Definitions

  • the invention relates to a circuit breaker, in particular a circuit breaker with fuse, with at least one fuse link, with a line that supplies the current and a line that carries the current away from it, each line having two separate, fixed contact tracks, to which two movable contact bridges are assigned are, which contact the respective contact track diametrically in their switched-on position, the contact bridges being received by at least one actuating slide.
  • the load switch is particularly intended for use as a switch fuse unit, motor protection switch, disconnector, etc. in the area of low-voltage systems.
  • a load switch designed as a so-called fuse switch disconnector which has three NH fuse links with the corresponding current-supplying and current-dissipating lines and contact bridges. It is disadvantageous there that only one contact bridge is assigned to each line, which is pressed against the contact tracks by the force of a spring when the load switch is switched on. This carries the risk of permanent vibrations of the contact bridge and thus merging with the contact paths in itself.
  • a load switch of the type mentioned in which a single actuating slide is provided, which is displaceable in the plane of the contact surfaces of the contact bridges, which requires a wide design of the load switch.
  • the contact bridges fixed in the actuating slide are pushed onto the free ends of the contact tracks, the contacts closing at different times due to the staggered arrangement of the contact tracks of a line.
  • the object is achieved in that two actuating slides arranged parallel to one another are provided, which can be moved in opposite directions by means of a switching mechanism, the contact tracks being arranged perpendicular to the direction of movement of the actuating slides and each actuating slide receiving a contact bridge with axial play parallel to the contact tracks assigned to the respective line, further that the two contact bridges of the respective line form a pair of contact bridges, the one contact bridge of the respective contact bridge pair being assigned to one actuating slide and the other contact bridge of this contact bridge pair to the other actuating slide, and that when the actuating slide is actuated, the contact bridges of the respective contact bridge pair move towards one another and in their switch-on positions connect the intermediate contact tracks to each other under spring preload.
  • the current passed through the contact tracks is thus conducted in parallel in two partial flows through the contact bridges in the closed state of the load switch, both in the area of the line supplying the current and of the line discharging the current.
  • the springs acting on the contact bridges therefore only have to be designed for the force that is necessary to secure the continuous current through the contact bridges, as a result of which the drive forces to be applied by the switching mechanism can be kept low.
  • the actuating slides When the load switch is switched on, the actuating slides are moved towards one another in the longitudinal direction by means of the switching mechanism, the contact bridges being positioned in such a way that in the switched-on position of the actuating slides they contact the contact tracks with an axial play predetermined by the actuating slides and thus solely on account of the spring forces acting on them are pressed against the contact tracks.
  • the load switch When the load switch is opened, the actuating slides move them away from the contact tracks due to the positive connection to the contact bridges.
  • the spring tension of the contact bridges is expediently generated by compression springs which are supported on the contact bridges and either on the actuating slide associated with the respective contact bridge or on a stationary part of the load switch.
  • the contact bridges assigned to the respective line advantageously reach their switching positions at different times, the respective contact bridge making simultaneous contact with the assigned contact tracks. Due to the switching positions being reached at different times, one contact bridge functions as an erase contact bridge and the other as a permanent contact bridge, the contact course of the permanent contact bridge being leading when switching off and lagging when switching on. This results in a quasi de-energized switching for the permanent contact bridge, which means that this contact bridge remains unloaded and therefore has a constantly low contact resistance for the continuous current supply.
  • the free ends of the contact tracks are advantageously U-shaped and the outer legs of the contact tracks with their U facing each other interact with the contact bridges. This design ensures that when the contact bridges are opened, an arc that arises is pushed outwards by the natural blowing action, that is to say pushed away from the contact surfaces, into an extinguishing system that may be present.
  • the switching mechanism comprises a rotor which can be rotated via a pitch circle, a first connecting rod in front of the apex and a second connecting rod for the latter on the circumferential region of the rotor, based on its rotation each associated actuating slide are articulated.
  • a plurality of load switches in modular design preferably form a load switching element in the form of a strip or isolator, which has a common switching mechanism.
  • a first component of the module is advantageously formed by a housing that accommodates an NH fuse link, two conductors, each of which is assigned two contact tracks, two contact bridges, two actuating slides and two connecting rods, and a second component of the module by another housing , which includes the rear derailleur.
  • three first module components are provided which are coupled directly to the second module component or indirectly to one another by means of connecting rods. Up to four first modules are advantageously provided.
