  • the main contacts are usually designed as normally open.
  • the auxiliary contacts the actual switching state of the electromagnetic switching device is tapped.
  • the auxiliary contacts switch to a monitoring voltage, which is often considerably lower than the load voltage. Typically, it is either 24 V DC or 100/110/230 V AC. In some cases higher voltage values are possible.
  • the auxiliary contacts may alternatively be designed as a make or as an opener.
  • the contact erosion causes the main contacts are worn after a certain number of switching cycles.
  • the contact erosion may additionally cause the auxiliary contacts to be impaired in their function, for example by contamination or by corrosion due to the penetration of aggressive gases that arise when Maisabbrand the main contacts. For this reason, the main contacts should be isolated from the auxiliary contacts as well as possible.
  • the object of the present invention is to provide a manufacturing method for an electromagnetic switching device and an electromagnetic switching device manufactured according to this manufacturing method, by means of which, despite one-piece design of the switching chamber good foreclosure of the main contacts can be achieved by the auxiliary contacts.
  • each auxiliary contact bridge is arranged above one of the main contact bridges. It is possible that in this embodiment, the foreclosure of the main contacts of the auxiliary contacts is effected exclusively by the separating elements.
  • the contact bridge carrier per bridge contact point of each auxiliary contact bridge depending on a tongue extending between the bridge contact point of the respective auxiliary contact bridge and the bridge contact of the corresponding main contact bridge extends.
  • the foreclosure effect can be further optimized.
  • the separating elements together with the tongues can form a labyrinth.
  • the separating elements have a U-shaped cross-section. Because they are on the one hand easy to produce and on the other hand still have a good effect.
  • the separators may be simple flat tongues.
  • the loading of the switching chamber with the stationary auxiliary counter contact points must be done after insertion of the contact bridge carrier in the switching chamber.
  • An electromagnetic switching device has a housing 1.
  • a contact bridge carrier 2 is mounted in the housing 1.
  • the Contact bridge carrier 2 is equipped with movable main contact bridges 3 and with movable auxiliary contact bridges 4.
  • the contact bridge carrier 2 is made of electrically insulating material. For example, it may be formed as a plastic injection molded part. It is connected to an anchor 5.
  • a switching coil 6 is further arranged.
  • the switching coil 6 When the switching coil 6 is acted upon by a sufficiently large current I, it attracts the armature 5.
  • the contact bridge carrier 2 is displaced longitudinally in an actuating direction x.
  • bridge contact points 7 of the main contact bridges 3 are pressed against fixed main counter contact points 8, which are arranged in a switching chamber 9.
  • the load voltage may be, for example, 400 V three-phase, 500 V DC, 690 V three-phase, etc.
  • the electromagnetic switching device is designed as a contactor.
  • each one of the auxiliary contacts 4, 10, 11 formed as an opener or as normally open.
  • bridge contact points 10 of one of the auxiliary contacts 4, 10, 11 at auxiliary counter-contact points 11 are pressed against the longitudinal displacement of the contact bridge carrier 2 and bridge contact points 10 of the other of the auxiliary contacts 4, 10, 11 are lifted off corresponding auxiliary counter-contact points 11.
  • the auxiliary counter contact points 11 are fixed counter contact points, with which the switching chamber 9 is equipped.
  • each auxiliary contact bridge 4 is arranged above one of the main contact bridges 3.
  • the switching chamber 9 is firstly produced in a customary manner on the one hand.
  • the switching chamber 9 is integrally formed in the present invention. It consists of an electrically insulating material. For example, it may be formed as a plastic injection molded part. The production of the switching chamber 9 is well known to those skilled in the art and therefore need not be discussed further below.
  • the switching chamber 9 is in FIG. 3 shown.
  • the contact bridge carrier 2 is manufactured and equipped with the movable contact bridges 3, 4.
  • the populated contact bridge carrier 2 is particularly clear in the FIG. 3 and 4 to recognize.
  • the contact bridges 3, 4 comprise a plurality (usually three to five) main contact bridges 3 and at least one (usually one or two) auxiliary contact bridges 4.
  • the contact bridges 3, 4 are referred to as "movable" because they are in operation of the electromagnetic switching device be moved together with the contact bridge carrier 2.
  • Each contact bridge 3, 4 has two bridge contact points 7, 10, which cooperate with the fixed mating contact points 8, 11.
  • the contact bridge carrier 2 further per bridge contact point 10 each auxiliary contact bridge 4 each have a tongue 13.
