- Each torsion spring 31, 32 comprises a first strand 35, 36 bearing against a stopper 39 of the support lever and a second strand 41, 42 acting on one of said contact arms 15, 19.
- the second strand 41, 42 each torsion spring 31, 32 cooperates with a stop 45, 46 of the contact arm 15, 19 on which said torsion spring acts.

- the turns of the torsion springs 31, 32 surrounding the axis of rotation of said springs are offset relative to the shaft 21. In this way, in addition to increasing the contact pressure force and reducing the dimensions of the means of contact pressure 31, 32, the size of the control mechanism at the shaft 21 is reduced. Given the complexity of the control mechanism concerning the articulations around the shaft 21, this offset of the turns of the torsion springs 31, 32 with respect to the shaft 21 makes it possible to simplify said control mechanism and to facilitate its assembly.
- the first strands 35, 36 of the torsion springs 31, 32 are connected together to form a single elastic assembly incorporating said torsion springs.
- the first strand 35, 36 of each torsion spring 31, 32 has a length greater than the length of the second strand 41, 42 of said torsion spring. More specifically, the length of the first strand 35, 36 is greater than at least twice the length of the second strand 41, 42. This arrangement makes it possible in particular to facilitate the assembly of the control mechanism, notably thanks to the length of the strands which allows the bending necessary for mounting on the axes of the springs.
- the control mechanism of the circuit breaker can be such as that described in the European patent application EP0295158 .
- control mechanism comprises transmission means arranged between the lever 9 and the contact arms 15, 19, or more precisely between said lever and the support lever 23. These transmission means make it possible to move the support lever 23 between the open position and the closed position of the movable contacts 13, 17.
- a trip lever 53 coupled to tripping means makes it possible to detect the presence of an electrical fault and to act on the control mechanism to open the contacts of the circuit breaker.
- the triggering means include an electromagnetic release 55 and a thermal release, in this case a bimetallic strip 57.
- the release lever 53 is pivotally mounted on an axis 59 carried by the support lever 23, with a predetermined offset with respect to the pivot 21.
- the release lever 53 is designed to actuate the displacement of the contact arms 15, 19 in the open position by causing the breaking of a breakable mechanical link 61 of the transmission means (FIG. figures 1 and 2 ).
- the transmission means include a transmission rod 51 coupled to an internal base of the lever to form a toggle joint whose articulation is eccentric with respect to a pivot axis 63 of said joystick.
- the breakable mechanical link 61 is formed between the transmission rod 51 and the support lever 23. In the locked position, the breakable mechanical link 61 allows the manual control of the control mechanism by means of the lever 9.
- the movement of the lever triggering 53 to a triggered position under the action of the trigger 55 causes the momentary break of the mechanical link 61, causing the automatic triggering of the control mechanism, independently of the lever 9.
- the release lever 53 is associated with a spring of recall (not shown) for ensuring the automatic restoration of the mechanical link 61 when the lever 9 is actuated to the open position, following a triggering of the fault control mechanism.
- the breakable mechanical link 61 comprises a catch hook 65 pivotally mounted on an axis 67 of the support lever 23. At the opposite of the axis 67, the hook spike 69 cooperates in the locked position of the link 61 with a notch 71 located on the upper arm of the trip lever 53.
- the transmission rod 51 is coupled to the hook 65 at a hinge point may move when triggered in a light lever support 23. This light is blind or open, and is shaped in a circular sector centered on the axis 67.
- the hinge point is located between the axis 67 and the beak 69 of the hook hook.
- the breakable mechanical link 61 constitutes a reduction stage in the kinematic chain of the control mechanism, allowing a reduction of the triggering force from the magnetothermal release.
- the bimetallic strip 57 of the thermal actuator cooperates with the trip lever 53 by means of a rotary slide valve 81 with unidirectional transmission.
- the slide 81 is formed by a bent lever having one end freely coupled to the lower arm of the release lever 53 at a hinge point 83.
- the curved intermediate portion of the transmission lever is supported on a boss 85 of the release lever 53 of in order to drive the latter to the triggered position during the deflection to the right of the bimetallic strip 51 in the event of circulation of a current of overload in the pole.
- the slide 81 constitutes a rigid kinematic link between the bimetallic strip 57 and the trip lever 53.
- the hinge point 83 is disposed between the boss 85 and the pivot axis 21 of the trip lever 53.
- the purpose of this arrangement of the pivot axis 83 closest to the pivot axis 21 is to minimize the displacement of the axis 83 along an arc of a circle centered on the axis 21, see FIG. make it null, when the magnetic release 55 propels the support lever 23.
- the end 87 of the slide 81 opposite the hinge point 83 is capable of abutting against a protuberance of the housing, with rupture of the kinematic connection with the release lever 53.
- the support lever 23 can pivot about the pivot 21 in the trigometric direction, and the intermediate zone of the slide 81 is spaced from the boss 85.
- the pivot point 83 of the slide 81 may well heard to be confused with the pivot axis 21 of the trip lever 53.

