Definitions

  • the present invention relates generally to switches of the type of those usually used for controlling the electrical supply of any circuit.
  • Such a switch comprises, in a housing, and under the control of an operating member, rocking key or push button for example, which, specific to its actuation, is available to the user, a set of parts commonly called mechanism, which forms the active part.
  • the present invention relates more particularly to the case where such a mechanism comprises, mounted movably between a fixed yoke and at least one fixed contact pad, at least one conductive brush, which is articulated to the fixed yoke, itself conductive, and which , under the control of the associated operating member, is capable of taking one or the other of two positions, one for which, by a support zone, it is in abutment against the fixed contact pad , the other for which, it is remote from it, either that, being a simple switch, it is not then in abutment against any other fixed contact pad or that it is in abutment against a simple rest pad, that is, for example being an inverter, it also bears against another fixed contact pad for this second position.
  • the fixed yoke usually comprises for this purpose a pivoting zone and the conductive brush itself comprises, for cooperation with this pivoting zone, and following for example a knife joint, a zone which, for simple convenience, will be referred to below as the contact zone, this zone normally effectively remaining permanently in contact with the pivoting zone of the fixed yoke.
  • Each of these twists translates in practice by the establishment of a mini-arc between the contact area of the conductive broom and the pivoting area of the fixed yoke, which gradually leads to degradation of the conductive broom and / or the fixed yoke, to the detriment of the desired current transmission.
  • the conductive broom for example, is thus progressively the object of a surface oxidation, and, when it is made of brass, it is jointly the object of a structural evolution due to a migration of zinc towards its surface.
  • the conductive brush generally has a loop configuration, and it is used for both '' other of its two positions, two distinct pivot zones, the conductive brush comprising, itself, for cooperation, each respectively, with these pivot zones, two distinct contact zones, and each of the pivot zones defining a pivot with the corresponding contact zone.

  • the switch mechanism according to the invention is characterized by the implementation of a real double pivot for the articulation of the conductive brush to the fixed yoke.
  • a double-pivot conductive brush switch mechanism according to the invention is thus advantageously able to allow switching of currents larger than a mechanism. comparable switch with only one pivot for the articulation of its conductive brush.
  • the two contact zones of the conductive brush are, permanently, apart from possible twists, in engagement, both, with the pivot zones of the fixed fork, whatever the position of this conductive broom.
  • loop configuration of the conductive brush advantageously combines with the implementation of two pivots for this conductive brush.
