Definitions

  • the present invention relates to an electrical mechanism devised for its application in low voltage systems in applications such as a switch or button or change-over switch, essentially characterized in that It is provided with a series of elements which permit the quick and sufficient connection of the conductors related thereto, elements which are characterized both by their special structure as well as by the manner of placement and application, also being characteristic of said mechanism the arrangement of the base, whose lower face is featured in a V-shape, and the permanent coupling with its cover, once the components have been arranged in the interior thereof. All of this will be described in detail over the course of the present specification.
  • One of the basic special features of the electrical mechanisms which are used in low voltage systems, generally domestic or in small shops, offices or such like, is that of facilitating the work of the installer as much as possible by means of the presentation of these mechanisms, in their applications as switches, buttons or change-over switches, equipped with devices which permit them to carry out, in the wiring process of the assembly, a quick connection of the electrical conductors which come in contact with the mechanism, both at the intake and outlet, thereby guaranteeing that this connection will be sufficient and permanent, establishing the electrical contact necessary and preventing an accidental detachment of the conductor, which will remain in this fixed and stable position.
  • Document DE 10238852 B3 relates to a switching device with a housing formed by a lid Is closed on one side and a plunger against a spring blas relative to the housing in its longitudinal direction, slidably receives, wherein the tappet at least one contact bridge which interacts with a housing-fixed contacts by displacing the plunger for effecting the switching operation, the housing-mounted contacts as cutting contacts with two through a slot separated from one another, for as cutting an insulated lead wire serving legs are formed, wherein the contacts are in pairs in the longitudinal direction of the plunger in succession and with their towards the lid open slots arranged transversely to the longitudinal direction of the plunger, wherein a crimping lever on the housing; is pivotally hinged, the webs, push on when closing the crimping lever at the slots located lead wires in the slots.
  • the mechanism object of the present invention offers advantages which meet the previously detailed requirements, as it is equipped with an assembly of suitable components to carry out this quick connection, the mechanism being complemented with the suitable arrangement of the rest of the already known components, essential to complete the mechanism, such as, in the example that will be disclosed, the arrangement of a light emitting device.
  • This mechanism features the following applications, by means of the simple necessary change of the corresponding contacts, of general use such as: switch, light switch, push button switch, light push button switch, change-over switch and push button change-over switch.
  • a characteristic of the mechanism object of the present invention is that it features a variant of its base, which permits its use for all of the previously listed applications, except those of change-over switch and push button change-over switch. For this reason, in the embodiment of this variant various unnecessary small partitions have been eliminated, with the subsequent saving of material.
  • the electrical mechanism for various applications is constituted by a base -1-, the lower part whereof adopting the characteristic V-shape, with the purpose of leaving more space for the wiring of the assembly, and whereon the facing sides whereof are placed connection keys -2-, both situated on housings -3- located on the outer part of the base -1-.
  • the assembly or group of contacts is situated in the interior of said base -1-; the contacts, grouped two by two, are known as the so-called "knife" type -4- and -4a-, open at their front face with a vertical aperture -4b-, similar to two facing knives, wherein the end of the conductor wire -19- being connected is held.
  • the contacts grouped two by two, are known as the so-called "knife" type -4- and -4a-, open at their front face with a vertical aperture -4b-, similar to two facing knives, wherein the end of the conductor wire -19- being connected is held.
  • cross-over switch there are two knife contacts -4-, and two knife contacts -4a- while in the others only three are necessary. Two of these knife contacts -4- are solidly joined at their lower part by means of a lower connector -5- characteristic of these groups of contacts.
  • the other two knife contacts -4a- are situated facing the previous ones and in the middle area opposing the base -1-, all of these knife contacts -4- and - 4a- being housed In spaces -7- delimited by small partitions situated in the interior of the base -1-. All of these knife contacts remain thus positioned, the aperture -4b- being situated outwards, specifically towards the bottom of the housings -3- of the quick connection keys.
  • Said lower connector -5- is fastened on a pivot -6- situated at the bottom of the base - 1-.
