Definitions
- the invention relates to a cover for the front of electrical switching devices with rocker arm actuation, in particular low-voltage circuit breakers, according to the preamble of claim 1.
- the front of the switch housing can be covered with a cover, which can have a slot-shaped opening for the rocker arm of the switch lock and on both sides of it fastening devices for a mechanical rotary drive or a motor drive.
- the cover can also cover spaces for shunt releases and / or auxiliary switches and the like arranged on both sides of the rocker arm on the switch housing.
- Such covers are usually screwed to the switch housing, which requires a comparatively large assembly effort.
- To open the cover for example to replace the shunt release and / or auxiliary switch located next to the rocker arm on the switch housing, the screw connections must be loosened completely. The cover is then put down with the screws wherever there is space. If the assembly work is interrupted, the cover and the screws can be lost. Also, with simultaneous assembly work on several side-by-side switchgear, the cover of the device can be easily confused, which must be avoided in particular if the switchgear is designed differently and certain labels and symbols, different from switchgear to switchgear, are attached to the cover.
- a comparatively large amount of assembly work is also necessary with such screwed covers if, for example, a mechanical rotary drive for the rocker arm attached to the cover is to be replaced by a motor drive.
- the rotary drive can also be partially screwed directly to the switch housing and partially to a mounting plate or control cabinet door.
- a cover which is non-releasably attached to the inside of the switch housing by means of laterally projecting bearing legs with bearing openings. After loosening a screw connection, the cover can be pivoted against the prestressing force of an elastic and sealing means for viewing the contact spaces by an acute angle and swings back into its closed position when released. There is therefore no use of this cover for installing or mounting shunt releases and / or auxiliary switches.
- a rotary drive or a motor drive would have to be fastened outside the cover, since the cover neither has suitable fastening options for it nor does it encompass the rocker arm or is adjacent to it.
- the invention has for its object to provide a cover according to the preamble of claim 1, in particular with a mounting option for rotary actuators, that on the one hand the assembly work when fastening and opening the cover are simplified and on the other hand the risk of confusing covers of different types of switching devices as well the risk of losing the cover is largely avoided in the simplest possible and assembly-friendly manner.
- the invention has the advantage that the cover is held by the rotary bearing on the switch housing with fewer screws essentially captive, without hindering the installation and assembly of suitable shunt releases and / or auxiliary switches in the spaces provided next to the rocker arm of the switching device when the cover is open .
- the bearing legs of the cover are designed as resilient bearing clips that can be snapped into the interlocking pivot pins and pivot openings on the side walls of the switch housing, the cover can be easily mounted on the switch housing at any time and also removed again. This is particularly advantageous if, for example, a mechanical rotary drive for the rocker arm of the key switch is attached to the cover and is to be replaced by a motor drive.
- the cover has a step-like protruding planar approach in the area of the fastening of the rotary drive as a base for the housing of the rotary drive, so that the assembly unit of the cover and the mechanical rotary drive can be replaced by a corresponding other structural unit of the cover and motor drive by simply clipping onto the switch housing.
- the internal dimensions of the housing of the rotary drive match the external dimensions of the step-shaped approach correspond so that the housing overlaps the approach edge.
- the lid can have several openings or openings for screws for fastening the rotary drive on the inside of the step-shaped extension on both sides of the recess for the rocker arm of the switching lock for the switch lock, which are closed towards the front of the cover by thin, film-like wall parts suitable for puncturing.
- the cover below the cover of the switch lock and the spaces for shunt releases and / or auxiliary switches has a cover panel with window-like openings for reading the setting values on a trigger block arranged below the switch lock.
- the cover surfaces on both sides of the rocker arm can be used to hold identification and rating plates, while the cover block below can be used to protect the release block underneath against unauthorized manipulation in a simple manner.
- the cover can also have an opening on one of its two longitudinal edges for the passage of a sealing wire, which makes it possible to detect an unauthorized opening of the cover.
- the cover is made of a resilient, dimensionally stable plastic, such as polycarbonate or polyester thermoplastic, which gives the angled legs with the pivot bearings sufficient strength for clipping onto the switch housing.
