Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a switch assembly comprising an apparatus and a contactor device, as well as a mechanical combination part of the contactor device with the protection and electrical interconnection device between the two devices, the part being intended to be placed in an intermediate position between the two devices and to be connected to the power terminals of the two devices by respective pins directed in opposite directions.
  • the protective device can be for example a circuit breaker device or a device fuse holder.
  • An assembly is described in document EP-588 712.
  • the association mechanics of the contactor device with the circuit breaker device is performed in particular by engaging a heel of the association piece in a recess provided at the rear of the contactor device.
  • Such an association piece is specific with only one size of contactor device and, for assembling various types of devices contactors to the same circuit breaker device, we have to resort to various intermediate parts.
  • the object of the invention is to allow assembling assemblies easily and at low cost. switches, in particular of motor starter.
  • the association part has means of adaptation in position, in particular for assembling a fixed-size protective device to devices contactors of different sizes or adjust the relative position of the two devices of the switch assembly.
  • the association piece preferably comprises an insulating body provided at the rear with at least one support element for one of the devices, the adaptation means allowing the choice of the position of this support element in depth and / or in height.
  • These adaptation means may include at least one hooking heel which is intended to secure the association piece with the contactor device and / or the protective device and which has a variable position, in particular by being provided on an adjustable part fixed to the association piece, for example snap-on the latter in different positions offset in depth, and / or provided with support offset in height.
  • Figure 1 shows a side view of a motor starter assembly according to the invention.
  • Figures 2 and 3 are enlarged perspective views of the part of association of the assembly of FIG. 1, the part being represented in two states allowing the mounting of contactors of different sizes.
  • FIGS. 4 to 6 show a side view of part of an assembly according to the invention, with assembly of contactors of different sizes to the same circuit breaker.
  • the assembly of FIG. 1 comprises a circuit breaker 10 and a contactor 20 assembled by means of an intermediate piece 30.
  • the circuit breaker 10 can be fixed to its rear part to a support such as a rail standardized by fastening elements 11 and has at its front part on and off buttons 12. It also has upstream (high) 13 and downstream (low) power terminals 14.
  • Contactor 20 has rear faces 21 and front 22, as well as power terminals upstream (high) 23 and downstream (low) 24.
  • the intermediate piece 30 is relatively shaped flat and includes an insulating body 31, as well as integral conductors with the body and connected by high pins 33 to the lower terminals 14 of the circuit breaker and by low pins 34 to the high terminals 23 of the contactor.
  • the pins shown are fixed, but could be adjustable to fit at variable inter-terminal steps.
  • the part 30 is held on the circuit breaker by retaining elements such as heels 32 cooperating with recesses 15, for example slots, provided in the circuit breaker box (see Figure 4), as well as by tightening the pins 33 in terminals 14.
  • the contactor is fixed under the part 30 by a heel 35 provided at the rear of a part 36 which is snapped in an adjustable manner at the rear of the part 30, as well as by tightening pins 34 in terminals 23. Adjusting the position of the part 36 makes it possible to adjust the position of the heel 35 in the direction X, that is to say in depth.
  • the removable part 36 is square-shaped with a horizontal wing 37 of holding in the part 30 and a vertical wing 38 for supporting the contactor.
  • the wing horizontal 37 is engaged against a notch, abutment or similar support 36a, 36b of the body 31 of the part 30 and the vertical support wing 38 is provided with two notches or other similar shapes 39.40 on which must hang the rear part of the case of the contactor.
  • the part 36 is shown in the retracted position in FIG. 2 and in the advanced position in FIG. 3, the stop 36b being located further back than the stop 36a.
  • the two notches 39.40 allow the mounting of ribs 25 or other contactor shapes located at a variable height depending on the type of contactor relative to its high face 26; this high face 26 is defined by various stop elements and it is applied against the lower face of the part 30.
  • the notches 39.40 therefore make it possible to adapt the association part to the size of the contactor in the direction Z, that is to say in height.
  • FIG. 4 the mounting of a small contactor (deep) by a rib 25 engaged in the top notch 39; in Figure 5 the assembly of a large contactor (deep), part 30 being respectively in forward and backward position. In these two cases, the contactor cooperates by a rib 25 with the high notch 39 of the part 30.
  • FIG. 6 is shown the mounting of a large contactor (in height), i.e. of which the part front is higher than the rear part, its rib 25 is then located lower relative to its upper face 26 and is engaged in the lower notch 40 of the part 30.
  • the invention also relates to the possibility of adjusting the position of the contactor relatively to the circuit breaker by adjustable notches or parts associated with part 30 of the side of the circuit breaker.
  • the male or female forms which have been described can of course be reversed.
  • adaptation can be made on the position of the rear face 21 of the contactor relative to that of the rear face 16 of the circuit breaker, or of the front face 22 of the contactor with respect to the face before 17 of the circuit breaker.
  • the circuit breaker described can be replaced by a device fuse holder or other similar protective device.
