Definitions

  • the SDE function of the electrical fault signal indicates the nature of the default electric trip. This is a mechanical and electrical signal that simultaneously locks the circuit breaker in the open state. The reclosing of the circuit breaker is only possible if the user has previously cleared the locking by recalling the signaling member in a rest position.
  • the object of the invention is to provide a tripping device for a circuit breaker with electrical fault signaling, allowing the customer to choose the operating mode himself, with or without reclosing the circuit breaker in the presence of the indication of the fault. .
  • the triggering device is characterized in that the trigger bar is subdivided into a first actuating part associated with the trigger rod of the actuator, and a second actuating part cooperating with the actuating member. signaling, that a mechanical connection coupling is arranged between the two actuating parts being adjustable between a coupled position and a disengaged position, and that a control lever ensures the locking in the active position of the second piece of actuation to keep the fault information on the signaling member, while the first actuating part automatically returns to the inactive position when said mechanical connection is in the disengaged position.
  • the mechanical coupling connection between the two actuating parts of the trip bar is reversible between the coupled position and the disengaged position, and vice versa.
  • control lever is pivotally mounted on an axis between a first retaining position on the second actuating part in the inactive position, and a second position ensuring said locking in the active position.
  • a return spring urges the control lever to said second locking position after the mechanism is triggered.
  • the coupling mechanical connection comprises a male transmission element capable of cooperating with a female element following a relative displacement in translation of the two actuating parts.
  • Each actuating part of the trip bar is biased to the inactive position by a return spring.
  • the electrical fault indicating member comprises an auxiliary contact controlled by means of a transmission lever when the second actuating part is driven into the active position.
  • an electric default trigger device 10 is associated with a control mechanism 12 to cause the separation of the contacts of a circuit breaker when detecting a fault current.
  • the triggering device 10 is housed in a housing 14 of molded insulating material, enclosing an actuator 16 cooperating with a rotating trigger bar 18, and a signaling member 20, called SDE electrical fault signal.
  • the actuator 16 comprises an electromagnetic relay disposed in a compartment 22 of the housing 14, and having a control coil electrically connected to a processing circuit in connection with the current sensors (not shown).
  • the actuator 16 is provided with a magnetic core movable in translation, coupled to a trigger rod 24 capable of occupying an armed position or a triggered position, respectively when the intensity of the excitation current of the coil is in below and above a predetermined threshold.
  • the relay may be of the type described in document FR-A-2,573,570, but any other relay could of course be used.
  • the trip rod 24 of the relay extends perpendicularly with respect to the transverse trigger bar 18, which is provided with a lateral tab 26 for transmitting the tripping order to the control half-moon 28 of the ratchet. opening of the mechanism 12.
  • the lug assembly 26 of the first piece 30, and the half-moon 28 constitutes a mechanical trigger connection 29 with the mechanism 12.
  • the signaling member 20 is constituted by an auxiliary contact 27 indicating the electric default trigger when moving the trigger bar 18 to the active position following the intervention of the relay.
  • the trigger bar 18 comprises two separate actuating parts 30, 32, mounted in transverse alignment along the axis 34 of rotation.
  • the two parts 30, 32 are equipped with a mechanical connection coupling 36 operable between a coupled position ( Figures 2 and 3), or a disengaged position ( Figure 4).
  • the two actuating parts 30, 32 are secured to one another, and simultaneously driven in rotation so as to constitute a single-piece release bar 18, locked in the active position during the passage of the actuator 16 to the triggered position.
  • the locking of the trip bar 18 is ensured by means of a control lever 38 cooperating with the second actuating part 32.
  • the control lever 38 is pivotally mounted on an axis 40 intermediate between a first retaining position of the second piece 32 in the inactive position (FIG. 5), and a second locking position of the second piece 32 in the signaling position. triggering ( Figure 6).
  • One end of the control lever 38 is provided with a retaining hook 42 cooperating in the first position with a bearing surface 44 of the second piece 32 ( Figure 5).
