Es sei Bezug genommen auf die Fig. 1.It is referred to the Fig. 1 ,

Die dort gezeichnete Kontaktstelle eines Lasttrennschalters befindet sich in einem topfförmigen Gehäuse 10 aus isolierendem Kunststoff, wie er aus der DE 10 2005 009 207.1 bekannt geworden ist. Der Behälter 10 ist an seinem freien Ende mit einem Bodenabschnitt 11 verschlossen, in dem ein zylinderförmiger Kontaktabschnitt oder -hülse 12 festgelegt ist, der bzw. die eine Bohrung 13 aufweist, über die eine Anschlussleitung gemäß Pfeilrichtung P angeschlossen werden kann. Am inneren Ende der Kontakthülse 12 schließt sich ein feststehendes Hauptkontaktstück 14 an, welches tulpenförmig ausgebildet ist mit einer Bodenplatte 15 und daran anschließenden Kontaktfingern 16, die an ihren freien Enden eine Einziehung 17 nach innen aufweisen. In der Bohrung 13 ist ein Kontaktzapfen 18 fixiert, der in der Fig. 4 näher dargestellt ist.The there drawn contact point of a circuit breaker is located in a cup-shaped housing 10 made of insulating plastic, as it is known from DE 10 2005 009 207.1 has become known. The container 10 is closed at its free end with a bottom portion 11 in which a cylindrical contact portion or sleeve 12 is fixed, the or has a bore 13 through which a connecting line according to arrow P can be connected. At the inner end of the contact sleeve 12, a fixed main contact piece 14 connects, which is tulip-shaped with a bottom plate 15 and adjoining contact fingers 16, which have a confinement 17 inwardly at their free ends. In the bore 13, a contact pin 18 is fixed, in the Fig. 4 is shown in more detail.

Innerhalb des Behälters 10 geführt (in nicht näher dargestellter Weise) ist ein Kontaktträger 19 in Form einer Kontaktstange, an deren innerem Ende eine Dichtungsplatte befestigt ist, die an ihrem Außenumfang eine Dichtung 21 trägt, die gegen die Innenfläche des Behälters 10 anliegt und dort zur Abdichtung dient. An der Platte 20 ist ein Zylinder 22 befestigt, der an seiner Innenfläche ein düsenförmiges Kontaktstück 23 trägt, wobei die Düsenform die Innenkontur 24 bildet. Der Zylinder 22 besitzt an seinem dem Kontaktstück 23 entgegengesetzt liegenden Ende eine radial nach innen vorspringende Leiste 25, die die Kontaktstange 19 umfasst und dort damit fest verbunden ist. Der Innenraum 26 des Zylinders 22 ist im Bereich der Leiste 25 mit Durchgangsöffnungen 27 versehen, die in axialer Richtung den Innenraum 26 mit dem Raum 28 unterhalb der Platte 20 verbinden. Am Stirnende des Zylinders 22, auf der der Platte 20 entgegengesetzten Seite, ist ein Blaszylinder 29 aus isolierendem Kunststoff befestigt.Within the container 10 out (in a manner not shown) is a contact carrier 19 in the form of a contact rod, at the inner end of a sealing plate is fixed, which carries on its outer periphery a seal 21 which bears against the inner surface of the container 10 and serves for sealing there. On the plate 20, a cylinder 22 is fixed, which carries on its inner surface a nozzle-shaped contact piece 23, wherein the nozzle shape forms the inner contour 24. The cylinder 22 has at its end opposite the contact piece 23 a radially inwardly projecting bar 25, which comprises the contact rod 19 and is firmly connected therewith. The interior 26 of the cylinder 22 is provided in the region of the strip 25 with passage openings 27 which connect the interior space 26 with the space 28 below the plate 20 in the axial direction. At the front end of the cylinder 22, on the opposite side of the plate 20, a blowing cylinder 29 is attached from insulating plastic.

Es sei nun Bezug genommen auf die Fig. 4.It is now referred to the Fig. 4 ,

Die Fig. 4 zeigt den Kontaktzapfen 18. Dieser Kontaktzapfen 18 ist etwa zylindrisch geformt und besitzt einen Zapfenabschnitt 30, der in die Bohrung 13 kraftschlüssig eingesetzt ist. An den Abschnitt 30 schließt sich ein sechseckförmiger Plattenabschnitt 31 an, der sich gegen die Innenfläche 32 des Bodens 15 des Hauptkontaktstückes 14 anlegt und das Hauptkontaktstück 14 mit dem Kontaktzylinder 12 fest verbindet. Der Kontaktzapfen 18 besitzt einen Kontaktfingerabschnitt 32, der an seinem freien Ende radial einen erweiterten Abschnitt 34 aufweist, die dem Kontaktzapfen 18 eine mikrofonartige Struktur verleiht. Der Kontaktzapfen 32 besitzt einen axial verlaufenden Längsschlitz 33, wodurch zwei Kontaktzapfenfinger 35 und 36 gebildet sind. Der Außendurchmesser des Abschnittes 34 ist größer als der Innendurchmesser des Kontaktstückes 23, so dass dann, wenn eine Ausschaltung stattfindet, wenn also der Kontaktstückträger in Pfeilrichtung P1 gezogen wird, die Innenfläche des Kontaktstückes 23 auf die Außenfläche des Abschnittes 34 aufgleitet und damit die beiden Kontaktzapfenfinger 35 und 36 aufeinander zu drückt.The Fig. 4 shows the contact pin 18. This contact pin 18 is approximately cylindrically shaped and has a pin portion 30 which is non-positively inserted into the bore 13. The section 30 is followed by a hexagonal plate portion 31, which abuts against the inner surface 32 of the bottom 15 of the main contact piece 14 and the main contact piece 14 with the contact cylinder 12 firmly connects. The contact pin 18 has a contact finger portion 32 which has at its free end radially an enlarged portion 34 which gives the contact pin 18 a microphone-like structure. The contact pin 32 has an axially extending longitudinal slot 33, whereby two contact pin fingers 35 and 36 are formed. The outer diameter of the portion 34 is greater than the inner diameter of the contact piece 23, so that when an elimination takes place, so if the contact piece carrier is pulled in the direction of arrow P 1 , the inner surface of the contact piece 23 slides on the outer surface of the portion 34 and thus the two Contact pin fingers 35 and 36 press each other.

