Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a quick disconnect switch, i. H. a switch with which you can disconnect an electrical circuit particularly quickly, even with high currents and high separation voltages.
  • the switch is suitable for both DC and AC circuits.
  • the switch usually uses a small amount of an explosive material for this purpose.
  • Such switches are sometimes also referred to as pyrotechnic disconnection devices or also as electrical interruption switching elements.
  • they can be used in the increasingly important field of e-mobility, in particular to protect electric drives, especially in electric cars, electric trucks or electric buses. If an appropriately powered vehicle has an accident, it is important and necessary to quickly disconnect the power source from the vehicle wiring.
  • the corresponding questions also arise when propelling ships with electric motors or, in the meantime, when propelling aircraft with electric motors, but also when it comes to corresponding tasks in control cabinets in general.
  • circuit breakers use the action of propellant charges on a piston. After its acceleration and the pressure exerted on it, they are in any case able to quickly interrupt a circuit, even when high currents are flowing.
  • European patent application EP 563 947 A1 discloses a method for securing circuits which carry high currents and also discloses a high-current fuse element. A pyrotechnic charge is ignited to cut the conductor. This accelerates a cutting punch. The cutting punch mechanically cuts through a conductor section.
  • German Offenlegungsschrift DE 196 16 993 A1 discloses a pyrotechnic fuse element for electrical circuits.
  • a pyrotechnic fuse element for electrical circuits.
  • German patent DE 44 38 157 likewise discloses a pyrotechnic separating device which is suitable for accelerating an active part, which essentially has the shape of a piston, in order to cut through a conductor.
  • German Offenlegungsschrift DE 44 02 994 A1 discloses an electrical safety switch for motor vehicles that can be described as piston-free.
  • two conductors are connected to one another in such a way that one conductor protrudes with a tapered end into the receiving space of another conductor.
  • a gas generator which acts as a propellant charge, is provided in this receiving space.
  • exhaust gases which are produced by a propellant charge, escape into the then open space between two conductors.
  • the separation of the conductors is not in a well-defined way. If the separation is inadequate, arcing can therefore occur very quickly.
  • the present invention would like to offer a quick disconnector that can be manufactured inexpensively and reliably, which avoids the disadvantages of the prior art.
  • the disconnector can work piston-free, so that a disconnection with less accelerated mass is possible.
  • the separation is intended to bring the conductor to be separated into a reliable, predefined separation state and thereby minimize arc effects, as they are especially in direct current circuits (DC- Circuits) would occur when the circuit was disconnected.
  • DC- Circuits direct current circuits
  • the quick-disconnect switch should have a power supply contact and a power discharge contact. However, these designations should not necessarily define a current direction; as a rule, the disconnector can operate independently of a specific current direction. These contacts can be provided directly on the disconnector, or the disconnector can also have line sections which in turn first have these contacts. The two contacts are connected by a conductor. This is often a copper or aluminum conductor. Another material, in particular another metallic or at least electrically conductive material, is also suitable.
  • the quick disconnector has a separation chamber. This in turn has an interior.
  • the interior can have different shapes, often it is cuboid.
  • the conductor is led through the separation chamber.
  • the conductor is preferably passed through the separating chamber precisely or essentially in the middle. This results in a mirror-symmetrical position at least in one sectional plane.
  • an expansion vessel is provided in the separation chamber.
  • the expansion vessel can contain an explosive charge.
  • the explosive charge can be accommodated in a vessel adjoining the expansion vessel, for example together with an ignition charge.
  • the explosive charge should be able to expand the expansion vessel in the event of an explosion.
  • the explosive charge is therefore not provided directly in the separation chamber, but in its own vessel.
  • the explosion of the explosive charge causes the mechanical separation of the conductor. This takes place with expansion of the expansion vessel.
  • the expansion vessel can completely enclose the explosive charge even after the explosion.
  • the disconnector can be built gas-tight and can therefore be used at very low ambient pressures (e.g. in aviation). With switches from the state of the art, exhaust gas must be able to escape. Therefore, these switches cannot be built gas-tight and can be used at very low ambient pressures.
  • the expansion vessel can comprise a bellows, for example. Such a bellows facilitates rapid expansion.
  • the expansion vessel should be able to expand, for example, to more than 200%, 300%, 400%, 500% or up to 1000% of its initial volume. This should preferably be done non-destructively.
  • the expansion vessel can also be elastic, so that its volume is reduced again after the explosion. However, elasticity is not required.
