Abstract

In the four pole contactor each pole features a moving contact bridge (29) cooperating with two fixed contacts. Several such bridges are housed in a common support (e.g. 28a) movable by an electromagnet (Ea). Each pair of power terminals is connected by a conductive fork to a fixed contact, and associated with one of the two bases (10a,10b) containing identical subassemblies (24a,24b). The subassemblies are joined together mechanically by a coupler (36) passing through apertures (34,35) in the sidewalls of the bases. Grooves are provided in the sidewalls for wires interconnecting the two electromagnet coils (Ca,Cb).

Description

La présente invention concerne un contacteur tétrapolaire comprenant dans un boítier et pour chaque pôle un pont de contact mobile coopérant avec deux contacts fixes et logé dans un support qui est commun à plusieurs ponts et est déplaçable par un électroaimant, ainsi que des couples de bornes de puissance raccordées chacune par une pièce conductrice à un contact fixe.The present invention relates to a four-pole contactor comprising in a housing and for each pole a mobile contact bridge cooperating with two fixed contacts and housed in a support which is common to several bridges and is movable by an electromagnet, as well as pairs of power terminals each connected by a conductive part to a fixed contact.

Les contacteurs tétrapolaires du type brièvement rappelé ici sont bien connus.Four-pole contactors of the type briefly recalled here are good known.

Pour construire un contacteur tétrapolaire d'un certain calibre en courant, il pourrait être intéressant de prendre certaines pièces de contacteurs tétrapolaires ou bipolaires de calibre inférieur en courant et l'on économiserait ainsi les coûts de développement des pièces correspondantes.To build a four-pole contactor of a certain current rating, it might be worth taking some parts from four-pole contactors or bipolar of lower caliber in current and this would save the costs of development of the corresponding parts.

L'invention est issue de cette constatation et vise à réduire le coût d'un contacteur tétrapolaire par recours à des constituants ou sous-ensembles de contacteurs bipolaires de même calibre ou de contacteurs bipolaires ou tétrapolaires de calibre inférieur.The invention is the result of this observation and aims to reduce the cost of a four-pole contactor using components or sub-assemblies of Two-pole contactors of the same rating or two-pole or four-pole contactors of lower caliber.

Selon l'invention, le boítier se compose de deux socles identiques, les socles étant appariés par des moyens de fixation et logeant chacun un sous-ensemble moteur identique ; les deux supports mobiles des ponts de contact sont solidarisés mécaniquement par une pièce de couplage traversant des lumières ménagées dans des parois latérales des socles appariés.According to the invention, the housing consists of two identical bases, the bases being paired by fixing means and each housing a sub-assembly identical engine; the two mobile supports of the contact bridges are mechanically secured by a coupling piece passing through lights formed in the side walls of matched bases.

Les socles utilisés pour constituer le contacteur tétrapolaire peuvent donc être des socles de contacteurs tétrapolaires de calibre inférieur ou des socles de contacteurs bipolaires de même calibre moyennant une légère adaptation de ceux-ci à la construction tétrapolaire. Les sous-ensembles moteurs peuvent être également des sous-ensembles bipolaires de même calibre ou tétrapolaires de calibre inférieur.The bases used to form the four-pole contactor can therefore be lower four-pole contactor sockets or bipolar contactors of the same rating with a slight adaptation of these to four-pole construction. The motor sub-assemblies can also be bipolar sub-assemblies of the same caliber or four-pole sub-assemblies of lower caliber.

Dans un mode de réalisation préférentiel, les sous-ensembles moteurs sont conçus en tant que sous-ensembles tétrapolaires de calibre inférieur et les pièces conductrices fixes correspondantes de pôles voisins sont réunies deux par deux en forme de fourche pour coopérer avec une seule borne de puissance.In a preferred embodiment, the motor sub-assemblies are designed as lower four-pole sub-assemblies and the corresponding fixed conductive parts of neighboring poles are joined together two by two fork-shaped to cooperate with a single power terminal.

Il est avantageux que le couplage des sous-ensembles moteurs identiques s'effectue au moyen de leviers montés pivotants sur des paliers prévus dans la carcasse de bobine, ces leviers comportant chacun un bras mené en prise avec l'armature mobile de l'électroaimant et un bras de couplage muni d'un logement ou élément de forme analogue pour recevoir l'extrémité de la pièce de couplage.It is advantageous for the coupling of identical motor sub-assemblies is carried out by means of levers pivotally mounted on bearings provided in the coil carcass, these levers each comprising an arm driven in engagement with the movable armature of the electromagnet and a coupling arm provided with a housing or element of similar shape to receive the end of the coupling piece.

