The control button can be moved parallel to the front panel between an automatic running position, in which it does not act on the movable frame, and a forced on position, in which it acts on the movable armature via a separate transmission part.
Le mécanisme de transmission d'un tel appareil remplit plus ou moins bien son rôle en matière de guidage et de reprise d'efforts.The transmission mechanism of such a device fills more or less well its role in terms of guidance and effort recovery.
L'invention a pour but d'améliorer la transmission cinématique entre le bouton de commande manuelle et le circuit magnétique mobile d'un tel appareil interrupteur, pour fiabiliser son fonctionnement et simplifier son montage.The object of the invention is to improve the kinematic transmission between the manual control button and the mobile magnetic circuit of such a device switch, to make its operation more reliable and simplify its assembly.

L'appareil interrupteur électromécanique illustré sur les figures est un contacteur unipolaire ou multipolaire à marche forcée, c'est-à-dire utilisable avec fermeture manuelle maintenue des contacts.The electromechanical switch device illustrated in the figures is a single pole or multi pole contactor with forced operation, i.e. usable with maintained manual closure of contacts.
Le contacteur comprend un boítier 10 de type modulaire dont la face
frontale 11 de plan P1 présente une fenêtre 12 de passage pour un bouton 13 de
commande manuelle ; ce bouton est susceptible d'occuper une position de
commande automatique (figure 4), une position de marche forcée (figure 5) et
éventuellement une position d'arrêt, en passant de l'une à l'autre par translation selon
une direction parallèle au plan P1. En retrait par rapport à la face frontale 11 sont
prévues deux bornes 14 de commande et, pour chaque pôle, deux bornes 15 de
puissance permettant la connexion de conducteurs externes. Les bornes 15 sont
reliées par des pièces conductrices respectives 16 à deux contacts fixes 17, auxquels
sont associés deux contacts mobiles 18 disposés sur un pont de contact 19 ;chaque
pont 19 est mobile selon une direction Z1 perpendiculaire à P1.The contactor comprises a
Les divers ponts de contact 19 sont assujettis chacun à un ressort de
pression de contact 20 et sont logés avec leurs ressorts respectifs dans un support
commun 21 également mobile selon Z1. Le support mobile 21 est actionné pour
fermer les contacts soit par le bouton 13 mis en position de marche forcée soit par un
électroaimant quand le bouton 13 est en position de marche automatique.The various contact bridges 19 are each subject to a spring of
L'électroaimant 30 est disposé dans le boítier 10 et comprend d'une part
une bobine 31 enroulée sur une carcasse isolante 32 et reliée aux bornes de
commande 14, d'autre part un circuit magnétique fixe 33 en forme de E logé dans la
partie antérieure du boítier près de sa face frontale 11 et un circuit magnétique mobile
34 en E disposé entre le circuit 33 et une face arrière 22 du boítier.The
A l'âme 35 du circuit mobile 34 est attachée par tout moyen convenable
une partie antérieure 23 du support mobile 21. L'excitation de la bobine 31 suscite la
montée de l'équipage mobile 34, 21 et donc la fermeture des contacts 17, 18. To the
Pour produire une fermeture forcée des contacts, le bouton 13 coopère
avec un levier pivotant 40 par l'intermédiaire d'une pièce d'entraínement et de
blocage 60.To produce a forced closure of the contacts, the
Le levier 40 est une pièce séparée du bouton 13 qui présente en vue de
côté (figure 1) une forme approximative de L avec un premier bras 41 sensiblement
parallèle à la direction Z1 et agencé pour être mené par le bouton via la pièce 60 et
un deuxième bras 42 sensiblement perpendiculaire à Z1 et lié par un palier 43 au
circuit magnétique mobile et/ou au support mobile. Le levier 40 a de préférence la
forme d'une fourchette (voir figures 2 et 3), de sorte que le deuxième bras 42 se
compose de deux éléments de fourchette 42a, 42b parallèles présentant chacun un
évidement oblong 44a, 44b qui coopère avec faible jeu avec un pivot ou tourillon
respectif 45a, 45b du circuit 34 ou du support 21 ; les évidements 44 et pivots 45
constituent le palier 43 d'axe Y1 perpendiculaire à un plan moyen X1 du circuit
magnétique mobile 34 et ce de manière symétrique au plan X1. Les évidements
oblongs 44 sont de préférence ouverts du côté de l'extrémité libre des éléments de
