Es wird demnach von einem Überspannungsschutzgerät mit einem oder mehreren parallel geschalteten, in einer baulichen Einheit befindlichen überspannungsbegrenzenden Elementen, wie Varistoren, Dioden oder dergleichen scheibenförmig konfigurierten Mitteln ausgegangen. Das Überspannungsschutzgerät umfasst eine Schaltvorrichtung, um bei thermischer Überlastung der überspannungsbegrenzenden Elemente, insbesondere Varistoren, diese elektrisch abzutrennen. Weiterhin sind Mittel zur Anzeige und/oder Meldung des im Abtrennfall gegebenen Fehlerzustands vorhanden. Die Schaltvorrichtung ist über ein thermisch lösbares Mittel, wie z.B. einen Kleber, ein Wachs oder ein Lot, mit einem der Anschlusskontakte des mindestens einen überspannungsbegrenzenden Elements und/oder ebenfalls mit einem solchen thermisch lösbaren Mittel mit einem äußeren Klemm- oder Steckkontakt in Verbindung stehend. Der mindestens eine Anschlusskontakt befindet sich hierbei an einer der Seitenflächen des scheibenförmig konfigurierten, überspannungsbegrenzenden Elements.It is therefore assumed that an overvoltage protection device with one or more parallel-connected, located in a structural unit overvoltage limiting elements, such as varistors, diodes or the like disk-shaped configured means. The overvoltage protection device comprises a switching device, in order to electrically isolate the thermal overload of the overvoltage limiting elements, in particular varistors. Furthermore, there are means for displaying and / or reporting the fault condition given in the event of disconnection. The switching device is accessible via a thermally-releasable means, such as e.g. an adhesive, a wax or a solder, with one of the terminal contacts of the at least one overvoltage limiting element and / or also with such a thermally releasable means with an external clamping or plug contact related. The at least one connection contact is in this case on one of the side surfaces of the disk-shaped, overvoltage limiting element.
Erfindungsgemäß ist die Schaltvorrichtung als U-förmige, aus einem massiven Material bestehende Schaltgabel ausgebildet, deren Gabelzinken im Wesentlichen parallel zu den Seitenflächen des überspannungsbegrenzenden Elements, dieses im Zinkenzwischenraum aufnehmend, verlaufen.According to the switching device is designed as a U-shaped, consisting of a solid material shift fork, the fork tines substantially parallel to the side surfaces of the overvoltage limiting element, this in the tine gap receiving.
Der die Gabelzinken verbindende Abschnitt steht mit einem der äußeren Klemm- oder Steckkontakte in elektrischer Verbindung und ruht auf einem Abtrennschlitten, welcher mindestens einen klauenartigen Abschnitt umfasst, der das dort befindliche Ende der Schaltgabel umgreift.The section connecting the forks is in electrical connection with one of the outer clamping or plug contacts and rests on a separating slide, which comprises at least one claw-like section which engages around the end of the shift fork located there.
Der Abtrennschlitten steht unter Vorspannung, insbesondere unter Federkraftvorspannung, wobei der diesbezügliche Kraftvektor von der Verbindungsstelle zwischen Schaltgabel und äußerem Klemm- oder Steckkontakt wegweisend orientiert ist.The separation carriage is under bias, in particular under spring force bias, wherein the relevant force vector of the connection point between the shift fork and outer terminal or plug contact is groundbreaking oriented.
Mindestens einer der Gabelzinken liegt an dem mindestens einen Anschlusskontakt des insbesondere Varistors an und ist dort über das bereits erwähnte thermisch lösbare Mittel fixiert, wobei im Abtrennfall sich der Abtrennschlitten unter Mitnahme der Schaltgabel bewegt und hierbei die Verbindungsstelle zwischen Gabelzinken und Anschlusskontakt einen Drehpunkt bezüglich der Schaltgabelbewegung darstellt.At least one of the forks is applied to the at least one terminal contact of the particular varistor and is there fixed on the aforementioned thermally releasable means, wherein in Abtrennfall the separating slide moves along with the shift fork and in this case the junction between the forks and terminal contact a pivot point with respect to the shift fork movement represents.
