  • the two fastening elements or driver elements of the two springs are diametrically opposed with respect to an imaginary axis of rotation of the contact bridge or the fixed transverse axis of the selector shaft.
  • This arrangement of the springs ensures free movement of the imaginary axis of rotation of the contact bridge in relation to the fixed transverse axis of the selector shaft and at the same time enables a moment of force for uniform distribution of the contact pressure and an elastic positioning of the contact bridge with two translational degrees of freedom, whereby the contact bridge by the self-centering effect of the springs on the longitudinal axis is held in an equilibrium position.
  • the connecting rails with the fixed contacts are loop-shaped, so that when a short-circuit current flows through them, the contact bridge generates repulsive electrodynamic forces against the force of the tension springs in the direction of a repulsion position.
  • Contact arrangement does not allow adaptation to a desired course of the restoring force acting on the electrodynamically repelled contact bridge, nor does it allow the tilting position of the electrodynamically repelled contact bridge.
  • Braking and possibly holding the contact bridge electrodynamically repelled by the fixed contacts is an opposite end of the springs on the ends of a slidably arranged in a recess of the switching shaft, designed as a transverse axis, and the contact bridge has a pair of control curves symmetrical to its axis of rotation , which are designed such that they cooperate with one of the pins in the end section of the repulsion stroke of the contact bridge in order to brake the movement of the contact bridge.
  • the pins are slidably mounted in the recesses, the diametrically opposite recesses running approximately along the line of action of the associated springs.
  • the springs ensure elastic positioning of the contact bridge in the cutout of the selector shaft and thereby define a fictitious axis of rotation of the contact bridge in relation to the selector shaft.
  • the profile of the control cams arranged in relation to the movable contact pieces causes a displacement of the pins in the recess and a continuous tension of the springs corresponding to the pivoting movement of the contact bridge in the direction of the repulsion position, with a storage of the energy in the springs.
  • the profile of the control cams can be designed so that the contact bridge locks in the push-off position; wherein the rotatably mounted switching shaft is actuated by an actuating mechanism of the circuit breaker and the opening stroke of the contact bridge is limited such that the rotation of the switching shaft during the opening movement causes the pins to lift off the control cams causes.
  • the line of action of each spring shifts and thereby shortens the lever arm, as a result of which the restoring force moment exerted by the springs on the contact bridge is reduced.
  • the invention has for its object to obtain a more favorable course of the contact force via the so-called lifting of the contact bridge in the switch-on position, which compensates for the wear of the contacts and contact pieces that occurs over time.
  • An advantageous further development consists in the formation of a locking recess in the part of the control cams which can be assigned to the end of the repelling movement, as a result of which an undesired reclosing of the contact arrangement is prevented.
  • An alternative expedient embodiment of the invention consists in guiding the contact force springs designed as compression springs through guide means formed on the contact bridge.

This prevents the contact arm 10 from falling back until the latching between the sliding elements 28 and the latching recesses is released by resetting the actuated switch 6 by rotating the selector shaft 6 clockwise.