  • the expansion vessel can expediently be made of metal or of a non-metal. Appropriate metals are steels, generally thin steels, and in particular also stainless steel. Alternatively, the expansion vessel can also be made of bronze or copper. In the case of non-metals, rubber, natural rubber, silicone or even TPE plastic are useful. Plastics such as polyoxymethylene (POM), polyamide 6 (PA 6) or ABS can also be considered.
  • an electrically conductive material is used for the expansion vessel, this usually has to be electrically stripped on the outside by an electrically non-conductive layer so that the remaining contact pieces are not electrically bridged after the conductor has been separated.
  • the expansion vessel is expediently lighter than the conductor section running in the separating chamber. This low weight enables the explosive charge to expand rapidly, also in relation to the mass of the conductor section to be severed. A rather heavy expansion vessel would cause the conductor to be severed in the manner of a piston. A metal expansion vessel can be placed in be designed accordingly.
  • the conductor separation for example by means of a sharp-edged piston-like section, would not be necessary in the context of the present invention.
  • the conductors are separated mainly through the rapid expansion of the explosive material in the given space of the separation chamber, in other words through a pressure wave.
  • the conductor runs along an axis in a first direction through the separating chamber.
  • the separating chamber and in particular the position of the expansion vessel can expediently be designed in such a way that the separation takes place with a completely, substantially, or at least predominant radial component in relation to this axis.
  • a conductor section to be separated can then be displaced radially.
  • the conductor can be bent so that only a certain section is displaced radially, or a section can be separated from the conductor on two sides, which is displaced radially as a whole.
  • the conductor softens mechanical weakening elements.
  • Such weakening elements reduce the conductor material to be separated without significantly increasing the electrical volume resistance of the conductor material.
  • These weakening elements can include bores, grooves, partial cuts or notches. They also serve to make the separation of the conductor predictable in advance, to facilitate it and to organize it in advance in a favorable manner.
  • Drilling has the added benefit of allowing air to flow through the conductor. If the conductor moves quickly or if there is a spacing between the conductors, there is less flow resistance. Even if the conductor moves into an extinguishing medium, the flow resistance and thus the resistance to the desired translational movement of the conductor can be significantly reduced through the bore.
  • holes caused by the removal of the material are weak points at which a break point in the material can occur particularly easily.
  • weakening elements in the form of grooves or notches can be provided.
  • a groove is to be understood here as a slot of a certain depth (which appears as a blind hole in cross section), but which also has a uniform thickness in cross section.
  • a notch should be understood to mean a depression which is wider near the conductor surface than at a greater depth. Both are suitable attenuation elements. Notches advantageously allow entire sections of the conductor to be displaced radially. If only one groove is provided, in particular a narrow groove, the radial displacement can be made difficult or hindered by tilting and tilting.
  • the conductor can also have a zone of increased resistance.
  • the conductor diameter can be reduced in such a zone.
  • the weakening elements enumerated above can expediently be used to increase the electrical resistance. This leads to electrical heating of the conductor.
  • the resulting heat can be used to ignite explosive material lying there.
  • the explosive material is preferably positioned in the vicinity of the zone of increased resistance and in good thermal contact with it.
  • the material of the expansion vessel can be adapted to this task as a whole, or the expansion vessel has in sections, namely at the contact surface with the conductor, a material that differs from the rest of the expansion vessel. Suitable materials here are copper, brass, aluminum, silver or bronze.
  • an additional contact layer is applied to the expansion vessel.
  • a contact layer made of copper could be used for particularly good heat conduction. In this way, the heat-induced separation can be adapted particularly precisely to the requirements of the circuit.
  • This expedient design shows further advantages of using an expansion vessel.
  • the piston must almost inevitably be applied between the explosive charge and the conductor.
  • the piston prevents the explosive charge from being positioned close to the conductor. This is possible by dispensing with a piston.
  • the triggering of the circuit disconnection by heating the conductor is particularly advantageous. Due to the passive triggering of the explosive charge or the isolating switch, it enables overheating of the circuit or a short-circuited power source due to excessively high currents, without the need for complicated recording and evaluation of the currents and / or switching.
  • an explosive charge can be provided in a blind hole or a similar recess in the conductor. This explosive charge then heats up quickly through direct contact with the conductor. Their explosion can cause the remaining explosive charge in the separation vessel to explode through heat transfer.
  • a bore can also be provided, for example, through which a jet of hot gas reaches the interior of the expansion vessel. Such a bore is not absolutely necessary, since an explosion of explosive material, which is provided inside the expansion vessel, can also be triggered quickly and reliably by thermal heating through the material of the expansion vessel.
