Abstract

1.Interruptor magnetotérmico, caracterizado porque cuando se produce el paso de una corriente con intensidad predeterminada superior a la nominal del circuito, posee dicho interruptor una pieza bimetálica, unida a uno de los bornes a través de un soporte fijado mediante un tornillo de sujeción, que se deforma por efecto del calor producido y actúa sobre una pieza colocada en el contacto móvil de forma y manera que éste se separa del fijo mientras que por el otro extremo obliga a la manecilla de accionamiento a colocarse en posición de desconexión, a la vez que el arco que se produce es dirigido mediante unas láminas metálicas debidamente conformadas hacia una cámara de extinción, en la que existe una pluralidad de plaquitas metálicas que definen espacios intermedios de poca anchura en los que se realiza el apagado del arco eléctrico, mientras que, cuando se produce un gran aumenta de intensidad, tal y como ocurre en el caso de un cortocircuito, el interruptor actúa de forma electromagnéticadebido a que el aumento de amperio/vueltas en la bobina atrae el núcleo móvil de la misma que obliga al eje que pasa por su interior a descender, chocando contra una pieza basculante del disparo electromagnético y produciendo el desengatillado del mecanismo del contacto móvil, de igual forma a como ocurre en el comportamiento térmico del circuito, a la vez que el arco se direcciona asimismo hacia la cámara de extinción. 2.interruptor magnetotérmico, según la reivindicación 1, caracterizado porque la pieza basculante que se halla unida al contacto móvil posee dos planos contra los que hacen tope el tornillo del bimetal y el extremo del núcleo móvil de la bobina, respectivamente, hallándose dicha pieza basculante sostenida por un resorte motor y otro que rodea un eje, que la posiciona a la vez que la basculación se hace sobre oro eje paralelo a aquél, portando dicha pieza un orificio en el que se introduce un tercer eje que facilita el desconectado de las restantes fases en un montaje multifásico, así como un cuarto eje alrededor del que gira la pieza de engatillamiento que a través de una anilla obliga a moverse a la manecilla de accionamiento, la cual queda retenida en posición merced a un muelle arrollado a su eje de giro. 3.Interruptor magnetotérmico, según la reivindicación 1, caracterizado porque cuando se coloca sobre cada una de las fases de un circuito multifásico es posible conseguir el desconectado de todos los interruptores, aunque el aumento de intensidad se produzca en uno sólo de ellos, merced a la colocación de un eje que se fija a la pieza basculante unida al contacto móvil, atravesando la tapa del interruptor a través de un orificio previsto a tal efecto, obligando a moverse a una pieza aislante que por su otro extremo se halla relacionada con otro eje fijado de igual manera sobre la pieza basculante antes citada del interruptor situado contiguo al primero, con lo cual y mediante la interrelación de los distintos interruptores es posible el desconectado general de ellos al aumentar la intensidad en uno sólo. 4.Interruptor magnetotérmico, según la reivindicación 1, caracterizado porque cuando se coloca sobre cada una de las fases de un circuito multifásico, las manecillas de accionamiento se unen entre sí, gracias a prolongarse cada una de ellas por uno de sus extremos, según un saliente cilíndrico estrecho, en correspondencia con un entrante de forma igual que posee en la parte opuesta del brazo de accionamiento, de forma que introduciéndose cada uno de dichos salientes en el entrante de la manecilla contigua se logra el perfecto ensamblaje de todas ellas, sin necesidad de ningún elemento exterior ni operación de montaje adicional. 5.Interruptor magnetotérmico, según la reivindicación 1, caracterizado porque el direccionado del arco producido por la sobreintensidad queda ampliamente mejorado por el propio conformado de los contactos fijo y móvil, que permiten dirigir el arco hacia unas láminas metálicas que se hallan formando parte una de ellasdel núcleo fijado del relé y la otra en posición diagonalmente opuesta a aquélla, cuya forma se halla especialmente diseñada con el fin de lograr que el arco se introduzca en la cámara de extinción en el menor tiempo posible, evitando con ello que pueda quemarse la carcasa en razón a la alta temperatura que se produce. 6.Interruptor magnetotérmico.1. Magnetothermal switch, characterized in that when a current with a predetermined intensity greater than the nominal intensity of the circuit passes through it, said switch has a bimetallic piece, joined to one of the terminals through a support fixed by means of a clamping screw, which is deformed by the effect of the heat produced and acts on a piece placed in the mobile contact in such a way that it separates from the fixed one while at the other end it forces the actuating handle to be placed in the disconnection position, at the same time that the arc that is produced is directed by means of metal sheets duly formed towards an extinguishing chamber, in which there is a plurality of metal plates that define intermediate spaces of small width in which the electric arc is extinguished, while, when a large increase in intensity occurs, such as occurs in the case of a short circuit, the switch acts electromagnetically because the increase in ampere/turns in the coil attracts its mobile core which forces the axis that passes through its interior to descend, colliding with a tilting part of the electromagnetic trip and causing the release of the moving contact mechanism, in the same way as occurs in the thermal behavior of the circuit, while the arc is also directed towards the extinguishing chamber. 2. Magnetothermal switch according to claim 1, characterized in that the tilting piece that is connected to the moving contact has two planes against which the bimetal screw and the end of the mobile core of the coil abut, respectively, said tilting piece being held by a motor spring and another that surrounds an axis, which positions it at the same time as the tilting is done on another axis parallel to it, said piece carrying a hole in which a third axis is introduced that facilitates the disconnection of the remaining phases in a multiphase assembly, as well as a fourth axis around which the latching piece rotates, which through a ring forces the actuating handle to move, which is retained in position thanks to a spring wound around its axis of rotation. 3. Magnetothermal switch, according to claim 1, characterized in that when it is placed on each of the phases of a multiphase circuit it is possible to disconnect all the switches, even if the increase in intensity occurs in only one of them, thanks to the placement of an axis that is fixed to the tilting piece joined to the mobile contact, passing through the cover of the switch through a hole provided for this purpose, forcing an insulating piece to move which at its other end is related to another axis fixed in the same way on the aforementioned tilting piece of the switch located adjacent to the first, whereby and through the interrelation of the different switches it is possible to disconnect them generally when the intensity increases in only one. 4. Magnetothermal switch, according to claim 1, characterized in that when it is placed on each of the phases of a multiphase circuit, the actuating handles are joined together, thanks to each of them extending at one of their ends, according to a narrow cylindrical projection, in correspondence with a recess of the same shape that it has in the opposite part of the actuating arm, such that by introducing each of said projections into the recess of the adjacent handle, the perfect assembly of all of them is achieved, without the need for any external element or additional assembly operation. 5. Magnetothermal switch, according to claim 1, characterized in that the direction of the arc produced by the overcurrent is greatly improved by the very shape of the fixed and mobile contacts, which allow the arc to be directed towards some metallic sheets, one of which forms part of the fixed core of the relay and the other in a position diagonally opposite to it, whose shape is specially designed in order to ensure that the arc enters the extinguishing chamber in the shortest possible time, thereby preventing the casing from burning due to the high temperature produced. 6. Magnetothermal switch.
