Definitions

  • ABSTRACT A vacuum type circuit interrupter having a main arcing shield, surrounding the contacts, which is provided with arc inhibiting means preventing migration of the arc root along the external surface of the main arcing shield.
  • an insulating coating is applied to the external surface of the main arcing shield to prevent arc movement.
  • auxiliary end shields which are supported from the main arcing shield, are disposed around the free ends of the main arcing shield preventing arc movement to the outer surface of the main arcing shield.
  • Auxiliary end shields can either be directly attached to the main arcing shield or connected to the main arcing shield through insulating members.
  • the main arcing shield generally tubular shaped, has a circumferential groove formed around the main arcing shield near the end. This groove which can be either inwardly projecting or outwardly projecting with respect to the longitudinal axis of the vacuum interrupter limits migration of an arc from traveling along the outside surface of the main arcing shield.
  • the various arc inhibiting means described can be used singly or in combination to restrict arc movement.
  • VACUUM INTERRUIPTER SHIELD PROTECTOR BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION This invention relates to vacuum type circuit interrupters and more particularly to an improved construction of the main arcing shield.
  • an envelope or housing fabricated from a suitable insulating material such as glass, ceramic or the like forms a vacuum chamber in which a pair of separable contacts or electrodes are disposed.
  • In the closed position direct electrical connection exists between the contacts of the interrupter and a continuous current path is established through the interrupter.
  • the contacts In the open circuit position the contacts are spaced apart forming an arcing gap and no current can flow therebetween.
  • current interruption is initiated by separating the contacts. When the contacts separate an arc is formed across the arcing gap.
  • the arc vaporizes a portion of the metallic contact material and these particles become ionized to help sustain the are through which current flows until a natural current zero is reached. After the current Zero point has been reached, recovery voltage transients begin building up between the separated contacts. If the dielectric strength of the gap is sufficiently strong to withstand the recovery voltage transients, breakdown will not occur, the arc will not reignite and circuit interruption will be complete. If the internal insulating surfaces of the vacuum interrupter are not protected, the metallic vapors and particles formed during arcing will condense on the internal surfaces and form a metallic coating. After a number of interruptions a metallic coating will form a shorting path and cause the interrupter to fail.
  • a main metallic shield located between the insulating surfaces and the arc formed during interruption.
  • This main metallic shield is either fixed to one end cap of the interrupter or it is supported by the insulating wall as exemplified by U.S. Pat. No. 3,185,860. Most of the metallic vapor then condenses on the shielding surfaces before reaching the insulating surfaces of the vacuum interrupter.
  • This shielding thus collects the particles and condenses the metallic vapor given off from the electrodes during arcing, protecting the insulating envelope or housing of the circuit interrupter.
  • any arc generated during interruption should be confined to the electrode or contact and not come into contact with the metal shielding. Due to the confined space in the vacuum interrupter there is a possibility, however, that the arc will strike the shielding.
  • the main function of the central arcing shield in the vacuum interrupter is to prevent metallic vapors from settling on. the surface of the insulating envelope.
  • cathode spots formed during arcing to-the shield can travel along a shield surface, surmount the edge and form a discharge on the outside of the main metallic shield, depositing a conducting layer of metal vapor on the internal surface of the insulating envelope.
  • cathode spot traces on the outside of the central floating shield are found regularly in interrupters having a single floating shield. If the arc formed during interruption contacts this shielding it is desirable that the are which does occur be confined to the inside of the main arcing shield surface facing away from the insulating envelope. If cathode spots travel to the outside of the main shield and these surfaces face the insulating surface of the vacuum interrupter, metal vapors sputtered from the cathode spots will be deposited on the insulating envelope and eventual interrupter failure will result.
  • a vacuum type circuit interrupter comprising an insulating envelope generally tubular in shape, two metallic end caps mounted on opposite ends of the insulating envelope in sealing relationship, a stationary contact assembly, a movable contact assembly with the contact movable along the longitudinal axis of the insulating envelope into and out of engagement of the stationary contact, and a main shield having a general tubular shape and being constructed to confine any arc formed during circuit interruption to the inside of the shielding surface facing away from the insulating envelope.
  • Pressure within the insulating envelope under normal conditions is lower than 10* Torr to assure that the mean free path for electron travel will be long with respect to the potential breakdown distance within the envelope.