- the bearing legs of the cover can also have end edges that are angled with respect to the front of the cover and come into contact with vertical counter-stop edges on the side walls of the switch housing when the cover is open horizontally, which is set back against the front of the switch housing next to the interlocking pivot pins and pivot bearing openings for the bearing legs are.
- the opened lid is securely held in the horizontal position and can be used as a storage for small parts, auxiliary switches and the like during assembly work to serve.
- these stops can be omitted if the rotary drive is too heavy or if the cover is subjected to a greater load, so that the cover can be freely folded down to the fully open position on the switch housing.
- FIG. 1 to 3 show an electrical switching device 1 with rocker arm actuation, namely a low-voltage circuit breaker, with a cover 2 on the front of the switch housing 3, which is formed with a slot-shaped opening 4 for the rocker arm 5 of the switch lock and also has fastening devices for a mechanical rotary drive 31 or a motor drive.
- the cover 2 is also dimensioned such that it also covers spaces 6, 7 arranged on both sides of the rocker arm 5 on the switch housing 3 for shunt releases and / or auxiliary switches and the like.
- the cover 2 is formed with two parallel bearing legs 8, 9, which are angled by 90 ° with respect to the cover plane and the switch housing 3 laterally in a lower region reach over that the cover 2 can be folded down from the front 13 of the switch housing 3 by a pivot bearing 10 with coaxially interlocking pivot pins and pivot bearing openings on the two bearing legs 8, 9 and on the two housing side walls 11, 12.
- the two parallel bearing legs 8, 9 of the cover 2 are designed as resilient bearing clips, which can be snapped into place with the interlocking pivot pins and pivot bearing openings on the side walls 11, 12 of the switch housing 3.
- pivot bearing 10 can either pivot from the side walls 11, 12 of the switch housing 3 pivot pins protrude outwards, which engage in corresponding pivot bearing openings on the two bearing legs 8, 9.
- coaxial rotary pivot pins 14, 15 each protrude inward from the bearing legs 8, 9 and engage in corresponding pivot bearing openings on the side walls 11, 12 of the switch housing 3.
- the cover 2 has a step-like protruding planar extension 32, which serves as the bottom for the housing 33 of the rotary drive 31.
- the inside dimensions of the housing 33 of the rotary drive 31 correspond to the outer dimensions of the step-shaped extension 32 such that the housing 33 overlaps the extension 32 on the edge.
- the cover 2 is advantageously made of a resilient, particularly dimensionally stable plastic, such as polycarbonate or polyester thermoplastic, and has on its inside on both sides of the opening 4 for the rocker arm 5 of the key switch several openings 30 or openings for screws for fastening the rotary drive 31 for the Switch lock on, which are closed towards the lid front by thin, film-like wall parts suitable for puncturing.
- the cover 2 has a cover panel 20 with window-like openings 21, 22 for reading the setting values on a release block 23 (FIGS. 1 to 3) which is below the Switch lock is arranged and has, for example, two knobs 24, 25 with setting marks and rotary slot 26 for screwdrivers such that the setting marks on the knobs 24, 25 can be read through the openings 21, 22 on the cover panel 20 with the cover 2 closed.
- lugs 27, 28 protrude into these openings 21, 22 from below in a known manner, which, when the cover 2 is closed, cover the rotary slots 26 on the rotary buttons 24, 25.

Description
Die Erfindung betrifft einen Deckel für die Frontseite von elektrischen Schaltgeräten mit Kipphebelbetätigung, insbesondere Niederspannungs-Leistungsschaltern, nach dem Oberbegriff des Anspruches 1.The invention relates to a cover for the front of electrical switching devices with rocker arm actuation, in particular low-voltage circuit breakers, according to the preamble of
Bei elektrischen Schaltgeräten mit Kipphebelbetätigung, und insbesondere bei Niederspannungs-Leistungsschaltern kann die Frontseite des Schaltergehäuses mit einem Deckel abgedeckt sein, der einen schlitzförmigen Durchbruch für den Kipphebel des Schaltschlosses sowie beiderseits davon Befestigungseinrichtungen für einen mechanischen Drehantrieb oder einen Motorantrieb aufweisen kann. Der Deckel kann außerdem auch beiderseits des Kipphebels am Schaltergehäuse angeordnete Räume für Arbeitsstromauslöser und/oder Hilfsschalter und dergleichen abdecken.In electrical switchgear with rocker arm actuation, and especially in low-voltage circuit breakers, the front of the switch housing can be covered with a cover, which can have a slot-shaped opening for the rocker arm of the switch lock and on both sides of it fastening devices for a mechanical rotary drive or a motor drive. The cover can also cover spaces for shunt releases and / or auxiliary switches and the like arranged on both sides of the rocker arm on the switch housing.
