Description
本发明涉及一种开关，其带有至少一组相互作用的触点，触点容纳在开关壳中并且可以透过一个透明窗口而被看到。触点布置在载流簧片的自由端上，簧片向着窗口延伸。
这种类型的开关是众所周知的，它们具有一个缺点，即在使用了一段时间后，窗口会被弄脏而变得不是充分透明了，这就导致触点的位置不再能够清楚地看到。出现这种问题的原因是，当载流触点分开时，会形成一个电弧，电弧产生的物质会沉积在窗口上。
在美国专利5,061,833中描述了一种上述类型的开关，其中载流簧片具有一个邻近于它的触点的U形段，而且上述段的开口背向窗口。
本发明的一个目的是提供一种在前叙部分中描述类型的开关，其能够克服上述缺点。
根据本发明，这个目的可以通过下面事实而实现，即一个由可磁化材料制成的板被安置在至少一个簧片的U形段的臂之间。
利用一个或多个U形段可以在触点位置上产生一个磁场，这个磁场使得电弧背离窗口吹出。这样可以减轻窗口的沾染。
上述吹弧可以通过一个由可磁化材料制成的板而改进，并且可以通过从属权利要求中的方法而改进。
下面将通过参考附图而更详细地解释本发明，附图包括：
图1简要显示了一种现有开关的一部分；
图2显示了根据本发明的开关的一部分的实施例；
图3显示了本发明的另一个实施例；以及
图4显示了本发明的另一个实施例。
在一种现有开关中，即出于安全原因，触点以这样的方式布置在开关壳中，即触点能够被安装了开关的设备的操作人员看到。其结果是，操作人员除了可以获得按钮信号以外，还能获得用于显示触点是断开还是闭合的视觉指示，这是由于在某些环境下按钮信号不能正确地指示触点的位置。在开关壳装经常装有一个窗口，以使触点可见。触点位于窗口的正后方，特别是以这样的方式布置，从而使得触点的位置，即断开或闭合，能够快速和可靠地检验。
图1显示了一个这种类型开关的一部分，开关带有一个外壳1。由透明材料制成的窗口2安置在该外壳中。分别固定在相应簧片5和6端部的触点3和4安置在窗口后面。电流通过这些簧片供应和排放。
当触点3和4位于闭合位置时，一般会有电流流过触点3和4以及簧片5和6。在这种载流状态下，如果触点3和4彼此分开，换言之，电路断开，则会有电弧形成在触点3和4之间。这个电弧所产生的物质将沉积在窗口2上并导致窗口弄脏。如果载流簧片5和6以最现眼的形态布置，如图1所示，即面对着窗口2，则电弧实际上会吹向窗口，从而导致更快的弄脏。因此，需要采取措施以确保触点可见，即使是经过了多次开关操作以后。
图2显示了根据本发明的一种方法。图中所示开关也包含装有窗口12的外壳1。触点3和4固定在载流簧片5和6的自由端上，所述簧片上分别具有一个U形段。该U形段包含横片7以及臂8和9。触点3通过，例如铆接，而固定在臂9的自由端上。优选的结构是，在载流簧片6上实施同样的措施，如图2中的实施例所示。应当指出，簧片5和6的U形段包含带有直角的平直部分。然而，也可以采用连续环形。
利用载流簧片5和6的U形段的结果是，在触点3和4的位置上，可以产生一个磁场，以使电弧背离窗口2吹出。其结果是，窗口2不会被弄脏，即使是经过了多次开关操作以后。
因载流簧片5和6的特定形状而导致的吹弧可以通过一种未示出的方式而改进，即簧片上固定着触点的部位，即簧片U形段的臂9，窄于簧片5的其余部位。这样可以使簧片上固定着触点的相关部位的磁场相对于簧片5的其余部位的磁场得到强化。
图3显示了一个实施例，其中吹弧被进一步强化。为此，在簧片5和6的U形段的臂8和9之间分别装有一个由可磁化材料制成的板10、11。
在图2、3和4中，相应的部件以相同的参考代号表示，因此这些部件不再通过图3和4进行描述。
根据图4，一个由可磁化材料制成的板添加在触点3和4之间并邻近于它们。这个板12垂直于触点3和4的运动平面。还已发现，这个板可以进一步强化触点3和4处的所需磁场。
