- FIG. 2 is a conceptual diagram for explaining the magnetic characteristics of the electrode 1 in the switching device 100 according to the first embodiment when the electrodes are closed.
- the switching device 100 of this embodiment has a facing cover 20 made of a ferromagnetic material disposed on each of the magnet surfaces 10S that face each other between the electrodes 1.
- a side cover 21 made of aluminum, stainless steel, or the like as a first material having a lower relative magnetic permeability than the facing cover 20 is disposed adjacent to the magnet side surface of the magnet 10.
- the inventors of the present application have repeatedly analyzed the magnetic properties of the opening and closing device 100 configured in this way, and have discovered that the magnetic attraction force of the magnet 10 between the electrodes 1 is large. This is thought to be because in the opening and closing device 100 of this embodiment, a magnetic circuit is not formed by the magnetic flux M2 passing through the inside of the side cover 21 of the magnet 10 as shown in Figure 2, and as a result, the magnetic flux density of the magnetic flux M1 having a component parallel to the axial direction X between the electrodes 1 is large.
- the arc current flowing between the electrodes 1 bulges outward in the radial direction Y. That is, the arc current flows at an angle of a certain angle or more with respect to the magnetic flux M1 having an axial component X. Therefore, when the magnetic flux density of the magnetic flux M1 having the axial component X between the electrodes 1 is increased in this way, the radial and circumferential Lorentz forces acting on the arc current also increase.
- the inventors of the present application have discovered that this makes it possible to quickly rotate the arc generated between the electrodes 1 on the outer periphery of the electrodes 1 in the radial direction Y, thereby extinguishing the arc.
- the opening and closing device 100 of this embodiment has a configuration that can supply the strong magnetic field required for extinguishing the arc to the arc as soon as the pair of electrodes 1 are separated.
- the inventors discovered that the adhesion of magnetic foreign matter generated by the arc to the facing cover 20 is suppressed. This is thought to be because, as described above, the Lorentz force in the radial outward direction Y increases, causing the arc current to move quickly from above the facing cover 20 to the outer periphery of the electrode 1 on the outside in the radial direction Y. In this way, unevenness caused by foreign matter is prevented from adhering to the surface of the electrode 1, ensuring a reliable state of contact between the electrodes 1 and suppressing demagnetization and damage to the magnet 10 caused by the arc.

- the length W1 in the radial direction Y of the facing cover 20 is configured to be approximately 5% to 12% smaller than the length W2 in the radial direction Y of the magnet 10.

- a configuration in which magnet 10 is fixed to the bottom surfaces of accommodation holes HA and HB with an adhesive or the like may be considered.
- the side cover 21 does not need to be provided. In this case, the electrode 1 itself becomes the first material that is arranged on the side of the magnet 10.
- the length of the side cover 21 in the axial direction X is shown to be a length that covers the entire side surface of the magnet 10, but is not limited to this. Even if the side cover 21 is shorter than the length of the axial direction X of the magnet 10, as long as it covers at least a part of the electrode surfaces SA and SB of the side surface of the magnet 10, the above-mentioned effect is achieved. Furthermore, the side cover 21 does not need to be attached around the entire circumference of the side of the magnet 10, and the same effect can be achieved by attaching it to only a portion of the circumference of the side of the magnet 10.
- a switching device including a pair of electrodes arranged with their electrode surfaces facing each other in a first direction and movable toward and away from each other in the first direction, Each of the electrodes has a receiving hole recessed from the electrode surface, A magnet is accommodated in the accommodation hole of each of the electrodes so that the electrodes have opposing polarities that attract each other due to magnetic force; A ferromagnetic body is disposed on each of the magnets housed in each of the electrodes on a surface of the magnet that faces the electrodes, the magnet surface being covered with the ferromagnetic body, and a first substance having a relative permeability lower than that of the ferromagnetic body is disposed adjacent to a magnet side surface of each of the magnets along the first direction. It is something.
- a ferromagnetic material is disposed on the surface of the magnets provided on each electrode, and a first material with a lower relative magnetic permeability than the ferromagnetic material is disposed on the side of the magnet.
- the magnetic flux density with the axial component X between the electrodes is increased, so that the arc can be quickly extinguished. This prevents the magnetic force of the magnet from decreasing due to the arc, ensures a stable magnetic attraction force, and stabilizes the current interruption performance. It also has the effect of mitigating the electric field and protecting the electrodes from damage caused by the arc.
- the length of the ferromagnetic body in the direction perpendicular to the first direction is configured to be smaller by a set dimension than the length of the magnet in the direction perpendicular to the first direction.
- the length of the ferromagnetic material in a direction perpendicular to the first direction is configured to be greater than the length of the ferromagnetic material in the first direction.
- the magnetic flux density between the electrodes with a component parallel to the X-axis can be increased.
- FIG. 4 is a cross-sectional view showing a schematic configuration of a switching device 200 according to the second embodiment.
