CONTACT MEMBER FOR ELECTRIC SWITCHES Filed Dec. 11, 1924 Inven7o2a Patented June 10, 1930 UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE GUSTAV JANSSON, OF WOLLASTON, MASSACHUSETTS, ASSIGNOB, BY MESNE ASSIGN- MENTS, TO COND'IT ELECTRICAL MANUFACTURING CORPORATION, OF BOSTON, MASSACHUSETTS, A CORPORATION OF MASSACHUSETTS CONTACT MEMBER FOR ELECTRIC SWITCHES Application filed December 11, 1924. Serial No. 755,311.
i; great extent of contact surface, whereby to reduce thewear on the contact members.
A further object is to provide an improved form of contact member.
A yet further object is generally to improve the construction and operation of electric switches.
Fig. 1 is a sectional view of the relatively separable contact members of an oil immersed electric switch embodying the invention.
Fig. 2 is a view of the contact members in a separated position thereof.
Fig. 3 is a plan view of the movable contact member.
As here shown, the stationary contact member 10 immersed in a bath of oil or other arc-quenchingfluid is supported at the lower end of an insulator 12 and connected electrically to the switch terminal 14 through the interposed conducting block 16. Said contact member is more or less hollow and may be formed with an internal screwthread 18 at its upper end for detachable electrical and mechanical connectionwith the external screw-thread of said block 16. Said stationary contact member is approximately internally cylindrical in the upper or bowl portion 19 thereof and may be formed or provided with an annular contracted portion, or throat, 20 intermediate its ends, into which throat the upper cylindrical portion gradually merges. The contact member is provided with a downwardly and outwardly flaring portion, or nozzle, 22 below said throat, which flaring portion forms an arcing surface about which the circuit-interrupting arc is forced to travel, whereby to distribute the wear over a relatively large extent of cold metal; and the cold metal asat said primary contact member and thence pass to the tubular contact member.
The movable contact member 28 is carried at the upper end of a switch rod 29. Said movable contact member is adapted to be moved into and out of said stationary tubular contact member and to have its upper end 30 normally in contact with the primary contact member 24. Said movable contact member has such dimensions that it can move in and out of said tubular contact member and be free from contact therewith. Preferably said movable contact member is more or less barrel-shaped or has an enlarged middle portion 32 which is adapted to be disposed in close proximity, although not in direct contact, with the throat 20 of said tubular con tact member, when the switch is closed and the contact members are in the relative position illustrated in Fig. 1.
WVhen the contact members are separated under load, the circuit-interrupting arc is first drawn between the primary contact member 24 and the upper end of the movable contact member. As said latter contact member continues to move downwardly the arc passes from said primary contact member to some part of the inner surface of said tubular contact member,by reason of the change in effective distance between the separable contact members, due to the shapes thereof, and also due to the expulsion effect on the are by reason of the increased fluid pressure within said bowl, due to the volatilization of the oil within said tubular contact member.
As the movable contact member passes out of the tubular contact member, the arc passes from the throat 20 to the nozzle 22 of said tubular contact member and also from the enlarged middle portion 32 of the movable contact member to the upper end thereof, and, at some instant, may occupy the relative position illustrated in Fig. 2, wherein a indicates the are.
As thus arranged, the arc is caused to travel over a substantial extent of cold metal surfaces which assists in reducing the duration of the arc and provides increased life of the contact members. The expulsion effect of the tubular contact member may be exerted in the direction of the arrow 6 and may serve to distend the arc and thereby to assist in rupturing it.
Hydraulic means are also provided to rotate the are about the contact members whereby to increase the extent of cold surface in contact with the are, thereby further to reduce the duration of the arc and increase the life of the contact members and also to present fresh masses of cold oil to the action of the arc, whereby to assist in quenching it rapidly.
Said hydraulic means includes an impeller 34 fixed to the lower end of said movable contact member 28. Said impeller is provided ith vanes 36 which extend beyond the movable contact member. Said vanes are suitably curved or shaped to act upon the body of oil through which the impeller is moved, as the contact members are separated, and impart a swirling motion to the body of oil surrounding the movable contact member, as indicated by the arrow 0. Said swirling oil current acts upon the arc and tends to rotat it about and in contact with the flaring lower end of the tubular contact member 10, and also about the movable contact member, thereby to distribute the action of the are over a relatively large area of the cold contacts and sweep away the gases and vapors generated from the oil and surrounding the arc and present fresh and cold masses of oil to the are whereby to assist materially in quenching it.
The construction may be otherwise modified without departing from the spirit of the invention.
