Definitions
- the invention relates to a low-voltage circuit breaker with a contact arrangement, a drive device for actuating the contact arrangement and with a switching shaft for transmitting a driving force from the drive device to the contact arrangement and a bearing arrangement receiving the switching shaft.
- Low-voltage circuit breakers consist of several modules, which are adapted to the different subtasks and which are connected to one another during the manufacture of the circuit breakers.
- the largest assemblies, or units, form the switching poles, that is, the contact systems consisting of fixed and movable switching contacts with their support insulation and components for connection to a drive device common to several such switching poles.
- the motion sequences provided by the drive device are transmitted to all existing contact systems via a stationary shift shaft. So far, the shift shaft has been treated constructively as part of the drive device.
- DE-PS 44 16 088 shows a lever arrangement for transmitting a driving force with a conventional structure.
- This has parallel support plates and limiting parts fastened to them, by means of which the distance of the support plates is locally reduced to a suitable distance from the guide of articulated levers.
- the lever pivot pins are slidably guided on the limiting parts.
- DE-PS 44 16 090 shows a bearing arrangement for a selector shaft of a multi-pole electrical switching device with a support structure formed from parallel walls. This has shaft bearings with half shells.
- DE-OS 42 27 352 shows a shift shaft, common to the pole units formed from the switching chambers, which is composed of shaft sections corresponding to the pole units. The pole units rest on a carrier which is dimensioned according to the greatest width of the pole units. Further representations of power transmission systems for the actuation of switch contacts are described in DE-PS 28 35 879 and DE-OS 27 26 489. All of these designs described have proven their worth for the manufacture of the individual assemblies, but they have the disadvantage that a functional test is only possible when the switch is fully assembled.
- the invention is therefore based on the object of simplifying the test and reducing the time required to correct errors. In particular, it should be checked whether the path provided by the drive complies with the appropriate closing of the contact arrangements with the required
- the bearing arrangement for the selector shaft has at least one bearing body connected to a pole assembly receiving the contact arrangement.
- the "switching pole" module becomes fully functional and can therefore be checked easily before the switch is fully assembled.
- the switching shaft is integrated into the "switching pole" assembly by using at least three bearing bodies, of which the central or central main bearing body has additional elements known per se, in particular springs for providing a retaining force, end stops, and a bump stop , and elements for the consumption of residual energy.
- This middle main bearing body is advantageously connected to a wall of the pole assembly by a combination of positive and non-positive elements.
- This can be expediently two or more plug-in feet in connection with corresponding receiving pockets in the wall of the pole assembly and centering pins with internal thread, which align the central main bearing body with the wall of the pole assembly and with the drive device.
- the selector shaft is supported by two auxiliary bearing bodies, which are expedient in the same or a similar way are attached, but which have no or only a part of the additional functions mentioned.
- the manufacture and assembly of the selector shaft can be facilitated by dividing the selector shaft into two symmetrical sections.
- the synchronous drive of the sections is ensured by a coupling bolt which passes through levers located on both sections of the selector shaft.
- the advantage of the split control shaft is that the sections are supported in two bearings.
- the type of storage is therefore statically determined and can therefore be carried out with little play. A possible misalignment is compensated for by the clutch without influencing the friction conditions.
- the main bearing body is provided with an abutment for retaining springs, which is preferably integrally formed on the main bearing body.
- the retaining springs can be attached to the main bearing body before the mounting of the bearing arrangement. The retaining springs are thus accommodated in a space-saving manner and advantageously engage the shift shaft lever in the manner of a dead center or over dead center system. This reduces the impact on the main energy storage of the switch drive.
- FIG. 1 shows schematically the arrangement of the selector shaft in the assembly "switching pole", in side view, with the contact arrangement closed.
- FIG. 2 shows schematically the arrangement according to FIG. 1, with the contact arrangement open.
- FIG. 3 schematically shows a front view of the arrangement according to FIG. 1.
- FIGS. 1 and 2 show the arrangement of the central or central main bearing body 1 with the control shaft 2.
- This middle main bearing body 1 is connected to a wall 3 of the pole assembly 4 by two plug-in feet 5 in connection with corresponding receiving pockets 6 in the wall 3 of the pole assembly 4 and centering pin 7 with an internal thread, which the main bearing body 1 faces the wall 3 of the pole Align assembly 4 and with respect to drive device 20 indicated in FIG. 1.
- the selector shaft 2 is supported near its ends by two auxiliary bearing bodies 8 and 9, which are also fastened by means of plug-in feet 10 and 11.
- the selector shaft 2 is designed in the form of two symmetrical sections 2a and 2b which are provided on their coupling sides with levers 13 and 14 which are connected to one another by a coupling bolt 12 which connects them to the two sections 2a and 2b of the control shaft 2 seated levers 13 and 14 penetrated.
- the main bearing body 1 is provided with an abutment 15 for the retaining springs 16, which is integrally formed on the main bearing body 1.
- Swiveling catch hooks 17 are arranged on the levers 13 and 14 by means of the coupling bolt 12, which hooks behind catch elements 18 during the switching-off process hook and thus prevent bouncing of the contact arrangement 19.
- a switching shaft 2 described is particularly suitable for multi-pole circuit breakers.
- the pole assemblies 4, as shown in FIGS. 1 and 2 are arranged next to one another and are actuated together by the control shaft 2.
- a coherent three-, four- or multi-pole pole assembly can also be provided.
- the advantages of the invention are that a test of the interaction between the drive, selector shaft and switch pole is made possible before the switch is finally installed. If an error is found, it is not necessary to separate the finally assembled modules again in order to replace the faulty module. This significantly reduces the time required to correct errors. This is particularly advantageous for multi-pole circuit breakers.
