Description

Die Erfindung betrifft ein Verbindungselement für den Zusammenbau einer mehrpoligen Leitungsschutzschaltereinheit aus aneinandergereihten, beispielsweise ein- zwei, drei- oder vierpoligen Schutzschaltern, umfassend eine die Schaltknebel der aneinandergereihten Schutzschalter gemeinsam übergreifenden Schiene, gemäß dem Oberbegriff des Anspruchs 1.The invention relates to a connecting element for the assembly of a multi-pole circuit breaker unit of juxtaposed, for example, single, three or four-pole circuit breakers, comprising a switching knob of the juxtaposed circuit breaker cross-rail, according to the preamble of claim 1.

Die Erfindung betrifft weiterhin eine mehrpolige Leitungsschutzschaltereinheit, die aus aneinandergereihten ein- oder zweipoligen Schutzschalten zusammengesetzt ist, mit einer die Schaltknebel der Schutzschalter gemeinsam übergreifenden Schiene, gemäß dem Oberbegriff des Anspruchs 7.The invention further relates to a multi-pole circuit breaker unit, which is composed of juxtaposed one or two-pole protection switching, with a switching knob of the circuit breaker together cross rail, according to the preamble of claim 7.

Ein gattungsgemäßes Verbindungselement und ein gattungsgemäßes aus aneinandergereihten einpoligen Schutzschalten zusammengebautes mehrpoliges Gerät sind im Prinzip bekannt, beispielsweise aus der DE 92 03 138 U , der EP 0 694 946 A1 , der US 5 172 087 A und der DE 1973 476 U .A generic connection element and a generic of juxtaposed single-pole protection switching assembled multipole device are known in principle, for example from the DE 92 03 138 U , of the EP 0 694 946 A1 , of the US 5 172 087 A and the DE 1973 476 U ,

Mehrpolige Leitungsschutzschaltereinheiten lassen sich in einfacher Weise individuell aus einzelnen ein- zwei, drei- oder vierpoligen Leitungsschutzschaltern, in der Regel im Montagewerk oder ggf. vor Ort im Bedarfsfall, herstellen, indem sie nebeneinandergereiht auf einer üblichen Profilschiene angeordnet werden und durch zusätzliche spezielle Verbindungselemente mechanisch miteinander gekoppelt sind. Die Schaltgriffe oder Schaltknebel der aneinandergereihten Geräte werden dabei mit einer Verbindungsschiene, welche dieselben gemeinsam übergreift, mechanisch aneinandergekoppelt. Dies hat den Effekt, dass, wenn man den Schaltknebel eines der Geräte betätigt, also beispielsweise von der Ausschalt- in die Einschaltstellung verschwenkt, die Schaltknebel der anderen im Verbund aneinandergereihten Geräte von der Verbindungsschiene mitgenommen und ebenfalls zwangsweise verschwenkt werden. Verbindungsschienen sind dabei aus Kostengründen und aus Gründen der Betriebssicherheit oft aus einem isolierenden Kunststoff, beispielsweise aus einem Thermoplast, hergestellt, sie können aber auch aus Metall bestehenMulti-pole circuit breaker units can be easily individually from single single, three or four-pole circuit breakers, usually in the assembly plant or possibly on-site if necessary, produce by being juxtaposed on a conventional rail and mechanically by additional special fasteners coupled together. The switching handles or knobs of the juxtaposed devices are mechanically coupled together with a connecting rail, which overlaps the same together. This has the effect that, if one operates the switch knob of one of the devices, that is, for example, pivoted from the off in the closed position, the switch knob of other juxtaposed devices in the composite of the connecting rail and also forced to be pivoted. connecting rails are for cost reasons and for reasons of reliability often made of an insulating plastic, such as a thermoplastic, but they can also be made of metal

Erfolgt die Betätigung der Schaltknebel an einem der im Verbund außen gelegenen Geräte, so kann sich die Verbindungsschiene in sich verwinden oder verbiegen, so dass sie in eine Schräglage kommen kann. Der Schaltknebel desjenigen Gerätes, das im Verbund an der entgegengesetzten Seite zu demjenigen Gerät liegt, dessen Schaltknebel betätigt wird, würde wegen der Verwindung der Verbindungsschiene dann zeitlich verzögert geschaltet werden. Auch muss eine recht hohe Schaltkraft aufgebracht werden, um in diesem Falle alle Pole zu schalten, denn ein Teil der Schaltkraft wird durch die Verformung der Verbindungsschiene absorbiert und muss ausgeglichen werden.If the operation of the switch knob on one of the composite devices located outside, so the connecting rail can twist or bend in itself, so that they can come in an inclined position. The switching knob of that device, which lies in the composite on the opposite side to that device whose switching knob is actuated, would then be switched delayed in time because of the twisting of the connecting rail. Also, a fairly high switching force must be applied to switch all poles in this case, because a part of the switching force is absorbed by the deformation of the connecting rail and must be compensated.

