Description

La présente invention se rapporte à un dispositif d'actionnement d'un appareil électrique, en particulier d'un sectionneur ou d'un sectionneur de mise à la terre haute tension.The present invention relates to a device for actuating an electrical appliance, in particular a high voltage earthing switch or earthing switch.

Elle concerne plus précisément un dispositif d'actionnement d'un appareil électrique, en particulier d'un sectionneur ou d'un sectionneur de mise à la terre haute tension, comportant dans un boîtier de commande un dispositif d'entraînement par rotation des contacts de l'appareil haute tension et un circuit de pilotage comportant des contacts dit de fin de course associés aux contacts de l'appareil.More precisely, it relates to a device for actuating an electrical appliance, in particular a high voltage earthing switch or disconnector, comprising in a control box a device for driving by rotation of the contacts of the high-voltage device and a control circuit comprising contacts known as limit switches associated with the contacts of the device.

Les sectionneurs haute tension, ainsi que les sectionneurs de terre sont de façon générale actionnés électriquement grâce à un moteur électrique mis en fonction à partir d'une armoire de commande locale et associé à un circuit de pilotage comportant des contacts commandés par un circuit de signalisation de position associé aux contacts de l'appareil.The high voltage disconnectors, as well as the earthing switches are generally electrically actuated thanks to an electric motor operated from a local control cabinet and associated with a control circuit comprising contacts controlled by a signaling circuit. position associated with the device contacts.

L'ordre d'ouverture ou de fermeture est transmis de cette armoire et l'arrêt du moteur est assuré par les contacts du circuit de pilotage.The opening or closing order is transmitted from this cabinet and the engine is stopped by the control circuit contacts.

De façon classique, ce moteur électrique d'actionnement est fixe à l'intérieur d'un boîtier de commande comprenant une connexion possible pour une manivelle de secours en cas de panne du moteur, de son alimentation ou de défaut de la tension de pilotage des contacteurs de commande. Cette connexion mécanique assure, lorsque la manivelle est connectée, la déconnexion électrique du moteur.Conventionally, this electric actuating motor is fixed inside a control box comprising a possible connection for a backup crank in the event of a motor failure, of its power supply or of failure of the piloting voltage of the control contactors. This mechanical connection ensures, when the crank is connected, the electrical disconnection of the motor.

Cette manoeuvre manuelle par manivelle pose des problèmes de deux type.This manual operation by crank poses problems of two types.

Premièrement, la vitesse de rotation de la manivelle ne peut être imposée et peut donc être excessivement lente ou rapide. Aucune garantie de performance électrique du sectionneur ne peut donc être donnée, en particulier lors d'une opération de transfert en charge avec des postes à deux jeux de barres par exemple. Par ailleurs, les contacts de signalisation de position qui doivent être à action positive pour des raisons de fiabilité peuvent s'ouvrir avec une vitesse de séparation des contacts trop lente dans le cas de coupure de courants importants de nature selfique. Enfin, lors de l'ouverture des contacts du sectionneur, si la vitesse de séparation des contacts est trop lente, un arc sollicite ces contacts pendant un temps trop long et les endommage.Firstly, the speed of rotation of the crank cannot be imposed and can therefore be excessively slow or rapid. No guarantee of the electrical performance of the disconnector can therefore be given, in particular during a load transfer operation with stations with two busbars for example. Furthermore, the position signaling contacts, which must be positive-acting for reasons of reliability, can open with a contact separation speed that is too slow in the event of a break in large currents of an inductive nature. Finally, when opening the contacts of the disconnector, if the speed of separation of the contacts is too slow, an arc solicits these contacts for a too long time and damages them.

Deuxièmement, la manoeuvre complète de fermeture ou d'ouverture n'est pas garantie et l'arrêt de la manoeuvre peut se faire par choc des butées mécaniques éventuellement en pleine vitesse, ce qui est préjudiciable au bon état des contacts. Ceci est particulièrement problématique dans le cas d'appareils blindés, c'est-à-dire sous enveloppe métallique, où les contacts sont cachés et la manoeuvre doit se faire à l'aveugle.Secondly, the complete closing or opening maneuver is not guaranteed and the maneuvering can be stopped by impact of the mechanical stops possibly at full speed, which is detrimental to the good state of the contacts. This is particularly problematic in the case of shielded devices, that is to say in a metal envelope, where the contacts are hidden and the operation must be carried out blind.

