Description

{MM I INVENTOR. BY M MW M Sept. 19, 1967 F. J. KOZACKA SUPERCOMPACT POLYPHASE FUSE Filed Feb. 27, 1967 United States Patent 3,342,962 SUPERCOMPACT POLYPHASE FUSE Frederick J. Kozacka, South Hampton, N.H., assignor to The Chase-Shawmut Company, Newburyport, Mass. Filed Feb. 27, 1967, Ser. No. 618,696 7 Claims. (Cl. 200120) ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE A polyphase fuse is disclosed which is more compact than prior art fuses of this description, and which includes a housing formed by a monolithic block of an inorganic insulating material. This makes it possible to operate the fuse at relatively high temperatures which, in turn, makes it possible to reduce the size of the fuse structure. Other important features of the fuse reside in its simplicity of design, and the reduction of the smallest distance between its current-carrying parts pertaining to different phases and its parts having a contact potential pertaining to different phases to the spacing between knife blade contacts.
Field of invention Polyphase fuses are structures including a plurality of single-phase fuses integrated into a structural unit. Such a unit canbe designed to be more compact than several separate single-phase fuses, and it can be replaced more quickly than several single-phase fuses. Thus the application of polyphase fuses greatly reduces downtime in case of replacement of fuses.
Summary of invention All the current-carrying parts of the polyphase fuse are arranged in a plurality of passageways defined by a monolithic block of inorganic insulating material. There is no current-carrying part associated with each of the passageways which extends beyond the particular passageway. As a result, there is no current-carrying part, or any part having a contact potential, within the space situated on the outside of the monolithic fuse housing between the blade contacts of the polyphase fuse.
Brief description of drawings Referring now to the drawings FIG. 1 is in part a front elevation and in part a vertical section of a polyphase fuse embodying the present invention and shows that fuse associated with fuse clips adapting the fuse to be used as a disconnect switch;
FIG. 2 is partially a side elevation and partially a longitudinal section of the structure of FIG. 1;
FIG. 3 is a horizontal section taken along 3-3 of FIG. 1; and
FIG. 4 is an isometric view of a detail of the structure of FIGS. 1 to 3.
Description of preferred embodiment Referring now to the drawings, numeral 1 has been applied to indicate a block of an inorganic material as, for instance, densified asbestos cement. Block 1 has a plurality of parallel passageways 2 which are substantially cylindrical and circular in cross-section. The geometrical axes X of passageways 2 are arranged substantially in the common plane YY (see FIG. 2). Each of the plurality of passageways 2 has a pair of openings 2a at the ends thereof. A plurality of pairs of blade contacts 4 arranged at right angles to plane YY projects with the axially inner ends thereof into one of said plurality of passageways 2. Each pair of knife blade contacts 4 is spaced equidistantly from the front surface and from the rear surface of block 1. The structure further includes a plurality of fuse link means 5 each arranged in one of passageways 2 and each conductively interconnecting one of said plurality of pairs of blade contacts 4. In the embodiment of the invention shown each fuse link means includes a pair of multiperforated silver ribbons sandwiching with the axially outer ends thereof the axially inner ends of one pair of blade contacts 4.
Reference numeral 6 has been applied to indicate a plurality of bodies of arc-quenching filler, each in one of passageways 2. Each body 6 of arc-quenching filler consists preferably of pure quartz sand, and each body 6 of arc-quenching filler has a pair of end surfaces 6:: in spaced relation from said pair of openings 2a of each of said plurality of passageways 2.
The structure further includes a plurality of pairs of end plugs 7 of insulating material. Each pair of end plugs 7 projects into one of said plurality of passageways 2 and each positions one of said plurality of pairs of blade contacts 4 from the internal wall of one of said plurality of passageways 2. In other words, end plugs 7 form insulating bushings for the passage of blade contacts 4. Plugs 7 are preferably made of a synthetic resin. To be more specific, plugs 7 are preferably made of a synthetic casting resin pertaining to the family of epoxy resins.
Reference numeral 8 has been applied to indicate a plurality of washers of electric insulating material. Each washer 8 is provide-d with a substantially rectangular cut-out (not shown) to allow the passage of blade contacts 4. Each washer 8 is interposed between one of the bodies 6 of arc-quenching filler and one of end plugs 7.
In the embodiment of the invention shown in the drawings the internal wall of each of passageways 6 defines a pair of shoulders 2b adjacent openings 2a, and washers 8 rest with the outer periphery thereof against the aforementioned shoulders 2b. Washers 8 form barriers between the bodies of quartz sand 6 and the plugs 7.
Block 1 is preferably made of densified asbestos cement. If this material is used in preference to steatite or porcelain, certain precautions must be taken fully set forth in US. patent to E. Salzer et al., 3,281,556, Oct. 25, 1966, for Electric Cartridge Fuses. Reference may be had to this patent in regard to the use of densified asbestos cement for forming block 1.
Reference numeral 9 has been applied to indicate fuse clips for receiving the axially outer ends of blade contacts 4. Transverse pins 10 project through the lower fuse clips 9 as seen in FIG. 1, making it possible to pivot the entire polyphase fuse structure as a unit about pins 10. As shown in FIG. 4, the lower ends of the lower blade contacts 4 are provided with oblong slots or incisions 4a intended to be engaged by pins 10.
In FIG. 1 the smallest distance between fuse clips 9 pertaining to different phases has been designated by the reference character oi and the smallest distance between current-carrying parts on the outside of block 1 pertaining to different phases has been designated by reference character d It will be apparent from FIG. 1 that This is but one form of expressing the great compactness which may be achieved by means of polyphase fuses constructed in accordance with the present invention. To be more specific, the total width W of block 1 can be as small as the distance d between fuse clips of contiguous phases permits.
Block 1 is substantially prismatic and has a width W substantially exceeding the depth D thereof. The axially outer end surfaces of end plugs 7 are flush with the upper and lower surfaces of the block 1, thus giving a neat and smooth appearance to the composite polyphase fuse structure.
In the foregoing I have described my invention solely in connection with an illustrative specific embodiment thereof. Since many variations and modifications may be made and beobvious to those skilled in the art, I prefer to be bound not by the specific disclosure herein contained, but only by the appended claims.
