Description
Die Erfindung betrifft ein Schaltgerät mit einer Einrichtung zum sprunghaften Einschalten mit einer Betätigungsmechanik, die ein Betätigungselement aufweist und über eine Übertragungsmechanik mit einem Schaltschloss in Wirkverbindung steht, welches über eine weitere Übertragungsmechanik einen Schalthebel bedient, und mit einer Kontaktanordnung, die ein festes Schaltstück mit Kontakten aufweist, welches gegenüber liegend zu einem beweglichen Schaltstück mit Kontakten angeordnet ist, welches in einem Kontaktschieber geführt ist.The invention relates to a switching device having a device for sudden switching with an actuating mechanism which has an actuating element and is operatively connected via a transmission mechanism with a switch lock, which operates a shift lever via a further transmission mechanism, and with a contact arrangement comprising a fixed contact piece with contacts has, which is opposite lying to a movable contact piece with contacts, which is guided in a contact slide.
Schaltgeräte, insbesondere Leistungsschalter, dienen unter Anderem dem sicheren Abschalten bei einem Kurzschluss und schützen dadurch Verbraucheranlagen. Ferner eignen sich elektrische oder mechanische Schalteinheiten für das betriebsmäßige manuelle Schalten von Verbrauchern sowie zur sicheren Trennung einer Anlage vom Stromnetz bei Wartungsarbeiten oder bei Änderungen an der Anlage. Elektrische Schalteinheiten werden häufig elektromagnetisch betrieben.Switching devices, in particular circuit breakers, serve, among other things, the safe switching off in the event of a short circuit and thereby protect consumer installations. Furthermore, electrical or mechanical switching units are suitable for the operational manual switching of consumers as well as for the safe disconnection of a system from the mains during maintenance work or when changing the system. Electrical switching units are often operated electromagnetically.
Das heißt, derartige Schalteinheiten sind technisch hochwertige elektrische Schaltgeräte mit integriertem Schutz für Motoren, Leitungen, Transformatoren und Generatoren. Näheren Einsatz finden sie an Funktionsstellen mit geringerer Schalthäufigkeit. Derartige Schalteinheiten sind neben dem Kurzschlussschutz auch für den Überlastschutz geeignet.That is, such switching units are high-quality electrical switching devices with integrated protection for motors, lines, transformers and generators. They are used more closely at workstations with a lower switching frequency. Such switching units are suitable in addition to the short circuit protection for overload protection.
Im Fall eines Kurzschlusses schaltet eine elektrische Schalteinheit eine elektrische Anlage sicher ab. Somit bietet diese einen Sicherungsschutz vor Überlastung. Jeder Leiter, durch den Strom fließt, erwärmt sich mehr oder weniger stark. Die Erwärmung hängt dabei vom Verhältnis der Stromstärke zum Stromleiterquerschnitt ab, der so genannten Stromdichte. Die Stromdichte darf nicht zu groß werden, da sonst durch zu hohe Erwärmung die Leiterisolationen verschmoren oder möglicherweise ein Brand ausgelöst werden kann. Um elektrische Anlagen gegen diese schädigenden Auswirkungen zu schützen, werden Schalteinheiten als Überstrom-Schutzeinrichtungen verwendet.In the case of a short circuit, an electrical switching unit switches off an electrical system safely. Thus, this provides a protection against overload. Every conductor through which electricity flows heats up more or less. The heating depends on the ratio of the current to the conductor cross-section, the so-called current density. The current density must not be too large, otherwise by too high Heating may contaminate the conductor insulation or possibly cause a fire. To protect electrical equipment against these damaging effects, switching units are used as overcurrent protective devices.
