Definitions

• the invention relates to a device for actuating a circuit breaker arranged in a housing for a multipole socket which is accessible from the outside, and relates in particular to such a device for supplying energy to thermal containers.
• Circuit breaker for an externally accessible multi-pin socket preferably known for the power supply (DE 197 08 358 C2), which has an externally accessible switch toggle, which is arranged on a pivot shaft, which on the toggle switch part of the inside of the container
• Circuit breaker acts.
• a reciprocating switching plate part is arranged, in the slot of the
• the switching plate part is formed with a cam track and a radial pin is attached to the pivot shaft and protrudes into the cam track for the purpose of reciprocating the
• Switch plate part when turning the swivel shaft.
• the switching knob protrudes into the plug insertion area of the socket when it is switched on, so that an inserted plug cannot be pulled out when the circuit breaker is switched on.
• the socket is designed with a socket insert which can be rotated about its geometric axis, this rotational movement being brought about with the aid of an inserted plug;
• a pivotable rod is fastened, the free end of which is formed with one element of a joint which is movable about two axes,
• Such a device is preferably used for the energy supply of thermal containers and the joint can preferably be designed as a ball-and-socket joint.
• the principle of the present invention can essentially be seen in that the switching process of the switch is accomplished with the aid of the plug. This then means that the associated switch can only be actuated via a plug, and can either be switched on when plugged in, or that the power supply has been switched off first when the plug is intended to be removed.
• this protection has been implemented in that the switch is brought into the corresponding state solely by handling the plug. If, for example, the plug is not turned when the plug is turned on, the switch is not actuated and vice versa, if it is intended to pull the plug, the plug must first be rotated so that the switch is actuated since the switch is only switched off Plug can also be pulled.
• the turning process of the plug is fixed at an angle of up to 90 ° an angle size that is sufficient to actuate the switching part of a switch via the associated functional parts.
• the switching hook has been bent from a piece of wire and runs out in a closed wire eyelet, so that the corresponding functional part can be bent into the intended shape with the aid of a simple round wire piece.
• CEE plug When transporting thermal containers, it must be ensured that they are constantly supplied with energy.
• the energy supply is usually via a power cable, which is provided with a so-called CEE plug. This plug is inserted into a CEE socket to establish the power supply.
• CEE sockets are subject to special requirements on ships, e.g. with regard to the degree of protection, the mechanical resilience, the vibration stress. The following is mandatory for container sockets on ships:
• the container sockets must be overload-proof, i.e. in the event of an overload, a "fuse" must be triggered.
• the plug may only be plugged in when there is no voltage.
• the plug must only be able to be pulled when there is no voltage.
• Fig. 1 shows a perspective view of the interior of the housing of the device according to the invention with a plug not yet inserted.
• Fig. 2 shows a view corresponding to FIG. 1 from the outside.
• Fig. 3 shows a perspective view of the interior of the housing of the device according to the invention with a plug inserted.
• FIG. 4 shows a view corresponding to FIG. 1 from the outside.
• a housing 1 has been shown schematically, so that the basically existing box shape can be seen, but not individual parts of the wall and the like.
• switches there will be several switches in such a housing 1 and, accordingly, also several sockets it does not relate to the explanation of the invention. Accordingly, only the box shape of the housing 1 can be seen in the figures.
• a circuit breaker 2 is permanently installed in the housing 1.
• the position of the circuit breaker 2 is selected so that the switching process described below is ensured. It is irrelevant whether the circuit breaker 2 with its switching axis is parallel or perpendicular to the front wall of the housing 1, it only has to be displaced on one side with respect to the geometric axis of a socket 41.
• a socket flange 4 is permanently installed on the housing wall.
• a socket insert 5 is rotatably mounted in the socket flange 4.
• the socket insert 5 has a part 51 protruding into the housing 1.
• This part 51 protruding into the housing 1 carries a switching pin which projects radially outwards 6 in the form of a rod 80 which can be pivoted widely.
• the switching pin 6 is connected to a switching hook 8 via a joint 7 which can be moved in several axes.
• the free part of the switching hook 8 is loop-shaped and encloses the switching lever 21 of the circuit breaker 2 with this loop.
• the switching lever 21 is in a position facing the front wall of the housing 1.
• the position of the joint 7 is on the side facing away from the circuit breaker 2, so that it is ensured that the socket insert 5 is in a position in which a plug 3 can be inserted into the socket.
• the plug 3 After the plug 3 has been inserted into the socket, the plug 3 is rotated about its axis in the direction of the circuit breaker 8. The plug 3 "takes" the rotatably mounted socket insert 5. As a result, the switching pin 6 or the rod 80 and the switching lever 21 of the circuit breaker 2 change their positions. Since the switch hook 8 is rigid, the switch lever 21 moves away from the front wall of the housing 1 until the circuit breaker 2 is switched on.
• a locating lug 31 on plug 3 is inserted into a suitable groove in socket flange 4.
• the position lug 31 of the plug 3 is located in a cavity 41 of the socket flange 4 which is closed towards the outside in the plugging direction. This ensures that the plug 3 is not in the switched on state of the circuit breaker 2 can be pulled out.
• the circuit breaker 2 is switched off in the reverse order.