  • two actuating slides 13 and 14 are slidably mounted perpendicular to the contact bridges 11 and 12, interacting with one another Stops of the actuating slide 13 and 14 limit their axial relative movement.
  • the two contact bridges 11 can be moved by means of the associated actuating slide 13 and the two contact bridges 12 can be moved by means of the assigned actuating slide 14.
  • the contact bridges 11 and 12 penetrate guide gaps 15 arranged in the transverse to the longitudinal extension of the actuating slides 13 and 14 and are prestressed in the closing direction by means of compression springs 16 and 18 against stops 38 of the actuating slides 13 and 14.
  • compression springs 16 and 18 against stops 38 of the actuating slides 13 and 14.
  • FIG. 1 shows the position of the contact bridges 11 and 12 when the safety switch strip is switched; in the relevant position of the actuating slides 13 and 14, only the compression springs 16 and 18 act on the contact bridges 11 and 12.
  • the housing 6 is open on both sides in the longitudinal extent of the actuating slides 13 and 14 and the actuating slides 13, 14 have holes 19 to be described in more detail with regard to their function in the region of the respective two ends.
  • the module housing 6 of the module 3 also consists of two module halves which accommodate a rotor 21 which can be rotated about an axis 20 between them. Its swivel range is limited to approximately 40 ° by a stationary stop 22 protruding into the path of two projections 23 of the rotor 21.
  • an adjusting lever 39 which is likewise rotatably mounted in the axis 20, can be pivoted between two inner rotor stops 40.
  • the end of the actuating lever 39 facing away from the rotor 21 is provided with a pin 27.
  • a pivot lever 24 is pivotable about an axis 25 arranged parallel to the axis 20 and to the pin 27.
  • the end of the pivot lever 24 near the rotor has an elongated hole 26 which extends in the longitudinal direction thereof and through which the pin 27 passes.
  • the respective connecting rod 32 is pivotally pivoted about the bearing point 30 in the plane of the rotor 21, for example by inserting a pin of this connecting rod 32 into a bore in the bearing point 30 of the rotor 21, and the other end of the connecting rod 32 is with a pin provided which passes through the associated bore 19 of the actuating slide 13.
  • the pins of the connecting rod 33 penetrate the bore in the bearing point 31 of the rotor 21 and the associated bore 19 of the actuating slide 14.
  • the bearing point 31 is at a slight distance from that of the actuating slide 13 and in the switched-on state 14 assigned vertex of the Rotor 21, while the other bearing point 30 is arranged on the other side of the vertex at a greater distance from this.
  • the bearing point 30 In the open position, in which the stop 22 comes into contact with the other projection 23 of the rotor 21, the bearing point 30 is still on the same side of the apex but closer to it, while the other bearing point 31 has moved away from the apex .
  • the two contact bridges 11 and 12 initially move by the dimension x to the contact tracks 7 and 10, the contact bridge 12 having the function of an erase contact switching to the contact tracks 7 and 10.
  • the contact bridge 11 finally bridges the remaining distance to the contact tracks 7 and 10 and likewise connects to them.
  • the fuse switch is actually switched by means of the actuating lever 29, which pivots the pivot lever 24 about its axis 25 via an eccentric section of the pivot axis 28.
  • the control lever 39 is counteracted the force of the compression spring moves away from the stop 40 assigned to the switching position.
  • the compression spring 42 relaxes and the adjusting lever 39 is suddenly pivoted into contact with the other stop 40 and then via the further pivoting movement of the adjusting lever 39 due to the relaxation of the compression spring 42, the rotor 21 pivoted into the other switching position.
  • FIGS. 3 to 5 clarify details relating to the contact bridges 11 and 12 which come into contact diametrically with the contact tracks 7 and 10.
  • the contact bridges 11 and 12 which represent plate-shaped components have two flat contact nipples 34 on their sides facing the respective contact tracks 7 and 10 and between these each have three guide grooves 35 on both sides, which cooperate with the actuating slides 13 and 14. This is illustrated in detail in FIG. 3, which shows the two housing halves 6 of the module into which the two actuating slides 13 and 14 are inserted, which engage in the grooves 35 of the contact bridges 11 and 12.
  • FIGS. 1 and 2 finally illustrate that a plurality of modules 1 having the NH fuse-links 2 can be arranged on one side of the module 3 having the switching mechanism.
  • the respective facing ends of the actuating slides 13 and 14 of adjacent modules 1 are connected via connecting rods 36 and 37 designed correspondingly to the connecting rods 32 and 33.