  • the separating chamber can comprise an extinguishing medium.
  • This extinguishing medium can for example be arranged below the conductor, that is to say on the side of the conductor facing away from the expansion vessel - or it fills more or less the entire interior of the disconnector outside the expansion vessel. Fill levels of 10% to almost 100% of the free internal volume of the disconnector are advantageous here.
  • the present invention also relates to a method for the emergency disconnection of an electrical circuit, which comprises the following steps: a. Passing the current through a section of conductor b. Passing the conductor section through a separation chamber c. Providing an expansion vessel in the separation chamber d. Holding an explosive material on or in the expansion vessel e. Igniting the explosive material f. Severing the conductor section
  • the explosive material should be held on or in the expansion vessel in such a way that the expansion vessel can be expanded by the reaction of the explosive material.
  • the steps are preferably carried out in context and in the order in which they are listed.
  • the method is to be understood in relation to the quick disconnector according to the invention. This means that features of the design of the quick disconnector are to be transferred analogously to the method, and characteristics of the method are to be transferred analogously to characteristics of the quick disconnector.
  • a method in which the explosive material remains completely in the vessel after the explosion is also expedient.
  • a method is also expedient in which, after the conductor has been severed, a first conductor end and a second conductor end are produced, and the expansion vessel mechanically separates the first conductor end and the second conductor end.
  • the expansion vessel thus expands between the ends of the conductor.
  • mechanical separation should be understood to mean that the expansion vessel cuts through an imaginary connecting line between the conductor ends and / or cuts along the original axial axis of the conductor.
  • a method in which the explosive material is ignited by an electrical ignition pulse is also expedient.
  • the explosive material can be ignited by heating a conductor section.
  • a conductor section with an increased electrical resistance comes into consideration. Expediently, it is also a question of a method in which the expansion vessel fits wholly or in sections against the inner walls of the separating chamber.
  • the expansion vessel is located in a partial volume of the separation chamber.
  • This partial volume expediently makes up less than 80% or also less than 60% or also less than 40% of the total volume of the separation chamber.
  • the separation chamber should also have a so-called first volume. This volume is also limited to the area that cuts the conductor in the middle and is perpendicular to the expansion direction of the expansion vessel.
  • the first volume should contain the expansion vessel. In relation to the first volume, it is useful if the expansion vessel occupies less than 80% or 60% or even 40% of the first volume.
  • the expansion vessel fills a larger volume of the separation chamber. It can fill almost the full volume of the separation chamber and then almost completely or completely cling to the inner walls of the separation chamber. Alternatively, this is done at least in sections. Nestling against the inner walls of the separation chamber and the appropriate selection and positioning of the expansion vessel make it easier for the expansion vessel walls not to burst or otherwise leak.
  • the expansion vessel then only has to move with the expanding front of the propellant material in the explosion phase until it hits a partition wall section. From this point in time, the pressure of the explosion is absorbed by the inner walls or at least one inner wall section of the separation chamber. Accordingly, although the walls of the expansion vessel must be able to withstand an explosion, they do not have to be overly stable.
  • the expansion vessel can then form a kind of balloon, which is designed for a one-time rapid expansion, but does not have to withstand large pressures, or at least does not necessarily have to withstand long-term.
  • An explosive charge is generally understood here to be a substance which, when activated, expands rapidly and strongly. There is a substance or also Mixture of substances in question, which can cause the expansion of the expansion vessel by internal pressure. This can generate gases or vapors.
  • Nitrocellulose powder or double base powder (these are mixtures of NC and NGL) are useful here, but above all the well-known igniting substances such as ZPP (zirconium potassium perchlorate), silver azide, hexogen or octogen.
  • Activation is usually carried out by a lighter or a detonator.
  • the igniter can contain a hot wire or an explosion wire, or it can be ignited by an electrical discharge.
  • a solid, liquid or other gaseous substance can also be added to a gas, in particular an oxidizing agent.
  • an explosion can also be triggered passively, that is, by simply heating an explosive.
  • explosive material can also be provided in two areas, whereby a first explosive material is initially made to explode and this explosion triggers the explosion of a second explosive material.
  • the optionally provided extinguishing agent should be matched to the explosive charge. Basically, it can be liquid, gaseous, gel-like, foam-like or multi-fiber.

  • the conductor 20 is equipped with various weakening elements, namely with the groove 22 and with bores 24.
  • the separating chamber 12 has a first volume Vi, which in this cross section is delimited at the bottom by the conductor 20 and is otherwise delimited by the walls of the separating chamber 12.
