These means may be in the form of a core and/or a sleeve of a flexible cellular material with closed cells, or of a deformable container filled with a gas under an appropriate pressure, or of calibrated holes which connect the inner space of the cartridge with the outside, the inner ends is more particularly adapted for operation within an oil tank.
10 Claims, 2 Drawing Figures FUSE CARTRIDGE The present invention relates to fuse cartridges and it more particularly concerns those which are intended for being immersed in an insulating oil.
It is known that electric current converters operating with semi-conductor devices are often immersed in an insulating liquid within an appropriate tank. The fuse cartridges adapted to protect such converters should also be disposed within the tank. Since it is relatively difficult and expensive to realize a perfectly oil-tight fuse cartridge it has been proposed to provide such a cartridge with holes through which oil may fill its inner space. But such an arrangement has the disadvantage that when the cartridge blows, the resulting pressure wave is no more damped by an air cushion as in ordinary cartridges. The cartridge body is therefore submitted to abnormally high pressures and it may burst before the electric arc is quenched by the arc quenching material generally provided within the cartridge.
It is an object of the present invention to provide a fuse cartridge which may operate in a quite satisfactory In accordance with the present invention a fuse cartridge comprises within its outer body means for absorbing a fraction of the energy which appears in the form of a pressure wave when the cartridge operates. The said means are preferably formed of a mass of a flexible cellular material with closed cells. In a modified embodiment these means may comprise a deformable gas-tight container filled with a gas under an appropriate pressure.
According to another modification the said means comprise calibrated holes through which the inner space of the cartridge may communicate with the outer liquid mass in which the cartridge is immersed.
In the accompanying drawings:
FIG. I is a longitudinal section ofa fuse cartridge according to the invention.
' FIG. 2 is a longitudinal section of a modified embodiment.
Referring to FIG. 1 the fuse cartridge comprises a tubular insulating outer body 1, made for instance of a ceramic material or of an appropriate synthetic material re-inforced by glass fibres. Each end of this body 1 is closed by a metallic head 2, preferably made of copper, the said heads being electrically connected with each other by a number of fusible elements 3 in the conventional manner. In the example illustrated heads 2 are secured in position by radial screws such as 4. Each head 2 has an outwardly opening screw-threaded blind bore 2a which receives a gudgeon 5. The eyelet 6 provided at the end of the corresponding wire 7 is clamped on this gudgeon by means of a nut 8. Each head further comprises an inner cylindrical boss 2b on the periphery of which the corresponding ends of the fusible elements 3 are soldered.
A central cylindrical mass or core 9 ofa flexible cellular material with closed cells, as for instance neoprene, is axially disposed within the cartridge between bosses 2b, the fusible elements 3 being arranged around said core and at a distance therefrom. A tubular layer or sleeve 10 made of a similar material is further provided against the inner side of body 1. The annular space comprised between the central mass 9 and the sleeve 10 is filled with an appropriate arc quenching material 11 such as quartz sand, in which elements 3 are embedded.
When the fuse cartridge of FIG. 1 is immersed in an insulating oil, since its heads 2 are not mounted in a perfectly liquid-tight manner, it becomes progressively filled with oil, the latter impregnating the arc quenching material 11. But when the cartridge operates, as for instance under the action of an overload, the pressure wave which appears in its inner space is damped by the cellular material which forms the central mass or core 9 and the peripheral sleeve 10, each closed cell of this material acting as a minute gas cushion. Bursting of the outer body 1 is thus avoided even under a severe short circuit, and the are which is formed within the arc quenching material 11 may be effectively quenched by the latter.
In the modification of FIG. 2 each head 2 has a number of perforations 2c, each being associated with a grid 12 which prevents the granular arc quenching material 11 from escaping outwardly. The operation remains substantially as above described, but when the cartridge operates a fraction of the gases generated by the inner electric arc may exhaust freely through perforations 2c if the latter have been appropriately calibrated with respect to the nominal operating rate of the cartridge. This helps to reduce the peak of the inner pressure wave to which the outer body 1 of the cartridge is submitted.
In a further modification (not illustrated) the pressure wave damping means may be in the form of a de formable container filled with a gas under an appropriate pressure, as for instance of a cylindrical box made of a synthetic material, filled with air at atmospheric pressure and disposed centrally in lieu of the cellular core 9 of FIGS. 1 and 2. Here again such a deformable container would act as a cushion for damping most of the pressure wave when the cartridge operates.
Although the fuse cartridge according to the inven tion is primarily designed for operation within an oil tank or the like, it should be understood that it might also be used under normal conditions, i. e. in the atmosphere, more particularly in the embodiment of FIG. 1, since in such a case the damping action of the cellular material would reduce in a substantial manner the pressure peak during operation and would therefore permit of providing an outer body of reduced thickness, if desired.