fourchette, de sorte que ces extrémités ont elles-mêmes une forme de fourche. Les
pivots 45a, 45b peuvent être formés par des tenons du support 21 ou par les
extrémités émergentes d'une goupille qui fixe le support 21 au circuit magnétique 34
et qui est montée traversante dans ce circuit.The
Le levier 40 est une pièce de faible inertie articulée sur un palier 46 fixe
par rapport au boítier et d'axe Y2 parallèle à l'axe Y1 du palier 43. Le palier 46 se
compose de deux pivots 47a, 47b solidaires du levier, symétriques par rapport au
plan X1 et coopérant avec des logements circulaires 48a, 48b prévus dans une paroi
du boítier ou dans la carcasse de bobine. Les paliers 43, 46 sont agencés pour
maintenir le plan moyen X1 du circuit magnétique mobile 34 aligné avec celui du
circuit magnétique fixe 33, donc en bridant le circuit mobile, même en cas de
sollicitation de l'équipage mobile par un additif latéral.The
Un ressort 49 de type quelconque, par exemple hélicoïdal, est prévu entre
une face ou paroi latérale 24 du boítier et une facette d'appui 41a du bras 41 du levier
(voir figures 1 et 3). Le ressort est logé latéralement à une borne 14 de commande et
il convient de noter qu'il constitue l'unique ressort de rappel de l'équipage mobile
circuit 34 - support 21.A
On notera que la fourchette du deuxième bras 42 du levier enveloppe les
joues du circuit magnétique mobile et peut présenter extérieurement une forme
femelle 50 qui est accessible à travers une ouverture 51 d'une paroi latérale 52 du
boítier pour coopérer avec une forme mâle 53 d'un additif latéral de contacts
auxiliaires (voir figure 2). Les efforts dus à la commande des organes mobiles de
l'additif sont repris dans le contacteur par les paliers 43, 46, ce qui soulage le circuit
magnétique mobile. Le premier bras 41 peut également être en forme de pont (figure
3) pour accentuer la rigidité du levier en lui donnant la physionomie d'une bride.It will be noted that the fork of the
La pièce basculante d'entraínement et de blocage 60 est montée
pivotante sur des tourillons 61 d'axe Y3 parallèle aux axes Y1 et Y2, appartenant au
boítier ou à la carcasse de bobine. La pièce basculante 60 comprend un secteur
denté 62 qui engrène avec les dents d'une crémaillère 63 portée par une face latérale
ou inférieure 64 du bouton 13. A son extrémité opposée au bouton, la pièce 60
comprend un doigt 65 coopérant à la manière d'une came avec une surface d'appui
incurvée 66 située près de l'extrémité supérieure 41b du bras 41 du levier ; la surface
d'appui 66 se termine (voir figure 6) par une forme de blocage 67 permettant de
confirmer ou stabiliser l'état de marche forcée. Le bouton 13 est sollicité vers la droite
(figure 1) par un ressort non représenté et comprend une saillie pour commander un
organe 68 de coupure du courant de bobine en position arrêt ; cette disposition est
bien connue et n'est pas davantage décrite.The tilting drive and blocking
L'appareil fonctionne de la manière explicitée ci-après. Lorsque le bouton
de commande manuelle 13 occupe la position de marche automatique et que la
bobine 31 n'est pas alimentée, le levier 40 et le support mobile 21 sont dans la
position indiquée en traits pleins sur la figure 4. Lorsque la bobine est alimentée, le
circuit magnétique mobile 34 est attiré vers le circuit 33 (position indiquée en tirets) en
entraínant d'une part le support 21, d'autre part le levier 40 ; le ressort de rappel 49
est comprimé et les contacts se ferment. Dès que la bobine est désexcitée, le ressort
fait revenir l'équipage mobile à sa position de repos et les contacts s'ouvrent.The device operates as explained below. When the button
Quand le bouton 13 est amené à sa position de marche forcée (figure 5),
les dents 63 de la crémaillère du bouton engrènent avec les dents 62 de la pièce 60
qui bascule ; le doigt 65 glisse sur la surface d'appui 66 en faisant pivoter le levier,
jusqu'à venir se bloquer sur la forme 67 (figure 6). Le levier comprime ici encore le
ressort de rappel 49 et soulève par les évidements 44 les pivots 45, de sorte que le
circuit magnétique mobile 34 se rapproche du circuit magnétique fixe et que les
contacts se ferment. Le bouton 13 est remis en position de marche automatique par
voie manuelle ou électrique ; dans ce dernier cas, le circuit mobile rattrape un jeu e, le
levier pivote légèrement en sens antihoraire (en tirets sur la figure 6) pour libérer la
pièce de blocage 60.When the
