Description

La présente invention concerne un organe de liaison entre un nombre déterminé n, au moins égal à 3, de voies en parallèle V, à V" distinctes et une voie commune Vo, comprenant, pour l'établissement des 2n combinaisons distinctes de liaisons entre cette voie commune et les n voies distinctes, 2"-' moyens de liaison répartis circulairement autour de la partie centrale de l'organe dans 2n-1 positions parmi 2" possibles. Cette invention trouve une application essentielle, en tant que contacteur électrique, dans l'arrangement de systèmes de sécurité ou de reconnaissance de stations locales à partir d'une station centrale.The present invention relates to a connecting member between a determined number n, at least equal to 3, of parallel channels V, to V " distinct and a common channel V o , comprising, for the establishment of the 2n distinct combinations of connections between this common channel and the n separate channels, 2 " - 'connecting means distributed circularly around the central part of the member in 2 n-1 positions among 2" possible. This invention finds an essential application, as an electrical contactor , in the arrangement of security systems or recognition of local stations from a central station.

Le brevet des Etats-Unis d'Amérique US-A-3215790 décrit un tel organe de liaison. Selon ce document, ledit organe est composé d'un rotor et d'un stator dont les mouvements relatifs permettant l'établissement de 23 combinaisons de liaisons avec trois voies distinctes, les huit combinaisons en question étant représentées notamment sur la figure 5 du brevet. On peut cependant constater que ces combinaisons sont obtenues dans un ordre quelconque.United States patent US-A-3215790 describes such a linker. According to this document, said member is composed of a rotor and a stator whose relative movements allowing the establishment of 2 3 combinations of connections with three distinct channels, the eight combinations in question being represented in particular in FIG. 5 of the patent . However, it can be seen that these combinations are obtained in any order.

Le but de l'invention est de simplifier d'une manière générale la réalisation de tels organes de liaison.The object of the invention is to generally simplify the production of such connecting members.

L'invention concerne à cet effet un organe de liaison tel que défini dans l'introduction de la demande et caractérisé en ce que ledit organe est déplaçable pas-à-pas par permutation circulaire pour occuper successivement 2" emplacements distincts dans lesquels les 2n combinaisons distinctes de liaisons possibles entre la voie commune et les n voies en parallèle sont successivement établies par décalage circulaire de l'une de ces combinaisons à la suivante à chaque pas dudit déplacement.To this end, the invention relates to a connecting member as defined in the introduction to the application and characterized in that said member is movable step by step by circular permutation to successively occupy 2 "distinct locations in which the 2 n distinct combinations of possible connections between the common track and the n parallel tracks are successively established by circular shift from one of these combinations to the next at each step of said movement.

La structure ainsi proposée est très avantageuse par se simplicité, en particulier lorsque le commande de l'organe doit être assurée par des moyens électroniques classiques tels que les registres à décalage.The structure thus proposed is very advantageous by its simplicity, in particular when the control of the member must be ensured by conventional electronic means such as the shift registers.

Le brevet suisse CH-A-11428 décrit, certes, un commutateur rotatif à trois bras (cas où n=3) pouvant établir 23=8 combinaisons de liaisons distinctes, selon le tableau fourni dans ce document. Mais l'examen de ce tableau révèle justement que, là encore, aucune loi ni aucun ordre logique ne préside à l'emplacement des bras, et que la caractéristique de l'invention, exposée ci-dessus, est absente. Le problème résolu dans ce document est d'ailleurs distinct de celui qui est considéré ici, puisque l'enseignement dudit brevet suisse est orienté vers la réalisation d'un commutateur exempt d'efforts de cissaillement.Swiss patent CH-A-11428 describes, of course, a rotary switch with three arms (case where n = 3 ) which can establish 2 3 = 8 combinations of separate connections, according to the table provided in this document. But examination of this table rightly reveals that, again, no law or logical order presides over the location of the arms, and that the characteristic of the invention, set out above, is absent. The problem solved in this document is moreover distinct from that which is considered here, since the teaching of said Swiss patent is oriented towards the realization of a switch free of shearing efforts.

