- 5 for patent bearing. Serial no. 691,280, filed September 28, 1933, in the names of Francis J. McCluskey and Charles Adin Fox, the predom inant object of the invention being toprovide a trip out electrical switch of the type mentioned 10 with improved means for attaching the fuse link of the structure in its switch-closing position so that excessive strains are not applied to the fuse link when said fuse link is serving to retain the switch inits closed position.
Inathe use of electrical switches of the type referred to, it has been found in the case of smaller fuse links of one to twenty-five ampere sizes, for instance, that tensional strains to which the (use links are subjected in retaining, the switches in the switch closed positions result at times, in breaking of these smaller fuse links. The purpose of this invention therefore is to provide improved 'means for attaching the fuse link to parts of the switch structure so that the tensional strains set up in the fuse link as the resultof thefuse link serving to retain the switch in the closed position are very materially reduced, thus eliminating breakage of the fuse links because of excessive tensional strains imparted thereto.

In-order that the present invention may-be clearly understood, the construction of the switch with which it is associated will be described in more or less detail. This switch includes a tubular fuse housing, or fuse cartridge II, which is removably and pivotally associated with the lower of a pair of relatively vertically spaced terminal members It and 32, the upper terminalmember 22 being adapted to engage'the free end of the fuse cartridge when the latter is disposed in the switch closed position as appears in Fig. l. The terminal members, by preference, are mounted on individual insulators 23 and 24, carried by a suitable supporting strap 25, said strap 55 being adapted for attachment to a cross arm or.
0 Claims. (01. 200-114) other support (not shown). Line connection with the lower terminal is eflected by means of a connector ",andwith the upper terminal 22 by means of a vertically extended arm 3| and connector 32. The connectors 30 and 32 may be of the split-bolt type and are shown asengaging line-sections designated 33.
As shown in Fig. l, the upper end of the cartridge is adapted to be closed or capped solely by means of a head element carried by and forming a part of the fuse link. Such head element comprises an externally convex disk 42 having an axially projecting plug 43 which provides a clo- 'sure for the upper end of the cartridge. The head element 42 when properly seated provides a contact-surface for direct engagement by the-- Due to its convexity, the head element will equally on opposite sides of the fuse head. The spring contact arms bear upon the fuse head, to effect high pressure, low resistance contact with that element, and produce a substantially gastight closure for the cartridge tube. The pressure on the end of the tube tends to move the cartridge axially downwardly, which results in tensioning of the fuse link and also operates to produce high pressure, low resistance contact between the lower switch terminal, member 2| and its companion cartridge terminal member.
The fuse link, designated generally 44, is provided with a fusible section 45 of reduced current carrying capacity, and extends from the plug portion 43 of the contact head through the cartridge tube and out of the mouth at the lower end thereof for connection with a cartridge terminal member. The improved manner of connecting the lower end of the fuse link to the cartridge terminal member constitutes the basis of the present invention and the construction and arrangement of the parts which provide for the accomplishment of such improved manner of connecting the lower end of the fuse link to the cartridge terminal member will be member being rigidly secured to and projecting at a right angle from the cartridge tube. The bracket 48, which is preferably spaced a short distance from the lower'end of the tube, is provided with a recess or pocket 49, open at the bottom of bracket member 48, which forms a housing for a pivot pin 50. The hinge member 41 is formed intermediate of its ends, with a laterally projecting arm portion 5| which extends into the recess or pocket 49 and pivotally engages the pin 50.- Thus the bearing portions of members 41 and 48 are protected from ice and snow which otherwise would tend to hamper operation of the switch. I
As is shown in Fig. 1, one end of the member 41 is adapted to abut the lower end face of the cartridge tube, and at the opposite, bifurcated end of said member 41 downwardly extended, hook-like portions 52 are provided which engage trunnions 53 formed on the lower terminal member 2|. Under inormal operating conditions, opening and closing of the switch is effected by swinging the cartridge about the axis of the trunnions 53, there being no movement of the hinge member 41 relative to the cartridge tube. The latter movement under normal conditions of operation is prevented by the fuse link.
