- This support spring 57 is inserted with at least one turn over a pin 61 'on the lock plate 29 and supported on a further pin 61 ".
- the bimetallic release 27 or the magnetic release 17 of the LS part act on the pawl support 6 of the switch lock of the LS part and pivot it, so that the pawl 3 is released and the contact spring 15 releases the movable switching bridge 5 of the LS Partly, and also via the pin 7, the switching bridge support 35 and thus the N switching bridge 36 from the contact spring 37, pivoted into the OFF position.
- the switching bridge support 35 pivots such that the permanent magnet reset 49 can pivot counterclockwise under the action of its return spring 50 and is thereby brought into the position corresponding to the OFF position (see FIG. 8).
- the pawl 31 and the storage spring 46 are also brought into the OFF position in the last third of the switch-off movement via the switching bridge support 35 and the pawl reset device 48.
- the pawl 31 remains latched to the pawl support 32 and the pointer catch 55 holds the pointer combination 33/34 so that they are not pivoted by the spring 56.
- the position of the pointers 33/34 and 24 shows that it was an overcurrent trip (or a manual switch off - by pressing the control button (1)).
- the pointer catch 55 is also pivoted over the pointer bracket 54 and releases the pointers 33, 34, whereupon the latch support spring 56 can pivot the pointers 33, 34 so that the pointer 33 becomes visible and indicates that it is a fault current trip acted.
- the other movements during the switch-off process correspond to the above-described sequences for overcurrent tripping.
- the invention can be represented as follows, for example:
- a circuit breaker has an LS part and an FI part.
- the switch lock of the LS part has a pawl support that can be locked with a pawl, which interacts with a bimetallic release and a magnetic release for tripping (overcurrent).
- the switch lock of the FI part has a pawl 31 and a pawl support 32, which is associated with a permanent magnet release with release plunger 51.
- the switching bridge of the LS part and the switching bridge 36 of the FI part are pivotally mounted about a common axis 60 in the housing of the circuit breaker.
- the switching bridge of the LS part is coupled to the switching bridge 36 of the FI part by a pin 7, which is inserted into a switching bridge support 35 for the switching bridge 36 of the FI part, for common movement.
- a bolt 69 is inserted into the pawl support of the switch lock of the LS part, which is assigned to the pawl 31 of the FI part in such a way that it contacts the bolt 69 when it pivots in the event of a fault current.
- the latch support of the LS part is pivoted in the sense of triggering the switch lock of the LS part.
