Description

Overcurrent protective device
Invention field
The present invention relates to a kind of temperature-sensitive overcurrent protective device that is used for motor starter.Specifically, the present invention relates to a kind of temperature-sensitive overcurrent protective device, this temperature-sensitive overcurrent protective device is used for the overcurrent protection of the motor starter of polyphase machine.More specifically; the present invention relates to a kind of temperature-sensitive overcurrent protective device; this temperature-sensitive overcurrent protective device is provided with multiple button; the quick escape mechanism and the contactor system that have the overcurrent protection that is applicable to the polyphase machine starter comprise being used for providing the built-in starting contactor that starts function to described motor starter.
Background technology
The temperature-sensitive overcurrent protective device generally is used to prevent multiple current flow through motor or equipment.The escape of overcurrent protective device and alarm contactor generally have the width of 45mm.Motor starter comprises a contactor as switching mechanism, and generally includes an overcurrent protective device.Described overcurrent protective device is connected with the coil of described contactor.Under overload situations, described overcurrent protective device escape, and disconnect described contactor or described motor starter, thus the discontinuous electric current of starting drive is provided by the power supply passage of described motor.In order to restart motor starter, use the separate type module in the current technology, the protection mechanism of described separate type module and overcurrent protective device is electrically connected.
The temperature-sensitive overcurrent protective device can be divided into two parts, main circuit and auxiliary circuits on electric.The full-load current of described motor flows through described main circuit, and starts switching mechanism, and therefore relevant auxiliary circuit just is in the state of overload.Described auxiliary circuit both can be used in the purpose of signalling, perhaps formed the part of control circuit.
Usually, overcurrent protective device only has one " alarm " and " escape " contactor.Four terminals are arranged on auxiliary circuit, and " alarm " and " escape " contactor respectively uses pair of terminals.
The overcurrent protective device of 45mm width has " alarm " and " escape " contactor, but five auxiliary connection ends are arranged.Such structure is normally used for mini contactor, and wherein, winding wiring is in identical level and/or height with the main power source terminals.In such structure, the 5th terminals are used to provide and being connected of described contactor coil.
Overcurrent protective device has " alarm ", and " escape " and " startup " contactor has five terminals.The width of such overcurrent protective device can not match with the contactor of 45mm width greater than 45mm.For all control device products in first framework, 45mm is a standard size.
Because the overcurrent protective device of 45mm width is not activated contactor, just needs extra " often opening (NO) " contact block, it is used on the motor starter.This " NO " contact block is used for " startup " contactor.
United States Patent (USP) 4859979 and indian patent 172722 about overcurrent protective device well known in the prior art comprises; first chamber of shell; bimetal leaf; pass the electric current that described bimetal leaf flows through polyphase network; by an electromagnetic contactor feeds load; and in second chamber, an electromagnetism subassembly comprises cut-out and signal-emitting switch, and described switch has movably contact and start-up point.Described second chamber also is included in the switching transmission device between described bimetal leaf and described public, also comprises the device of the operator scheme that is used for selector switch.
The shortcoming of described existing overcurrent protective device is:
Major defect is that the starting contactor that is used for motor starter is a separate type module, and it makes the volume of described device become very big.
Another shortcoming is because the wide overcurrent protective device of 45mm is not activated contactor, and the additional contact block of often opening must be housed in motor starter, and this has just strengthened and has taken up space and expense.
Another shortcoming is, under automatic operation mode, indication is not visible fully usually, and this has just caused instantaneous state indeterminate of each mechanism components of described device.
Therefore; a kind of temperature-sensitive overcurrent protective device just need be provided; described device is provided with multiple button; the quick escape mechanism and the contactor system that have the overcurrent protection that is applicable to the polyphase machine starter; comprise a built-in starting contactor; be applicable to and restart motor, and the convenience and the compact temperature-sensitive function of described device are provided.
Goal of the invention
Therefore, basic purpose of the present invention is to provide a kind of built-in " startup " contactor that is used for the overcurrent protective device (general width is 45mm) that size reduces.
Another object of the present invention is to provide a kind of temperature-sensitive overcurrent protective device of being convenient to operate with compact.
Use separate type module reduces production costs a further object of the present invention in motor starter by avoiding, thereby reduces terminal use's expense.
A further object of the present invention is only to pass through parts, and with different functions, as quick escape (together with other mechanical parts), manually escape (test function) and deixis integrated (operating/provide) are together.
A further object of the present invention is by coloured labeling is provided on above-mentioned parts, thereby the state of each mechanism of overcurrent protective device is provided a visual clearly indication.
A further object of the present invention is button and a switching that produces along with quick escape of having two diverse locations by one, thus provide reset automatically-manual mode.
A further object of the present invention is to provide a contactor system, and the feasible contactor gap that is obtained is greater than the stroke of slider.
