Definitions
- the invention relates to a disconnect contact block for connecting or disconnecting relatively movable busbars, consisting of a housing and in the housing parallel to one another and relatively movable relative to each other arranged bridge-like contact pieces, which have at their ends contact surfaces for contacting the busbars to be connected and the are biased against the busbars by springs, two contact pieces each being arranged opposite one another to form parallel current paths.
- Such isolating contact blocks are used, for example, in electrical switchgear with withdrawable circuit breakers.
- a disconnect contact block of this type is known from EP-B-0 107 611.
- the housing of this isolating contact block consists of sheet metal parts that are riveted or caulked together. The mutual spacing of the contact pieces is maintained by spacers with arms reaching between the contact pieces. Depending on the thickness of the busbars to be connected, isolating contact blocks with different housings are therefore required. The contact pieces and spacers, however, can be used unchanged.
- the invention has for its object to reduce the variety of types of isolating contact blocks required.
- the housing consists of two housing halves which have certain foot parts provided for through mutual contact with through openings for connecting elements and that the housing halves are provided with partitions for dividing the space provided for receiving the contact pieces are.
- the subdivision of the housing of the isolating contact block into housing halves makes it possible to manufacture isolating contact blocks for busbars of different thicknesses by mounting the housing halves at the required spacing.
- the partition walls also allow a smaller or larger number of contact pieces or those of smaller or larger thickness to be used as required.
- a particularly advantageous possibility for mounting the housing halves at two different distances is that the foot parts have a base area and at least one projection protruding from the base area with an end face, the projections being arranged such that they are offset from one another when joining together two housing halves in one position, the at least one projection of one foot part rests with its end face against the base of the opposite foot part and thereby a relatively small distance between the two housing halves is determined, while when joining two housing halves in one rotated by 180 ° Position of the projections of foot parts facing each other with their end faces on top of each other and thereby a relatively large distance between the two housing halves is determined.
- a further development of the mentioned design of the foot parts can ensure that the two housing halves are aligned against each other without canting, despite the relatively small total area of the foot parts, when the connecting elements are inserted.
- This can be done in that the projections and recesses in each foot part are arranged symmetrically to the through opening for the associated fastening means.
- a design is particularly recommended in which each of the two foot parts has four projections with essentially the same overall cross section, which are used to bring about the relatively small distance between the housing halves can be joined together to form a closed contour due to their offset arrangement. This ensures that a stable, but at the same time space-saving connection between the two housing halves is achieved, which allows only a small distance between the busbars to be connected and thus enables relatively short contact pieces.
- Each of the housing halves of the isolating contact block can have two base parts shaped like a console and provided with ribs. In this context, it is advantageous to
- each contact piece is assigned a spring and this is designed as a wire bending spring, the bent leg ends of which rest on a web which is arranged on each of the housing halves and runs transversely to the intermediate walls.
- the web mentioned can have a rib separating the leg ends for centering the spring designed as a spiral wire spring.
- the spring is centered in the chambers of the housing halves formed by the intermediate walls and this ensures a uniform contact force of the adjacent contact pieces.
- the contact pieces In order to enable a certain alignment compensation of the busbars to be connected, it is recommended that the contact pieces have an outwardly curved back surface for approximately central support on the springs.
- a desired insertion depth of the busbars in a disconnect contact block can be achieved in that the intermediate walls of the housing halves have aligned recesses for receiving a spacer, which has a rounded extension for contacting the end face of one of the busbars and that the contact pieces in one for inserting the Keeps busbars (8, 9) suitable distance.
- the extension allows a certain pivotability of the isolating contact block to compensate for misalignments.
- switchgear assemblies with movably arranged circuit breakers are a preferred area of application for isolating contact blocks of the present type.
- the isolating contact blocks are optionally connected to the circuit breaker, i.e. mobile, or stationary, i.e. at the
- the isolating contact block is particularly suitable for the application described.
- the abutments interacting with the support surfaces can be part of an insulating material housing which receives the isolating contact block and into which a busbar projects, which is fastened by means of holding members closing the insulating material housing.
- the isolating contact block is guided in the insulating housing through the support surfaces and can adjust to an alignment difference between them without adversely affecting the quality of the contacting on the busbars.
- FIG. 1 shows an isolating contact block in longitudinal section in the longitudinal direction of the busbars to be connected.
- FIG. 2 shows the isolating contact block according to FIG. 1 in cross section to the busbars to be connected.
- FIG. 3 shows a top view of the isolating contact block according to FIGS. 1 and 2.
