Invention field
The present invention relates to the contact that a kind of new contact material and this contact material are made, wherein said contact material comprises BN/TiB 2complex phase ceramic.The invention still further relates to and comprise BN/TiB 2pottery in circuit breaker as the purposes of contact, particularly as the purposes of the resistance in contact, and relate to a kind of circuit breaker, this circuit breaker comprises and uses this pottery as the contact of contact material.
Background technology
Circuit breaker is the electrical equipment of control and protection in electric power system.Such as, in order under the condition of high voltage as 24kV, disjunction big current, as 20kA, needs to design the special device with particular surroundings, medium voltage breaker (as M24+ or FP61) or primary cut-out.
In circuit breaker, electric current disconnection is mainly realized by mechanical system and particular surroundings around thereof.Mechanical system makes contact of breaker move enough distances in opposite directions with enough speed thus cuts off electric current.Around particular surroundings is for improving and guaranteeing the separation between contact.Circuit breaker, according to the difference of arc extinguishing environment, is mainly divided into five types:
1.SF 6circuit breaker: as modal breaker type, wherein use SF 6as arc extinguishing environment, and cut off electric current by mechanical system.This switch disconnector can manufacture very small-sized, and uses also very economical (such as, for the voltage of 24kV, size is less than 375mm).But, SF 6as greenhouse gas, limited the use of, will be progressively replaced from now on.
2. air circuit: this is the circuit breaker of another kind of common type, uses air as failure of current environment.Its shortcoming is that size is too large, and such as switch is greater than 600mm (for 24kV) usually.
3. vacuum circuit-breaker: use vacuum as arc extinguishing environment.But such cost is higher (such as than SF 6the cost of circuit breaker is high by 30%).
4. use other special gas as N 2or CO 2as the circuit breaker of failure of current environment.SF can be reduced like this 6consumption, thus reduce greenhouse effect.But this technology is also immature at present, does not almost have practical application.In addition, the impossible disjunction big current of this technology is used, as no-load current (default current).
5. oil circuit breaker: in application in early days, oil is widely used as failure of current environment.But seldom use this technology at present, because danger is too high.
Along with development in science and technology and to reasons such as the pay attention to day by days of environmental problem, the demand of circuit breaker also to be upgraded day by day and stricter, such as, wish in circuit breaker not containing environmentally harmful SF 6and there is high power factor etc.
Although carried out a large amount of R and D work for disjunction itself so far, but seldom there is research to relate to and use resistance for reducing the electric current before disjunction in the contact of circuit breaker, and relating to as this ohmic suitable contact material without any research, and more not corresponding (industry) application at present.
For the resistance material for the contact in circuit breaker in this solution, even not relevant research.Only in similar application, someone proposes and uses clay ceramic material to impact by short time current the large energy brought for absorbing as resistance.Patents can see CN 2802666 (" plate shape pottery carbon noninductive resistor ").
But this pottery is very limited in use due to heat absorptivity difference.Therefore, the solution of the feasible material for breaking circuit breaker chamber interior height electric current is not still found in prior art.
In addition, in circuit breaker, in order to reduce big current and arc extinguishing, usually can use water, cement or clay pottery (as clay/carbon black pottery), but there is following many deficiencies in these materials:
1. these schemes do not pay close attention to switch itself, and just design the resistor of switch disconnector outside.
2. the use of these materials substantially increases the volume of external resistor.
3. these materials can not bear very high temperature, or its resistivity acute variation can occur along with the change of temperature, and such as, the short-term operation temperature of above-mentioned clay pottery can not more than 250 DEG C, and Long-term service temperature can not more than 200 DEG C.
4. long-term work can cause the problem of oxidation of these materials, and brings irreversible negative effect to resistivity, the change of such as resistivity, and this is all unacceptable in switch and circuit breaker.
Therefore, in order to meet the current requirement to environmental protection and solve the problem, in the urgent need to a kind of new resistance material, it can be used as wiper resistance at circuit breaker internal, and obtain a kind of circuit breaker thus.

The present invention have been surprisingly found that BN/TiB 2complex phase ceramic, when being used for the contact of circuit breaker as contact material, can meet the demand proposed at the first bruss herein.
