- the downstream connection 34a and upstream connection 34b of the housing 30 are arranged to each receive a removable power terminal block 40 so as to allow the electrical connection of the connection strips 39a, 39b of the housing 30 with external conductors.
- a power terminal block 40 shown in FIGS. Figures 5 and 6 , obviously has as many power terminals as poles of the switch device on which it must be mounted.

- the width of a terminal block 40 is substantially equal to that of the housing 30.
- each connection strip 39a, 39b is inserted into a corresponding opening 44 when one of the horizontal faces 41,49 of a connection terminal block 40 is pressed against a connection pad 34a, 34b of the box 30.
- each terminal of a power terminal block 40 comprises a clamping screw 42 cooperating with a clamping cage 43 located in the corresponding opening 44 of the terminal.
- the screw 42 is tightened, the cage 43 is deformed so that it comes to grip the conductors present in the opening 44.
- This clamping makes it possible to make an effective electrical connection of the connection strip with any other conductor previously inserted into the opening 44, and further allows to fix the connection terminal 40 against the housing 30 of the switch device.
- At least one of the horizontal faces 41,49 of the power terminal block 40 has holding members 45.
- retainers 45 are designed to cooperate with means complementary downstream 35a, respectively upstream 35b, arranged at the downstream connection 34a, respectively upstream 34b, of the housing 30.
- these holding members are constituted by one or more pins 45 present on a front portion of the horizontal face 41 of the power terminal block 40.
- these pins are introduced into as many corresponding cavities 35a, 35b present on a front portion of the connection pads 34a, 34b of the housing 30.
- the cavities 35a, 35b are of complementary shape to the lugs 45.
- the removable power terminal block 40 is advantageously symmetrical with respect to a median vertical plane so that a same terminal block 40 can indifferently be mounted downstream but also upstream of a housing 30 after reversal.
- the horizontal face 41 has two lugs 45 disposed on either side of the median vertical plane.
- the protection and control assembly described in the invention comprises a first electrical switch device as described above and a second electrical switch device.
- the second electrical apparatus comprises a housing 10 of generally parallelepiped shape having an upstream horizontal face 13b, 14b opposite a downstream horizontal face 13a, 14a.
- the width of the housing 10 of the second device is substantially equal to that of the housing 30 of the first device.
- the downstream horizontal face 13a, 14a consists of at least one horizontal zone.
- the upstream horizontal face 13b, 14b consists of at least one horizontal upstream bearing surface 13b and an upstream horizontal connection zone 14b offset from which output the upstream connection strips 19b.
- the downstream support pads 13a and upstream 13b are closer to the rear face of the housing 10 and further apart than the downstream connection pads 14a and 14b upstream.
- Cavities 15a, 15b, similar to the cavities 35a, 35b, are arranged on a front portion of the downstream 14a and upstream connection pads 14b of the housing 10, to accommodate the terminal pins for holding power.
- the housings 30 and 10 are juxtaposed one on the other in a direction parallel to the vertical axis X of the terminal strips so that the downstream support pad 33a of the housing 30 of the first electrical appliance is pressed against the upstream bearing surface 13b of the housing 10 of the second electrical appliance.
- the vertical dimensions of the protection and control assembly is therefore minimal since the housings of the two electrical appliances are directly juxtaposed without space between them.
- a removable downstream power terminal block 50 is mounted against the downstream connection zone 14a of the second housing 10.
- the tightening of the screws of this downstream terminal block 50 makes it possible to fix it against the housing 10 and to connect electrically downstream connection strips 19a to downstream outer conductors.
- a removable upstream power terminal block 60 is mounted against the upstream connection zone 34b of the first housing 30. The tightening of the screws of the upstream terminal block 60 makes it possible to fix it against the housing 30 and electrically connecting the upstream connection strips 39b to upstream outer conductors.
- the 50,60 power terminal blocks are identical to the power terminal 40 described above.
- the power terminal blocks 40, 50, 60 comprise holding lugs 45, 55, 65 cooperating with the complementary shaped cavities 35 a, 35 b, 15 a, 15 b of the boxes 30, 10 so as to facilitate the guiding, the positioning and the maintenance of the terminal blocks against the housings of electrical appliances.
