Definitions

  • the present invention relates generally to circuit breakers.
  • a circuit breaker generally comprises, in a housing, a first contact, which is fixed, a second contact, which is movable between a latched closed position and a latched open position, and which is requested in direction of its position triggered by elastic opening means, any trigger member, which is capable of causing the release of said movable contact, and therefore the passage of the latter from its engaged position to its triggered position, a joystick d engagement and release, which is available to the user, and which is movably mounted between an engagement position and a release position, and a latching mechanism, which is established between said trigger member and said switch on and off.
  • the present invention relates more particularly to those of these circuit breakers in which the movable contact is articulated by pivot to a latching member, which belongs to the latching mechanism, and which is itself movably mounted in the housing.
  • the latching mechanism includes in general, a latching member, on which the movable contact is therefore articulated by a pivot, and which is subjected to the triggering member, an operating member, which is linked to the latching lever and trigger, and which in practice is integral therewith, and a retaining member, by which said latching member is capable of releasably engaging said operating member.
  • the corresponding tripping member acts on the latching member and prints on it a sufficient movement so that it escapes the retaining member with which it was hitherto engaged.
  • the attachment provided by the attachment mechanism is therefore broken, and the movable contact, released, departs from the fixed contact under the stress of the elastic opening means associated with it.
  • the movable contact comprises a drive shoulder, on which can come to carry, for its drive, a shoulder provided for this purpose on the attachment member to which it is articulated by pivot.
  • the latching member can involve its own movement in the driving of the movable contact, its shoulder coming to bear against the driving shoulder of said movable contact.
  • the present invention generally relates to a provision allowing, on the contrary, the latching member to apply, upon opening, to the moving contact, a real tearing force actively participating in the takeoff of this moving contact. with respect to the fixed contact to which it has hitherto been applied, without modifying the conditions of movement of the assembly.
  • the present invention relates to a circuit breaker, the latching mechanism of which comprises, as mentioned above, a movable latching member, on which the movable contact is articulated by a pivot, and which is subjected to a tripping member, said movable contact further comprising a drive shoulder on which may come, for its drive, a shoulder provided for this purpose on the latching member,
  • this circuit breaker being characterized in that, apart from the fact of its articulation link with the movable contact and of the possible guiding of the corresponding articulation pivot, the latching member is free to move in the case of the circuit breaker, no fixed stop being provided in this- ci on the path swept at the opening by said organ fastening, so that, upon opening, this fastening member immediately drives the mobile contact by its shoulder, and thus applies a tearing force to the latter, without modifying the corresponding pivot axis .
  • the opening speed of the circuit breaker is advantageously increased.
  • Figures 10 and 11 are views similar to that of Figure 8 and show two successive phases of the operation of this alternative embodiment.
  • Such a circuit breaker generally comprises a housing 10; according to arrangements known in themselves, and which will therefore not be detailed here, such a case is for example formed by two shells suitably facing one another and suitably linked to each other by screws or rivets.
  • the housing 10 is equipped laterally with two connection terminals 11A, 11B.

  • the hooking member 30 On the other side of the pivot 31, the hooking member 30 has an arm 47, which is bent, and the end of which is opposite an extension 48 of the movable core 25; on this arm 47 of the hooking member 30 is engaged a frame 49 which, in the middle part of its longitudinal edges, is provided laterally projecting with lugs 50 by which it is pivotally mounted in housings provided for this effect in the housing 10, and whose transverse edges extend, one facing said arm 47 of the fastening member 30, the other facing the free end 20 of the bimetallic strip 18.
  • a stirrup 51 On the bent arm 47 of the hooking member 30, is also engaged a stirrup 51, the median crosspiece of which extends substantially in line with the articulation pivot 31, and the two wings of which are integral with a hub 52; the ends of this hub 52 are, in the manner of journals, rotatably mounted in holes, which are provided for this purpose in the housing 10, and which open to the outside, so that said hub constitutes a drive shaft through which the circuit breaker can, using spacers coupling not shown, be linked to a neighboring circuit breaker, or another module of this type, fitted with a similar drive shaft.
  • the hub 52 has a protruding finger 54 radially, and, jointly, facing this finger, the bent arm 47 of the hooking member 30 has a protruding lug 55.
  • the movable contact 16 carries a drive shoulder, on which can carry, for its drive, a shoulder provided for this purpose on the attachment member 30.
  • the drive shoulder of the movable contact 16 is formed by the crosspiece 56 constituting the transverse edge of its recess 34 opposite the fixed contact 15A, that is to say say the farthest from the latter, this crosspiece 56 is offset transversely with respect to the current part of the movable contact 16, by forming for example, and as shown, an end folded at right angles thereto, and the corresponding shoulder 58 of the fastening member 30 is formed on the tab 55 which laterally projecting from this fastening member.
  • the attachment member 30 is, according to the invention, free to move in the housing 10, no fixed stop being provided in the latter on the path which it sweeps when the movable contact 16 opens.
  • This opening is for example caused by a short circuit on the line concerned, causing the moving core 25 to come into action, which, acting on the arm 47 of the fastening member 30, causes a rotation thereof around the pivot 31
  • the shoulder 58 of the hooking member 30 has come to bear against the shoulder 56 of the movable contact 16, so that, as soon as it is released, the latter is subjected, d on the one hand, to the drive effects due to the spring 37, as described above, and on the other hand, to a tear-off effect corresponding to the rotation which, due to and transmitted from the movable core 25 ci in movable contact 16 by the fastening member 30, tends to rotate this movable contact 16, according to arrow Fl in FIG. 3.

  • the action branch 41 of the torsion spring 37 which, as before, constitutes a bending spring, is, by a return 70 from its free end, engaged in a groove 71 of the mobile contact 16.
  • the interlocking and tripping lever which is shown diagrammatically in fine lines in the figures, under the general reference 126, is different from that implemented previously: it has the shape of a yoke, of which the middle part, which is external, forms the gripping means available to the user, and the branches of which, which are internal and frame the hooking mechanism, each carry at their free end a pin 128.
  • a bulge 132 of these branches forms the operating member linked to such a lever, this bulge comprising a shoulder 146 for cooperation with the retaining member by which the latching member 30 is likely to come engaged with this controller.
  • this retaining member is constituted by the pivot 31 by which the movable contact 16 is articulated to the attachment member 30.
  • the attachment member 30 first rotates around the pivot 31, the latter being momentarily retained by the engagement and trigger lever 126, and this rotation of the member hooking 30 causes the release of the support lug 59, the shoulder 64 of the hooking member 30 escaping therefrom; due to the resulting retraction for the support lug 59, the bending of the action branch 41 of the spring 37 is canceled.
  • the latching member 30 causes, as before, the rotational drive of this movable contact 16 .
  • the movable contact 16 is subjected to the opening only to the effects of the spring 37 which are applied to it by the end of the branch 41 thereof, excluding effects of this spring which were previously applied to it via the support lug 59.
  • the attachment mechanism is, as described in the French patent No. 75 34575 mentioned above, of the type comprising a member retainer mounted movable in grooves of the housing, it could just as easily be of another type, and for example of the type of latching mechanism with free rolling element described in the French patent application registered on March 22, 1978 under No. 78 08263, in which the retaining element is a free rolling element.