Le circuit de coupure de phase comporte un contact mobile de phase 13 porté par une première extrémité d'un bras de contact 15. De la même façon, le circuit de coupure de neutre comporte un contact mobile de neutre 17 porté par une première extrémité d'un autre bras de contact 19.

Ce mécanisme de commande est commun au contact mobile de phase 13 et au contact mobile de neutre 17. Le pivot 21 d'articulation des bras de contact 15, 19 est porté par un levier support 23 (
Le montage à pivotement du levier support 23 sur le boîtier 3 permet le déplacement des bras de contact 15, 19 entre une position d'ouverture des contacts mobiles 13, 17 et une position de fermeture desdits contacts mobiles. Le levier support 23 porte des butées susceptibles de coopérer avec les bras de contact 15, 19 pour les entraîner en rotation autour de l'arbre 21 vers la position de fermeture des contacts mobiles 13, 17. Un ressort 90 monté entre boîtier et le levier support 23 permet de solliciter le levier support 23 en rotation autour de l'arbre 21 vers la position d'ouverture des contacts mobiles 13, 17.The pivotal mounting of the support lever 23 on the

Chacun des bras de contact 15, 19 comportent un écran 26 qui permet d'éviter que des particules générées par l'arc électrique ne viennent s'immiscer dans le mécanisme de commande.

Le mécanisme de commande comporte des moyens de pression de contact agissant sur les bras de contact 15, 19 pour exercer une force de pression sur lesdits bras de contact et pour contraindre lesdits bras de contact dans la position de fermeture des contacts mobiles 13, 17. Les moyens de pression de contact comportent deux ressorts de torsion 31, 32 agissant respectivement sur le bras de contact 15 portant le contact mobile de phase 13 et sur le bras de contact 19 portant le contact mobile de neutre 17.

Cette seconde extrémité des bras de contact 15, 19 est en l'occurrence opposée par rapport à la première extrémité desdits bras portant les contacts mobiles 13, 17. Ce positionnement des ressorts 31, 32 et de leurs axes de rotation respectifs permet de démultiplier la force exercée par lesdits ressorts sur les bras de contact 15, 19 et donc sur les contacts mobiles 13, 17 portés par lesdits bras de contact. Ce positionnement des ressorts 31, 32, et notamment le positionnement de leurs axes de rotation respectifs, permet également de réduire leurs dimensions.The control mechanism comprises contact pressure means acting on the
Plus précisément, chaque ressort de torsion 31, 32 est disposé entre le bras de contact 15, 19 sur lequel ledit ressort de torsion agit et le levier support 23. De cette façon, les ressorts de torsion 31, 32 sont dimensionnés pour exercer une pression de fermeture des contacts mobiles 13, 17 permettant un pivotement limité des bras de contact 15, 19 par rapport au levier support, en fonction des l'état d'usure desdits contacts. Les ressorts de torsion 31, 32 ne sont pas dimensionnés pour faire pivoter les bras de contact 15, 19 de la position d'ouverture à la position de fermeture des contacts 13, 17, cette fonction étant remplie par le levier support 23. Le dimensionnement des ressorts de torsion 31, 32 est donc réalisé par rapport uniquement à l'effort de pression de contact à exercer, et les dimensions desdits ressorts s'en trouvent donc réduites.More specifically, each