  • a cover -12- closes the assembly of the mechanism, by being attached on the base -1-, as drawn in figs. 3 and 4 , being held shut by the action of four teeth -13-, which are part of said base -1- on its upper edges corresponding to the sides where the knife contacts -4- and -4a- are positioned and which fit into the slots -14- of the cover -12- on the inner edge of its upper face. It is clear that the closure of the cover - 12- on the base -1-is performed solely when all of the components of the mechanism (knife contacts, group of contacts, springs, etc.) have been previously placed inside the base -1-,
  • This cover -12- whereon the sides -15- whereof are supported the lateral pivots -11a-of the swinging element -11-, has in its interior the apertures necessary - 16- for the passage towards the interior of the lower tower -10- of said swinging element -11-, in direction towards the moving contact -8-.
  • a cylindrical spring -9a- is situated under the front part of the swinging element -11- in the necessary return action in the variant of application as button.
  • the swinging element -11- is positioned the light emitting device -30- provided on Its lower face with the two contacts -31-, which will be inserted towards the interior of the base -1- through the apertures -12a- on the lower face of the cover -12-.
  • connection keys -2- is provided, on their rear end, with two cylindrical pins -17-, axial in the direction of an imaginary transversal axis, which allow the connection key -2- to be positioned on the side of the base -1-, these pins -17- fitting into the interior of semi-cylindrical seats -18- of the base -1- in the sides of the corresponding aperture -3- where the key -2- has to be situated.
  • connection key -2- The positioning and fastening of the connection key -2- is initiated, as can be observed In figures 2 to 4 , previously situating it in horizontal position to make it descend until the pins -17- thereof are positioned in the semi-cylindrical seats -18-; subsequently the cover -12- is placed and then the connection key -2- is turned until reaching its initial stable position for the connection of the electrical conductor wire -19-.
  • connection key -2- (see fig. 5 ), practically next to its own edge.
  • a stub -24- is located inside the slot -25- in the base -1- and a stub -26-(directly below stub - 24-), is located outside the edge of the base -1-.
  • connection key -2- has a cylindrical hollow -20- on its external face -21-, a face provided with a suitable threading for a better grip. Inside of this cylindrical hollow -20-will be placed the end of the electrical conductor -19-, until it runs into the bottom thereof, next to the interior face -22- of the key, a face disposed in the shape of a fork and which delimits an upper aperture -23- wherein the front face of the knife contacts - 4- are situated, where the apertures -4b- are.
  • Fig. 7 shows the end of the cycle, when the connection key -2- has made it to its final position, with its external face -21- inclined towards the interior of the lower part of the base -1-, position wherein said key will remain perfectly attached, while the connection is maintained.
  • This attachment or fastening is carried out by the actuation of a stub -27-, which in principle leans on a spring -28-, which is on the base -1- in the lower area of the interior face of its side walls.
  • a stub -27- which in principle leans on a spring -28-, which is on the base -1- in the lower area of the interior face of its side walls.
  • connection key -2- In this final stable position of the connection key -2-, the conductor -19- remains perfectly connected, after the retaining action of the key -2- and of the knife contact -4-, by means of its front aperture -4b-. As can be observed in figure 7 , this final stable position of each one of the connection keys -2- is towards the interior of the lower part of the base -1-, almost coinciding with the V-shape thereof, occupying a minimal space and remaining protected.
  • the mechanism will feature a practical variant of base -1a- ( figures 10 and 11 ) used in the applications as switch and button, applications which only require three knife contacts, two contacts -4- and one contact - 4a-, as can be observed in figure 1 .
  • it will come into contact, in its swinging displacement, with the moving contact -8-, which in its "non contact” position rests against a buffer -29- on the base -1 a- instead of the corresponding space -7-.
  • the mechanism is characterized in that it has a light emitting device -30-, situated above the swinging element -11-, and provided with two contacts -31-, which are inserted In the interior of the mechanism through the apertures -12a- that the cover -12- has for said purpose, with the practical aim of coming directly in contact with the contacts which correspond for their specific function.