Le contacteur tétrapolaire illustré sur les figures comprend un socle 10 constitué par juxtaposition et assemblage de deux boítiers identiques 10a, 10b et d'un capot commun 11. Les boítiers ainsi appariés présentent de façon usuelle vers une paroi arrière 12 des dispositions 13 permettant de fixer le socle sur un rail normalisé et des parois latérales 14, 15 munies d'éléments d'emboítement mutuel 16 ; on peut aussi assembler les deux boítiers entre eux par des éléments d'encliquetage ou par tous moyens de fixation usuels.The four-pole contactor illustrated in the figures comprises a base 10 constituted by juxtaposition and assembly of two identical boxes 10a, 10b and a common cover 11. The cases thus paired usually present towards a rear wall 12 of the arrangements 13 allowing the base to be fixed on a standardized rail and side walls 14, 15 provided with mutual interlocking elements 16; we can also assemble the two boxes together by snap-in elements or by all usual fixing means.

Le capot 11 est rapporté à l'avant des deux boítiers appariés en contribuant à leur assemblage, en leur étant assemblé par pénétration de pattes d'encliquetage 17 dans des logements appropriés 18. Le capot présente vers l'avant une partie centrale proéminente 19 qui permet de loger les armatures fixes des électroaimants et des parties haute et basse en retrait 20, 21 munies d'ouvertures pour l'accès d'un tournevis aux bornes de puissance hautes B1, B3, B5, B7 et basses B2, B4, B6, B8, appartenant aux deux boítiers 10a, 10b ainsi qu'à deux bornes latérales haute et basse A1, A2 d'alimentation des bobines, ces deux bornes appartenant au boítier 10a. Il convient de remarquer que le capot commun 11 occulte les logements des bornes de bobine qui sont prévus dans le boítier 10b et qui sont situés sensiblement à mi-longueur du socle 10.The cover 11 is attached to the front of the two cases paired in contributing to their assembly, by being assembled by penetration of legs latching 17 in appropriate housings 18. The cover presents forward a prominent central part 19 which accommodates the fixed frames of the electromagnets and recessed upper and lower parts 20, 21 provided with openings for the access of a screwdriver to the high power terminals B1, B3, B5, B7 and low B2, B4, B6, B8, belonging to the two boxes 10a, 10b as well as to two terminals high and low side A1, A2 for coil supply, these two terminals belonging to the housing 10a. It should be noted that the common cover 11 conceals the coil terminal housings which are provided in the housing 10b and which are located substantially mid-length of the base 10.

Les boítiers 10a, 10b comprennent des logements 22 propres à recevoir les bornes de puissance B1-B8, ainsi que des logements latéraux 23 prévus pour recevoir les bornes de bobine A1, A2.The housings 10a, 10b include housings 22 suitable for receiving the power terminals B1-B8, as well as lateral housings 23 provided for receive the coil terminals A1, A2.

Deux sous-ensembles moteurs identiques 24a, 24b comprenant un électroaimant Ea, Eb et contacts mobiles sont logés dans les boítiers 10a, 10b ; ils comprennent chacun une armature fixe 25a, 25b située vers l'avant du contacteur, une armature mobile 26a, 26b et une bobine Ca, Cb enroulée sur une carcasse isolante 27a, 27b (voir figure 5). L'armature mobile 26a, 26b se déplace en translation et elle est solidaire d'un support de contacts tétrapolaire 28a, 28b, c'est-à-dire portant quatre ponts à double coupure 29, munis chacun de deux contacts mobiles, et coopérant avec des pièces conductrices fixes de contact. Chaque ensemble mobile est sollicité par un ressort de rappel non indiqué.Two identical motor sub-assemblies 24a, 24b comprising a electromagnet Ea, Eb and movable contacts are housed in the housings 10a, 10b; they each comprise a fixed armature 25a, 25b situated towards the front of the contactor, a movable frame 26a, 26b and a coil Ca, Cb wound on a carcass insulator 27a, 27b (see Figure 5). The movable frame 26a, 26b moves in translation and it is integral with a four-pole contact support 28a, 28b, that is to say bearing four double-break bridges 29, each provided with two movable contacts, and cooperating with fixed conductive contact parts. Each mobile assembly is biased by an unspecified return spring.

