Definitions

  • the invention relates to an electromagnetic switch for a starting device and a method for operating the electromagnetic switch.
  • the document FR2861891 shows a switch according to the preamble of claim 1.
  • the proposed solutions seek to create a scraping motion between the two contact surfaces between the contact surfaces of the contacts and the surface of the contact bridge, thereby removing soils and other by the switching movement.

  • FIGS. 19a and 19b a further contact bridge 184 is shown in a plan view and a sectional view.
  • the constrictions for reducing the cross section or reducing the flexural rigidity of the contact bridge 184 need not, as in accordance with FIG. 18 represented, are introduced at the outer contour. It can also recesses in the preferably rectangular shaped contact bridge 184 are introduced. In FIG. 19 For example, two circular recesses 353 are shown, which reduce the cross section.
  • the recesses may have any shape, for. B. be executed rectangular or rounded.
  • a contact bridge 184 is shown in longitudinal section.
  • This contact plate in turn has a central areal section 270 and two outer areal sections 273 and 276.
  • the central sheet-like section 270 in turn has a hole 226, as in the previous embodiments for Contact bridges 184 also have.
  • This contact bridge 184 consists of several layers.
  • a first layer is a carrier layer 400 and a second layer attached to this carrier layer 400 is a contact layer 403.
  • the properties are optimized by forming the contact bridge 184 of multiple layers.
  • the first layer namely the carrier layer 400 , favorable features as a holding, stability and elasticity giving element.
  • the contact layer 403 has optimized properties with regard to the contact between contact bridge 184 and contact 180 or 181. It is envisaged that the carrier layer 400 is made of a copper or a silver alloy or steel or bronze or brass.
  • the contact layer 403 is provided to be made of a copper, tin, gold or silver alloy or a metal-metal oxide composite consists
  • contacts 180 and 183 of the contact pins 151 and 150 should generally apply that these also consist of electro-copper and have a hardness between 100 and 130 HV10.
  • edges 279 and 320 With respect to the edges 279 and 320, it is provided that this has a radius of ⁇ 0.3 mm. This results in a "chisel effect" so that edges 279 and 320, respectively, remove interfering layers at the opposite contact. Contacting properties are thereby considerably improved.
  • the area of the edges 279 and 320 there is preferably an area-wise or linearly very small cohesive connection due to Einscgurichtbögen. By tearing open these cohesive connections, the respective edge 279 or 320 experiences an ever new sharpening, whereby even after repeated switching characteristics or point contact between edge and mating contact remains edges 279 and 320 moreover have the advantage that ice layers formed by possible atmospheric moisture in the switch are broken on the contacts 180 or 181.
  • the corresponding metal sheet preferably has a thickness of between 1 and 4 mm.
  • a method for switching the electromagnetic switch 16 wherein it has two contacts 180 and 181, which are connected by a movable contact bridge 184.
  • a scraping movement between the contact bridge 184 and the contact surface 300 of the contact 181 or 180 acts. Either slides the contact bridge with its surface in the form of an edge 279 on the contact surface 300 of Contact 180 or 181, or the contact surface 300 of the contact 180 or 181 with its surface shape of an edge 320 slides over the contact bridge 184.
  • a possible cohesive connection between the contact bridge 184 and the contacts 180 and 181 should in the case of release by a thrust load in the cohesive connection (welding) are solved.
  • the edge 279 serves to scrape on the surface of the contacts 180 and 181, thereby creating friction and ultimately converting energy.
  • the energy to be converted is the kinetic energy of the contact bridge 184 and the moving during the switching operation parts, such as the switching pin 177, the snap sleeve 241, compression spring 238, guide collar 232, collar 223.
  • This kinetic energy is generated by the friction of the contact bridge 184 on the contacts 180 and 181 reduce the kinetic energy so far that a rebound of the contact bridge 184 substantially no longer occurs and thereby the tendency to form arcs between the contacts 180 and 181 and the contact bridge 184 is at least greatly reduced.
  • FIG. 21 shows a side or sectional view of the contact bridge 184, which makes an electrical connection with the contact 180 of the bolt 151.
  • the contact 180 or its contact surface 300 has a corrugation which is an annular corrugation 310.
  • This contact surface 300 or its corrugation is such that, in the cross-sectional view results in a wavy contour.
  • This corrugated contour can be, for example, a sinusoidal profile or a similar profile with wave shape, ie one with "valleys and mountains", see also FIG. 6 .
  • the corrugation shown here is an annular corrugation 310, ie the corrugated contour 303 or its "peaks and valleys" are in the example oriented coaxially about the center line 306 of the bolt 151. It is envisaged that the contact bridge 184 slides or rubs along an edge 420 of the wave-shaped contour 303 when switching or contacting with its outer flat section 276.
  • FIG 22A a diagram is shown in which, depending on a constriction ratio and a lever arm ratio, the bending stress in the constriction region is shown.
  • the constriction area is the area of the contact bridge 184, which corresponds to the in FIG. 5 shown waisted cross-section 293 corresponds. In principle, this applies to all cross-section reduced contact bridges 184, as for example in the FIGS. 16 to 19 is shown.
  • the three curves K25, K50 and K75 shown there represent different parameters.
  • the curve K25 shows a lever arm ratio of 25%
  • K50 shows a lever arm ratio of 50%
  • K75 shows a lever arm ratio of 75%.
  • the necking ratio V is taken into account. V is the quotient of the width BE to the width B184. In order to avoid or prevent bouncing and to convert it into friction, sliding movement, it is provided that the bending stress S in the cross section 293 is greater than 20 N / mm 2. Furthermore, the bending stress S should be less than 100N / mm 2. It is desirable for the necking ratio V to be less than or equal to 75%, preferably greater than 25%. A ratio of between 70% and 35% has proven to be particularly favorable.
