Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a high voltage circuit breaker of the dielectric gas type, such as sulfur hexafluoride, under a pressure of a few bars.
  • the invention relates more particularly to a circuit breaker of the aforementioned type in which the increase in pressure due, at the time of tripping, to the appearance of an electric arc between the arcing contacts, is used to exert a motor force on the moving part; this arrangement, known for example from French patent 85 00610 filed on January 16, 1985 and published on July 18, 1986 under the number 2 576 142, makes it possible to cut the arc without requiring the use of a device too much power.
  • An object of the invention is to provide a circuit breaker in which the pressure is rapidly transmitted to the piston linked to the operating member and in which the flow of gas from the arc zone takes place quickly and without disturbance.
  • the subject of the invention is a high-voltage blow-out circuit breaker, comprising a cylindrical insulating jacket filled with dielectric gas under pressure, a fixed main contact, a fixed arcing contact and a movable assembly connected to a member.
  • operating mechanism comprising a movable main contact, a movable arcing contact and a blowing cylinder associated with a blowing nozzle and cooperating with a first piston, a second piston integral with the movable assembly and sliding in a second fixed cylinder, characterized in that the second piston has a large cross-section with respect to the cross-section of the blowing cylinder, said second piston being associated with means of communication with low pressure drops with the arc zone, said second piston being pierced with calibrated orifices to limit the pressure on the face of said piston receiving the gases heated by the arc.
  • the arcing contact consists of a first end of a metal tube coaxial with the circuit breaker, the second end of said tube being connected to said operating member, said second piston is an annular piston external to said tube and secured thereof, said means for establishing communication with low pressure drops being constituted by said tube pierced with large openings at its periphery, the inside of said tube being closed substantially in line with said piston by a part.
  • the circuit breaker shown in partial view in FIG. 1 comprises an envelope 1, made of insulating material such as ceramic, of generally cylindrical shape with axis XX and delimiting an interior volume Vo filled with dielectric gas such as sulfur hexafluoride, under a pressure of a few bars.
  • envelope 1 made of insulating material such as ceramic, of generally cylindrical shape with axis XX and delimiting an interior volume Vo filled with dielectric gas such as sulfur hexafluoride, under a pressure of a few bars.
  • the circuit breaker comprises a fixed main contact 2 connected to a first outlet not shown, and a fixed arcing contact 3, having one end 3A made of resistant alloy to the effects of the arc, such as a tungsten alloy.
  • the mobile assembly of the circuit breaker comprises a tube 4, one end of which 4A, made of an arc-resistant alloy, constitutes the movable arcing contact.
  • the tube 4 is connected, at its other end 4B, to an operating device, not shown.
  • the tube 4 is integral with a tube 5, one end of which 5A constitutes the movable main contact of the circuit breaker.
  • an insulating nozzle 6 At the end 5A is fixed an insulating nozzle 6, the neck of which is obstructed by the arcing contact 4 when the circuit breaker is in the closed position.
  • Holes 7 are made in the crown connecting the tubes 4 and 5 so that these tubes define a single and same volume V1, closed on one side by the nozzle 6.
  • the tube 5 is guided by a first tubular part 8A of a fixed metal part 8 having a second tubular part 8B of diameter much greater than that of the part 8A.
  • the part 8 is connected to a second outlet not shown.
  • the tube 5 carries a sliding electrical contact 5C cooperating with the tube 8A.
  • the connection between the tubes 8A and 8B is made by a massive portion of the part 8 in which are made openings in the form of radial chimneys 10. These chimneys are normally closed by a slide 11 of which an annular end 11A cooperates with a circular joint 8C at the base of the chimneys. The end 11A also serves to limit the stroke of the slide coming into abutment on the base of the chimneys opposite the joint 8C.
  • the slide 11A has the general shape of a tube; it is integral with a tubular portion 11B which can slide on the tube 4 which serves as a guide.
  • a seal is ensured by a seal 12.
  • the slide 11 is also guided by the fixed part 8A which has an appropriate boss 8D.
  • the annular space between the tubes 11 and 11B can be closed by an annular valve 13 whose stroke is limited by a projection 11C of the part 11B.
  • the piston 15 defines with the tubes 8A and 8B a volume V2.
  • the piston has openings 14A which can be closed by an annular valve 16, the stroke of which is limited by a projection 14B.
  • the cross section of the piston is large with respect to the cross section of the blowing cylinder, for example the diameter ratio is at least equal to 2.
  • the piston 14 also has calibrated openings 14C whose role will be explained below.
  • the tube 4 is pierced with very large openings 15 on its surface in communication by large passages, the volume V2 with the volume V3 inside the tube 5. It is noted that the volume V3 is closed, on the operating member side by a disc 17 secured to the tube 4.
  • the circuit breaker works as follows:
  • the circuit breaker operating device drives the moving assembly (tubes 4 and 5, nozzle 6, piston 14) to the right of the figure.
  • the main contacts separate and the current then flows through the arcing contacts 3 and 4.
  • an arc 20 (fig.2) is formed; it strongly heats the surrounding gas and the pressure increases strongly.
  • the volume V1 is closed by application of the valve 13.
  • the hot gas escapes through the volume V3 surrounding the axis and passes through the openings 15 in the volume V2.
  • the pressure prevailing in the volume V1 produces at the first zero crossing of the current an expansion of gas through the nozzle 6, which produces the extinction of the arc.
  • the pressure in the volume V1 is sufficient to press the valve 13 against its seat; the expansion of volume V1 at zero current crossing is enough to cut the arc.
  • the operating member moves the moving assembly to the right of the figure.
  • a slight overpressure in the volume V2 causes the valve 16 to close on the one hand, and on the other hand, combined with a slight depression in the volume V1, causes the slide 1 to move to the left.
  • the valve 13 opens, which allows filling of the volume V1 without requiring any particular effect due to a vacuum important in volume V1.
  • the invention applies to high and medium voltage circuit breakers.
