Description
Oct. 6, 1964 F. J. SCHULTZ FUSE CONSTRUCTION Filed June 16, 1961 INVENTOR. Fred J Schultz United States Patent 3,152,236 FUSE CONSTRUCTION Fred J. Schultz, Miiwaukee, Wis, assignor to McGraw- Edison Company, Milwaukee, Wis, a corporation of Delaware Filed June 16, 1961, Ser. No. 117,744 3 Claims. (Cl. 200-427) This invention relates to circuit interrupting devices and more particularly to an improved fuse construction for a fuse cutout of the expulsion type.
Conventional fuse cutouts utilize a fuse construction which includes a fuse link, a gas evolving fusetube and a fuse link tube which is positioned within the fusetube in surrounding relation to a portion of the fuse link. Due to the large ranges of currents'(l004000 amperes) which must be interrupted by present day fuse cutouts a conflict in the design of the fusetube arises. While it is desired to provide a short are path in a relatively large bore tube for interruption of high currents, it is on the other hand desirable to provide a long are path in a restricted tube bore for interruption of lower currents. This situation is somewhat resolved thru the use of the fuse link tube, in that low fault currents are interrupted within the confines of the fuse link tube while higher fault currents cause the tube to rupture and are thereby interrupted in the larger fuse tube bore. The success of this scheme is however relatively limited and does not provide for enlarging the bore of the larger tube in order to extend the interrupting rating of the device upward. This then is one of the major disadvantages inherent in contemporary devices.
It is therefore an object of this invention to provide an improved fuse construction for an expulsion type fuse cutout.
Another object of this invention is to provide a fuse construction having improved current interrupting capabilities.
Another object of this invention is to provide a fuse construction wherein the bore of the main fuse tub is partially relieved of low current interruption.
A further object of this invention is to provide a fuse construction in which the length of high current arcs is materially reduced.
A further object of the invention is to provide a fuse construction which is capable of successfully interrupting a wide range of currents.
A still further object of this invention is to provide an improved fuse construction for an expulsion type fuse cutout which is economical to produce, dependable in operation and which at the same time achieves all the foregoing advantages.
Other objects and advantages of my invention will be apparent from the following description of the preferred embodiment of the invention taken in connection with the accompanying drawings in which:
FIGURE 1 is a view in elevation of a fuse cutout incorporating the invention disclosed herein; and
FIGURE 2 is a cutaway portion of a view in elevation of the invention.
Referring to FIG. 1, indicates one form of fuse cutout with which the invention may be utilized. The cutout 10 comprises an insulator 11 which may be made of porcelain or similar insulating material and which is aflixed to a supporting member by means of a hanger bracket assembly, neither of which are shown for the sake of convenience. An upper stationary contact assembly 12 and a lower stationary contact and supporting structure 13 are fixedly attached to insulator means 11 at spaced apart locations thereon. A fuseholder assembly comprising a fuseholder 14, fuse link 15 positioned therewithin and extending out one end of the holder 14, and
Patented Oct. 6, 1964 "ice upper and lower fuseholder contacts 16 and 17 respectively, is pivotally mounted in support 13 and adapted to releasably engage the upper stationary contact assembly 12 thru a releasable latch construction which is not shown for the sake of convenience and to shorten the disclosure. The end of the fuse link extending out of the fuseholder 14 is aflixed as is customary to the lower contact assembly.
As is conventional, upon a fault within the rating of the cutout, the fuse link will rupture and the fuseholder and its associated contacts will pivot about the support 13 thereby providing visual indication of the condition of the line and cutout as well as insuring a safety air gap. To put the cutout back into service a new fuse is inserted in the fuseholder and the fuseholder is rotated back into circuit bridging position Where it is maintained by the latch.
Referring now to FIGURE 2, 14 again designates the fuseholder generally. The fuseholder comprises a gas evolving fuse tube 18 which may be made of melamine impregnated fiber glass or similar materials which are well known in the art.
Afiixed to one end of the fuse tube 18 as by screw threads 19 is an apertured ferrule member 20 which may have an inwardly extending upper shoulder portion 21. A fuse assembly comprising a fuse link leader 22, fusible element 23 and button head 24- is positioned within the fuse tube 18 so that the underside of the button head 24 contacts the inwardly extending shoulder portion 21 of ferrule member 20. A cap member 25 which may or may not be pressure responsive is affixed to the ferrule member 20 by means of screw threads 26. A gas evolv ing fuse link tube 27 which may be made of fiber or similar material is positioned around the fusible element 23 and a portion of the fuse link leader 22 and contacts the underside of the button head 24.
Up to this point a conventional fuseholder assembly has been described and as a result the assembly may take a variety of forms. Therefore the particular fuse tubes, ferrule members, fuse links and fuse link tubes utilized should not be construed as a limitation on the invention described herein.
Positioned within the fusetube 18 and surrounding the fuse link tube 27 is a tubular conducting member 28 which may be of metal such as brass or steel or which may take the form of a cylindrical metallic screen. The bore of the conducting member 28 may vary between the outside diameter of the fuse link tube and the inside diameter of the fuse tube. However, to accomplish the desired results the bore of the conducting tube should be such that it fits snugly around the outside of the fuse link tube 27. By the same token, for best results, the length of the conducting member should be somewhat less than the length of the fuse link tube 27 The function of the tubular conducting member will now be explained. On very low fault currents the fusible element 23 is ruptured and an arc is drawn between the ruptured ends of the element within the confines of the fuse link tube. Since the bore of the fuse link tube 27 is exposed to this are gases are evolved from the tube. The gases so evolved, acting in the small space within the fuse link tube, serve to extinguish the are. The tubular conducting member 28 serves to reinforce the fuse link tube 27 in the area surrounding the fusible element 23 and thusly increases the current level at which the fuse link tube will rupture. Therefore higher currents may be interrupted prior to rupture of the fuse link tube than have heretofore been possible. Consequently the values of minimum current to be interrupted in the main bore of the fuse tube are increased. As a result the diameter of the main fuse tube bore may be materially increased so as to more efiiciently interrupt the higher values of current without at the same time diminishing thelow current clearing ability of the device.
On higher currents the fuse link tube 27 will rupture in that area below the tubular conducting member. Subsequent to rupture, as a result of the heat of the are, gases will be evolved from the fuse tube to extinguish the are. To limit the internal pressures due to the high current are reacting with the gas evolving material of the main fuse tube, the lower terminus of the tubular conducting member serves as a terminus for the are thus decreasing the overall length of the are.
It can therefore be seen that the incorporation of the tubular conducting member serves to aid in providing the most optimum conditions for both high and low current interruption. Thru the use of the tubular conducting member on low current operation a relatively long are is drawn in a relatively confined space; the are being extinguished by gases evolved from the fuse link tube. On higher current operation the current are is exposed to the larger bored fuse tube and the arc itself is shortened as a result of current passage thru the conducting member.
Basically tr en my invention serves to increase the overall current interruption of a conventional fuse cutout thru a simple inexpensive expedient which has none of the drawbacks associated with similar attempts at upgrading the ratings of cutouts.
While one particular embodiment of the invention has been shown and described, it will be obvious to those skilled in the art that various changes and modifications can be made therefrom without departing from the invention and, therefore it is intended for the appended claims to cover all such changes and modifications as fall within the true spirit and scope of the invention.
