    摘要: A circuit interrupter particularly suitable for use in an oil filled distribution transformer having an elongated contact arm pivotable about one end with a movable contact attached to the other end through suitable insulating members to electrically isolate the movable contact from the elongated contact arm. The movable contact is a bridging contact for completing a series circuit through two stationary contacts. The movable bridging contact is spring biased away from the elongated contact arm. A retainer restricts the movement of the bridging contact away from the insulating members attached to the elongated contact arm. The biasing spring is disposed between the insulating members and the retainer. Grooves formed in the sides of the insulating members restrict rotational movement of the retainer and bridging contact. For larger circuit interrupters, a bridging contact assembly can be utilized having a plurality of parallel bridging contacts and a plurality of biasing springs. The elongated contact arm is biased towards an open position when the bridging contact is separate from the stationary contacts, but with the circuit interrupter in the normally closed position is held in a closed position wherein the bridging contact is in engagement with the stationary contact. A latching mechanism which is responsive to a bimetal or magnetic trip to allow the circuit breaker to trip open during overload conditions, holds the elongated contact arm in the closed position.

    摘要: A distribution transformer having a secondary circuit breaker utilizing a movable bridging contact between two stationary contacts for completing a series circuit therethrough. The movable bridging contact is spring biased towards an open position separated from the stationary contacts, but with the circuit breaker in the normally closed position is held in engagement with the stationary contacts by a latching mechanism which is responsive to a bimetal or magnetic trip element to allow the circuit breaker to trip open during overload conditions. The conducting bridging contact completes a series circuit through the circuit breaker which opens during circuit interruption. The secondary circuit breaker can also, if desired, be provided with a signal-light circuit which activates a signal light, on the exterior housing of the transformer, when current through the circuit breaker exceeds a low signal overload value which is less than the trip value. The signal light circuit is reset by turning the operator handle, which is located on the transformer housing, past the on position away from the off position. An emergency overload control is provided for increasing the tripping level of the circuit breaker during selected overload periods. The bridging contact is disposed near the end of an elongated operating arm which is linked to the circuit breaker operating mechanism. A plurality of poles are operated utilizing only one operating mechanism by connecting the elongated operating arms with a strong metallic member for simultaneous operation of all poles. The single signal light provided for each multi-pole circuit breaker can be activated by the bimetals of any one of the individual poles.

    摘要: An oil filled distribution transformer having a secondary circuit breaker utilizing a cantilevered stationary contact which is engaged by a movable contact for completing a series circuit therethrough. The cantilevered exposed stationary contact, which is surrounded by insulating oil, allows the oil in the transformer to rapidly return to the contact area after circuit interruption providing for faster arc extinction. The movable contact can be a bridging contact which forms a circuit between the cantilevered stationary contact and a second stationary contact mounted above a support base. The movable bridging contact is spring biased toward an open position separated from the stationary contact, but with the circuit breaker in the normally closed position is held in engagement with the stationary contact by a latching mechanism which is responsive to a bimetal or magnetic trip to allow the circuit breaker to trip open during overload conditions. The front cantilevered contact is completely surrounded by oil. During circuit interruption the oil in the contact area vaporizes forming an arc bubble of gas. Exposing the contact to allow free flow of oil into the area of the arc bubble allows for faster arc extinction and circuit interruption under fault conditions.

The disclosed circuit interrupter is provided with a bimetal and a magnetic trip element directly connected to the latch of the circuit interrupter which is drawn towards the bimetal, unlatching the circuit interrupter when current flow therethrough exceeds a high overload level. The disclosed circuit interrupter is particularly adaptable for use on a distribution transformer. A movable bridging contact for completing a series circuit between two stationary contacts is provided. The movable bridging contact is spring biased towards an open position separated from the stationary contacts, but with the circuit interrupter in the normally closed position is held in engagement with the stationary contacts by a latching mechanism which is responsive to the bimetal or magnetic trip element to allow the circuit breaker to trip open during overload conditions. The magnetic trip element is formed integral with the latching mechanism to reduce time delay before operation. A plurality of poles are operated using only one operating mechanism by connecting the elongated operating arms with a strong metallic member for simultaneous operation of all poles. The bridging contact is disposed near the end of an elongated operating arm which is linked to the circuit breaker operating mechanism. Each pole of the circuit interrupter is provided with a bimetallic trip element. The magnetic trip element can be formed from a single piece having a plurality of legs each disposed in proximity with the bimetal of one pole.

    摘要: A circuit interrupter including a releasable latch restrained by a stamped metal rotatable cam having a latching surface in sliding contact with the latch member. The rotatable cam is inclined at an angle to the axis of rotation so as to cause only the smooth portion of the latching surface produced by the shearing action of the stamping process to contact the latch member. The rough portion of the latching surface produced by tearing action of the stamping process is not in contact with the latch member, thereby eliminating the need for a machining operation to provide a low friction contact surface with the latch member.
