Description
Die Erfindung betrifft einen Schalter, insbesondere einen Hochleistungsschalter, mit einem Kontaktelement und einer Kontaktfläche, entlang dieser das Kontaktelement in mindestens zwei Positionen verschiebbar ist, wobei in einer ersten Position des Kontaktelementes ein erster Schaltzustand und in einer zweiten Position des Kontaktelementes ein zweiter Schaltzustand erreichbar ist, und einem Antrieb zum Bewegen des Kontaktelementes zwischen der ersten und der zweiten Position.The invention relates to a switch, in particular a high-power switch, with a contact element and a contact surface along which the contact element is displaceable in at least two positions, wherein in a first position of the contact element, a first switching state and in a second position of the contact element, a second switching state is achievable , and a drive for moving the contact element between the first and the second position.
Es ist bekannt, dass eine elektrisch leitende Verbindung zwischen zwei Stromkreisen geschaltet werden kann. Ein Schalter ist aus der Patentschrift
Nachteiligerweise hat sich gezeigt, dass der Aufbau eines derartigen Schalters komplex und aufwendig ist. Da die Schaltverbindung zwischen dem Schaltelement und dem entsprechenden Element auf der Platine über Luft erfolgt, können dadurch keine hohen Ströme geleitet werden. Außerdem hat sich gezeigt, dass eine kontaktlose Verbindung zwischen dem Schaltelement und dem jeweiligen Element auf der Platine unstabil sein kann. Zudem können die Schaltzustände des Schalters ausschließlich stromgespeist realisiert werden.Disadvantageously, it has been found that the structure of such a switch is complex and expensive. Since the switching connection between the switching element and the corresponding element takes place on the board via air, no high currents can be passed through it. In addition, it has been found that a contactless connection between the switching element and the respective element on the board can be unstable. In addition, the switching states of the switch can be realized exclusively powered.
Es ist Aufgabe der vorliegenden Erfindung, einen Schalter zu schaffen, bei dem die genannten Nachteile vermieden werden, insbesondere einen Schalter bereitzustellen, der eine einfache Konstruktion aufweist, wobei, ohne den Schalter zu bestromen, stabile Schaltzustände realisierbar sind.It is an object of the present invention to provide a switch in which the disadvantages mentioned are avoided, in particular to provide a switch which has a simple construction, wherein, without energizing the switch, stable switching states can be realized.
Die Erfindung wird mit den Merkmalen des Anspruchs 1 gelöst. In den abhängigen Patentansprüchen sind mögliche Ausführungsformen beschrieben.The invention is solved with the features of claim 1. In the dependent claims possible embodiments are described.
Erfindungsgemäß ist vorgesehen, dass das Kontaktelement und die Kontaktfläche Magnetelemente aufweisen, so dass das Kontaktelement in der ersten und in der zweiten Position zuverlässig an der Kontaktfläche aufliegt, wodurch mindestens zwei stabile Schaltzustände stromlos realisierbar sind. Durch eine Integration von Magnetelementen sowohl am Kontaktelement als auch an der Kontaktfläche können stabile Schaltzustände des Schalters erzielt werden, ohne dass der Schalter bestromt wird. Das bedeutet, dass allein durch die wirkenden Magnetkräfte das verschiebbare Kontaktelement in seiner jeweiligen Position zuverlässig an der Kontaktfläche gehalten wird. Die Magnetelemente lassen somit einen hohen Kontaktdruck zwischen dem Kontaktelement und der Kontaktfläche entstehen. Zudem zeichnet sich der erfindungsgemäße Schalter durch einen geringen elektrischen Kontaktwiderstand aus, wodurch hohe Ströme geschaltet werden können. Das bedeutet, dass der Schalter eine hohe Strombelastbarkeit aufweist, wobei gleichzeitig die jeweiligen Schaltzustände sicher gehalten werden können, ohne hierfür Energie zu benötigen.According to the invention, it is provided that the contact element and the contact surface have magnetic elements, so that the contact element reliably rests on the contact surface in the first and in the second position, whereby at least two stable switching states can be realized without current. By integrating magnetic elements both on the contact element and on the contact surface stable switching states of the switch can be achieved without the switch is energized. This means that solely by the acting magnetic forces, the displaceable contact element is reliably held in its respective position on the contact surface. The magnetic elements thus allow a high contact pressure between the contact element and the contact surface arise. In addition, the switch according to the invention is characterized by a low electrical contact resistance, whereby high currents can be switched. This means that the switch has a high current carrying capacity, wherein at the same time the respective switching states can be kept safe without requiring energy for this.
