Abstract

PURPOSE:To provide superior welding resistance, consumption resistance and arc shielding characteristics to an electrical contact by adding specified weight percentages of zinc, lithium and nickel to a silver matrix. CONSTITUTION:To a silver matrix are added about 1-7wt% (expressed in terms of zinc) zinc oxide, about 0.2-1.5wt% (expressed in terms of lithium) lithium oxide and about 0.1-1.0wt% nickel. Lithium improves the consumption resistance and welding resistance of a contact, and lithium and zinc improve the arc shielding characteristics. Nickel improves the consumption resistance and workability of the contact. Said effects are sufficiently produced only when zinc, lithium and nickel are added by said amounts.

Ni contact materials are used in various electrical devices such as electromagnetic contactors. Among these contact materials, the Ag-CdO contact material*Ag 5n02 contact material has excellent bath adhesion resistance and abrasion resistance, and the Ag-Ni contact material has excellent abrasion resistance and processability. However, when these contact materials are used in a no-fuse breaker, they fail due to the large current that flows during a short circuit, and the short-circuit breaking performance is poor because the arc is not cut sufficiently. was there.

As a result of repeated research to eliminate these drawbacks, the inventors made a silver base material contain zinc oxide, lithium oxide, and nickel, and adjusted the content so that zinc oxide was equal to zinc (Z).
n) Based on lithium (Li) standards, it should be 1-7% by weight (abbreviated as "regret"), lithium oxide should be 0.2-1.5%, and nickel should be 0.1-1.0% based on lithium (Li). It was discovered that, when selected, a contact material with excellent welding resistance, wear resistance, and arc interrupting performance could be obtained, and the present invention was completed.

That is, the present invention provides a contact material in which zinc oxide, lithium oxide, and nickel are contained in a silver base, wherein the content of zinc oxide is 1 to 7 on the basis of zinc, and the content of lithium oxide is 1 to 7 on the basis of zinc. The gist is a contact material in which the content of nickel is 0.2 to 1.5 based on lithium, and the nickel content is well over 0.1 to 1.0.

Zinc oxide and lithium oxide each have the effect of improving arc interrupting performance (making the arc easier to move and cutting the arc better), and using them together will further enhance this effect. be. Furthermore, lithium oxide also has the effect of strengthening the silver matrix and improving the bath adhesion resistance and abrasion resistance of the contact material.

However, when the content of zinc oxide is out of the range of 1 to 7 on the zinc basis, particularly when it exceeds 7, the effect of improving arc interrupting performance becomes small. When the zinc oxide content is less than 14, the welding resistance and abrasion resistance of the contact material will also be poor. Therefore, the content of zinc oxide is selected from 1 to 7 well based on zinc.

In addition, the content of lithium oxide is 0.2 on a lithium basis.
If the width is outside the range of 1.5 to 1.5, the effect of improving arc interrupting performance will be reduced as described above. Moreover, the effect of improving bath adhesion resistance and abrasion resistance becomes smaller when the content is less than +1.24. Therefore, the content of lithium oxide is selected to be approximately 0.2 to 1.5% based on lithium.

However, when the Ni content exceeds 1, Ni segregates in the Agg ground and the performance (welding resistance, wear resistance) of the contact material deteriorates. On the other hand, if the coefficient is less than 0.1, the crystal grain refinement effect becomes small.

Second, contact crab 20011. Opening crab 3411Ji + final number of openings and closings = 100,000 times (short-circuit test) As described above, the sample was assembled into a no-fuse breaker, a short-circuit test was conducted, and the arc sticking time was measured. This arc W arrival time is the time that the arc generated between a pair of contacts stays as it is, and the longer this time, the longer the time that the pair of contacts are connected by the arc,
Eventually, this will lead to thermal breakdown of the contacts. Therefore,
The shorter the arc stagnation time, the better.
