Definitions

  • the invention relates to a circuit breaker with the features of the preamble of claim 1.
  • Such a circuit breaker is known from EP-B-0 208 613 .
  • the switch housing of the circuit breaker disclosed there has two outer shells, namely a housing shell and an end shell which can be placed thereon.
  • the switching mechanism is arranged between the two shells.
  • the circuit breaker can be tripped free in the event of overcurrent, for example, by means of a bimetal connected to the switching mechanism.
  • the single-pole circuit breaker with the pole chamber formed between the housing shell and the end shell can be expanded to a multi-pole circuit breaker with a corresponding number of pole chambers.
  • one or more intermediate housing shells of identical design are inserted between the housing shell and the end shell.
  • the section of the intermediate housing shell facing the housing shell corresponds structurally to the end shell.
  • the intermediate housing shell is therefore placed on the housing shell in the same way as the end shell.
  • the section of the intermediate housing shell facing the end shell corresponds structurally to the housing shell. In this way, the single-pole circuit breaker can be expanded to a circuit breaker with any number of poles.
  • the same switching mechanism is located in each pole chamber. So that a common triggering of all poles of the circuit breaker is possible, identical switching levers, which effect the opening and closing of the electrical contacts, are coupled to all the pole chambers.
  • the coupling parts are cylindrical bolts formed on the shift levers with a longitudinal axis running perpendicular to the shell plane.
  • a shaft-like bolt is mounted on the shells in each pole chamber.
  • each bolt is affected by its own torsional moments.
  • the torsional moments additionally reduce the transmitted torque.
  • the shells of the circuit breaker are structurally very complex to enable the bolts to rotate properly.
  • the diameter of the bearing bore or the size of the bearing clearance must be taken into account. Due to the manufacturing-related influences, however, the desired storage is not always guaranteed.
  • the risk of the bolt being misaligned with respect to its bearing bore is very great. This effect increases according to the number of poles of the circuit breaker. This further reduces the torque transmitted. In extreme cases, the misalignment even leads to a blockage of the bolt. In addition, skewed bolts can damage the shells. The heating within the pole chambers leads to deformations of the bearing bores, so that the bearing of the bolts is further impaired.
  • the invention has for its object to further improve such a circuit breaker. This object is achieved by the combination of features of claim 1.
  • each shift lever is axially supported on the housing side.
  • the rotary movement of the shift lever therefore only counteracts a constant low frictional force regardless of the number of poles due to the axle bearing.
  • Such storage prevents the transmission of frictional forces on adjacent shift levers.
  • the coupling rod thereby enables a uniform transmission of the rotary movement of the immediately triggering shift lever to the other shift lever even with a larger number of poles.
  • the common tripping of all poles of the circuit breaker is therefore guaranteed.
  • the operational safety of the circuit breaker is further improved.
  • the coupling of the switching levers according to the invention further has the effect that slight manufacturing-related inaccuracies in the manufacture of the shells of the circuit breaker do not impair the transmission of the rotary movements. This greatly reduces the proportion of rejects in the manufacture of the shells. This in turn reduces the manufacturing cost of the entire circuit breaker.
  • the bearings of the shift lever can be produced with little effort and support the cost-effective production of the shells.
  • the coupling of the switching levers is easy to manufacture in terms of assembly technology and therefore also reduces costs in the manufacture of the circuit breaker.
  • the coupling takes place in a single operation, in which the coupling rod is simply pushed through the intermediate housing shells and the shift lever in the row direction immediately before the end shell is attached.
  • the shift lever act as a closed bearing for the coupling rod. This supports the even transmission of power to all gear levers.
  • the small amount of slack between the coupling rod and its bearing ensures that there is little freedom of movement for the coupling rod.
  • the lots also take production-related dimensional tolerances into account when aligning all switch levers in the row direction of the circuit breaker. This also keeps the proportion of rejects in the manufacture of the components of the circuit breaker low. Furthermore, the loose additionally simplifies the assembly of the coupling rod.
  • Claim 3 takes into account the simple manufacture of a through recess for the coupling rod.
  • the coupling rod itself can also be simply manufactured as a cylindrical rod in terms of production technology.
  • other cross-sectional shapes of coupling rods with corresponding passage recesses are also conceivable.