  • the tongues 13 extend between the respective bridge contact point 10 of the respective auxiliary contact bridge 4 and the bridge contact point 7 of the corresponding main contact bridge 3.
  • the contact bridge carrier 2 can be manufactured and fitted simultaneously with or after the switching chamber 9 has been manufactured.
  • the contact bridge carrier 2 After loading the contact bridge carrier 2, the contact bridge carrier 2 is inserted into the switching chamber 9. The insertion of the contact bridge carrier 2 in the switching chamber 9 takes place here against the actuating direction x. He is also mounted longitudinally displaceable after insertion into the switching chamber 9 in the operating direction x.
  • each separating element 14 is arranged between a bridge contact point 7 of one of the main contact bridges 3 and a bridge contact point 10 of one of the auxiliary contact bridges 4. This is especially clear from the FIG. 5 and 6 seen.
  • the switching chamber 9 is further equipped with the fixed main counter-contact points 8.
  • the main counter-contact points 8 are referred to as "fixed”, because they are stationary in the housing 1 and the switching chamber 9, so do not move together with the contact bridge carrier 2.
  • the loading of the switching chamber 9 with the main counter contact points 8 takes place - analogous to the introduction the separating elements 14 - also in the contact bridge direction y from the outside to the contact bridge carrier 2.
  • main covers 15 are fixed to the switching chamber. This is especially clear FIG. 3 seen.
  • the fixing of the main covers 15 is effected by pressing in the actuation direction x.
  • the main covers 15 can be latched or snapped onto the housing 1 or the switching chamber 9.
  • the main counter-contact points 8 cover the main covers 15 on the one hand, the main counter-contact points 8 from.
  • the switching chamber 9 is equipped with the stationary auxiliary counter-contact points 11.
  • the auxiliary counter-contact points 11 are referred to as "fixed”, because they are arranged stationary in the housing 1 and the switching chamber 9, so do not move together with the contact bridge carrier 2.
  • the loading of the switching chamber 9 with the auxiliary mating contact points 11 also takes place in the contact bridge direction y from the outside to the contact bridge carrier 2.
  • the equipping with fixed auxiliary counter contact points 11 may even follow the fixing of the main cover 15 to the switching chamber 9 under certain circumstances.
  • auxiliary cover 16 After fitting with the fixed auxiliary counter-contact points 11 at least one auxiliary cover 16 is fixed to the switching chamber 9, which covers the auxiliary counter contact points 11 after fixing.
  • the fixing of the auxiliary cover 16 is usually - but not necessarily - after fixing the main covers 15th
  • the individual elements 1 to 16 of the switching device are such coordinated so that the insertion of the separating elements 14 in the switching chamber 9 and the loading of the switching chamber 9 with the fixed main counter contacts 8 and the stationary auxiliary counter contact points 11 after insertion of the equipped with the movable contact bridges 3, 4 contact bridge carrier 2 must be made in the switching chamber 9.
  • the main counter-contact points 8 and the auxiliary counter-contact points 11 protrude into the insertion, which is required for the insertion of the assembled contact bridge carrier 2.
  • the individual elements 1 to 16 of the switching device are coordinated such that the fixing of the main covers 15 must be made to the switching chamber 9 after insertion of the separating elements 14 in the switching chamber 9 and after fitting the switching chamber 9 with the fixed main counter contact points 8. Because after fixing the main covers 15, insertion of the separating elements 14 and the main counter-contact points 8 in the switching chamber 9 is no longer possible.
  • the auxiliary counter contact points 11 must be used before fixing the main covers 15. In other embodiments, (or must - depending on the configuration), the loading with the fixed auxiliary counter-contact points 11 after fixing the main cover 15 done.
  • the tongues 13 of the contact bridge carrier 2 are - see FIG. 8 - Between the separating elements 14 and the bridge contact points 7 of the main contact bridges 3 are arranged. They form according to FIG. 8 together with the separating elements 14 a - preferably double - labyrinth.
  • the achieved Abschottungsrial here is particularly large when the separating elements 14 have a U-shaped cross-section. This too is out FIG. 8 seen.
  • the separating elements 14 may be formed, for example, as simple tongues.
  • the present invention has many advantages. In particular, it results in a simpler, more reliable and less expensive Structure of the electromagnetic switching device. Furthermore, the contact bridge carrier 2 can be equipped in advance (that is, even before insertion into the switching chamber 9). Also, it is easily possible to realize a double maze. Finally, it results - see in particular FIG. 7 - A compact overall design of the electromagnetic switching device.
