  • the conductors of the differential apparatus are fixed relative to the support in which they are housed but are movably mounted with the same support, relative to the housing of the differential apparatus, perpendicular to the rail, between a retracted position in wherein the support is away from the circuit breaker housing and the conductors not engaged in the terminals of the circuit breaker, and a non-retracted position in which the support is close to the housing of the circuit breaker and the conductors engaged in the output terminals of the circuit breaker.
  • the connection operation is completed by tightening the terminal screws. The mechanical and electrical coupling of the devices is therefore achieved in two successive translation movements.
  • the present invention proposes a connecting device realizing in another way the aforementioned electrical connection.
  • the subject of the present invention is an electrical connection device of the previously mentioned, this device being characterized in that it comprises, for each output terminal associated with a conductor, an intermediate accessory for electrically connecting said terminal to said conductor, the or each accessory being mounted movable within said support, between a first position in which said accessory, not electrically connected to the corresponding output terminal, is retracted to the inside of the support so as to allow the mechanical combination of the devices and a non-retracted position in which said accessory is electrically connected to the corresponding output terminal, the or each accessory comprising a first suitable means to cooperate with the corresponding output terminal to make the aforementioned connection and second means for electrically connecting said accessory to the primary conductors of in order to allow the aforementioned movement of said accessory.
  • this first means comprises means for realizing a automatic and permanent electrical connection of said accessory to the corresponding terminal of the first apparatus when said accessory passes from the first to the second position.
  • this first means comprises a conductor in the form of rigid range, having an end adapted to be tightened by a screw in a terminal of the type screwed and whose other end is mechanically and electrically connected to the conductor corresponding principal by the second aforementioned means so as to enable the displacement of the accessory between the two aforementioned positions.
  • the device comprises locking means provided partly on the first support and partly on the second support.
  • Figures 1 to 3 show a miniature circuit breaker D and a differential block B mounted on a mounting rail R.
  • the circuit breaker D is housed in a modular housing and comprises on either side of the rail R, input terminals 1 and output terminals 2.
  • the block differential B is housed in a housing comprising at its lower part conductors rigid 3 fixed relative to the housing of the device, said conductors 3, said drivers primary, extending parallel to the rail R and being housed in a support 4, said first, material with the housing of the differential block B.
  • the electrical connection device E comprises, for each conductor 3 intended to be connected to an output terminal 2, a connection accessory 9.
  • connection accessories 9 are fixed in a support 10, said second support, which is mounted in translation in the first aforesaid support 4 perpendicular to the longitudinal direction of the rail in the mounted position of the apparatus, and parallel to the attachment face of the apparatus to the rails.
  • Each of these accessories 9 comprises a first means 11 for the electrical connection of the accessory 9 to the corresponding terminal 2 and a second means 12 for the electrical connection of said accessory 9 to the corresponding conductor 3.
  • this first means 11 comprises a planar connection pad 13 electrically connected and fixed to a substantially U-shaped clip 14 constituting the second means 12 of the accessory 9.
  • This connection pad 13 is intended to be inserted into a terminal 2 of the screw type of the circuit-breaker D so as to be clamped against the corresponding connection pad 15 of the circuit-breaker D, as is known per se.
  • the aforementioned clamp 14 comprises two branches 14a, 14b (fig.4) between which the end of a conductor 3 of the differential block B is intended to be elastically clamped so as to form with this conductor 3 a sliding contact.
  • the two means 11, 12 are each constituted by a U-shaped clamp 16, 17 disposed one inside the other, as more particularly illustrated in FIG.
  • said first because constituting the first means, comprises a base 16a on which is fixed the base 17a of the clamp 17, said second because constituting the second means.
  • This clamp 16 also comprises two branches 16b, 16c whose ends 16d, 16e each have a domed portion a, b inwardly adapted to cooperate with two faces c, d (fig.10) belonging to the end of the beach connection circuit breaker 15 so that is performed, during the connection operation, an automatic and permanent electrical connection between the conductor 3 of the differential block B and that 15 of the corresponding terminal of the circuit breaker D.