- the gap existing between the support pad and the connection pad of the same horizontal face of a casing is designed so that when the two casings 30 and 10 are juxtaposed one on the other by their range of support, the space created between the downstream connection range 34a of the first housing 30 and the upstream connection area 14b of the second housing 10 allows to house a common power terminal block 40 removable.
- this common terminal block 40 is identical to the power terminal blocks upstream 60 and downstream 50, thus reducing the number of different parts necessary for mounting the described assembly since all the power terminals 40,50,60 are interchangeable with each other.
- the holding pins 45 of the common power terminal block 40 are associated with the cavities 35a, 35b of the housing 30.
- the common terminal block 40 could also be turned so that the holding pins 45 can be associated with the cavities of the second housing 10 (via a hold 70).
- Such a protection and control assembly consisting of two electrical devices therefore comprises only three power terminals 40,50,60 whereas usually two terminal blocks per device are required.
- the common power terminal block 40 performs several functions. Once the downstream bars 39a of the first device and the upstream strips 19b of the second device are inserted into the openings 44 of the common terminal block 40, a clamping action on the three clamping screws 42 allows two electrical connection of the two downstream bars 39a the first apparatus with corresponding upstream strips 19b of the second apparatus. In addition, this clamping action allows mechanical attachment of the two devices together. With this mechanical attachment, a single device, for example the first device 30, needs to be fixed by its rear face 32 on a support, such as a frame, a profile or a plate, the other device being maintained only by the common terminal block 40. It is then very easy to assemble the two devices together before fixing the assembly on the support. In addition, only one support is necessary to mount the assembly.
- the downstream strips 39a of the first device are slightly offset from the upstream strips 19b of the second device in a direction perpendicular to the vertical axis X of the bars.
- the downstream bars 39a of the housing 30 are offset rearwardly with respect to the upstream strips 19b of the housing 10. It would obviously be possible to envisage a shift towards the front, or even a lateral shift of the downstream bars relative to to the upstream bars.
- This offset must be sufficient not to interfere with the juxtaposition of the housings 30 and 10 during assembly of the assembly. However, this offset must nevertheless make it possible, once the assembled assembly and once the screws 42 of the common terminal block 40 are tight, that the downstream strips 39a of the first device overlap and are flush with the upstream strips 19b of the second device to form a zone electrical contact 49, as indicated in figure 5 .
- the length of the downstream and upstream connection strips is designed so that the overlap of the downstream bars 39a of the first apparatus and upstream strips 19b of the second apparatus provide a contact zone 49 sufficient for reliable mechanical maintenance and a satisfactory electrical connection. of both devices, in accordance with the electrical current likely to flow in the protection and control unit.
- the invention also makes it possible to provide a protection and control assembly comprising more than two electrical appliances. It is indeed easy to add a third electrical device to the described assembly while maintaining the same power terminals 40,50,60. If the housing of the third electrical appliance is placed downstream of the housing 10, as in the case of a thermal relay for example, it will be juxtaposed with the downstream bearing surface 13a of the housing 10 and the power terminal block 50 will serve as a common terminal block between the housings of the second and third apparatus. The upstream connection strips of the third device will then be designed to be slightly offset from the downstream strips of the second device.
- a third electrical device was placed upstream of the housing 30, it would be juxtaposed to the upstream bearing pad 33b and the power terminal block 60 would serve as a common terminal block between the housings of the first and third apparatus.
- the downstream connection strips of the third device should then be slightly offset from the upstream strips of the first device.
- some switchgear devices may comprise by construction a recess on a front portion of the connection range of their downstream and upstream horizontal faces, before the outputs of the terminal strips.
- the downstream 14a and upstream 14b connection pads of the second electrical apparatus comprise such a recess located just in front of the connection strips 19a, 19b.
- this recess can then be closed by the introduction of a shim 70, respectively 70 ', between the housing 10 and the power terminal block 40, respectively 50, so as to improve the maintenance of the power terminal blocks 40,50 against the housing 10.
- These wedges 70,70 ' are identical and symmetrical with respect to a median vertical plane.
- They have a parallelepipedal shape with a height substantially equal to the recess and a width substantially equal to the width of the housings of the electrical appliances. They thus make it possible to fill said recesses without increasing the general dimensions of the assembly described in the invention. They comprise a first horizontal face having holding lugs that can cooperate with the cavities 15a, 15b of the housing 10 and a second opposite horizontal face having cavities that can cooperate with the holding pins of the adjacent power terminal blocks.

