Description
- The present invention relates to a fused interlocked socket with rotary disconnect switch.
- As is known, an interlocked socket incorporates a locking device, of the mechanical or electrical type, which is connected to a disconnection system, which does not allow the insertion or extraction of the plug when voltage is present.
- Interlocked sockets can be provided with protective fuses in order to ensure the safety of operators and the integrity of the devices and circuits connected thereto.
- The most commonly used fuses, especially in modular devices mounted on DIN rails, are cylindrical, with a size of 10.3 x 38 mm.
- The particularity of those fuses is their cylindrical shape, which allows to extract the fuse, reducing the force applied by the forked contacts that retain the two ends of the fuse, and at the same time moves the two contacts into the disconnection position.
- There are fuse holders that disconnect a single element and others that disconnect three elements, with the same rotary motion.
- The fuses are normally located within the socket body and can be accessed after opening a door, which is transparent or opaque.
- Once the door has been opened, access to the fuse is gained by opening the fuse holder with a rotary operation; at this point the fuse is free from the contacts, is extracted from the fuse holder and is tested to understand whether it actually fused.
- The door is opened almost always with buttons or sliders, which do not ensure that an ill-intentioned individual cannot access the fuses.
- In some cases, the door is locked by self-tapping screws, which act as a deterrent against vandalism.
- To replace a fuse, or even just to test it, it is necessary to extract it with one's fingers from the tilting member after opening it.
- This operation is not always easy and in any case entails that the user inserts his fingers in a recess that is very close to electrical contacts.
- The operations of opening the door, opening the fuse holder, extracting the various fuses, testing and repositioning the intact fuses or replacing them require some time and are tedious.
-
GB-2385719 - The aim of the present invention is to provide a fused interlocked socket that overcomes the drawbacks of the cited prior art.
- Within the scope of this aim, an object of the invention is to provide an interlocked socket in which the operation of testing and optional replacement of a fuse is quicker and safer than in conventional devices.
- Another object of the present invention is to provide an interlocked socket which, by virtue of its particular constructive characteristics, is capable of giving the greatest assurances of reliability and safety in use.
- This aim and these and other objects, that will become better apparent hereinafter, are achieved by a fused interlocked socket with rotary disconnect switch, comprising a front body adapted to contain a contact holder body that is wired to a socket that is associated to said front body, said socket comprising locking means that prevents the insertion and the disconnection of a plug when electric voltage is present in the system, said locking means being driven by a control knob; characterized in that said control knob is mounted on a door that is hinged to said front body and that comprises a fuse holder body in its interior.
- Further characteristics and advantages will become better apparent from the description of preferred but not exclusive embodiments, illustrated by way of non-limiting example in the accompanying drawings, wherein:
-
Figure 1 is an exploded perspective view of the fused interlocked socket with rotary disconnect switch, according to the present invention; -
Figure 2 is a front perspective view of the interlocked socket in the condition in which the fuse holder door is closed and without the plug inserted; -
Figure 3 is a perspective view showing the initial opening of the fuse holder door by means of a screwdriver; -
Figure 4 is a perspective view of the socket with the fuse holder door fully open, in the condition for testing and optional replacement of the fuses; -
Figure 5 is an enlarged-scale perspective view of the control member of the fuse holder door. - With reference to the cited figures, the interlocked socket according to the invention, generally designated by the reference numeral 1, comprises a
front body 2, which is adapted to be applied to a control panel, not shown in the figures, or to another wall-mounted support where one wishes to apply the interlocked socket. - The
front body 2 contains a contact holder body 4, which is wired to thesocket 5 associated with thefront body 2. - The
socket 5 has a locking means, which prevent the insertion and disconnection of aplug 6 when electric voltage is present in the system, in a per se known manner. - The locking means is actuated by a
control knob 7 by a lever system. - The
control knob 7 is mounted on adoor 8, which is hinged to thefront body 2 and has the dual function of contact holder body protection door and of fuse holder. - A
fuse holder body 9 is provided on the internal surface of thedoor 8 and is constituted by a plurality ofcylindrical seats 10, each of which is adapted to retain afuse 12. - In the operating condition of the socket, the
fuses 12 contained in thecylindrical seats 10 of thefuse holder 9 have their ends engaged by forkedcontacts 11. - A
control member 13 locks thedoor 8 in the closed position. Thedoor 8 can be opened by means of a tool, for example ascrewdriver 14, which can be inserted in anotch 15 provided in thecontrol member 13. - The
control member 13 has alocking tooth 16, which engages anabutting element 40 provided in thefront body 2, in order to lock thedoor 8 in the closed position. Thecontrol member 13 also has and a cam-shaped portion 17 which engages a corresponding inclined plane of thefront body 2, in order to open the door when thecontrol body 13 is turned. - The
control body 13 also has areturn spring 18. - The
door 8 preferably hasgrip tabs 19, which facilitate its grip in order to lift it. - The operation of the interlocked socket according to the present invention is as follows.
- After placing the
control knob 7 in the "0" position (no electric voltage in the system), thecontrol member 13 is turned by means of a tool releasing thedoor 8 from thefront 2 and partially lifting the door by virtue of the interaction of the cam-shaped portion 17 of the control member with the inclined plane of thefront body 2. This operation is shown schematically inFigure 3 . - The rotation of the
control member 13 is sufficient to extract thefuses 12 from thecorresponding contacts 11 that contained them, thus disconnecting the line. - By lifting the
door 8 completely, thefuses 12 are made available for replacement and can be tested without having to be extracted from theseats 10, as shown inFigure 4 . - Only the fuse that tripped is extracted and replaced with a new fuse.
- Once the fuse has been replaced, the
door 8 is closed by pressing the region of thecontrol member 13. By action of thereturn spring 18, thecontrol member 13 has moved into the closed position and at thetooth 40 on thefront 2. - With this system it is no longer necessary to close the
door 8, which is locked by snap action by virtue of thecontrol member 13. - In practice it has been found that the invention achieves the intended aim and objects, an interlocked socket having been provided in which the fuse holder is integrated in the closure door that protects the fuses.
- The tilting door for access to the fuses is characterized by a control member to which multiple tasks are entrusted. The first one is to ensure the IP67 degree of protection between the door and the front body by virtue of the engagement tooth.
- Secondly, when the door is closed and the control knob is in the "0" position and one wishes to access the fuses, this is made possible only by means of a tool, for example a screwdriver.