Das Kontaktstück 23 ist aus lichtbogenabrissfestem Material, ebenso wie der Abschnitt 34.The contact piece 23 is made of arc-resistant material, as well as the section 34th

Wenn nun eine Schalthandlung stattfindet und der Kontaktträger 19 mit dem beweglichen Kontaktstück 23 nach unten (siehe Fig. 1) in Pfeilrichtung P1 gezogen wird, dann gleitet der Kontaktzylinder 22 aus den Kontaktfingern 16 heraus, wie in Fig. 2 ersichtlich ist; in diesem Falle bleibt aber der Kontaktzapfen 18 noch in elektrisch leitender Verbindung mit dem Kontaktstück 23, so dass nach Trennung der Kontaktfinger 16 vom Kontaktzylinder 22 der Strom vom Kontaktzylinder 22 über das Kontaktstück 23 zu dem Kontaktzapfen 18 hin fließt.If now a switching operation takes place and the contact carrier 19 with the movable contact piece 23 down (see Fig. 1 ) is pulled in the direction of arrow P 1 , then slides the contact cylinder 22 out of the contact fingers 16, as in Fig. 2 is apparent; in this case, however, the contact pin 18 still remains in electrically conductive connection with the contact piece 23, so that after separation of the contact fingers 16 from the contact cylinder 22, the current flows from the contact cylinder 22 via the contact piece 23 to the contact pin 18.

Der Blaszylinder 29 besitzt eine Öffnung 40, deren Innendurchmesser etwa dem Außendurchmesser des Abschnittes 34 entspricht. In der Stellung gemäß Fig. 2 gleitet der Blaszylinder 29 mit seiner Öffnung auf den Abschnitt 34 auf. Sobald sich das Kontaktstück 23 von dem Abschnitt 34 des Kontaktzapfens 32 trennt, bildet sich dort ein Lichtbogen 43 (siehe Fig. 3), der von dem Blaszylinder 29 aus isolierendem Material mit der von diesem im Raum 41 befindlichen Gas beblasen wird. Der isolierende Kunststoff des Blaszylinders 29 ist aus Gas abgebendem Material, wodurch der Lichtbogen zwischen dem Abschnitt 34 und dem Kontaktstück 23 optimal beblasen wird.The blowing cylinder 29 has an opening 40 whose inner diameter corresponds approximately to the outer diameter of the section 34. In the position according to Fig. 2 the blowing cylinder 29 slides with its opening on the section 34. As soon as the contact piece 23 separates from the portion 34 of the contact pin 32, there forms an arc 43 (see Fig. 3 ), which is blown by the blowing cylinder 29 made of insulating material with the gas in space 41 of this. The insulating plastic of the blowing cylinder 29 is made of gas-releasing material, whereby the arc between the portion 34 and the contact piece 23 is optimally blown.

Die Fig. 3 zeigt die Kontaktanordnung kurz nach der Trennung des Kontaktstückes 23 vom Abschnitt 34, wobei hier der Lichtbogen 43 gezogen wird, der durch aus dem Raum 41 in Pfeilrichtung P2 ausströmendes Löschgas gelöscht wird.The Fig. 3 shows the contact arrangement shortly after the separation of the contact piece 23 from the section 34, in which case the arc 43 is pulled, which is extinguished by extinguishing gas flowing out of the space 41 in the direction of arrow P 2 .

Mit dem Kontaktzylinder 12 ist ein Becher 50 elektrisch leitend fest verbunden, der den Behälter 10 umgibt und im Bereich der Kontaktstelle einen zwischen dem Kontaktstück und dem Kontaktzylinder 22 befindlichen Feldsteuerring 51 trägt, wie in der Patentanmeldung DE 10 2005 009 207.1 näher beschrieben.With the contact cylinder 12, a cup 50 is electrically connected fixedly surrounding the container 10 and carries in the region of the contact point located between the contact piece and the contact cylinder 22 field control ring 51, as in the patent application DE 10 2005 009 207.1 described in more detail.