Da im Gegensatz zu verschiedenen Lösungen des Standes der Technik eine Biegebewegung der Schaltvorrichtung nicht erforderlich wird, kann diese aus einem besonders massiven Material bestehen, so dass eine hohe Stoßstromtragfähigkeit erreichbar ist. Auch führt die massive Ausführung der Schaltgabel zu einer ausgezeichneten Wärmeleitfähigkeit, so dass sich ein sehr guter thermischer Kontakt von der Wärmequelle, d.h. dem überspannungsbegrenzenden Element hin zur Wärmesenke, d.h. den entsprechenden Verbindungsstellen ergibt, die mit dem thermisch lösbaren Mittel versehen sind.Since, in contrast to various solutions of the prior art, a bending movement of the switching device is not required, it can be made of a particularly massive material, so that a high surge current carrying capacity can be achieved. Also, the massive design of the shift fork results in excellent thermal conductivity so that very good thermal contact from the heat source, i. the surge limiting element towards the heat sink, i. gives the corresponding joints, which are provided with the thermally releasable means.
Bei einer bevorzugten Ausführungsform bestehen die überspannungsbegrenzenden Elemente aus mindestens zwei parallel angeordneten Varistorscheiben, die jeweils auf einer ihrer Seitenflächen einen ersten Anschlusskontakt besitzen, wobei die weiteren zweiten Anschlusskontakte mit dem weiteren der äußeren Klemm- oder Steckkontakte elektrisch verbunden sind. Die jeweiligen Gabelzinken der Schaltgabel sind bei dieser Ausführungsform mit jeweils einem der ersten Anschlusskontakte über das thermisch lösbare Mittel fixiert, wobei auftretende Ströme nun in paralleler Richtung durch die Gabelzinken fließen können.In a preferred embodiment, the overvoltage limiting elements consist of at least two varistor disks arranged in parallel, each of which has a first connection contact on one of its side surfaces, the further second connection contacts being electrically connected to the further one of the outer clamping or plug contacts. The respective forks of the shift fork are fixed in this embodiment, each with one of the first connection contacts on the thermally releasable means, wherein occurring currents can now flow in a parallel direction through the forks.
Der Abtrennschlitten ist in einer Führung gelagert, welche Bestandteil des Bodens eines das Schutzgerät aufnehmenden Gehäuses ist.The separation slide is mounted in a guide, which is part of the bottom of a protective device housing receiving.
Dabei bewegt sich der Abtrennschlitten parallel zum Gehäuseboden zwischen dort befindlichen Durchbrüchen zur Aufnahme der Klemm- oder Steckkontakte.In this case, the separation slide moves parallel to the housing bottom between there openings for receiving the clamping or plug contacts.
Die klauenartigen Abschnitte des Abtrennschlittens erstrecken sich vom Gehäuseboden aus nach oben, wobei bevorzugt zwei klauenartige Abschnitte an den jeweilig äußeren Endabschnitten des Abtrennschlittens vorhanden sind, um die Schaltgabel sicher zu greifen, ohne dass ein Verkanten bei dem Abtrennvorgang auftritt. Die scheibenförmigen überspannungsbegrenzenden Elemente erstrecken sich im Wesentlichen senkrecht vom Gehäuseboden nach oben, wobei zwischen Abtrennschlitten und den scheibenförmigen überspannungsbegrenzenden Elementen ein isolierendes Tragteil vorgesehen ist.The claw-like portions of the severance slide extend upwardly from the housing bottom, preferably having two claw-like portions at the respective outer end portions of the severance carriage to securely grasp the shift fork without causing tilting in the severing operation. The disk-shaped overvoltage limiting elements extend substantially perpendicularly from the housing bottom upwards, wherein an insulating support member is provided between the separating slide and the disk-shaped overvoltage limiting elements.
Über die Längsaußenkante der scheibenförmigen überspannungsbegrenzenden Mittel, diese teilweise umgreifend, ist ein Befestigungsschenkel zur Aufnahme einer beweglichen optischen Anzeigeplatte vorhanden.
