摘要:
A circuit breaker includes a frame, at least one conductor supported by the frame, and a breaker mechanism supported by the frame and including a trip bar assembly that actuates the breaker mechanism. The circuit breaker also includes a magnetic armature assembly including an armature plate configured to move responsive to a current in the at least one conductor and an elongate link member (e.g., a rod) coupling the armature plate to the trip bar and having at least one flanged portion retained in at least one keyed slot in at least one of the armature plate and the trip bar assembly. The elongate link member may have a narrowed portion sized to allow passage of the link member through a narrowed portion of the at least one keyed slot to facilitate engagement of the at least one flanged portion in the at least one keyed slot.

A D/C trip assembly for a circuit breaker is provided. The D/C trip assembly includes a magnet, a mounting assembly and an armature assembly. The mounting assembly includes a body, the mounting assembly body including a pivotal coupling. The armature assembly includes a magnetic body and a trip bar linkage, the trip bar linkage extending from the armature assembly body. The armature assembly body is structured to move between a first position, wherein the armature assembly body is close to the magnet, and a second position, wherein the armature assembly body is spaced from the magnet. The trip bar linkage is structured to move between a first position and a second position, the trip bar linkage positions corresponding to the armature assembly body positions. The trip bar linkage is structured to be coupled to a trip bar.
