coil core 58, pin 60 and first armature 62 that is positioned at coil 56 inside.In addition, second armature 64 is arranged in the coil 56 and can moves along triggering direction B, and to pin 60 generation effects.When inactive state, the power that second armature is compressed spring 66 is bearing on the stopper 68 that is fixed in shell.Be provided with short-circuited conducting sleeve 70 at core 58 towards a side of first armature 62, form eddy current in the short-circuited conducting sleeve 70 that the material by good conductive constitutes, the vibration that eddy current suppresses in the main trigger equipment 12 produces, thereby avoids sending bad noise.This is for being particularly advantageous with the alternating current operation, because the armature on the core 58 keeps friction when automatic switch triggers.
Pin 60 can be arranged in the core 58 and along triggering direction A and move axially, and passes through compression spring 66 towards triggering direction B biasing.The front end of pin 60 axially stretches out from core 58 towards contact bridge 20 and mobile contact 40, constitutes the striker that excites mobile contact 40, and wherein the application point of pin 60 is between the oscillation bearing 44 and compression spring 50 of the contact 40 of moving.Therefore, the through hole 72 that pin 60 passes contact bridge 20 extends, on the excitation direction B of first armature 62 and be positioned at pin 60 front ends before the contact bridge and be provided with and have extension (Aufweitung) or the part 74 that increases diameter, extension or part 74 are greater than the through hole 72 of contact bridge 20.When pin 60 when the excitation direction B of armature 62 moves, extension 74 bump contact bridges 20, move towards the counter clockwise direction relative so that contact bridge 20 winds the rotating shaft X that is made of first fixed contact 22 and second fixed contact 24, and contact bridge 20 and the 3rd fixed contact 26 are disconnected with the power of compression spring 34.Extension 74 is set on the pin 60, before pin 60 makes contact bridge 20 and 26 disconnections of the 3rd fixed contact mobile contact 40 and contact bridge 20 is disconnected.
The rear end of pin 60 is bearing in the blind hole of second armature 64 relative with first armature 62.Pin 60 penetrates the axial hole that is arranged in first armature 62.First armature 62 can be directed axially moving in the blind hole of second armature 64, and is supported on the flange (Bund) 75 relative with the part of the diameter with increase of pin 60 in its side away from second armature.
Auxilliary trigger equipment 6 will be described hereinafter.Auxilliary trigger equipment 6 comprises the bimetallic performer with first bimetallic 76, and described bimetallic is connected between first fixed contact 22 of first link 2 and first switch 8.Because by the electric current that auxiliary circuit flows, first bimetallic 76 is heated and is therefore crooked, then, circuit breaker 36 is activated after the time of delay relevant with current strength traditionally.Under the state of activation of circuit breaker 36, circuit breaker 36 moves along the direction of the arrow C indication shown in Fig. 4 A, second end 32 of contact bridge 20 rotates in a clockwise direction around axle X, stops at the 3rd fixed contact 26 relative positionings and is fixed on the stopper 54 on the shell until first end 30.Because this of circuit breaker 36 moves, and makes brace table 38 also move along the direction of arrow C indication, thus the rotation of contact bridge 20 do not move and can compress spring 34, the power of spring 34 can not increase yet.
The contiguous stopper 54 of first end of contact bridge 20 so the direction that guiding circuit breaker 36 points to along arrow C continues to move, disconnects the contact bridge 20 and first fixed contact 22 and second fixed contact 24, and the switch 8 of winning is opened.The location on triggering direction C by first fixed contact 22 and second fixed contact 24 at first makes second fixed contact 24 and contact bridge 20 disconnect, and first fixed contact 22 and contact bridge 20 are disconnected, and finally makes the circuit disconnection.
To describe in detail now according to electronic selection formula automatic switch of the present invention.
