Definitions
- the invention relates to an electrical circuit breaker according to the preamble of patent claim 1.
- Such a switch has been proposed, for example, in the older, non-prepublished Swiss patent application 3 815/80.
- the current to be switched off commutates into a current path after opening the rated current contacts, in which it sequentially connects the coil, the arcing contact ring, which is designed as an arcing ring and is electrically conductively connected to the coil, and the second contact contact which is movably arranged with respect to the rated current contact Contact piece flows through.
- the coil through which the current to be switched off is provided with a ferromagnetic core, a strong magnetic field acts on the arc drawn between the erosion contacts, causing the arc to rotate rapidly around the erosion contact of the first contact piece, which is designed as an arc running ring.
- this strong magnetic field also makes it difficult to commutate large currents to be switched off from the nominal current path to the coil path.
- the switch according to the invention is characterized in that the switch-off arc can be blown particularly effectively because of the flow-wise advantageous arrangement of the erosion contacts.
- an effective additional load on the shutdown arc can also be achieved without the aid of external energy.
- a fixed contact 1 and a movable contact 2 are shown.
- the fixed contact 1 has a nominal current contact 3 and an erosion contact 4
- the movable contact 2 has a nominal current contact 5 and an erosion contact 6.
- the current is fed to the nominal current contacts 3 and 5 via current connections 7 and 8, respectively.
- Nominal current contact 3 and current connection 7 are connected via a current conductor 9 to the input of a cylindrical coil 10 surrounding the erosion contact 4.
- the coil 10 is connected on the output side via an electrical conductor 11 to a conductor 12 made of ferromagnetic material or to an arc running ring 13 which is attached to the end of the coil 10 and faces the movable contact piece 2 and is made of non-magnetizable material.
- the ferromagnetic conductor 12 is connected to the erosion contact 4 of the fixed contact 1 via a sliding contact 14.
- the erosion contact 4 has a ferromagnetic part 15 which, together with the ferromagnetic conductor 12 and a further ferromagnetic part 16, form a magnetic circuit in which an opening is provided at least at the location of the arcing ring 13 through which the magnetic field is generated by the shutdown current excited coil can escape.
- the erosion contact 4 is designed as a nozzle and, together with the ferromagnetic part 15, is arranged to be displaceable along the axis of the coil 10.
- the erosion contact 4 and thus the ferromagneti penetrate rule's part 15 the coil interior, while in the off position (see right half of Fig. 1) the erosion contact 4 and thus also the ferromagnetic part 15 passes through the coil interior, and the contact surface of the erosion contact 4 is flush with the arc race 13.
- the erosion contact 4 is held by a spring (not shown), which in the switch-on position causes the contact force at low currents.
- the contact force is generated far below the nominal current of the switch essentially by the magnetic force acting on the part 15, because enough current flows in parallel with the nominal current contacts via the coil 10.
- the movement of part 15 is limited in the off position by a stop 17.
- an insulating gas such as sulfur hexafluoride.
- the embodiment of the circuit breaker according to the invention shown in FIG. 2 differs from the embodiment of FIG. 1 essentially in that the erosion contact 4 is rigidly attached to the fixed contact 1 and is penetrated in the switch-on position by the erosion contact 6 of the movable contact 1, and that Ferromagnetic part 15 is designed as an insulating trailing nozzle and only partially contains ferromagnetic material.
- Part 15 may include a ferromagnetic material, the surface of which is coated with an insulating material, such as polytetrafluoroethylene.
- the switch-off current is commutated from the nominal current to the coil path with a low magnetic burden in accordance with the exemplary embodiment according to FIG. 1, so that when the arcing contacts 4, 6 are separated and the arc is drawn between these contacts, a strong magnetic field is located at the location of the arcing ring 13 is available, by means of which a rapid rotation of the arc 18 and consequently a strong heating of the extinguishing gases in the heating volume 21 is brought about.
- the insulating, ferromagnetic part 15 achieves a favorable extinguishing geometry and additionally forms a burn protection for the contact 4.
- the erosion contact 4 of the first contact piece 1 or the insulating ferromagnetic part 15 is a trailing nozzle, it is conceivable to close the nozzle openings of these parts by means of an insulating pin sliding in these openings. This results in a particularly effective pressure increase in the heating volume 21, so that there is a strong blowing of the arc 18, in particular when switching off low currents.
- An increase in the pressure of the extinguishing gas can also be achieved in that the magnetizable part 15 is piston-shaped at its end facing away from the second switching element 2, and this piston-shaped end in a cylinder filled with extinguishing gas, which is connected to the heating volume 21 via a channel. slides.
