Definitions

  • the invention relates to a double terminal, in the two floors of which the connections for the electrical conductors are each connected to busbar pieces, the mutually opposite inner ends of which are formed as contact areas and are located in a control room in which a separating switch between switch positions is movably held in the terminal housing, which carries one contact bridge per floor for opening and closing the current paths formed by the conductor rail pieces in the floors.
  • the isolating contact is a translationally movable back and forth, which protrudes from the terminal housing with a handle at the top.
  • the contact bridges are arranged on the slide in relation to the contact areas of the busbar pieces on the two floors so that in one switch position of the slide the busbar pieces on one floor are connected by the affected contact bridge and thus this current path is closed, while the current path in the other Floor is then open, while in the other switching position of the slide with respect to the open position and the closed position of the current paths in the two floors is reversed.
  • a disadvantage of this configuration is that the switch position of the disconnector slide is checked difficult by inspection and is therefore unreliable.
  • the slide is due to its translational switching movement and due to the fact that only relatively small switching paths in such two switching positions in the two switching positions from the terminal housing protrude only slightly differently, whereby it should be borne in mind that very often in switchgear a large number of such double disconnect terminals side by side on mounting rails or the like are snapped on.
  • Another disadvantage is that the possibility of wiring the two floors is relatively low. In many cases, further switching options, that is to say an increased number of possible switching combinations, would be very desirable in terms of their function. The problem of checking by inspection would be exacerbated in the known slide, for example, by the presence of three different switching positions.
  • the present invention has for its object to provide a double disconnect terminal of the generic type, which enables a larger switching combination with a common isolating contact and thereby ensures even an increased number of switching positions of the isolating contact that these different switching positions can be easily recognized from the outside by inspection.
  • the isolating contact is a rocker arm which is rotatably mounted in the switch compartment on the terminal housing and can be pivoted between three switching positions, and in one of the two floors the contact areas of the two busbar ends are extended to form a further switching position.
  • the double disconnect terminal shown in the figures has a housing 1 made of electrically insulating plastic, in which busbar pieces 2 and 3 are inserted from an open side in a lower level.
  • the conductor rail pieces 2 and 3 are parts of the current path of the lower one Floor.
  • the conductor rail pieces 2 and 3 have angled contact tabs 4, against which the incoming electrical conductors and the outgoing electrical conductors can be clamped on the one hand by means of connections 5 likewise inserted into the terminal housing 1.
  • connections 5 likewise inserted into the terminal housing 1.
  • corresponding conventional screw connections 5 for connecting the electrical conductors to the contact lugs 4 are only shown in FIG. 1 on the right-hand side of the lower level and the upper level. On the left side, such connections are fitted on both floors.
  • the busbar pieces 2 and 3 of the lower floor form contact areas 6, which in the exemplary embodiment shown are formed by the rounded ends of these busbar pieces. These contact areas 6 of the conductor rail pieces 2 and 3 protrude into a switching space 7 formed in the central area of the terminal housing 1.
  • conductor rail pieces 8 and 9 are inserted in the upper level of the double disconnect terminal block, which in turn have angled contact tabs 10 at their outer ends for interacting with connections 5 for connecting the electrical conductors and which in turn have contact areas 11 and 12 at their mutually opposite inner ends which, however, have extensions 13 and 14 in the sense of forming a further switching position in the manner to be explained in more detail below.
  • These contact areas 11 and 12 of the conductor rail pieces 8 and 9 on the upper floor also protrude into the Control room 7.
  • the busbar sections 8 and 9 on the upper floor are part of the upper current path of the double disconnect terminal block.
  • a separating switching element which is designed as a rocker arm 15 which is pivotably mounted on a pin 16 formed on the closed side wall of the terminal housing 1 in the control room 7.
  • the rocker arm 15 has at its upper end a handle 17 protruding from the top of the terminal housing 1, in which a plug hole 18 is expediently provided, into which, for example, a screwdriver for actuating the rocker arm 15 in the sense of its transfer into the various possible switching positions (indicated in Figure 1) can be inserted.
  • the rocker arm 15 now has a contact bridge 19 or 20 for each floor.
