Definitions
- the invention relates to a switching device for guiding and separating high DC currents.
- the switching device comprises a gas-tight encapsulated housing, which is filled with an insulating gas, and at least one contact pair, which is arranged in the housing and having a first contact and a second contact, wherein at least one of the two contacts is movable and the two contacts in an on state of the switching device in contact with each other and in an off state of the switching device are out of contact with each other.
- the switching device comprises an arc runner arrangement which generates a magnetic field at least in the region of the contact pair.
- Such a switching device is known for example from US 5,680,084 A.
- the housing described therein is filled with a gas mixture comprising hydrogen.
- switches in which one or more contact pairs are provided, which are operated in an air atmosphere. When opening such switches creates a switching arc between the contacts of a contact pair. In AC applications, this switching arc extinguishes between the contacts at the natural zero crossing of the current, thus causing a permanent interruption of the current flow.
- a magnetic blower field either externally via a permanent magnet system or via a self-guided in the switch itself current path generated own magnetic field, so that the switching arc is expelled from the contacts and expanded and extinguished due to deionization and cooling.
- Switches with extinguishing systems are also known, e.g. in the form of so-called Deion chambers, in which by dividing the switching arc into several partial arcs with simultaneous cooling by chamber walls and quenching plates, a rapid increase in the arc voltage, so that it at the latest when reaching the driving voltage to extinction and thus to a permanent interruption of the electric current comes.
- the switching chamber walls and the extinguishing chambers are also subjected to thermal stress, which results in a limitation of the electrical life of the switching device.
- the load of the switching device during the switching process is particularly high in the case of high arc performance, especially in the absence or low mobility of the arc, resulting in a relatively high contact erosion and material changes of the switching chamber walls by locally high thermal loads.
- a high thermal load of the switching chambers occurs in particular at high direct currents, which in contrast to comparable alternating currents have no sinusoidal current profile with natural zero crossing and thus have after separation of the switching contacts a consistently high arc performance.
- a very efficient arc quenching can be achieved if instead of normal air as switching environment hydrogen or a hydrogen-containing gas mixture in the form of a hermetically encapsulated housing of the switch selects. It is known that hydrogen molecules cause a very efficient cooling and deionization of the switching path due to significantly higher particle velocity compared to air molecules. As a result, when switching in a hydrogen atmosphere on a free-burning arc, a multiple of the arc voltage achievable with the same switching arrangement in air can be achieved. In practice, this means that you can build a higher arc voltage over a targeted elongation of the switching arc, caused by a magnetic blower field, as by the division of the arc into several partial arcs in the form of a classic arc splitter.
- Encapsulated hydrogen-filled switching devices can be found today in several products in the form of compact relays for currents up to several hundred amps realized. Above all, these products are designed to permanently carry currents of this magnitude in the form of very compact arrangements and typically to switch them several thousand times. With these compact switching chambers, however, the achievable switching numbers are limited at high switching capacities by a gradually decreasing insulation capacity of such arrangements.
- Object of the present invention is therefore to realize a switch, preferably for high DC currents, which allows high electrical switching performance at high S ehalt frequency and high total number of switching at relatively compact dimensions.
- the switching device is filled with an insulating gas, in particular hydrogen or a hydrogen-containing gas mixture, and additionally an extinguishing device is provided, two effective methods for extinguishing the switching arc are combined, so that there is a particularly efficient and rapid deletion of the switching arc.
- an efficient extinguishing of the arc is effected.
- the switch can also be used for higher currents, since even in cases where the hydrogen atmosphere is insufficient, then the Arc quenching ensures that the arc is safely extinguished.
- the quenching device is made of an electrically non-conductive material and shaped so that the arc is widened meandering.
- the extinguishing device may be made of ceramic, for example. Due to the meandering expansion of the arc, the effective arc gap is significantly extended, without having an increased space requirement within the switching device.
- the quenching chamber may include a plurality of spaced-apart quenching plates of refractory and electrically non-conductive material, such as e.g. Ceramic, include. This results in a simple construction and a simple production, as is known for example in connection with Deion chambers.
- the extinguishing device has an inlet side, from which the arc is directed into the extinguishing device and enters it.
- the individual extinguishing plates protrude differently, so that when the arc is driven into the extinguishing device, the arc is already widening in a meandering or undulating manner, since the arc moves around the plates and conforms to them.
