Description

本発明は、回路遮断器の遮断特性を調整する調整構造に関し、特にバイメタル片を備えた回路遮断器のバイメタル調整構造に関する。   The present invention relates to an adjustment structure for adjusting the breaking characteristics of a circuit breaker, and more particularly to a bimetal adjustment structure for a circuit breaker provided with a bimetal piece.

回路遮断器の引き外し方式には、熱動形、熱動電磁形、完全電磁形、電子式等があり、このうち熱動形、熱動電磁形にはバイメタル片が使用されている。バイメタル片を用いた引き外し機構は、バイメタルの熱変形による湾曲作用を利用してラッチを解除させ、遮断動作させているが、このバイメタルを使用した構造は、遮断動作特性にばらつきが発生し易いため、製造段階でバイメタル片と掛合片の隙間(ギャップ)を調整してばらつきを無くす作業を必要としている。この調整はねじを使用して行われ、掛合片側にねじを取り付けてギャップを調整する構成(例えば、特許文献1参照)、或いはねじによりバイメタル片の傾きを変えてギャップを調整する構成(例えば、特許文献2参照)が広く実施されているが、バイメタル片の傾きを変えてギャップを調整する構成の方がコンパクトに構成できるため近年の小型化された回路遮断器に採用されている。   Circuit breaker tripping methods include a thermal type, a thermal electromagnetic type, a complete electromagnetic type, and an electronic type. Among these, a bimetal piece is used for the thermal type and the thermal electromagnetic type. The tripping mechanism using the bimetal piece uses the bending action caused by the thermal deformation of the bimetal to release the latch and performs the shut-off operation. However, the structure using this bimetal tends to vary in the shut-off operation characteristics. Therefore, it is necessary to adjust the gap (gap) between the bimetal piece and the engaging piece at the manufacturing stage to eliminate the variation. This adjustment is performed using a screw, and a configuration for adjusting the gap by attaching a screw to the engagement piece side (see, for example, Patent Document 1) or a configuration for adjusting the gap by changing the inclination of the bimetal piece by the screw (for example, However, since the configuration in which the gap is adjusted by changing the inclination of the bimetal piece can be configured more compactly, it has been adopted in recent miniaturized circuit breakers.

しかしながら、バイメタル片の傾きを変えてギャップを調整する構成は、バイメタル片が遮断器ケース内底部に配設された導体バーの端部を上方に折曲して形成された起立部の上端に直接固着され、調整ねじが起立部に押圧し、調整ねじを進退させてギャップを調整する構造であるため、調整ねじを過度に締めると導体バーは元の形状に戻らなくなってしまうという問題があった。そこでこの問題を解決する方法としては、起立部を板バネで形成する方法が考えられるが、この方法では調整ねじの過度の締め込みにより起立部が変形する問題は解決できるが、起立部を形成する板バネの板厚が導体バーの板厚より薄くなってしまって電流の流れが悪いために発熱が大きくなり、温度上昇が高くなったり、遮断器ケースが変形し、最悪の場合、発火に至る虞がある。また、従来の構成は調整ねじを支持する支持片がバイメタル片と別体に構成されるため、ケースが周囲温度により膨張/収縮すると調整が狂い、更にバイメタル片と掛合片の位置も変動するためギャップの変動が大きくなるという問題があった。   However, the configuration in which the gap is adjusted by changing the inclination of the bimetal piece is directly on the upper end of the standing part formed by bending the end of the conductor bar disposed on the inner bottom of the breaker case upward. Because the structure is fixed, the adjustment screw is pressed against the upright part, and the adjustment screw is advanced and retracted to adjust the gap, if the adjustment screw is tightened excessively, the conductor bar will not return to its original shape. . Therefore, as a method of solving this problem, a method of forming the upright portion with a leaf spring can be considered, but this method can solve the problem that the upright portion deforms due to excessive tightening of the adjusting screw, but the upright portion is formed. The plate spring is thinner than the conductor bar and the current flow is poor, so the heat generation increases, the temperature rises, the circuit breaker case deforms, and in the worst case, ignition occurs. There is a risk of reaching. In addition, in the conventional configuration, since the support piece for supporting the adjustment screw is formed separately from the bimetal piece, the adjustment is incorrect when the case expands / contracts due to the ambient temperature, and the position of the bimetal piece and the engagement piece also varies. There was a problem that the fluctuation of the gap became large.

