Definitions

  • the invention relates to electrical pressure contacts and relates to a pressure contact with incorporated closing and opening power.
  • Such a contact can be used in various devices such as a modular system, a single-pole disconnectable switch, etc., but it is particularly recommended for the equipment of industrial sockets.
  • the flip-flop In electrical equipment comprising a rocker, whether it is an electrical outlet (see for example CH-A-356812) or a switch (such as the push-button switch of DE-B-1242735), the flip-flop performs the reverse movement when closing. Such an arrangement can make it possible to obtain a suitable breaking capacity but the closing power is insufficient.
  • the invention provides a third type of pressure contact capable of giving them the breaking capacity of a switch, by producing a rocker which works parallel to the line of the contact elements and which continues during the breaking, the trajectory followed on closing, without turning point.
  • each contact becomes a single-pole switch with sudden opening and closing and independent of the operator's operation.
  • the pressure contact intended to ensure the electrical connection between a conductive pin rigidly carried by the insulating support of a plug and a fixed stud electrically connected to an arrival terminal and disposed in a well formed in the support insulator of a base, when the plug pin is inserted axially into the well of the base, the bodies of the plug and of the base carrying combined guide and locking means to ensure.
  • an end pressure contact is intended to provide the electrical connection between a conductive pin 11 rigidly carried by the insulating support of a plug (not shown) and a fixed stud 12 electrically connected by a conductive blade 13 to a arrival terminal (not shown).
  • the fixed stud 12 is disposed in a well 14, formed in the insulating support 15 of a base not otherwise shown, and having an orifice 16 allowing the axial introduction of the pin 11.
  • This electrical connection between the elements 11 and 12 is produced by the guided longitudinal displacement, followed by a tilting, of a rigid conductive part 17 disposed in the well 14 and extending over part of the depth of said well 14.
  • the movable conductive part 17 is constituted by a plate (see in particular Figure 1), one end of which is bent twice at 90 ° to form a heel 18 in a U shape and the other end of which carries a stud 19 intended to cooperate with the fixed stud 12, has lateral appendages 20 giving it a T-shaped configuration.
  • a second torsion coil spring 24 is intended to act on the part 17, one of its end branches being applied against said part on its face facing the wall 23 and the tube being placed in the U formed by the heel 18.
  • the end branch of the spring 21 engaged in this U is disposed inside the coil of the spring 24 and thus ensures the maintenance of the latter.
  • the T-shaped end, with its stud 19, of the part 17, is located at a level below that of the legs 22, the axis of the contact being assumed to be vertical as on the drawing, and the second end branch of the spring 24 is free from any constraint.
  • the assembly is arranged in such a way that the stud 19 of the part 17 arrives at the level of the fixed stud 12, at the moment when the appendages 20 exceed the upper edge of the lugs 22 (FIG. 2C and FIG. 1). Then, under the action of the spring 24, the part 17 which is no longer retained by the lugs 22, tilts towards the wall of the well opposite the wall 23 and the stud 19 abuts abruptly against the fixed stud 22 ( Figure 2D) thus achieving the abrupt closure of the contact.
  • the pin 11 After unlocking, the pin 11 is extracted by simple axial traction. The movement is facilitated by the action of the spring 21 which, by holding the heel 18 against the end of the pin 11, tends to drive the latter out of the well.
  • the stud 19 At the start of the maneuver (FIG. 2E) the stud 19, still in elastic support against the fixed stud 12, by means of the spring 24, slides on said stud 12 thus causing self-cleaning of the contact surfaces.
  • the studs 12 and 19 are semi-cylindrical.
