Abstract

PURPOSE:To improve current limiting property with a small size by providing a magnetic substance formed in U-shape and coating the inner surface of the magnetic substance with an insulator generating a pyrolytic gas by the heat of an arc. CONSTITUTION:A magnetic substance 9 has cut-out parts 15 formed on side plates 7, which cut-out parts 15 are engaged with a driving coil 6. The magnetic flux generated around the arc 5 nearing an arc-extinguishing part 11 is collected in the magnetic substance 9, causing an interlinkage of the arc 5 with a magnetic flux passing between the side plates 7 of the magnetic substance 9, so that the arc 5 is magnetically attracted to the back plate 8 side and thus extended, whereby the arc voltage is increased. The arc 5 is pressed to an insulator 10 in the inside of the back plate 8, to which the heat of the arc 5 is transferred, and thus cooled. Further, by the use of melamine resins as the insulator 10, the heat conductivity of hydrogen gas which is a pyrolytic gas generated by heating with the arc increased, so that the arc 5 is rapidly cooled.

The drive coil 6 is formed by bending both sides of the fixed contact l of the conductive plate 12 into a U-shape. Fourth
As shown in the figure, when current flows through the fixed contact 2 and the movable contact 4 in the direction of the arrow, a middle magnetic flux is generated between the drive coils 6. When this magnetic flux Φ1 interlinks with the excessive current flowing through the movable contact 4, the movable contact 4 receives a Lorentz force in the direction of separating it from the fixed contact 2. Therefore, as shown in Fig. 2, when an excessive current flows, the movable contact 4 instantly begins to open and separate, and then the opening/closing/trip mechanism is activated to mechanically open the contact, as shown in Fig. 3. It becomes like this. In addition, the arc 5 generated by the opening of the movable contact 3 also has a magnetic flux φ1
As a result of the interlinking, Lorentz force is applied to the power supply terminal 14 side. Therefore, as shown in Figures 2 and 3,
The arc 5 extends in the direction of the electric tAXi element 14.

As shown in the figure, the magnetic flux generated around the arc 5 approaching the arc extinguishing part 1) concentrates on the magnetic body 9, and the arc 5 interlinks with the magnetic flux passing between the side plates 7 of the magnetic body 9. As shown in FIG. 3, the arc 5 is magnetically attracted to the back plate 8 side, and the arc 5

Further, the arc 5 is pressed against the insulator 10 inside the back plate 8, whereby the heat of the arc 5 is transferred and cooled. Furthermore, by using a melamine resin or the like as the insulator IO, the arc 5 is rapidly cooled because the thermal conductivity of hydrogen gas, which is a pyrolysis gas generated when heated by the arc 5, is high. Therefore, the cross-sectional area of the arc is reduced, the current density is increased, and the attractive force is increased, and the arc voltage is further increased due to the cooling effect of the arc.

The table shows that melamine resin generates more hydrogen during thermal decomposition than other resins. Therefore, when melamine resin is used for the insulator 10, the amount of hydrogen gas generated by thermal decomposition of the insulator 10 is large, so the arc 5 can be effectively cooled and extinguished more quickly. Therefore, a high arc voltage can be obtained with a simple configuration.

According to the arc extinguishing device of the present invention, since the magnetic body bypasses the magnetic flux flowing outside the drive coil, it does not link with the separated movable contactor and the arc. In addition, since the arc is attracted by the approximately U-shaped magnetic body, the attractive force is large. Furthermore, since the drive coil increases the driving force of the arc, the arc can be driven quickly. What's more, the elongated arc touches the insulator and is cooled by heat conduction, while also being heated by the arc!
