Description
Die Erfindung betrifft ein Aufsatzmodul zum Erfassen eines Schaltzustandes eines elektromagnetischen Schaltgeräts, das ein Schaltergehäuse aufweist, in welchem ein Betätiger angeordnet ist, der als Stößel ausgebildet ist und an einem Ende in Wirkverbindung zu einem Schaltelement, insbesondere einem Mikroschalter steht.The invention relates to an attachment module for detecting a switching state of an electromagnetic switching device having a switch housing, in which an actuator is arranged, which is designed as a plunger and is at one end in operative connection to a switching element, in particular a microswitch.
Elektromagnetische Schaltgeräte im Sinne der vorliegenden Erfindung sind Schütze, Trennschalter, Leistungsrelais sowie Leistungsschalter. Für derartige elektromagnetische Schaltgeräte, insbesondere für Schütze, ist es bei einer Vielzahl von Anwendungsfällen erforderlich, den tatsächlichen Schaltzustand des elektromagnetischen Schaltgeräts, im Gegensatz zu einem Ansteuerzustand des elektromagnetischen Schaltgeräts, zu erfassen, um ihn anderweitig auswerten zu können.Electromagnetic switching devices in the context of the present invention are contactors, disconnectors, power relays and circuit breakers. For such electromagnetic switching devices, in particular for contactors, it is necessary in a large number of applications to detect the actual switching state of the electromagnetic switching device, in contrast to a driving state of the electromagnetic switching device, in order to be able to evaluate it elsewhere.
Die Information, in welcher Schaltstellung sich ein elektromagnetisches Schaltgerät, insbesondere ein Schütz, befindet, wurde bisher durch eine Stern-Dreieckschaltung bewerkstelligt. Die elektrische Verriegelung zweier gekoppelter Schütze wurde bisher über Hilfskontakte realisiert, die ebenso wie die Stern-Dreieckschaltung verdrahtet werden müssen.The information in which switching position an electromagnetic switching device, in particular a contactor, is, has hitherto been accomplished by a star-delta connection. The electrical interlocking of two coupled contactors has hitherto been realized via auxiliary contacts, which must be wired in the same way as the star-delta connection.
Im Stand der Technik erfolgt eine derartige Schaltzustandserfassung mittels einer Erfassungseinrichtung. Hierbei ist im Gehäuse ein mechanischer Schaltkontakt angeordnet, der beim Überführen des Stößels von der einen in die andere Endstellung seinen Schaltzustand wechselt. Der Schaltkontakt wird über Leitungen mit einer Auswertungseinrichtung verbunden, so dass von der Auswertungseinrichtung die Schaltstellung des Schaltkontakts und damit der Schaltzustand des elektromagnetischen Schaltgeräts erfassbar sind. Meist ist die Erfassungseinrichtung eine eigene, vom elektromagnetischen Schaltgerät verschiedene Einrichtung, beispielsweise ein so genannter Hilfsschalter.In the prior art, such a switching state detection takes place by means of a detection device. Here, a mechanical switching contact is arranged in the housing, which changes its switching state when transferring the plunger from one to the other end position. The switching contact is connected via lines to an evaluation device, so that the switching position of the switching contact and thus the switching state of the electromagnetic switching device can be detected by the evaluation device. In most cases, the detection device is its own, from the electromagnetic switching device different device, for example a so-called auxiliary switch.
Dazu ist aus der
Nachteilig am Stand der Technik ist, dass nur zwei unterschiedliche Schaltzustände, der Ein- und der Auszustand, über die Erfassungseinrichtung angezeigt werden können. Der Schaltzustand, in welchem die Kontakte im elektromagnetischen Schaltgerät verschweißt sind, kann bisher nicht über eine Schaltzustandsanzeige wiedergegeben werden.A disadvantage of the prior art is that only two different switching states, the on and the off state, can be displayed via the detection device. The switching state in which the contacts are welded in the electromagnetic switching device, so far can not be reproduced via a switching state indicator.
