Definitions

  • the invention relates to a cut-off device with an arc-breaking screen that enables the current to be cut off following an automatic tripping in the event of a short-circuit overcurrent or an opening by manual control.
  • Said device comprises in a housing at least one fixed contact cooperating with a movable contact carried by a contact arm.
  • Said device comprises a device for actuating the movable contact moving between a closed position and an open position of said contacts.
  • a movable arc cutting screen is moved to occupy a rest position when the contacts are in the closed position; and a rolling position when the contacts are in the open position.
  • the use of such a screen thus makes it possible to roll the electric arc between the contacts and thus makes it possible to cut off the electric current of short circuit.
  • the cut-off by screen makes it possible to generate high arc voltages whatever the amplitude of the current to be cut.
  • the generated arc voltage may be greater than 500V per pole.
  • This cut-off device is particularly intended for DC cut-off, particularly in photovoltaic type electrical production installations.
  • the movable cutoff screen occupies a rest position to which it is biased by a spring and is driven by the trip device in response to a short-circuit overcurrent to interpose between the contacts.
  • the electrical protection switch device also comprises a manual control member connected to a control mechanism cooperating with the contact-carrying arm to drive the control member by means of a movement of the arm in the direction of the opening of the contacts. .
  • This type of device can be used to electrically isolate and protect against short circuits a motor starter assembly (contactor, thermal relay).
  • the switch device described in the application EP0310468 allows to request the same arc-cutting screen as well during an automatic tripping with strong overcurrents, that is to say for short-circuit currents, only when opening by manual control at low currents, ie for overload currents, or even at intensities less than or equal to rated currents.
  • the known control mechanisms of the screen have the disadvantage of being relatively complex. Indeed, they generally comprise specific means for manual operation of said screen and other means capable of acting on the screen in the event of a short circuit fault. In addition, the known mechanisms sometimes have means for returning the screen to an operating position.
  • the invention therefore aims to overcome the drawbacks of the state of the art, so as to provide an arc-cutting cutoff device having an optimized operation.
  • the mobile cutoff screen of the cutoff device according to the invention is connected to the contact arm by an actuator rod so that the displacement of the contact arm causes the displacement of the mobile cutoff screen, the connecting rod.
  • actuator being respectively connected to the movable breaking screen and the contact arm by a second and third axis of rotation.
  • the mobile cut-off screen is connected to the contact arm by an actuating rod so that the movement of the contact arm from the open position to the closed position causes the screen to move.
  • movable shutting of the rolling position to the rest position the movement of the contact arm from the closed position to the open position causing the moving screen to move from the rest position to the position of rolling.
  • the mobile cutoff screen is rotated about a first rotational axis integral with the housing.
  • the actuation rod comprises two sections articulated with respect to one another around a fourth axis of rotation, a first section being connected to the mobile cutoff screen by the second axis of rotation and a second section being connected to the contact member by the third axis of rotation.
  • the fourth axis of rotation comprises at least one end positioned in a guide rail integral with the housing, said guide rail comprising at least a first ramp for moving said fourth axis to allow simultaneous movement of the contact member and of the mobile cutoff screen.
  • the guide rail comprising at least a second movement ramp of the fourth axis, a displacement of said axis in the second ramp allowing only a displacement of the contact member beyond the open position of the contacts, the mobile cut-off screen remaining stationary.
  • the first and second ramps are contiguous so that the second displacement ramp is placed at a first end of the first main ramp.
  • the guide rail comprising at least a third movement ramp of the fourth axis, a displacement of said axis in the third ramp allowing only a displacement of the contact member beyond the closing position of the contacts, the mobile cut-off screen remaining stationary.
  • the first and third ramps are contiguous so that the second displacement ramp is placed at a second end of the first main ramp.
  • the second and third movement ramps of the fourth axis of rotation describe an arc of a circle allowing the immobilization of the screen and the displacement of the movable contact, said arc having the center of the second axis of rotation.
  • the first displacement ramp comprises a longitudinal axis forming an angle between 0-45 ° with respect to an axis connecting the second and third axes.
  • the cut-off device has a casing 1 in which are housed at least one fixed contact 12 cooperating with a movable contact 11 carried by a contact arm 14.
  • the cutoff device comprises an actuating device 10 of the movable contact 11 moving between a closed position and an open position of said contacts.
  • the actuating device 10 can be controlled by means of a manual control member 40.
  • the manual control of the opening of the contacts is thus effected by means of said member cooperating with a contact-carrying arm 14 to drive a moving said arm in the direction of the opening of the contacts.
  • the actuating device 10 can also be controlled by means of disconnection means 50 enabling the current to be cut off following automatic tripping in the event of a short-circuit overcurrent.
  • the fixed contact 12 is then electrically connected to an end of a winding of a coil 51 belonging to an electromagnetic release of the disconnection means 50. Said winding is itself connected by its other end to a terminal
  • the electromagnetic actuator further comprises a movable magnetic core 24 shaped as a plunger and slidably mounted within the coil 51. One end of the core is intended to act directly on the actuating device 10.
  • the movable contact 11 is disposed at one end of a contact arm 14 and is electrically connected to an output terminal 22.
  • the contact arm 14 is pivotally mounted at its end opposite the moving contact 11 and is biased in the direction of closing the contacts by a return spring not shown.
  • the rotary screen 13 normally occupies a rest position towards which it is recalled by an elastic means, in particular a torsion spring not shown.
  • the mobile rotary cut-off screen is preferably a rotary screen integrally connected to the housing 1 via a first axis of rotation Z1.
  • the mobile cut-off screen 13 is connected to the contact arm 14 by an actuating rod 20 so that the displacement of the contact arm 14 causes the moving cut-off screen 13 to move.
  • the actuating rod 20 has two ends connected respectively to the mobile breaking screen 13 and to the contact arm 14.
  • a first end of the connecting rod is connected to the mobile screen 13 by a second axis of rotation Z2 and a second end is connected to the contact arm by one by a third axis of rotation Z3.
  • the second axis of rotation Z2 is parallel to the first axis of rotation and is off-center with respect to said first axis so that displacement of the second axis causes rotation of the movable breaking screen 13.
  • the mobile breaking screen 13 is connected to the contact arm 14 by an actuating rod 20 so that the displacement of the contact arm 14 from the open position to the closed position causes the movement of the the movable cut-off screen 13 from the rolling position to the rest position, the displacement of the contact arm 14 from the closed position to the open position causing the mobile cut-off screen 13 to move from the position rest to the rolling position.
  • the actuating rod 20 comprises two sections articulated with respect to each other around a fourth axis of rotation Z4.
  • the connecting rod then comprises a first section 21 connected to the mobile breaking screen 13 by the second axis of rotation Z2 and a second section being connected to the contact member 14 by the third axis of rotation Z3.
  • the fourth axis of rotation Z4 comprises at least one end positioned in a guide rail 30 integral with the housing 1.
  • Said guide rail comprising at least a first main ramp 31 for moving said fourth axis Z4 to allow a simultaneous displacement of the contact member 14 and the movable cut-off screen 13.
  • the displacement of the fourth axis Z4 of one end of the first main ramp 31 at another end causes the mobile switching screen 13 to move from the rolling position to the rest position and vice versa.
  • the inclination of this first ramp with respect to the alignment of the second and third axes of rotation makes it possible to adjust the acceleration experienced by the mobile cutoff screen 13 at the time of opening of the contacts.
  • the contact member 14 is moves and drives in its movement the actuating rod 20.
  • the angle ⁇ formed by the first main ramp 31 and the axis connecting the second and third axes of rotation is between 0 and 45 °.
