Definitions

  • the invention relates to a switch lock, in particular for low-voltage protection devices with a knee joint, which comprises a handle and a first U-bracket attached thereto, wherein in the handle a spring element is arranged and wherein the first U-bracket is mechanically in operative connection with a pawl, which mechanically operatively connected to a shift lever via a second U-bracket, as well as a protective device.
  • the protective device When the protective device is switched on, at least one switch-off spring is preloaded in the switch lock.
  • the protective device is designed so that current monitoring groups such as bimetal triggers, continuously measure the flow of current in a branch line. If the current flow exceeds a defined threshold value, the opening spring, which is pre-tensioned in the switch lock, is unlatched. The unlatched spring force is transmitted to the main contacts via the switch lock mechanism, which are then opened. As a result, the flow of current is interrupted.
  • current monitoring groups such as bimetal triggers
  • a low-voltage protection device In practical use, a low-voltage protection device has a rather passive task, that is, it is switched on once after installation in a control cabinet and remains in this state until a system failure occurs. But since a system failure occurs very rarely, it is common that the switching mechanism in the low-voltage protection device is not operated for decades. There is therefore the risk that components in the switch lock will fail unnoticed due to aging and the protective device will no longer function. In particular, the biased opening springs constitute a potential hazard. For example, hydrogen embrittled feathers in new condition show no abnormalities, but tend, with appropriate bias to break after months.
  • circuit breakers in safety-related controls as a redundant switching element to a contactor in order to achieve a higher safety integrity level.
  • a circuit is on a contactor on and off.
  • the contactor is monitored by a safety evaluation device. If a switch-off fails, the circuit-breaker is triggered or switched off via an undervoltage release. Since a circuit breaker usually has to be switched on manually, an automatic monitoring of the circuit breaker is very expensive. For this reason, such circuits are only interesting in applications that require a low switching frequency operationally.
  • the object of the present invention is to provide a switch lock, in particular for low-voltage protection devices and a corresponding protection device, which works reliably and minimizes the risk of unrecognized material defects.
  • a switching mechanism in particular for low-voltage protective devices with a knee joint, which comprises a handle and a first U-bracket attached thereto, wherein in the handle a spring element is arranged and wherein the first U-bracket mechanically in operative connection with a pawl is, which is mechanically connected via a second U-bracket with a shift lever.
  • the invention is characterized in that the spring element in the handle is designed such that the knee joint remains stretched under load with a plurality of opening springs, but moves under load with only one opening spring in the off position.
  • the invention also includes a protective device with a switch lock according to the invention.
  • the switching mechanism according to the invention has a knee joint, which comprises a handle, which is preferably designed as a toothed rocker, and a first U-bracket, wherein in the handle a spring element, preferably a torsion spring, is arranged.
  • the U-bracket has two legs, which are arranged on the one hand in the handle and the other in a pawl.
  • a second U-bracket is arranged, which connects the pawl mechanically with the shift lever. This switching mechanism is arranged between two circuit boards.
  • the switching mechanism according to the invention a plurality, in particular at least two Ausschaltfedern on.
  • the first opening spring is preferably designed as a torsion spring, with two ends, wherein the one end is attached to the shift lever and the other end to a first extension of a circuit board.
  • the second opening spring is preferably designed as a tension spring and also has two ends, wherein the one end is attached to a second extension of a circuit board and the other end to the shift lever.
  • a stop is provided in the housing.
  • the force “F” comes from a prestressed opening spring, which is tensioned during the switch-on process, and whose force is transmitted via several mechanical parts to the upper U-bar.
  • the torque “Ma” acts clockwise in the switched position on the shift lever.
  • Tension spring corresponds to the force acting on the upper, first U-bracket, which originates from a tension spring located somewhere in the transmission.
  • F torsion corresponds to the force acting on the upper, former U-bracket, which originates from a torsion spring located somewhere in the transmission.
  • Each individual opening spring is dimensioned in terms of power so that it can open the main contacts alone a small piece.
  • the opening travel which can be achieved by a switch-off spring, is so great that at rated voltage, a current flow through the main contacts comes to a standstill.
  • the effect of the return spring in the toothed rocker is so dimensioned so that the knee joint remains stretched when loaded with two Ausschaltfedern, but is moved when loaded with only one opening spring in the off position counterclockwise.
  • the invention is characterized in that the effect of the return spring in the handle, so in the toothed rocker is dimensioned so that the knee joint under load with two opening springs remains stretched, but is moved under load with only one opening spring in the off position.
  • the advantage is that when a break-off spring breaks in the switch lock, the low-voltage protection device switches off automatically. The plant comes to a standstill and the fault is detected even before a dangerous situation occurs.
  • the low-voltage protection device is preferably a circuit breaker or a motor branch.
  • the handle is designed as a toothed rocker.
  • the spring element is designed as a torsion spring.
  • the first opening spring is designed as a torsion spring.
  • the first opening spring has two ends, wherein the one end is fastened to the shift lever and the other end to a first extension of a circuit board.
  • a second opening spring is designed as a tension spring. It is inventively provided that the second opening spring has two ends, wherein one end is attached to a second extension of a circuit board and the other end on the shift lever.
  • the invention also includes a protective device, in particular a low-voltage protection device, with a switching mechanism according to the invention.
  • the switching mechanism according to the invention is characterized in that the action of the return spring in the handle is dimensioned so that the knee joint is stretched under load with two opening springs, but is moved under load with only one opening spring in the off position.
  • This concept according to the invention has the advantage that when a break-off spring breaks in the switching mechanism, the low-voltage protection device switches off automatically. The plant comes to a halt and the fault is detected even before a dangerous situation occurs.
  • the switching mechanism according to the invention thus enables reliable operation and minimizes the risk of unrecognized material defects.
  • Fig. 1 shows the switching mechanism 1 according to the invention, which has a knee joint, which comprises a handle 2, which is preferably designed as a toothed rocker, and a first U-bracket 3, wherein in the handle 2, a spring element 4, preferably a torsion spring is arranged.
  • the U-bracket 3 has two legs 5, 6, which are arranged on the one hand in the handle 2 and on the other hand in a pawl 7.
  • a second U-bracket 8 is arranged, which connects the pawl 7 mechanically with a shift lever 9.
  • the spring element 4 acts on the handle 2 with the torque "Mdf" in the counterclockwise direction.
  • Fig. 2 is the switching mechanism 1 according to the invention in the installed state between two circuit boards 10, 11 shown.
  • the switching mechanism according to the invention a plurality, in particular at least two Ausschaltfedern 12, 13 has.
  • the first opening spring 12 is preferably designed as a torsion spring with two ends, wherein one end is attached to the shift lever 9 and the other end to a first extension 14 of the circuit board 11.
  • the second opening spring 13 is preferably designed as a tension spring and also has two ends, wherein one end is attached to a second extension 15 of the circuit board 11 and the other end to the shift lever 9.