- the facing covers 20 provided on each electrode 1 are each formed with a recess 20G recessed in the axial direction X.
- the contact area between the facing covers 20 is reduced when the electrode 1 is closed, so that the magnetic flux density passing through the facing covers 20 can be increased, and the magnetic attraction force of the magnet 10 between the electrodes 1 can be increased. This makes it possible to miniaturize the magnet.
- the contact area between the facing covers 20 can be reduced.

Abstract
Description
電流遮断性能を向上させる技術としては、早切り方式と磁気駆動方式が知られている。早切り方式は、電極の片側に速動機構を備え、電極の開離速度を上昇させることにより、電極の接点の損傷が生じない時間内で消弧に必要な長さにまでアークを引き伸ばして遮断性能を得る方式である。また、磁気駆動方式は、開閉装置内に磁石を設置することでアークを磁気駆動して遮断性能を得る方式である。このような早切り方式と磁気駆動方式とを備えた、以下のような構成の開閉装置が開示されている。
本願は、上記のような課題を解決するための技術を開示するものであり、アークの遮断性能が確保されつつ、低コストな開閉装置を提供することを目的とする。
第1方向に各電極表面を対向させて配置され、前記第1方向に互いに接離可能な一対の電極を備えた開閉装置であって、
各前記電極は、前記電極表面から窪む収容孔が形成され、
前記電極間で磁力により互いに引き合う極性が対向するように、各前記電極の前記収容孔に磁石がそれぞれ収容され、
各前記電極にそれぞれ収容された前記磁石の、前記電極間で対向する各々の磁石表面に、該磁石表面を覆う強磁性体がそれぞれ配設されると共に、各前記磁石の前記第1方向に沿う磁石側面に隣接して、前記強磁性体の比透磁率よりも低い比透磁率を有する第1物質がそれぞれ配設される、
ものである。
本実施の形態の開閉装置は、配電設備、車両用機器等に用いられるガス絶縁開閉装置に備えられ、異常発生時などにおいて電流を遮断するものである。
図1は、実施の形態1による開閉装置100の概略構成を示す断面図である。
図1に示すように、開閉装置100は、互いに接離可能な一対の電極としての第1電極1Aと第2電極1Bとを備える。これら第1電極1A、第2電極1Bは、円柱形状であり、中空筒形状の第1端子2A、第2端子2Bの内側にそれぞれ収容されている。
図1では、第1電極1Aと第2電極1Bとが開離した開極時を示している。
磁石10は、軸方向Xに沿うその磁石側面に側面カバー21が取り付けられており、この側面カバー21によって収容孔HA、HBの内周面に固定されている。
また、軸方向Xに対向する、第1電極1Aの磁石10の磁石表面10Sと、第2電極1Bの磁石10の磁石表面10Sには、これらの磁石表面10Sを覆う対面カバー20がそれぞれ配設されている。
駆動装置により第1電極1Aが、図1に示す矢印D方向である軸方向一方X1側に移動されて第2電極1Bに接触すると、第1端子2Aおよび第2端子2Bを介した通電経路が形成されて、電力が伝送される。
また、第1端子2Aの内周面には固定ストッパー6が取り付けられている。第1電極1Aが軸方向Xに移動した際には、この固定ストッパー6の径方向Yの内側の端面6INが第1電極1Aの外周面に摺接する。固定ストッパー6は第1端子2Aに固定されているため、第1電極1Aが軸方向Xに移動した場合でもその軸方向Xの位置は変化しない。
移動ストッパー7と固定ストッパー6との間にはバネ8が設置されており、第1電極1Aの軸方向X側の移動に応じて、バネ8が伸縮される構造となっている。
第1電極1Aと第2電極1Bとを接触させて閉極するには、前述のように、駆動装置により第2電極1Bを矢印D方向である軸方向一方X1側に移動させ、第1電極1Aと接触させて導通させる。この時、第1電極1Aと第2電極1Bとにそれぞれ設けられた磁石10間の磁気吸着力により第1電極1Aと第2電極1Bとの接触が保持される。
図2は、実施の形態1による開閉装置100における電極1の閉極時における磁気特性を説明するための概念図である。
本実施の形態の開閉装置100は、上記のように電極1間で対向する各々の磁石表面10Sにおいて、強磁性体で構成される対面カバー20をそれぞれ配設している。更に、磁石10の磁石側面に隣接して、対面カバー20よりも比透磁率が低い第1物質としてのアルミ、ステンレス等により構成される側面カバー21を配設している。
図3は、実施の形態1による開閉装置100の他の構成例を示す一部拡大断面図である。