- FIGS. 4 and 5 correspond to FIGS. 1 and 2, but the housing halves forming the isolating contact block are mounted at a greater distance than in FIGS. 1 and 2.
- FIG. 6 shows a housing part of an isolating contact block in a top view of foot parts.
- FIG. 7 shows the foot part according to FIG. 6 in a side view.
- FIGS. 8 and 9 are end views of the housing half according to FIGS. 6 and 7.
- FIG. 10 An example of the use of an isolating contact block according to the invention is shown in FIG. 10.
- the isolating contact block 1 is used for connecting dashed rails 2 and 3. These busbars are shown in contact, but not in full engagement with the isolating contact block 1.
- bridge-like contact pieces 4 are provided, each of which has a spherical contact area 5 at its ends and an outwardly curved back surface 6. With end faces 7, the contact pieces 4 are supported on walls 8 and 9, one housing half 10 each.
- Two identical housing halves 10 are assembled by means of end-side foot parts 11 and 12 (FIG. 2) and connecting elements 13 and 13 'penetrating them. Are suitable as fasteners z. B. screws of any type and rivets.
- each of the housing halves 10 is provided with intermediate walls 14, as a result of which the housing halves are divided into individual chambers, each of which accommodates a contact piece 4.
- Springs 15 formed as wire bending springs rest with their central part 16 on the curved back surface 6 of the contact pieces 4 and are supported with their leg ends 17 on one transverse to the
- Partition 14 extending web 18 of the housing halves 10 from.
- a rib 19 of the web 18 projects between the leg ends 17 and thereby centers the springs 15 with respect to the contact pieces 14.
- each of the chambers of the housing halves 10 contains two contact pieces 4 and two springs 15.
- foot parts 11 and 12 are arranged on each end of the housing on the end side, which protrude from the housing body like a console and are provided with ribs 21 for reinforcement.
- a comparison of FIGS. 1 and 2 and FIGS. 4 and 5 shows that, depending on the position in which two housing halves 10 are assembled, a smaller distance S1 (isolating contact block 1, FIGS. 1 and 2) or a between the contact pieces 4 larger distance S2 (isolating contact block 1 ', Figures 4 and 5) arises. This is based on the design of the foot parts 11 and 12, which will be discussed in more detail below with reference to FIGS. 6 to 9.
- each of the foot parts 11 and 12 has a through opening 22 for receiving the connecting elements 13 and 13 ′ shown in FIGS. 2, 3 and 4, which serve as fastening means.
- the foot part 11 has four prismatic projections 24, which are symmetrical to the through-opening 22 are arranged.
- the opposite foot part 12 also has four projections 25, which are also arranged symmetrically to the through opening 22.
- the projections 24 are so far offset from the projections 25 that there is a projection
- the difference between the distances S1 and S2 is to be influenced in that the projections 24 and 25 are dimensioned accordingly in their length. It is also possible to achieve a third distance lying between the distances S1 and S2 by providing a filler piece which is to be inserted into the spaces between the projections 26.
- the housing halves each have a foot part on opposite sides.
- the intermediate walls 14 have recesses 30 which are aligned with one another and into which a spacer 31 according to FIG. 1 is inserted.
- the spacers 31 keep the contact pieces 4 at such a distance that the busbars 2, 3 can be inserted.
- the spacer 31 is provided with a rounded projection 32, which enables the isolating contact block 1 to pivot relative to the busbar 8 when it is received between the contact pieces 4.
- FIG. 10 illustrates an application in a switchgear assembly with a movable circuit breaker.
- the previously described isolating contact block 1 is received in a recess 33 of an insulating material housing 34, which is provided for fixed attachment in the switchgear. A is shown in FIG. 10
- the fixed busbar 35 belonging to the isolating contact block 1 is fastened to the insulating material housing 34 by means of two fastening brackets 36.
- the contact pieces 4 of the isolating contact block 1 engage with the end of the busbar 35, while the opposite busbar 37 of the circuit breaker, not shown, is shown at a distance from an insertion opening 40 of the insulating material housing 34.
- the busbar 37 can be brought into engagement with the contact pieces 4 by a movement in the direction of the arrow 41.
- the isolating contact block 1 is supported on an end face 42 of the busbar 35 by means of rounded extensions 32.
- This arrangement enables an approximately parallel sliding movement of the isolating contact block 1 in the recess 33 as tolerance compensation in the event of an axial offset of the busbars 35 and 37 relative to one another.
- the isolating contact block 1 is thus supported to a certain extent in a floating manner in the recess 33 in the insulating material housing 34. This ensures a good current transfer between the busbars 35 and 37 with a correspondingly low heating of the contact points.
