Definitions
- the present invention generally relates to gripper circuit breakers, that is to say circuit breakers comprising, in a body, a member, called gripper, which has a recess suitable for housing a cartridge. fuse, and which is rotatably mounted in said body between a closed position, for which said fuse cartridge establishes an electrical connection between two contacts interposed between two connection terminals, and an extraction position, for which, this electrical connection being interrupted , said housing opens to the outside, for fitting or removing such a cartridge.
- gripper circuit breakers which further comprise, in their body, a sectioning switch interposed between two other connection terminals, said sectioning switch being normally open and being capable of being ordered to close. by the gripper when said gripper is itself in the closed position.
- This intermediate member is carried by the body, while being movably mounted thereon.
- circuit-breaker In general, it is advantageous to equip the circuit-breaker with a gripper with means, commonly called indicators of the presence of a fusible cartridge, capable of signaling the possible absence of such a cartridge when the gripper is in the closed position. .
- the present invention generally relates to a provision which, on the contrary, and advantageously very simple, makes it possible to take advantage of the presence of the isolating switch to perform the function of indicating the presence of a fuse cartridge wanted.
- the present invention relates to a gripper circuit breaker, of the type comprising, in a body, on the one hand, a member, called gripper, which has a recess specific to the housing of a fuse cartridge, and which is rotatably mounted in said body between a closed position, for which said cartridge establishes an electrical connection between two contacts interposed between two connection terminals, and an extraction position, for which said housing opens out of said body, for fitting or removing such a cartridge, and, on the other hand, a sectioning switch interposed between two other connection terminals, said sectioning switch being normally open and being capable of being closed by the gripper when said gripper is itself in the closed position,
- this gripper circuit breaker being characterized in that, for action on the disconnection switch, the gripper eur carries an actuating element, which is movably mounted on said gripper between a deployed position, for which, in the presence of a fusible cartridge, it is effectively able to control the isolation switch in closing, and a retracted position, for
- the actuating element that thus carries according to the invention the gripper is a bent lever, which is pivotally mounted on said gripper, and which has two arms, namely a first arm capable of penetrating into the recess that presents said gripper for housing a fuse cartridge, and a second arm capable of controlling the closing of the associated disconnecting switch, either directly or indirectly, by means of an intermediate member.
- any signaling means is mounted in series on the circuit controlled by this isolation switch.
- It may for example be the coil of a contactor capable of controlling a signaling, indicator or other device.
- such a contact can, for example, be implemented to prohibit single-phase operation of the installation concerned when a fuse cartridge has been accidentally omitted in any of the circuit breakers which control the phases.
- a body 10 or casing usually consisting of two shells, which are suitably facing one another along a common median plane and suitably subject to each other thus faced, and one of which was assumed to be removed in the figures, is mounted a rotary, or more precisely tilting, a member 11, said gripper, which comprises for this purpose, laterally, pins 12 pivotally engaged in said shells, and which has a recess 13 suitable for housing a fuse cartridge 14.
- a handle 15 is integral with this gripper, which, at the disposal of the user, is suitable for allowing it to be maneuvered, and which, for this purpose, projects out of the body 10, by means of an opening 16 which presents this on the front; under the control of this lever 15, the gripper 11 is rotatable in the body 10 between an extreme closed position, for which, as shown in Figure 6, the fuse cartridge 14, when present, establishes an electrical connection between two contacts 17A, 17B interposed between two connection terminals 18A, 18B, and an extraction position for which, as shown in FIG. 1, the recess 13 presented by such a gripper 11 for housing a fuse cartridge 14 opens out through the opening 16 of the body 10, for fitting or removing such a fuse cartridge 14 in such a recess 13.
- the contacts 17A, 17B are each generally in the form of a cradle, each of these contacts 17A, 17B being formed, as shown diagrammatically in broken lines in FIG. 2 for the contact 17A , by two elastically deformable metal contact blades 20, which are arranged generally parallel to one another in the body 10.
- the gripper 11 scans the gap between the blades 20 constituting each of the contacts 17A, 17B, so that, when a fusible cartridge 14 is present in its recess 13, this fuse cartridge 14 comes, by its end caps 21A, 21B, to be inserted between the blades 20 constituting the corresponding contacts 17A, 17B, by elastic spacing of these blades.
- connection terminals 24A, 24B are simply formed by the ends of two contact blades 25A, 25B, which, embedded in the body 10 at their said ends, themselves form the disconnection switch 23 at their other ends.
- This disconnection switch 23 is normally open, and it can be ordered to close by the gripper 11 when the latter is itself in the closed position.
- an intermediate member 25 is provided for this purpose, which, disposed between the gripper 11 and the isolating switch 23, is carried by the body 10 and is mounted movable therein.