Erfindungsgemäß ist vorgesehen, dass die Kontaktfläche mindestens zwei Kontaktplatten aufweist, die insbesondere beabstandet zu einander angeordnet sind. In einem möglichen Schaltzustand weist das Kontaktelement eine erste Position auf, in der es lediglich auf einer Kontaktplatte aufliegt und kontaktlos zur benachbarten Kontaktplatte steht. In einem zweiten Schaltzustand kann das Kontaktelement eine zweite Position innehaben, bei der es beide Kontaktplatten berührt.According to the invention it is provided that the contact surface has at least two contact plates, which are arranged in particular spaced from each other. In a possible switching state, the contact element has a first position, in which it rests only on a contact plate and is in contactless contact with the adjacent contact plate. In a second switching state, the contact element may have a second position, in which it touches both contact plates.
In einer bevorzugten Ausführungsform der vorliegenden Erfindung weist die Kontaktfläche drei Kontaktplatten auf, wobei eine erste äußere Kontaktplatte, eine zweite äußere Kontaktplatte jeweils mit einer dritten inneren Kontaktplatte einen Stromkreis schließen können, wenn ein Kontaktelement sie entsprechend verbindet: die erste äußere Kontaktplatte mit der dritten inneren Kontaktplatte oder die zweite äußere Kontaktplatte mit der dritten inneren Kontaktplatte.In a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the contact surface has three contact plates, wherein a first outer contact plate, a second outer contact plate each with a third inner contact plate can close a circuit when a contact element connects them accordingly: the first outer contact plate with the third inner Contact plate or the second outer contact plate with the third inner contact plate.

Südpol des Permanentmagneten im Kontaktelement bei Berührung der Kontaktfläche an einem Südpol bzw. Nordpol eines der in der Kontaktfläche integrierten Permanentmagneten anliegt.Advantageously, the magnetic elements integrated in the contact plates and the contact element are designed as permanent magnets, which can be arranged in particular in such a double row that the north pole or south pole of the permanent magnet in the contact element when touching the contact surface at a south pole or north pole of one of the integrated permanent magnets in the contact surface is applied.

In einer bevorzugten Ausführungsform der Erfindung kontaktiert das Magnetelement des Kontaktelementes in jedem Schaltzustand des Schalters das zugeordnete Magnetelement einer der Kontaktplatten.According to the invention, the contact element and the contact plates each have at least one magnetic element, wherein the magnetic element of the contact element is assigned to the magnetic element of one of the contact plates. In a preferred embodiment of the invention, the magnetic element of the contact element contacts the associated magnetic element of one of the contact plates in each switching state of the switch.
