Description

For the contact closure equipment of switch
Technical field
The present invention relates to a kind of contact closure equipment for switch
Background technology
As everyone knows, electric switch uses and allows by operation outer handle concurrently and synchronously disconnect and close the mechanism of multiple movable contact, and the automatic intervention of the proterctive equipment that this outer handle can be had by user and switch internal gets at.
Some switches have the equipment of the service speed allowing to make contact closure speed independent of handle.
In fact preferably, contact is instantaneous closed, is used for preventing dangerous result, such as the generation of electric arc between close contact.
FR-2717617 and EP2061060 discloses the electric switch having and guarantee quick contact closure system.
FR2686453 discloses a kind of differential switch with active trip, and this separating mechanism is positioned at case, between action bars and contact supporter.
In the middle of the design of these switches, two common problems are complexity and the size of this mechanism.
From structural point, in order to make product have economy, there is the demand continued simplifying this mechanism, and making assembling simplification and automation also be very important.
Another basic problem improves the performance of switch, maintains small size simultaneously and under any circumstance all meet standard.
Summary of the invention
Target of the present invention is to provide a kind of equipment for close switch contact, which ensure that the quick-make independent of action bars service speed, have simplification and can the economic structure manufactured.
Within the scope of this target, the object of this invention is to provide a kind of contact closure equipment, it can be used in safety switch, such as residual current circuit breaker and Thermomagetic circuit-breaker.
Another object of the present invention is to provide a kind of equipment, relies on its specific architectural feature, can provide maximum guarantee to the reliability in use and fail safe.
To this target more apparent be become and these and other objects are realized by a kind of contact closure equipment for switch below, this switch comprises at least one movable contact and at least one fixed contact, and described movable contact relies on the mechanism operation activated by action bars; Contact keeps bar to support one or more movable contact; Described contact keeps bar can rotate between breaking-off contact position and closed contact position; Each described movable contact keeps swinging in the corresponding seat in bar being formed at described contact; Release lever and described contact keep bar to be connected, and are applicable to the swing activating each movable contact; The feature of described closing apparatus is, each movable contact is arranged in corresponding seat with corresponding spring together with corresponding dropout blade-like part; At described release lever from described breaking-off contact position to during a part for the described rotation of described closed contact position, each dropout blade-like part engages with described release lever; During a described part for described rotation, described dropout blade-like part stops the activity of described movable contact at least in part, and described spring bears compression; At the end of a described part for described rotation, described dropout blade-like part departs from from described release lever, thus makes described movable contact freely contact described fixed contact by the effect of described spring; Described dropout blade-like part is arranged on described contact and keeps in the described seat of bar, and has the end be applicable to being arranged on described contact and keeping the described release lever on bar to engage.
Accompanying drawing explanation
From preferred but the description of the embodiments of the invention of nonexcludability, further characteristic and beneficial effect will become more apparent, and it is shown via example nonrestrictive in accompanying drawing, wherein:
Fig. 1 is the end view of residual current circuit breaker, illustrates with the state of breaking-off contact;
Fig. 2 is the view being similar to front figure, shows the circuit breaker being in contact closure step;
Fig. 3 is the view being similar to front figure, shows the circuit breaker being in closed contact state;
Fig. 4 is the decomposition diagram according to closing apparatus of the present invention;
Fig. 5 is the perspective view of the closing apparatus be under assembled state.
Embodiment
With reference to the accompanying drawing quoted, the entirety describing overall residual current circuit breaker inside of being specified by Reference numeral 100 herein by Reference numeral 1 specify according to contact closure equipment of the present invention, described residual current circuit breaker 100 comprises residual current circuit 101, is made up of relay and differential transformer.Residual current circuit 101 is applicable to rely on free tripping mechanism 104 to move to activate at least one movable contact 3 relative to fixed contact 103, with circuit that is closed or that disconnect between two input and output terminals 105.
Circuit breaker 100 has the actuation handle 106 for the manual activation of mechanism 104.
Mechanism 104 comprises closing apparatus 1, and it has at least one contact and keeps bar 2.Movable contact 3 is arranged on and keeps in bar 2, and contact pad 102 is arranged on movable contact 3.
Movable contact 3 synthesizes as a whole contact keeping arm 31 by dependence sweep 33 with support arm 32 and forms.
Support arm 32 has groove 34 and tab 35.
Movable contact 3 can swing against spring 5 being formed in the corresponding seat 21 in bar 2, and this spring 5 is between contact keeping arm 31 and spring support 6, and spring support is arranged in the seat 21 of bar 2.
Spring support 6 has the protuberance 61 of the end of combined spring 5.Spring support 6 also has recess 62, and described recess 62 has the internal tooth 63 of the groove 34 engaging movable contact 3.
The otch 64 being positioned at recess 62 place engages the tab 35 of movable contact 3.
Dropout blade-like part 7 is arranged in the seat 21 of bar 2, and has the end 71 that the release lever 8 that is suitable for and be arranged on bar 2 engages.
Release lever 8 has the protuberance 81 of corresponding each dropout blade-like part 7.
Release lever 8 also has the dropout tab 82 by cam 9 activity, and this cam 9 is arranged on contact and keeps on the rotating shaft of bar 2.
Contact keeps bar 2 can comprise one or more movable contact, such as, in the example illustrated, be two, or four or more.
Release lever 8 is single bars, and allows to lock movable contact provisionally and discharged in given moment.
Each movable contact all has dropout blade-like part 7, and it engages release lever 8 during closed procedure, stops the motion towards fixed contact 103 of corresponding movable contact 3, but is discharged by movable contact 3 in given moment.
In this step, the upper end of each dropout blade-like part 7 is all bonded in the corresponding protuberance 81 of release lever 8.
During closed procedure, while contact keeps bar 2 to rotate and the activity of movable contact 3 is prevented from, spring 5 is compressed.
Once thread off, that is, when dropout blade-like part 7 departs from release lever 8, spring stretches and produce the at once motion of movable contact 3 towards fixed contact 103, closed circuit between the terminal of mains side and the terminal of load-side.
Fig. 1-3 illustrates the operation because action bars 106 causes, sequence of motion when this equipment moves from breaking-off contact position to closed contact position.
In practice, have been found that the object and target that present invention achieves anticipation, provide a kind of equipment for close switch contact, which ensure that the contact closure of the service speed independent of switch knob.
Simple according to device structure of the present invention, and be easy to manufacture economically, ensure that high reliability and durability simultaneously.
The application advocates that Italian application number is MI2013A001034, and be filed in the priority of the application on June 21st, 2013, its theme is integrated with herein by way of reference.
