Definitions

  • the invention relates to an arrangement for the two-pole or multi-pole connection and disconnection of consumers, preferably of domestic appliances, by means of a spring-loaded contact parts of two separate contact systems which can be actuated by means of entrainment and which can be brought into contact with fixed contact parts.
  • the two separate contact systems each consist of separately movable spring-loaded contact slides, one of which can be brought into operative connection with the two contact parts via different drivers. This makes it possible to open the circuit with welded contact parts and thus e.g. to switch off the faulty heating circuit.
  • the following faults are not recorded: The short to ground with a risk of fire is not noticed, so that welding the remaining intact contact leads to a dangerous fault, namely that the heating is not switched off.
  • the reactivation of the single-pole remote-controlled switching device would lead to a new short circuit with further consequential damage.
  • the invention is therefore based on the object, in an arrangement of the type mentioned above, to ensure in a simple manner that the faulty contactor is prevented from being switched on again. This is achieved in a simple manner in that, depending on the relative La 2 Syr / 12.11.1984 Movement between a welded contact part and the drive moving in the opening direction of the contacts, a locking of the drive is provided in the switch-on direction.
  • transformer control switches with a separate tap changer and load switch it is known per se (DE-C-171 618), via complex, intermediate spring mechanisms, a malfunction either at the next attempt to actuate the switch or when the malfunction occurs only during operation to display while the switch is blocked at the same time.
  • the locking can be achieved practically without additional effort if the locking consists of a hook-like bent tongue on the movable contact part, which engages spring-loaded in a recess in the contact carrier forming the drive.
  • the hook-shaped bent tongue is formed by a tab cut out from a leaf spring.
  • a symmetrical construction of the switching device with regard to the fixed contact pieces becomes possible if the entrainment is arranged in a plate-like manner with the narrow side walls facing one another on one side of the plate, each with a cage-shaped projection that guides the contact bridge, one half of which projects beyond the other plate, whereby the formation of one plate in the direction of movement of the driver is behind that of the other plate.
  • the fixed contact parts can be fastened in a simple manner in a cover part opposite the plates for the switching device symmetrically to the central axis if the longitudinal direction of the contact bridges run parallel to the surface of one side of the plate.
  • a compact structure for the arrangement can be achieved by coordinating the ways of driving in such a way that, in the event of a fault, driving is supported on the inner wall of the housing immediately after the closing pressure has passed through the end of the slide and thus limits the switch-on path of the other, undisturbed driving so closely that no contact can be made.
  • the arrangement shown in the drawing for the two-pole or multi-pole switching off of consumers 1, in the present case the heating of the washing machine, consists of the leaf springs 2, 3, one fixed side 4 or 5 of which is connected to the supply lines R and MP and the other movable side 6, 7 is provided with the contact pads 8, 9, which together with the fixed contact parts 10, 11 form the contact.
  • the slide-shaped drive 12 is counter to the spring 13 in the direction of the arrow 14, for example by a magnetic drive consisting of armature 15, yoke 16 and coil 17 is moved.
  • the middle parts 18, 19 of the leaf springs 2, 3 come to rest with edges 20, 21 of the recesses 22, 23 in the slide-shaped drive 12.
  • Hook-shaped bent tongues 24 are formed on the leaf springs, which in the normal case resiliently rest on the sliding surface 25 of the slide-shaped drive.
  • the armature 15 picks up and causes the slide-shaped drive 12 to move in the direction of the arrow 14; the contacts are closed. If, for example, welding now occurs between the contact pad 9 and the fixed contact part 11, the leaf spring 3 remains in the bent, i.e. the contact closing position.
  • the back pressure spring 13 pushes the slide-shaped drive 12 against the direction of the arrow 14, separates the contact pad 8 from the fixed contact part 10, so that the circuit is opened with one pole. Due to the relative displacement between the slide-shaped drive 12 and the leaf spring 3, the tongue 26 of the leaf spring 3 snaps into a recess 27 in the slide-shaped drive 12.
  • the slide-shaped drive 12 moves in the direction of the arrow 14 excluded, since the leaf spring 3 rests on the contact part 9 on the fixed contact part 11 and thus prevents the movement of the slide-shaped drive 12 by the contact of the tongue 26 on the edges of the recess 27. In this way, the drive can be locked in the switch-on direction in a simple manner.
  • the tongue 28 causes the locking in an equivalent manner by snapping into the recess 29 in the slide-shaped drive 12, whereas the electrical separation is brought about by lifting the contact pad 9 off the fixed contact part 11. It is practically only possible to switch on the arrangement after the welding has been removed by a specialist, for example by replacing the contact parts.
  • FIG. 3 shows a further embodiment of the arrangement according to the invention.
  • the tongues 26, 28 are formed by a flap being removed.
  • the leaf springs 2, 3 are guided in window-shaped recesses 30, 31 which correspond to the recesses 22, 23 of the drive according to FIG. 1 and 2 correspond.
  • the latching recesses for the tongues are designated by the reference numerals 32, 33 in the exemplary embodiment according to FIG. 4.
  • Fig. 3 shows the locked position of the arrangement; the tongue 26 is engaged in the locking recess 32.
  • the drive 12 cannot move, even though the coil 17 is under voltage, which attempts to attract the armature 15, since the leaf spring 2 rests on the fixed contact part 10 via the contact pad 8.
  • switching on the arrangement for an existing short circuit is practically no longer possible.