  • the contact bridges 19, 20 have contact areas 21 at their outer ends, which correspond to the respective switching position of the rocker arm 15 with the contact areas 6 of the lower conductor rail pieces 2 and 7 projecting into the switching space 7 3 or 11 and 12 of the upper busbar pieces 8 and 9 interact or release in the sense of the closing and opening of the current paths in the two floors.
  • the rocker arm 15 has three different switching positions, each with a different circuit function for the current paths in the upper and lower floors.
  • a middle switching position of the lever 15 shown in FIG. 1 the contact bridges 19 and 20 are essentially parallel to the conductor rail pieces on the upper and lower floors.
  • the contact areas 21 of the lower contact bridge 20 contact the contact areas 6 of the busbar pieces 2 and 3 of the lower level.
  • the contact areas 21 of the upper contact bridge 19 make contact with a part of the contact area 11 or 12 of these contact pieces located in the extension of the conductor rail pieces 8 and 9 on the upper level.
  • both the upper and the lower current path are closed.
  • this further switching position is therefore, taking into account the pivoting movement of the upper contact bridges 19 together with the rocker arm 15, the extension 13 of the busbar 11 is directed downwards, while the extension 14 of the busbar piece 12 is directed upwards.
  • the lower current path is thus open, while the upper current path is closed.
  • the contact bridges 19 and 20 are fastened on fastening pins 22 on the rocker arm 15, which is made of an electrically insulating material.
  • the contact bridges 19, 20 are expediently formed in two layers, for example by folding a one-piece blank in its longitudinal direction, for example from a brass or bronze sheet, the contact regions 21 of the contact bridges 19 and 20 then being very much further
  • Expedient embodiment are designed as spring contacts 23 which can accommodate the narrow flag-like contact areas 6 or 11 and 12 of the busbar pieces 2 and 3 or 8 and 9 in the closed switching position between them. This configuration creates a very reliable force conclusive contacting by a clearly defined and predetermined spring force, this contact force determined by the spring force also not being advantageously transmitted or absorbed via insulating material.
  • the upper contact bridge 19 and the lower contact bridge 20 are also arranged above or below the bearing point of the rocker arm 15 on the pin 16, two further expedient embodiments with different distances therefrom, the lower contact bridge 20 being at a smaller distance from the axis of rotation than the upper contact bridge 19.
  • the busbar pieces 2, 3 and 8 and 9 are expedient, as shown in the figures, arranged upright in the terminal housing 1. Correspondingly, flag-like contact areas 6 and 11, 12 result, so to speak, for interaction with the overlapping spring contacts 23 in the contact area 21 of the contact bridges 19 and 20. It is also necessary, in the sense of the usual mode of operation of isolating terminals, that the busbar pieces 2 and 3 and 8 and 9 all have their own connection option for a test plug. In this sense, the busbar pieces 8 and 9 of the upper floor have cross legs 24 pointing upwards, while the busbar pieces 2 and 3 of the lower floor have cross legs 25 pointing upward, which are in the crossing area with the top track pieces 8 and 9 are of course electrically stripped from these. The upper ends of the cross legs 24 and 25 are all angled and provided in this bend with a plug opening (not shown) in such a way that, as illustrated in FIG. 1, test plugs can be inserted for test purposes.
  • FIGS. 1, 2 and 3 show that the three different switching positions of the rocker arm 15 can be recognized well and reliably from the outside by inspection, due to the clearly different position of the handle 17, even if one imagines it that a plurality of such double disconnect terminals are arranged side by side in the context of a switchgear.
  • latches are assigned to the switching positions in a further expedient embodiment.
  • a locking pin 26 is formed on the clamp housing 1 on the swivel path of the lower end of the rocker arm 15, which engages with three recesses 27 provided in the lower edge region of the rocker arm in accordance with the three different swivel positions.
  • Another additional securing option is to provide a latching option also in the upper area of the terminal housing 1 and in the handling area of the rocker arm 15. You can do this, for example allow the handle 17 protruding from the housing 1 to overlap the upper edge region 28 of the terminal housing 1 in the area of the control room 7 and provide a locking pin 19 on the underside in this overlapping region of the handle 17.
