Definitions

  • the object of the invention is to provide an electrical circuit breaker for high performance, insensitive to any phenomenon of external manifestations.
  • the circuit breaker according to the invention is characterized in that the striker is formed by an elongated piece situated between the magnetic circuit and the first compartment, and cooperating with the means for supporting the contact arm to close the passage between the first and second compartments after attraction of the pallet, and to free said passage after the return of the pallet to the separated position.
  • the axis of connection of the striker on the pallet is disposed in an intermediate zone between the axis of articulation of the pallet, and the second air gap.
  • the striker constitutes a screen which adapts to the internal part of the housing. The passage between these two compartments is advantageously located above the first air gap opposite the fixed contact.
  • the means for supporting the contact arm comprise drive stops cooperating with the mechanism, and a bearing face cooperating with the free end of the striker to delimit said passage
  • Figure 1 is a schematic elevational view of the circuit breaker equipped with the actuator according to the invention.
  • FIG. 2 represents a perspective view of the actuator of FIG. 1.
  • Figure 3 is a sectional view through the median plane of the actuator of Figure 2, the paddle and the striker being in the inactive position.
  • Figure 4 shows a plan view of Figure 3.
  • Figure 5 is an identical view to Figure 3, in the active position of the pallet and the striker.
  • Figure 6 is a plan view of Figure 5.
  • a circuit breaker 1 comprises a housing 2 containing a fixed contact 3, a movable contact 4 mounted at the end of a movable contact arm 5, a breaking chamber 6 and various elements of electrical connections (not shown) used to connect the fixed and movable contact to terminals (not shown).
  • the circuit breaker further includes an electromagnetic actuator AE causing the circuit breaker to trip in the event of a fault, and rapid separation of the fixed and mobile contacts 3, 4.
  • the electromagnetic actuator AE comprises a yoke 7 made of magnetic material, a swivel pallet 8, and a striker 9.
  • the cylinder head or magnetic circuit 7 in the form of an H comprises a cylindrical core 10 surrounded by a coil 34, and two flanks 11, 12 arranged parallel to each other, and extending perpendicular to the axis of the core 10
  • the side 11 has a first end 13 directed towards the pallet 8 and a second opposite end 14.
  • the other sidewall 12 comprises a third end (not shown) directed towards the pallet 8 and an opposite fourth end 16.
  • the first end 13 and the third end form polar planar faces cooperating with the flat face 18 of the pallet 8.
  • the second and fourth ends 14, 16 form flat faces arranged opposite one another to delimit a first air gap 17.
  • the pallet 8 When the electromagnetic actuator AE is at rest, the pallet 8 is located at a certain distance from the face 18 of the cylinder head 7 by forming a second air gap 19.
  • the pivoting pallet 8 is mounted on a hinge pin 21 and the movable contact arm 5 is also pivotally mounted by means of another articulation axis 22.
  • the fixed contact 3 is located at the base of the air gap 17, and at least part of the movable contact arm 5 extends through the air gap 17.
  • the striker 9 is in the form of an elongated substantially rectangular part, one end of which is articulated on a connecting pin 23 arranged on the pallet 8, and the other free end 24 of which is situated near the movable contact arm 5, and on the side opposite the fixed contact 3.
  • the width of the striker roughly corresponds to the width of the housing.
  • the contact arm 5 is carried by support means 26 arranged opposite the movable contact 4, and having drive stops cooperating with the mechanism (not shown) to ensure closure and the separation of the contacts 3, 4.
  • the support means 26 additionally comprise a bearing face 36 cooperating with the free end 24 of the striker 9.
  • the connecting axis 23 of the striker 9 on the pallet 8 is located in an intermediate zone between the articulation axis 21 and the second air gap 19.
  • the free end 24 of the striker 9 is separated from the bearing face 36 by a passage 28 in the form of a slot whose thickness is variable as a function of the state of magnetization of the electromagnetic actuator AE.
  • the striker 9 in addition to its acceleration function of the contact arm 5 , thus plays a role of separation screen between the two compartments, and the slot 28 remains closed in the attracted position of the pallet 8, that is to say as long as the current in the coil exceeds a predetermined value. Closing the slot 28 during the arc extinction phase prevents any gas backflow towards the upper compartment 30, and in particular towards the orifice for passage of the lever, so as to avoid any phenomenon of external manifestations at the front of the housing 2.