Pour résoudre ces problèmes, l'invention propose de remplacer la manivelle par un moteur électrique portatif à alimentation autonome équipé d'un agencement de liaison mécanique avec le dispositif d'entraînement par rotation et pourvu d'un dispositif de connexion électrique au circuit de pilotage.To solve these problems, the invention proposes to replace the crank by a portable electric motor with autonomous power supply equipped with a mechanical connection arrangement with the rotary drive device and provided with a device for electrical connection to the control circuit. .

La vitesse de ce moteur portatif étant connue et constante, le premier type de problèmes est résolu. Grâce à sa liaison avec le circuit de pilotage, le moteur portatif peut être arrêté automatiquement à la fin des opérations d'ouverture et de fermeture, ce qui résout le second type de problème.The speed of this portable motor being known and constant, the first type of problem is solved. Thanks to its connection to the control circuit, the portable motor can be stopped automatically at the end of the opening and closing operations, which solves the second type of problem.

Pour des raisons de disponibilité ou d'encombrement, il peut être envisagé d'utiliser ce moteur portatif comme dispositif d'actionnement en fonctionnement normal.For reasons of availability or space, it can be envisaged to use this portable motor as an actuation device in normal operation.

De préférence, ledit moteur est logé dans un carter de type carter de perceuse et ledit agencement de liaison mécanique est une tige de type tige de manivelle destinée à coopérer avec l'agencement d'entraînement mécanique du boîtier.Preferably, said motor is housed in a casing of the drill casing type and said mechanical connection arrangement is a rod of crank rod type intended to cooperate with the mechanical drive arrangement of the housing.

Avantageusement, ledit dispositif de connexion électrique est un connecteur destiné à être enfiché dans le boîtier et assurant la connexion d'un circuit de commande logé dans le carter avec ledit circuit de pilotage.Advantageously, said electrical connection device is a connector intended to be plugged into the housing and ensuring the connection of a control circuit housed in the casing with said control circuit.

Ledit circuit de commande est actionné, de préférence, par l'intermédiaire de deux boutons poussoirs et assure la rotation dans un sens ou dans l'autre sens du moteur .Said control circuit is preferably actuated by means of two push buttons and ensures rotation in one direction or the other direction of the motor.

Le dispositif peut comporter également une liaison à un relais de verrouillage destiné à être connecté audit connecteur et un pontage de détermination du sens de la manoeuvre destiné à être connecté audit connecteur.The device may also include a connection to a locking relay intended to be connected to said connector and a jumper for determining the direction of operation intended to be connected to said connector.

Selon le mode de réalisation préféré, il constitue un dispositif de secours d'actionnement de l'appareil électrique en cas de malfonctionnement d'un dispositif d'actionnement normal comportant un moteur électrique fixe associé audit boîtier.According to the preferred embodiment, it constitutes an emergency device for actuating the electrical device in the event of malfunction of a normal actuating device comprising a fixed electric motor associated with said housing.

Dans ce cas, avantageusement, ledit boîtier comporte un connecteur de fonctionnement normal amovible assurant la continuité du circuit de pilotage.In this case, advantageously, said housing includes a removable normal operating connector ensuring the continuity of the control circuit.

L'invention est décrite ci-après plus en détail à l'aide de figures ne représentant qu'un mode de réalisation préféré de l'invention.The invention is described below in more detail using figures showing only a preferred embodiment of the invention.

Les figures 3A et 3B sont des vues schématiques en perspective et en coupe du même boîtier de commande, auquel est connecté le dispositif d'actionnement de secours conforme à l'invention.Figures 3A and 3B are schematic perspective views in section of the same control unit, to which is connected the emergency actuation device according to the invention.

La figure 4 est une vue schématique en coupe du dispositif d'actionnement de secours connecté au boîtier de commande.Figure 4 is a schematic sectional view of the emergency actuation device connected to the control unit.

Les figures 5 et 6 sont des schémas électriques d'un mode de réalisation préféré.Figures 5 and 6 are electrical diagrams of a preferred embodiment.

Le boîtier de commande 2 représenté sur les figures 1A et 1B est en soi connu sauf l'agencement de connecteur amovible comme il sera vu plus loin.The control unit 2 shown in Figures 1A and 1B is known per se except for the removable connector arrangement as will be seen below.

Ce boîtier 2 contient le moteur d'actionnement 40 fixe de fonctionnement normal de l'appareil électrique, pourvu d'un dispositif d'entraînement par rotation 15 destiné de façon connue à la liaison d'une manivelle de secours. Un interrupteur 41 de déconnexion du moteur 40 lors de la mise en oeuvre d'une manivelle est prévu.This box 2 contains the actuator motor 40 fixed for normal operation of the electrical appliance, provided with a rotary drive device 15 intended in known manner for the connection of an emergency crank. A switch 41 for disconnecting the motor 40 when using a crank is provided.