In failure condition, overload current appears between first link 2 and second link 4 by the low current shunt circuit, make coil 56 on first armature 62, produce magnetic force by induction, magnetic force makes second armature move towards the flange 75 of pin 60 along the power that triggering direction B overcomes spring 66, pin 60 overcomes the power of spring 66 in its mobile contact 40 of bump, application point place along triggering direction B then, be connected disconnection between the contact 40 of make moving and the contact bridge 20, shown in Fig. 2 A and Fig. 2 B.Extension 74 is installed on the pin 60, and contact bridge 20 still contacts with the 3rd fixed contact 26 and do not disconnect.Shown in the equivalent circuit diagram shown in Fig. 2 B, second switch 14 is opened, and first switch 8 and the 3rd switch 16 remain closed.Therefore, the bimetallic 76 of the bimetallic performer of the auxilliary trigger equipment 6 under the overload current situation is connected with the coil 56 of main trigger equipment 12 and by resistance 10 and the parallel circuits that the shunt circuit with the 3rd switch 16 constitutes, and wherein resistance 10 is by the shunt circuit short circuit.Cause first bimetallic 76 to be heated by the electric current that flows through first bimetallic 76, therefore above-mentioned circuit breaker 36 is opened after through very first time interval.In this case, overload current is corresponding to the first threshold electric current, and threshold current can be regulated (for example, corresponding scale between the power of the spring force by spring 66 and coil 56) with instrument by electronic selection formula automatic switch.
Because the first threshold electric current is instantaneous the crossing under at interval in the very first time, be connected closure once more between the contact 40 of moving and the contact bridge 20, thereby bimetallic 76 had the shunt circuit short circuit of first switch 14.Therefore, only there is the instantaneous increase of operating current and do not trigger circuit breaker 36.The purpose of this function is to be set to main switch by electronic selection formula automatic switch, wherein the overload current of Chu Xianing is at first eliminated by the terminal use by the safeties that are positioned at behind the main switch, and does not disconnect total power supply of great amount of terminals user as the electronic selection formula automatic switch of main switch work.
In the short circuit current situation, electronic selection formula automatic switch was set to activate circuit breaker 36 in very short time in promptly basic second time interval shorter at interval than the very first time.Fig. 3 A and Fig. 3 B illustrate this situation.Because short circuit current i.e. second threshold current, near the contact 40 of moving, contact bridge 20 is moved along triggering direction B by extension 74, make the disconnection that is connected of contact bridge 20 and the 3rd fixed contact 26, second switch 14 and the 3rd switch 16 are opened, shown in equivalent circuit diagram 3B.Therefore, the short circuit current resistance 10 that flows through first bimetallic 76, first switch 8, restriction electric current flows to second link 4 through coils 56.Short circuit current causes the unexpected heating of first bimetallic 76, and therefore, circuit breaker 36 is activated immediately.Under the situation of short interruption, second armature 64 make the 3rd fixed contact 26 immediately with the contact path
Figure BPA00001259698300091
Disconnect, make and insert even without any moving component, the also arc current of restriction on the 3rd fixed contact 26 completely effectively, thus guarantee to eliminate electric arc.Under the situation that high short circuit current occurs, second armature 64 along triggering that direction B moves and the layout of rear end by pin 60 acts directly on the pin 60, moves it immediately immediately towards contact bridge 20 along triggering direction.
Fig. 5 A and Fig. 5 B illustrate another execution mode according to electronic selection formula automatic switch of the present invention.Auxilliary trigger equipment 6 has the bimetallic performer, has second bimetallic 78 that is positioned at first bimetallic, 76 sides, the triggering that bimetallic 78 is set to be independent of first bimetallic 76 and causes circuit breaker 36 by the bimetallic performer.Second bimetallic 78 is connected between second fixed contact 24 and the coil 56.Second bimetallic 78 only is activated under short-circuit conditions or when surpassing second threshold current because under second threshold current time second bimetallic 78 and resistance 10 by shunt circuit by 16 short circuits of the 3rd switch.Therefore, second bimetallic 78 has and utilizes the function of opening circuit breaker 36 time of delay, and this time of delay is substantially less than time of delay of first bimetallic 76.