  • the coupling rod is adapted in terms of its length to the number of poles and to the pole chamber width of the circuit breaker in such a way that it affects the housing shell and the end shell in the final assembly state of the circuit breaker with a small distance.
  • the coupling rod is secured against inadvertent shifting movements in the row direction. All switch levers therefore remain reliably coupled to one another when the circuit breaker is in the final assembly state.
  • the coupling rod affects a correspondingly shaped recess in the intermediate housing shell.
  • the switching movements of the shift levers are also performed. Malfunctions of the shift levers are excluded.
  • the rod recess surrounds the movement path of the coupling rod with a small distance, so that deviations in the movement path due to production are also taken into account.
  • Claim 7 further supports the assembly-friendly assembly of the circuit breaker. Due to their design, the shells of the circuit breaker have several functions. For example, they act as boundary walls for the pole chambers, as a fixing means for the switching mechanism and also as a housing shaft for a switching element acting on the switching mechanism. Since the most diverse functions are implemented with a few, one-piece components, the entire mechanism of the circuit breaker is less prone to failure.
  • the one-piece production of various functional areas of the shells according to claim 7 and 8 also ensures a mechanically very stable structure of the circuit breaker.
  • Claim 10 takes into account in the manufacture of the switching element the cross-section of the housing shaft, which is dependent on the number of poles, for receiving the switching element.
  • the housing shaft can therefore also act as a guide element for guiding the switching movements of the switching element.
  • a switching element adapted to the cross section of the housing shaft acts as reliable protection against damage and as electrical hazard protection for all pole chambers of the circuit breaker. In addition, such a switching element enables convenient manual operation even with circuit breakers with a larger number of poles.
  • the switching element relieves the coupling rod.
  • One actor is assigned to one switching mechanism. When the circuit breaker is triggered manually, the switch levers are therefore acted upon directly by the effective end of the switching element and not only via the detour of a single switch lever and the coupling rod. According to claims 12 and 13, the switching element is simply mounted in terms of assembly technology.
  • the switching element can be additionally supported on this intermediate housing shell with a corresponding structural design according to claims 14 and 15, so that the mechanical stability of the pivot bearing of the switching element is ensured or improved even with a large number of poles.
  • the switching element is pivotally mounted only on some of the overall housing intermediate shells.
  • Claims 16 to 18 relate to the application of the coupling between switching element and switching mechanism known from DE 27 21 162 A1 with all its advantages to the circuit breaker according to the invention.
  • the switching element and the switching mechanism are coupled to one another via a cam rod running in the row direction.
  • Claims 17 and 18 apply the coupling of all identical shift levers according to the invention to the cam rod by means of the coupling rod at.
  • the switching element acts in a reliable manner on all switching mechanisms of the circuit breaker in a reliable manner with little effort.
  • a frame that can be easily mounted on the shells is provided as a mechanical damage protection element for the switching element.
  • the cover frame has the further function as a fixing means for the shells in the final assembly state of the circuit breaker.
  • a further fixing means is provided to further improve the mechanically stable structure of the circuit breaker housing. Since the fixing means penetrates all the shells of the switch housing, it can also serve as an assembly aid for the loose lining up of all shells during assembly.
  • Claim 23 proposes a fixative that is easy to manufacture and assemble. Since, on the one hand, the fixing means is arranged in the region of the housing base and, on the other hand, the cover frame fixes the shells in the region of the housing shaft, the switch housing, which is constructed from several shells, acts as a compact unit in the final assembly state. By releasing the cover frame or the fixing agent, the circuit breaker can be disassembled in a modular manner if necessary and therefore easy to assemble.
  • An arrangement of the rods according to claim 24 takes into account their simple assembly with a small space requirement within the pole chambers.
  • Claim 26 takes into account the structure of the circuit breaker with little space. In addition, the same level of movement allows the different Lever and the rods a very effective power transmission between the components within the pole chambers.
  • the housing of the single-pole circuit breaker shown in FIG. 1 essentially consists of a housing shell 1 and an end shell 2 oriented parallel to it. Both shells 1, 2 are displaced in a row direction 3 and are directly fixed to one another in the final assembly state with their mutually facing surfaces .

  • the release lever 6 is pivotally mounted on a cylindrical journal 10 extending in the row direction 3.