In accordance with the improved arrangement disclosed herein the fuse link extends out of the mouth of the, cartridge tube and passes downwardly about an end portion of the hinge member 41, wherein a more or less U-shaped groove 41' is formed which provides a seat for the portion of the fuse link which embraces said end portion of said hinge member. The end portion of the hinge member 41 is provided also with a groove 41" which serves as a seat for the fuse link when the snubbing block is not employed. After embracing the end portion of the hinge member 41 the fuse link passes upwardly, where it is extended about a snubbing block 48' formed on the bracket element 48, said snubbing block being extended outwardly from said bracket element as shown to the best advantage in Fig. 3, and being provided with a semi-circular groove 421 which provides a seat for the fuse link. From the snubbing block 48 the fuse link passes to a binding post 55 which projects from the side of the hinge member 41, said binding post comprising a wing screw 55' having associated means which prevent the wing screw fromacting in the manner of a capstan or winch to produce undue tension in the fuse link, or possibly rupturing said fuse link as that element is being secured to the hinge member 41 through the instrumentality of the binding post. Thus, as appears in Fig. 4, the wing screw 55, which is pinned to the screw shank, is provided with a sleeve 56 terminating adjacent to the screw head in an annular flange or washer 51. That portion of the screw shank upon which the sleeve 56 is disposed is preferably devoid of screw-threads and is reduced in diameter to sub- I stantially the root diameter of the screw-threads. Hence any substantial longitudinal displacement of the sleeve is prevented and the flange or washer portion 51 is always maintained adjacent to'the screw head, which expedient facilitates the operation of securing a fuse link to the hinge member 41.
When the cartridge is disposed in switch closed position, the fuse link is held under con stant tension by reason of the tendency of the hinge member 41 to turn about the pivot pin 50 resulting from forces set up by the upper resilient terminal. A distinct advantage is obtained' by arranging the hinge member 41 so that its fuse-engaging end is movable in an are substantially tangential to the axis of the fuse link, such. arrangement, when the link becomes ruptured, enabling the fuse section attached to the hinge member to be pulled from the cartridge with a minimum of interference therefrom. It is extremely important to note that the provision of the snubbing block 48 on the bracket element 48 and the snubbing of the fuse link about said snubbing block very substantially reduce the tensional strain to which the fuse link is subjected when said fuse link is maintaining the switch in the switch closed position. As a. matter of fact, actual tests have shown that the tensional strain set up in a fuse link secured in accordance with the snubbing principle is approximately fifty percent less than when the fuse link was secured in other ways. It is obvious, therefore, that the employment of the snubbing principle in securing the fuse link to the hinge member 41 entirely eliminates the a tendency heretofore present for fuse links to be broken by excess ve mechanical strains applied thereto when said fuse links were serving :0 maintain the switches in switch closed posiions.
The operation of the switch, upon occurrence of an overload or short circuit, is believed to be obvious from the foregoing, but for purposes of completeness may be described as'follows: When the fuse link becomes ruptured as by reason of abnormal current passing therethrough, the hinge member 41, freed at its outer or fuse link engaging end and acting under the forces imparted thereto, turns rapidly about the two axes defined by the trunnions 53 and the pivot pin 50. Movement of the hinge member about the trunnions is accompanied by an endwise lowering of the cartridge tube, which, when clear of the upper terminal member, swings under gravity action to full open position. It is obvious that the hinge member considered as a lever has a high velocity ratio and that its outer or link-engaging end moves very rapidly. Accordingly the ruptured ends of the fuse link become quickly separated, resulting in practically instantaneous extinguishment of the arc created therebetween.
As certain changes may be made in the device herein illustrated and described without departing from the spirit and full intended scope of the invention, it is to be understood that the present description shall be construed in an exemplary and not in a limiting sense, except as the invention is defined by the appended claims.