Demgemäß besteht die Aufgabe der vorliegenden Erfindung darin, ein Aufsatzmodul zum Erfassen eines Schaltzustands eines elektromagnetischen Schaltgeräts zu schaffen, das derart ausgebildet ist, dass es drei mögliche Schaltzustände des Schaltgeräts, den Ein- und Auszustand sowie den Schaltzustand bei verschweißten Kontakten, wiedergibt.Accordingly, the object of the present invention is to provide a top module for detecting a switching state of an electromagnetic switching device, which is designed such that it reflects three possible switching states of the switching device, the on and off state and the switching state in welded contacts.
Diese Aufgabe wird durch ein Aufsatzmodul mit den Merkmalen des Patentanspruchs 1 gelöst. Vorteilhafte Aus- und Weiterbildungen, welche einzeln oder in Kombination miteinander eingesetzt werden können, sind der Gegenstand der abhängigen Ansprüche.This object is achieved by an attachment module having the features of patent claim 1. Advantageous embodiments and developments, which can be used individually or in combination with each other, are the subject of the dependent claims.
Diese Aufgabe wird durch ein Aufsatzmodul zum Erfassen eines Schaltzustands eines elektromagnetischen Schaltgeräts gelöst, das ein Schaltergehäuse aufweist, in welchem ein Betätiger angeordnet ist, der als Stößel ausgebildet ist und an einem Ende in Wirkverbindung zu einem Schaltelement, insbesondere einem Mikroschalter steht. Die Erfindung zeichnet sich dadurch aus, dass der Stößel am anderen Ende einen Schnapphaken aufweist, der drei mögliche Schaltstellungen des elektromagnetischen Schaltgeräts an den Mikroschalter kommuniziert. Das elektromagnetische Schaltgerät kann ein Schütz sein, der eine Spule aufweist, die mit einem Schaltstrom IS beaufschlagbar ist. Wenn die Spule mit dem Schaltstrom IS beaufschlagt wird, zieht sie einen Anker an. Wird der Schaltstrom IS unterbrochen, bewegt sich der Anker auf Grund einer rücktreibenden Federkraft von der Spule weg. Mit dem Anker ist ein Stößel verbunden. Zusammen mit dem Anker wird daher auch der Stößel von der Spule angezogen. Auf Grund der Bewegung des Stößels wird mindestens ein Lastkontakt geschlossen, so dass ein Laststrom IL fließen kann. Umgekehrt wird beim Unterbrechen des Schaltstroms IS der Lastkontakt wieder geöffnet.This object is achieved by an attachment module for detecting a switching state of an electromagnetic switching device having a switch housing in which an actuator is arranged, which is designed as a plunger and is at one end in operative connection with a switching element, in particular a microswitch. The invention is characterized in that the plunger has a snap hook at the other end, which communicates three possible switching positions of the electromagnetic switching device to the microswitch. The electromagnetic switching device may be a contactor, which has a coil which can be acted upon by a switching current IS. When the switching current IS is applied to the coil, it attracts an armature. When the switching current IS is interrupted, the armature moves away from the coil due to a restoring spring force. The armature is connected to a plunger. Therefore, together with the armature, the plunger is also attracted to the coil. Due to the movement of the plunger, at least one load contact is closed so that a load current IL can flow. Conversely, when the switching current IS is interrupted, the load contact is opened again.