図3に示すように、対面カバー20の軸方向Xに垂直な方向である径方向Yの長さW1は、磁石10の径方向Yの長さW2よりも、設定された寸法分小さく構成されている。本実施の形態では、対面カバー20の径方向Yの長さW1は、磁石10の径方向Yの長さW2よりも5%~12%程度小さく構成されている。このような寸法関係とすることで、電極1間におけるX軸に平行な成分を持つ磁束M1の磁束密度をより大きくできる。
第1物質として気体を磁石10の側面側に配する場合は、磁石10と収容孔HA、HBの内周面との間に空隙が設けられるように構成すればよい。この場合、例えば、収容孔HA、HBの底面において磁石10を接着剤などにより固定する等の構成が考えられる。
また、側面カバー21は、磁石10の側面の全周に渡って取り付ける必要は無く、磁石10の側面の周面の一部に取り付けることでも同様の効果を奏する。
第1方向に各電極表面を対向させて配置され、前記第1方向に互いに接離可能な一対の電極を備えた開閉装置であって、
各前記電極は、前記電極表面から窪む収容孔が形成され、
前記電極間で磁力により互いに引き合う極性が対向するように、各前記電極の前記収容孔に磁石がそれぞれ収容され、
各前記電極にそれぞれ収容された前記磁石の、前記電極間で対向する各々の磁石表面に、該磁石表面を覆う強磁性体がそれぞれ配設されると共に、各前記磁石の前記第1方向に沿う磁石側面に隣接して、前記強磁性体の比透磁率よりも低い比透磁率を有する第1物質がそれぞれ配設される、
ものである。
また、電極間における軸方向Xの成分を持つ磁束密度が大きくなるため、発生したアークを素早く消弧できる。これにより、アークによる磁石の磁力低下が抑止して安定した磁気吸着力を確保できると共に、電流遮断性能の安定化を図ることができる。また、電界緩和、アークによる損傷から電極を守る効果も得られる。
前記強磁性体の前記第1方向に垂直な方向の長さは、前記磁石の前記第1方向に垂直な方向の長さよりも、設定された寸法分小さく構成されるものである。
また、上記のように構成された本実施の形態の開閉装置においては、
前記強磁性体の前記第1方向に垂直な方向の長さは、前記強磁性体の前記第1方向の長さよりも大きく構成されるものである。
以下、本願の実施の形態2を、上記実施の形態1と異なる箇所を中心に図を用いて説明する。上記実施の形態1と同様の部分は同一符号を付して説明を省略する。
図4は、実施の形態2による開閉装置200の概略構成を示す断面図である。
図4に示すように、各電極1に設けられた対面カバー20には、軸方向Xに窪む凹部20Gがそれぞれ形成されている。このような凹部20Gを設けることで、電極1の閉路時において対面カバー20同士の接触面積が減少するため、対面カバー20を通過する磁束密度を大きくし、電極1間における磁石10の磁気吸着力を増大できる。こうして磁石の小形化が可能になる。
また、対面カバー20同士の接触面積は、磁気飽和を考慮し、調整されている。
即ち、対面カバー20の凹部20Gの軸方向Xの深さW4を、対面カバー20のX軸に垂直な方向である径方向Yの長さW1よりも小さく構成する。
各前記電極にそれぞれ配設された前記強磁性体の少なくとも一方は、前記電極間で対向する各々の表面から窪む凹部が形成される、
ものである。
また、上記のように構成された本実施の形態の開閉装置においては、
前記強磁性体の前記凹部の前記第1方向の深さは、前記強磁性体の前記第1方向に垂直な方向の長さよりも小さく構成される、
ものである。
これにより磁石の磁気吸着力を更に大きくできるため、磁石を小形化でき、軽量化、低コスト化が可能となる。
以下、本願の実施の形態3を、上記実施の形態1と異なる箇所を中心に図を用いて説明する。上記実施の形態1と同様の部分は同一符号を付して説明を省略する。
図5は、実施の形態3による開閉装置300の概略構成を示す断面図である。
図6は、実施の形態3による開閉装置300における電流経路を示す概念図である。
電極1を開極した際に、アークの点弧箇所が、電極1の電極表面SA、SB間ではなく、側面カバー21間であった場合、磁石10→対面カバー20→電極1の経路で電流が流れる場合がある。この場合、電流により磁石10が減磁し、磁気吸着力が低下する。しかしながらこのように絶縁テープ22による絶縁層を磁石10の周りに設けることで、図6に示すように、磁石10を避けた経路で電流iが流れるようになる。
側面カバー21の外側と収容孔HA、HBの内壁との間に絶縁テープ22を設けた場合においても、電極1側から磁石10側に電流が流れることを防止できるため、磁石の減磁を防止する効果が得られる。
前記磁石と前記収容孔の内壁との間に、絶縁体が配設される、
ものである。
これにより、電流により磁石が減磁し、磁気吸着力が低下することを抑制できるため、電極間における安定的な磁気吸着力を確保できる。
従って、例示されていない無数の変形例が、本願に開示される技術の範囲内において想定される。例えば、少なくとも1つの構成要素を変形する場合、追加する場合または省略する場合、さらには、少なくとも1つの構成要素を抽出し、他の実施の形態の構成要素と組み合わせる場合が含まれるものとする。
