Definitions

  • the invention relates to an electromagnet arrangement for a switch, in particular for a contactor, according to the preamble of the first claim.
  • the electrical and magnetic dimensioning of electromagnetic contactors is usually designed so that in the armature holding state, a low electrical power is applied (for example, DE 195 26 038 A1). This is already indicated because devices of this type are in the hold state for the longer period of operation.
  • the energy consumption in the hold state has the disadvantage that the device heats up. Typically, one counts on power losses in the hold state of a few watts. For vacuum switching devices, significantly higher outputs must be provided.
  • contactors or switches are combined in large numbers in a control cabinet, there is a need to take active measures for heat dissipation.
  • a magnet arrangement with circuit arrangement for generating pulse sequences for regulating the power is shown, for example, in DE 39 10 810 A1 or in DE 195 26 038 A1.
  • bypass circuit is formed parallel to the main magnetic circuit, which is also closable via the magnet armature and the bypass circuit consists of the two pole legs and a second pol direabgewandt arranged on the magnetic yoke yoke, which is interrupted by a remanence air gap.
  • the magnet arrangement (the magnetic yoke, the second yoke arc and the permanent magnet) is magnetically dimensioned so that the holding power - attracted to the magnet armature state - is applied solely by the permanent magnet without energizing the exciter winding.
  • the permanent magnet generates a first magnetic flux (MK1) through the pole legs and the armature and a second flux (MK2) through the second through the remanence flux splits.
  • MK1 first magnetic flux
  • MK2 second flux
  • the absolute value of both power flows is given by the state of charge of the permanent magnet.
  • the ratio of the power flows is determined by the sizing of the bypass circuit (including remanent air gap) and the distance of the armature.
  • the first magnetic flux (MK1) ensures that the magnet armature is held firmly on the pole faces. This armature holding force acts on the spring force contrary, which opens the magnet assembly in the absence or reduced magnetic force. In this case, the armature moves against stops, not shown.
  • the excess of the armature holding force, generated by the magnetic flux through the armature against the spring force is a measure of the susceptibility of the magnet assembly to external mechanical influences.
  • To open the magnet assembly should be sufficient minimum flooding (smallest current through the excitation coils depending on the number of turns), whereby the first magnetic flux is weakened so far that the spring force is sufficient to lift the armature. With the said small excitation current, a magnetic flux is generated, which is opposite to the magnetic flux through the armature and the virtually lossless urges the first magnetic flux in the bypass circuit substantially.
  • the magnetic yoke is U-shaped and consists of two L-shaped halves with a longer pole leg and a shorter transverse leg, wherein each pole leg faces the contact surfaces of the magnet armature.
  • the permanent magnet is clamped in the middle between the transverse legs, whereby no welding is made.
  • the second zygomatic arch is arranged parallel to the transverse legs.
  • the remanence air gap whose width is on the order of 0.3 mm, may be air-filled or filled with a non-magnetic material.
  • the excitation winding of the magnet arrangement is connected to an energy store whose energy content is sufficient to release the magnet armature from the holding state.
  • the energy store may be a storage capacitor or an inductor.
  • the circuit arrangement is associated with a monitoring unit for controlling the voltage state of the energy store, so that the arrangement can be switched to another source of energy.
  • the advantage of the invention is that a circuit arrangement (preferably with pulse width modulation) for driving the exciter winding and for supplying the electrical energy for the excitation winding can be operated practically in 'stand-by mode'.
  • the EMC measures can be reduced because in the hold state, only the electrical energy for the idle power of the circuit must be provided. In comparable magnet arrangements is clocked in the hold state, whereby interference fields are unavoidable. The breaking capacity is minimal.
  • the holding power is low and corresponds to the standby power of the control electronics.
  • the design of the electronics is only determined by self-consumption.
  • the magnetic circuit is energetically designed only for the situation 'magnet armature closing'.
  • the turn-off energy should be saved in the phase of the tightening process, for example by charging a capacitor during the tightening process.
  • the permanent magnet consists - as usual in comparable arrangements - of magnetically hard material, such as AlNico, which also seeerd connections are possible.
  • the advantage of the magnet arrangement is in particular that a small space requirement for the excitation coil is necessary, whereby a compact structure can be achieved.
  • the invention can also be used wherever the movement of the armature can be implemented in the form of a linear drive.
  • the magnetic yoke 10 has a U-shape and consists of two - with respect to the vertical axis of symmetry SA - symmetrical halves (in L-shape) with longer pole legs 11 and short transverse legs 12.
  • the transverse legs are arranged against each other. Between the transverse legs, a permanent magnet 20 is supported.
  • the ends of the transverse legs are formed with lugs 19, between which the permanent magnet is clamped during assembly.
  • comparable magnetic structures in which elaborate laser welding connections are made this is an elegantly simple structure. 3 shows the assembly drawing, from which it can be seen that the magnet arrangement consists of laminated cores and are riveted on cover plates 80, resulting in the mechanical cohesion.
  • the magnet armature 60 consists of a plate-shaped body with laterally appended extensions 61. On the armature, which should preferably be linearly movable, a restoring force by at least one (not shown) spring (36) generated.
  • the armature has an air gap or hub 18. An operative connection of the armature with a contactor of the switch or contactor is present, but not shown.
  • the magnetic yoke is formed in the usual form as a laminated core. Laterally, the transverse legs 12 opposite, mounting legs 41 are each arranged with a bore to which the magnet assembly can be mounted in a housing.
  • the first magnetic flux circuit MK1 is associated with a magnetic bypass circuit MK2, this is the pole yoke (11,12) available pol direabgewandt.
  • the bypass circuit is formed by two, parallel to the short transverse legs 12 second Jochbogenschenkel 24 (parallel leg). Transverse leg and Jochbogenschenkel are offset from each other by a groove, but otherwise they are a physical part of the magnetic yoke.
  • the pole legs 11 are each comprised of bobbins with exciter windings 30, 32.
  • the magnetic flux that can be generated by the exciter windings 30, 32 overlaps in the air gap with the magnetic flux of the permanent magnet 20. During the tightening process, the two magnetic fluxes subtract in the bypass circuit.
  • the Jochbogenschenkel 24 each have a smaller cross section compared to the first transverse legs 12 and the armature
  • the Jochbogenschenkel are separated by a Remanenz Kunststoffspalt 25.
  • the width of the remanence air gap is approx. 0.3 mm.
  • the permanent magnet Due to its magnetic energy, the permanent magnet generates a magnetic flux which is divided into the two magnetic flux circuits MK1 and MK2.
  • the design of the magnet arrangement, in particular the strength of the permanent magnet is chosen so that in the holding state (magnet attracted, without applying the electrical excitation through the coils 30,32) of the armature is held securely on the yoke for all operating conditions.
  • This magnetic dimensioning ensures that in the holding position no magnetic energy must be supplied by the excitation coils; the holding force for the armature is applied solely by the permanent magnet.
  • the electrical power of an associated electronic circuit can be minimized, since essentially only the provision of the tripping energy has to be ensured.
  • the low tripping energy can, for example, be provided sufficiently via a suitably dimensioned storage capacitor or an inductance whose energy content can also be monitored by the electronic circuit.
  • the drive of the magnet assembly (closing the armature, drive excitation) is generated by a powerful coil current (for example, 100 msec with a power of 100 watts), which generates a magnetic flux opposite to that of the permanent magnet in the pole legs and also the spring force on the armature overcomes.
  • a powerful coil current for example, 100 msec with a power of 100 watts
  • the magnetic bypass circuit MK2 contains only low magnetic energy.
  • the exciting current can be switched off, since - as shown - the holding force is done statically.