Die bewegliche Anzeigeplatte umfasst mindestens einen, vorzugsweise zwei seitliche Fortsätze mit Nut, wobei ein Ende bzw. beide Enden des Gabelzinkens der Schaltgabel in die betreffende Nut eingreifen, um beim Abtrennvorgang die Position der Anzeigeplatte zu verändern.About the longitudinal outer edge of the disc-shaped overvoltage limiting means, this partially encompassing, a mounting leg for receiving a movable optical display plate is present.
The movable display plate comprises at least one, preferably two lateral projections with groove, wherein one end or both ends of the fork tine of the shift fork engage in the respective groove in order to change the position of the display plate during the separation process.
Im Gehäuseboden befindet sich ausgestaltend eine Öffnung zur Aufnahme eines Stiftes, insbesondere Druckstifts, welcher in Abhängigkeit von der Position des Abtrennschlittens eine Fehlerfernmeldeeinrichtung betätigt oder auslöst.In the housing base is ausgestaltend an opening for receiving a pin, in particular pressure pin, which actuates or triggers a remote fault remotely depending on the position of the separation slide.
Die Anschlusskontakte an den Seitenflächen des überspannungsbegrenzenden Elements, insbesondere des Varistors, sind als streifenförmige, aus der Seitenflächenebene hervorspringende Anschlagkanten ausgebildet.The terminal contacts on the side surfaces of the overvoltage limiting element, in particular of the varistor, are formed as strip-shaped, projecting from the side surface plane stop edges.
Die thermisch lösbaren Mittel können sowohl die Gabelzinken mit den Anschlusskontakten an den überspannungsbegrenzenden Elementen als auch den die Gabelzinken verbindenden Abschnitt mit dem äußeren Klemm- oder Steckkontakt verbinden.The thermally releasable means can connect both the forks with the terminals on the overvoltage limiting elements as well as the connecting the forks section with the outer clamping or plug contact.
Die zum Gehäuseboden der Anordnung weisenden Enden der Anschlagkanten bilden dann den Drehpunkt für die Bewegung der Schaltgabel beim Abtrennvorgang.The housing bottom of the arrangement facing ends of the stop edges then form the fulcrum for the movement of the shift fork during the separation process.
Die Schaltgabel kann als ein Stanzteil in massiver Ausführung gefertigt werden, wodurch sich die bereits erwähnten großen Kontaktflächen und die gewünschte hohe mechanische Festigkeit im Sinne einer maximalen Stoßstrombelastbarkeit ergeben.The shift fork can be manufactured as a stamped part in solid design, resulting in the already mentioned large contact surfaces and the desired high mechanical strength in terms of maximum surge current capability.
Die Kraftwirkung der parallel stromdurchflossenen Gabelzinken unterstützt die Festigkeit der vorgesehenen Lötstellen, was wiederum für die Stoßstromfestigkeit von Vorteil ist. Außerdem kann durch diese eintretende Wirkung die Größe der Lötfläche minimiert werden.The force effect of the parallel current-carrying forks supports the strength of the intended solder joints, which in turn is for the surge current strength of advantage. In addition, the size of the soldering surface can be minimized by this entering effect.
Durch die Ausführung der U-förmigen Schaltgabel aus einem massiven Material, welches sich bestimmungsgemäß nicht verbiegt, und das Bewegen der Abtrennvorrichtung über den Abtrennschlitten ist eine gesicherte synchrone Abtrennung mehrerer parallel geschalteter Varistoren realisierbar. Es ist darüber hinaus eine ausgezeichnete thermische Kopplung der Varistoren durch die gemeinsame direkte Verlötung sowie die äußere Verbindung durch den gemeinsamen massiven Abtrennbügel, d.h. die Schaltgabel gegeben.By the execution of the U-shaped shift fork of a solid material, which does not bend as intended, and the movement of the separating device on the separating sled a secure synchronous separation of several varistors connected in parallel can be realized. It is also an excellent thermal coupling of the varistors by the common direct soldering as well as the external connection through the common solid separating bracket, i. given the shift fork.
Die Baubreite des Überspannungsschutzgeräts wird durch die Schaltgabel nur unwesentlich erhöht, so dass von den Abmessungen her normgerechte Gehäuse für das komplette Überspannungsschutzgerät Anwendung finden können.The width of the overvoltage protection device is only slightly increased by the shift fork, so that can be found by the dimensions standard housing for the complete overvoltage protection device application.