Des contacts dit de fin de course 5C, 6C faisant partie d'un circuit de pilotage du moteur 40 et reliés à une armoire de commande locale non représentée ici sont commandés par un circuit de signalisation de position associé aux contacts de l'appareil et garantissent d'une part la manoeuvre complète et d'autre part l'arrêt du moteur d'actionnement en fin de manoeuvre.So-called limit switch contacts 5C, 6C forming part of a motor control circuit 40 and connected to a local control cabinet not shown here are controlled by a position signaling circuit associated with the contacts of the device and guarantee on the one hand the complete maneuver and on the other hand the stopping of the actuating motor at the end of the maneuver.

En cas de manoeuvre de l'appareil, l'ordre de fonctionnement est transmis de l'armoire de commande locale au moteur 40 et les contacts 5C, 6C sont manoeuvrés en fin d'ouverture ou fermeture des contacts de l'appareil pour arrêter le fonctionnement du moteur 40.In the event of operation of the device, the operating order is transmitted from the local control cabinet to the motor 40 and the contacts 5C, 6C are operated at the end of opening or closing of the contacts of the device to stop the engine operation 40.

Selon l'invention, le circuit de pilotage est tronçonné et en partie contenu dans un connecteur 8 étanche et démontable par l'intermédiaire de connexions 42. Ce connecteur 8 assure, lorsqu'il est monté, la continuité du circuit de pilotage et la connexion des contacts 5C, 6C à l'armoire de commande locale.According to the invention, the control circuit is sectioned and partly contained in a waterproof connector 8 which can be dismantled via connections 42. This connector 8 ensures, when mounted, the continuity of the control circuit and the connection of contacts 5C, 6C to the local control cabinet.

Lors d'une panne du moteur d'actionnement 40, de son alimentation ou de défaut de la tension de pilotage des contacteurs de commande, le connecteur 8 est retiré comme représenté sur les figures 2A et 2B. Le circuit de pilotage est alors ouvert et déconnecté de l'armoire de commande locale.During a failure of the actuating motor 40, of its power supply or of failure of the piloting voltage of the control contactors, the connector 8 is removed as shown in FIGS. 2A and 2B. The control circuit is then opened and disconnected from the local control cabinet.

Est alors mis en place le dispositif d'actionnement conforme à l'invention en tant que dispositif de secours, comme représenté sur les figures 3A et 3B.Is then set up the actuating device according to the invention as a backup device, as shown in Figures 3A and 3B.

Ce dispositif comporte un moteur électrique 20 portatif à alimentation 23 autonome, avantageusement une batterie, équipé d'un agencement de liaison mécanique 22 avec le dispositif d'entraînement par rotation 15 et pourvu d'un dispositif de connexion électrique 25 aux connexions libérées 42.This device comprises a portable electric motor 20 with autonomous supply 23, advantageously a battery, equipped with a mechanical connection arrangement 22 with the rotary drive device 15 and provided with an electrical connection device 25 to the released connections 42.

Le moteur portatif 20 est logé dans un carter 21 de type carter de perceuse et l'agencement de liaison mécanique 22 est une tige liée au rotor du moteur 20 et de type tige de manivelle.The portable motor 20 is housed in a casing 21 of the drill casing type and the mechanical connection arrangement 22 is a rod linked to the rotor of the motor 20 and of the crank rod type.

Le dispositif de connexion 25 est un connecteur équipé de connexions 43 destinées à venir s'enficher dans les connexions 42 libérées, certaines de ces connexions 43 étant reliées au moteur 20 par un circuit de commande associé 24 précisé ci-dessous.The connection device 25 is a connector equipped with connections 43 intended to be plugged into the released connections 42, some of these connections 43 being connected to the motor 20 by an associated control circuit 24 specified below.

La figure 4 représente le dispositif d'actionnement de secours connecté au boîtier 2.FIG. 4 represents the emergency actuation device connected to the housing 2.

Le circuit de pilotage avec ses contacts 5C, 6C est alors connecté au moteur portatif 20, ses connexions à l'armoire de commande locale étant interrompues.The control circuit with its contacts 5C, 6C is then connected to the portable motor 20, its connections to the local control cabinet being interrupted.