  • auxiliary shields which are supported from the main arcing shield by an annular insulating member are provided surrounding the free ends of the main arcing shield.
  • This construction can simulates three floating shields as exemplified by U.S. Pat. No. 3,792,214 to R. E. Voshall which has been found to be very effective in containing cathode spots within the main arcing shield.
  • auxiliary shields which are electrically connected and supported from the main arcing shield are provided surrounding the ends of the main arcing shield.
  • the auxiliary shields can extend past the end of the arcing shield, be even with the end of the arcing shield, or be recessed from the end of the arcing shield.
  • Such auxiliary shields will catch the vapor from the cathode spots which have traveled to the outside of the main shield.
  • By field shaping these auxiliary shields may also prevent cathode spots from moving to the outside of the main arcing shield.
  • a portion of the outside surface of the main arcing shield is coated with an insulating material.
  • Insulating material extends to the outside end of the main arcing shield.
  • the insulating material can be applied in a band around the outside surface of the end of the main arcing shield only. Due to heat dissipation and ease of application a thin insulating coating is superior to a thick insulating member surrounding a portion of the main arcing shield. This insulating coating would preclude a migration of cathode spots to the outside of the main arcing shield as they will only burn on electrically conducting surfaces.
  • circumferential grooves are formed around the main arcing shield near the ends. That is, the ends of the main arcing shield are contoured to form a groove which will inhibit arc movement.
  • the groove formed near the end of the main arcing shield can either face toward the longitudinal axis of the vacuum interrupter or away from the longitudinal axis of the vacuum interrupter.
  • FIG. 1 is a sectional view of a vacuum circuit interrupter comprising a main arcing shield illustrating one embodiment of the present invention
  • FIG. 2 is a sectional view of a vacuum interrupter similar to FIG. 1, but with the auxiliary end shields electrically connected to the main arcing shield;
  • FIG. 3 is a sectional view of a vacuum interrupter having a main arcing shield utilizing another embodiment of the present invention
  • FIG. 4 is a sectional view of a vacuum interrupter having a main arcing shield utilizing another embodiment of the invention.
  • FIG. 5 is a sectional view of a vacuum interrupter similar to FIG. 4, but with outward projecting circumferential grooves near the ends of the main arcing shield.
  • the vacuum circuit interrupter comprises a highly evacuated tubular envelope '12 formed from glass or suitable ceramic material and a pair of metallic end caps 14 and 16 closing off the end of the insulating envelope 12. Suitable seal means 24 are provided between the end caps 14 and 16 and the insulating envelope 12 to render the inside of the insulating envelope 12 vacuum tight.
  • the pressure within the insulating envelope 12 under normal conditions is lower than 10 Torr to insure that the mean free path for electrons will be longer than the potential breakdown path within the envelope 12.
  • Located within the insulating envelope 12 are a pair of relatively movable electrodes or contacts 18 and 20.
  • the upper contact 18 is a stationary contact secured to a conducting rod 32 by suitable means such as welding or brazing.
  • the conducting rod 32 is rigidly joined to the stationary end cap 14 by suitable means such as welding or brazing.
  • the lower contact 20 is a movable contact and is joined to a conductive operating rod 34.
  • the operating rod 34 is suitably mounted for movement along the longitudinal axis of the insulating envelope 12.
  • the operating rod 34 projects through an opening 36 through bellows end cap 16 as shown.
  • a metal bellows 38 is secured in I sealing relationship at its respective oppositeends to theoperating rods 34 and to the bellows end cap.l6.
  • Flexible metallic bellows 38 provides a seal about the operating rod 34 to allow for movement of the operating rod 34 without impairing the vacuum within the inment with the stationary contact 18 so to close the interrupter 10.
  • the actuating means is also capable of returning the movable contact 20 to its open circuit position during circuit interruption.
  • a cup shaped shield 43 is attached to the movable operating rod 34 and partially surrounds the flexible metallic bellows 38 to prevent the bellows 38 from being bombarded by are generated metallic vapors or particles.
  • the speed with which the vapors generated during arcing are removed determines the steady state operating conditions during arcing and also the recovery capability of the unit. If the vapor is not quickly removed, high voltage transients may cause the arc to reignite after it has been extinguished resulting in failure of the interrupter 10.
