Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a bipolar switch formed by two poles and a sealed housing.
  • the document FR-A-2.609.209 describes a bipolar differential switch with fault indicator which comprises a control mechanism with lever and differential trigger comprising a totalizing transformer and a trigger relay cooperating by means of a trigger bar with the main lock of the mechanism, and with a signaling lock of a fault indicator lever.
  • the automatic reset of the relay is effected by a reset lever mounted with limited pivoting on the axis of the indicator lever. A protrusion of the movable contact drive plate causes the reset lever to move to the neutralization position during the closing stroke of the lever and the indicator lever to move to an inactive position.
  • Document FR-A-2,596,302 describes an installation switch or switch operating with a contact assembly placed in a narrow rectangular base of the housing.
  • Two contact parts of the same shape, comprising transverse arms are arranged in the base with 180 ° offset and vertical spacing of the arms; on the opposite side, there is a fixed contact provided with a flange for mounting the contact rocker; this assembly constitutes the basic component of a two-way switch, also usable as a single-pole switch; with this component, the other conventional installation switches can be made, for example a bipolar switch, a double back-and-forth switch, a serial or reversing switch.
  • the base is provided with openings distributed in two planes for the passage of the supply conductors and the contact bridges .
  • the document FR-A-2.530.073 describes a bipolar differential switch with an insulating housing containing a differential transformer, a contact system for interrupting the phase and neutral circuits, an operating mechanism and a trip relay cooperating with the latch of the mechanism.
  • One of the plates of the mechanism is longer than the other, and extends to the vicinity of the base, constituting the main support of the self-supporting structure of the electromechanical block.
  • the contact system and the differential transformer are arranged on either side of the plate and are located side by side and at different levels respectively with the mechanism and the relay.
  • the document FR-A-2,499,761 describes a bipolar switch with protective cartridge fuse.
  • This bipolar switch comprises a single body of modular dimensions which delimits two housings receiving the bipolar switch and a housing which can receive indifferently cartridge fuse holders of different lengths.
  • An electrical connection is established inside the body between the contacts of the pole of the phase line of the bipolar switch and the contacts which receive the cartridge fuse holder.
  • the body is of suitable dimensions to be able to be housed in a built-in support for modular installation.
  • the main object of the invention is to provide a bipolar switch with insulating housing of the type comprising two poles each formed by a movable contact and a fixed contact, each pole being connected to several terminals connected in series by means of of a conductor, each of the terminals of one of the poles forming, with one of the terminals of the other pole, a socket current, characterized in that each conductor constitutes one of the fixed contacts of the bipolar switch so that during the manufacture of said bipolar switch, the connection between said switch and the electrical outlets is made by simply placing the switch in the housing.
  • the bipolar switch has a special structure which is another object of the present invention, thus the bipolar switch comprises one or two shaped housings capable of receiving the two conductors, so that each conductor forming a fixed contact is adjacent to a movable contact.
  • the electric current arrives at the bipolar switch 1, by the two electric wires which are located at the top left of the diagram.
  • This power is supplied by a conventional electrical outlet.
  • Each of the two electric wires ends in a pole 3, which is formed by a movable contact 4 which can switch to a fixed contact 5, in order to close the electric circuit, or else move away from the fixed contact 5, in order to open the circuit. electric.
  • Each fixed contact 5 is extended by a rigid conductor 8, then by a flexible conductor 9.
  • the two conductors 8 and 9 supply terminals 6 in series.
  • Each terminal 6 is adjacent to another terminal 6 connected to the other fixed contact 5 via the rigid conductor 8 or the rigid 8 and flexible conductors 9, so that all of the adjacent terminals 6 form an electrical outlet 7.
  • FIG. 2 shows in detail the network of conductors 8 and 9.
  • Each conductor forming the fixed contact consists of a rigid metal tab.
  • each flexible conductor 9 is used only for the execution of an electrical bridge between two rigid conductors 8.
  • an electric wire placed between the end part of two flexible 9 or rigid 8 conductors serves as an earth connection.
  • FIG. 3 shows the bipolar switch 1 when the movable 4 and fixed 5 contacts are distant, the electric circuit is therefore open, the electric current does not pass.
  • the fixed contact 5 is centered relative to the switch 1 by virtue of a counter-pin 13, said fixed contact 5 extends and forms, outside the switch 1, the rigid conductor 8.
  • Each fixed contact 5 or mobile contact 4 has a contact pad 11.
  • Figure 4 shows the bipolar switch 1 when the movable 4 and fixed 5 contacts touch, thus closing the electrical circuit, which allows the passage of electric current.
  • the housing 10 has a size large enough to allow at least one pole to function.
  • the fixed contact 5 remains, of course, centered relative to the switch 1 by means of the centering lug 13.
  • FIG. 5 shows a detail of the rigid conductor 8 and more precisely of its end serving as a fixed contact 5.
  • each fixed contact 5 has a centering hole 12 which cooperates with the centering lug 13, not shown in this figure, placed in the housing 10, in order to position the fixed contact 5 relative to the movable contact 4.
