Definitions

  • the present invention relates to an electrical protection device comprising at least one cut-off module mounted on a mounting support, and an electromagnetic coil control device juxtaposed with one of the above-mentioned modules, each cut-off module comprising two contacts of which one is movable relative to the other between a first position in which the contacts are closed and allow the passage of current and an open position in which the current is interrupted between the contacts, and the aforesaid control device comprising an electromagnetic coil suitable to control the opening or closing of the contacts, the coil of the control device being located substantially opposite the (or) point (s) of contact of the contacts (or) module (s) cutoff, the axis said first the coil of the control device extending substantially perpendicular to the plane of attachment while the axis (the axes) of (the) module (s) cutoff s' tends (ent) substantially parallel to the fixing plane, said first axis extending substantially perpendicularly to the axis (the axis) said (s) second (s).
  • Electrical protection devices such as low-voltage circuit breakers allow in a manner known per se to interrupt the electrical current in an electrical circuit by separating the contacts so as to protect goods and people from the effects of short-circuit currents.
  • the present invention relates more particularly to the field of ultrafast type protection circuit breakers associated with electromagnetic auxiliary opening and closing control.
  • the remote control degrades the cutoff and electrical endurance by the electromagnetic field created by its coil.
  • the document EP 0 508 846 A1 describes such an electrical protection device.
  • the plate 23 is located below the coil 16 of the control device.
  • the present invention solves these problems and proposes a simple electrical protection apparatus in which the cutoff characteristics are improved, in particular by increasing the component of the propulsion force acting on the arc during the cut.
  • the subject of the present invention is an electrical protection apparatus according to claim 1.
  • the coil of the control device seen from the front of the apparatus, is wound in a winding direction opposite to the winding direction of the coil (s) of the module (s). cut, the latter winding direction being seen from the upper part of the apparatus.
  • the winding direction of the coil of the control device is the counter-clockwise direction, while the coil (s) of the cutoff module (s) is (are) wound ( s) in a clockwise direction.
  • the aforementioned screen has a cross shape comprising two so-called first wings extending along the height of the apparatus substantially perpendicular to the longitudinal direction of the rail, and two said second wings extending in the longitudinal direction of the rail, the portion comprising these second wings and the aforementioned central portion joining these two wings being located substantially opposite the coil of the control device so as to cover substantially completely.
  • the aforementioned screen has a thickness of between 0.5 and 1.2 mm.
  • the magnetic screen is sandwiched between the envelope of the control device and that of the neighboring cut-off module.
  • this apparatus comprises means for pre-positioning said screen with respect to the housing of the control device or to the housing of the breaking module, these means comprising two centering pins provided on one of the housings cooperating with orifices. provided on the other housing, or a peripheral rib formed on one of said housings.
  • this electrical protection device is a low-voltage circuit breaker.
  • this control device is a remote control device.
  • this device is a bipolar low-voltage circuit breaker comprising two breaking modules.
  • a low-voltage, modular, bipolar electric circuit breaker D comprising, from left to right, a remote control device 1 and two cut-off modules 2, 3, the device and the modules being housed in modular housings adapted to be attached side by side on a mounting rail (not shown).
  • Each housing has a rear face 4 for attachment to the rail, two main faces 5, 6 by which the housings are placed side by side, a front face 7 forming a nose, an upper face 8 and a lower face 9, said faces comprising 10 input and 11 output terminals of the device.
  • each breaking module 2,3 comprises a magnetic tripping device capable of controlling the opening of the contacts in the event of a short-circuit in the circuit to be protected, as well as a thermal tripping device able to drive the opening of the contacts in case of overload in the circuit.
  • each magnetic tripping device comprises a coil 12 traversed by the current to be monitored and electrically connected to the fixed contact 13, said coil being traversed by an actuating rod 14 adapted to actuate the movable contact 15 in the event of a short circuit.
  • the fixed and movable contacts 15 and 15 are located in a space 16 called prechamber in which the electric arc is formed before being moved to a breaking chamber 17.
  • the remote control device 1 mainly comprises an electromagnetic coil 18 able to act on the contacts 13, 15 so as to cause their opening or closing.
  • the coils 12,21 of the clipping modules 2,3 are substantially in the same plane parallel to the plane of the mounting bracket, the X axis of the coils of the clipping modules 2,3 extending substantially perpendicular to the Y axis of the coil of the control device 1.
  • This part comprises a central portion 23 from which extend two wings 24,25 extending substantially perpendicular to the longitudinal direction Z of the mounting bracket and two wings 26,27 extending substantially parallel to this direction.
  • This central portion 23 and the two wings 26, 27 extending substantially parallel to the aforementioned longitudinal direction Z are dimensioned so as to cover the coil 18 of the control device 1 substantially completely.
  • this piece 22 is sandwiched between the envelopes of the control device 1 and that of the cutoff modules 2, 3.
  • the pre-positioning of the part is carried out by means of two centering pins 28, 29 provided on the casing of the circuit-breaker intended to cooperate with orifices 30, 31 provided on the plate 22.
  • Another embodiment of this pre- positioning could consist of a peripheral ribbing provided on one or other of the envelopes and for receiving said plate 22.
  • This piece is intended to constitute a magnetic guide for the arc and is held in final position by the assembly of the control device 1 on the circuit breaker formed by the two modules 2, 3, as shown in FIG. figures 6 and 7 .
  • the thickness of the plate should not be too large, so that it does not constitute a shield whose function would be to stop the flow, but instead provide the magnetic guidance function.
  • This thickness will therefore advantageously be between 0.5 and 1.2 mm, with a preferred value of 1 mm.
  • this plate Even if the primary function of this plate is not to achieve a shield, it will be noted that the cross shape of this plate will improve the shielding thereof.

  • winding direction of the circuit breakers is usually clockwise in top view
  • winding direction of the control coil 18 of the control device 1 will advantageously be counter-clockwise.
  • this magnetic guide constituted by the above-mentioned plate 22 makes it possible to channel the magnetic flux lines and creates, at the point of separation of the contacts, more favorable conditions for the departure of arc, to straighten the latter so as to refocus it as illustrated on the figure 9 .
  • the invention makes it possible to obtain an electromagnetic effect consisting of a reduction of the lateral component L of the negative Laplace force of the order of 75% on the arc of the cut-off module closest to the remote control coil. .
  • This increase with respect to a circuit-breaker without associated auxiliary control device being 20% on the arc furthest from the remote control device and of the order of 2000% on the arc closest to the coil of the electro magnet.
  • the auxiliary control device can then be considered as a complementary arc-blowing device.
  • the invention is particularly applicable to electrical switching devices such as circuit breakers controlled by a control device comprising an electromagnetic coil such as a remote control or a differential detection device, and more broadly to any actuator equipped with coil auxiliaries. electromagnetic control.
  • the screen may consist of one or more pieces made of a ferromagnetic material positioned in a vertical plane between the electromagnet and the nearest cutoff module.
