Definitions

  • the invention relates to a low-voltage circuit breaker with a relative auxiliary switch.
  • a relative auxiliary switch is to be understood as a signaling switch that only then is actuated when the generally multi-pole low-voltage circuit breaker is triggered.
  • the relative auxiliary switch is via a resilient intermediate member by a driver pin of the latchable support lever of the switch lock of the Low-voltage circuit breaker actuated.
  • the relative auxiliary switch via a spring-loaded lever shaft through the support lever of the key switch operated.
  • a low-voltage circuit breaker in which the prestressed actuating plunger of a relative auxiliary switch also via a resilient intermediate member is operated by the support lever.
  • the prestressed actuating plunger of a normal auxiliary switch i.e. one of the auxiliary switches signaling the position of the main contacts, via a further resilient intermediate member by a radial extension of the movable Main contacts carrying shift shaft is operated.
  • the latter solution can be however, do not apply to a relative auxiliary switch.
  • the disadvantage of the state of the Technology is that relative auxiliary switches in a complex and complicated manner controlled by the key switch. This makes multi-pole low-voltage circuit breakers additional and harmful exhaust openings between the in generally center pole connected to the key switch and a generally the receptacle for the relative auxiliary switch to be assigned to the outer pole avoid.
  • the invention is therefore based on the object, a simple and switch lock Indicate independent control of the relative auxiliary switch.
  • a low-voltage circuit breaker Relative auxiliary switch with a molded housing, in or on which the relative auxiliary switch is installed or attached, with interacting fixed and movable contacts per pole as well as with a switching shaft supporting the movable contacts solved by switching the low voltage circuit breaker, the on the one hand contains a rocker arm or similar actuation means and on the other hand opening and closing is operatively connected to the movable contacts and through Triggering means can be triggered, wherein the opening angle of the movable Contacts or the control shaft in the tripped state larger than in the switched-off state is, furthermore, a pivot lever mounted in the molded housing, which is in operative connection with a pretensioned actuating plunger of the relative auxiliary switch, and finally a radial extension arranged in this way on the selector shaft has that the pivot lever only in the triggered state acted upon.
  • the switch lock contains a toggle lever has a cam element on one end and the other lever end against the force of a spring mechanism, which is between one with the Rocker arm connected shift gate and the cam element attacks between the switched off and the switched on state pivotable and between the triggered and the switched off state portable against a lockable and unlockable Support lever supports, wherein the cam member in engagement with at least one Cam slot of the control shaft is located, which is designed so that the triggered state causes a larger opening angle than the switched-off state. Furthermore it is advantageous if the curvature of the cam slot bent to the movable contact greater than the curvature of the path of movement of the cam element between the triggered and the switched off state.
  • the toggle lever system of the proposed switch lock is composed of a toggle lever Cam slot and a toggle lever guided in it, which in the triggered state, a larger opening angle of the control shaft and thus the movable contacts can be achieved than in the normal switched off state. This is particularly due to a larger curvature of the cam slot compared to the Curvature of the path of movement of the cam element about the tilt axis of the support lever reached.
  • the toggle lever consists of a symmetrical pair of toggle levers, that at one end via the cam element designed as a connecting axis is connected in parallel spaced.
  • the area of application of the pivot lever for the extension opposite the operative connection area with the actuating plunger closer to the swivel axis.
  • the contact system 4 consists of a fixed Contact 8 and a movable contact 10, the movable contact 12 in and except in connection with a fixed contact 14 of the fixed contact 8 can be brought.
  • the movable contact 10 is pivotable about an axis 15 in one Transversely located shift shaft 18 and with their formed cam slot 16 with the switch lock 6 connected.
  • the switching lock 6 consists of a switching link 20, a support lever 22, a toggle lever 24, a spring force accumulator 26 and a Latching mechanism 28.
  • the shifting gate 20 on the one hand has one to be actuated Rocker arm 30 and is supported on the other hand with its leg end 32 pivotable in Lower part 2.
  • the support lever 22 is supported on the one hand with a wrap 34 on one stationary tilt axis 36 and is on the other hand via its latching surface 38 with the Latching mechanism 28 can be latched.
  • the toggle lever 24 is on the one hand Cam member 40 slidably guided in the cam slot 16 and is supported on the other hand, with its lever end 42 against the force of the spring force accumulator 26, the between the rocker arm end of the shift gate 20 and the cam member 40 engages, pivotable against an abutment 44 of the support lever 22.
  • the support lever 22 When pivoting the rocker arm 30 clockwise from the triggered in the switched off state, the support lever 22 is a driver element 46 of the Gear shift 20 also taken clockwise and on its latching surface 38 by a pawl 48 of the latching mechanism acted upon by a pawl spring 50 28 latched in a conventional manner.
  • the upper point of engagement of the spring force accumulator 26 When swiveling the Rocker arm 30 counterclockwise from the off state in the direction of switched on state, the upper point of engagement of the spring force accumulator 26 also pivoted counterclockwise, so that after exceeding the hyperextended position of the spring force accumulator 26 of the toggle lever in a clockwise direction Abutment 44 tilts, whereby the cam member 40 and the cam slot 16 that Contact system 4 is closed.
  • the contact system 4 takes when triggered, a larger opening angle between the movable Contact 10 and the fixed contact 8 as in the off state. This is caused in that the cam member 40 is rotatably slidable with the cam slot 16 is connected and the curvature of the movement path of the cam element 40, that occurs during the transition to the triggered state is smaller than the curvature of the cam slot 16 bent about axis 15.
  • a relative auxiliary switch 56 which is suitably in one for this provided recess 57 is fixed in the upper part 58 of the molded housing.
  • the extension 60 consists of a Area 62 in the form of a segment of a circle and goes on one side into one of the control shaft 18 forward-facing actuation lever 64 via.
  • a switch shaft 18 pointing actuating plunger 66 of the relative auxiliary switch 56 and the extension 60 is a one-armed pivot lever 68 arranged, the pivot axis 70 in one with the Upper part 58 connected lever bearing 72 is mounted.
  • the actuating plunger 66 is in the usual manner in one out of the auxiliary switch 56 externally facing direction spring-loaded so that when the Low-voltage circuit breaker in the manner shown in Fig. 4, the pivot lever 68 with its free end 74 on the circular segment-shaped region 62 of the Extension 60 is present.
  • the free end 74 of the pivot lever 68 slides on the periphery along the circular segment-shaped region 62 of the extension 60, so that no pivoting movement of the pivot lever 68 can take place.
