Definitions
- the invention relates to an arrangement for holding helical armature return springs in an electromagnetic switching device provided with a fixedly arranged magnetic core and a movable magnetic armature connected to a contact carrier, in particular a contactor, in which the return spring in an approximately cylindrical housing recess of the part of the housing which receives the magnetic core captive but detachable by means of an axially guiding spring which holds one end of the spring overlapping pin made of plastic, the first end of which engages behind an undercut of the wall of the cylindrical housing recess by means of a radially projecting nose and the second end of which is supported on the contact carrier.
- Retainer springs are known from DE-A-1 614 342 and DE-A-2 026 299.
- the springs are held on an expansion part that can be snapped behind a fixed heel.
- a snap connection to the contact bridges or the housing of the switching device which can be easily or difficultly detachable, can be established and the assembly of an electromagnetic switching device provided with return springs is simplified because the return springs are fixed in position with the plastic expansion parts by simply snapping them into place.
- An arrangement in which no additional spaces or additional parts lying outside the spring diameter are required has also become known in DE-B-1 256 300.
- the assembly with the known brackets is relatively simple: you only have to insert the expansion part into the opening until the expansion lugs reach behind a shoulder. Disassembly, however, is quite complicated.
- the object of the invention is to admit an arrangement of the type mentioned in the introduction, in which the holder of the return springs is designed in such a way that the springs can be removed and reinserted simply from the top of the housing.
- cylindrical housing recess over a partial length has an open only towards the pin insertion end of the housing recess towards the end groove into which the radially projecting nose of the pin after its insertion into the housing recess and corresponding rotation under the action of the return spring snaps into place like a bayonet.
- An advantageous embodiment of the invention is characterized in that the end of the pin which is supported on the contact carrier is flattened on part of its circumference and engages in a recess in the contact carrier, the cross section of which is adapted to the cross section of the second end of the pin which is formed by the flattening.
- a further embodiment of the invention can provide that in the cylindrical housing recess there is a second longitudinal groove which leads the nose of the pin when it is inserted into the housing recess, to which an extended swiveling of the nose to the first groove is located in the lower region of the housing recess enabling area connects.
- the return spring or the return springs can be easily assembled or disassembled in the housing.
- For assembly it is necessary to insert the pin with its nose through the groove and push it downward against the force of the return spring until the nose reaches the area that allows the nose to pivot. Then the pin is pivoted until the nose can get into the second groove, whereby the pin can be moved in its axis but is secured against rotation. Because of the flattening of the pin, it is also guided with respect to the contact carrier.
- the return springs When changing the bobbin, i.e. after removing the switching chambers, the return springs remain protected in the housing in the working position, while only the upper part of the pin protrudes outwards, i.e. towards the switching chamber.
- An electromagnetic switching device has a housing 10 with an upper housing part 11 and a housing base 13, a lateral extension 12 being formed on the latter, by means of which the switching device can be attached to a wall.
- a contact carrier 14 is guided in the housing 10, the contact bridges of which are not shown further.
- a magnetic core 16 in an E-cut is inserted in the housing 10, on the central leg of which a coil body 18 with a winding 20 is attached.
- the magnetic core 16 has pole faces 22.
- a magnet armature 24 is firmly connected in a manner not shown.
- the magnet armature 24 is attracted by the magnetic core 16 when the current flows through the winding 20, the pole faces 26 striking the pole faces 22.
- the contact carrier 14 is reset by means of armature return springs 28, only one of which is visible in FIG. 1, from the tightened position to the position shown in FIG.
- This return spring 28 rests with its one spring end 30 against a shoulder 32 in the housing 10, whereas the other end rests against a shoulder 34 on a pin 36 which can be moved in the switching direction.
- the pin 36 has a first section 38 with a comparatively small diameter, which extends through an opening 40 in the housing.
- a radially projecting nose 42 (see FIG. 3) is formed on one end lying at the bottom and engages behind a shoulder 44 or recess 44 in the assembled state (see FIGS. 1 and 2).
- the opening 40 is divided into two sections, one area 46 of which has a diameter which corresponds to the first section 38, a second groove 48 running through the opening 40 in its entirety being provided, the dimensions of which correspond to the nose 42. From the lower floor surface, the opening 40 widens into an enlarged region 41, which merges into a first groove 50 which runs up again, that is to say upwards towards the section 46 at a distance n from the lower floor surface paragraph 44 is limited. The area 41 merges into the section 46 via a step 43.
- the pin 36 has a second section 52 with an enlarged outer diameter compared to the first section 38, which merges into a third section 54, which also has an enlarged diameter compared to the section 52.
- the transition from section 52 to section 54 is formed by shoulder 34, against which return spring 28 bears.