本発明は、請求項1に記載の発明によれば、複数の電路を有して、個々の電路にバイメタル片を備えて熱動形或いは熱動電磁形の引き外し構造を具備し、バイメタル片が過電流発生を受けて掛合する掛合片とのギャップを調整ねじにより調整可能とした回路遮断器のバイメタル調整構造であって、バイメタル片は先端側に接続した第1可撓導線と基端側に接続した第2可撓導線とで電路に介在して成り、弾性体にバイメタル片の基部を固着し、調整ねじを弾性体に押圧するように設け、弾性体に対して調整ねじを進退させることでギャップを調整することを特徴とする。   According to the first aspect of the present invention, there are provided a plurality of electric circuits, each of which is provided with a bimetal piece, and a thermal type or thermal electromagnetic type tripping structure is provided. Is a bimetal adjustment structure of a circuit breaker in which a gap between the engagement piece and the engagement piece that is engaged by the occurrence of an overcurrent can be adjusted by an adjustment screw, and the bimetal piece is connected to the distal end side of the first flexible conducting wire and the proximal end side The second flexible conductive wire connected to the cable is interposed in the electric circuit, the base of the bimetal piece is fixed to the elastic body, the adjustment screw is pressed against the elastic body, and the adjustment screw is advanced and retracted relative to the elastic body. This is characterized in that the gap is adjusted.

請求項2に記載の発明によれば、請求項1に記載の回路遮断器のバイメタル調整構造において、調整ねじを螺入支持する支持板に弾性体を介してバイメタル片を固着したことを特徴とする。   According to a second aspect of the present invention, in the bimetal adjusting structure for a circuit breaker according to the first aspect, the bimetal piece is fixed to the support plate for screwing and supporting the adjusting screw through the elastic body. To do.

請求項1に記載の発明によれば、バイメタル片を支持する弾性体に電流が流れないので電路が異常に発熱することがなく、異常発熱による温度上昇やケースの変形等が起こらないという効果がある。   According to the first aspect of the present invention, since no current flows through the elastic body that supports the bimetal piece, the electric circuit does not generate heat abnormally, and there is an effect that temperature rise due to abnormal heat generation, deformation of the case, and the like do not occur. is there.

請求項2に記載の発明によれば、請求項1に記載の発明の効果に加えて、バイメタル片と調整ねじを支持する支持板が一体に形成されるので周囲温度によってケースが膨張/収縮しても調整が狂わず、ケースの膨張/収縮によるギャップの変動を小さくすることができるという効果がある。   According to the invention described in claim 2, in addition to the effect of the invention described in claim 1, since the support plate supporting the bimetal piece and the adjusting screw is integrally formed, the case expands / contracts depending on the ambient temperature. However, adjustment does not go out of the way, and there is an effect that fluctuation of the gap due to expansion / contraction of the case can be reduced.

尚、この回路遮断器は2本の電路を有する2極形回路遮断器を示すもので、電源側端子1、負荷側端子2、開閉接点部4、バイメタル片8は、何れも対で設けられている。そして、負荷側端子2を設けた図面右側を前方、電源側端子1を設けた図面左側を後方、操作ハンドル3取付部を上部として以下説明する。   This circuit breaker is a two-pole circuit breaker having two electric circuits, and the power supply side terminal 1, the load side terminal 2, the switching contact portion 4 and the bimetal piece 8 are all provided in pairs. ing. The following description will be made with the right side of the drawing provided with the load side terminal 2 as the front, the left side of the drawing provided with the power supply side terminal 1 as the rear, and the operation handle 3 mounting portion as the upper part.