Dans chacun des boítiers 10a, 10b, les pièces conductrices fixes 30 joignant les bornes de puissance à vis Bi aux ponts de contact 29 ont (voir figure 4) une forme de fourche, de manière à présenter vers une borne respective Bi une languette de contact unique 31 et vers le support mobile 28 deux branches de contact 32 portant chacune un contact fixe 33. On comprend que les supports 28 tétrapolaires peuvent donc être des supports de contacteurs existants de calibre inférieur, ce qui évite de concevoir des supports mobiles spécifiques pour le contacteur ici décrit.In each of the housings 10a, 10b, the fixed conductive parts 30 joining the screw Bi power terminals to the contact bridges 29 a (see FIG. 4) a fork shape, so as to present towards a respective terminal Bi a single contact tab 31 and towards the movable support 28 two contact branches 32 each carrying a fixed contact 33. It is understood that the four-pole supports 28 can therefore be existing contactor supports of lower caliber, which avoids designing specific mobile supports for the contactor described here.

Dans le mode de réalisation des figures 4 et 5, les parois latérales 14, 15 des boítiers appariés 10a, 10b comprennent de chaque côté une lumière rectiligne borgne 34, 35 orientée perpendiculairement à la face avant du contacteur, de façon à pouvoir loger une pièce de couplage 36 des supports mobiles 28 des deux boítiers.In the embodiment of Figures 4 and 5, the side walls 14, 15 matched housings 10a, 10b comprise on each side a rectilinear light blind 34, 35 oriented perpendicular to the front face of the contactor, so as to be able to house a coupling part 36 of the mobile supports 28 of the two housings.

La pièce de couplage 36 est réalisée sous forme de biellette engagée par ses extrémités dans des ouvertures latérales correspondantes des supports 28. Des échancrures 38 sont également prévues dans les parties haute et basse des parois latérales 14, 15, près des bornes de bobine A1, A2, pour faciliter le passage des fils d'interconnexion des deux bobines C. Les bobines pourraient être connectées en parallèle sur A1, A2 ; elles sont présentement connectées en série. Des doigts 39 ou éléments de forme analogue se terminant par des parties encochées 40 situées sensiblement à la même hauteur que les échancrures 38 sont par ailleurs prévus dans les boítiers 10a, 10b pour guider les fils d'interconnexion des bobines.The coupling part 36 is produced in the form of a rod engaged by its ends in corresponding lateral openings of the supports 28. Des notches 38 are also provided in the upper and lower parts of the walls side 14, 15, near the coil terminals A1, A2, to facilitate the passage of the wires interconnection of the two coils C. The coils could be connected by parallel on A1, A2; they are currently connected in series. Fingers 39 or elements of similar shape ending in notched parts 40 located substantially at the same height as the notches 38 are also provided in housings 10a, 10b to guide the interconnection wires of the coils.

Dans une variante préférée de réalisation illustrée sur les figures 6 et 7, chaque sous-ensemble moteur comporte un levier pivotant 50 articulé par des tourillons 51 dans des paliers 52 prévus dans un flasque arrière 53 de la carcasse de bobine 27. Le levier 50 est en forme de L et comprend un bras mené et un bras de couplage situés de part et d'autre des tourillons 51. Le bras mené 54 se termine par une fourchette ou une ouverture 55 en prise sur une aiguille, un téton ou un autre élément 56 solidaire de l'armature mobile 26 ; le bras de couplage 57 présente en son milieu un logement latéral 58 pour recevoir l'extrémité de la pièce de couplage 36 et à son extrémité libre un index de visualisation 59 susceptible d'apparaítre dans une fenêtre 60 du boítier pour indiquer la position marche du contacteur. In a preferred variant of embodiment illustrated in FIGS. 6 and 7, each engine sub-assembly comprises a pivoting lever 50 articulated by pins 51 in bearings 52 provided in a rear flange 53 of the carcass of spool 27. The lever 50 is L-shaped and includes a driven arm and a coupling located on either side of the pins 51. The driven arm 54 ends in a fork or an opening 55 engaging a needle, a nipple or the like element 56 secured to the movable frame 26; the coupling arm 57 present in sound middle a lateral housing 58 to receive the end of the coupling piece 36 and at its free end a display index 59 capable of appearing in a window 60 of the housing to indicate the on position of the contactor.

Le couplage effectué au moyen des leviers 50 améliore l'équilibrage de l'ensemble mobile en cas de rupture de l'alimentation de l'une des bobines.The coupling carried out by means of the levers 50 improves the balancing of the mobile assembly in the event of a supply break in one of the coils.

Le sous-ensemble moteur est représenté sur la figure 6 en position arrêt et sur la figure 7 en position marche.The engine sub-assembly is shown in FIG. 6 in the stopped position. and in Figure 7 in the on position.