  • two separate contact slides 34, 35 are operatively connected to contact bridges 36, 37.
  • the contact slides 34, 35 are displaced in the longitudinal direction by separate hinged armature parts 38, 39, which cooperate with the magnet (not shown in any more detail), as a result of which the contact bridges 36, 37 lie on the fixed contact parts 40 with their supports.
  • Each of the two contact slides 34, 35 is with one Return spring 41 loaded with return spring force.
  • the contact pressure spring for the contact bridges 36, 37 have the reference symbol 42.
  • the contact slide 34 is provided with a locking slide 43 which is spring-loaded in a cage 44 via the spring 45 in the direction of the other contact slide 35.
  • the locking slide 43 can engage with its free end in recesses 46, 47 of the contact slide 35, provided that a relative movement between the two contact slides 34 and 35 has occurred by a corresponding amount.
  • the hinged armature parts 38, 39 are tightened so that the contact slides 34, 35 move in the sense of the compression of the back pressure springs 41 on both sides until the supports of the contact bridges 36, 37 with the fixed contact parts 40 in contacting connection.
  • the contact pressure springs 42 are tensioned; the contact bridges 36, 37 each protrude through window-shaped openings 48 in the contact slide not supporting the contact pressure spring for the corresponding contact bridge, so that a relative movement between the two contact slides 34, 35 is possible. If, for example, the contact bridge 36 welds to the supports with the fixed contact parts 40, the contact slide 34 is only moved until the contact bridge 36 abuts the slide edge.
  • the contact slide 35 can move back freely since the hinged anchor part 39 is independent of the hinged anchor part 38.
  • the contact points formed by the contact bridge 37 with the fixed contact parts 40 are opened and then the locking slide engages in the recess 46. It can be seen that when the magnet is re-energized, the hinged armature part 39 is blocked in its switch-on direction by the contact slide 35.
  • the circuit can only be switched on again after the welded contact bridge has been repaired.
  • the recess 47 serves for locking, provided that the contact bridge 37 is welded to the fixed contact part 40. The effect is basically the same.
  • the slides 34, 35 are locked in the case of welded contacts by latching projections 49.
  • the latching projections are designed here in the form of wedge-shaped projections, in such a way that, depending on the width of the slider, two slides lying next to each other on each slide oppositely acting, wedge-shaped surfaces are present, so that when the slide 34 moves relative to the contact slide 35 or vice versa, one contact slide moves relative to the other transversely to its longitudinal movement. If the edge 50 of one contact slide latches with the edge 51 of the other contact slide, the locking of the two contact slides 34, 35 corresponding to the locking slide according to FIG. 5 has taken place.
  • the back pressure springs 41 in the example according to FIGS. 6 to 13 are arranged at a certain angle to the longitudinal direction of the contact slide. Normally, the inclined planes of the wedge-shaped formations of both slides lie on top of one another, and both slides move by the same amount at the same time, so that there is no transverse displacement.
  • the drivers or slides 34, 35 are plate-shaped.
  • a cage-shaped projection 52 is provided on the slide 34 and a cage-shaped projection 53 is provided on the slide 35.
  • FIG. 8 shows, one half of the cage-shaped projections protrude over the surface 54 of the other slide.
  • Contact bridges 36, 37 are introduced into the window-shaped opening 55 of the projections 52, 53 and are spring-loaded via contact pressure springs 56, 57. The contact pressure springs can pass through the openings 58 into the cage-shaped ones Formations are introduced.
  • the contact bridges 36, 37 run parallel to the surfaces 54 of the sliders 34, 35 and work together with the fixed contact parts 40, which, for example, end in plug connections 64 and are held in a cover part 59 for the lower part 61 of the contactor which receives the magnet system 60. Partitioned switching chambers are created by the partition walls 62. The slides 34, 35 are moved simultaneously by the hinged armature parts 38, 39 in the closing direction of the contacts in the normal case.
  • FIGS. 9 to 13 can be seen. 9 shows the off position, ie the two hinged anchor parts 38, 39 are not attracted to the magnet system 60.
  • the contact bridges 36, 37 are not connected to the fixed contact parts 40.
  • FIG. 10 shows the on position.
  • the hinged anchor parts 38, 39 have been attracted to the core of the magnet system 60.
  • the contact bridges rest against the fixed contact parts 40 under spring tension of the contact pressure springs 58.
  • Fig. 11 shows the situation of the welded contact bridge 37 with the fixed contact parts 40.
  • the slide 35 moves in the switch-off direction until the contact bridge rests against the end wall of the window 55, so that the movement is stopped.
  • the slider 34 can continue to move. It effects the separation of the contact bridge 36 from the fixed contact parts 40.
  • a lateral pivoting is possible by the corresponding design of the slide.
  • the latching projections 49 effect this pivoting until the edge 50 of one contact slide latches with the edge 51 of the other contact slide.
  • the locking takes place by the direction of action of the back pressure springs 41 in the angle described above.
  • the slide 34 is pivoted into the position shown in FIG. 12. If the magnet system 60 is now energized again, the hinged anchor parts 38, 39 are tightened. However, the hinged anchor part 39 can only travel a short distance that is, until an extension 63 of the slide 35 abuts the housing wall, and the hinged armature part 38 can only move the slide 34 until the edge 50 of one contact slide contacts the edge 51 of the other contact slide. It can be seen that a reclosure of the non-welded contacts is prevented with certainty.
