Definitions

  • This invention relates to a device for interrupting an electric current and more particularly to a device for igniting and extinguishing at regular intervals the light of an 5 electric lamp provided with a thermal interrupter.
  • the invention is based on the fact that sometimes the interrupter contacts are heated to such an extent that they become welded 1 together so that the working of the interrupter entirely ceases. This occurs in particular in the case of interrupters which serve to ignite and extinguish the light of an electric lamp at regular intervals. With such 15 a device the switching-on current is many times greater than the current required, for
  • the chrome-iron may contain admixtures of Mn, Ni, Co, C and 'Si without prejudicially influencing the working of the interrupter.
  • a device for interrupting an electric current comprising a thermal interrupter and contacts being provided on said interrupter, one of said contacts consisting of nickel,
