Selon un aspect de l'invention, un ensemble-disjoncteur com- 15 prend au moins un disjoncteur et un support de disjoncteurAccording to one aspect of the invention, a circuit breaker assembly comprises at least one circuit breaker and a circuit breaker support
Avantageusement, le disjoncteur et le support comprennent chacun des moyens pour coopérer avec au moins un accessoire d'isolement de disjoncteur, les moyens du disjoncteur et les moyens du support étant identiques. On peut ainsi utiliser les mêmes accessoires pour 20 un disjoncteur dépourvu de support et pour un support destiné à recevoir un disjoncteur. On réduit ainsi le nombre d'accessoires nécessaires et, par conséquent leur coût. Les accessoires d'isolement pour disjoncteur apportent à un support de disjoncteur une sécurité accrue.Advantageously, the circuit breaker and the support each comprise means for cooperating with at least one circuit breaker isolation accessory, the means of the circuit breaker and the means of the support being identical. The same accessories can thus be used for a circuit breaker without support and for a support intended to receive a circuit breaker. This reduces the number of accessories needed and therefore their cost. Circuit breaker isolation accessories provide added safety to a circuit breaker support.
Un mode de réalisation de l'invention est illustré par: 5 la figure 1 est une vue en perspective d'un disjoncteur avec ses accessoires en éclaté; la figure 2 est une vue en perspective d'un support de disjoncteur; et la figure 3 est une vue en perspective d'un support de dis- 30 joncteur avec ses accessoires en éclaté.An embodiment of the invention is illustrated by: Figure 1 is a perspective view of a circuit breaker with its exploded accessories; Figure 2 is a perspective view of a circuit breaker support; and Figure 3 is a perspective view of a circuit breaker support with its accessories exploded.
Sur la figure 1 , un disjoncteur 1 présente une forme générale de parallélépipède avec une face supérieure 2 et quatre faces latérales, dont seules la grande face 3 et la petite face 4 sont visibles.In FIG. 1, a circuit breaker 1 has the general shape of a parallelepiped with an upper face 2 and four lateral faces, of which only the large face 3 and the small face 4 are visible.
La grande face 3 est généralement plane et est pourvue de 35 deux rainures 7 et 8 parallèles disposées l'une à proximité de la petite face 4 et l'autre à proximité de l'autre petite face, non visible. La grande face non visible est, de préférence, identique à la grande face 3.The large face 3 is generally planar and is provided with two parallel grooves 7 and 8 arranged one near the small side 4 and the other near the other small side, not visible. The large non-visible face is preferably identical to the large face 3.
La petite face 4 est généralement plane et est pourvue de trois perçages 9, 10 et 1 1 destinés à recevoir des conducteurs électri- ques, non représentés, qui pourront être fixés à l'intérieur du disjoncteur 1, et de deux rainures 12 et 13 parallèles. La rainure 12 est disposée entre les perçages 9 et 10 et la rainure 13 est disposée entre les perçages 10 et 11. La petite face non visible est, de préférence, identique à la petite face 4. Plus généralement, dans le cas où n perçages sont prévus, on réalisera n-1 rainures.The small face 4 is generally planar and is provided with three holes 9, 10 and 1 1 intended to receive electrical conductors, not shown, which may be fixed inside the circuit breaker 1, and two grooves 12 and 13 parallel. The groove 12 is disposed between the holes 9 and 10 and the groove 13 is disposed between the holes 10 and 11. The small non-visible face is preferably identical to the small face 4. More generally, in the case where n holes are planned, n-1 grooves will be made.
Les rainures 7 et 8, 12 et 13 sont de profil transversal identique avec une ouverture, un fond plus large que l'ouverture. Au moins une extrémité longitudinale de chaque rainure 7, 8, 12, 13 est ouverte. Ici les deux extrémités longitudinale sont ouvertes. Différents types d'accessoires d'isolement sont prévus. Sur la figure 1 , on voit deux séparateurs de phases 14 et 15. Un séparateur de phases 14, 15 comprend une plaque plane 16 de forme générale rectangulaire et un rebord 17 disposé sur un des côtés de la plaque 16 et de forme correspondante à celle des rainures 7 et 8 de façon que ledit re- bord 17 puisse entrer et coulisser dans l'une des rainures 7 et 8. Un séparateur de phases 14, 15 est réalisé en matériau diélectrique, par exemple en matériau synthétique souple. A l'état monté, un séparateur de phases 14, 15 forme une barrière entre deux connexions de puissance du disjoncteur, par exemple entre deux accessoires de connexion dont différents types sont montrés en figure 1 et portent les référencesThe grooves 7 and 8, 12 and 13 are of identical transverse profile with an opening, a bottom wider than the opening. At least one longitudinal end of each groove 7, 8, 12, 13 is open. Here the two longitudinal ends are open. Different types of isolation accessories are provided. In FIG. 1, two phase separators 14 and 15 are seen. A phase separator 14, 15 comprises a flat plate 16 of generally rectangular shape and a flange 17 disposed on one of the sides of the plate 16 and of shape corresponding to that grooves 7 and 8 so that said flange 17 can enter and slide in one of the grooves 7 and 8. A phase separator 14, 15 is made of dielectric material, for example of flexible synthetic material. In the assembled state, a phase separator 14, 15 forms a barrier between two power connections of the circuit breaker, for example between two connection accessories of which different types are shown in FIG. 1 and bear the references
18, 19, 20, 21 et 22. Les accessoires de connexion peuvent recevoir des cosses ou des barres, non représentés.18, 19, 20, 21 and 22. The connection accessories can receive lugs or bars, not shown.