A first aspect of the present invention provides a kind of contact material used in circuit breaker, and wherein said contact material comprises BN/TiB 2complex phase ceramic.
What use in the present invention " comprises BN/TiB 2pottery " and " BN/TiB 2complex phase ceramic " etc. term synonym use, refer to by BN, TiB 2as main component, preferably higher than the BN/TiB of 90% weight 2the pottery of sintering, can also contain a small amount of composition or the impurity of other regulatory functions in this pottery.As BN and TiB of main component in final pottery 2, more than at least 90 % by weight of the preferred whole pottery of its content sum, preferably more than at least 95 % by weight, more preferably more than 98 % by weight, such as 99 % by weight.In this article, as there not being special instruction, " % " all refers to weight ratio.
In addition, AlN can be added as the 3rd composition in pottery, the mechanical performance of pottery can be improved thus.Such as, but the total weight content of AlN preferably more than 5%, should not be no more than 4 % by weight, be no more than 3 % by weight more than 6%, be no more than 2 % by weight or be less than 1 % by weight.Now can obtain better mechanical performance (" TiB 2the fabrication & properties research of-AlN complex phase ceramic ", Wang Bin, master thesis, Wuhan University of Technology).
In order to meet the further needs of the sintering performance such as quality and oxidation susceptibility, meeting under the above-mentioned prerequisite to Contents of Main Components requirement, also in preparation process, in some potteries, add appropriate Si 3n 4, Co, Ca, Ni, Cr, W and/or Nb.
In a preferred embodiment, this contact material is except using BN/TiB 2outside complex phase ceramic composition, also optionally containing other composition, such as, be selected from one or more following compositions: AlN, Si 3n 4, Co, Ca, Ni, Cr, W and Nb.Preferably, this ceramic material contains AlN, can strengthen BN/TiB thus 2the sintering character of complex phase ceramic.Si is added in ceramic material 3n 4also the corrosion resistance of this pottery can be improved.
Applicant also finds, to BN/TiB in preparation process 2si is added in pottery 3n 4or AlN, the non-oxidizability of this complex phase ceramic can also be improved.
In addition, as known to those skilled in the art, the sintering character that the metallic elements such as Co, Ca, Ni, Cr, W, Nb can improve pottery is added.Preferably, the metal of interpolation should more than 6% weight, otherwise too many metal ingredient can produce problem of phase separation, and can affect the stability of pottery.
Described BN/TiB 2complex phase ceramic is used for using, in particular as the active component in contact as contact material in circuit breaker.For the contact material being used as active component in circuit breaker, require when there being big current by this circuit breaker, this big current can drop quickly in the current range of expectation at short notice, thus prevents electric arc from producing.
Applicant has been found that TiB 2the TiB that/BN complex phase ceramic wherein can be contained by regulating and controlling 2with the weight ratio (or volume ratio) of BN, thus control this BN/TiB 2complex phase ceramic obtains having required resistance (rate), can obtain the resistance (rate) with required scope thus, thus be suitable as contact material, especially in circuit breaker.Particularly, TiB 2the resistance (rate) of the complex phase ceramic formed with BN is along with TiB 2there is a critical value range in the change of (phase) content.Near this critical value, there is marked change in the resistance (rate) of complex phase ceramic.Along with TiB 2the increase of content is higher than this critical value, and the resistance (rate) of complex phase ceramic obviously reduces.Present inventor make use of this characteristic especially, by regulating TiB 2with BN ratio (weight or volume), the resistance (rate) controlling this complex phase ceramic, in required scope, keeps the thermal conductance that this complex phase ceramic is good simultaneously.Resistivity as the ceramic material of contact material of the present invention according to the change of composition concrete in complex phase ceramic, can change in the scope of several m ohm cm to hundreds of ohmcm, and the resistivity needed for obtaining.In addition, the resistance (rate) of contact material of the present invention also can be subject to the impact of the aspects such as material purity, pretreating process, sintering process and granular size, but those of ordinary skill in the art can understand the diphase ceramic material that so can obtain having required resistance (rate) and thermal conductance scope according to prior art.
