Abstract
Description
L'invention a pour objet, comme indique son énoncé, un régulateur du passage du courant pour des dispositifs électrotechniques ayant pour office de limiter le passage de courant électrique dans les dispositifs électrotechniques de sorte que, s'il se produit une augmentation de l'intensité du courant qui dépasserait la limite ou le point critique préalablement établi, le déclenchement et par conséquent l'actionnement du mécanisme électrotechnique a lieu, dans le sens d'ouverture du circuit électrique établi, en évitant ainsi la détérioration de l'appareil ou de l'installation électrique protégée par le dispositif électrotechnique.The subject of the invention is, as its statement indicates, a regulator of the flow of current for electrotechnical devices having the function of limiting the passage of electric current in electrotechnical devices so that, if an increase in the intensity of the current which would exceed the limit or the critical point previously established, the triggering and consequently the actuation of the electrotechnical mechanism takes place, in the direction of opening of the established electrical circuit, thus avoiding the deterioration of the device or the electrical installation protected by the electrotechnical device.
Conformément à l'invention, le régulateur pour le courant électrique est formé par une tige de réglage qui, à une de ses extrémités, a une tête en forme de roue dentée et, à l'autre extrémité, commence une découpure ou rainure diamétrale qui s'étend, longitudinalement, jusqu'à la proximité de l'extrémité opposée en forme de roue dentée; un ressort qui, par une extrémité, est introduit et reste fixé dans la rainure ou coupure longitudinale de la tige de réglage, et son autre extrémité se prolonge en une branche droite et perpendiculaire à ladite tige; une boîte, prévue dans la carcasse ou corps du dispositif électrotechnique, dans laquelle est logée la tige de réglage et le ressort qu'elle comporte, dans cette boîte est immobilisé ou bloqué l'ensemble tige-ressort, une fois établi le point critique ou limite de courant électrique; un prolongement, avec bride d'extrémité, de la partie mobile ou déplaçable du noyau de l'électro-aimant qui dépasse à l'extérieur de celui-ci; et l'autre partie fixe du noyau de l'électro-aimant, avec perforation axiale dans laquelle est agencée une tige avec épaississement à une extrémité qui reste à l'extérieur de l'électro-aimant.According to the invention, the regulator for the electric current is formed by an adjustment rod which, at one of its ends, has a head in the form of a toothed wheel and, at the other end, begins a cut or diametrical groove which extends longitudinally to the proximity of the opposite end in the form of a toothed wheel; a spring which, by one end, is introduced and remains fixed in the longitudinal groove or cut of the adjustment rod, and its other end is extended in a straight branch and perpendicular to said rod; a box, provided in the carcass or body of the electrotechnical device, in which is housed the adjustment rod and the spring which it comprises, in this box is immobilized or blocked the rod-spring assembly, once the critical point has been established, or electric current limit; an extension, with end flange, of the movable or displaceable part of the electromagnet core which protrudes outside of it; and the other fixed part of the electromagnet core, with axial perforation in which is arranged a rod with thickening at one end which remains outside the electromagnet.

La figure 1 montre, en perspective, les pièces qui forment le régulateur de passage de courant pour dispositifs électrotechniques préconisés.Figure 1 shows, in perspective, the parts that form the current flow regulator for recommended electrotechnical devices.
La figure 2 montre, en plan et en coupe partielle, l'ensemble du régulateur.Figure 2 shows, in plan and partial section, the entire regulator.
Comme on peut apprécier dans les figures énumérées, le régulateur de passage de courant pour dispositifs électrotechniques comprend une tige -1- qui, à une extrémité, s'élargit en forme de roue dentée -2-, et à son extrémité opposée a une découpure ou rainure diamétrale -3-, se prolongeant longitudinalement jusqu'à la proximité de la tête -2-. Cette tige -1- est reliée à un ressort -4-, qui, par une extrémité -5- reste retenue dans la rainure -3-, tandis que les spires du ressort -4- s'enroulent sur la tige -1- ou, dans d'autres mots, la tige -1- est enfilée dans le ressort -4- après qu'une de ses extrémités -5- soit agencée dans la rainure -3-, l'autre extrémité du ressort -4- se prolongeant en une branche -6- droite et perpendiculaire à la tige -1-. L'ensemble tige -1- et ressort -4- est logé dans une boîte -7- prévue entre les deux parties formant la carcasse ou corps qui comporte le mécanisme du dispositif électrotechnique, ladite boîte conformant un creux à paroi dentée -16- dans laquelle est logée la tête en forme de roue dentée -2-, de sorte que, lorsque cette tête -2- est commandée pour régler le point critique de déclenchement, une fois établi, elle est introduite dans ce creux -16-, avec quoi sa manipulation ultérieure est évitée.As can be seen in the figures listed, the current flow regulator for electrotechnical devices comprises a rod -1- which, at one end, widens in the form of a toothed wheel -2-, and at its end opposite a cutout or diametrical groove -3-, extending longitudinally to the proximity of the head -2-. This rod -1- is connected to a spring -4-, which, by one end -5- remains retained in the groove -3-, while the turns of the spring -4- are wound on the rod -1- or , in other words, the rod -1- is threaded into the spring -4- after one of its ends -5- is arranged in the groove -3-, the other end of the spring -4- extending in a branch -6- straight and perpendicular to the stem -1-. The rod -1- and spring -4- assembly is housed in a box -7- provided between the two parts forming the carcass or body which comprises the mechanism of the electrotechnical device, said box forming a hollow with toothed wall -16- in which is housed the toothed wheel head -2-, so that when this head -2- is controlled to set the critical trigger point, once established, it is introduced into this recess -16-, with what its subsequent manipulation is avoided.