Leistungsschalter weisen zwei voneinander getrennt wirkende Auslösemechanismen für den Überlast- und Kurzschlussschutz auf. Beide Auslöser sind in Reihe geschaltet. Den Schutz beim Kurzschluss übernimmt ein zeitlich nahezu unverzögert wirkender elektromagnetischer Auslöser. Bei einem Kurzschluss entklinkt der elektromagnetische Auslöser unverzögert ein Schaltschloss des Leistungsschalters. Ein Schaltanker trennt das Schaltstück, ehe der Kurzschlussstrom seinen Höchstwert erreichen kann.Circuit breakers have two separate release mechanisms for overload and short-circuit protection. Both triggers are connected in series. Short-circuit protection is provided by an electromagnetic release that acts almost instantaneously. In the event of a short circuit, the electromagnetic release unlocks without delay a circuit breaker of the circuit breaker. A switching armature disconnects the contactor before the short-circuit current can reach its maximum value.
Bekannte Schalteinheiten weisen eine Kontaktschiebereinheit mit einem Kontaktschieber und einem beweglichen Schaltstück auf. Das bewegliche Schaltstück weist ferner elektrische Kontakte auf. Ferner weisen derartige Schalteinheiten erste Kontakte zu einer Stromleitung auf. In einem eingeschalteten Zustand kontaktieren die elektrischen Kontakte des beweglichen Schaltstückes die festen Kontakte der Schalteinheit. Im Kurzschlussfall werden die elektrischen Kontakte des beweglichen Schaltstücks von den festen Kontakten gelöst, so dass der Stromfluss unterbrochen wird. Hierbei wird das bewegliche Schaltstück von den festen Kontakten gelöst.Known switching units have a contact slide unit with a contact slide and a movable contact piece. The movable contact piece also has electrical contacts. Furthermore, such switching units have first contacts to a power line. In an on state, the electrical contacts of the movable contact piece contact the fixed contacts of the switching unit. In the event of a short circuit, the electrical contacts of the movable contact piece are released from the fixed contacts, so that the flow of current is interrupted. Here, the movable contact is released from the fixed contacts.
Leistungsschalter erfüllen neben ihren Schutzfunktionen als Überlast- und Kurzschlussauslöser, wie oben schon erwähnt, auch das normative Ein- und Ausschalten von Motoren. Zum Nachweis dieser Funktion müssen die Leistungsschalter nach der Produktnorm den zehnfachen Motornennstrom einschalten können. Um diese Grenzbelastung gewährleisten zu können, ist es notwendig, dass der Leistungsschalter die Doppelunterbrechung der drei Strombahnen in Form jeweils einer beweglichen Brücke mit zwei Kontaktstellen und zwei festen Kontaktstellen, nahezu gleichzeitig und in einer Sprungfunktion schließt.In addition to their protective functions as overload and short-circuit releases, as already mentioned above, circuit breakers also fulfill the normative switching on and off of motors. To prove this function, the circuit-breakers must be able to switch on ten times the rated motor current according to the product standard. In order to be able to guarantee this limit load, it is necessary for the circuit breaker to close the double interruption of the three current paths in the form of a movable bridge with two contact points and two fixed contact points, almost simultaneously and in a step function.
Zur Realisierung dieser Funktion wird über eine Hand betätigte Mechanik, in Form eines Betätigungselements, eines Schaltschlosses und einer Betätigungskette, der Kontaktapparat aus Kontaktschieber und einer beweglichen Brücke freigegeben. Die Freigabe erfolgt durch eine so genannte Schnelleinschaltung. Dabei werden die drei Kontaktsysteme durch eine Mechanik erst dann freigegeben, nachdem das Schaltschloss bereits eingeschaltet wurde. Nun bestimmt der Federspeicher in Form einer Kontaktlastfeder die Kinematik des Kontaktsystems beim Einschalten.To realize this function is released via a hand-operated mechanism, in the form of an actuating element, a switching mechanism and an actuating chain, the contact device of contact slide and a movable bridge. The release takes place by a so-called quick turn-on. The three contact systems are released by a mechanism only after the switch lock has already been turned on. Now, the spring-loaded in the form of a contact load spring determines the kinematics of the contact system when switching.
