Definitions

  • the invention relates to the field of metal-wrapped three-phase switching devices.
  • the invention relates to the arrangement of this type of devices and the control of the movable contacts of switches constituting the three phases.
  • FIG. 1 is a front view of the station 1 in vertical operating position on which one recognizes the single metal shell 2 filled SF6 gas surmounted a control apparatus 3.
  • This single control device 3 type integrated springs, control when switching, actuating the moving contacts of the three poles R, S, T of the circuit breaker housed in the casing 2 via a single mechanical transmission mechanism 4.
  • This single mechanical transmission mechanism 4 is connected on the one hand to the output shaft 30 of the control device 3 and on the other hand to all three movable contacts of the poles.
  • This mechanism 4 further comprises a portion 40 constituted by a system of levers and connecting rods, shown in dashed lines on the figure 1 , which is arranged externally both of the frame 31 of the control apparatus 3 and of the metal casing 2. Suitable seals seal at the point of passage of the transmission shaft 41 in the metal casing 2.
  • a station advantageously has a small footprint. In some configurations, it is necessary to switch each pole independently. In addition, it would be desirable, during switching, to reduce the mechanical forces involved in the transmission. It would also be desirable to achieve this with the minimum of parts.
  • a solution for operating the three phases independently of one another is widely known for metal-walled three-phase type devices. It consists in controlling each of the three movable switch contacts independently of the others by means of a clean control device and consequently using a own transmission mechanism.
  • the patent US 4,417,111 discloses a metal enclosed three phase circuit breaker with independent control for each moving phase contact.
  • the three identical control devices are arranged below and on the front of the metal casing.
  • Each control apparatus comprises an opening mechanism 15, a closing spring 22, a shaft rotating main 10. These elements are connected by means of levers and connecting rods.
  • the levers and links of the pole W are different from those of the poles U and V.
  • the rotary shafts 10 are each connected identically to a movable contact 4 of a circuit breaker pole.
  • the main control shaft 10 is rotated with a predefined movement stroke of less than 180 ° in a first direction of rotation.
  • the main shaft is rotated in a second predefined motion stroke of less than 180 ° in an opposite direction.
  • the implementation of this circuit breaker involves a large footprint, especially axial, and the use of a high number of parts.
  • the patent US 5,569,891 also discloses a three-phase circuit breaker with independent control for each moving phase contact but with three identical metal casings which each house a pole of the circuit breaker. As illustrated on the figure 4 of this patent, the three metal shells 3 of the same dimensions are arranged horizontally and parallel to each other.
  • the control set 30 is arranged below the support structure and comprises three identical and independent control devices, each connected to a transmission rod 32, 33, 34. These transmission rods 32, 33, 34 are each connected to a movable circuit breaker contact by means of levers 40, 41, 43 and transmission shafts 36, 37, 38, 39 arranged along a common axis.
  • This arrangement necessarily implies the use of a high number of parts due in particular to the use of three metal envelopes, the required joints.
  • the arrangement of the three controls below the support structure on the side of the pole axes and the arrangement of the transmission shafts 36, 37, 38, 39 on a common axis imply a larger space requirement.
  • the patent US 6,437,276 discloses a three-phase metal-enclosed circuit breaker with a single control for the three moving phase contacts.
  • the single control 22 is arranged on the side of the circuit breaker and is connected via a plurality of levers and links to the moving phase contacts.

  • the circuit breaker must be designed with a metal enclosure per pole (see column 7, lines 31 to 41) or with a metal envelope by three poles (see column 6, lines 49-52).
  • the object of the invention is to overcome the aforementioned drawbacks and in particular to propose a solution that allows a switching device, for example of the type marketed under the name "AREVA F35", to have an independent control per pole without affecting the size of the circuit breaker.
  • Another object of the invention is to use a minimum of different parts to achieve all the independent commands of the poles.
  • the independent operation of the three breaker poles is obtained with a minimum of additional space requirement and with a minimum of different parts. and also a strong decrease in mechanical forces involved to transmit the movement to the three contacts during a switch while maintaining a small footprint.