  • the clamp 17, called second is fixed inside the first clamp 16 so that their bases 16a, 17a are contiguous and that the branches 17b, 17c of the second clamp extend parallel to the branches 16b, 16c of the first clamp 16.
  • this second clamp 17 is intended to engage on the corresponding conductor 3 of the differential block B so as to form with this conductor 3 a sliding contact.
  • the second support 10 comprises a screw cover 18 integrally formed with the second support 10 and comprising locking means 19 of said support 10 on the support 4.
  • These means comprise a tab 20 material coming with the cover 18 and adapted to engage in a recess 21 provided for this purpose in the support 4 of the differential device.
  • the two apparatuses D, B are brought together relative to one another until their facing faces 5, 6 are contiguous, and are mechanically associated by engagement of the coupling members 7, 8 of one of the devices with the coupling devices of the other device (fig.2). In this position, the accessories 9 are facing the output terminals 2 of the circuit breaker D (fig.5).
  • the electrical connection is then carried out by causing the second support 10 in translation inside the first support 4 (FIG. 3) towards the output terminals of the circuit breaker, which causes, for the first embodiment described (FIGS.
  • the second support 10 forms a push button operable to drive the accessory from the first to the second position.
  • the drive of the support 10 causes, on the one hand, the engagement of the first gripper 16 on the corresponding area 15, this commitment being definitive insofar as it is not no need to perform other operations to make the connection, and secondly, the engagement of the sliding contact in the form of clamp 17 on the corresponding primary conductor 3.
  • the cover 18 is brought opposite the orifices 2b of the terminal screws 2a (FIGS. 7, 9, 10, 12) and is locked in this position by insertion of the tongue 20 into the corresponding orifice 21 of the support 4 (FIG. fig.12).
  • the primary conductors are connected to the accessories by a sliding contact.
  • Other types of connection could have been envisaged, such as a braided connection or simply the use of the flexibility of the conductors, for small calibres.
  • the second support is mounted in translation relative to the first, whereas it could have been envisaged also that it is mounted in rotation in this first support, or both in rotation and in translation.
  • said accessory instead of being constituted by a double clamp, may be constituted by a clamp and a contact pad, said clamp being intended to cooperate with the corresponding primary conductor and the contact pad being adapted to cooperate with another clamp secured to the corresponding contact pad of the circuit breaker, by racking.
  • said accessory may be constituted by two clamps joined by a rigid conductor.
  • the first means could be constituted by a spring pressurizing the driver on the beach, either by spring pressure on the beach, or by pressing on the bottom of the terminal connection.
  • the invention is particularly applicable to electrical devices including modular, contiguous mounted on an installation rail, and intended to be electrically connected.
  • the invention thus makes it possible to achieve mechanical and electrical coupling of the apparatuses in two perpendicular directions according to two simple movements thanks to the presence of retractable accessories.
  • These accessories make it possible to make a connection without screwing, for example of the plug-in type, this type of connection making it possible to ensure that all the conductors are well electrically connected without the need for a complementary tightening operation, from which obtaining of a reliable and independent electrical connection of the user facilitating the association of the mechanical members.
  • the use of these accessories makes it possible to adapt to different variants of connection ends of the circuit breaker, depending on the type of circuit breaker, for the same terminal position configuration by simply changing the shape of the accessory. Similarly, by changing the shape of the accessory, it is possible to adapt to different connection configuration variants, the position of the terminals being different, from which it follows that this solution is particularly suitable for delayed differentiation.
  • the presence of the cover allows, in the case where the solution of the screw terminal is chosen, to avoid the loosening by mistake, or, in the case where the connection without screwing is chosen, the deterioration of the connection by accidental clamping screws.
  • a mobile screw cover (Fig.5 to 7) mounted articulated on the support 4, will provide additional isolation.
  • the locking system provided on the cache makes the differential block almost indémontable. There may also be a system allowing the second support to interfere with the mechanism of the circuit breaker or the differential block so as to lock the mechanism in the open position until the electrical connection is made.
