Definitions

  • the invention relates to a switch with trained as a contact blade movable switch contacts for use in SF 6 -Mittelthesesschaltanlagen, in particular a three-position power switch, whose phases are each associated with a quenching coil as an arc quenching device.
  • a three-position circuit breaker with the ON-OFF GEERDET positions must be able to safely carry and switch the rated and short-circuit currents with its contact system, without the contacts becoming welded or mechanically failing.
  • the switching ability is u.a. thereby ensuring that the arc generated during switching is kept as short as possible between the fixed contact and the movable switching contact of the respective phase and rapidly extinguished by an arc quenching device, so that the temperature load on the contacts remains low.
  • Significant forces are required to switch the moving switch contacts of a three-position circuit breaker.
  • the object of the invention is to provide a switch with trained as a contact blade movable switch contacts for use in SF 6 -Mittelthesesschaltanlagen according to the preamble of claim 1, which facilitates switchable and its erosion resistance is increased in ensuring the continuous current carrying capacity.
  • the generic switch is formed from a formed with at least one contact blade and operable via a switching shaft switching contact, a fixed contact and an arc quenching device.
  • the invention consists in the fact that the one pivotally mounted shaft and a substantially formed in a plane perpendicular to the pivot axis contact surface for the fixed contact having contact blade is formed so that the contact surface is formed on a relative to the shaft considerably thicker contact head and this for a Arc forming during switching consists in part of a burn-off-resistant, high-temperature-resistant tungsten-copper alloy.
  • This design of the contact blade makes it possible to significantly reduce the mass of the switching contact, thus reducing the drive energy for its switching movement.
  • the continuous current carrying capacity is ensured by the fact that the contact surface is formed for the fixed contact on the existing copper part of the contact head.
  • the existing of the tungsten-copper alloy part of the contact head increases the heat resistance of the switching contact in the area acted upon by an arc and prevents it in a burn-off at the switching contact.
  • the contact head is fixed contact side spherically formed, so that the current transition between the copper region of the contact head and the copper contact surface of the fixed contact can be made, and the switch blade can be slotted in the longitudinal direction at least in the region of the contact head centered to share the current to be passed.
  • the arc has a switch-contact-side and a fixed-contact-side base point, it is expedient to form a surface which receives the respective foot point at the respective contact substantially at right angles to the arc.
  • shock absorbers In order to damp the striking of the switching contact in a switching contact movement in the respective end position, it is advantageous to arrange shock absorbers in the defined end positions.
  • a three-position circuit breaker is shown with one of two parallel contact blades 1 (also Fig. 4) formed of copper actuated switch contact, a fixed contact 2 and a quenching coil 3.
  • the contact blade 1 forming the switching contact is pivotally mounted about a pivot axis S and can be actuated jointly via a connecting rod 4 and a rocker arm 6 which is connected in a rotationally fixed manner to a switching shaft 5.
  • They each have a shaft 7 and a fixed contact 2 with the corresponding contact surface 8, which, like two opposing contact surfaces 9 of the fixed contact 2, is formed in a plane perpendicular to the pivot axis S.
  • Fig. 4 shows that this is formed on a relative to the shaft 7 considerably thicker contact head 10.
  • the contact head thickness is about one and a half to two times the thickness of the shaft.
  • the contact head 10 is made of copper and has a tip 11 made of a high-temperature resistant tungsten-copper impregnated alloy with 30% copper, which is subjected to high thermal stress by an arc forming during switching.
  • Fixed contact side of the contact head 10 is formed spherical and is pressed by a spring force F against the fixed contact 2.
  • This consists of Copper and, in the region corresponding to the tip 11 of the contact head 10 also has a tip 12 made of said high-temperature resistant tungsten-copper impregnated alloy.
  • the tip 11 abuts against a shock absorber 13.
  • Fig. 2 the switch is shown in a movement phase between the switch positions ON and OFF. Between the tips 11 and 12 of the two switch contacts 1 and 2, an arc LB is formed, which has its two bases each on a substantially perpendicular to the arc-shaped surface 14 and 15 at the respective tip 11 and 12 respectively.
  • FIG. 3 shows the switching contact 1 resting against a ground contact 16 and a shock absorber 17 in the switch position GEERDET.
  • the tip 11 of the visible switch blade 1 corresponds to a region 18 formed at the grounding contact.
  • a contact fair 1 is shown in a side view and in a plan view. In the latter, a centrally formed in the region of the contact head 10 in the longitudinal direction gap 19 can be seen, which serves a current division.
  • Figs. 7a and 7b show further alternative embodiments of a contact blade 1, which differ by the formation of the tungsten-copper tip.
  • a tip 20 which is reduced to the front edge of the contact head 10 and in FIG. 7 b a half-side tip 21 can be seen in contrast to the previously described embodiment.