- different length extinguishing plates can be provided, wherein alternately shorter and longer extinguishing plates are arranged.
- the extinguishing plates may further each have a notch on the inlet side of the extinguishing device, in which the arc is driven into it.
- the notch may be asymmetrical in this case and / or arranged off-center, so that the lowest point of the notch is arranged off-center.
- the notches of adjacent extinguishing plates together can form a groove with an odd course.
- the arc is additionally widened meandering transverse to its direction of movement.
- a waveform of the arc on the one hand in the direction of movement of the arc by nestling on the extinguishing plates and a waveform transverse to the direction of movement results through the notches. This causes a very efficient extension or expansion of the arc.
- the arc runner assembly may include at least two permanent magnets that are arranged outside the housing and generate the magnetic field in the region of the contact pair.
- At least one arc guide arrangement can be provided, by means of which an arc occurring between the contacts is led to the extinguishing device.
- the arc guide assembly may include a first baffle and a second baffle, each extending from the contacts in the direction of the at least one quenching device, that increases the distance from each other.
- a first extinguishing device For a first polarity of an arc, a first extinguishing device and for a second polarity of the arc, a second extinguishing device may be provided.
- the first contact is electrically conductively connected to a fixed electrode and the second contact is electrically conductively connected to a movable electrode.
- each of the electrodes can have a guide arrangement of the arc guide device in the form of a surface widening starting from the respective contact in the direction away from the respective other electrode.
- the surface of the electrode can be represented by a separate cup-shaped component.
- the movable electrode may be sealed out of the housing via a bellows, wherein a shield plate is provided on the movable electrode, which at least partially surrounds the bellows and protects against thermal influences.
- the housing preferably has an insulating tube of electrically insulating material and two covers closing the insulating tube at its ends, wherein the insulating tube, the cover and the electrodes are rotationally symmetrical to a longitudinal axis of the switching device.
- one of the lids may be integrally formed with the fixed electrode in order to ensure the most efficient heat dissipation from the housing.
- FIG 2 is a perspective view of the switching device according to Figure 1 and
- Figure 3 is a perspective view of a quenching device according to the switching device
- FIG. 1 A first figure.
- the switching device 1 comprises a switching chamber 2 forming a housing 3, which is hermetically sealed to the outside and is designed substantially cylindrical with a fixed electrode 4 at one end face.
- first lid 7 On the side of the fixed electrode 4 is a cup-shaped first lid 7, which is connected either as a separate component concentric with the fixed electrode 4, wherein the outer part of the fixed electrode 4 passes through an opening in the lid 7, or as in the figure 1, the first lid 7 and the fixed electrode 4 are made as a unitary component.
- the mobility of the movable electrode 5 is achieved via an axially variable-length bellows 6, whose one end face is connected to the movable electrode 5 gas-tight.
- the other end face of the bellows 6 is also gas-tightly connected to a cup-shaped second lid 9 in such a way that the portion of the movable electrode 5 located outside the housing 3 is passed through a concentric opening 8 on the lid front side.
- the ends facing away from the outer electrode sides of the two covers 7, 9 are each gas-tightly connected to an end face of a cylindrical insulating tube 10 made of an electrically insulating material, preferably ceramic.
- the insulating tube 10 is in this case positioned in the longitudinal direction of the housing 3 so that the inner ends of the two electrodes 4, 5 are located in the interior of the insulating tube 10.
- the located in the interior of the housing 3 side of the fixed electrode 4 carries on its front side 11 a first contact 13 and the inside of the housing 3 located side of the movable electrode 5 carries on its front side 12 a second contact 14.
- Die beidenmaschinee 13, 14 are the same size and together form a contact pair.
- the contacts 13, 14 are preferably made of a suitably chosen erosion-resistant contact material.
- the two contacts 13, 14 are in this case firmly connected with their respective electrode 4, 5 via a flat solder connection.
- the switching chamber 2 is designed as follows. Two parallel to each other permanent magnets 15, 16, in the middle of which the switching chamber 2 and the housing 3 is located, are arranged outside of the housing 3. The permanent magnets 15, 16 are arranged at the level of the two contacts 13, 14 and generate a magnetic field whose field lines in the region of the contacts 13, 14 are approximately homogeneous, wherein the field lines are parallel to the surface of the contacts 13, 14.