Les spires des ressorts de torsion 31, 32 entourant l'axe de rotation desdits ressorts sont déportés par rapport à l'arbre 21. De cette façon, en plus d'augmenter la force de pression de contact et de réduire les dimensions des moyens de pression de contact 31, 32, l'encombrement du mécanisme de commande au niveau de l'arbre 21 est réduit. Vue la complexité du mécanisme de commande concernant les articulations autour de l'arbre 21, ce déport des spires des ressorts de torsion 31, 32 par rapport à l'arbre 21 permet de simplifier ledit mécanisme de commande et de faciliter son assemblage.The turns of the torsion springs 31, 32 surrounding the axis of rotation of said springs are offset relative to the
Dans le mode de réalisation représenté, les premiers brins 35, 36 des ressorts de torsion 31, 32 sont connectés entre eux pour former un seul ensemble élastique intégrant lesdits ressorts de torsion. Comme cela est visible sur les
Le mécanisme de commande du disjoncteur peut être tel que celui décrit dans la demande de brevet européenne
Dans le mode de réalisation représenté, le mécanisme de commande comprend des moyens de transmission agencés entre la manette 9 et les bras de contact 15, 19, ou plus précisément entre ladite manette et le levier support 23. Ces moyens de transmission permettent de déplacer le levier support 23 entre la position d'ouverture et la position de fermeture des contacts mobiles 13, 17.In the embodiment shown, the control mechanism comprises transmission means arranged between the
Comme cela est visible sur la
Les moyens de transmission incluent une biellette de transmission 51 accouplée à une embase interne de la manette pour former une genouillère dont l'articulation se trouve excentrée par rapport à un axe de pivotement 63 de ladite manette. La liaison mécanique brisable 61 est ménagée entre la biellette de transmission 51 et le levier support 23. En position verrouillée, la liaison mécanique brisable 61 autorise la commande manuelle du mécanisme de commande à l'aide de la manette 9. Le déplacement du levier de déclenchement 53 vers une position déclenchée sous l'action du déclencheur 55, provoque la rupture momentanée de la liaison mécanique 61, entraînant le déclenchement automatique du mécanisme de commande, indépendamment de la manette 9. Le levier de déclenchement 53 est associé à un ressort de rappel (non représenté) destiné à assurer le rétablissement automatique de la liaison mécanique 61 lorsque la manette 9 est actionnée vers la position d'ouverture, suite à un déclenchement du mécanisme de commande sur défaut.The transmission means include a

Lorsque le mécanisme de commande est actionné manuellement ou automatiquement vers la position d'ouverture, l'extrémité 87 du tiroir 81 à l'opposé du point d'articulation 83, est susceptible de venir en butée contre une protubérance du boîtier, avec rupture de la liaison cinématique avec le levier de déclenchement 53. Le levier support 23 peut pivoter autour du pivot 21 dans le sens trigométrique, et la zone intermédiaire du tiroir 81 se trouve écartée du bossage 85. Le point d'articulation 83 du tiroir 81 pourrait bien entendu être confondu avec l'axe 21 de pivotement du levier de déclenchement 53.When the control mechanism is actuated manually or automatically to the open position, the
Le fonctionnement d'un tel mécanisme de commande est bien connu des spécialistes, et il est inutile de le décrire plus en détails. Ce fonctionnement est également décrit dans la demande de brevet
