Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a method for manufacturing contact pads for an electrical breaking device, said contact pad comprising at least one slot, and a contact pad made according to the method mentioned above.
  • the document DE 2454157 describes a device according to the preamble of claim 1.
  • a preform is made consisting of a cylinder of diameter slightly greater than the final diameter of the contact and thickness, that of the contact after machining.
  • This preform is sintered, calibrated and then annealed in order to give the contact the desired physicochemical properties including the desired electrical conductivity.
  • This preform is then machined to give the contact its final shape.
  • the shape of the contact contributes to the breaking function of the vacuum bulbs, especially with the machining of the slots.
  • This fabrication ends in a deburring step, this step having for objective to remove any sharp angle possibly left by machining chips and affecting the dielectric strength of the contact in the vacuum bottle.
  • the first is a metallurgical step of sintering the preform and obtaining the final physicochemical properties
  • the second is a machining step.
  • This last step does not really have any added value in the manufacture of the contact. This machining cost is all the more important as some suppliers perform a manual deburring operation, a necessary operation in areas inaccessible to tools, such as the end of machined slots.
  • the present invention solves these disadvantages and proposes a contact pad according to claim 1.
  • this vacuum interrupter comprises a cylindrical envelope inside which are housed two arcing contacts respectively a fixed arcing contact and a movable arcing contact, this movable contact being able to be moved. inside the casing between two positions respectively a closing position of the contacts and a position of opening of the contacts.
  • this contact pad 1 is in one piece and was made by shrinking, then machining the slots.
  • a contact pad 2 made according to the method of the invention is illustrated.
  • the first step of the method consists in identifying the shape of an elementary piece 3 having no slot, which part is intended to be reproduced in a certain number of copies, these elementary pieces 3 then being intended to be assembled in such a way as to forming a disk-shaped pellet 2 having slots 4.
  • the elementary part 3 is manufactured for example by sintering without additional machining.
  • the slots 4 of the contact pad 2 are formed by two facing edges 4a, 4b respectively belonging to two adjacent elementary pieces 3a, 3b.
  • the pellet 2 is constituted by four elementary pieces 3a, 3b, 3c, 3d such as that illustrated on FIG. figure 3 said pieces being assembled to form a whole pellet.
  • each of the elementary pieces 3 is formed by a ring quarter 5 connected on a part of its outer circumference 6 by a beak-shaped part 7, this part 7 having a circular peripheral edge 8 forming the circular peripheral edge of the contact pad 2, a rectilinear inner edge 9 and an outer lateral edge 10.
  • the rectilinear inner edge 9 of an elementary piece 3a forms with the outer rectilinear edge 10a of a adjacent part 3d an orthoradial slot 11.
  • the lateral outer edge 10 of the elementary part 3a forms with the rectilinear inner edge 9a of an adjacent elementary piece 3b an orthoradial rectilinear slot 11a of the contact pad 2.
  • said elementary part After manufacture of the elementary part for example by sintering, said elementary part is calibrated, then annealed, in order to give the material of said part the expected physicochemical properties of the contact material.
  • the piece thus manufactured can be deburred by industrial means (for example by passing the barrel).
  • the contact is then reconstituted by final assembly of the various elementary parts and fixing of this assembly by a solder 12 on a contact support 13.
  • this elementary part being smaller in size than the final pellet, the means of implementation, for example comprising a pelletizing press, are reduced and require less investment.
  • the steps for calibrating and assembling the elementary shapes can be performed simultaneously with the aid of a shrinking piece 14, ensuring the mechanical strength of the contact, a solder 15 solidarizing the contact pad 2 to the contact support 13.
  • the manufacturing method according to the invention applies in particular to vacuum interrupters of circuit breakers using the so-called axial magnetic field cleavage technique, as shown in FIG. figure 6 , or radial magnetic field as shown on the figure 7 , the slots 4 being oriented differently on the contact pad 2 according to the cutting technique used.
  • the invention is also applicable to similar contacts having slots belonging to electrical switching devices. According to the example of the bulb illustrated on the figure 6 , the slots 16 are radial, while according to the embodiment of the bulb illustrated on the figure 7 the slots 17 are orthoradial.
  • the number of segments constituting the pellet is at least two, the maximum limitation being determined by the technological limits of elaboration.
  • the method of manufacturing contact pads according to the invention is applicable to any pad intended for the manufacture of contacts comprising slots for switches, circuit breakers, contactors with vacuum technology or other, in the fields of the average , low or high voltage, whatever its destination, from the moment when the pellet can be segmented into several elementary forms without any slot involving mechanical embrittlement of the piece to be sintered.
  • the invention can be used for contact pads consisting of contact material compositions for cutting short circuit currents (circuit breakers) or load currents (switches), occasionally or with high electrical endurance (contactors), for example contacts made of Cu-Cr with a mass percentage of chromium of between 10% and 60%.
  • a method of manufacturing a contact pad which is particularly economical, has a reduced implementation means. Indeed, the elementary part being of smaller dimensions than the final pellet, the implementation means used (for example a pelletizing press) are reduced and require less investment.
  • the invention also makes it possible to produce complex slot shapes that can hardly be obtained by machining. In addition, this type of elemental petal is easily achievable directly to the sides by metallurgy powders, this being more difficult for whole pellets because of the slots.
  • the invention is not limited to the embodiments described and illustrated which have been given by way of example.