Vorteilhafterweise ist vorgesehen, dass die Magnetelemente des Kontaktelementes und die Magnetelemente der Kontaktplatten derart zueinander angeordnet sind, dass das Kontaktelement in jedem stabilen Schaltzustand des Schalters an mindestens einer der Kontaktplatten durch die Anziehungskraft der Magnetelemente sicher gehalten ist. Auf diese Weise wird gewährleistet, dass die Stromkreise, die an den Kontaktplatten enden, durch das Kontaktelement zuverlässig geschlossen werden. Durch das direkte Anliegen des Kontaktelementes an den Kontaktplatten wird außerdem erreicht, dass Ströme hoher Stärke durch eine geschlossene Schaltung geleitet werden können. Die Kontaktfläche und das Kontaktelement können derart geometrisch und materialtechnisch dimensioniert werden, dass elektrische Ströme zwischen 50A und 400A, insbesondere zwischen 100A und 200A schaltbar sind. Die Dicke des Kontaktelementes und der Kontaktplatten kann dabei von 2 bis 10 mm variieren.Advantageously, it is provided that the magnetic elements of the contact element and the magnetic elements of the contact plates are arranged to each other such that the contact element is securely held in each stable switching state of the switch on at least one of the contact plates by the attractive force of the magnetic elements. To this This ensures that the circuits that terminate at the contact plates are reliably closed by the contact element. Due to the direct contact of the contact element on the contact plates is also achieved that high-intensity currents can be passed through a closed circuit. The contact surface and the contact element can be dimensioned geometrically and material-technically so that electrical currents between 50A and 400A, in particular between 100A and 200A are switchable. The thickness of the contact element and the contact plates can vary from 2 to 10 mm.
Vorteilhafterweise wird das Kontaktelement über einen Antrieb bewegt. Der Antrieb kann beispielsweise ein Spindelantrieb, ein Induktionsantrieb, ein Elektromotor, ein Piezomotor, ein Linearmotor oder ein Magnetschalter sein. In einem bevorzugten Ausführungsbeispiel weist der Antrieb ein Verbindungselement auf, das am Kontaktelement angeordnet ist und somit die Wirkverbindung zwischen dem Antrieb und dem Kontaktelement herstellt, um durch den Antrieb das Kontaktelement zu bewegen.Advantageously, the contact element is moved by a drive. The drive can be, for example, a spindle drive, an induction drive, an electric motor, a piezomotor, a linear motor or a magnetic switch. In a preferred embodiment, the drive has a connecting element which is arranged on the contact element and thus produces the operative connection between the drive and the contact element in order to move the contact element by the drive.
In einer die Erfindung verbessernden Maßnahme ist eine Schutzschaltung vorgesehen, um bei einem Wechsel zwischen den Schaltzuständen Spannungsspitzen abzuleiten. Insbesondere weist die Schutzschaltung einen Metall-Oxid-Halbleiter-Feldeffekttransistor auf, der als ein spannungsgesteuerter Widerstand arbeitet. Wenn Strom führende Schaltkontakte geöffnet, bzw. geschlossen werden, können elektrische Überspannungen entstehen, dabei kann ein Teil des Kontaktwerkstoffes durch Überhitzung, Verschmelzung oder Verbrennung beschädigt werden. Gemäß der vorliegenden Erfindung ist die Schutzschaltung dazu vorgesehen, um unerwünschte Effekte solcher Art zu verhindern, insbesondere indem überflüssige Spannungsspitzen abgeleitet werden.In a measure improving the invention, a protective circuit is provided in order to derive voltage peaks when switching between the switching states. In particular, the protection circuit comprises a metal-oxide-semiconductor field-effect transistor operating as a voltage-controlled resistor. If current-conducting switch contacts are opened or closed, electrical overvoltages can occur, whereby a part of the contact material can be damaged by overheating, fusion or combustion. According to the present invention, the protection circuit is provided to prevent unwanted effects of this kind, in particular by dissipating unnecessary voltage spikes.
In den Schalterkontakten müssen hohe elektrische Ströme in kurzer Zeit unterbrochen werden, dazu müssen die Kontaktwerkstoffe unter Anderem hohe elektrische Leitfähigkeit und Wärmeleitfähigkeit aufweisen. Erfindungsgemäß können das Kontaktelement und die Kontaktfläche des Schalters aus Kupfer oder Nickel gefertigt sein. Vorteilhafterweise erfolgt die Schließung des Schaltkontaktes durch ein unmittelbares Anliegen des Kontaktelementes an mindestens eine der Kontaktplatten, was unter Anderem die Entstehung von Schaltlichtbögen verhindert.In the switch contacts high electrical currents must be interrupted in a short time, this must have the contact materials, among other things, high electrical conductivity and thermal conductivity. According to the invention, the contact element and the contact surface of the switch can be made of copper or nickel. Advantageously, the closure of the switching contact is effected by a direct contact of the contact element to at least one of the contact plates, which among other things prevents the formation of switching arcs.