- an extension 56 is provided in the area of the shoulder 32 and the outer diameter of the shoulder 52 approximately corresponds to the inner diameter of the spring windings.
- a recess 58 is provided on the contact carrier 14, which engages in the upper end 62 of the pin 36.
- the pin 36 is now pressed due to the pressure of the spring 28 in the direction of arrow A, whereby the contact carrier 14 is also spring-loaded in the direction of arrow A.
- section 52 of pin 36 has a triangular design, which cannot be seen from FIG. 1. If the switching chamber in the upper housing part 11 is removed with the contact carrier 14 when the bobbin is changed and the spring 28 presses the pin 36 in the direction of arrow A, then the nose acts together with the recess 44 as a stop for limiting the movement of the pin 36, so that the return spring 28 also the pin remains protected in the working position in the housing 10 during the coil change. The switching chamber can therefore be replaced without special care after changing the bobbin.
- the triangular shape of the pin 36 also serves to reduce the frictional force that the return spring 28 must also overcome.
- the pin 36 is received together with the return spring 28 in a recess 64 in the housing.
- the outer diameter of the third section 54 is approximately the same size as the inner diameter of the recess 64.
- the housing 10 is closed by a separating joint 66 separated from it - the upper housing part (switching chamber) 11, which surrounds the contact carrier 14.
- a segment-like notch 68 is provided in the pin 36, which runs perpendicular to the longitudinal axis of the pin 36 and into which a driver, not shown, engages a mechanical locking device which can be fitted as an additional device and is arranged between two switching devices.
- the pin 36 itself is shown in Figures 3 to 6. It can be seen in FIG. 6 that the pin 36 still has a flattened portion in its upper region, which is used for better guidance or to prevent rotation. For this purpose, a recess 58 is not shown.
- An extension 71 is formed in the area of the shoulder 34, offset by approximately 11 m at 90 ° C. with respect to the nose, which, starting from the third section 54 and at a distance parallel to the second section 52, points in the direction of the nose 42 and thereby a distance to the second section 52.
- This extension 71 protects the return spring 28, which would be visible from the outside in a slot 74 in the housing if the extension were not present.
- the electromagnetic contactor or the contact carrier of the same After placing the upper part of the housing, the electromagnetic contactor or the contact carrier of the same is fully assembled and the upper end 70 or 62 of the pin presses the contact carrier 14 into the off position.
- FIG. 9 shows a pin 80 whose upper region 70 with a flat or segment-like recess 68 is of the same design as the pin 36 of FIGS. 3 to 6.
- the lower part of the pin 80 is sleeve-like and has a blind hole 82 which extends approximately over half of the pin 80.
- a nose 84 is provided on the outer surface of the pin 80 which corresponds to the nose 42 of the pin 36.
- Figure 7 shows the housing without a pin.
- a recess 86 in the form of a blind hole can be seen, the inside diameter of which corresponds to the outside diameter of the pin 80.
- a groove 88 which extends radially and extends over the entire length of the recess 86 is provided for carrying out the lug 84 during assembly, the recess 92 having an enlarged region 94 in its lower region 92.
- the remaining part of the return spring 102 engages inside the pin 80 and is guided in the pin 80 in the blind hole 82.
- This area 94 is a segment of a circle, the included angle being an acute angle.
- This angle can of course also be an obtuse angle: it can also be 180 ° and more, whereby the angle must not be 360 °, because a residual wall part must always be provided to form the bottom 98 and to arrange the pin. This remaining wall part must absorb the force of the return spring and the shocks and vibrations that occur during switching, so that it must be dimensioned accordingly.
- a first groove 104 which, starting from the area 94, extends to the upper area of the housing, approximately to the tip of the pin 100.
- the lug 84 slides through the groove 88 and reaches the area 94.
- the pin 80 is then rotated in the area 94 until the lug 84 reaches the area of the groove 104.
- the pin is released and the nose 84 can — as shown in FIG. 8 — rest against the end of the groove 104 under the pressure of the return spring 102.
- the groove 104 then prevents the pin from twisting and jumping out.
- the advantage of the arrangements according to the invention is that both can be assembled and disassembled from the working position in both, with no special tools for locking and unlocking being required. Rather, one only has to move and twist the pin or pins together with the springs in the groove and then the pin is in its working position due to the spring, the notch 68 being aligned with the slot 74 of the housing, so that a coupling pin is on the outside , e.g. a mechanical lock, can engage in the notch 68 and can be positively and non-positively coupled with the pin. Disassembly is done in the same, very simple way.
- Figure 12 shows the housing 10 for simplicity in both versions from above with indicated bobbin 18; the recesses 64 and 86 for inserting the pins are arranged diagonally opposite one another. In this way, an optimal force distribution is achieved and the contact area on the contact carrier 14 is fully available for the contact assembly, since the return springs are arranged outside of this area.