Le moteur portatif 20 est actionné par le circuit de commande 24, dans un sens pour entraîner l'ouverture des contacts de l'appareil par poussée du bouton 29, dans l'autre sens pour entraîner la fermeture des contacts de l'appareil par poussée du bouton 30. Cet actionnement est piloté par les contacts 5C et 6C du boîtier, qui assurent l'arrêt du moteur 20 une fois les contacts de l'appareil haute tension totalement ouverts ou totalement fermés. Les figures 5 et 6 sont des schémas électriques d'un mode de réalisation préféré.The portable motor 20 is actuated by the control circuit 24, in one direction to cause the opening of the contacts of the device by pushing the button 29, in the other direction to cause the closing of the contacts of the device by pushing the button 30. This actuation is controlled by the contacts 5C and 6C of the housing, which stop the motor 20 once the contacts of the high voltage device fully open or completely closed. Figures 5 and 6 are electrical diagrams of a preferred embodiment.

La figure 5 représente l'installation en mode de fonctionnement normal. Relié électriquement à l'armoire de commande locale 1, le mécanisme de commande 2 contient le moteur d'actionnement 40 et le circuit de pilotage 4.Figure 5 shows the installation in normal operating mode. Electrically connected to the local control cabinet 1, the control mechanism 2 contains the actuation motor 40 and the control circuit 4.

Le moteur 40 est entraîné dans un sens correspondant à l'ouverture des contacts de l'appareil par le conducteur 5 et dans l'autre sens correspondant à la fermeture des contacts de l'appareil par le conducteur 6. Ces conducteurs électriques 5, 6 actionnent des interrupteurs 5A, 5B, 6A, 6B montés en un circuit en soi connu commandant le sens de rotation selon le conducteur alimenté.The motor 40 is driven in a direction corresponding to the opening of the contacts of the device by the conductor 5 and in the other direction corresponding to the closing of the contacts of the device by the conductor 6. These electrical conductors 5, 6 actuate switches 5A, 5B, 6A, 6B mounted in a circuit known per se controlling the direction of rotation according to the driver supplied.

Par ailleurs, ces conducteurs 5, 6 sont prolongés pour former le circuit de pilotage 4. Pour ce faire, ils comportent chacun un contact 5C, 6C avant d'être reliés à l'autre borne de l'armoire de commande 1.Furthermore, these conductors 5, 6 are extended to form the control circuit 4. To do this, they each comprise a contact 5C, 6C before being connected to the other terminal of the control cabinet 1.

Ces contacts 5C et 6C sont commandés par l'intermédiaire d'un agencement représenté par la ligne 7 symbolisant le circuit de signalisation de position des contacts de l'appareil. Par exemple, le contact 5C est ouvert lorsque les contacts de l'appareil ont atteint leur position d'ouverture complète. L'alimentation du moteur 40 est alors interrompue.These contacts 5C and 6C are controlled by means of an arrangement represented by line 7 symbolizing the position signaling circuit of the contacts of the device. For example, the contact 5C is open when the contacts of the device have reached their fully open position. The power supply to the motor 40 is then interrupted.

L'agencement ci-dessus décrit est en soi connu et équipe des appareils électriques de haute tension de type sectionneurs ou sectionneurs de terre.The above-described arrangement is known per se and equips high-voltage electrical devices of the disconnector or earthing switch type.

L'invention consiste à équiper le boîtier 2 d'un connecteur 8 qui, en position de fonctionnement normal, assure la continuité des conducteurs 5 et 6. De plus, selon l'invention , le boîtier est équipé des connexions 9 à 14, laissées ouvertes , une fois le connecteur 8 mis en place et dont la fonction sera précisée plus loin.The invention consists in equipping the housing 2 with a connector 8 which, in the normal operating position, ensures the continuity of the conductors 5 and 6. In addition, according to the invention, the housing is equipped with connections 9 to 14, left open, once the connector 8 is in place and whose function will be specified below.

De façon classique, le boîtier 2 est équipé d'un agencement d'entraînement mécanique 15 destiné à réaliser l'actionnement des contacts de l'appareil à l'aide d'un dispositif de secours au cas d'un malfonctionnement du moteur 40 ou équivalent.Conventionally, the housing 2 is equipped with a mechanical drive arrangement 15 intended to actuate the contacts of the device using a backup device in the event of a malfunction of the motor 40 or equivalent.

Lors d'un tel malfonctionnement, le connecteur 8 est retiré et le dispositif de secours est connecté comme représenté sur la figure 6.During such a malfunction, the connector 8 is removed and the backup device is connected as shown in FIG. 6.

Ce dispositif de secours comporte un moteur 20 logé dans un carter de type carter de perceuse, ce moteur 20 actionnant une tige 22 du type tige de manivelle destinée à coopérer avec l'agencement d'entraînement mécanique 15.This emergency device comprises a motor 20 housed in a casing of the drill casing type, this motor 20 actuating a rod 22 of the crank rod type intended to cooperate with the mechanical drive arrangement 15.

