Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a bridging strip, in particular to a bridging strip for a changeover switch.
  • the present invention also relates to a changeover switch assembly having the abovementioned bridging strip.
  • a changeover switch is an electrical switch device for switching two or more power supplies or loads.
  • a changeover switch 20 has input terminals 21 and output terminals 22; the changeover switch 20 can be connected to a main power supply 30 and a backup power supply 40 via the input terminals 21, the output terminals 22 of the changeover switch 20 can be connected to a bridging strip 10, and a selection is made by the changeover switch 20 to connect the main power supply 30 or the backup power supply 40 to the bridging strip 10.
  • the bridging strip must have good dielectric properties so as to provide higher resistance to high voltages.
  • Document DE19504747 discloses a device according to the preamble of claim 1.
  • An object of the present invention is to provide a bridging strip which has good dielectric properties and can provide higher resistance to high voltages.
  • Another object of the present invention is to provide a changeover switch assembly having a bridging strip.
  • the present invention provides a bridging strip, comprising a housing, multiple conductive strips and multiple insulating plates.
  • the housing is formed with an accommodating cavity which extends in an extension direction.
  • the multiple conductive strips are disposed in the housing so as to be spaced apart in sequence in an arrangement direction that is perpendicular to the extension direction, each of the conductive strips having multiple bridging terminals which are arranged in sequence in the extension direction and can project from the housing.
  • One insulating plate is disposed in each gap of the multiple conductive strips to separate two adjacent conductive strips in an insulating manner, and the length of the insulating plates in the extension direction is greater than the length of the conductive strips in the extension direction.
  • the creepage distance of the conductive strips in the extension direction X is increased, because the length of the insulating plates in the extension direction is greater than the length of the conductive strips, in order to improve the dielectric properties between two conductive strips, and thereby improve the high voltage resistance of the bridging strip as a whole.
  • each conductive strip has two bridging terminals; the two bridging terminals are respectively disposed at two ends, in the extension direction, of one conductive strip.
  • the lengths of the conductive strips in the extension direction are equal, and the bridging terminals at the same side, in the extension direction, of the conductive strips are arranged to be spaced apart in sequence in the extension direction.
  • the design described above is adopted, the arrangement of all bridging terminals on the housing is facilitated.
  • the lengths of the insulating plates in the extension direction are equal.
  • the adoption of such a design benefits the overall configuration of the bridging strip.
  • the insulating plates run through the accommodating cavity in the extension direction, so the maximum creepage distance can be provided.
  • the housing sequentially comprises a main body housing and a base plate.
  • the main body housing forms the accommodating cavity, and the base plate can close the accommodating cavity.
  • That side of the base plate which faces the accommodating cavity is provided with multiple pairs of support pieces; one pair of support pieces corresponds to one conductive strip, and the support pieces can abut the conductive strips in the mounting direction.
  • the support pieces help to position the conductive strips.
  • the insulating plate can extend between two support pieces which are adjacent in the arrangement direction.
  • the design described above makes the overall structure more stable.
  • That side of the base plate which faces the accommodating cavity is also provided with two rows of positioning pieces; the two rows of positioning pieces are disposed on two sides of multiple insulating plates in the arrangement direction.
  • the present invention also provides a changeover switch assembly, comprising a changeover switch and a bridging strip.
  • the changeover switch has multiple output terminals, and the bridging terminals of the bridging strip can be connected to the output terminals.
  • first and second are merely used to differentiate between parts, not to indicate their order or degree of importance, etc.
  • Fig. 1 is a schematic structural diagram intended to explain a schematic embodiment of a bridging strip.
  • the bridging strip comprises a housing 12, with other components disposed in the housing; see fig. 2 for details.
  • the housing 12 is formed with an accommodating cavity 123, the accommodating cavity 123 extending in an extension direction X in the figure.
  • the bridging strip further comprises four conductive strips 14 and three insulating plates 16.
  • the four conductive strips 14 are disposed in the housing 12 so as to be spaced apart in sequence in an arrangement direction Y that is perpendicular to the extension direction X, each conductive strip 14 having two bridging terminals 142 which are arranged in sequence in the extension direction X and can project from the housing 12.
  • One insulating plate 16 is disposed in each gap of the four conductive strips 14 to separate two adjacent conductive strips 14 in an insulating manner, and the length of the insulating plates 16 in the extension direction X is greater than the length of the conductive strips in the extension direction X; fig. 3 may be referred to at the same time.
  • the creepage distance of the conductive strips 14 in the extension direction X is increased, because the length of the insulating plates in the extension direction X is greater than the length of the conductive strips 14, in order to improve the dielectric properties between two conductive strips 14, and thereby improve the high voltage resistance of the bridging strip as a whole.
  • the quantities of conductive strips 14 and insulating plates 16 are not limited to those shown in the figures.
  • each conductive strip 14 has two bridging terminals 142; the two bridging terminals 142 are respectively disposed at two ends, in the extension direction X, of one conductive strip 14.
  • the two bridging terminals 142 are suitable for use with a changeover switch controlling the switching of two power supplies or loads.
  • each conductive strip 14 could also be designed with a greater number of bridging terminals 142 in order to suit a changeover switch controlling the switching of more than two power supplies or loads; furthermore, the bridging terminals 142 need not be disposed at the ends of the conductive strip 14.
  • the lengths of the insulating plates 16 in the extension direction X are equal.
  • the adoption of such a design benefits the overall configuration of the bridging strip; in particular, as a result, the insulating plates 16 run through the accommodating cavity 123 in the extension direction X, i.e. the two ends, in the extension direction X, of each insulating plate 16 respectively abut the housing 12, so that the maximum creepage distance can be provided.
  • the lengths of the insulating plates 16 in the extension direction X could also be unequal.
  • the housing 12 sequentially comprises a main body housing 122 and a base plate 124.
  • the main body housing 122 forms the accommodating cavity 123
  • the base plate 124 can close the accommodating cavity 123.
  • the design described above aids the overall assembly of the bridging strip, e.g. see fig. 4 .
  • that side of the base plate 124 which faces the accommodating cavity 123 is provided with four pairs of support pieces 125.
  • One pair of support pieces 125 corresponds to one conductive strip 14 (only one is marked in the figure), i.e. it can be seen from the figure that one pair of support pieces 125 correspond to each other in the extension direction X.
  • Fig. 5 may be referred to at the same time; the support pieces 125 can abut the conductive strips 14 in the mounting direction Z. The support pieces 125 help to position the conductive strips 14.
  • the insulating plates 16 can extend between two support pieces 125 which are adjacent in the arrangement direction Y.
  • the length of the insulating plates 16 in the mounting direction Z is also greater than that of the conductive strips 14 in order to increase the creepage distance of adjacent conductive strips 14 in the mounting direction Z, and improve the dielectric properties between two conductive strips 14.
  • the support pieces 125 can restrict the positioning of the insulating plates 16 and conductive strips 14 in the arrangement direction Y, making the overall structure more stable.
  • That side of the base plate 124 which faces the accommodating cavity 123 is also provided with two rows of positioning pieces 126.
  • the two rows of positioning pieces 126 are disposed on two sides of multiple insulating plates 16 in the arrangement direction Y, and may be used to further restrict the positioning of the insulating plates 16 and conductive strips 14 in the arrangement direction Y, making the overall structure more stable.
  • the present invention also provides a changeover switch assembly comprising, as shown in fig. 6 , a changeover switch 20 and a bridging strip 10 as described above.
  • the changeover switch 20 has multiple output terminals 22.
  • the bridging terminals 142 of the bridging strip 10 can be connected to the output terminals 22.