  • This embodiment is explained for a floating main shield 40, however it is to be understood that main shield 40 could be electrically connected to end cap 14, 16 and- /or mechanically supported from end cap 14, 16.
  • the movable contact 20 separates from the stationary contact 18 and an arc develops across the arcing gap.
  • the arc that is formed vaporizes some of the material from the contacts 18 and 20 and the resulting metallic vapor and particles are ejected radially outward from the arcing gap, in a straight line.
  • the arc can contact the main arcing shield 40. When this results it is desirable that the are be contained to the inner facing surface of the main shield 40. That is, it is desirable that no portion of the arc can proceed to the outside surfaces of the shield 40 which are exposed to the insulating housing 12.
  • auxiliary shields 50, 52 attached to the main arcing shield 40 to prevent arcs formed during circuit interruption from migrating to the outside of the shield 40.
  • Shields 50 and 52 are connected to annular insulating members 54 and 56 which are attached to the main shield 40. This construction permits auxiliary shield 50 and 52 to be physi cally supported from main shield 40 while being electrically insulated therefrom.
  • Auxiliary shields 50 and 52 surround the ends of the main arcing shield 40 and project within the end cap shields 42 and 44. Shields 50 and 52 can be of any desired circular shape. Shields 50 and 52 function to simulate a three floating shield construction as shown in US. Pat. No. 3,792,214.
  • FIG. 2 there is shown a vacuum interrupter 10 with the main arcing shield 40 having metallic end shields 60 and 62 directly connected thereto.
  • End shields 60 and 62 are electrically and mechanically connected to main shield 40.
  • Shields 60 and 62 are shown schematically like the frustum of a right circular cone with the smaller diameter portion attached to the main arcing shield 40 at point 64.
  • the larger diameter portions of shields 60 and 62 project beyond the ends of the main arcing shield 40 within the confines of end cap shields 42 and 44.
  • Auxiliary shields 60 and 62 surround the ends of the main arcing shield 40.
  • the auxiliary shields 60 and 62 protect the inner surface of the insulating envelope 12 if the cathode spots should migrate to the outside surface of main shield 40 between shield 60 or 62.
  • the main shield 40 has an external insulating coating 70 applied to the outer surface.
  • Insulating coating 70 projects to the ends of main shield 40 and surrounds at least the end portions of main shield 40.
  • the insulating material can be spray coated on the outer surface of main arcing shield 40. This insulating coating 70 precludes a migration of cathode spots to the outer surface of shield 40.
  • a thin insulating coating bonded to the main shield is superior to an external insulating member attached to the shield, due to heat transfer properties and simplicity of application.
  • FIGS. 4 and 5 there is shown a vacuum interrupter wherein the main arcing shield 40 is constructed with a circumferential groove positioned near each end to prevent migration of an arc to the outside surface.
  • the grooves 80 are disposed so that the depressed portion projects towards the longitudinal axis of vacuum interrupter 10.
  • the end of main shield 40 also includes a lip portion 82 which projects towards the longitudinal axis of vacuum interrupter 10. Because of the circumferential groove 80, cathode spots formed during circuit interruption will not travel to the outside of main arcing shield 40.
  • FIG. 5 shows a vacuum interrupter 10 having a main arcing shield 40 with circumferential grooves 90 formed near the ends thereof.
  • the depressed portion of circumferential groove 90 projects away from the longitudinal axis of the vacuum interrupter 10.
  • the ends of the main arcing shield 40 have a lip portion 92 which projects away from the longitudinal axis of the vacuum interrupter 10.
  • Circumferential grooves 90 prevent cathode spots from migrating to the outside of the main arcing shield 40.
  • the main arcing shields 40 as described in this disclosure have the advantage of preventing cathod spots from migrating to the outside of the shield 40. Therefore the possibility of depositing metal vapor on-the inside walls of the insulating envelope 12 or causing other damage to the insulation is minimized.
  • the arcing control means described can be used singly or in combination to prevent an are formed during circuit interruption from migrating to a position where metal vapors or particles can be deposited on the inside surface of insulating envelope 12. It is understood that if the main arcing shield extends to one of the end caps, the arcing control means described refer to the free end of the shield. It is to be further understood that the various arc control means can be used singly or in combination to provide the desired are control.