Nach dem Auftreffen der Brücken auf den Festschaltstücken beschleunigt der Kontaktschieber, bis er an einem Anschlag reflektiert wird. Durch die Reflexion und der daraus resultierenden kinetischen Energie des Kontaktschiebers kommt es zu einem erneuten Öffnen des Kontaktsystems. Dies kann bei einem gleichzeitig erhöhten Strom in dieser Strombahn zu Verschweißungen führen.After striking the bridges on the Festschaltstücken the contact slide accelerates until it is reflected at a stop. The reflection and the resulting kinetic energy of the contact slide reopen the contact system. This can lead to welds with a simultaneously increased current in this current path.

Demgemäß besteht die Aufgabe der vorliegenden Erfindung darin, ein Schaltgerät mit einer Einrichtung zum sprunghaften Einschalten zu schaffen, die ein Kontaktabheben mit möglicher Kontaktverschweißung vermeidet.Accordingly, the object of the present invention is to provide a switching device with a device for sudden switching, which avoids a contact lift with possible contact welding.
Diese Aufgabe wird erfindungsgemäß durch ein Schaltgerät mit den Merkmalen des Patentanspruchs 1 gelöst. Weitere Ausführungsbeispiele der Erfindung ergeben sich aus den Unteransprüchen, der Beschreibung, sowie der Zeichnung.This object is achieved by a switching device with the features of claim 1. Further embodiments The invention will become apparent from the dependent claims, the description, and the drawings.
Erfindungsgemäß wird diese Aufgabe durch ein Schaltgerät mit einer Einrichtung zum sprunghaften Einschalten gelöst, die eine Betätigungsmechanik aufweist, die ein Betätigungselement aufweist und über eine Übertragungsmechanik mit einem Schaltschloss in Wirkverbindung steht, welches über eine weitere Übertragungsmechanik einen Schalthebel bedient, und eine Kontaktanordnung aufweist, die ein festes Schaltstück mit Kontakten aufweist, welches gegenüber liegend zu einem beweglichen Schaltstück mit Kontakten angeordnet ist, welches in einem Kontaktschieber geführt ist. Die Erfindung sieht weiterhin vor dass die Einrichtung zum sprunghaften Einschalten ein Blockierelement aufweist, welches über den Schalthebel die Kontaktordnung aus beweglichen und festen Schaltstücken in einer Offen-Halteposition hält und bei einer Schnelleinschaltung die Blockade des Schalthebels aufhebt, so dass die Kontakte des beweglichen Schaltstücks sprunghaft auf den Kontakten des festen Schaltstücks landen, wobei das Blockierelement als Blockierstift ausgebildet ist.According to the invention this object is achieved by a switching device with a device for sudden switching, which has an actuating mechanism which has an actuating element and is operatively connected via a transmission mechanism with a switching mechanism, which operates a shift lever via a further transmission mechanism, and has a contact arrangement which a fixed contact having contacts, which is arranged opposite to a movable contact with contacts, which in a Contact slide is guided. The invention further provides that the device for sudden switching has a blocking element which holds the contact arrangement of movable and fixed contact pieces in an open-holding position and reverses the blocking of the shift lever at a quick turn on, so that the contacts of the movable contact piece jumped land on the contacts of the fixed contact piece, wherein the blocking element is designed as a blocking pin.
Der Kern der Erfindung besteht darin, dass in einem vorzugsweise dreipoligen Schaltgerät ein fingerförmiger Schalthebel die drei Kontaktapparate aus festen und beweglichen Schaltstücken direkt durch ein zusätzliches Teil, erfindungsgemäß hier durch ein Blockierelement, in der Offen-Position hält, wobei sich das Blockierelement von einer Schalthebelbetätigungsstelle hin in Richtung zum Betätigungselement erstreckt. Im einfachsten Fall ist dieses Blockierelement vorzugsweise ein zylinderförmiger oder rechteckiger, stabförmiger Blockierstift, der den Schalthebel in Offen-Stellung hält und sich dazu an einem im Gehäuse gelagerten entsprechenden Gegenlager abstützt.The essence of the invention is that in a preferably three-pole switching device, a finger-shaped lever holds the three contact devices of fixed and movable contact pieces directly by an additional part, according to the invention here by a blocking element in the open position, wherein the blocking element of a Schalthebelbetätigungsstelle extends toward the actuator. In the simplest case, this blocking element is preferably a cylindrical or rectangular, rod-shaped blocking pin, which holds the shift lever in the open position and is supported on a bearing in the housing corresponding counter bearing.