Sur la figure 1, on voit aussi un cache-bornes 23. Un cache- bornes 23 est monobloc et comprend une paroi avant 24, une paroi su- périeure 25 et deux parois latérales parallèles parmi lesquelles seule la paroi 26 est visible. Un cache-bornes 23 peut comprendre des séparateurs de phases parallèles aux parois latérales et non visibles sur la figure 1. Des rebords, non visibles sur la figure 1 , sont semblables aux rebords 17 des séparateurs de phases 14, 15 et disposés sur les faces internes des parois latérales pour venir se loger respectivement dans la rainure 7 de la grande face 3 et dans la rainure correspondante de l'autre grande face. Le cache-bornes 23 permettent d'augmenter l'isolement et de protéger les utilisateurs en recouvrant les cosses. Le cache- bornes 23 est de longueur (au sens de la longueur de la paroi 26) adap- tée au accessoires de connexion utilisés.In FIG. 1, a terminal cover 23 is also seen. A terminal cover 23 is in one piece and comprises a front wall 24, a top wall 25 and two parallel side walls of which only the wall 26 is visible. A terminal cover 23 may include phase separators parallel to the side walls and not visible in FIG. 1. Edges, not visible in FIG. 1, are similar to the edges 17 of phase separators 14, 15 and arranged on the faces internal side walls to be housed respectively in the groove 7 of the large face 3 and in the corresponding groove of the other large face. The terminal cover 23 makes it possible to increase the insulation and protect the users by covering the terminals. The terminal cover 23 is of length (in the sense of the length of the wall 26) adapted to the connection accessories used.
Un utilisateur peut ainsi disposer soit des séparateurs de phases 14, 15, soit un cache-bornes 23 à chaque petite face 4 d'extrémité du disjoncteur 1.A user can thus have either phase separators 14, 15, or a terminal cover 23 at each small face 4 of the end of the circuit breaker 1.
Sur les figures 2 et 3, un support 27 pour disjoncteur présente une forme générale de parallélépipède avec une face supérieure 28 et quatre faces latérales, deux grandes faces 29 et 30 et deux petites faces 31 et 32.In FIGS. 2 and 3, a support 27 for a circuit breaker has a general shape of a parallelepiped with an upper face 28 and four lateral faces, two large faces 29 and 30 and two small faces 31 and 32.
