Definitions

  • My invention relates to circuit interrupters and particularly to high voltage circuit breakers of the type which utilizes an expulsive gas blast for extinguishing the arc formed incident to the interruption ofthe controlled circuit.
  • Expulsion circuit breakers usually comprise a tubular arc passage, a means, such as a fuse or a movable plunger, for drawing an arc within the tubular arc passage, and a means for producing an expulsive gas blast which flows longitudinally through the arc to eilect its extinguishment.
  • the eiliciencyl and the reliability of operation of these devices dependA to a great extent upon the amount and the chemical characteristics of the gas which is caused to expulsively ow through the arc during the circuit interrupting operation, and the principal problem of the art has always been the securing of an adequate volume of gas having a satisfactory chemical composition.
  • the most satisfactory structure so far evolved secures the desired longitudinal blast of arc extinguishing gas by lining the arc passage. with an insulating material which is capable of evolving large quantities of arc extinguishing gas and whichvdoes not lose its insulating properties when placed in proximity to an electric arc.
  • the gas is inorganic in nature, readily condensable, and non-inammable. All offthese requirements are met by a lining composed of compressed boric acid, but, even this arrangement has not proved entirely free from defects.
  • the prior art structures have utilized two arc passages, one of large cross-sectional area wherein arcs of heavy current magnitudes are interrupted, and one of small cross-sectional area wherein arcs of a lower current magnitude are extinguished.
  • This arrangement requires selective means for assuring that the arc shall be drawn in the proper passage, and is not entirely satisfactory from an economic viewpoint.
  • the principal object of my invention is, therefore, to provide an improved expulsion circuit interrupter, of the type discussed above, that shall utilize but a single arc passage and that shall be provided with means for assuring the satisfactory interruption of both small and large current arcs inthat passage.
  • I provide a suitable means for defining an arc passage, a plunger for drawing an arc within that passage, and a means of insulating material, which preferably forms a part of the plunger, movable into the arc passage only when arcs of small current magnitude have been or are being drawn thereon.
  • This means of insulating material restricts the cross-sectional area of the arc passage in such manner that even the low magnitude arcs are brought into intimate contact with the'lining of the passage and as a result a suilicient volume of arc extinguishing gas will be evolved to assure a rapid and complete extinguishment of the arc. 4
  • a further object of my invention is to provide an expulsion type circuit interrupter with means for introducing a body of insulating material, itself capable of evolving an arc extinguishing gas ⁇ when placed in proximity to an electric arc, into the varc passage thereof during the circuit opening operation.
  • FIG. 1 is a sectional view, partially in elevation, of an expulsion type circuit interrupter embodying the principal featuresof my invention
  • Fig. 2 is a sectional view taken on the line II--II of Fig. l;
  • Fig.l 3 is a fragmentary detailed view, partially in section, showing a mndiiied form of plunger for use with the circuit interrupter shown in Figs. 1 and 2.
  • the expulsion circuit interrupter shown in the drawing comprises, generally, a tube I of insulating material, which possesses suicient strength to withstand the pressures ordinarily developed within these devices, a metallic cap or ierrule 3 for enclosing the upper end of the main insulating tube I, and a second ferrule 5, having a centrally disposed opening 1 therein, for engaging the lower end of the insulating tube.
  • Both the ⁇ upper and lower ferrules are adapted to be retained in position by means of suitable screw threads Sand II formed in the cooperating portions of those members and the tube I.
  • , preferably o f compressed boric acid or other gas generating ma.- terial, having ay centrally disposed passage 23 therein is positioned within the lower portion of the main tube'v I.
  • the passage 23 constitutes the arc passage, the arc being established therein by the movable plunger assemblage 25.
  • the boric acid .member 2ll is retained in position within the main tube I by the annular plateJIS, which engages the lower portion of the conducting tube I3, andthe lower ferrule 5.
  • the open- -ing 21 in the annular plate I9 is of substantially the same dimensions as the arc passage 23, and that passage terminates in a funnel-shaped opening 29, the-largest diameter of which is substantially the same as thel opening 1 in the lower ⁇ ferrule 5.
  • the plunger assemblage 25 comprises generally a rod or plunger having a conductingportion 3
  • comprises a circular rod of conducting material, the upper end 35 of which is threaded for engagement with a suitable threaded opening in the movable piston member 31.
  • the piston member 31 is circular in outline and is of somewhat smaller diameter than the tubular conducting member I3 wherein it is adapted to move.
  • the lower end of the conducting portion 3I of the plunger is provided with a section 39 of reduced cross sectional area.
  • This reduced section is threaded for engaging the upper end of the insulating portion 33 and serves to provide an electro-responsive mechanical connection between the two portions of the plunger.
  • the piston member 31 and with it the two mechanically connected portions of the plunger proper are biased in the direction of the upper ferrule, at all times, by a coil spring 4I. Movement in this direction is prevented by a fusible element 43, one end of which fits within a suitable recess 45 in the upper or cap portion 41 of the insulating portion of the plunger, and the other end of which ts Within a like recess' 49 in the lower ferrule 5.
  • the insulating portion 33 of the plunger may be formed of a number of different materials. If the interrupter is to be used out of doors, it may be desirable to form that member of a ceramic material or other which will not absorb moisture. If the device is to be used indoors, the rod may be formed of fiber or other materials more or less hydroscopic. In either case the material should be capable of retaining its insulating properties when placed in proximity to an electric arc.
  • the insulating portion 33 of material which is capable of evolving an arc extinguishingl gas when brought into proximity with an electric arc this arrangement being particularly suitable for use on circuits wherein it is desirable to have the minimum possible arcing time.
  • boric acid .or other structurally weak materials are used for this purpose, it is desirable to reen'- force the plunger, and a structure of this type is shown in Fig. 1.' ⁇
  • the insulating portion 33 of the device shown in that figure is formed of a material which is structurally weak, and a tubular reenforcing member 5I is molded or formed integral therewith. This reenforcing member 5I is provided with a threaded portion 53 at its upper, end, for engaging a cooperating threaded recess in metallic top or cap portion 41 of the insulating member- 33.
  • This cap portion 41 is also provided with a second threaded. recess 55 for engaging the threaded end of the reduced section 39 of the conducting portion 3
  • the modified form of the insulating portion of the plunger illustrated in Fig. 31s adapted for use with insulating materials having a suillcient mechanical'strength to obviate the necessity for reenforcing the insulating portion 33 of the plunger or for providing a cap means.
  • the upper end of the insulating rod/51 may be:e provided with a recess 59 for engaging one end of the fusible element I3 and a threaded opening 6I for engaging the cooperating threaded end of the conducting rod
  • the electrical circuit through the fuse is comparatively direct.
  • the current flows successively through the tubular conducting member I3, the annular plate I9, the flexible shunt 63 intermediate the annular plate I9 and the pistonmember 31, thence through the piston member 31 and the conductingportion 3
  • the fusible element 43 melts, thereby releasing the plunger and allowingl that member to be moved to the open-circuit position under the biasing action of the spring 4I.
  • the conducting portion 3I of the plunger by virtue of this movement draws the arc into the arc passage 23 and at the' same time causes the entry of the insulating portion 33 of the plunger into that passage.
  • the insulating portion v33 restricts the cross-sectional area of the arc passage and brings the arc into intimate contact with the surface of 'the boric acid lining 2