La présente invention se rapporte à un ensemble de protection et de commande électromagnétique permettant la fixation mécanique et le raccordement électrique de plusieurs appareils électriques interrupteurs, en particulier pour la réalisation d'un ensemble comportant une association d'au moins deux appareils électriques tel qu'un contacteur, un disjoncteur, un sectionneur, un sectionneur porte-fusibles, un relais thermique ou tout autre appareil électrique analogue, utilisables en distribution ou commande électrique basse tension. L'invention concerne également un appareil électrique susceptible d'entrer dans la composition d'un tel ensemble de protection et de commande.The present invention relates to a set of protection and electromagnetic control for the mechanical fixing and the electrical connection of several electrical switch devices, in particular for the realization of an assembly comprising a combination of at least two electrical devices such as a contactor, a circuit breaker, a disconnector, a fuse disconnector, a thermal relay or any other similar electrical device, usable in distribution or low voltage electrical control. The invention also relates to an electrical apparatus capable of forming part of the composition of such a protection and control assembly.
Dans un ensemble destiné à la protection et à la commande d'un moteur électrique (généralement appelé un "ensemble de départ moteur") ou de toute autre charge électrique multipolaire en basse tension, on associe fréquemment en cascade un premier appareil électrique de protection, tel qu'un disjoncteur ou un sectionneur porte-fusibles avec un second appareil électrique de commande, tel qu'un contacteur, ces deux appareils étant interconnectés entre eux. On peut aussi ajouter à cette association d'autres appareils comme un relais thermique de protection.In an assembly intended for the protection and control of an electric motor (generally called a "motor starter unit") or of any other low voltage multipolar electric charge, a first electrical protection device is frequently associated in cascade, such as a circuit breaker or a fuse disconnector with a second electrical control device, such as a contactor, these two devices being interconnected with each other. It is also possible to add to this association other devices such as a protective thermal relay.
Il est souhaitable de pouvoir réaliser un tel ensemble de départ moteur le plus simplement et le plus rapidement possible tout en conservant une connexion fiable. Pour des raisons évidentes de coût, de gain de temps lors du montage/câblage et de gain de place dans les coffrets ou armoires électriques accueillant l'ensemble, on cherche notamment à supprimer d'éventuels conducteurs (fils, barres) de raccordement entre les appareils, àminimiser le nombre de raccordements électriques àeffectuer et àminimiser l'encombrement total des différents appareils associés.It is desirable to be able to make such a starting motor assembly as simply and as quickly as possible while maintaining a reliable connection. For obvious reasons of cost, time saving during assembly / wiring and saving space in enclosures or electrical cabinets hosting the whole, it seeks in particular to remove any conductors (wires, bars) connection between the devices, to minimize the number of electrical connections to be made and to minimize the total size of the various associated devices.

L'invention a donc pour but de faciliter la mise en place d'une association mécanique et électrique de plusieurs appareils électriques en cascade dans le but de réaliser de manière simple, fiable et économique un ensemble de protection et de commande.The invention therefore aims to facilitate the establishment of a mechanical and electrical combination of several electrical devices in cascade in order to achieve a simple, reliable and economical protection and control assembly.
Pour cela, l'invention décrit un ensemble de protection et de commande comprenant un premier appareil électrique interrupteur et un second appareil électrique interrupteur possédant chacun un boîtier muni de barrettes conductrices de connexion amont, respectivement aval, qui viennent en saillie selon un axe vertical sur une plage de raccordement horizontale amont, respectivement aval, de chaque boîtier et qui sont susceptibles d'être insérées dans des ouvertures de borniers de puissance amovibles, les appareils électriques étant juxtaposés l'un sur l'autre suivant une direction parallèle à l'axe vertical. L'ensemble de protection et de commande comprend un bornier amovible commun permettant de raccorder électriquement par serrage les barrettes de connexion aval du premier appareil électrique avec les barrettes de connexion amont correspondantes du second appareil électrique, assurant en outre une fixation mécanique des deux appareils électriques.For this purpose, the invention describes a protection and control assembly comprising a first electrical switching device and a second electrical switch device each having a housing provided with upstream and downstream connecting conductor strips, respectively, which project from a vertical axis on a vertical axis. an upstream and downstream horizontal connection range of each housing and which can be inserted into removable power terminal block openings, the electrical appliances being juxtaposed one over the other in a direction parallel to the axis vertical. The protection and control assembly comprises a common removable terminal block for electrically clamping the downstream connection strips of the first electrical appliance with the corresponding upstream connection strips of the second electrical appliance, further ensuring mechanical attachment of the two electrical appliances. .
