Abstract
Description
- The invention relates to a high-voltage circuit breaker of self-blasting type according to the precharacterising part of
claim 1. - The invention is primarily intended for circuit breakers with rated operating voltages of the order of magnitude of 100-300 kV, but it may, in principle, be used also for circuit breakers for voltages both above and below this range, for example for medium-voltage circuit breakers.
- Circuit breakers of the above-mentioned kind are previously known, for example from US-A-4 658 108. In such a puffer type self-blasting circuit breaker, the reservoir for gas intended for arc extinction consists of two parts, namely, a pressure storage chamber, also referred to below as the pressure storage volume, and a compression chamber, also referred to below as the puffer volume. The two volumes are separated by a non-return valve which is closed when the pressure in the pressure storage volume is higher than in the puffer volume.
- In this kind of circuit breaker, problems may arise if the breaker after a short-circuit breaking operation performs a normal rapid reclosing and the short circuit then remains, so that the breaker immediately has to perform a renewed short-circuit breaking. During the short period between the breakings (about 300 ms), it may be difficult to have time to ventilate the pressure storage volume sufficiently, which entails a risk of this volume still containing hot gas of low density when the second short-circuit breaking is to be carried out. This may cause the deionization of the arc to become insufficient, so that the renewed breaking attempt will fail.
- In DE-C-3 843 405, it has been proposed to solve the above problem by sucking gas, during the closing of the circuit breaker, into the pressure storage volume from the region which surrounds the arcing contacts, with the aid of a special valve arranged between the pressure storage volume and the puffer volume. However, this is a less satisfactory solution since the gas in the mentioned region is still relatively hot at the time in question.
- The invention aims at providing a high-voltage circuit breaker of self-blasting type of the above-mentioned kind which exhibits an improved breaking capacity for the second opening operation in an open-close-open operation sequence.
- To achieve this aim the invention suggests a high-voltage circuit breaker of self-blasting type according to the introductory part of
claim 1, which is characterized by the features of the characterizing part ofclaim 1. - Further developments of the invention are characterized by the features of the additional claims.
- In a circuit breaker according to the invention, the blast piston of the puffer volume rests on one or more springs which will be compressed when an overpressure builds up in the compression chamber. These springs may be adapted in strength and prestress in such a way that, at a certain overpressure in the compression chamber, the blast piston will start moving and further compressing the springs. The distance the blast piston is free to travel may be limited to a predetermined value. At the end of the opening operation, when the non-return valve located between the puffer volume and the pressure storage volume opens and the overpressure in the puffer volume falls, the piston will make a return movement whereby a puff of gas is pressed into the pressure storage volume. This extra gas puff, which is thus accomplished with the aid of the movable piston, is an important addition to the gas mass in the pressure storage volume, in which the temperature is considerably reduced, thus greatly improving the breaking capacity in the second opening operation in an open-close-open operation.
- In puffer-type circuit breakers which are not provided with a pressure storage volume it is known, per se, to arrange the blast piston axially displaceable against the action of a spring (see, e.g. DE-A-2 363 171 and US-A-4 322 591). However, the resilient piston in the known design has quite a different function compared with the present invention. In the known design, the aim of the resilient piston is partly to achieve a faster pressure increase in the puffer cylinder, partly to reduce the maximum pressure in the cylinder and provide a more uniform pressure distribution for a longer period of time.
- By way of example, the invention will now be described in greater detail with reference to the accompanying drawing, the single figure of which shows, in axial section, the central part of a high-voltage circuit breaker according to the invention. The part of the figure to the left of the centre line shows the circuit breaker in the closed position, and the part of the figure to the right of the centre line shows the circuit breaker in the open position.
