Definitions

  • the invention relates to an arcing chamber for switches, in particular for switch disconnectors in medium-voltage switchgear filled with extinguishing gas.
  • Quenching chambers of this type are known in a wide variety of designs, it being possible in principle to differentiate between open and closed quenching chambers.
  • the closed quenching chambers are hermetically sealed from the atmosphere surrounding them, be it air or another gas, of the switch housing, while the interior of the open quenching chambers is in gas exchange with the atmosphere of the switch housing.
  • the latter type is characterized above all by an inexpensive construction, which is often at the expense of the extinguishing effectiveness.
  • the object of the invention is to create an open quenching chamber which nevertheless has an efficiency which is comparable to that of the closed quenching chambers with a simple and therefore inexpensive construction.
  • the invention takes advantage of the fact that spaced-apart, mutually insulated metal sheets virtually suck an arc that forms during the switch-off process between opening contact pieces on their front edges and divide and deionize and thus extinguish them, and proposes the specified in the main claim Characteristics before.
  • the deion or extinguishing plates surround the movable contact circumferentially at least substantially completely at least in part of its path, the arc which arises when the contact is opened is detected in an extremely effective manner, taking advantage of its lability and evasive property in any direction between the Plates pressed, cut up, also cooled down and finally extinguished without it being able to evade.
  • the arc is controlled specifically during its existence.
  • the quenching plates surround the movable contact essentially over its entire circumference, as a possible embodiment also one in which the quenching plates have radially continuous slots or indentations or bulges and / or the like Have claim 15.
  • the fixed contact is an impact contact and the movable contact is a contact pin.
  • the quenching plates can be essentially vertical in their main plane aligned with the direction of movement of the movable contact as radial plates, which are preferably held parallel to one another by insulating spacers.
  • the extinguishing effect of the Deion sheets can be increased by their gassing, which is achieved in a particularly simple manner within the scope of the invention in that the extinguishing chamber housing is open on one end face and is provided with openings in the side walls.
  • the side openings in the quenching chamber housing enable an optimally working construction in that the radially aligned deion sheets can be arranged at the level of the side quenching chamber housing openings so that they are flushed from the outside by the gas of the switch housing, which in this construction is virtually free of deflection between the sheets of whose outer end faces can come here.
  • the shaft of the movable contact carries a radially oriented suction disc, which moves it participates; the suction disk is preferably arranged at such a distance from the contact pin tip that it is in the switched-on state below the quenching plate package essentially parallel to the quenching plates, while in the switched-off state it is at a distance from the lower quenching chamber housing edge. This ensures that there is not even the slightest risk of plastic bridging between the suction disc and thus the contact pin on the one hand and the arcing chamber housing on the other hand when it is switched off.
  • the suction disc can be used advantageously for guiding the contact pin if it has an outer diameter corresponding to the inner diameter of the arcing chamber housing, so that it can be supported all around on the inner wall of the housing.
  • the pin is supported via the suction disc during most of the switch-off process, and only on the last piece on which the suction disc leaves the arcing chamber housing should further support of the pin be possible , which can happen, for example, in that below the suction disc the shaft is provided with laterally projecting guide pins which slide at least temporarily and partially in a guide arranged below the arcing chamber housing.
  • An overall designated 1 quenching chamber or the like in a known manner within a switch housing. can be accommodated in the illustrated embodiment consists essentially of a housing 2 which has a bell shape, i.e. the side walls are inclined slightly diverging towards the end which is open towards the bottom.
  • the arcing chamber housing 2 is installed in the orientation shown, rather any other angular position, including the one rotated by 180 °, is possible.
  • the lower, open end and upper, closed end of the arcing chamber 1 are discussed below using the example shown.
  • a knock-in contact 3 (fixed contact) known as such is fastened, which interacts with a mating contact 4 projecting from below through the open quenching chamber housing 2, which is in the solid position in the switched-off position, while the dashed line Representation shows its switch-on position.
  • a package of metal plates 5 (deion plates), which are arranged at a distance from one another and are arranged parallel to one another and are aligned radially with respect to the movable contact 4, is fastened in the housing 2 and is kept at a mutual distance via insulating spacers 6 become.
  • the Deion- or extinguishing plates 5 each have a concentric recess, so that a total of a passage for the movable counter contact 4 remains open and the plates 5 surround the contact 4 as closely as possible in the switched-on state.
  • the height of the package is somewhat less than the stroke a of the movable mating contact 4 of the switch disconnector, for reasons that follow from the explanations below.
  • the movable contact 4 namely carries a collar-shaped, radially oriented suction disk 7, which is positively attached to the shaft of the contact 4 at a certain distance below the contact tip 8. Since the movable mating contact 4 is shown in solid lines in its switch-off position in the attached figures, the stroke a results as the distance between the dashed (contact) and the solid (switch-off) position.
  • the illustrations also make it clear that the distance between the suction disc 7 and the contact tip 8 is selected such that the suction disc is positioned in the switched-on position at a short distance below the quenching plate package, i.e. the part of the contact 4 located above the suction disc 7 extends completely through the extinguishing plates 5.
  • the illustrations also show that the mutual dimensions and the stroke are preferably selected so that the contact tip 8 remains slightly below the quenching plate stack in the switched-off position.
  • the suction disk 7 is then at a distance b from the inner wall 9 of the arcing chamber housing 2 for the purpose of interrupting the bridge, which is designed to open conically at its lower end.
  • This shape of the lower edge of the housing has both fluidic advantages for the gas flowing through the quenching chamber 1 and insertion properties for the suction disc 7 into the interior of the housing (funnel effect), because the suction disc is adapted with its outer diameter to the inner diameter of the housing 2, so that it over most of the way of the movable contact 4 abuts the inner wall of the housing 2 and thus leads the pin safely.
  • this suction disk 7 The main purpose of this suction disk 7 is, however, to support the extinguishing function of the deion sheets, at the height of which openings 11 are provided in the housing 2, through which gas is produced when the contact 4 moves downward, that is to say in the event of switching off due to the circumferential contact of the suction disk 7 on the housing inner wall from the environment - in the illustrated embodiment, the SF6 gas, with which the switch housing in which the quenching chamber is housed - is sucked from the outside between the quenching plates 5, swirls there and supports the quenching function of the quenching plates 5 quite considerably. With this construction, the otherwise uncontrollable arc is encompassed in a controlled manner, divided, pressed or sucked into the spaces between the quenching plates and then quenched.
  • Fig. 2 shows the lower guide area for the movable counter contact 4, and preferably in the form of one or more guide plates 12, which is or are each provided with an elongated hole 13, which follow above, ie slightly open towards the quenching chamber 1 and in which at least one laterally protruding pin 14a is guided, above which, in the exemplary embodiment shown, a further guide pin 14b is positively connected to the contact pin 4.
  • the distance of the pin 14b from the suction disk is selected so that the pin 14b, when guided, engages in the elongated hole 13 at which the suction disk 7 leaves the part of the inner wall of the housing 2 which guides it. This ensures safe contact pin guidance.
  • the invention creates a quenching chamber of the open type which requires little effort and is nevertheless effective, and which is also extremely easy to maintain.
