  • a breakable mechanical connection is provided between the transmission rod 9 and the drive plate of the contact carrier 2. In the locked position, the connection allows the manual control of the mechanism by the lever 7.
  • the movement of the trigger lever 16 towards the triggered position under the action of the trigger causes the momentary break of the mechanical connection, causing the automatic triggering of the mechanism, independently of the joystick.
  • the trip lever 16 is associated with a return spring 19 for ensuring the automatic restoration of the mechanical link when the handle 7 is actuated to the open position, following a trigger of the fault mechanism.
  • the breakable mechanical link comprises a hook 20 pivotally mounted on an axis Z of the plate 15. At the opposite of this axis Z, a spout 21 of the hook (not visible in the figures) cooperates in the locked position of the link with a retaining catch 22 (not visible in the figures) located on the arm of the trip lever 16.
  • the transmission link 9 is coupled to the hook 20 and the plate 15 at a hinge point that can move when triggered in two consecutive apertures 23,24 of the plate 15. This point of articulation is located between the hinge axis Z of the hook 20 on the plate 15 and the spout 21 of the hook hook.
  • the device further comprises a stop 33 ( fig.8 ) integral with the plate 15 and adapted to cooperate with the hook 20 so as to ensure the position of the handle 7 in an intermediate position of the handle 7 wherein the contacts 3,4 are welded.
  • This control device 1 also comprises a pawl 25 rotatably mounted around the axis X of the lever 7 and returned by the aforementioned spring 11 in the counterclockwise direction against a stop 7a of the base 8 of the handle 7 ( fig.2 ).
  • this spring 11 comprises a first leg 11a fixed in the casing 26 and a second leg 11b resting on a stop 25a of the pawl and also intended to return the lever 7 in the open position by the abutments on the stops 7a of the handle and 25b of the ratchet ( fig.2 ).
  • This pawl 25 has an outer surface 27, said first, in the form of a cylinder portion intended to cooperate with a ramp 28 provided at the end of the contact carrier 2, so that the contact carrier 2 is retained in the position of opening of the contacts during the closure of the handle 7, for a certain period corresponding to the time during which the pawl 25 slides along the ramp 28 of the contact carrier 2.
  • This pawl 25 comprises, at the end 29 of the outer surface 27 in the form of said cylinder portion, a surface portion 30, said second, extending substantially perpendicular to the surface portion 27, said first, and from of which extends a band of material forming the indicator 31.
  • This portion of surface 30, called second comprises a portion 30a ( fig.2 ) intended to cooperate with a nose portion 32 formed at the end of the ramp 28 of the aforementioned contact carrier 2, so as to retain the pawl, against its return spring 11, in a position in which the LED 31 is not visible from the outside, when the handle 7 is driven from the closed position of the contacts to the open position of the contacts when the contacts are soldered.
  • the base 8 of the handle 7 has an outer surface 34 also shaped cylinder portion, and this base has a clearance of material 35 whose outer shape is complementary to that of the inner surface 37 of the strip of material 31 forming the light, so that in the open position of the contacts, these two last surfaces are superimposed, said strip of material 31 forming a light having an outer surface 38 located in the extension of the outer surface 34 of the aforementioned base 8.
  • the handle 7 has begun to be moved manually to the closed position by a movement from left to right.
  • the kinematic chain connecting the lever 7 to the plate 15 drives the contact holder 2 towards the fixed contact 4.
  • the lever 7 drives the pawl 25 in its movement because the indicator 31 is supported on the base 8 of the handle 7 in the open position.
  • the pawl 25 rotates with the handle 7 and approaches the contact holder, which rotates in the opposite direction.
  • the engagement of the pawl 25 with the ramp 28 of the contact carrier 2 stops the rotation of the contact carrier, and maintains the contact piece 3 of the contact carrier 2 at a predetermined distance from the fixed contact 4.
  • the contact carrier 2 remains then still, but the pawl 25 can nevertheless slide along the ramp 28, allowing the closing movement of the lever 7.
  • the lever 7 continues to actuate the mechanism that tends the pressure spring of contact. This results in an accumulation of energy in the contact pressure spring until the end of the sliding movement of the pawl on the ramp, position represented on the figure 6 .
  • the final movement of the handle 7 towards the closed position illustrated on the figure 7 causes the release of the contact carrier 2 by the pawl 25, followed by the abrupt closure of the contact carrier 2 under the action of the drive train and in particular the contact pressure spring.
  • the indicator 31 passes from the visible position from the outside to the retracted position inside the device.
  • the pawl When manually opening the circuit breaker as shown on the figure 8 , the pawl abuts on the spout 32 of the contact holder without hindering the free pivoting of the plate and the contact holder. Then, the ratchet remains in position and the handle and its mechanism continue their rotation. When the opening distance between the contacts 3 and 4 is greater than 1.5mm, the pawl escapes the stop 32 and is biased against the face 7a of the base 8 of the lever under the effect of the spring. 11, to the open position of the joystick illustrated on the figure 5 and the indicator 31 appears through the opening 5 of the housing, as shown in FIG. figure 1 .
  • the handle 7 can move to a certain point but does not drive the plate because the contacts are welded.
  • the pawl 25 is biased towards the lever in the opposite trigonometric direction by its return spring 11.
  • the pawl 25 comes into contact with its so-called second ramp surface 30, with the spout 32 of the contact carrier and is retained by this contact carrier in an intermediate position in which the indicator 31 is retracted inside the device as shown in FIG. figure 8 .
  • the indicator 31 remains in this intermediate position as the contacts are welded.
  • the indicator 31 is carried by the pawl 25 which serves for the sudden closure.
  • This pawl is locked in the intermediate position by the contact carrier 2 when the contacts are welded.
  • the kinematics of the indicator is independent of external actions on the controller.
  • the present invention applies to any electrical breaking device such as a circuit breaker, a switch or a disconnector, etc. whose contacts can be actuated by a handle or the like, and comprising a sudden closure device, said abrupt closure device comprising a pawl rotatably mounted about the axis of the handle.
