Definitions
- control bridge of a piece of sheet metal which is secured and preferably riveted to the free end of the control rod and is provided at the side facing the arm of the contact bridge which extends substantially parallel to the control rod with an integral tongue-like coupling projection when the pushbutton is being depressed, engages into an aperture in the mentioned arm of the contact ridge.
- the control bridge is therefore made of a piece of sheet metal at practically no waste of material which facilitates its production considerably.
- the contact bridge may likewise consist of sheet metal, namely, of copper, with fiat arms.
- the contact bridge which is made of relative thin sheet copper in the form of an angular lever, its bend is provided with one or more reinforcing beads.
- the aperture in the arm of the contact bridge which extends substantially parallel to the control rod may form an isosceles triangle, the base of which extends transverse to this arm and at the side or" the triangle facing the free end of the arm.
- An aperture of this shape has the advantage that it will not weaken the arm too much.
- the base of the triangle forms an edge on which the tonguelike projection of the control bridge engages when the pushbutton is depressed to its on position so that the contact bridge is likewise moved to its on position.
- the arm of the contact bridge which extends substantially parallel to the control rod is made of a greater length than the other arm.
- This longer arm forms a contact member which cooperates with another fixed contact.
- the foot of the are which is then formed moves toward the free end of the longer arm of the contact bridge where the arc is drawn apart and extinguished.
- This longer arm works like a horn-shaped lightning arrester. It decreases in width toward its free end.
- the contact bridge may be made in a very simple manher by stamping, and it is stamped in the direction in which, when the circuit breaker is assembled, the push button is located so that the outer edge of the shorter horizontal arm facing the pushbuton will be sharp.
- the contact bridge When-as already indicated the pushbutton is being depressed to move it to its on position, the contact bridge will be taken along by the coupling projection on the control bridge until the end of the shorter arm of the contact bridge snaps behind the holding projection on the bimetallic strip. If the bimetallic strip bends due to being heated by an overcurrent, its holding projection will release the contact bridge so that under the action of the release spring the contact bridge together with the control rod and the pushbutton will be moved to the oti position.
- the invention further provides that this coil spring is made of a frustoconical shape and that its wider end engages with the contact bridge.
- the manufacture of the overload circuit breaker according to the invention may be further simplified by providing the bimetallic strip near its free end with an aperture into which the necked-down portion of a small copper plate is inserted which serves as the holding projection of the bimetallic strip.
- the shoulders which are formed on the copper plate by this necked-down portion then engage upon the portions of the bimetallic strip at both sides of the aperture, and the necked-down portion is then riveted at the other side of the bimetallic strip.
- This copper plate may also be produced by stamping, whereas the holding projections on the bimetallic strips of the known kinds of overload circuit breakers had to be specially molded.
- the copper plate may extend in the aperture at right angles to the longitudinal direction of the bimetallic strip so that a wide contact surface results which forms the actual holding projection and overlaps the free end of the shorter arm of the contact bridge when the bimetallic srtip is in its straight holding position.
- the manufacture of the circuit breaker may be further simplified by providing-the necked-down part of the copper plate near the end which is to be riveted with a bore into which one end of the wire of the heating coil is inserted so that, when the copper plate is riveted to the bimetallic strip, the wire will also be securely clamped thereto.
- the riveting of the copper plate therefore also insures a reliable electric connection of this wire and there is thus no need for the usual rather complicated and expensive soldering of this end of the wire of the heating coil.
- the latter is provided at the side of the copper plate facing the free end of the bimetallic strip with a tongue which is stamped out of the $9 plane of the strip in the direction toward the contact bridge when the aperture is punched into the strip.
- the mentioned tongue on the bimetallic strip is bent so as to have an inclined back forming a cam surface and so that the outer edge of the end of the tongue is in line with the corresponding edge of the copper plate. Therefore, when the pushbutton is being depressed, the end of the shorter arm of the contact bridge will slide easily along this inclined cam surface or" the tongue and over the edge of the copper plate until it snaps behind the latter.
- This cam surface may be extended at the same or a similar inclination by also bending the upper end of the bimetallic strip directly adjacent to the beginning of the tongue.
- a bushing is inserted into the two-part housing.
- the cylindrical bore of this bushing serves for guiding the pushbutton, while the part of the bushing which projects from the housing is provided with an external screw thread for mounting the circuit breaker.
- the entire circuit breaker may be ecured, for example, to a flat projection or in an aperture in a wall.
- it may be provided with a squareshaped part which engages into corresponding recesses in the two housing parts.
- This square-shaped part of the bushing is preferably provided on its inner end made rather thin. It operates like a flange and also prevents the bushing from shifting in the axial direction.
- the bushing is made of metal, preferably of aluminum.
- one or both parts of the housing of the circuit breaker may be provided with an aperture at an area adjacent to the bimetallic strip so that the heat which the heating coil develops within the housing may be dissipated to the outside and the bimetallic strip may cool more quickly after releasing the contact bridge.
- These apertures in one or both parts of the housing may also serve for conducting the temperature surrounding the circuit breaker to the bimetallic strip so that the latter will then act as a thermostat. If the circuit breaker is to be used solely for this purpose, the heating coil on the bimetallic strip may be omitted.
- its houing may be made of such small dimensions that the width of the housing vertically to the bimetallic strip may be made smaller than twice the thickness or" the housing.

- the inclined surface 41 of tongue 39 serves as a cam'for guiding the contact bridge l7 when the pushbutton 6 is being depressed to close the circuit.
- This inclined surface 41 is extended in length by an inclined surface 4-1 which is formed by bending the upper end of the bimetallic strip backwards at the point Where the tongue 39 projects from the vertical plane of the strip.
- the other end of the wire of the heating coil 3E5 is riveted at 42 to a terminal strip 43.
- housing It, 2' may be provided with apertures d4- and 44 through which the heat which is developed in the housing may be dissipated to the outside, while the outside temperature may also pass through these apertures to the bimetallic strip 27 and heat the same, so that the circuit breaker will also respond to the temperature surrounding it.