- this intermediate member 25 is constituted by a bent lever, which is pivotally mounted by its elbow in the body 10 and for this purpose carries laterally pins 26 pivotally engaged in the shells constituting the latter, and which has two arms, each respectively arranged on either side of its elbow, namely an arm 27, on which the gripper 11 is capable of acting when it is in the closed position, and an arm 28, by which it is itself capable of acting on the isolating switch 23 to control it in the closed position.
- the body 10 has a sole 29, suitable for being subject to any support rail, for example by means of a lock 30 mounted movably against a return spring 31.
- the gripper 11 for action on the disconnection switch 23, the gripper 11 carries an actuating element 33, which is movably mounted on said gripper 11, between a deployed position, for which, in the presence of a fuse cartridge 14, and as shown in FIG. 6, it is effectively capable of controlling the closing switch 23 to close, according to the arrangements detailed below, and a retracted position, for which, in the absence of such a fuse cartridge 14, and as shown in FIG. 4, it is incapable of controlling said closing switch 23 to close.
- the actuating element 33 thus carried by the gripper 11 forms a bent lever, which, by its elbow, is mounted freely pivoting, frictionally, on the gripper 11, and which has two arms 34 , 35 each extending respectively on either side of its elbow, namely a first arm 34 capable of penetrating into the recess 13 presented by the gripper 11 for housing a fuse cartridge 14, and a second arm 35 capable of controlling the closing switch 23 *
- the cutting element 33 constitutes, for the gripper 11, a "nose" disposed in a region of the latter, the path of which sweeps the gap between the blades 20 constituting the contact 17A , which is the one intended to cooperate with the base 21A immediately accessible from the fuse cartridge 14 when the gripper 11 is in the extraction position.
- the region in question of the gripper 11 is therefore formed by that of the ends of the edge of the recess 13 furthest from the lever 15 which is closest to the opening 16 of the body 10 when the gripper 11 is in the position of extraction.
- the gripper 11 has, transversely, at the end in question, a shoulder 36, on the median zone from which protrudes an ear 37, and the lever constituting the actuating element 33 overall forms a yoke 38 by which it is engaged on this lug 37, a pivot axis 39 transversely passing through said yoke and said lug.
- Each of the arms 34, 35 of this lever therefore consists of two parallel arm elements, each arranged respectively on either side of the lug 37 on which they are articulated.
- the shoulder 36 of the gripper 11 is able to define at least one of the deployed or retracted positions of the actuating element 33, and, in practice, by pressing the one or the other of the arms of the lever constituting this actuating element 33, it is able, in the embodiment shown, to define one and the other of the deployed and retracted positions thereof.
- the arm 34 carries, in the embodiment shown, a rounded boss 41.
- the actuating element 33 has, transversely, a width L1 slightly greater than that L2 of the gap between the blades 20 constituting the contact 17A when these are at rest, figure 2.
- the arm 34 of the actuating element 33 penetrates widely into the recess 13 of the gripper 11, until carried by its boss 41 against the shoulder 36 thereof .
- the arm 35 of the operating element ment 33 then occupies a position which is sufficiently obliterated so as not to interfere with the auxiliary member 25, as shown in FIG. 4.
- the gripper 11 When, in a reverse tilting movement from that identified by the arrow F1 in FIG. 1, the gripper 11 is controlled by tilting from its closed position to its extraction position, the actuating element 33 which it door is, by an opposite effect to the previous one, brought back into the deployed position when passing between the blades 20 constituting the contact 17A, and maintained in this deployed position by friction.
- the actuating element 33 comes to carry by its arm 35 on the arm 27 of the intermediate member 25 and thus cause the latter to tilt.
- This intermediate member 25 being disposed above the blade 25A of the sectioning switch 23 constituting the movable contact blade thereof, it causes, by its arm 28, an elastic deformation of this blade 25A of a nature to come bring it to bear on the associated blade 24B.
- such a contactor can be used to prohibit single-phase operation.
- the fact that, on returning from the gripper 11 in the extraction position, the actuating element 33 carried by the latter systematically returns, as described above, in the retracted position, when no fuse cartridge 14 is present in the recess 13 of the gripper 11, is particularly advantageous, since said recess 13 is then directly accessible and no particular action is thus to be exerted on the actuating element 33 in order to be able to install a fuse cartridge therein 14.
- the actuating element carried according to the invention by the latter could be slidably mounted on such a gripper.
- such a disconnection switch may include contact grains, in silver or other, and / or comprise a reinforcement constituted by a spring blade doubling its movable contact blade over a part of its length and embedded with it in the body of the circuit breaker.
- this movable contact blade could be free, between two fixed blades, embedded or not, to be connected.
- the field of application of the invention is not limited to the case where the gripper 11 is able to act on a sectioning switch by means of an intermediate member.
- any intermediate member can be eliminated.
- it can also be, for example, a sliding mounted drawer.
