摘要:
A circuit breaker which is remote controllable by an external remote control switch by way of an electronic control unit and an electromagnetic switch drive controlled by the electronic control unit. The switch drive switches the electric circuit by a switch lock, which is latched to it and which, during an overload, is unlatched and opened by way of the release of the bimetal of switch drive and, as a result, interrupts the electric circuit. During bimetal release, an auxiliary switch is actuated, which by way of the electronic control unit turns the remote control switch off and re-latches switch drive with the opened switch lock.

A compact, high capacity circuit breaker includes two breaking portions mounted in a single casing, with movable contacts for each portion disposed in series with one another and supported by a common switching shaft. Both portions of the breaker are tripped by either an overcurrent condition or manual operation, and the positioning of the common switching shaft maintains both breaking portions in the open state.

An electromagnetic switching apparatus with interchangeable switches is provided, including a base with a bottom and a cavity containing an electromagnet whose mobile armature, through a disconnectable transmission piece, actuates the mobile contact of a switch housed in an insulating case removably associated with a fixing face of the base opposite the bottom, said fixing surface including openings for the passage of said transmission piece, said base having connection terminals connected to contact pieces which cooperate with corresponding pieces connected to the switch.

A current-limiting load cutout includes at least one contact pair (1, 2) with one contact (3, 5) rigidly linked to electrodynamic current limiter (9, 10) that is electrically connected to controllable pulse current supply (17), and at least one emergency state sensor (12, 13, 14) kinematically linked to contact displacement and clamping assembly (11) which is kinematically linked to the other contact (4, 6) of contact pair (1, 2). The current-limiting load cutout is equipped with a pair of power terminals (20, 21, 22, 23) per each contact pair (1, 2) with one power terminal connected to the other contact (4, 6) of the contact pair (1, 2) and the other power terminal connected to contact (3, 5) which is rigidly linked to electrodynamic current limiter (9, 10) equipped with terminal (15, 16) to which a controllable pulse current supply (17) is connected via an emergency state sensor (12).
摘要:
A threshold coupling device for releasing the mobile contacts of circuit breakers when short circuits appear. A rectangular section blade (13) with longitudinal faces (13', 13") associated with a contact holder (10) is provided with balls (29, 30) which cooperate with a resilient clip (33) for providing a threshold mechanical connection between the contact (6) and an operating member (1, 2) which carries this clip. This coupling is advantageously used in circuit-breaker limiters.
摘要:
A circuit breaker having stationary contactors provided for all of the poles thereof. Movable contactors are provided for all of the poles in correspondence to the stationary contactors. Stationary contacts are provided on the end portions of stationary contactors and movable contacts are disposed on the end portions of the movable contactors. The movable contactors are movable from the stationary contactors by electromagnetic force to open respective circuits before the circuit breaker is opened by an overcurrent tripping device when large current such as short-circuit current flows. Holders adapted to hold the movable contactors of all of the poles are mounted on a common rotatable insulating rod, one of the holders being provided with a latch which is turnable around a rod provided on the holder. A slot is normally engaged with the latch, and when disengaged from the latch, a rod can be turned by the holder. A spring operates to engage the latch with the rod until an electromagnetic moment acting on the latch generated in any of the poles or the sum of electromagnetic forces generated in all of the poles reaches a predetermined value. When a predetermined value is exceeded, the movable contactors of all of the poles are simultaneously moved from the stationary contactors to open the respective circuits with the aid of the insulating rod and the holders.

A circuit interrupter includes two parallel pivoting contact arms, the lower of which is connected to a stationary conductor member using a clinch-type contact. The contact arm has an axle member rigidly attached thereto which is supported by a bearing member attached to the conductor. In one embodiment, the bearing member comprises a pair of bifurcated arms which are clamped about each end of the axle member. In an alternative embodiment, the conductor member lies generally parallel to the lower contact arm and is slotted to form a pair of elongated conductor arms, each of which supports a journal bearing member. One end of the axle is extended through each journal bearing.

A resettable high-voltage fusing device including a vacuum interrupter and an arrangement of magnetically displaceable rod members which are displaced by the magnetic forces resulting from overload currents flowing through them. For currents below the "blow" rating, a spring arrangement keeps the rods in place by applying axially opposing forces at the ends thereof, and the vacuum interrupter is kept closed. After rod displacement caused by overload current the vacuum interrupter opens in response to one of the springs released by displacement of the rods.

A circuit interrupter is constructed to utilize the electromagnetic forces generated by an overload current condition in order to drive a movable contact arm to open the contacts of the interrupter.