Es kann zweckmäßigerweise vorgesehen sein, dass der Antrieb und/oder das Kontaktelement und/oder die Kontaktfläche und/oder die Schutzschaltung an einer Trägerplatine angeordnet sind. Hierdurch wird eine einfache und kompakte Konstruktion des Schalters erzielt.It can be expediently provided that the drive and / or the contact element and / or the contact surface and / or the protective circuit are arranged on a carrier board. As a result, a simple and compact construction of the switch is achieved.
In einer besonderen Ausführungsform ist jeder stabile Schaltzustand durch eine vom Antrieb ausgelöste Kraft lösbar. Die Kraft des Antriebs kann beispielsweise senkrecht zur Anziehungskraft der Magnetelemente wirken und parallel zur geometrischen Erstreckung der Platine gerichtet sein, auf der die einzelnen Bauelemente des Schalters angeordnet sind. Die Stärke magnetischer Anziehungskräfte ist in Richtung vom Pol zu Pol besonders hoch. Hierbei hat sich vorteilhafterweise gezeigt, dass nur eine geringe Kraft des Antriebes, die senkrecht zur Anziehungskraft der Magnetelemente gerichtet ist, notwendig ist, um eine Verschiebung des Kontaktelementes aus einem ersten Schaltzustand in einen zweiten Schaltzustand zu bewirken. Somit kann der Antrieb mit einer relativ geringen Leistung betrieben werden, um das Kontaktelement zwischen seinen möglichen Positionen zu bewegen. Zudem können hierdurch schnelle Umschaltungen in den jeweiligen Schaltzustand erreicht werden. Das bedeutet, dass der erfindungsgemäße Schalter sich durch geringe Schaltzeiten auszeichnet.In a particular embodiment, each stable switching state can be released by a force triggered by the drive. The force of the drive may, for example, act perpendicular to the force of attraction of the magnetic elements and be directed parallel to the geometric extent of the board on which the individual components of the switch are arranged. The strength of magnetic attractions is particularly high in the direction from pole to pole. It has advantageously been shown that only a small force of the drive, which is directed perpendicular to the attraction of the magnetic elements, is necessary to effect a displacement of the contact element from a first switching state to a second switching state. Thus, the drive can be operated at a relatively low power to move the contact element between its possible positions. In addition, this can be achieved by switching quickly into the respective switching state. This means that the switch according to the invention is characterized by short switching times.

Furthermore, a detection unit may be provided to register the position of the contact element, wherein the detection unit may comprise an optical, a Hall or a touch sensor. Detection unit and control unit are preferably in data communication.
Vorzugsweise liegt in jedem stabilen Schaltzustand das Magnetelement der Kontaktfläche genau unterhalb des Magnetelementes des Kontaktelementes. Das bedeutet, dass das Magnetelement der Kontaktfläche sich mit dem Magnetelement des Kontaktelementes berühren. In einer möglichen Ausführungsform können drei stabile Schaltzustände realisiert werden, wobei eine erste äußere Kontaktplatte, eine zweite äußere Kontaktplatte und eine dritte Kontaktplatte vorgesehen sind, die zwischen der ersten und der zweiten Kontaktplatte liegt. Die erste und die zweite Kontaktplatte weisen eine erste Anzahl an Magnetelementen auf. Die dritte Kontaktplatte kann eine zweite Anzahl an Magnetelementen aufweisen, die doppelt so groß ist als die erste Anzahl. Dabei kann das Kontaktelement die zweite Anzahl von Magnetelementen aufweisen. Beispielsweise können die äußeren Kontaktplatten jeweils zwei integrierte Magnetelemente aufweisen, wobei die dritte Kontaktplatte und das Kontaktelement jeweils vier Magnetelemente umfassen. Es hat sich vorteilhafterweise gezeigt, dass durch eine derartige nummerische Auswahl an Magnetelementen eine sichere und energielose Einhaltung des jeweiligen Schaltzustandes leicht erzielbar ist.Preferably, in each stable switching state, the magnetic element of the contact surface lies just below the magnetic element of the contact element. This means that the magnetic element of the contact surface are in contact with the magnetic element of the contact element. In one possible embodiment, three stable switching states can be realized, wherein a first outer contact plate, a second outer contact plate and a third contact plate are provided, which lies between the first and the second contact plate. The first and second contact plates have a first number of magnetic elements. The third contact plate may have a second number of magnetic elements that is twice as large as the first number. In this case, the contact element may have the second number of magnetic elements. For example, the outer contact plates may each have two integrated magnetic elements, wherein the third contact plate and the contact element each comprise four magnetic elements. It has advantageously been shown that a secure and energy-free maintenance of the respective switching state can be easily achieved by such a numerical selection of magnetic elements.