The invention provides a kind of electronic selection formula automatic switch, optionally disconnect through this electronic selection formula automatic switch after a while when overload current occurring, wherein, time can be measured like this, the terminal use can close electronic automatic switch subsequently before closing as the main switch of electronic selection formula automatic switch operation, when short circuit occurring, main switch disconnects being connected between first link 2 and second link 4 immediately.Electronic automatic switch according to the present invention has beneficial effect, normally in service, electric current between first link 2 and second link 4 substantially only flows through the coil 56 of main trigger equipment 12, because first bimetallic 76 or second bimetallic 78 shunt circuit by having second switch 14 and the 3rd switch 16 is by short circuit.Therefore, can make power consumption minimum according to electronic selection formula automatic switch of the present invention.In addition, electronic selection formula automatic switch according to the present invention has beneficial effect, and before disconnecting by circuit breaker 36, the continuous current that is used to control the auxiliary circuit of circuit breaker 36 is guaranteed, and avoids the auxilliary operating mistake of trigger equipment thus.
The favourable setting of resistance 10 and coil 56 will be described hereinafter, in conjunction with explaining its principle of work and power better by the automatic fuse of simplifying of master among Fig. 6 and Fig. 7.The setting of selectivity resistance 101 and kicker coil 102 and layout are applicable to resistance 10 and the coil 56 that is configured to coil.
For the electric current restriction of short-circuit conditions, main automatic fuse uses the resistance in 0.5 ohm of scope.
In about 10 milliseconds opening time, the selectivity resistor power is basic fault-free when 100 kilowatts of orders of magnitude.This needs quite large-sized selectivity resistance, for example describes in detail among the European application WO03/065398A1.Recommend to use pottery as the selectivity resistive element.Except the coil that resistance wire twines, reeled or the resistance of the restriction electric current that twines as the flat rubber belting that constitutes by resistance material
Figure BPA00001259698300111
Also be known.
Except the measure of avoiding bad magnetic field that is realized by this set, the space in " minimum circuit breaker " is usually also unavailable.
Shortcoming in essence is, short circuit for example during 5 times of rated current the magnetic field of kicker coil enough disconnect main contacts, during time-delay is opened circuit, also keep the disconnection of main contacts.By the electric current restriction of selectivity resistance, the electric current in the kicker coil will be reduced to 3 times of rated current, and magnetic pumping no longer enough keeps armature to overcome the power of the switching-in spring of main contacts.Consequently, the closed in short-term and disconnection more immediately of main contacts.The alternation procedure that this professional domain is called " woodpecker " is worthless.
The selectivity resistance that obtains according to the present invention can be the resistance 10 shown in Fig. 1 to Fig. 5, is set up the kicker coil (can be coil 56) that is used as the coil that is twined by resistance material and passes main circuit.
Therefore, make the free space placement selectivity resistance between the shell wall that utilizes kicker coil and main automatic fuse become possibility.
By this simple measure, can be by the additional number of turns of the selectivity resistance of connecting with kicker coil itself, make flux available in the magnetic circuit that produces by limited residual current greater than by electromagnet operating current produced.Armature makes main contacts guarantee to disconnect in time of delay, will lead the circuit breaker release (entklinken) of automatic fuse up to the selectivity bimetallic, and this is with interrupt circuit.
Selectivity triggers and kicker coil constitutes construction unit jointly, its by common magnet yoke ring around, construction unit has magnetic core, armature and selectivity bimetallic in addition.
Preferably, yoke is formed so that it not only as the lead of magnetic flux, is gone back as magnetic screen and heat shielding at contiguous instrument.Yoke is not only carried the selectivity bimetallic, goes back box ground around kicker coil four sides as coil shape selectivity resistance, and between the shell wall that is arranged at selectivity resistance and main automatic fuse of spatially two-sided (beidseitig).