Resistivity is used to the physical quantity representing resistance characteristic.In this article, resistance (rate) represents resistance and/or resistivity.When description has the resistance element of same shape and size, resistance is corresponding with resistivity.
Corresponding to different circuit breaker design, usually also correspondingly different to the requirement of the resistivity of contact material.In the art, according to the concrete needs such as required resistance sizes and circuit breaker design, can use and well known to a person skilled in the art that ceramic material is made various sizes and shape by means, there is required resistivity.Such as, for plug in circuit breaker, require that the resistivity of diphase ceramic material is usually in the scope of 1m Ω cm ~ 500 Ω cm, preferred 5m Ω cm to 200 Ω cm, wherein more preferably 10m Ω cm ~ 150 Ω cm, such as 50m Ω cm ~ 100 Ω cm, more preferred 250m Ω cm ~ 150 Ω cm.Such as medium-pressure or high pressure circuit breaker, as in the circuit breaker that uses under the voltage of 10,000V to 50,000V, wish that the resistance of this complex phase ceramic is within the scope of 1-100 Ω, preferably at 10-80 Ω, more preferably within the scope of 10-50 Ω.As this BN/TiB 2when the resistance of complex phase ceramic is lower than described scope, do not have the effect that resistance material should have; And when resistance is higher than required scope, then usually there will be " hard open circuit ", circuit breaker self is had a negative impact.Usually, the selection of contact (material) resistance range, the embody rule scope according to circuit breaker can be determined by those of ordinary skill in the art.

This diphase ceramic material is heat-resisting, the high temperature up to 1800 DEG C when can bear circuit breaker open circuit.This diphase ceramic material can reduce temperature rapidly in this temperature, when reusing, still has high heat-resisting ability to bear, and stable chemical electrical properties.
Preferably, require that being used for complex phase ceramic of the present invention does not burst because change in size is too fast when being subject to thermal shock, if deformed, wish that change in size is very little, the contact of other elements of circuit breaker adjacent thereto can not be had influence on due to material deformation, can also keep the integrality of whole breaker circuit, can workability.For this purpose, diphase ceramic material of the present invention needs to have certain thermal expansivity.Such as, the BN/TiB used in the present invention 2the thermal coefficient of expansion of complex phase ceramic is 5 × 10 -6/ K ~ 8 × 10 -6/ K (this numerical value measures at 20 DEG C ~ 1600 DEG C).
In addition, as circuit breaker (comprising contact), operationally have big current and flow through, this can cause the temperature of circuit breaker (comprising contact) to rise rapidly at short notice.In order to prevent the local temperature of material to rise any adverse effect of too fast generation, wish that the diphase ceramic material used as contact needs to have suitable thermal conductivity.Preferably, the BN/TiB used in the present invention 2the thermal conductivity of complex phase ceramic can be 40 ~ 150W/ (mK) (20 DEG C), preferably 50 ~ 120W/ (mK) (20 DEG C).Or, the BN/TiB used in the present invention 2the thermal conductivity of complex phase ceramic can be 30 to 50W/ (mK) (1200 DEG C).
For the contact in circuit breaker except use complex phase ceramic contact material, also comprise current-carrying part.Current-carrying part can be such as metal connector, all presses metal sleeve, insulation protection.
On the other hand, the invention provides and comprise BN/TiB 2pottery in circuit breaker as the purposes of contact.Preferably, this comprises BN/TiB 2pottery in circuit breaker, be used as in contact active component.
In a preferred embodiment, BN/TiB is comprised described in 2complex phase ceramic be used as breaking resistor.When being used as breaking resistor, breaking current can be reduced to such as lower than 1.5kA by pottery of the present invention as required, is preferably reduced to lower than 1.0kA, is more preferably reduced to lower than 0.7kA, particularly when voltage is 10kV to 50kV, as at voltage be 10kV to 50kV circuit breaker in.
In the case, the resistivity of described pottery can be, such as, 1m Ω cm to 500 Ω cm, preferably higher than 1.6m Ω cm, more preferably 10 Ω cm to 160 Ω cm.
When being used as contact material, the thermal conductivity of described pottery can be 110/35 to 120/40W/ (mK) (20 DEG C/1200 DEG C).