Ferner kann vorgesehen sein, dass sich das Kontaktelement in einem ersten Schaltzustand in einer ersten Position befindet, bei der das Kontaktelement die erste und die dritte innere Kontaktplatte kontaktiert. In dem ersten Schaltzustand kann ein Stromkreis über das Kontaktelement geschlossen werden, der durch die erste äußere und dritte innere Kontaktplatte verläuft. In einem zweiten Schaltzustand befindet sich das Kontaktelement in einer zweiten Position, bei der das Kontaktelement die zweite und die dritte Kontaktplatte kontaktiert. In diesem Schaltzustand kann das Kontaktelement einen Stromkreis schließen, der durch die zweite äußere und dritte innere Kontaktplatte verläuft. In dem ersten und zweiten Schaltzustand erfordert die Schaltung keine Stromspeisung des Kontaktelementes. In einem dritten Schaltzustand befindet sich das Kontaktelement in einer dritten Position, bei der das Kontaktelement auf der dritten Kontaktplatte aufliegt, ohne dass ein Kontakt zu der ersten und der zweiten Kontaktplatte besteht. Dabei ist es denkbar, dass das Kontaktelement mit Strom gespeist wird, um einen Strom an einen Verbraucher durch die dritte innere Kontaktplatte leiten zu können. Alternativ kann der dritte Schaltzustand ebenfalls stromlos realisiert sein.Furthermore, it can be provided that the contact element is in a first switching state in a first position, in which the contact element contacts the first and the third inner contact plate. In the first switching state, a circuit can be closed via the contact element, which runs through the first outer and third inner contact plate. In a second switching state, the contact element is in a second position, in which the contact element contacts the second and the third contact plate. In this switching state, the contact element can close a circuit which extends through the second outer and third inner contact plate. In the first and second switching state, the circuit requires no power supply of the contact element. In a third switching state, the contact element is in a third position, in which the contact element rests on the third contact plate, without being in contact with the first and the second contact plate. It is conceivable that the contact element is supplied with power to conduct a current to a consumer through the third inner contact plate can. Alternatively, the third switching state can also be realized without current.
Vorteilhafterweise kann vorgesehen sein, dass zumindest eine der zueinander zugewandten Flächen des Kontaktelementes und der Kontaktfläche eine Beschichtung aufweisen, wodurch ein geringer Reibungskoeffizient zwischen dem Kontaktelement und der Kontaktfläche erzielbar ist. Nach der Überwindung der Reibung zwischen dem Kontaktelement und der Kontaktfläche kann eine leichte Verschiebbarkeit des Kontaktelementes entlang der Kontaktfläche erreicht werden.Advantageously, it can be provided that at least one of the mutually facing surfaces of the contact element and the contact surface have a coating, whereby a low coefficient of friction between the contact element and the contact surface can be achieved. After overcoming the friction between the contact element and the contact surface, a slight displaceability of the contact element along the contact surface can be achieved.
