BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION Field of the Invention The invention relates to an electricalswitch apparatus.
SUMMARY OF THE'INVENTION The purpose .of thepresent invention is to make. a switch apparatus, particularlya switch'contactor, which being simple hydraulic work chamber, whose movable transmission member is fixed by an. intermediate memberto. a movably. guided carrier for the contacts or the countercontactsand upon whose actuation the movement of the carrierv corresponding to the relative movement between contacts and countercontacts is effected with the help of thepressure medium through the intermediate member.
The pneumatic or hydraulic work chambercan be a singleaction .or double-action cylinder, and a workpiston can, for example, be movably guided to and fro in the work cylinder, or a diaphragm, or roll diaphragm can be used as a transmission member.
The arrangement accordingto the invention,,which.is best suited for switchingand controllingmotors, has the advantage that item be used even in areas and situationswhere there is risk of explosion, as instead of electrical-or magnetic actuation, thedevice isoperated pneumatically or hydraulically, The lifeduration of thenew apparatusis considerably. larger than in known comparable arrangements, .as in the latter the.
actuating-magnetis destroyed, damaged or worm out after a.
number of switch-operations, and the, airgapbecomes correspondingly narrower. In this waythelife duration can be increased-five to. lO-times, and the-device is correspondingly. more reliable. Further, the bounce of:the contactsinthenew device is considerably reduced. Finally, there isthe further-advantage that, contrary to -known devices,,a higheractuating force can be employed; this force isconstant, leading'in the final analysis to a reduction in switching delay. When the subject matter is designed as a so-called contactor with double interruptor, the-life durationis increased as aresult of the uniform distribution of oxidation-on the pairs of contacts.
BRIEFDESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS In FIG. 1 of the drawings contacts 1, 2 are providedon'carrier 3, designed. as a longitudinal rod-shaped member-which, in the. embodiment shown in FIG. 1 of the drawings, has the form of a so-called contactorwith double interrupter, and car? ries pairs of opposed contacts .1 and 2. Naturally, several pairsv of such contacts can be provided. With each pair. of contacts 1 and 2 there is in the present case associated a pair of counter contacts'4and 5 which are combined in pairs, which are stationarily arranged in-the casing. On theside of carrier 3 facing the actuatingdevice, a supportplate or. rod .6:,-is,provided, on t whichengage return springs 7,' 8,;such as compressionsprings, associated with thecarrier, the other ends of said-springs being. supported ona part9 of the. casing,-

In the embodimentshownin llfi: l;o f.the;dr,a r/rings,springsv 7 and .S-aredesigned ascompressionsprings; likewise, a spring.

When the springs are designed astension springs, the contacts. 1 and 2tbeing arranged on the otherside ofthecountercontacts 3;and, 4,- relative to the view in the drawing, provision can be. made for the. springs to separate the contacts and countercontacts, and ,for the-pressure medium to bringthemtogether.
By.interchanging the air feed-and evacuation pipes, finally,
other variantscan beformed. All these variantsare intended for special examplesof use. 7
In FIG. 2 of'the drawings a single-action pneumatic cylinder 20 is usedwithin which the-piston,2l.car rying a sealing ring ring 23' isv movable to,.and fro according-toarrows22': The
pressure air is. introducedwithin the cylinder throughthe channels 24, 25-.1Whenair is entering through ,these channels,
ball26 rests on its seat 28, but-there is not-produceda sealing effect, since the ball 2.6.does notperfectly adhere to its seat. represented-by thebush or-sleeve-28. Between-balllfizandits seat 28- there remains-a radially directedfreespace or interspace 29;through .which-pressure air coming-fromchannel 25 passes through ,channel .2.7 into .the chamber 30of. the singleactionspneumatic. cylinder in order to -move thepiston v.and' its piston rod;3l in downward directionaccording to-ar row 22a.
Thereby, the carrierr32which is connected with the head 33- of the piston rod 31 by a projection 34 engaged into the groove 35 of the head 33 is moved also downwards according to arrow 22a and thus the contacts and countercontacts are applied one against the other. The purpose of the ball 26 which is subjected to the action of the spring 36 is to reduce the cross section of the passage of pressure air from channel 25 to channel 27 as much as possible, in the manner ofa throttle. By this means the contact carrier is prevented from moving with too great a speed downwards in direction of the closed position of the contacts, whereby undesired vibrations of the contacts could arise. When the contacts are to be opened, then pressure is relieved, for example, by means ofa valve not shown, connected with channel 24 and this latter channel is connected with the atmosphere. Then, pressure spring moves piston rod 31 and piston 21 in upward direction according to arrow 22b and the air contained in chamber 30 is expelled through channels 27, 25 and 24, whereby ball 26 is lifted from its seat so that the air may pass unhindered and with full speed through these channels.
Although my invention has been illustrated and described with reference to the preferred embodiments thereof, I wish to have it understood that it is in no way limited to the details of such embodiments, but is capable of numerous modifications within the scope of the appended claims.
