Definitions
- the invention relates to the field of magnetic actuators.
- the invention relates to a circuit breaker pole and a medium voltage circuit breaker.
- a circuit breaker or switchgear comprises a circuit breaker pole for each phase of the current to be switched on and off.
- Such a circuit breaker pole may comprise two contacts that are moved or pushed together by a drive or actuator to form an electrical contact for closing the circuit breaker pole. These contacts are moved away from each other to interrupt the electrical contact for opening the circuit breaker pole.
- the two contacts form the interrupter of the circuit breaker pole, which for example may be a vacuum interrupter.
- a general obstacle is that the room directly below the (vacuum) interrupter would be an ideal place for both, the mechanical connection of the drive and the conduction of the cable that is connected to the (movable) contact of the interrupter.
- DE 198 08 083 C1 discloses a circuit breaker pole, comprising a vacuum interrupter for connecting and disconnecting an electrical path, wherein the vacuum interrupter comprises a first electrical contact and a second electrical contact that are movable with respect to each other along an longitudinal axis (L) of the circuit breaker, an actuator with a magnetic drive for actuating the vacuum interrupter by moving the first electrical contact and the second electrical contact with respect to each other along the longitudinal axis (L), wherein the actuator has an opening surrounding the longitudinal axis (L) and the electrical path extends through the axial opening.
- a first aspect of the invention relates to a circuit breaker pole.
- the circuit breaker pole comprises an interrupter for connecting and disconnecting an electrical path.
- the interrupter comprises a first electrical contact and a second electrical contact that are movable with respect to each other along a longitudinal axis of the circuit breaker.
- the interrupter comprises a vacuum interrupter.
- the contacts of the interrupter may be part of the electrical path.
- the electrical path may further comprise lines for connecting the circuit breaker pole with the circuit breaker or with a cable to be interrupted by the circuit breaker pole.
- the circuit breaker pole comprises an actuator for actuating the interrupter, for example by moving the first electrical contact and the second electrical contact with respect to each other along the longitudinal axis.
- the actuator may comprise a force transferring element mechanically connected to the actuator and to an electrical contact of the interrupter.
- the actuator may be or may comprise a magnetic drive.
- the actuator has an (axial) opening surrounding the longitudinal axis.
- the electrical path extends through the axial opening.
- the complete electrical path is arranged near the (central) longitudinal axis and the extension of the circuit breaker pole in a radial direction may be reduced, since the conductors of the circuit breaker pole need not to be guided away from the central axis.
- the (vacuum) interrupter and the actuator may be arranged in a way that they are axially symmetric.
- the magnetic drive may be hollow in its centre. Through this centre, a medium voltage cable or line can be lead that connects one of the terminals of the vacuum interrupter. With an arrangement like this, a circuit breaker pole may be integrated in a cable, resulting in an extremely compact medium voltage switching and interrupting unit.
- the electrical path comprises a line for electrically connecting a cable with the circuit breaker pole and the line extends through the opening of actuator.
- the opening within the actuator has only to accommodate the line (for example a conductor and its isolation) and the opening may be small with respect to the whole actuator.
- the actuator comprises a magnetic drive with a coil in a core for attracting a movable plate.
- the force from the movable plate may be transferred to the interrupter by an element extending through the opening. Not only the current but also the force for moving the interrupter contact is transferred through the opening.
- the force transferring element is a tube surrounding the line. This may be the case, when the movable plate is on one side of the core and the interrupter is on another side of the core, i. e. in the case when the actuator and the interrupter are arranged in sequence along the longitudinal axis. In a radial direction the conductor of the first line, an insulating layer of the first line and the tube may extend through the opening of the actuator.
- the coil, the core, the movable plate may be axially symmetric and/or all parts may have an (axial) opening through which the electrical path, in particular the first line, and the force transferring element extend.
- the force transferring element is the first electrical contact of the interrupter. This may be the case, when the interrupter is arranged at least partly in the hollow centre of the actuator.
- the circuit breaker comprises a contact system for providing an electrical connection between the (first electrical contact of the) interrupter and a first line for connecting the interrupter with a cable to be interrupted by the circuit breaker pole, while the first electrical contact and the first line are moving with respect to each other along the longitudinal axis.
- the contact system may be arranged between the interrupter and the actuator or may be arranged on the side of the actuator opposite to the interrupter.
- the contact system may be (at least partially) rotational symmetric to allow the interrupter to be rotated with respect to the line without losing electrical contact.
- the contact system may provide a continuous electrical contact by a longitudinal and a rotational movement of the interrupter.
- the contact system may comprise a siral contract on a first conductor end, wherein the ring is situated within an contact tube mechanically connected to a second conductor end.
- the first conductor end may be the end of the conductor of a line of the circuit breaker pole and the second conductor end may be part of an electrical contact of the interrupter.
- the interrupter, the contact system and the actuator are arranged in sequence along the axial direction. This may result in a compact circuit breaker pole with respect to a radial direction.
- the arrangement may be that first the interrupter, second the contact system and third the actuator are aligned along the longitudinal direction. It may also be possible that first the interrupter, second the actuator, third the contact system are aligned after each other.
- the interrupter extends (at least partially) through the opening of the actuator. This may compact the circuit breaker pole with respect to a longitudinal direction.
- the interrupter is rotatable about the longitudinal axis with respect to a first line, wherein in a first rotational position, the circuit breaker is electrically connected to a busbar contact and in a second rotational position, the circuit breaker is electrically connected to an earthing contact.
- the contact may be with the second line or the second electrical contact of the interrupter.
- Nearly all components of the circuit breaker pole may be axially symmetric with respect to the longitudinal axis resulting in an axially symmetric circuit breaker pole which may be rotated with respect to the line.
- the line for making the contact may extend within a first section in an axial direction, may bend and may extend within a second section in a radial direction, such that the end of the line is moving between the first and second rotational position, when the circuit breaker is rotated.
- the interrupter is rigidly connected with a housing of the circuit breaker pole, the housing is rotatable with respect to the first line.
- the circuit breaker may be rotated as a whole for switching between the busbar contact and the earthing contact.
- the interrupter is rotatable with respect to a housing of the circuit breaker pole.
- the busbar contact, the earthing contact and the circuit breaker may have a common housing for isolating and shielding the busbar contact, the earthing contact and the circuit breaker.
- a further aspect of the invention relates to a medium voltage circuit breaker or medium voltage switchgear with a circuit breaker pole as described in the above and in the following.