Derartige Deckel sind üblicherweise am Schaltergehäuse verschraubt, was einen vergleichsweise großen Montageaufwand erfordert. Zum öffnen des Deckels, beispielsweise für den Austausch der neben dem Kipphebel am Schaltergehäuse angeordneten Arbeitsstromauslöser und/oder Hilfsschalter, müssen die Verschraubungen jeweils vollständig gelöst werden. Der Deckel wird dann mit den Schrauben dort, wo gerade Platz ist, abgelegt. Bei einer Unterbrechung der Montagearbeiten können der Deckel und die Schrauben verlorengehen. Auch können bei gleichzeitigen Montagearbeiten an mehreren nebeneinander montierten Schaltgeräten die Deckel der Geräte leicht verwechselt werden, was insbesondere dann vermieden werden muß, wenn die Schaltgeräte unterschiedlich ausgelegt sind und auf dem Deckel bestimmte, von Schaltgerät zu Schaltgerät unterschiedliche Beschriftungen und Symbole angebracht sind.Such covers are usually screwed to the switch housing, which requires a comparatively large assembly effort. To open the cover, for example to replace the shunt release and / or auxiliary switch located next to the rocker arm on the switch housing, the screw connections must be loosened completely. The cover is then put down with the screws wherever there is space. If the assembly work is interrupted, the cover and the screws can be lost. Also, with simultaneous assembly work on several side-by-side switchgear, the cover of the device can be easily confused, which must be avoided in particular if the switchgear is designed differently and certain labels and symbols, different from switchgear to switchgear, are attached to the cover.
Ein vergleichsweise großer Montageaufwand ist bei solchen verschraubten Deckeln auch dann erforderlich, wenn beispielsweise ein am Deckel befestigter mechanischer Drehantrieb für den Kipphebel durch einen Motorantrieb ersetzt werden soll. Der Drehantrieb kann auch ebenso wie der Motorantrieb teilweise direkt mit dem Schaltergehäuse und teilweise auf einer Montageplatte oder Schaltschranktür verschraubt sein.A comparatively large amount of assembly work is also necessary with such screwed covers if, for example, a mechanical rotary drive for the rocker arm attached to the cover is to be replaced by a motor drive. Like the motor drive, the rotary drive can also be partially screwed directly to the switch housing and partially to a mounting plate or control cabinet door.
Nach der US-A-3 054 880 ist ein Deckel bekannt, der mittels seitlich abstehender Lagerschenkel mit Lageröffnungen an den Innenseiten des Schaltergehäuses unlösbar befestigt ist. Nach Lösen einer Schraubverbindung läßt sich der Deckel entgegen der Vorspannkraft eines elastischen und abdichtenden Mittels zur Einsichtnahme der Kontakträume um einen spitzen Winkel verschwenken und schwenkt beim Loslassen in seine geschlossene Lage zurück. Eine Verwendung dieses Deckels zum Einbauen oder Montieren von Arbeitsstromauslösern und/oder Hilfsschaltern ist daher nicht gegeben. Ein Drehantrieb oder ein Motorantrieb müßte außerhalb des Deckels befestigt werden, da der Deckel weder geeignete Befestigungsmöglichkeiten dafür aufweist noch den Kipphebel umgreift oder diesem benachbart ist.According to US-A-3 054 880, a cover is known which is non-releasably attached to the inside of the switch housing by means of laterally projecting bearing legs with bearing openings. After loosening a screw connection, the cover can be pivoted against the prestressing force of an elastic and sealing means for viewing the contact spaces by an acute angle and swings back into its closed position when released. There is therefore no use of this cover for installing or mounting shunt releases and / or auxiliary switches. A rotary drive or a motor drive would have to be fastened outside the cover, since the cover neither has suitable fastening options for it nor does it encompass the rocker arm or is adjacent to it.