可動接触子5及び固定接触子6は上下方向に配設され、上部に接点(可動接点5a、固定接点6a)が設けられている。可動接触子5は下端部を支点として上部が前後に揺動可能に設置され、第1可撓導線14によりバイメタル片8に接続されている。一方、固定接触子6は電源側端子1の端子金具と一体に形成され、ケース13内に固定されている。そして、可動接触子5は開閉機構部7の開閉操作を受けて前後動し、可動接点5aと固定接点6aとの間で接触/開離を行い、電路の通電/遮断が行われる。   The movable contact 5 and the fixed contact 6 are arranged in the vertical direction, and contacts (movable contact 5a, fixed contact 6a) are provided in the upper part. The movable contact 5 is installed so that the upper part can swing back and forth with the lower end as a fulcrum, and is connected to the bimetal piece 8 by a first flexible conductive wire 14. On the other hand, the fixed contact 6 is formed integrally with the terminal fitting of the power supply side terminal 1 and is fixed in the case 13. Then, the movable contact 5 moves back and forth in response to the opening / closing operation of the opening / closing mechanism section 7, contacts / releases between the movable contact 5 a and the fixed contact 6 a, and energizes / cuts off the electric circuit.

バイメタル片8は前後方向に配設され、後方基端部が調整ねじ11を螺入支持する支持板17に弾性体10を介して支持され、自由端とした先端が斜め上方に向けて配設されている。第1可撓導線14はそのバイメタル片8の先端側中間部に溶接され、また、第2可撓導線15の一端がバイメタル片9の基端側中間部に溶接され、第2可撓導線15の他端が負荷側端子2の端子金具から延設された導体バー16に溶接されてバイメタル片8が電路の一部を構成するようになっている。一方、バイメタル片8が掛合する掛合片9はバイメタル片8が接触する第1掛合部9aと、電磁引き外し素子12が接触する第2掛合部9bを備えている。   The bimetal piece 8 is disposed in the front-rear direction, the rear base end portion is supported via the elastic body 10 on the support plate 17 into which the adjusting screw 11 is screwed and supported, and the free end is disposed obliquely upward. Has been. The first flexible conductive wire 14 is welded to the intermediate portion on the distal end side of the bimetal piece 8, and one end of the second flexible conductive wire 15 is welded to the intermediate portion on the proximal end side of the bimetal piece 9. The other end is welded to a conductor bar 16 extending from the terminal fitting of the load side terminal 2 so that the bimetal piece 8 constitutes a part of the electric circuit. On the other hand, the engagement piece 9 with which the bimetal piece 8 is engaged includes a first engagement portion 9a with which the bimetal piece 8 contacts and a second engagement portion 9b with which the electromagnetic tripping element 12 contacts.

調整ねじ11は、電源側端子1の下部に前方に向けて配置され、ケース13内に組み付けられた支持板17のねじ孔17aに螺入支持され、調整ねじ11自体もケース13内に埋設するように組み付けられている。支持板17はねじ孔17aが形成された垂直部17bの下端から前方に向けて水平部17cが延設されて略L字状に形成され、水平部17cに弾性体10が溶接される。   The adjustment screw 11 is disposed on the lower side of the power supply side terminal 1 so as to face forward, is screwed and supported in the screw hole 17a of the support plate 17 assembled in the case 13, and the adjustment screw 11 itself is also embedded in the case 13. It is assembled as follows. The support plate 17 is formed in a substantially L shape with a horizontal portion 17c extending forward from the lower end of the vertical portion 17b in which the screw hole 17a is formed, and the elastic body 10 is welded to the horizontal portion 17c.

弾性体10は板バネの両端を反対方向に折曲形成して成り、中間部が支持板17の垂直部17bと平行に配設されて、下端部が水平部17cに溶接され、上端部にバイメタル片8が溶接されている。ケース13の背面には、調整ねじ11を回転操作して進退させるための操作孔18が設けられ、調整ねじ11の先端が弾性体10の中間部に当接するように構成されている。   The elastic body 10 is formed by bending both ends of the leaf spring in opposite directions, an intermediate portion is disposed in parallel with the vertical portion 17b of the support plate 17, a lower end portion is welded to the horizontal portion 17c, and an upper end portion is formed. The bimetal piece 8 is welded. On the back surface of the case 13, an operation hole 18 for rotating the adjustment screw 11 to advance and retreat is provided, and the tip of the adjustment screw 11 is configured to abut against an intermediate portion of the elastic body 10.

