Definitions
- the invention relates to an electrical switch with the features of the preamble of claim 1.
- Such switches are known from DE-A-4 341 214 and from DE-A-3 340 250. These switches work with a magnetic circuit for electromagnetic Undervoltage release together. If the monitored voltage drops below one determined value, the magnetic circuit is opened and consequently one manually operated switching element transferred to its off position. In this switch-off position the circuit of the electrical switch is interrupted.
- the Switching element is coupled to the movable magnet armature of the magnetic circuit in such a way that when the switching element is in the switched-off position, the magnetic circuit is automatically closed again. As a result, the magnetic circuit is also without The presence of the required minimum voltage is closed again.
- the electromagnet therefore only needs to be closed with a magnetic circuit for the magnet armature generate the required holding force. This holding force is much smaller than the attraction force to close the magnetic circuit when it is back Tension.
- a disadvantage of the known switches is the complex coupling between the switching element and the magnet armature.
- the switching movement of the Switching device from its on position to its off position is over transfer complex rocker arm designs to the magnetic armature.
- This Coupling complicates the manufacture of the undervoltage release necessary components and increases manufacturing costs also allow the complicated rocker arm designs are only relatively small Power transmission between the switching element and the magnet armature.
- Already minor Signs of wear and tear of these swivel levers can make the proper Interfering with the operation of the undervoltage release.
- individual coupling components could be dimensioned stronger become.
- this has an increased space requirement for the switch housing and / or a housing provided for the magnetic circuit.
- the invention has for its object an electrical switch of the beginning to improve the type mentioned in terms of construction and safety.
- the switching element only has to be proportionate Apply small forces to keep the magnet armature in its tightened position To move the position on the magnetic core and fix it there.
- the good power transmission caused by the fixing slide from the switching element to the Magnetic anchors also favor a simple construction of the Switching element and its stability during the operating life of the switch.
- the fixing slide is preferably mounted displaceably on the housing side, as a result of which Wrong movements and faulty power transmissions between the switching element and Magnetic armatures can be reliably avoided.

- the switching element is in the form of one or two push buttons trained, which pressurizes the user to operate them manually and thereby be slowly shifted.
- the Longitudinal movement of the push button parallel to the translational movement of the fixing slide, so that the push button and the fixing slide are particularly easily coupled can be
- the magnetic circuit is opened and the automatic sequence is repeated Turning off the switch and closing the magnetic circuit started. This automatic sequence when attempting to transfer the switching element to its switch-on position helps to ensure that the safety requirements for the Switches are met.
- the fixing slide and the switching element are preferably in such a manner with one another connected that the fixing slide from the switching element in its on position is decoupled.
- the fixing slide and the magnet armature are opposite the switching element is freely movable. This free mobility ensures reliable release of the switch in the event of undervoltage. Moreover supports the decoupling of the switching element and the fixing slide the aforementioned Sequence of events when trying to switch the switching element in spite of undervoltage Switch to the on position.
- the fixing slide has one transverse to it Movement direction extending shoulder on.
- undervoltage i.e. if the magnet armature falls off, the fixer slide is moved and acted upon a switch lock connected to the switching element.
- the key switch is to open and close a switching contact of the circuit between a Contact opening position and a contact closing position movable and transfers the switching element to its switch-off position when the switching contact is opened.
- the fixing slide ensures that undervoltage is triggered a technically simple automatic sequence for interrupting the circuit and closing the magnetic circuit again. For triggering this automatic sequence, i.e. the application of the key switch, apart from the fixing slide itself, no other components are necessary. This supports a space-saving and technically simple construction of the electrical Switch and the undervoltage unit.