La face supérieure 28 est creuse et peut recevoir un disjoncteur, par exemple un disjoncteur 1. Les grandes faces 29 et 30 sont généralement planes et sont pourvues de deux rainures 7 et 8 parallèles disposées l'une à proximité de la petite face 31 et l'autre à proximité de l'autre petite face 32. La distance entre la rainure 7 de la grande face 29 et rainure 7 de la grande face 30 est égale à la distance entre les rainures correspondantes d'un disjoncteur comportant le même nombre ce connexions de sortie et donc de perçages dans les petites faces 31 et 32. Ainsi, un cache- bornes 23 peut venir se fixer sur les deux rainures 7 ou sur les deux rainures 8 d'un support 27. Le cache-bornes 23 peut aussi venir se fixer sur les rainures 37, 38 et 39 voir infra. Les petites faces 31 et 32 sont généralement planes et sont pourvues de quatre perçages 33, 34, 35 et 36 sur la figure 2 et de trois perçages 33, 34 et 35 sur la figure 3 destinés à recevoir des conducteurs électriques, non représentés, qui pourront être fixés à l'intérieur du support 27, et de trois rainures 37, 38 et 39 sur la figure 2 et de deux rainures 37 et 38 sur la figure 3 parallèles. La rainure 37 est disposée entre les perçages 33 et 34, la rainure 38 est disposée entre les perçages 34 et 35, et la rainure 39 est disposée entre les perçages 35 et 36. Plus généralement, dans le cas où n perçages sont prévus, on réalisera n- 1 rainures. Les différentes rainures sont de profil transversal identique avec une ouverture, un fond plus large que l'ouverture. Au moins une extrémité longitudinale de chaque rainure est ouverte. Ici les deux extrémités longitudinale sont ouvertes. Des séparateurs de phase 14, 15 qui peuvent être associés au disjoncteur 1 sont aptes à être associés au support 27.The upper face 28 is hollow and can receive a circuit breaker, for example a circuit breaker 1. The large faces 29 and 30 are generally planar and are provided with two parallel grooves 7 and 8 arranged one near the small face 31 and l other near the other small face 32. The distance between the groove 7 of the large face 29 and groove 7 of the large face 30 is equal to the distance between the corresponding grooves of a circuit breaker having the same number this connections outlet and therefore holes in the small faces 31 and 32. Thus, a terminal cover 23 can be fixed on the two grooves 7 or on the two grooves 8 of a support 27. The terminal cover 23 can also come attach to grooves 37, 38 and 39 see below. The small faces 31 and 32 are generally flat and are provided with four holes 33, 34, 35 and 36 in Figure 2 and three holes 33, 34 and 35 in Figure 3 intended to receive electrical conductors, not shown, which may be fixed inside the support 27, and three grooves 37, 38 and 39 in Figure 2 and two grooves 37 and 38 in Figure 3 parallel. The groove 37 is arranged between the holes 33 and 34, the groove 38 is arranged between the holes 34 and 35, and the groove 39 is arranged between the holes 35 and 36. More generally, in the case where n holes are provided, we will make n- 1 grooves. The different grooves are of identical transverse profile with an opening, a bottom wider than the opening. At least one longitudinal end of each groove is open. Here the two longitudinal ends are open. Phase separators 14, 15 which can be associated with the circuit breaker 1 are suitable for being associated with the support 27.
Sur la figure 3, on voit qu'une plaque d'isolement 40 peut être fixée au support 27. La plaque 40 est pourvue de deux trous 41 aptes à recevoir des ergots non visibles sur la figure 3 issus de la face inférieure du support 27. La plaque 40 permet d'augmenter l'isolation par rapport au mur ou à la paroi sur lequel est fixé le support. La plaque 40 peut aussi être fixée au disjoncteur 1 au cas où il n'est pas prévu de support 27 débrochable.In FIG. 3, it can be seen that an isolation plate 40 can be fixed to the support 27. The plate 40 is provided with two holes 41 capable of receiving pins not visible in FIG. 3 coming from the underside of the support 27 The plate 40 makes it possible to increase the insulation with respect to the wall or to the wall on which the support is fixed. The plate 40 can also be fixed to the circuit breaker 1 in case there is no provision for a withdrawable support 27.
Les accessoires de connexion 18, 19, 20, 21 et 22 peuvent servir à un disjoncteur seul ou à un support 27. Le support 27 est donc pourvu de parties femelles disposées dans les perçages 33, 34, 35 et éventuellement 36 identiques à celles du disjoncteur 1.The connection accessories 18, 19, 20, 21 and 22 can be used for a circuit breaker alone or for a support 27. The support 27 is therefore provided with female parts arranged in the holes 33, 34, 35 and possibly 36 identical to those of the circuit breaker 1.
Les mêmes accessoires d'isolement peuvent associés indifféremment avec un disjoncteur qui le nécessite ou avec un support de disjoncteur qui le nécessite. On peut former un ensemble comprenant un support de disjoncteur, un disjoncteur monté sur ledit support et un ou plusieurs accessoires d'isolement tel que séparateur de phases, cache-bornes, etc. Le disjoncteur et le support sont pourvus des mêmes moyens d'accrochage d'accessoires, par exemple de rainures identiques disposées de façon identique. II est bien entendu que la description qui précède n'a été donnée qu'à titre purement illustratif et non limitatif et que des variantes ou des modifications peuvent y être apportées dans le cadre de la présente invention. The same isolation accessories can be associated either with a circuit breaker which requires it or with a circuit breaker support which requires it. One can form an assembly comprising a circuit breaker support, a circuit breaker mounted on said support and one or more isolation accessories such as phase separator, terminal cover, etc. The circuit breaker and the support are provided with the same attachment means for accessories, for example identical grooves arranged identically. It is understood that the above description has been given purely by way of non-limiting illustration and that variants or modifications may be made thereto within the framework of the present invention.