  • the rocker switch 8 is pivotally mounted on an axle pin 11. Both axle journals 10, 11 are formed on the inside of the housing shell 1 and arranged parallel to one another. However, the journal 10 extends further in the direction of the end shell 2.
  • the switching rocker 8 surrounds the axle pin 11 in the final assembly state with an axle bore passing through it in the row direction 3.
  • the corresponding hole in the release lever for its pivot mounting on the axle pin 10 is not visible in FIG. 1.
  • an active end 13 with an outline shape which tapers approximately conically in the direction of the shift lever 7 is integrally formed on the rocker switch 8.

  • the effective end 13 has a bore running in the row direction 3, which is penetrated by a cylindrical cam rod 14 in the final assembly state.
  • the cam rod 14 In the final assembly state, the cam rod 14 also passes through an approximately V-shaped cam path 15 of the shift lever 7. During the switching movement of the rocker switch 8, the cam rod 14 runs on the cam path 15.
  • the two axle journals 10, 11 are integrally formed on the inside of a housing wall 16 forming part of the housing shell 1.

  • the long sides of the slot-like shaft recess 60 run at an acute angle to the mounting direction 4 and are inclined in the direction of the rocker stop 53.
  • the shaft recess 61 is approximately at the same height as the shaft recess 60. It has a rectangular cross section with rounded corners in the shape of a quarter circle. The long sides of this rectangle run in the transverse direction 5.
  • the shaft recess 61 is assigned to the cam rod 14 and is arranged between the shaft recess 60 and the guide pin 40.
  • the shaft recess 62 has a slot-like outline shape and is assigned to the coupling rod 47.
  • the longitudinal sides of the shaft recess 62 run approximately parallel to the mounting direction 4. It is arranged between the guide pin 40 and the lever stop 45.
  • the lighting assembly 51 is clearly visible in FIG. It essentially consists of a printed circuit board 63, a glow lamp 64 and a resistor 65. Instead of a glow lamp 64, an incandescent lamp or an LED can also be used.
  • the lighting assembly 51 is in the case of a multi-pole Circuit breaker plugged onto the contact extensions 52 of two adjacent intermediate housing shells 55 and soldered. The current paths on the circuit board 63 are guided so that the desired electrical connections are realized. If it is a single-pole circuit breaker, the circuit board 63 is mounted with a connection on the contact extension 52 of the contact connection 19. The second electrical connection is brought to the circuit board 63 via the housing slot 50.
  • a cover wall 59 is also assigned to each spring arm 32. This also improves the mechanical stability of the frame wall 29.
  • the procedure for installing the circuit breaker is as follows. First, a number of intermediate housing shells 55 corresponding to the desired number of poles of the circuit breaker is lined up in row direction 3. The following applies: n-1 intermediate shells 55 are required for n poles.
  • the switching mechanism is already mounted on each intermediate housing shell 55. When the intermediate housing shells 55 are lined up, the rocker switch 8 must also be pivoted by means of the journal 58. If the required number of intermediate housing shells 55 has been joined together, the housing shell 1 is attached to the intermediate housing shell 55 that is also located with the switching mechanism already mounted. It must be ensured that the axle pin 11 engages in the axle bore 12 of the rocker switch 8.
  • the cam rod 14 is then inserted through all the cam tracks 15, through the holes in the ends 13 and through the shaft recesses 61.
  • the coupling rod 47 is inserted in the same way in the row direction 3 through all coupling bores 46 and all shaft recesses 62. Analogously to this, the coupling rod 49 passes through all coupling bores 48 and all shaft cutouts 60 in the final assembly state.
  • the end shell 2 is then attached to the her nearest housing intermediate shell 55 attached.
  • the circuit breaker housing is closed on all sides in row direction 3 and transverse direction 5.
  • the cover frame 27 is then pushed onto the housing shaft 24 in the mounting direction 4.
  • the cover frame 27 is locked in place with the housing shell 1 and with the end shell 2 and in this way holds all the shells 1, 2, 5 in the region of the housing shaft 24 in a mechanically stable manner.
  • the tubular rivet 34 is pushed through the aligned cylinder bores 35 and the rivet bore 36 in the row direction 3.
  • the shells 1, 2, 5 are also connected to one another in a mechanically stable manner in the region of the housing base 18.