Der Erfindung liegt die Aufgabe zugrunde, einen Deckel nach dem Oberbegriff des Anspruches 1, insbesondere mit einer Befestigungsmöglichkeit für Drehantriebe, so auszubilden, daß einerseits die Montagearbeiten beim Befestigen und Öffnen des Deckels vereinfacht werden und andererseits die Gefahr einer Verwechselung von Deckeln verschiedenartiger Schaltgeräte ebenso wie die Gefahr des Verlustes der Deckel in einer möglichst einfachen und montagefreundlichen Weise weitgehend vermieden wird.The invention has for its object to provide a cover according to the preamble of
Diese Aufgabe wird gemäß der Erfindung durch die Merkmale des Anspruches 1 gelöst. Besonders vorteilhafte Weiterbildungen der Erfindung sind den Ansprüchen 2 bis 6 zu entnehmen.This object is achieved according to the invention by the features of
Die Erfindung hat den Vorteil, daß der Deckel durch die Drehlagerung am Schaltergehäuse mit weniger Schrauben im wesentlichen unverlierbar gehalten ist, ohne bei aufgeklapptem Deckel den Einbau und die Montage geeigneter Arbeitsstromauslöser und/oder Hilfsschalter an den dafür vorgesehenen Räumen neben dem Kipphebel des Schaltgerätes zu behindern. Dadurch, daß die Lagerschenkel des Deckels als federnde Lagerklipse ausgebildet sind, die mit ineinandergreifenden Drehlagerzapfen und Drehlageröffnungen an den Seitenwänden des Schaltergehäuses einrastbar sind, kann der Deckel jederzeit leicht am Schaltergehäuse montiert und auch wieder demontiert werden. Dies ist insbesondere dann vorteilhaft, wenn z.B. am Deckel ein mechanischer Drehantrieb für den Kipphebel des Schaltschlosses befestigt ist, und durch einen Motorantrieb ersetzt werden soll. Der Deckel weist im Bereich der Befestigung des Drehantriebes einen stufenförmig hervortretenden flächigen Ansatz als Boden für das Gehäuse des Drehantriebes auf, so daß die Montageeinheit von Deckel und mechanischem Drehantrieb durch eine entsprechende andere Baueinheit von Deckel und Motorantrieb durch einfaches Anklipsen am Schaltergehäuse ersetzt werden kann. Vorteilhaft für eine sichere Befestigung des Drehantriebes am Deckel ist es dabei, daß die Innenabmessungen des Gehäuses des Drehantriebes mit den Außenabmessungen des stufenförmigen Ansatzes derart korrespondieren, daß das Gehäuse den Ansatz randseitig übergreift.The invention has the advantage that the cover is held by the rotary bearing on the switch housing with fewer screws essentially captive, without hindering the installation and assembly of suitable shunt releases and / or auxiliary switches in the spaces provided next to the rocker arm of the switching device when the cover is open . Characterized in that the bearing legs of the cover are designed as resilient bearing clips that can be snapped into the interlocking pivot pins and pivot openings on the side walls of the switch housing, the cover can be easily mounted on the switch housing at any time and also removed again. This is particularly advantageous if, for example, a mechanical rotary drive for the rocker arm of the key switch is attached to the cover and is to be replaced by a motor drive. The cover has a step-like protruding planar approach in the area of the fastening of the rotary drive as a base for the housing of the rotary drive, so that the assembly unit of the cover and the mechanical rotary drive can be replaced by a corresponding other structural unit of the cover and motor drive by simply clipping onto the switch housing. For a secure attachment of the rotary drive to the cover, it is advantageous that the internal dimensions of the housing of the rotary drive match the external dimensions of the step-shaped approach correspond so that the housing overlaps the approach edge.