Le noyau de l'électro-aimant est divisé en deux parties cylindriques -8- et ---9- dont la première est mobile dans le sens de déplacement longitudinal, et d'une de ses bases se prolonge axialement un goujon -10- qui finit en une bride d'extrémité -11- sur laquelle s'appuie la branche d'extrémité droite -6- du ressort ---4- enfilé par la tige -1- de régulation, de sorte que ladite branche d'extrémité -6- empêche le déplacement de la partie du noyau mobile, tant qu'elle ne dépassera pas la limite ou le point critique établi par le régulateur. La partie fixe -9- du noyau de l'électro-aimant a, à une de ses bases, un prolongement -12- également cylindrique, avec perforation axiale -13- de part en part à travers laquelle est agencée une tige --14- à tête -15-, qui agit de percuteur du mécanisme d'actionnement, pour l'ouverture du circuit électrique du dispositif électrotechnique réglé.The core of the electromagnet is divided into two cylindrical parts -8- and --- 9- the first of which is movable in the direction of longitudinal displacement, and one of its bases is axially extended by a stud -10- which ends in an end flange -11- on which rests the right end branch -6- of the spring --- 4- threaded by the regulating rod -1-, so that said end branch -6- prevents displacement of the part of the mobile core, as long as it does not exceed the limit or the critical point established by the regulator. The fixed part -9- of the core of the electromagnet has, at one of its bases, an extension -12- also cylindrical, with axial perforation -13- right through which a rod is arranged --14 - with head -15-, which acts as striker of the actuating mechanism, for opening the electrical circuit of the electrotechnical device set.
Le montage des pièces formant ce régulateur de passage de courant étant décrit, son fonctionnement est le suivant: On agit sur la tige -1- dans le sens de vissage sur sa tête dentée -2-, jusqu'à tendre le ressort -4- dont l'extrémité droite ---6- retient la bride -11- jusqu'à la limite ou le point critique du passage de courant électrique par l'électro-aimant -17-, où la partie mobile du noyau -8- ne peut pas se déplacer, à l'intérieur de l'électro-aimant, car la branche droite d'extrémité -6- du ressort -4- qui s'appuie sur la bride d'extrémité -11- l'en empêche; à ce point critique du passage de courant la tête dentée -2- de la tige de réglage est pressée et elle est introduite dans le creux également denté -16- des deux pièces formant la carcasse du dispositif électrotechnique, afin d'empêcher sa manipulation ultérieure. Le régulateur étant dans cette position, si pour une circonstance quelconque il se produit une surintensité du courant qui dépasserait la limite ou le point critique établi, cela produira un déplacement brusque et rapide de la partie mobile -8- du noyau de l'électro-aimant --17-, jusqu'à heurter la partie fixe -9- dudit noyau, en faisant que la tige -14- du percuteur se déplace à son intérieur de sorte que la tête -15- de ladite tige -14-, actionne la pièce du mécanisme du dispositif électrotechnique qui détermine l'ouverture du circuit contrôlé par celui-ci.The assembly of the parts forming this current flow regulator having been described, its operation is as follows: One acts on the rod -1- in the screwing direction on its toothed head -2-, until the spring -4- is tensioned whose straight end --- 6- retains the flange -11- up to the limit or the critical point of the passage of electric current through the electromagnet -17-, where the mobile part of the core -8- does cannot move inside the electromagnet, because the straight end branch -6- of the spring -4- which is supported on the end flange -11- prevents it; at this critical point of the current flow the toothed head -2- of the adjustment rod is pressed and it is introduced into the hollow also toothed -16- of the two parts forming the carcass of the electrotechnical device, in order to prevent its subsequent manipulation . The regulator being in this position, if for any circumstance there occurs an overcurrent which would exceed the limit or the critical point established, this will produce a sudden and rapid displacement of the mobile part -8- of the core of the electro- magnet --17-, until it strikes the fixed part -9- of said core, causing the rod -14- of the striker to move inside it so that the head -15- of said rod -14- actuates the part of the mechanism of the electrotechnical device which determines the opening of the circuit controlled by it.
De la description qui précède et de la feuille de dessins annexée, on comprend bien la constitution et le fonctionnement du régulateur de passage de courant pour des dispositifs électrotechniques ainsi que les avantages qu'il offre par rapport à ceux déjà connus.From the foregoing description and from the attached drawing sheet, it is easy to understand the constitution and the operation of the current flow regulator for electrotechnical devices as well as the advantages which it offers compared to those already known.