Es ist daher die Aufgabe der vorliegenden Erfindung, ein Verbindungselement für den Zusammenbau einer mehrpoligen Leitungsschutzschaltereinheit aus aneinandergereihten Schutzschaltern so zu verbessern, dass der Bedienkomfort und die Schaltsicherheit beim gemeinsamen Schalten nebeneinander im Verbund gereihter Geräte erhöht wird.It is therefore the object of the present invention to improve a connecting element for the assembly of a multi-pole circuit breaker unit of juxtaposed circuit breakers so that the ease of use and the switching security is increased when switching together side by side in the array of devices ranked.

Es ist eine weitere Aufgabe der vorliegenden Erfindung, eine mehrpolige Leitungsschutzschaltereinheit, die aus aneinandergereihten ein- oder zweipoligen Schutzschalten zusammengesetzt ist, zu verbessern, so dass der Bedienkomfort und die Schaltsicherheit beim gemeinsamen Schalten nebeneinander im Verbund gereihter Geräte erhöht wird.It is a further object of the present invention to improve a multi-pole circuit breaker unit composed of lined-up one or two-pole circuit breakers, so that the ease of operation and the switching reliability in the joint switching side by side in the unit arrayed devices is increased.

Die Aufgabe wird bezüglich des Verbindungselements gelöst durch ein Verbindungselement mit den Merkmalen des Anspruchs 1.The object is achieved with respect to the connecting element by a connecting element having the features of claim 1.

Die Aufgabe wird bezüglich der mehrpoligen Leitungsschutzschaltereinheit gelöst durch eine mehrpolige Leitungsschutzschaltereinheit mit den Merkmalen des Anspruchs 7.The object is achieved with respect to the multipole circuit breaker unit by a multi-pole circuit breaker unit with the features of claim 7.

Erfindungsgemäß also besitzt die Schiene wenigstens eine Führungslasche, die schwenkbeweglich an dem Gehäuse eines der Schutzschalter gehalten ist.

Figur 1 zeigt eine aus vier aneinandergereihten einpoligen Schutzschaltern 101, 101', 101", 101"' zusammengebaute vierpolige Leitungsschutzschaltereinheit 100. Die Schaltknebel 11 der aneinandergereihten Schutzschalter 101, 101', 101", 101 "' sind mittels einer dieselben gemeinsam übergreifenden Schiene 10 miteinander gekoppelt, so dass bei manuellem Verschwenken des Schaltknebels eines der Schutzschalter die Schaltknebel der anderen Schutzschalter mit verschwenkt werden, so dass ein gemeinsames Ein- oder Ausschalten aller vier aneinandergereihten Schutzschalter dadurch gewährleistet ist. FIG. 1 shows a four-line strung together single-pole circuit breakers 101, 101 ', 101 ", 101''assembled four-pole circuit breaker unit 100. The switching knob 11 of the juxtaposed circuit breakers 101, 101', 101 ', 101''are coupled together by means of a same cross rail 10 together . so that when manual pivoting of the switch knob of the circuit breaker, the switch knob of the other circuit breaker are pivoted so that a common switching on or off of all four strung together circuit breaker is ensured.

Die Schiene 10 besitzt an jedem ihrer freien Enden je eine Führungslasche 12, 12', die an den äußeren Gehäusebreitseiten 103 der mehrpoligen Leitungsschutzschaltereinheit 10) schwenkbeweglich gehalten sind. Die Schiene 10 ist eine Profilschiene mit einer U-förmigen Profilkontur, die der halbkreisförmigen Außenkontur der Schaltknebel angepasst ist.The rail 10 has at each of its free ends depending on a guide plate 12, 12 ', which are pivotally held on the outer housing broad sides 103 of the multi-pole circuit breaker unit 10). The rail 10 is a profile rail with a U-shaped profile contour, which is adapted to the semicircular outer contour of the switch knob.

