Abstract:
La présente invention concerne un appareil de coupure électrique comportant par phase, un contact fixe dit amont et un contact fixe dit aval, lesdits contacts fixes étant supportés respectivement par un support de contact fixe amont et un support de contact fixe aval et étant reliés électriquement respectivement à une ligne de puissance amont et à une ligne de puissance aval, lesdits contacts fixes étant destinés à coopérer respectivement avec deux contacts mobiles respectivement amont et aval, lesdits contacts mobiles étant supportés chacun par un support de contact, lesdits supports de contact étant aptes à être déplacés en même temps en translation par un porte-contacts commandé par un actionneur. Cet appareil est caractérisé en ce qu'il comporte des moyens M pour transformer, lors d'une manoeuvre d'ouverture de l'appareil en présence d'une microsoudure entre l'un des contacts mobiles et le contact fixe associé, le mouvement de translation du support (3,12) de contact associé au contact mobile en un mouvement combiné de translation et rotation du contact mobile (6,15) de manière à exercer aux points de contact entre le contact mobile (6,15) et le contact fixe (7,18), un effort de cisaillement apte à rompre la microsoudure précitée (m).
Abstract:
Provided is a reliable contact mechanism which requires less driving force and therefore less power consumption for breaking contacts. The contact mechanism engages driving projection 43 on one of ends of sliding card 40 with a distal end of movable contact plate 60, slides the card 40 to rotate movable contact plate 60, and causes movable contact 56 on the movable contact plate 60 to make and break contacts with stationary contact 52. A driving projection 43 on one end of card 40 engages a returning elastic tongue 67c provided on the distal end of the plate 60 to make contacts with driving projection 43, when movable and stationary contacts 56, 52 are in in contact with each other.
Abstract:
AMF contact for vacuum interrupter, with concentric opposing contact pieces, wherein the contact pieces consist of an external electrode shaped like a coil with a plate as bottom plate of the electrode, and generating a strong axial magnetic field, and an inner internal electrode as top electrode, carrying the nominal current, according to the preamble of claim 1. In order to to design the outer electrode in order to generate the axial magnetic field as requested for the application, with potentially superior performances to the competitors, the invention is, that between the top electrode and the bottom plate is arranged a rod, which is at one end fixed at that lower side of the top electrode and the other end of the rod is guided trough an opening of the bottom plate, wherein at that end of the rod the rod is being furnished with an extended head in such, that the extended head of the rod locks or tightens the rod in a defined axial position. Furthermore the solution can be applied for the standard AMF or TMF (cup) contacts to reinforce them.

Abstract:
The invention relates to a device and to a method for switching electrical load circuits (2), comprising an electromagnetic contactor (1) having a magnetic drive that is formed from a magnet yoke (1.1) by a magnet coil (1.2) and a magnet armature (1.3) to which a contact bridge (1.4) is coupled by means of a contact retainer (1.5) as a movable contactor contact, wherein in the switched-on state the contactor (1) generates a magnetic retaining force (F H ) for contacting the contact bridge (1.4) having fixed contacts (A, B), wherein the retaining force (F H ) results from a magnetic field generated by the magnet coil (1.2) and the retaining force (F H ) is greater than an armature opening force (F R ). According to the invention, an overload contact (M) is integrated in an exciter current circuit (5) of the magnet coil (1.2) in such a way that, if the exciter current circuit (5) closed and a movement of the contact bridge (1.4) against the magnetic retaining force (F H ) occurs, the magnet coil (1.2) can be short-circuited by closing the overload contact (M).
Abstract:
In an initial state where a push rod is pressed down, a base of a movable contact point board supporting a movable contact point makes contact with inclined protruding portions of a moving block by a second spring to be inclined. When the movable contact point makes contact with a fixed contact point following the projecting of the push rod, the base makes contact with stoppers. Thereafter, since the moving block alone rises, the movable contact point board rotates following the end edges of the stoppers according to release of the pressing by the protruding portion. Thereby the movable contact point largely slides and is displaced to the fixed contact point. Since a leg of a movable contact point plate that extends from the base and is provided with the movable contact point is in advance deflected by an arm portion of a pressing member, a contact pressure between the movable contact point and the fixed contact point is high from a moment of the contacting. An excellent wiping operation can be obtained by the large sliding displacement and the high contact pressure.
Abstract:
There is provided a switch including a supporting terminal 21 assembled to a base 10; a movable contact piece 30, made of a band-shaped conductive material bent to a substantially J-shaped cross section, having a movable contact 31 at one end and having an intermediate portion rotatably supported by a rotation receiving portion 24 of the supporting terminal 21; a plunger 40 accommodated so as to be movable up and down in an internal space formed by fitting a housing 60 to the base 10; and a coil spring 50 including a forced dissociation bent portion 53 at one end and being rotatably supported by the plunger 40. In particular, the plunger 40 is moved up and down to slidably move one end of the coil spring 50 while pressure contacting the other end edge of the movable contact piece 30 to invert the movable contact piece 30 and contact or separate the movable contact 31 to and from a fixed contact 26, and to lock a distal end of a forced dissociation bent portion 53 to the other end edge of the movable contact piece 30 and exert a shear force on the movable contact 31 of the movable contact piece 30.
