Description

Schalter für große Schaltströme mit Lichtbogenlöschung durch einen Blasstrom Die Erfahrung zeigt, daß zur Beherrschung elektrodynamischer Kräfte, welche an der Übergangsstelle zwischen dein beweglichen und feststehenden Kontakt in elektrischen Luft- oder Flüssigkeitsschaltern für hohe Stromstärken auftreten, mindestens einer der Kontakte unterteilt werden muß, damit der Stromübergang gleichzeitig an mehreren Punkten stattfindet. Auf diese Weise verkleifiert man die Strohdichte an den einzelnen Kontaktstellen und dadurch die elektrodynamischen Abstoßungskräfte.Switches for large switching currents with arc quenching by one Blow current Experience shows that to control electrodynamic forces, which at the transition point between your moving and stationary contact in electrical Air or liquid switches for high currents occur, at least one the contacts must be divided so that the current transfer to several at the same time Points takes place. In this way, the straw density is covered up on the individual Contact points and thereby the electrodynamic repulsive forces.

Man hat daher mindestens einen der Schalterkontakte aus segmentförmig unterteilten, unter Federwirkung stehenden Kontaktelementen aufgebaut. Schalter mit solchen Kontakten haben den Nachteil, daß an der Berührungsstelle zwischen dem festen und dem beweglichen Kontakt Brennstellen auftreten können, die den Betrieb des Schalters nachteilig beeinflussen.You therefore have at least one of the switch contacts from segment-shaped subdivided contact elements under spring action. counter with such contacts have the disadvantage that at the point of contact between the Fixed and moving contact burns can occur that affect the operation of the switch adversely affect.

Gegenstand der Erfindung ist nun ein Schalter für große Schaltströme mit Lichtbogenlöschung durch einen Blasstrom und mit einem Hohlkontakt, der aus segmentförmig unterteilten, unter Federwirkung stehenden Kontaktelementen besteht, die den Stromübergang zwischen dem festen und dem beweglichen Schalterkontakt vermitteln, bei dem erfindungsgemäß die Bildung von Brennstellen dadurch beseitigt ist, daß die Kontaktsegmente so geformt sind, daß der der Kontaktstelle zuströmende und von ihr abströmende Bl,asstrom düsenartig geführt ist, und nachgiebig zwischen zwei konzentrisch ineinandergeschobenen metallischen Zylinderwandungen in der Weise angeordnet sind, daß sich die innere Zylinderwand bis in die Nähe der schmalen Berührungszone des Hohlkontaktes mit dem Gegenkontakt erstreckt.The invention now relates to a switch for large switching currents with arc quenching by a blowing current and with a hollow contact that consists of consists of contact elements subdivided into segments and subject to spring action, which mediate the current transfer between the fixed and the movable switch contact, in which, according to the invention, the formation of focal points is eliminated in that the contact segments are shaped so that the contact point flowing towards and from Your outflowing Bl, asstrom is guided like a nozzle, and flexible between two arranged concentrically nested metallic cylinder walls in the way are that the inner cylinder wall is close to the narrow contact zone of the hollow contact with the mating contact extends.

In der Zeichnung sind -Ausführungsbeispiele der Erfindung in Fig. i und a schematisch im Längsschnitt durch den Hohlkontakt dargestellt..In the drawing, exemplary embodiments of the invention are shown in FIG. i and a shown schematically in longitudinal section through the hollow contact ..

Der Hohlkontakt a bildet den festen Kontakt eines Schalters mit dem beweglichen Stiftkontakt b als Gegenkontakt. Der Hohlkontakt besteht aus zwei konzentrischen Hohlzylindern cl, c2 und einem Bodenteil g für die Befestigung des Hohlkontaktes. In dem Ringraum zwischen den beiden Hohlzylindern sind die Kontaktsegmente d nachgiebig mittels Federn gelagert, die sich gegen den äußeren Zylinder c2 abstützen. Der Ringraum zwischen den einander umgreifenden Wänden des Hohlkontaktes ist auf der dem Gegenkontakt zugekehrten Stirnseite des Hohlkontaktes durch einen scheibenförmigen Körper e abgedeckt, der aus Metall bestehen kann und dann als Abbrennkontakt dient. Der innere Zylinder cl erstreckt sich in die Nähe der schmalen Berührungszone f zwischen den Kontaktsegmenten des Hohlkontaktes ttnd dem Gegenkontakt, so daß die Möglichkeit besteht, daß er unter der Einwirkung des der Schaltbewegung entgegengesetzt gerichteten Blasstromes den Lichtbogenansatzpunkt übernehmen kann. Auf diese Weise werden die Kontaktsegmente gegen die zerstörende Wirkung des öffnungslichtbogens geschützt, und es wird gleichzeitig eine freie Blasöffnung geschaffen. Wieg ersichtlich, sind die Kontakte des Schalte so geformt, daß der der Kontaktstelle z°' strömende und von ihr abströmende Blag;-P## strom. düsenartig geführt ist.The hollow contact a forms the fixed contact of a switch with the movable pin contact b as a mating contact. The hollow contact consists of two concentric hollow cylinders cl, c2 and a base part g for fastening the hollow contact. In the annular space between the two hollow cylinders, the contact segments d are resiliently mounted by means of springs which are supported against the outer cylinder c2. The annular space between the mutually engaging walls of the hollow contact is covered on the end face of the hollow contact facing the mating contact by a disk-shaped body e, which can be made of metal and then serves as a burn-off contact. The inner cylinder cl extends in the vicinity of the narrow contact zone f between the contact segments of the hollow contact ttnd the mating contact, so that there is the possibility that it can take over the arc starting point under the action of the blowing current directed in the opposite direction to the switching movement. In this way, the contact segments are protected against the destructive effect of the opening arc, and a free blow opening is created at the same time. As can be seen, the contacts of the switch shaped so that the blag flowing from the contact point z ° 'and flowing away from it; -P ## current. is guided like a nozzle.

Soll der zur Löschung des Lichtbogens dienende Blasstrom durch ein strömendes Löschmittel erzeugt werden, so wird man mit Vorteil den sonst als Abbrandring dienenden Teil e des Schaltstückes aus Isolierstoff ausführen. Auch wird es unter Umständen zweckmäßig sein, den Hohlkontakt außen mit einer Isolierhülse gegen den Lichtbogen zu schützen.Should the blowing current used to extinguish the arc go through a flowing extinguishing agent are generated, so one is with advantage the otherwise as a burn-up ring Make the serving part e of the contact piece made of insulating material. Also it will be under It may be useful to put the hollow contact against the outside with an insulating sleeve Protect arc.

Die Löschwirkung wird erheblich verstärkt, wenn auch der mittlere Zylinder cl des Hohlkontaktes in Form einer Düse ausgebildet wird (Fig. 2). Es ist vorteilhaft, den den Ringraum des Hohlkontaktes abdeckenden Teil e2 aus Isolierstoff derart düsenförmig auszubilden und ihn. mit dem mittleren Zylinder des Hohlkontaktes so zusammenzubauen, daß er eine Verlängerung desselben darstellt.The extinguishing effect is considerably increased, albeit the medium one Cylinder cl of the hollow contact is designed in the form of a nozzle (Fig. 2). It is advantageous, the part e2 covering the annular space of the hollow contact made of insulating material in such a nozzle-shaped manner and him. with the middle cylinder of the hollow contact to assemble so that it is an extension of the same.