Le brevet français FR-A-596550 décrit également, pour n=2, un commutateur pouvant établir quatre liaisons selon les quatre emplacements possibles de ses bras. Mais, pour n=2, aucun problème de mise en place ne se pose, et la solution apportée par ce document est une réponse à un autre type de problème, à savoir celui de réaliser des contacts mécaniquement perfectionnés, évitant la production d'étincelles.French patent FR-A-596550 also describes, for n = 2 , a switch that can establish four connections according to the four possible locations of its arms. But, for n = 2, no installation problem arises, and the solution provided by this document is a response to another type of problem, namely that of making mechanically improved contacts, avoiding the production of sparks. .

Les particularités de l'invention apparaîtront maintenant de façon plus précise dans la description qui suit et dans les dessins annexés, donnés à titre d'exemple non limitatif et dans lesquels:

  • - la figure 1 montre un exemple de réalisation de l'organe de liaison selon l'invention, dans le cas où les liaisons à établir ou non sont électriques;
  • - la figure 2 montre la disposition des connexions électriques dans le cas de l'organe de liaison de la figure 1;
  • - la figure 3 montre, dans une variante de réalisation, la superposition du contacteur de la figure 1 et des connexions de la figure 2.
The features of the invention will now appear more precisely in the description which follows and in the appended drawings, given by way of nonlimiting example and in which:
  • - Figure 1 shows an embodiment of the connecting member according to the invention, in the case where the connections to be established or not are electrical;
  • - Figure 2 shows the arrangement of electrical connections in the case of the connecting member of Figure 1;
  • - Figure 3 shows, in an alternative embodiment, the superposition of the contactor of Figure 1 and the connections of Figure 2.

L'organe de liaison décrit en référence à ces figures est, dans le cas présent, un contacteur électrique, mais bien entendu, les liaisons à établir ou non pourraient être d'un autre type sans pour autant sortir du cadre de l'invention. L'organe représenté dans le cas où n=4 comprend donc, pour l'établissement des 24=16 combinaisons distinctes de liaisons électriques entre une connexion commune Vo et quatre connexions en parallèle V, à V distinctes, 23=8 bras de liaison B(1 ) à B(8) répartis circulairement autour de la partie centrale C de l'organe, dans huit positions choisies parmi 16 possibles.The connecting member described with reference to these figures is, in this case, an electrical contactor, but of course, the connections to be established or not could be of another type without departing from the scope of the invention. The organ represented in the case where n = 4 therefore comprises, for the establishment of the 2 4 = 16 distinct combinations of electrical connections between a common connection V o and four connections in parallel V, with distinct V, 2 3 = 8 arms connecting B (1) to B (8) distributed circularly around the central part C of the member, in eight positions chosen from among 16 possible.

Le choix de ces huit positions est effectué de la façon suivante. En supposant que les quatre connexions en parallèle V, à V4 correspondant sur le contacteur à quatre positions successives des bras de liaison, et en supposant par ailleurs que les situations de liaison électrique entre ces quatre connexions et les bras de liaison sont conventionnellement désignées par 1 et les situations d'absence de liaison électrique par 0, il faut pouvoir disposer des combinaisons suivantes:

  • (a) quatre liaisons sur quatre:
    Figure imgb0001
  • (b) trois liaisons sur quatre:
    Figure imgb0002
    Figure imgb0003
    Figure imgb0004

  • (c) deux liaisons sur quatre:

    Figure imgb0013
    Figure imgb0014
    Figure imgb0015
  • (e) aucune liaison:
    Figure imgb0016
    or on constate que ces seize combinaisons possibles sont effectivement obtenues par décalage circulaire du contacteur (considéré comme mobile en rotation par rapport aux connexions, considéres comme fixes) si ces seize combinaisons se succèdent dans l'ordre suivante (en considérant le n° qui vient de leur être affecté ci-dessus):
    Figure imgb0017
    etc.... A cet ordre correspond en effet la disposition suivante:
    Figure imgb0018
    dispositif dont on déduit, en (17), la répartition des bras de liaison B(1 ) à B(8) en faisant correspondre à 1 la présence d'un bras et à 0 l'absence de bras:
    Figure imgb0019
    La figure 1 montre le contacteur électrique à seize positions possibles sont les huit positions des bras de liaison B(1) à B(8) correspondant à cette séquence (17), tandis que la figure 2 montre la disposition des connexions Vo, V1, V2, V3, V4 dans le cas où l'on utilise le contacteur de la figure 1. Des butées de blocage mécanique en rotation F1 à F4, présentes sur le support des connexions Vo à V4, sont prévues pour immobiliser le contacteur dans l'une quelconque des seize positions qu'il doit occuper.
The choice of these eight positions is carried out as follows. Assuming that the four parallel connections V, to V 4 corresponding on the contactor to four successive positions of the link arms, and also supposing that the situations of electrical connection between these four connections and the link arms are conventionally designated by 1 and situations where there is no electrical connection by 0, the following combinations must be available:
  • (a) four out of four routes:
    Figure imgb0001
  • (b) three out of four links:
    Figure imgb0002
    Figure imgb0003
    Figure imgb0004
    Figure imgb0005
  • (c) two out of four links:
    Figure imgb0006
    Figure imgb0007
    Figure imgb0008
    Figure imgb0009
    Figure imgb0010
    Figure imgb0011
  • (d) one in four routes:
    Figure imgb0012
    Figure imgb0013
    Figure imgb0014
    Figure imgb0015
  • (e) no link:
    Figure imgb0016
    however, it can be seen that these sixteen possible combinations are actually obtained by circular offset of the contactor (considered to be movable in rotation relative to the connections, considered to be fixed) if these sixteen combinations follow one another in the following order (considering the number which comes to be assigned to them above):
    Figure imgb0017
    etc ... This order corresponds to the following provision:
    Figure imgb0018
    device from which we deduce, in (17), the distribution of the link arms B (1) to B (8) by making 1 correspond to the presence of an arm and to 0 the absence of arms:
    Figure imgb0019
    Figure 1 shows the electrical contactor with sixteen possible positions are the eight positions of the link arms B (1) to B (8) corresponding to this sequence (17), while Figure 2 shows the arrangement of the connections V o , V 1 , V 2 , V 3 , V 4 in the case where the contactor of FIG. 1 is used. Mechanical rotation locking stops F 1 to F 4 , present on the support of the connections V o to V 4 , are provided to immobilize the contactor in any one of the sixteen positions it must occupy.

Bien entendu, la présente invention n'est pas limitée à l'exemple de réalisation ci-dessus décrit et représenté à partir duquel des variantes peuvent être proposées sans pour cela sortir du cadre de l'invention. En particulier, la disposition oblique des bras sur la figure 1 est uniquement destinée à donner aux bras B(1) à B(B) de meilleures caractéristiques de flexion pour la réalisation des contacts avec les connexions Vo à V4, et cette disposition aurait pu être tout simplement radiale. Par ailleurs, la position des butées de blocage mécanique représentée sur la figure 2 n'est pas la seule qui puisse être adoptée: la figure 3, qui montre, dans une réalisation légèrement différente, la superposition du contacteur selon l'invention et du support des connexions Vo à V4, montre une autre position possible pour ces butées. Enfin, sur les figures 1 et 3, on a représenté la connexion Vo avec une longueur maximale, mais il suffit que la longueur de cette connexion soit au moins égale à la distance entre deux positions de bras sur le contacteur séparées par cinq seizièmes de tour. La longueur de la connexion Vo peut prendre n'importe quelle valeur comprise entre cette longueur minimale et la longueur maximale représentée.Of course, the present invention is not limited to the embodiment described above and shown from which variants can be proposed without departing from the scope of the invention. In particular, the oblique arrangement of the arms in FIG. 1 is only intended to give the arms B (1) to B (B) better bending characteristics for making the contacts with the connections V o to V 4 , and this arrangement could have been simply radial. Furthermore, the position of the mechanical locking stops shown in FIG. 2 is not the only one that can be adopted: FIG. 3, which shows, in a slightly different embodiment, the superposition of the contactor according to the invention and of the support connections V o to V 4 , shows another possible position for these stops. Finally, in Figures 1 and 3, the connection V o is shown with a maximum length, but it is sufficient that the length of this connection is at least equal to the distance between two arm positions on the contactor separated by five sixteenths of a turn. The length of the connection V o can take any value between this minimum length and the maximum length shown.