Die klauenartigen Abschnitte 9 des Abtrennschlittens 10 erstrecken sich wie ersichtlich vom Gehäuseboden 3 aus nach oben.The claw-
Die Varistoreinheit 1 wiederum erstreckt sich senkrecht zum Boden 3, wobei über eine Längsaußenkante die Varistoreinheit 1 von einem Befestigungsschenkel 15 teilweise umgriffen wird.The
Der Befestigungsschenkel 15 dient der Aufnahme einer beweglichen optischen Anzeigeplatte 16.The
Die bewegliche Anzeigeplatte 16 weist zwei sich nach unten erstreckende seitliche Fortsätze 17 auf, die eine Nut 18 einschließen. Jeweils ein Ende des Gabelzinkens 7 der Schaltgabel 6 greift in die Nut 18 ein, um beim Abtrennvorgang die Position der Anzeigeplatte 16 durch Verschieben und Mitziehen zu verändern. Hierbei ist ein oberer Abschnitt des Befestigungsschenkels 15 frei werdend, der als sogenannte Rotanzeige 19 (Fehleranzeige) dient.The
Die optische Anzeigeplatte 16 besteht bevorzugt aus einem grün eingefärbten Kunststoffmaterial und symbolisiert somit die "Grünanzeige", d.h. den ordnungsgemäßen Zustand. Die Veränderung der Farbposition Grün / Rot ist durch ein nicht gezeigtes Fenster eines nicht dargestellten Außengehäuses erkennbar.The
Im Gehäuseboden 3 ist noch ein an sich bekannter Kodierstift 20 einsetzbar, um eine fehlerhafte Bestückung eines (nicht gezeigten) Basisteils zu verhindern.In the
Die vorgestellte Abtrennvorrichtung besteht somit im Wesentlichen aus einer U-förmigen Schaltgabel, die den elektrischen Kontakt zwischen den Varistoranschlussfahnen und dem äußeren Steckkontakt herstellt.The presented separating device thus consists essentially of a U-shaped shift fork, which establishes the electrical contact between the Varistoranschlussfahnen and the outer plug contact.
Die Verbindung der Varistoranschlussfahnen zur Schaltgabel sowie der Schaltgabel zum Steckkontakt bilden zusammen mit einem niedrigschmelzenden Lot die Abtrennstellen. Der Abtrennschlitten, der im Zwischenraum zwischen Gehäuseboden und Varistoreinheit platziert ist, greift mittels Klauen die äußeren Enden der Schaltgabel. Die Abtrennung erfolgt nach Schmelzen der Lötstellen durch die Federvorspannkraft, deren Kraftvektor zwischen dem Abtrennschlitten und dem Gehäuseboden wirkt. Durch das Auslösen des Abtrennschlittens wird eine Aussparung an der Unterseite des Steckteils freigesetzt, die zur Anhebung eines Druckstifts (nicht gezeigt) und zum Schalten einer Fernmeldeeinrichtung im Unterteil führt. Bei der Öffnung der Abtrennstelle durch den Abtrennschlitten führt die Schaltgabel eine Drehbewegung aus, bei der die unteren Kanten der Varistoranschlussfahnen quasi als Drehachsen wirken. Die über die Varistoranschlussfahnen hinaus ragenden oberen Gabelzinken 7 dienen als Mitnehmer für die optische Anzeigeplatte 16, indem die entsprechenden Gabelzinkenabschnitte in die Nut 18 eingreifen.The connection of the varistor terminal lugs to the shift fork and the shift fork to the plug contact together with a low-melting solder the separation points. The separating sled, in the space between Caseback and varistor unit is placed, engages by means of claws the outer ends of the shift fork. The separation takes place after melting of the solder joints by the spring biasing force whose force vector acts between the separation slide and the housing bottom. By triggering the separation slide a recess on the underside of the male part is released, which leads to the raising of a push pin (not shown) and switching a telecommunications device in the lower part. When the separation point is opened by the separation slide, the shift fork performs a rotary movement in which the lower edges of the varistor connection lugs virtually act as axes of rotation.