Bei einer Schnelleinschaltung wird dieses vorzugsweise federbeaufschlagte Gegenlager weggeschwenkt. Das erfindungsgemäße Blockierelement rutscht dabei in eine Ausnehmung, so dass die Blockade des Schalthebels aufgehoben ist. Wirkende Kontaktlastfedern können das bewegliche Schaltstück in Ein-Stellung drücken. Das Gegenlagerteil wird direkt vom Gerätebedienteil betätigt. Somit ergibt sich eine kurze Kraftflusskette, wodurch die Lebensdauer der gesamten Kraftübertragungskette über das Schaltschloss verlängert wird. Im Übrigen ergibt sich auf Grund der kurzen Toleranzkette über das Blockierelement eine relativ genau vorher bestimmbare Kontaktoffenhaltestrecke, aus der heraus das bewegliche Schaltstück in Ein-Stellung geschlossen wird. Kurze Kontaktoffenhaltestrecken verringern die Gefahr von schädlichen Kontaktprellern.In a quick turn this preferably spring-loaded counter bearing is pivoted away. The blocking element according to the invention slips into a recess, so that the blockage of the shift lever is released. Acting contact load springs can push the movable contact in the on position. The counterpart part is actuated directly by the device control unit. This results in a short power flow chain, which extends the life of the entire power transmission chain via the switch lock. Incidentally, due to the short tolerance chain via the blocking element, a contact detention path which can be determined relatively precisely beforehand results from which the movable contact piece is closed in the on position. Short contact open lines reduce the risk of harmful contact bouncers.

Preferably, this blocking pin according to the invention can be arranged laterally next to the short-circuit release, so that the space between the short-circuit release and switching mechanism is optimally utilized.
In einem weiteren besonders vorteilhaften Ausführungsbeispiel der Erfindung kann das Konzept vorgesehen sein, dass das Blockierelement zwischen einer Schalthebelbetätigungsstelle, an welcher das Blockierelement den Schalthebel beaufschlagt, und einem Gegenlager ausgebildet ist. Diese Anordnung des Blockierelements ermöglicht ebenfalls eine Ausbildung zwischen Kurzschlussauslöser und Schaltschloss, so dass auch in diesem Ausführungsbeispiel der Bauraum zwischen Kurzschlussauslöser und Schaltschloss optimal genutzt ist.In a further particularly advantageous embodiment of the invention, the concept may be provided that the blocking element is formed between a shift lever operating point at which the blocking element acts on the shift lever, and an abutment.

Vorzugsweise kann in einem weiteren Ausführungsbeispiel der Erfindung vorgesehen sein, dass das Gegenlager federbeaufschlagt ausgebildet ist. Gemäß diesem Ausführungsbeispiel der Erfindung ist vorgesehen, dass bei der Schnelleinschaltung des Schaltgeräts dieses federbeaufschlagte Gegenlager wegschwenkt wird, wodurch das Blockierelement in einer Aussparung des Gegenlagers rutscht und die Blockade des Schalthebels aufgehoben wird. Im weiteren Verlauf können dann die wirkenden Kontaktlastfedern das bewegliche Schaltstück sprunghaft in die Ein-Stellung drücken.Preferably, it can be provided in a further embodiment of the invention that the abutment is spring-loaded.

In the further course then the acting contact load springs can push the movable contact suddenly in the on position.
