Definitions
- the invention relates to an undervoltage release for electrical low-voltage circuit breakers.
- Such an undervoltage release is, for example, from EP 0 620 580 B1 known. It comprises one that can be actuated by an electromagnet plunger-shaped magnet armature, which by applying a predetermined control voltage against the pressure of a first spring in a tightened position (Switch-on position of the undervoltage release) can be moved.
- the pestle-shaped Magnetic armature acts on a pawl designed as a bell crank, the one in the attracted position of the magnet armature acted on the second spring and connected to a trigger slide Release lever holds. If the control voltage falls below a specified value off, the plunger-shaped magnet armature becomes pressurized by the first spring shifted outwards and pivots the pawl, which is the release lever releases.
- the invention has for its object to provide an undervoltage release, which can also be moved towards the switch-on position if there is no control voltage on the electromagnet. Triggering the Circuit breaker by the undervoltage release should be during the switch-on process only be possible if an additional mechanical release of the undervoltage release takes place, the time of release largely can be selected as required.
- the invention is essentially based on the idea that the undervoltage release one pivoted by a third spring Control lever includes, which is designed as a release lock.
- the control lever presses the position of the undervoltage release the pawl that holds the release lever, the spring forces and the the interlocking surfaces of the interacting surfaces Lever arms are selected such that the undervoltage release is triggered not possible.
- the control lever is pivoted and thus the release lock is released, the pawl and the Release lever only interlocked when on the electromagnet there is a sufficiently large control voltage. Otherwise there is a new one Trip of the circuit breaker.
- control lever is such trained that he when the undervoltage release is used as intended engages in a switching gate of the circuit breaker and when turning on the circuit breaker is pivoted such that a first Lever arm of the control lever releases a second lever arm of the pawl, before the circuit breaker is in its "ON" switch position.
- the trigger lever a stop on its side facing away from the trigger slide for a clamping cam arranged on the switching gate of the circuit breaker, on so that when the shifting gate is pivoted into the shift position "OFF" of the safety switch of the clamping cams pivots the release lever until until it locks with the pawl.
- the circuit breaker comprises a switching link provided with a lever 2 3, by means of which the circuit breaker is in its "OFF" switch position (Fig. 1) in its switching position “ON” (Fig. 2) is pivotable.
- the undervoltage release 1 has a plunger-shaped actuatable by an electromagnet 4 Magnetic armature 5, which is designed as a compression spring first spring 6 is acted upon.
- the magnet armature 5 acts via spring-loaded lever-shaped transmission members 7, 8 on a trigger slide 9, which interacts with a trigger shaft of the circuit breaker, not shown, so the trigger wave is triggering a not shown Switch lock and opening of the switch lock connected, also causes not shown contacts.
- the lever-shaped transmission links it is a trained as a lever pivotable pawl 7, the first lever arm 10 with the plunger-shaped Magnetic armature 5 and the second lever arm 11 connected to a push rod 12 is, as well as a trigger lever actuating the trigger slide 9 8, a recess 14 on its side facing the push rod 12 (Fig. 2), in which the push rod 12 in the switched-on position of the undervoltage release 1 engages (Fig. 1).
- the trigger lever 8 is by a acted as a tension spring formed second spring 15.
- the undervoltage release 1 further comprises an as Deflection lever trained pivotable control lever 16, which by a Compression spring designed third spring 17 is acted upon.
- the first lever arm 18 of the control lever 16 and the third spring 17 are designed such that in the starting position of the control lever 16 shown in FIG the circuit breaker is in its off position and the undervoltage release are in its on position, the first lever arm 18 presses against the push rod 12 of the pawl 7 and thus the pawl 7 and the release lever 8 remain in their latching position, if there is no control voltage on the electromagnet 4.
- the control voltage applied to the electromagnet 4 is too low (e.g. because there is a short circuit in the corresponding network) after release of the push rod 12 by the control lever 16 of the release lever 8 suddenly due to the tensile force of the second spring 15 panned.
- the trigger lever 8 moves the trigger slide 9 (Fig. 2) so that this is no longer on the trigger shaft of the circuit breaker acts and causes the circuit breaker to empty.
- lever 2 of the circuit breaker pivoted to switch position 0. It presses on the shift gate 3 arranged cam 20 against a stop 21 of the release lever 8 and pivots this against the pressure of the tension spring 15.
- the second lever arm 19 of the control lever 16 is released and the first lever arm 18 presses on the push rod 12 with the force of the spring 17, that rolls on the trigger lever 8.
- the trigger lever 8 is pivoted as long as until the push rod 12 into the recess 14 of the release lever 8 intervenes.
- the pawl 7 is pivoted and the magnet armature 5 is pressed into its switched-on position by the first lever arm 10.
- the control lever 16 again in its Starting position is (Fig. 1), his first lever arm 10 secures the now latching position of pawl 7 and release lever 8 reached.
- the pawl and to form the release lever as a double lever the two of which are parallel sub-lever arranged to each other via at least one bow-shaped Connecting part are connected to each other and each of the partial lever different Functions can be assigned. So the first lever can only to control the trigger slide and the second lever only for latching be used with the pawl, the tension spring 15 on the bow-shaped connecting part acts between the two levers.
- the tension spring 15 on the bow-shaped connecting part acts between the two levers.
- Tension springs act on the release lever.
- the pawl also consists of two partial levers arranged parallel to each other exists, is advantageously in the area of the first lever arm arranged first connecting part, which in a corresponding recess engages the plunger-shaped magnet armature.
- the push rod can then be provided as a second connecting part be that when the release lever is latched into the recess of the corresponding Part of the trigger lever engages.
- a compression spring can also be used as the third spring instead of a tension spring used when the corresponding spring on the trigger slide facing side is arranged.
- the pawl be with a push rod is provided which in the recess 14 of the release lever 8 engages to latch the two levers, but the pawl can their end facing the release lever is itself designed accordingly or be provided with a bolt-shaped part.
