Philadelphia, vania -Pa., a corporation of Pennsyl- Application January 11, 1947, Serial No. 721,648
Our present invention relates to high voltage highcapacity circuit breakers, and more particularly to circuit breakers having an interrupting rating of 50,000 kva. and better in any voltage range between 2300 and 5000 volts'and at current ratings of 600'and 1200 amperes;
Essentially our invention is directed to the production' of high voltagehigh capacity air break switchgear in such a manner as to provide the increased interrupting capacity required by means of the simplest elements which aremanuiactured and assembled by mass production methods in the most economical way. g
Accordingly an object of our invention is the construction of a high capacity high voltage circuit breaker, capable of interrupting arcs of 50,000 kva. capacity or even better, and economical in design and construction, capable of unit sub-assembly manufacturing operation; and so reduced in cost that its price may compare favorably and at times even be lower than-that of many lower capacity lower voltage circuit breakers on the market today.
The'foregoing and many other objects of our invention will become apparent from the following description 01 the drawings in which: I
Figure 1 is a side view in perspective, partly 4 Qlaims. (o1. 200-447) tion' herein shown.
which require no specific description; Also, the control switch contacts indicated generally at 10 of Figures 1 and 2 and the grounding contacts 'ihlzof Figures 1 and 2 may be standard units.
.The essential elements as above pointed out with respect to these units is the unit assembly arrangement which is possible with theconstruc- 'The rear end of the operating mechanism as 'sembly 46 is supported on the cross bar- 14' which is held by the bolts l5, across the top of'the lower panel 12. Cross bar M also provides means for supporting additional assemblies. The specific novel assemblies or sub-assemblies shown in Figures 1 and 2 and forming an essential part of the novel circuit breaker here shown are the operating mechanisinshown in Figure 1'.
The various assemblies above mentioned will be described in order, going from the bottom toward the top of the circuit breaker without specific emphasis on any one of the assemblies over the other.
It must be. emphasized, however, that an im-- portant feature of the circuit breaker'is' in the novel are chute construction in conjunction with the novel'blow out construction.
broken away showing our novel circuit breaker assembled and mounted on a truck.
Figure 2 is aside, back view, in perspective,
showing our novel circuit breaker mounted ona truck with the interphase barrier in position.
Referring now to Figures 1 and 2, our novel circuit breaker is shown preferably mounted on a movable truck. The movable truck comprises a back main supporting structure which includes the vertical support members l0 and H connected together and interbraced at the lower end by the Masonite panel ['2 and. at the central and'upper portion'by' the horizontal c'rossbars [3; l4 and I5 which are connected asshown, in any appropriate manner, as for instance by bolts and nuts to the vertical members It and H. The lower ends of the vertical members 'l0 and II are provided with bearings l1 and W for the shaft l9 which carries the rear wheels and 2| of the truck. The vertical members I!) and H together with the cross bracing elements above described and the wheel 20 and 2! constitute a single unitary member of assembly.
Certain of the assemblies are standard and require no specific discussion here. Thusgthe control panel assembly 41 and the tripunit as: semb1y'48 may be substantially s'tandardunits The operating mechanism'utilizes as closely as possible the simple principle of the lever operated switch with only enough addition theretoto provide automatic response to over-current con-1 ditions in order to trip the circuit breaker and also to provide a solenoid closing means. The simplification of this operating mechanism makes possible the production of;the inexpensive circuit breaker herein described; I
Thus, while the arc chute assembly and the blow-out assembly make possible the high capacity operation and high speed operation which are essential to the operation of the circuit breaker as a whole, the simplicity of the other assemblies makes possible the economical and efficient construction. l
The individual unit assemblies facilitate storage of parts preparatory to final assembly and thus make it possible to fill orders quickly;
Thus the first sub-assembly which consists of the back panel and the back wheels 20 and 2| is essentially a simple fiat member which may readily behstored and does not take up any substantial amount of space. r
Heretofore, the difficulty encountered in premanufacture of sub-assemblies in anticipation of future orders resided in the fact that the gear usually was as big as the circuit breaker itself, so that the manufacture and especially the storage of the main frame presented the same problem as the storing of an entire circuit breaker. No real economy was effected by pre-manufactureof the main frame since. the entire circuit breaker. could be: stored just as readily.
By means of our novel device, the back panel and the rear wheels of the truck which constitute a single fiat structure may-readily be stored awaiting specific ordersfor. assembly. of specific circuit breakers. I
The truck structure is completed bylmeans of a lower or bottom platform -2 3,-.-which carries-a front wheel 24 in the front swivel 25. The bottom platform 23 is secured. at .the rear .end .to the lower end of the verticalmembers' 'lfl and H above the bearings I1 and I8 fortherear wheel. The bottom platform 23 in connection with the back panel form-the verticalsupporting members vi 0. and l l .andftheir interbracing structure and taken together withthe rear wheels 20 and..'2l:..and the front. swivel wheel 24 comprises the. .truck. or. mounting, for. .the. .circuit breaker. ThusQth'e. bottom platform 23-. andlthe front swivel wheel 24 constitutes asingle sub-assembly which may readily be stored without requiring. any addi tional space. and whichmay readilybe. attached by two. screws to thefiower. .endflof. the vertical memberslfland I.l.
.This type-of unitarysub-assembly construction which. may readilylbe. interconnected .with other elements. inorder to make .a complete :truck, .facilitates. modification and, of yariationof-s'ubassemblies order .to 1 meet the specific orders.
Thus in the event various control.v elements must be multiplied to a substantial extent in the final circuit breaker. thus requiring perhaps; a custom built lower platform 23, this. lower .pl'atform23 may be built toithe uniquespecific'ations of the customer andimayfthen be combined with the standard back panel construction,.wliich...is kept in stock. However, the-entire .truckconstruction including thelfirst ,and .second sub.-as-. semblies above described. are. built in fi1l1ahticipation of all requirementsto which .theipar'tic'ular circuit breaker. may be. put, so. that particular custommade back or bottom portions .of a truck willwbe required only, in. exceptional cases. The upper: terminal assembly 30,. and the .lower termi: m1. assembly 3|. for .eachcoflth lthree .pol'esiis formedfrom, a. single barfof copper of rectangulars cross -l.section (appropriately I insulated by phenolic insulation.

..Each.o'f.the=verticalreinforcements 10, H :and 32 is a rectangular steel member, so that while the recesses '33, 33...are cut. out in'the vertical reinforcement' they'.are incised onlyin" the: .por-' tion of the rectangular .steelmember 'whiohis normal totheback panel';56."Th l gs of "each ofthe .re'ctang'ular members (l0; Ii and 32. carry the bolts36, 36 which engage the flange"members 35 {orthe terminal element. f Thus it will be seen that two bolts or screws 36 are all that are necessary to secure each of the terminal elements in place, these bolts being locked in secured position by the nut 31 as shown in Figure 2.