Die Führungslasche 12' besitzt einen der Gehäusebreitseite 103 zugewandten Rastnoppen 13. Damit kann sie in eine Ausnehmung an der Breitseite 102 verrastend eingreifen. Die andere Führungslasche 12 besitzt eine kreisförmige Rastausnehmung, und die entsprechende Breitseite der Schutzschalterkombination besitzt einen Rastnoppen, hier nicht dargestellt, so dass auch an der anderen Seite der Verbindungsschiene eine Rastverbindung zwischen der Verbindungsschiene und dem Gerätegehäuse gegeben ist. Die Rastnoppen 13 stellen dabei die Lagerung im Gehäuse dar.The guide plate 12 'has a housing broad side 103 facing locking nubs 13. Thus, they can engage in a recess 102 on the broad side latching. The other guide plate 12 has a circular recess, and the corresponding broad side of the circuit breaker combination has a locking nubs, not shown here, so that on the other side of the connecting rail a latching connection between the connecting rail and the device housing is given. The locking knobs 13 represent the storage in the housing.

Die Schiene 10 umfasst ein dieselbe federnd gegen die Schaltknebel 11 drückendes Federelement 15. Dieses ist hier als federnder Steg realisiert und steht, wie in der Fig. 2 gezeigt, senkrecht auf der Innenseite der Profilkontur der Schiene 10. Es dient dazu, die Schiene 10 federnd gegen die Schaltknebel zu drücken, wie in Fig. 3 verdeutlicht ist. Dies ist dann besonders nützlich, wenn die Profilkontur der Schiene 10 so ausgelegt ist, dass sie ein gewisses Spiel zu den Schaltknebeln aufweist. Das Federelement 15 drückt dann die Schiene 10 federnd gegen die Schaltknebel.The rail 10 includes a spring element 15 which presses the same resiliently against the switching knob 11. This is realized here as a resilient web and stands, as in the Fig. 2 shown, perpendicular to the inside of the profile contour of the rail 10. It serves to push the rail 10 resiliently against the switch knob, as in Fig. 3 is clarified. This is particularly useful when the profile contour of the rail 10 is designed so that it has a certain amount of play to the control knobs. The spring element 15 then presses the rail 10 resiliently against the switch knob.

In der in der Figur 4 gezeigten Ausführungsform ist das federnde Element als ein federnder Steg 15' realisiert, der an der Führungslasche 12 angebracht ist. Der federnde Steg 15' befindet sich somit wie die Führungslasche 12 außen seitlich an der Breitseite 103 des Schaltgerätes 102 und stützt sich an einem Anschlag an der Breitseite 103 ab.In the in the FIG. 4 In the embodiment shown, the resilient element is realized as a resilient web 15 ', which is attached to the guide lug 12. The springy Web 15 'is thus like the guide plate 12 outside the side of the broad side 103 of the switching device 102 and is based on a stop on the broad side 103 from.

Die äußere Gehäusebreitseite 103 weist eine zur Frontseite 104 hin offene, absatzförmige Ausnehmung 105 auf, in der die Führungslasche 12 gelagert ist. An der gegenüberliegenden Breitseite, die in der Ansicht der Fig. 1 und 3 nicht sichtbar ist, ist eine entsprechende weitere Ausnehmung angebracht. Die Ausnehmung 105 hat die Form eines V-förmigen Einschnittes. Die Lasche 12 steht mit ihrem freien Ende auf dem Grund des V-förmigen Einschnitts auf. Dadurch ist erreicht, dass die Breitseiten der Führungslaschen 12, 12'und der äußeren Gehäusebreitseite 103 bündig aneinander anschließen. Die Führungslaschen 12, 12' stehen nicht über die Breitseiten 102 über. Daher kann an den Schutzschalterverbund 100 mit der Verbindungsschiene ein weiterer Schutzschalter seitlich ohne Zwischenraum angereiht werden.

The tab 12 is at its free end on the bottom of the V-shaped notch. It is thereby achieved that the broad sides of the guide plates 12, 12 'and the outer housing broadside 103 are flush with one another. The guide tabs 12, 12 'are not over the broad sides 102 over. Therefore, to the circuit breaker assembly 100 with the connecting rail another circuit breaker can be lined up laterally without gap. <U> REFERENCE LIST </ u> 10 rail 11 toggle switch 12 guide tab 12 ' guide tab 13 stop knob 14 Arched recess 15 spring element 15 ' Spring element, resilient web 100 Leitunqsschutzschaltereinheit 101 breaker 101 ' breaker 101 ' breaker 101 '" breaker 102 casing 103 broadside 104 front 105 recess 106 Device-side guide pin