In einem weiteren bevorzugten Ausführungsbeispiel der Erfindung kann es vorgesehen sein, dass das Gegenlager bei einer Schnelleinschaltung wegschwenkbar ausgebildet ist. Dabei rutscht das erfindungsgemäße Blockierelement in eine Ausnehmung des Gegenlagers, wodurch die Blockade des Schalthebels aufgehoben wird. Dies führt im weiteren Verlauf dazu, dass die wirkenden Kontaktlastfedern das bewegliche Schaltstück sprunghaft in Ein-Stellung drücken.In a further preferred embodiment of the invention, it may be provided that the counter bearing is designed such that it can be pivoted away during a quick turn-on. In this case, the blocking element according to the invention slides in a recess of the thrust bearing, whereby the blockage of the shift lever is released. This leads to the further course that the acting contact load springs press the movable contact suddenly in the on position.
Gemäß einem weiteren Ausführungsbeispiel der Erfindung kann es vorgesehen sein, dass das Gegenlager in direkter Wirkverbindung zum Betätigungselement der Betätigungsmechanik ausgebildet ist. Somit ergibt sich eine möglichst kurze Kontaktflusskette, wodurch die Lebensdauer der gesamten Kraftübertragungskette über das Schaltschloss verlängert wird. Im Übrigen ergibt sich auf Grund der kurzen Toleranzkette über das Blockierelement eine relativ genau vorherbestimmbare Kontaktoffenhaltestrecke, aus der heraus das bewegliche Schaltstück in Ein-Stellung geschleudert wird. Diese kurze Kontaktoffenhaltestrecke verringert die Gefahr von schädlichen Kontaktprellern.According to a further embodiment of the invention, it may be provided that the counter-bearing is formed in direct operative connection to the actuating element of the actuating mechanism. This results in the shortest possible contact flux chain, whereby the life of the entire power transmission chain is extended through the switching mechanism.

This short contact lightening range reduces the risk of harmful contact bouncers.
Außerdem kann es gemäß eines Ausführungsbeispiels der vorliegenden Erfindung vorgesehen sein, dass das Gegenlager eine Ausnehmung aufweist, in welche das Blockierelement bei einer Schnelleinschaltung rutscht. Dieser Vorgang löst die Blockade des Schalthebels und ermöglicht, dass das bewegliche Schaltstück sprunghaft in eine Ein-Stellung überführt wird.In addition, it can be provided according to an embodiment of the present invention that the anvil has a recess into which the blocking element slips during a quick turn on. This action releases the blockage of the shift lever and allows the movable contact to be jumped to an on position.
Gemäß einem weiteren Ausführungsbeispiel der Erfindung kann es vorgesehen sein, dass das Blockierelement zylinderförmig ausgebildet ist oder stabförmig mit rechteckigem Querschnitt. Diese Ausbildungsformen des Blockierelements ermöglichen, dass das Blockierelement zwischen Kurzschlussauslöser und Schaltschloss angeordnet werden kann, so dass der Bauraum zwischen diesen beiden Baueinheiten optimal genutzt wird.According to a further embodiment of the invention, it may be provided that the blocking element is cylindrical or rod-shaped with a rectangular cross-section. These embodiments of the blocking element allow the blocking element between the short-circuit release and switching mechanism can be arranged so that the space between these two units is optimally used.
Es entspricht weiterhin der Erfindung, dass das Schaltgerät vorzugsweise ein Leistungsschalter ist.It also corresponds to the invention that the switching device is preferably a circuit breaker.