調整ねじ11が螺入操作されたら、弾性体10を前方に押圧する。こうして押圧された弾性体10は上部が前方に傾倒するため、弾性体10の上端に取り付けられたバイメタル片8が連動して傾倒動作する。その結果、前方に延びた先端が下方に傾倒し、掛合片9との間のギャップGが小さくなる。   When the adjustment screw 11 is screwed in, the elastic body 10 is pressed forward. Since the upper portion of the elastic body 10 thus pressed tilts forward, the bimetal piece 8 attached to the upper end of the elastic body 10 tilts in conjunction with it. As a result, the tip extending forward is tilted downward, and the gap G between the engagement piece 9 is reduced.

このように構成された回路遮断器は次のように動作する。図1に示すオフ状態から操作ハンドル3を後方に回動してオン操作すると、開閉機構部7が可動接触子5を操作して固定接触子6に接触させ、回路遮断器はオン状態となる。この状態は開閉機構部7内のラッチ機構の作用で維持され、電路に異常電流が流れるとラッチが解除されて開閉機構部7は遮断動作する。この異常電流のうち、過電流に対してはバイメタル片8が変形(湾曲)することで検知され、変形して掛合片9の第1掛合部9aに当接すると掛合片9が回動し、ラッチが解除されて遮断動作する。また、短絡電流に対しては、電磁引き外し素子12が動作して、可動鉄片12aが掛合片9の第2掛合部9bに掛合し、過電流発生の場合と同様にラッチが解除されて遮断動作する。   The circuit breaker configured as described above operates as follows. When the operation handle 3 is rotated backward from the off state shown in FIG. 1 and turned on, the opening / closing mechanism unit 7 operates the movable contact 5 to contact the fixed contact 6, and the circuit breaker is turned on. . This state is maintained by the action of the latch mechanism in the opening / closing mechanism section 7, and when an abnormal current flows in the electric circuit, the latch is released and the opening / closing mechanism section 7 performs a blocking operation. Among these abnormal currents, the overcurrent is detected by deformation (curving) of the bimetal piece 8, and when it is deformed and abuts on the first engagement portion 9a of the engagement piece 9, the engagement piece 9 rotates, The latch is released and the operation is interrupted. Further, for the short-circuit current, the electromagnetic tripping element 12 operates, the movable iron piece 12a is engaged with the second engagement portion 9b of the engagement piece 9, and the latch is released and shut off in the same manner as in the case of overcurrent occurrence. Operate.

このように、調整ねじ11を螺入支持する支持板17に弾性体10を介してバイメタル片8を設け、弾性体10に調整ねじ11を進退させてギャップGを調整し、弾性体10には電流が流れないようにバイメタル片8と電路とを可撓導線14,15で接続したので、弾性体10が異常に発熱することがなく、温度上昇やケースの変形等の問題が起きない。また、バイメタル片8と調整ねじ11を支持する支持板を一体に形成したので周囲温度によってケース13が膨張/収縮しても調整が狂わず、ケース13の膨張/収縮によるギャップの変動を小さくすることができる。   As described above, the bimetal piece 8 is provided on the support plate 17 through which the adjustment screw 11 is screwed and supported via the elastic body 10, and the adjustment screw 11 is advanced and retracted to the elastic body 10 to adjust the gap G. Since the bimetal piece 8 and the electric circuit are connected by the flexible conductive wires 14 and 15 so that no current flows, the elastic body 10 does not generate heat abnormally, and problems such as temperature rise and case deformation do not occur. Further, since the support plate for supporting the bimetal piece 8 and the adjusting screw 11 is integrally formed, even if the case 13 expands / contracts due to the ambient temperature, the adjustment does not go wrong, and the fluctuation of the gap due to the expansion / contraction of the case 13 is reduced. be able to.

尚、調整ねじ11をケース13背部から調整する構成としているが、調整ねじ11を上向きに配置して、水平なバイメタル片8の基端を上方に押圧するようにしても良い。この場合、操作孔18はケース13底部に設けることになる。   Although the adjustment screw 11 is adjusted from the back of the case 13, the adjustment screw 11 may be arranged upward to press the base end of the horizontal bimetal piece 8 upward. In this case, the operation hole 18 is provided at the bottom of the case 13.