Ce moteur 20 est alimenté par une source autonome 23, de préférence une batterie, par l'intermédiaire d'un circuit de commande 24 relié à un connecteur 25 enfiché dans le boîtier à la place du connecteur 8.This motor 20 is supplied by an autonomous source 23, preferably a battery, via a control circuit 24 connected to a connector 25 inserted in the housing in place of the connector 8.

Ce circuit de commande 24 comporte un ensemble d'interrupteurs, dont deux 25, 26 sont fermés sous l'effet d'un premier bouton-poussoir 29 destiné à l'ouverture et dont les deux autres 27, 28 sont fermés sous l'effet d'un second bouton-poussoir 30 destiné à la fermeture. Ce circuit de commande 24 à branches parallèles, du même type que celui du moteur 40, permet l'inversion du sens de rotation selon le bouton-poussoir actionné.This control circuit 24 includes a set of switches, two of which 25, 26 are closed under the effect of a first push button 29 intended for opening and the other two of which 27, 28 are closed under the effect a second push button 30 intended for closing. This control circuit 24 with parallel branches, of the same type as that of the motor 40, allows the reversal of the direction of rotation according to the actuated push button.

Sont intercalés entre lui et le moteur 20, grâce au connecteur 25:

  • le contact 5C relié aux interrupteurs 25 et 26 du circuit de commande 24,
  • le contact 6C relié aux interrupteurs 27 et 28 du circuit de commande 24,
  • un interrupteur 31 optionnel actionné par un relais de verrouillage 32 assurant l'autorisation de la manoeuvre et connecté au connexions 9 et 10,
  • un pontage 33 reliant les connexions 11 à 14, propre au mécanisme de commande 2 et donc à l'appareil et assurant la rotation dans le sens correct du moteur 20.
Are interposed between it and the motor 20, thanks to the connector 25:
  • the contact 5C connected to the switches 25 and 26 of the control circuit 24,
  • the contact 6C connected to the switches 27 and 28 of the control circuit 24,
  • an optional switch 31 actuated by a locking relay 32 ensuring authorization of the operation and connected to connections 9 and 10,
  • a bridging 33 connecting the connections 11 to 14, specific to the control mechanism 2 and therefore to the apparatus and ensuring rotation in the correct direction of the motor 20.

Le moteur portatif 20 est donc piloté, de façon semblable au moteur 40, par les contacts 5C et 6C de le circuit de pilotage 4. Une fois les contacts de l'appareil totalement fermés ou totalement ouverts, l'alimentation du moteur portatif 20 est arrêtée et la manoeuvre interrompue.The portable motor 20 is therefore controlled, in a similar manner to the motor 40, by the contacts 5C and 6C of the control circuit 4. Once the contacts of the device are fully closed or fully open, the supply to the portable motor 20 is stopped and the maneuver interrupted.

Le relais de verrouillage 32 disposé dans l'armoire de commande locale 1 peut être connecté grâce aux connexions 9 et 10 en série au contact précédent 5C ou 6C. Ce relais assure une sécurité d'autorisation de la manoeuvre. Ceci interdit toute fausse manoeuvre du type fermeture de l'appareil sous tension ou en charge.The locking relay 32 arranged in the local control cabinet 1 can be connected by means of connections 9 and 10 in series to the previous contact 5C or 6C. This relay provides security for authorization of the maneuver. This prohibits any false closing operation of the device under voltage or under load.

Le pontage 33 détermine le sens de rotation d'ouverture ou de fermeture. En effet, ce sens peut varier selon le mécanisme de commande 2 et il est ainsi possible d'équiper le dispositif de secours des deux boutons poussoirs 29, 30 indiquant simplement et directement pour le bouton 29 "pour ouvrir" et pour le bouton 30 "pour fermer". Le pontage 33 peut donc être une liaison continue ou un inverseur de sens. L'opérateur n'a donc pas à se soucier du sens de rotation effectif de fermeture ou d'ouverture de l'appareil.The bridging 33 determines the direction of rotation of opening or closing. Indeed, this direction can vary according to the control mechanism 2 and it is thus possible to equip the emergency device with the two push buttons 29, 30 simply and directly indicating for the button 29 "to open" and for the button 30 " to close". Bridging 33 can therefore be a continuous link or a direction reverser. The operator therefore does not have to worry about the effective direction of rotation of the closing or opening of the device.
