Abstract

Die Erfindung betrifft eine thermisch gesteuerte elektrische Schaltvorrichtung 1 weist ein Bimetallelement 2, eine Einstelleinrichtung 3 und eine Schaltkontakteinrichtung 6 auf, die einerseits über das Bimetallelement verstellt werden kann und andererseits hinsichtlich ihres Schaltpunktes mit der Einstelleinrichtung 3 wirkvebunden ist. Das Festende 7 des Bimetallelementes 2, ein Befestigungsende 8 der Schaltkontakteinrichtung 6, ein Trägerelement 9 für die Einstelleinrichtung 3 sowie Anschlußkontaktfahnen 10, 11 sind an einer Trägervorrichtung 12 angeordnet. Um die Schaltvorrichtung 1 hinsichtlich ihrer mechanischen Eigenschaften zu verbessern sowie hinsichtlich der Anzahl der notwendigen Einzelteile zu verbessern, besteht die Trägervorrichtung 12 aus einem einstückigen, aus Isoliermaterial ausgebildeten Halteblock 13 mit einer Mehrzahl von im wesentlichen parallel verlaufenden Aufnahmeschlitzen 14 in die die von der Trägervorrichtung 12 gehaltenen Einzelteile Schaltkontakteinrichtung 6, Bimetallelement 2 sowie die Anschlußkontakte 10, 11 eingesteckt werden können. Das Trägerelement 9 für die Einstelleinrichtung 3 geht einstückig in die Trägervorrichtung 12 über.

The invention relates to a thermally controlled electrical switching device 1 has a bimetallic element 2, an adjusting device 3 and a switching contact device 6, which on the one hand can be adjusted via the bimetallic element and on the other hand is operatively connected with the adjusting device 3 with regard to its switching point. The fixed end 7 of the bimetallic element 2, a fastening end 8 of the switch contact device 6, a carrier element 9 for the setting device 3 and connection contact tabs 10, 11 are arranged on a carrier device 12. In order to improve the switching device 1 with regard to its mechanical properties and to improve the number of individual parts required, the carrier device 12 consists of a one-piece holding block 13 made of insulating material with a plurality of substantially parallel receiving slots 14 into which the carrier device 12 extends Individual parts held switch contact device 6, bimetallic element 2 and the connecting contacts 10, 11 can be inserted. The carrier element 9 for the setting device 3 merges in one piece into the carrier device 12.