- a resulting when opening the contacts 13, 14 arc is due to the force acting in the contact area Lorentz force at a properly selected magnetic field strength rapidly from the surfaces of the contacts 13, 14 away in the direction of the insulating 10 moves.
- the extinguishing devices 17, 18 are used for targeted expansion or lengthening of the running in the direction of the insulating tube 10 Arc as soon as it reaches an inlet side 19 of one of the two extinguishing devices 17, 18.
- the extinguishing devices 17, 18 each comprise a stack arrangement of extinguishing plates 20, 21 of a erosion-resistant insulating material, preferably ceramic, which in analogy to the When switching to air often used Deion extinguishing chambers are fixed in a defined distance from each other in a frame 32, which also consists of insulating material (see Figure 3).
- the extinguishing devices 17, 18 are aligned with the permanent magnets 15, 16 located outside the switching chamber 2 in such a way that the magnetic field lines perpendicular to the longitudinal axes LI, L2 of the two permanent magnets 15, 16 and perpendicular to a connection plane, which includes both longitudinal axes LI, L2, lie.
- the arc is when entering a the extinguishing devices 17, 18 are not divided according to the invention, but selectively extended by nestling on the individual extinguishing plates 20, 21 and by the blasfeld employmente bulge in the space between the extinguishing plates 20, 21. With a stepped plate assembly of the shape just described thus additional elongation of the arc is achieved.
- a further reinforcement of the arc bulging can be achieved by notches 22, 23 in the extinguishing plates 20, 21 on the inlet side 19.
- the indentations 22, 22 'of adjacent extinguishing plates 20, 20' may be offset from one another or formed differently asymmetrically.
- a quenching devices 17, designed in this way significantly higher arc voltages can be achieved in a switching chamber atmosphere composed of hydrogen or a hydrogen-containing gas mixture than in a deion chamber of comparable size operated in air, which as a result greatly shortens the burning time of the electric arc.
- the two contacts 13, 14 are chamfered in such a way that the surfaces facing the electrodes 4, 5 larger are as the respective other contact 14, 13 facing surfaces.
- a continuous migration of the arc from the surfaces of the contacts 13, 14 is favored.
- a favorable arc running behavior can be achieved by a conical or bell-shaped configuration of the electrode surfaces 24, 25 in the interior of the housing 3.
- An additional improvement of the arc guide in the direction of the quenching devices 17, 18 can be achieved by a bead 26, 27 or a bead-like elevation of the bell-shaped electrode surfaces 24, 25 of both electrodes 4, 5 in the direction along the connecting plane of the two quenching devices 17, 18.
- a particularly advantageous embodiment of the arc guide can be achieved in that, as shown in Figure 1, baffles in the form of starting from the respective contact in the direction away from the other electrode direction widening caps 28, 29 are provided from electrically conductive material. The caps 28, 29 also each form one of the beads 26, 27.
- the caps 28, 29 are separate components, which consist of a erosion-resistant material and in full length to the conical or bell-shaped surface geometry of the electrodes 4, fifth nestle and form a solid bond with these, for example via a flat solder joint. With such an arrangement, the erosion counteracted by the local melting and evaporation along the arc root points associated with each circuit can be counteracted.
- a switching chamber is realized, which - embedded in the manner described in the permanent magnetic field - allows a polarity-independent switching, i. Irrespective of the polarity of the current, the electric arc produced when the contacts 13, 14 are opened will always pass through one of the two baffles in the form of the caps 28, 29 into the respectively adjacent extinguishing devices 17, 18 and extinguish there become.
- the so-called 'pinch-of' method in which in the first step, first the individual components or assemblies of the switching device mounted and the entire assembly then gas-tight, preferably via solder joints, is closed. Before filling with the desired insulating gas, the atmospheric air must first be completely removed from the housing. This is done via a suction tube preferably made of copper, which is connected to the housing gas-tight at the chamber end to the housing preferably via a solder and which is connected at the other end to a vacuum pump. After reaching the desired vacuum, the housing is filled via an appropriate valve with the insulating gas of the desired pressure. Finally, the chamber is then over a flat Squeezing the suction tube and subsequent separation sealed from the filling gas-tight.
- the housing is first completely built up and suitably prefixed according to the modular principle
- the entire assembly is then placed in a vacuum brazing furnace, where it is successively evacuated in a single furnace process, filled with insulating gas of the desired pressure, and finally completely gas-tightly sealed at a furnace temperature above the solder melting point.