If it is favourable that the complete selectivity trigger that is positioned at the same side jointly with kicker coil is interrupted by the switching technique (schaltungstechnisch) along the energy Flow direction of main contacts and break contact.
In addition, the coiling direction of selectivity resistance and kicker coil can the selected magnetic action effect that produces with offset current.
In Fig. 6, can find out that by the schematic diagram of main automatic fuse selectivity resistance 101 passes the setting of kicker coil 102.Similarly, the location of the switching technique of selectivity trigger is counted as parallel circuits.The on off state of describing meets " short circuit " fault in time of delay.
When being in opening, main contacts 103 and break contact 104 closures.Operating current flows through main contacts 103 and kicker coil 102 until the power supply user.
Armature 105 disconnects under the short trouble situation shown in Fig. 7, triggers main contacts 103 by the magnetic field of kicker coil 102.
Break contact 104 remains closed, and makes main contacts 103 be bridged by the parallel circuits that selectivity triggers.
Therefore, short circuit current is limited by selectivity resistance 101.
Residual current not only flows through selectivity bimetallic 106 and also flows through selectivity resistance 101 and kicker coil 102.Residual current produces the additional magnetic induction in the selectivity resistance, and magnetic induction is also guaranteed the enough braking force of the armature 105 on magnetic core 108 by disconnecting main contacts 103 strengthens armature 105 in the magnetic circuit of kicker coil gravitation in time of delay.
In the meantime, selectivity bimetallic 106 crooked and release circuit breakers, circuit breaker makes break contact 104 disconnect subsequently, keeps main contacts 103 to disconnect and interrupt protected circuit.If for example interrupt by the line protection switch in downstream another position at circuit in time of delay, the main automatic fuse of maintenance closes a floodgate and guarantees to remain device and can use.
The horizontal cross-section of the top view of the automatic fuse of master shown in Figure 7.It is conspicuous that the space of selectivity resistance 101 on kicker coil 102 is provided with, and is visible shell 110 in and as the structure at the yoke 107 of heat shielding of being close to instrument and magnetic screen.
When having fault, flux in the magnetic circuit not only also produces by the spiral of kicker coil 102 by the number of turns of selectivity resistance 10, make and guarantee enough by the residual current of selectivity resistance limits, so that armature 105 is remained on the magnetic core 108, the power that makes main contacts 103 overcome switching-in spring 109 is fixed on the position of disconnection.
Therefore, be that main automatic fuse is provided with the selectivity trigger, in selectivity bimetallic and selectivity resistance that series connection is provided with, trigger is set to the parallel circuits with respect to main contacts, and main contacts is bridged in " short circuit " failure condition.Selectivity resistance 101 is set as coil and is arranged in the magnetic circuit of kicker coil 102, is used for the power effect that magnetic is supported the disconnection of main contacts 103 and kept disconnecting.
Selectivity resistance 101 is the short circuit current in the associating of limitation function both, again along with residual current and the kicker coil 102 common flux that strengthen in the magnetic circuits.
Be arranged between yoke 107 and the kicker coil 102 to selectivity resistance 101 spaces, at least in part around and cover kicker coil 102.
The selectivity trigger is co-located on the same side of the energy Flow direction of main contacts 103 and break contact 104 by switching technique and kicker coil 102.
Selectivity trigger and kicker coil 102, magnetic core 108, armature 105, selectivity resistance 101, selectivity bimetallic 106 and yoke 107 be common to constitute construction units, wherein provides fixing near the yoke of shell wall 110 for the basic point of selectivity bimetallic 106 in large area.
Setting and kicker coil 102 as the selectivity resistance 101 of coil setting are applicable to according to resistance 10 shown in Fig. 1 to Fig. 5 of the present invention and coil 56.