Selon une caractéristique, le boîtier du premier appareil électrique comporte une plage d'appui horizontale aval qui est plaquée contre une plage d'appui horizontale amont du boîtier du second appareil électrique.According to one characteristic, the housing of the first electrical appliance comprises a downstream horizontal support pad which is pressed against an upstream horizontal support pad of the housing of the second electrical appliance.
Selon une autre caractéristique, les barrettes aval du premier appareil électrique sont décalées par rapport aux barrettes amont du second appareil électrique suivant une direction perpendiculaire à l'axe vertical des barrettes. Les borniers amovibles sont identiques et interchangeables et possèdent des organes de maintien aptes à coopérer avec des moyens complémentaires disposés dans les boîtiers des appareils électriques.According to another characteristic, the downstream strips of the first electrical appliance are offset with respect to the upstream bars of the second electrical appliance in a direction perpendicular to the vertical axis of the bars. The removable terminal blocks are identical and interchangeable and have holding members adapted to cooperate with complementary means arranged in the housings of electrical appliances.
Ainsi, grâce à l'invention, on optimise l'encombrement global pris par l'ensemble constitué des deux appareils électriques puisque ceux-ci sont juxtaposés l'un sur l'autre, et on simplifie le montage et le câblage de l'ensemble puisqu'il n'existe qu'un seul bornier commun entre les boîtiers des deux appareils permettant de faire àla fois le raccordement électrique et la fixation mécanique des deux appareils.Thus, thanks to the invention, optimizes the overall size taken by the assembly consisting of the two electrical devices since they are juxtaposed one on the other, and it simplifies the assembly and wiring of all since there is only one common terminal block between the housings of the two devices making it possible to make both the electrical connection and the mechanical fixing of the two devices.

Préférentiellement, la face horizontale aval 33a,34a et la face horizontale amont 33b,34b du boîtier 30 sont formées par plusieurs plans horizontaux décalés l'un par rapport à l'autre. Ainsi, la face horizontale aval 33a,34a est constituée d'au moins une plage horizontale d'appui aval 33a ainsi que d'une plage horizontale de raccordement aval 34a décalée de laquelle sortent les barrettes conductrices aval 39a. De même, la face horizontale amont 33b,34b est constituée d'au moins une plage horizontale d'appui amont 33b ainsi que d'une plage horizontale de raccordement amont 34b décalée de laquelle sortent les barrettes conductrices amont 39b. Les plages d'appui aval 33a et amont 33b sont plus proches de la face arrière 32 du boîtier 30 et sont plus écartées l'une de l'autre que les plages de raccordement aval 34a et amont 34b.Preferably, the downstream
Les plages de raccordement aval 34a et amont 34b du boîtier 30 sont agencées pour recevoir chacune un bornier de puissance amovible 40 de façon à permettre le raccordement électrique des barrettes de connexion 39a,39b du boîtier 30 avec des conducteurs extérieurs. Un tel bornier de puissance 40, représenté aux
Ainsi, chaque barrette de connexion 39a,39b se trouve insérée dans une ouverture correspondante 44 lorsqu'une des faces horizontales 41,49 d'un bornier de connexion 40 est plaquée contre une plage de raccordement 34a,34b du boîtier 30. De façon classique, chaque borne d'un bornier de puissance 40 comprend une vis de serrage 42 coopérant avec une cage de serrage 43 située dans l'ouverture 44 correspondante de la borne. Lorsqu'on serre la vis 42, on déforme la cage 43 de façon à ce que celle-ci vienne enserrer les conducteurs présents dans l'ouverture 44. Ce serrage permet d'effectuer un raccordement électrique efficace de la barrette de connexion avec tout autre conducteur préalablement inséré dans l'ouverture 44, et permet en plus de fixer le bornier de connexion 40 contre le boîtier 30 de l'appareil interrupteur.Thus, each
