Definitions

  • the invention relates to an electrical breaking device comprising at least one electrical pole comprising a fixed contact member of conductive material, a movable contact member capable of passing from a closed position in which it is in contact with the body fixed contact, in an open position where the two contact members are separated.
  • the electrical breaking device comprises an arc extinction chamber comprising two parallel lateral flanges placed on either side of a median longitudinal plane, a rear wall, a lower arc of conductive material, electrically connected to the contact member fixed and extending near the rear wall. Said lower horn is bordered by a periphery of gasogenic material.
  • the arc extinction chamber comprises a stack of separators extending from one lateral flange to the other, substantially perpendicular to the longitudinal median plane, at least two of the separators comprising a notch extending along the longitudinal median plane.
  • a high-voltage low-voltage cut-off device When a high-voltage low-voltage cut-off device is used to cut low-intensity electrical currents at relatively high voltages, of the order of 600 volts effective in single-phase, or 1000 volts effective three-phase, the breaking chambers support important thermal and mechanical stresses. Said low intensity electric currents are of the order of 5 to 15 times the rated current.
  • the dimensions of the breaking chambers must respect certain design rules in order to provide an energy exchange volume necessary for the extinction of the arc.
  • the depth of the arc extinguishing chamber ie its longitudinal dimension between the inlet of the chamber and the exhaust wall of the gases, must be sufficient to provide the volume of energy exchange necessary for the extinction of the arc.
  • the document FR2604026 discloses a cut-off device whose lower bow horn widens from its anterior part close to the contacts to its posterior part close to the bottom of the extinguishing chamber.
  • the enlarged posterior portion constitutes a collector portion whose area is smaller than the section of an arc root for an arc that would be formed with a constant electrical current density corresponding to the nominal breaking current.
  • the goal here is to bring the arc to the collector and stabilize it.
  • the stabilized arc then develops essentially in the middle part of the chamber.
  • Such a configuration is effective only if the longitudinal dimension of the chamber, that is to say the depth between the fixed contact zone and the rear wall of the chamber used for the extraction of gases is important.
  • the width of the chamber can be reduced because it is not used for the extinction of the arc.
  • the solution described in the patent FR2803687 comprises a device whose lower arcuate horn is biased to the same degree on the two most lateral parts of the posterior end zone. This makes it possible to affirm that the two lateral parts of the chamber contributed in proportions very close to the absorption of the energy released by the arc, and therefore to the extinction thereof. This is due to the particular shape of the bow horn which promotes rapid lateral oscillation of the arc from one side to the other of the posterior end zone of the bow horn. This arrangement makes it possible to make full use of the available width of the chamber, and thus to obtain the cut arc high voltage, above 600 volts effective for the phase, with a shallow chamber. This type of solution finds a particularly powerful application in terms of volume reduction in terms of chamber depth.
  • the invention is preferably applied to a relatively wide pole, in particular a pole whose distance between the contact zone of the fixed contact member and the bottom wall of the chamber is less than the distance between the flanges. side of the room. It also applies to a pole whose bow horn less than one length, measured in the longitudinal median plane, which is less than the widest width of the posterior part of the arc horn, measured along a perpendicular axis in the median longitudinal plane.
  • the invention therefore aims to overcome the drawbacks of the state of the art, so as to provide a reduced arc extinction chamber allowing the extinction of the arc at the time of the cutting of low intensity currents under significant tensions.
  • the arc extinguishing chamber of the cut-off device comprises at least one regenerative separator placed parallel to the lower arc horn, said at least one separator comprising at least one metal surface covering at least half of the notches according to the longitudinal median plane.
  • the metal surface of said at least one regenerative separator is at least equal to a quarter of the area of the arc extinguishing chamber in the XY plane, said metal surface being substantially centered with respect to the bottom of the indentations of the separators.
  • the width and the length of the regenerative separator are respectively at least equal to 50% of the width and the length of said separators.
  • the regenerative separator comprises a notch extending along the longitudinal median plane, the length of said notch being less than the length of the notches of the other separators.
  • the length of the notch is less than or equal to 60% of the length of the notches.
  • the length of the indentation is between 20 and 50% of the length of the indentations.
  • said at least one separator has a thickness greater than that of the other separators.