Alternativ kann das elektromagnetische Schaltgerät beispielsweise auch ein Leistungsschalter sein. In diesem Fall ist der Schaltstrom IS mit dem Laststrom IL identisch. Die Spule zieht in diesem Fall den Anker an, wenn der Laststrom IL zu groß wird. Auf Grund des Anziehens des Ankers wird ein Schaltschloss freigegeben, das den Stößel in eine Stellung bewegt, in welcher der Lastkontakt geöffnet bleibt. Die Stellung des Stößels ist dabei so ausgebildet, dass sie unabhängig von der konkreten Ausgestaltung des elektromagnetischen Schaltgeräts mit dem Zustand des Lastkontakts und damit mit dem Schaltzustand des elektromagnetischen Schaltgeräts korrespondiert. Erfindungsgemäß kann der Stößel drei mögliche Schaltstellungen des elektromagnetischen Schaltgeräts, die Ein- und Ausstellung sowie die Schaltstellung bei verschweißten Kontakten, anzeigen. Demgemäß wird die Schaltstellung des Schützes über den Stößel als mechanische Schaltstellungsanzeige direkt in das Modul weitergegeben. An der Schaltstellungsanzeige befindet sich eine Nase, welche somit beim Schalten des Schützes ein Schaltelement, insbesondere einen Mikroschalter, im Aufsatzmodul betätigt. Um die gegenseitige Verriegelung zweier elektromagnetischer Schaltgeräte, insbesondere zweier Schütze, über dieses Schaltelement zu realisieren, wird das Ansteuersignal des jeweiligen anderen Schützes über das Schaltelement im Aufsatzmodul des ersten Schützes geführt. Vorteilhafterweise erfolgt somit die Verriegelung nicht mehr über Hilfskontakte des Schützes, sondern über das Schaltelement im Modul. Damit sind die Vorteile verbunden, dass der Hilfskontakt im Schütz dem Kunden zur freien Verfügung steht, und er keine Verdrahtung mehr vornehmen muss. Die Geräte sind außerdem insgesamt vorkonfektioniert, wodurch das Fehlerpotential minimiert werden kann.Alternatively, the electromagnetic switching device may for example also be a power switch. In this case, the switching current IS is identical to the load current IL. The coil in this case attracts the armature when the load current IL becomes too large. Due to the tightening of the armature a switching lock is released, which moves the plunger in a position in which the load contact remains open. The position of the plunger is designed so that it corresponds to the state of the load contact and thus with the switching state of the electromagnetic switching device, regardless of the specific configuration of the electromagnetic switching device. According to the invention, the plunger three possible switching positions of the electromagnetic switching device, the input and exhibition and the switching position in welded contacts indicate. Accordingly, the switching position of the contactor is transmitted via the plunger as a mechanical switching position display directly into the module. At the switching position indicator is a nose, which thus when switching the contactor a switching element, in particular a micro switch, operated in the attachment module. In order to realize the mutual locking of two electromagnetic switching devices, in particular two contactors, via this switching element, the drive signal of the respective other contactor is guided via the switching element in the attachment module of the first contactor. Advantageously, the locking is thus no longer via auxiliary contacts of the contactor, but via the switching element in the module. This has the advantages that the auxiliary contact in the contactor is at the customer's free disposal, and he no longer has to make any wiring. The devices are also pre-assembled in total, so that the potential for errors can be minimized.
Es ist erfindungsgemäß vorgesehen, dass der Stößel an seinem einen Ende mit dem Mikroschalter in Verbindung steht und am anderen Ende einen Schnapphaken aufweist, der drei unterschiedliche Stellungen relativ zu einer Bezugskante einnimmt, um die unterschiedlichen Schaltzustände, den Ein- und Auszustand sowie den Schaltzustand bei verschweißten Kontakten anzuzeigen.It is inventively provided that the plunger is connected at one end to the microswitch and at the other end has a snap hook, which occupies three different positions relative to a reference edge to the different switching states, the on and off state and the switching state to show welded contacts.
In einer besonders vorteilhaften Ausführungsform weist das Aufsatzmodul ein Kommunikationskabel auf, das eine Übertragung von Ansteuersignalen zwischen zwei Aufsatzmodulen ermöglicht. Dabei ist des Weiteren vorteilhaft vorgesehen, dass bei der gegenseitigen Verriegelung zweier miteinander gekoppelter elektromagnetischer Schaltgeräte, insbesondere zweier Schütze, das Ansteuersignal des einen Schützes über das Schaltelement im Aufsatzmodul des anderen Schützes geführt ist.In a particularly advantageous embodiment, the attachment module has a communication cable, which enables transmission of activation signals between two attachment modules. In this case, it is further advantageously provided that in the mutual locking of two mutually coupled electromagnetic switching devices, in particular two contactors, the drive signal of a contactor is guided via the switching element in the attachment module of the other contactor.