De plus, pour faciliter le guidage, le positionnement et le maintien des borniers de puissance 40 sur le boîtier 30 de l'appareil électrique, au moins une des faces horizontales 41,49 du bornier de puissance 40 présente des organes de maintien 45. Ces organes de maintien 45 sont conçus pour pouvoir coopérer avec des moyens complémentaires aval 35a, respectivement amont 35b, agencés au niveau des plages de raccordement aval 34a, respectivement amont 34b, du boîtier 30.In addition, to facilitate the guiding, positioning and maintenance of the
Selon un mode de réalisation préféré, ces organes de maintien sont constitués par un ou plusieurs ergots 45 présents sur une partie avant de la face horizontale 41 du bornier de puissance 40. Lorsque le bornier de puissance 40 est monté contre le boîtier 30, ces ergots sont introduits dans autant de cavités correspondantes 35a,35b présentes sur une partie avant des plages de raccordement 34a,34b du boîtier 30. Préférentiellement, les cavités 35a,35b sont de forme complémentaire aux ergots 45. Une fois les barrettes de connexion 39 engagées dans les ouvertures 44 et avant le serrage des vis 42, la mise en place définitive du bornier 40 se fait alors par glissement vers l'arrière de la face horizontale 41 le long de la plage de raccordement 34a,34b du boîtier 30 jusqu'en butée contre la plage d'appui 33a,33b. Durant cette opération, les ergots 45 sont engagés dans les cavités correspondantes 35a,35b contribuant au maintien et au positionnement du bornier contre le boîtier.According to a preferred embodiment, these holding members are constituted by one or
Le bornier de puissance amovible 40 est avantageusement symétrique par rapport à un plan vertical médian de façon à ce qu'un même bornier 40 puisse indifféremment être monté en aval mais aussi en amont d'un boîtier 30 après retournement. Dans les exemples présentés, la face horizontale 41 comporte deux ergots 45 disposés de part et d'autre du plan vertical médian.The removable

Une fois l'ensemble de protection et de commande assemblé, les boîtiers 30 et 10 sont juxtaposés l'un sur l'autre selon une direction parallèle à l'axe vertical X des barrettes de connexion de telle sorte que la plage d'appui aval 33a du boîtier 30 du premier appareil électrique est plaquée contre la plage d'appui amont 13b du boîtier 10 du second appareil électrique. L'encombrement vertical de l'ensemble de protection et de commande est donc minimum puisque les boîtiers des deux appareils électriques sont directement juxtaposés sans espace entre eux.Once the protection and control assembly assembled, the
En aval de l'ensemble, un bornier de puissance aval 50 amovible est monté contre la plage de raccordement aval 14a du second boîtier 10. Le serrage des vis de ce bornier aval 50 permet de fixer celui-ci contre le boîtier 10 et de raccorder électriquement les barrettes de connexion aval 19a àdes conducteurs extérieurs aval. De même, en amont de l'ensemble, un bornier de puissance amont 60 amovible est monté contre la plage de raccordement amont 34b du premier boîtier 30. Le serrage des vis du bornier amont 60 permet de fixer celui-ci contre le boîtier 30 et de raccorder électriquement les barrettes de connexion amont 39b à des conducteurs extérieurs amont. Les borniers de puissance 50,60 sont identiques au bornier de puissance 40 décrit précédemment. Les borniers de puissance 40,50,60 comprennent des ergots de maintien 45,55,65 coopérant avec les cavités de forme complémentaire 35a,35b,15a,15b des boîtiers 30,10 de façon àfaciliter le guidage, le positionnement et le maintien des borniers contre les boîtiers des appareils électriques.Downstream of the assembly, a removable downstream
Le décalage existant entre la plage d'appui et la plage de raccordement d'une même face horizontale d'un boîtier est conçu pour que, lorsque les deux boîtiers 30 et 10 sont juxtaposés l'un sur l'autre par leur plage d'appui, l'espace créé entre la plage de raccordement aval 34a du premier boîtier 30 et la plage de raccordement amont 14b du second boîtier 10 permette de loger un bornier de puissance commun 40 amovible. Avantageusement, ce bornier commun 40 est identique aux borniers de puissance amont 60 et aval 50, réduisant ainsi le nombre de pièces différentes nécessaires au montage de l'ensemble décrit puisque tous les borniers de puissance 40,50,60 sont interchangeables entre eux. Les ergots de maintien 45 du bornier de puissance commun 40 sont associés aux cavités 35a,35b du boîtier 30. Le bornier commun 40 pourrait aussi être retourné pour que les ergots de maintien 45 puissent s'associer aux cavités du second boîtier 10 (via une cale 70).The gap existing between the support pad and the connection pad of the same horizontal face of a casing is designed so that when the two