  • the opposite end 45 of the control lever 38 is subjected to the action of a compression spring 46 which tends to move said lever 38 towards the second locking position after the erasing of the bearing surface 44 (FIG. ).
  • Each actuating piece (30, 32) of the trigger bar 18 is urged towards the inactive position by a return spring 48, 50 formed by a torsion spring threaded onto a cylindrical end piece 52, 54 of the piece 30, 32 corresponding.
  • the first actuating part 30 is provided with a first pivot 56 rotatable housed in a bearing on one of the side faces of the box 14.
  • the second actuating part 32 similarly comprises a second pivot 58 positioned in a bearing of the opposite face, and aligned with the first pivot 56 to constitute the axis of rotation 34 of the trigger bar 18.
  • the endpiece 54 of the second part 32 is extended axially by a half-shaft 62 arranged facing another half-shaft 60 of the first actuating part 30.
  • the mechanical linkage coupling 36 comprises a male element 64 secured to the second actuating part 32 and intended to be translated into a notch of a female element 66 of the first actuating part 30 to obtain the position coupled ( Figure 3).
  • An opposite translation movement causes the connection mechanical coupling 36 to the disengaged position as soon as the male element 64 has left the notch of the female element 66 ( Figure 4).
  • the setting by the user of the mechanical coupling connection 36 of the trip bar 18 between the coupled position and the disengaged position, and vice versa, provides two modes of operation of the trigger device 10 according to the invention.
  • the male element 64 is introduced into the female element 66 by bringing the second actuating part 32 closer to the first part 30 (FIG. 3), positioning the two half-shafts 60, 62 abutting one another .
  • the trip bar 18 is in the inactive position, and the actuator 16 is in the armed position.
  • the retaining hook 42 is in contact with the bearing surface 44 of the second actuating part 32 and the spring 46 is compressed.
  • the rod 24 of the actuator 16 comes to the triggered position rotating the first piece 30 and the second piece 32 to the active position.
  • the hook 42 is released, and the control lever 38 moves from the first retaining position to the second locking position under the detent action of the spring 46.
  • the tab 26 of the first actuating piece 30 of the bar tripping 18 transmits the tripping order to the mechanism 12 of the circuit breaker, and the second part 32 cooperates with the signaling member 20 via a transmission lever 68 to provide the SDE function of the electrical fault signal (FIG. ).
  • the SDE function makes it possible to signal to the user the nature of the electric default trip, and the control lever 38 ensures the positive locking of the trip bar 18 in the active position.
  • the circuit breaker remains kept in the open state, making it impossible to close the contacts again if there is no manual or electromechanical intervention on the control lever 38.
  • the user For the reclosing operation of the circuit breaker, the user must deliberately erase the locking of the trip bar 18, by pressing (see arrow F in Figure 6) on the end 45 of the control lever 38.
  • the two springs 50, 52 return the trip bar 18 to the inactive position ( Figure 5) and cause the hooking of the control lever 38 in the first retaining position. Then simply operate the mechanism 12 for closing the contacts of the circuit breaker.
  • the two actuating parts 30, 32 of the trip bar 18 are rotated towards the active position, causing the tripping of the circuit breaker via the mechanical trigger connection 29, and the indication of the electrical fault by means of the auxiliary contact 27 of the signaling member 20.
  • the rotational drive of the second piece 32 by the first piece 30 is unidirectional in the direction of pivoting corresponding to the trigger. In the opposite direction to the tripping, the connection between the two parts 30, 32 is completely broken.
  • the second actuating part 32 remains locked in the active position by the control lever 38 (FIG. 6), but the first actuating part 30 automatically returns to the inactive position under the return action of the spring 48. SDE fault remains, while the circuit breaker can be operated to the closed state to ensure continuity of service.
  • the user can thus order the reclosing of the circuit breaker after tripping, while retaining the information of the fault that has occurred.