In order to regulate the mechanical performance of this pottery, sintering character and/or oxidation susceptibility, this complex phase ceramic can also contain AlN, Si 3n 4, Co, Ni, Ca, Cr, W and/or Nb.
More on the one hand in, the invention provides a kind of circuit breaker, this circuit breaker comprises and can divide contact, wherein saidly divides contact to comprise above-mentioned any one to comprise BN/TiB 2the contact material of pottery, be particularly useful as resistance.What is called can divide contact to be the executive component making circuit ON or disjunction.Obviously, can divide in contact and can also comprise current-carrying part.
Described circuit breaker can also comprise the structures such as galvanic circle, arc-control device and optional operating mechanism.Specifically, galvanic circle is used for loaded current, and arc-control device is then used to rapidly, reliably extinguish arcs, and circuit is finally disconnected.Point resultant motion of contact is by operating mechanism work done and drive through transmission mechanism transmitting force, and the mode of operation of operating mechanism can be divided into manual, electronic, pneumatic and hydraulic pressure etc.In some cases, the operating mechanism of circuit breaker can not included in the body of circuit breaker, but provides to circuit breaker as independently product.In a preferred embodiment, contact can be divided to comprise fixed contact and moving contact.Described contact comprises active component and current-carrying part.Specifically, this can divide the active component of hoe can adopt BN/TiB of the present invention 2diphase ceramic material.According to concrete design needs, BN/TiB in this diphase ceramic material can be selected 2proper ratio, thus realize needed for resistance value.

Therefore, in one embodiment, contact of the present invention can work at up to the temperature of 1700 DEG C and not burst.In a preferred embodiment, contact of the present invention can work at up to the temperature of 1600 DEG C and not burst.
Especially, this BN/TiB of the present invention's use 2the heat absorption of pottery contact is high, can bear the high temperature that heavy current impact causes; Can big current be reduced before disjunction, and make electric current disjunction be more prone to carry out thus.This is because can make like this to need the electric current of disjunction less, correspondingly, required arc extinguishing bar will reduce greatly, such as known by simple calculating, for in the practical application of 24KV, 20KA, if seal in resistance to reach 20 more than Ω, breaking current can be reduced to lower than 1KA.Therefore less SF can be used 6, thus also reduce the adverse effect to greenhouse effect.
Therefore, contact of the present invention can be suitable for rated voltage is in the circuit breaker of 10kV to 50kV.

The present embodiment employs the BN/TiB prepared in embodiment 1 2complex phase ceramic (sample 1) materials processing becomes bulk sample as the resistance in contact, and the weight of resistance is as shown in table 4.In table 4, what absorptive capacity represented is the systemic energy of wiper resistance sample unit volume after being subject to rush of current.(maximum) temperature rise represents that wiper resistance sample (maximum) temperature after being subject to rush of current increases.
Table 4: the absorptive capacity of the resistance made of contact material of the present invention in heavy current impact experiment during Implantation Energy and temperature rise situation
*prospective current refers to electric current during circuit zero load, is the electric current of expection, through the ohmic load of reality, can changes.This desired value is the important indicator of adjustment input current
In addition, this BN/TiB 2the change in resistance of ceramic material before and after great current impact test is substantially all less than 2%.
The BN/TiB used in the present invention has been shown in Fig. 2 2the microphoto of wiper resistance before and after heavy current impact experiment that complex phase ceramic is made.Before and after experiment, distribution of particles and granular size are all without significant change.In addition, according to diagram, after overtesting, sample resistivity has no significant change, and change in resistance is less than 2%, and its internal microstructure is also without significant change.Can clearly observe from this photo, even if the impact that the wiper resistance using the diphase ceramic material described in the present invention to make is subject to big current in internal microstructure does not also significantly change.This illustrates that resistance of the present invention is metastable under running conditions, can work in multiple times for a long time.This obviously greatly reduces the cost of these replacing components and parts.
As a comparison, also use clay/carbon black ceramic preparation to become for the resistance in contact in the present embodiment, and detect in heavy current impact, test result is shown in table 6, and test oracle electric current is wherein 10kA.
