  • Such circuit breakers are generally used to protect the lines of a load circuit and a switchable arranged in this consumer against short circuit or overload.
  • the load circuit is connected to the outer conductor of a supply or operating voltage via the circuit breaker, which shuts off the load or control circuit in case of failure.
  • a manual reset of the circuit breaker is made possible after triggering the circuit breaker in case of failure, so that the load circuit is again connected to the outer conductor of the supply or operating voltage.
  • the manually operable control element is usually a rocker switch or a button.
  • a single-pole circuit breaker is for example from the DE 101 20 189 A1 known, which can be latched onto a DIN rail and has a manually operable actuating lever.
  • the invention has for its object to provide a circuit breaker with improved ease of use.
  • the operating element is designed as a touch-sensitive control panel, which is integrated in the housing of the circuit breaker.
  • the control panel also referred to as “touch panel” or “touch screen”, is thus part of the circuit breaker.
  • touch-sensitive control panel is an operating unit understood in the on a touch screen or touch screen, a switching element is displayed electronically, wherein upon touching the screen in the region of the switching element shown an operating command is generated.
  • the control panel has no moving switching element parts.
  • control panel is also designed as a display element for displaying a current status information of the circuit breaker.
  • it is therefore displayed on the control panel, if the circuit breaker has triggered in the wake of an error and is in the "off" position or if it is in the normal operating position "on".
  • the control panel which also functions as a display element, the most varied information can also be displayed here or displayed via a menu.
  • control panel is integrated according to an expedient embodiment in the front of the housing and in particular forms a major part of the front to have the largest possible area for the control panel available.
  • control panel is connected to a control device, which is designed to deliver a control signal, wherein the control signal pulls an actuation of the switching element in response to the operation of the control panel by itself.
  • the control device therefore converts the operating commands entered via the touch panel into corresponding control commands or control signals.
  • the control device also controls the information displayed on the control panel, such as status information about the state of the circuit breaker.
  • the control device is also provided with a memory, which information contains, for example, on existing configuration states of the circuit breaker or on the history, for example, information at what time the circuit breaker has triggered, etc. This information is preferably readable or displayed on the control panel and can thus be used in the wake of an error case for a fault diagnosis For example, to evaluate when the error occurred.
  • circuit breaker is still configurable via the control panel. For example, tripping thresholds are set via the control panel.
  • the switching element is an electronic switching element, such as intelligent power semiconductors or semiconductor switching elements such as FET or MOS devices.
  • the control panel is in this case connected via the control device with the switching element for its actuation.
  • the integration of the touch panel in an electronic circuit breaker with such an electronic switching element is particularly advantageous because sufficient for the actuation of the switching element electrical control signals that are generated directly from the control device in a simple manner.
  • the switching element has a mechanically operable switching element, wherein an actuator is provided for actuating the switching element, which is activated by means of the control signal.
  • an actuator is for example an electric motor drive, with which the mechanical switching element in the normal operating position "on" can be brought.
  • a magnetically acting actuator can also be provided.
  • the sketched in the figures only greatly simplified sketched circuit breaker 2 is connected in a load circuit 4.
  • a voltage source 6 for providing an operating voltage U and a load 8, for example, a machine in a production line, a motor or other electrical consumer, arranged.
  • the load 8 is connected via a line 10 to the operating voltage.
  • the load 8 can also be connected in multiple poles to the voltage source 6.
  • In a multi-pole supply usually each strand of the line 10 is monitored via a respective circuit breaker 2 or a protective switch device.
  • the circuit breaker 2 protects the line 10 and the load 8 against an overload current or against a short-circuit current.
  • a switching element 12 of the circuit breaker separates the load 8 from the load circuit 4.
  • the switching element is formed as an electronic switching element, for example as a power semiconductor, a FET or MOS semiconductor device or the like.
  • the switching element 12 comprises a mechanically operable switching element 14.
  • the switching element 14 is designed as a thermal, thermal-magnetic or similar circuit breaker. Also a pure switching contact is possible when the current is detected and via the control device 22, a trigger signal for actuating the switching element 14 is generated
  • the circuit breaker 2 has a housing 16 shown in dashed lines in the figures.
  • a touch-sensitive control panel 20 also commonly referred to as a touch panel integrated.
  • the control panel 20 is connected to a control device 22. This is again in the embodiment of Fig. 1 with the electronic switching element 12 and in the embodiment of Fig. 2 connected to an actuator 24.
  • the actuator 24 acts on the switching element 14 via an actuator 26.
  • control or control signals C1 are transmitted from the control panel 20 to the control device.
  • control device 22 transmits control signals C2 to the electronic switching element 12 or to the actuator 24. These in turn transmit status signals S2 to the control device 22.
  • the circuit breaker 2 monitors the load circuit 8 for overcurrent.
  • the current status of the switching element 12 is transmitted as a status signal S2 to the control device 22 and from this as a status signal S1 on to the control panel 20, which is also designed as a display element, and displays the current status.
  • the control panel 20 preferably covers the entire or almost the entire surface of the front side 18 in order to provide the largest possible operating and display area.
  • a mechanical or electronic coupling of a plurality of circuit breaker 2 which are arranged side by side, for example, on a top hat rail and which are each provided for switching a wire of a multipolar line, only one control panel for the plurality of circuit breaker 2 is preferably provided.