Ainsi, un tel ensemble de protection et de commande constitué de deux appareils électriques ne comporte donc que trois borniers de puissance 40,50,60 alors qu'habituellement, deux borniers par appareil sont nécessaires.Thus, such a protection and control assembly consisting of two electrical devices therefore comprises only three
Le bornier de puissance commun 40 remplit plusieurs fonctions. Une fois que les barrettes aval 39a du premier appareil et les barrettes amont 19b du second appareil sont insérées dans les ouvertures 44 du bornier commun 40, une action de serrage sur les trois vis de serrage 42 permet un raccordement électrique deux àdeux des barrettes aval 39a du premier appareil avec les barrettes amont correspondantes 19b du second appareil. De plus, cette action de serrage permet une fixation mécanique des deux appareils entre eux. Grâce à cette fixation mécanique, un seul appareil, par exemple le premier appareil 30, a besoin d'être fixé par sa face arrière 32 sur un support, tel qu'un châssis, un profilé ou une platine, l'autre appareil étant maintenu uniquement par le bornier commun 40. On peut alors très facilement assembler les deux appareils entre eux avant la fixation de l'ensemble sur le support. De plus, un seul support est alors nécessaire au montage de l'ensemble.The common
Pour assurer efficacement le raccordement électrique et la fixation mécanique entre les deux appareils, les barrettes aval 39a du premier appareil sont légèrement décalées par rapport aux barrettes amont 19b du second appareil suivant une direction perpendiculaire à l'axe vertical X des barrettes. Dans les exemples schématisés, les barrettes aval 39a du boîtier 30 sont décalées vers l'arrière par rapport aux barrettes amont 19b du boîtier 10. On aurait évidemment pu envisager un décalage vers l'avant, ou même un décalage latéral des barrettes aval par rapport aux barrettes amont.To effectively ensure the electrical connection and the mechanical fixing between the two devices, the
Ce décalage doit être suffisant pour ne pas gêner la juxtaposition des boîtiers 30 et 10 lors du montage de l'ensemble. Mais ce décalage doit néanmoins permettre, une fois l'ensemble monté et une fois les vis 42 du bornier commun 40 serrées, que les barrettes aval 39a du premier appareil se chevauchent et soient affleurantes avec les barrettes amont 19b du second appareil pour former une zone de contact électrique 49, comme indiqué en
L'invention permet aussi de réaliser un ensemble de protection et de commande comportant plus que deux appareils électriques. Il est en effet facile de rajouter un troisième appareil électrique à l'ensemble décrit en conservant les mêmes borniers de puissance 40,50,60. Si le boîtier du troisième appareil électrique est placé en aval du boîtier 10, comme dans le cas d'un relais thermique par exemple, il sera juxtaposé àla plage d'appui aval 13a du boîtier 10 et le bornier de puissance 50 servira de bornier commun entre les boîtiers du deuxième et troisième appareil. Les barrettes de connexion amont du troisième appareil seront alors conçues pour être légèrement décalées par rapport aux barrettes aval du second appareil. Inversement, si un troisième appareil électrique était mis en amont du boîtier 30, il serait juxtaposé à la plage d'appui amont 33b et le bornier de puissance 60 servirait de bornier commun entre les boîtiers du premier et troisième appareil. Les barrettes de connexion aval du troisième appareil devraient alors être légèrement décalées par rapport aux barrettes amont du premier appareil.The invention also makes it possible to provide a protection and control assembly comprising more than two electrical appliances. It is indeed easy to add a third electrical device to the described assembly while maintaining the
Par ailleurs, certains appareils interrupteurs peuvent comporter par construction un décrochement sur une partie avant de la plage de raccordement de leurs faces horizontales aval et amont, àl'avant des sorties des barrettes de connexion. Ainsi, selon le mode de réalisation de l'invention des