Die Erfindung zeichnet sich dadurch aus, dass durch Verwendung eines Blockierelements eine direkte Wirkverbindung zwischen Schalthebel, Gegenlagerteil und freigebendem Gerätebedienteil hergestellt wird. Das Blockierelement ist dazu direkt neben der Kurzschlussauslöserspule des Stromauslösers hindurchgeführt, vorzugsweise in der mittleren Gerätepolkammer und in einfachster Form als verlängertes zylindrisches Normteil ausgeprägt. Diese vorteilhafte Ausbildung führt dazu, dass eine kurze Toleranzkette vorliegt, damit sich eine genau einstellbare Offenhaltestrecke ergibt. Es ist außerdem eine stabile Teilegestaltung mit wenig Eigennachgiebigkeiten möglich.The invention is characterized in that a direct operative connection between the shift lever, counter bearing part and releasing device control unit is produced by using a blocking element. The blocking element is for this purpose passed directly next to the short-circuit release coil of the current release, preferably in the middle device pole chamber and in the simplest form as an elongated cylindrical Standard part pronounced. This advantageous embodiment means that a short tolerance chain is present, so that there is a precisely adjustable hold-open distance. It is also a stable part design with little Eigenbeschbigkeiten possible.
Die Hindurchführung des erfindungsgemäßen Blockierelements in der mittleren Polkammer ermöglicht außerdem eine annähernd mittige Abstützung des Schalthebels zwischen seinen Lagerstellen. Daraus ergeben sich gleiche Offenhaltestrecken aller drei Gerätepol-Kontaktapparate. Dies ist besonders günstig für eine zeitgleiche Ein-Schaltung.The passage of the blocking element according to the invention in the middle pole chamber also allows an approximately central support of the shift lever between its bearings. This results in the same hold open distances of all three device pole contact devices. This is particularly favorable for a simultaneous on-circuit.
Gemäß der Erfindung kann weiterhin das Konzept bestehen, dass die Freigabe der Schnelleinschaltung über eine kurze Drehbewegung des Gerätebedienteils erfolgt, dadurch kann der Freigabeschaltpunkt sehr nah an die Ein-Stellung gelegt werden, so dass das Schaltschloss bei Freigabe genügend weit außer Eingriff betätigt wird.According to the invention may further consist of the concept that the release of the quick turn on a short rotational movement of the device control panel, thereby the release switching point can be placed very close to the on position, so that the switch lock is released far enough when released.
Aus der Erfindung ergibt sich weiterhin, dass der Angriffspunkt des Blockierelements am Schalthebel nahe der Kraftwirkmittellinie des Kontaktschiebers liegt. Der Vorteil besteht dabei darin, dass auf Grund der günstigen Hebelverhältnisse die abstützenden Blockierteile nur mit annähernd der Summenkraft der drei Kontaktlasten belastet wird, ohne wesentliche zusätzliche Kraftkomponenten der Kraftübersetzung. Demzufolge liegt ein deutlich geringerer Verschleiß der Abrutschkanten der Blockierteile vor.From the invention further results that the point of application of the blocking element is located on the shift lever near the force acting center line of the contact slide. The advantage consists in the fact that due to the favorable leverage ratios, the supporting blocking parts is loaded only with approximately the sum of the three contact loads, without significant additional force components of the power transmission. Consequently, there is a significantly lower wear of the slip edges of the blocking parts.
Es ergibt sich außerdem aus der Erfindung, dass die Nachbestückung mit Schnelleinschaltungen zu einem sehr späten Gerätemontagekomplettierungszeitpunkt möglich ist. Daraus ergeben sich Kostenvorteile, da die Mehrkosten für die Zusatzteile nicht bei allen Gerätevarianten anfallen. Es sind keine verschiedenen Schaltschlossausführungen mit bzw. ohne Schnelleinschaltung notwendig.It is also apparent from the invention that the refilling with fast engagements is possible at a very late device assembly completion time. This results in cost advantages, since the additional costs for the additional parts do not apply to all device variants. There are no different switch lock versions with or without quick turn on necessary.
Weitere Vorteile und Ausführungen der Erfindung werden anhand eines Ausführungsbeispiels sowie anhand der Zeichnung erläutert.Further advantages and embodiments of the invention will be explained with reference to an embodiment and with reference to the drawing.