- The circuit breaker shown in the drawing has a gas-
tight casing 1 which at least partly consists of insulating material and which contains a fixed, plug-shaped arcing contact 2 and an axially movable sleeve-shaped arcing contact 3a. The arcing contact 3a forms part of amovable contact unit 3 which includes atubular contact rod 4 and an insulating operating rod (not shown). Themovable contact unit 3 is connected to an operating device of, for example, the design described in SE-A-9001116-4. With the aid of the operating device, the movable contact unit may be displaced between the closed position shown to the left in the figure and the open position shown to the right in the figure. - The
movable contact unit 3 supports ahollow cylinder 5 of metal, which contributes in forming apressure storage chamber 6, the volume of which is constant, and acompression chamber 7. Themovable contact unit 3 further supports an electrically insulatingblast nozzle 8 with anannular channel 9, which connects thepressure storage chamber 6 to the region where the arc is burning during an opening operation. Thehollow cylinder 5 constitutes the movable operating current contact of the circuit breaker, which cooperates with a fixed operatingcurrent contact 10. - The
pressure storage chamber 6 and thecompression chamber 7 are coaxially arranged around themovable contact rod 4 and are separated by awall 11 provided withopenings 12. These openings function as a non-return valve with the help of an adjacentannular plate 13, which is arranged axially displaceable between thewall 11 and alimiting stop 14 fixed to themovable contact rod 4. Thenon-return valve 12 to 14 allows flow only in a direction from thecompression chamber 7 to thepressure storage volume 6. - The
compression chamber 7 is delimited by apuffer cylinder 15, ablast piston 16, themovable contact rod 4 and thewall 11, which constitutes the bottom in the pressure storage chamber. Thepuffer cylinder 15 in its turn is formed by thehollow cylinder 5. - The
blast piston 16 consists of an annular plate resting on a number ofsprings 17, which support against a fixedcounter support 18. - Upon a breaking operation, the
contact rod 4 is pulled downwards with the aid of the operating device, the operatingcurrent contacts arcing contacts 2, 3a which become separated with an arc being created between them. The arc heats the gas in the arc region, which results in increased gas pressure and starts a gas flow through thechannel 9 into thepressure storage chamber 6. As a result of this flow, the pressure in thepressure storage chamber 6 increases. The arc current follows the power system frequency sine curve, and when the current value approaches the zero crossing, the pressure in the arc region starts decreasing. The contact movement has now proceeded so far that theplug contact 2 has released the nozzle outlet, where the pressure is now lower than in thepressure storage chamber 6. This gives rise to a gas flow from thepressure storage chamber 6 through thechannel 9 and thenozzle 8 to a surroundingexpansion chamber 19. The arc is cooled by this flow and is extinguished at the following current zero crossing. - During the opening operation the gas in the
compression chamber 7 is compressed because the distance between thewall 11 and theblast piston 16 then decreases. This causes an increase of pressure in the compression chamber which in turn moves the blast piston downwards against the resistance of thesprings 17. Since in the embodiment shown the springs are prestressed by means of arod 20, which is secured to theblast piston 16 and bears with an end stop 20a against thecounter support 18, the downward movement of theblast piston 16 does not start until the overpressure in the compression chamber exceeds a certain level. This prestressing of the springs ensures that also in cases of small operating currents to be broken by the circuit breaker a sufficient increase of pressure will occur in the compression chamber. Asecond end stop 21 may be provided that limits the distance theblast piston 16 can travel. - Towards the end of the opening operation, the pressure in the
pressure storage chamber 6 is decreased, as described above, and thenon-return valve 13 opens. This leads to a reduction of the pressure in thecompression chamber 7, which causes theblast piston 16 to make a return movement and an extra puff of gas to be pressed into thepressure storage chamber 6, where hot gas of low density in this way is replaced by cold gas of high density. This additional gas entails a considerable reduction of the temperature in thepressure storage chamber 6, the breaking capacity of an immediately following opening operation thus being greatly improved. - When breaking relatively small currents, the pressure increase in the
pressure storage chamber 6, generated by the arc, is insufficient to achieve an effective flow of arc extinguishing gas. In such cases the arc extinction is performed with the aid of thecompression chamber 7, in which a pressure build-up takes place during the opening operation because of the downward movement of thewall 11. The pressure in thecompression chamber 7 then becomes higher than in thepressure storage chamber 6, which causes thenon-return valve 13 to open and cold arc-extinguishing gas to flow from thecompression chamber 7 via thepressure storage chamber 6 and thechannel 9 to theblast nozzle 8, where the arc is cooled and extinguished. - The invention is not limited to the embodiment shown, but several variants are feasible within the scope of the claims. For example, the
blast piston 16 may be provided with an overpressure valve for discharge of gas from thecompression chamber 7 to theexpansion chamber 19 if the pressure in the compression chamber should exceed a certain level. In addition, the blast piston may be provided with a non-return valve to refill the compression chamber with gas from the expansion chamber upon closing of the circuit breaker. - Further, the invention is not limited to be used in connection with circuit breakers in which the
breaker casing 1 is made of electrically insulating material, but the invention may also be used with metal-enclosed gas insulated circuit breakers.