Der Deckel kann an der Innenseite des stufenförmigen Ansatzes beiderseits der Ausnehmung für den Kipphebel des Schaltschlosses mehrere Öffnungen oder Durchbrüche für Schrauben zum Befestigen des Drehantriebes für das Schaltschloß aufweisen, die zur Deckelfront hin durch dünne, filmartige, zum Durchstoßen geeignete Wandungsteile verschlossen sind.The lid can have several openings or openings for screws for fastening the rotary drive on the inside of the step-shaped extension on both sides of the recess for the rocker arm of the switching lock for the switch lock, which are closed towards the front of the cover by thin, film-like wall parts suitable for puncturing.
Vorteilhaft ist es ferner, wenn der Deckel unterhalb der Abdeckung des Schaltschlosses und der Räume für Arbeitsstromauslöser und/oder Hilfsschalter eine Abdeckblende mit fensterartigen Durchbrüchen zum Ablesen der Einstellwerte an einem unterhalb des Schaltschlosses angeordneten Auslöseblock aufweist. Die Deckelflächen beiderseits des Kipphebels können zur Aufnahme von Kennzeichnungs- und Leistungsschildern dienen, während durch die Abdeckblende der darunter angeordnete Auslöseblock gegen unbefugte Manipulationen in einfacher Weise geschützt werden kann. Hierfür kann der Deckel nach einem weiteren Merkmal der Erfindung auch an einer seiner beiden Längskanten eine Öffnung zum Durchführen eines Plombierdrahtes aufweisen, der ein unbefugtes Öffnen des Deckels erkennbar macht.It is also advantageous if the cover below the cover of the switch lock and the spaces for shunt releases and / or auxiliary switches has a cover panel with window-like openings for reading the setting values on a trigger block arranged below the switch lock. The cover surfaces on both sides of the rocker arm can be used to hold identification and rating plates, while the cover block below can be used to protect the release block underneath against unauthorized manipulation in a simple manner. For this purpose, according to a further feature of the invention, the cover can also have an opening on one of its two longitudinal edges for the passage of a sealing wire, which makes it possible to detect an unauthorized opening of the cover.
Besonders vorteilhaft ist es weiterhin, daß der Deckel aus einem federnd elastischen, formbeständigen Kunststoff, wie Polycarbonat oder Polyester-Thermoplast, besteht, der den abgewinkelten Schenkeln mit den Drehlagerungen eine ausreichende Festigkeit zum Anklipsen am Schaltergehäuse verleiht.It is also particularly advantageous that the cover is made of a resilient, dimensionally stable plastic, such as polycarbonate or polyester thermoplastic, which gives the angled legs with the pivot bearings sufficient strength for clipping onto the switch housing.
Die Lagerschenkel des Deckels können auch endseitige, gegenüber der Deckelfront abgewinkelte Anschlagkanten aufweisen, die bei bis zur Horizontalen geöffnetem Deckel an senkrechten Gegenanschlagkanten an den Seitenwänden des Schaltergehäuses zur Anlage kommen, die gegenüber der Frontseite des Schaltergehäuses neben den ineinandergreifenden Drehlagerzapfen und Drehlageröffnungen für die Lagerschenkel zurückversetzt sind. Hierdurch wird der aufgeklappte Deckel sicher in der horizontalen Stellung festgehalten und kann so bei Montagearbeiten als Ablage für Kleinteile, Hilfsschalter und dergleichen dienen. Diese Anschläge können jedoch bei zu schwerem Drehantrieb oder bei einer stärkeren Belastung des Deckels durch ein Betätigungsgestänge weggelassen werden, damit der Deckel bis in seine vollständige Offenstellung am Schaltergehäuse frei nach unten klappen kann.The bearing legs of the cover can also have end edges that are angled with respect to the front of the cover and come into contact with vertical counter-stop edges on the side walls of the switch housing when the cover is open horizontally, which is set back against the front of the switch housing next to the interlocking pivot pins and pivot bearing openings for the bearing legs are. As a result, the opened lid is securely held in the horizontal position and can be used as a storage for small parts, auxiliary switches and the like during assembly work to serve. However, these stops can be omitted if the rotary drive is too heavy or if the cover is subjected to a greater load, so that the cover can be freely folded down to the fully open position on the switch housing.
