PROCESS OF MANUFACTURING ELECTRICAL CONTACT MEMBERS Filed Nov. 24, 1930 Patented May 9, v 1933 UNITED STATES Parent EMERSON" PU'GE, 0F DOWNERS GROVE, ILLINQIS, ASSIGNUR T63 WESTERN EEECTRIG COMPANY, INCORPORATED, 015 NEW YORK, N. Y., i-l CGRPORATIQN OF NEW YORK PROCESSOF MANUFACTURING FLJECTRIGAL CONTACT TQEMBERS Application filed November 24, 1930. Serial No. 497,784,
This invention relates to aprocess of manmetal with the sections of contact metal se ufacturing electrical contact members, and
more particularly to a process of manufacturing bimetallic contact elements.
It is an object of the present invention to provide an efficient process of manufacturmg composite bimetallic, electrical contacts, utilizing a minimum amount of contact metal.
In accordance with one embodiment, the invention contemplates a process of manufacturing bimetallic contact elements wherein contact metal, suchas platinum, palladium or alloys of either of these metals with gold or other of the precious metals particularly adaptable for electrical contact elements is formed into a substantially cylindrical strip or wire having a ridge longitudinally thereof, may be cut to predetermined lengths, and then welded to a base metal such as nickel silver, pure nickel or other metals having a high degree of resistance to corrosion at spaced intervals, which is formed in a strip or ribbon of substantially rectangular cross-section,
v and which is provided with two ridges extending longitudinally thereof. By having the longitudinal ridge on the wire of contact -metal, the current applied for welding purposes to the elements making up the composite contact is localized at the point of contact between the contact wire and the ribbon of base metal thereby insuring a strong welded union and avoiding the possibility of damaging the contact wire or base metal by the heat of the current required to form the weld. A
- composite contact element thus formed may then be secured to a contact spring of electrical apparatus by welding the base metal welding operation Fig. 2 is a plan view of the ribbon of base tion of the contact elements thereon in their completed form.
Referring now to the drawing wherein the same reference characters designate like parts throughout the several views, the numeral 6 indicates a strip or wire of precious metal of the type commonly used for contact metal in the contacts of electrical apparatus and is formed to a substantially circular cross-section having a rounded ridge 8 extending longitudinally thereof. After the wire 6 of contact metal has been formed to the above described shape, it is cut into predetermined lengths and combined, as shown in Fig. 2, with a strip 10 of base metal which may be nickel silver, pure nickel or other metals which have a high degree of resistance to corrosion, being positioned upon the base metal at spaced intervals with the ridge 8 of the wire 6 engaging the flat upper surface of the strip 10 which is substantially rectangular in cross-section and which has depending ridges 12 extending longitudinally thereof.
The wire 6 of contact metal and the strip 10 of base metal are shownin Fig. 1 engaged by electrodes '14 and. 16 electrically connected with a source of current supply 15 so that an electrical welding circuit may be completed through the electrode 14:, the wire 6 of contact metal and the strip 10 of base metal to the electrode 16 to weld the contact metal to the base metal. The electrode 14 engages that portion of the wire 6 away from the ridge 8, and the electrode 16 engages the under side of the base metal. Therefore, a welding current passing through the wire of contact metal and the strip of base metal will encounter its greatest resistance at the line of engagement of the ridge 8 with the flat upper surface of the strip 10, and due to the formation of the wire 6 the electrode 14 engages therewith over a comparatively large area, whereas the ridge 8 provides only a small area of contact with the base metal, thereby resulting in a concentration of the welding current along the line of contact. This concentration of the welding current will cause fusion of the contact metal and the base metal strip 10 and will prevent the base metal from sticking to the electrode 16 or from burning due to the fact that the relatively large crosssection of the base metal provides a chilling effect at the point of contact with the precious metal and causes the ridge of the contact metal which has a relatively small crosssection to rise to the melting temperature at'approximately the same time that the base metal is raised to its melting temperature, thus permitting an intimate mixture of the molten metals and a strong weld.
After the wire 6 of contact metal has been formed to the shape .shown in Fig. 1, cut to predetermined lengths and welded to the strip 10 of base metal at intervals along the length thereof, as shown in Fig. 2, in the manner described hereinbefore, the composite contact elements thus formed may be out along the lines 18, 20, and 22 to provide separate composite contact elements 23 which may be attached to contact springs 24 of electrical apparatus.
Referring now to Fig. 3, a composite contact element 23 cut from the strip as just described may be positioned at an angle of approximately 45 upon a flat surface of an electrical contact spring 24 with the ridges 12 engaging the upper surface of the spring. A welding electrode 26 may be engaged with the flat upper surface of the strip of base metal 10 and a welding electrode 28 having a polarity opposite to that of the welding electrode 26 may be engaged with the underside of the contact spring to complete a weldng circuit which may be the same as shown 1n Fig. 1 through the electrode 28, contact spring 24, base metal strip 10 to the welding electrode 26. This welding circuit may be maintained until the downwardly extending ridges 12 of the strip 10 have fused with the upper surface of the contact "spring 24 to secure the composite contact element to the spring 24 as shown in Fig. 4. The'provision y of the downwardly extending ridges 12 on the strip 10 of the base metal provides concentration points for the welding current applied to the base metal and the electrical contact spring so that despite the difference in the fusing temperatures of the metal of the strip 12 and of the contact spring, the fusion of these metals upon application of the welding current will occur substantially simultaneously, thereby preventing sticking of the metals to the welding electrodes or burning of the base metal and providing a good welded union between the two parts.
Contact springs formed in accordance with the above outlined method may be combined as shown in Fig. 5 wherein a pair of springs are shown having positioned near the ends thereof and upon opposing surfaces thereof, a pair of cooperating contact elements. The contact elements are positioned diagonally of the springs and the element carried by one springis angularly disposed with respect to the cooperating contact element carried by the other or companion spring. By having this arrangement a cross contact is effected between the adjacent surfaces of the two contact elements in response to movement of one of the springs, and it will be apparent that less precious metal is necessary than would be required in the ordinary type of contact element since a comparatively large area is provided for use as contacting surface and even if the associated springs 24 are not exactly aligned a contact will be made between the contact elements upon operation of the springs.
Although a specific embodiment of the invention has been described hereinbefore, it will be understood that modifications and adaptations of the method may be made without departing from the scope of the invention which is to be limited only by the appended claims.
