Abstract
Description
La présente invention se rapporte à un dispositif de déclenchement thermique à bilame pour un appareil électrique de protection contre les surintensités, tel qu'un relais thermique ou un disjoncteur.The present invention relates to a triggering device thermal bimetal for an electrical overcurrent protection device, such as a thermal relay or a circuit breaker.
Dans un tel appareil, le rôle du dispositif de déclenchement thermique est d'assurer la protection d'une installation électrique alimentée via l'appareil contre les courants de surcharge, l'échauffement du bilame étant représentatif de la surcharge et déterminant, le déclenchement de l'appareil de protection lorsqu'il atteint un seuil prédéterminé.In such an apparatus, the role of the thermal trip device is ensure the protection of an electrical installation supplied via the device against overload currents, the temperature rise of the bimetallic strip being representative of the overload and determining, the triggering of the protective device when it reaches a threshold predetermined.
Le bilame présente d'une manière générale une première extrémité libre apte à se déformer, et une seconde extrémité fixée à une semelle de support en matériau conducteur. Le montage du bilame peut être réalisé par l'encastrement de la seconde extrémité dans un évidement de la semelle.The bimetallic strip generally has a first free end able to deform, and a second end fixed to a support sole in conductive material. The mounting of the bimetallic strip can be carried out by embedding the second end in a recess in the sole.
L'échauffement du bilame est réalisé de manière usuelle par passage du courant dans un enroulement de chauffage électriquement isolé, et en contact thermique avec le bilame, mais il peut être aussi réalisé directement par passage du courant à travers le bilame.The heating of the bimetallic strip is carried out in the usual way by passing the current in an electrically insulated heating coil, and in contact thermal with the bimetallic strip, but it can also be carried out directly by passing the running through the bimetallic strip.
S'il y a passage direct du courant à travers le bilame, sans l'utilisation d'un enroulement de chauffage, le courant provenant de la semelle chauffe immédiatement le bilame ; en cas de surcharge , la déformation de l'extrémité libre est alors rapide, ce qui engendre un temps de déclenchement notablement court.If there is a direct current flow through the bimetallic strip, without the use of a heating winding, the current coming from the soleplate heats up immediately the bimetallic strip; in the event of an overload, the deformation of the free end is then fast, which generates a remarkably short tripping time.
Ce type de dispositif permet une fabrication avantageusement économique de l'appareil de protection. Cependant, pour certaines installations électriques de type départ moteur, le déclenchement de l'appareil de protection en cas de surcharge ne doit pas être prématuré et nécessite donc un temps de réponse déterminé, ce qui n'est réalisable que par la présence de l'enroulement de chauffage.This type of device advantageously allows manufacturing protection device. However, for some installations motor starter type electrical devices, the triggering of the protective device in overload should not be premature and therefore requires response time determined, which is only achievable by the presence of the heating coil.
L'invention se propose, par suite, de foumir un dispositif de déclenchement thermique à bilame sans enroulement de chauffage pour réaliser un gain économique dans la fabrication des appareils de protection, et dont les caractéristiques permettent d'obtenir un temps de déclenchement supérieur à une valeur normalisée.The invention therefore proposes to provide a device for bimetal thermal release without heating winding to achieve a economic gain in the manufacture of protective devices, and whose characteristics allow a tripping time greater than one normalized value.
Selon l'invention le dispositif comprend un bilame électriquement conducteur et une plaquette d' épaisseur donnée, servant de support au bilame, le bilame ayant une première extrémité libre apte à se déformer et une seconde extrémité, ou pied, encastrée dans un évidement de la plaquette, caractérisé en ce que:
- le pied du bilame traverse l'évidement de façon à être en saillie en-dessous de la face inférieure de la plaquette d'une hauteur amplement supérieure à l'épaisseur de la plaquette;
- la saillie du pied présente un point de connexion électrique à une pièce conductrice de manière à constituer l'élément de chauffage direct du bilame.
- the foot of the bimetallic strip passes through the recess so as to protrude below the underside of the plate of a height that is amply greater than the thickness of the plate;
- the projection of the foot has an electrical connection point to a conductive part so as to constitute the direct heating element of the bimetallic strip.
Le point de connexion est situé à une distance déterminée de la face inférieure de la plaquette, de sorte que l'on peut déterminer, par le simple choix de cette distance, le calibrage de l'appareil de protection.The connection point is located at a determined distance from the face bottom of the plate, so that we can determine, by the simple choice of this distance, the calibration of the protective device.
D'autres caractéristiques et avantages de l'invention apparaítront mieux dans la description qui suit, en regard au dessin annexé donné à titre d'exemple.Other characteristics and advantages of the invention will appear better in the description which follows, with reference to the attached drawing given by way of example.
La figure 1 est une vue en élévation du dispositif de l'invention.Figure 1 is an elevational view of the device of the invention.
Le dispositif de déclenchement thermique, ilustré à la figure 1, est destiné à être intégré à un appareil électrique de protection, par exemple un disjoncteur-moteur, pour détecter les courants de surcharge au bout d'un temps déterminé.The thermal trip device, illustrated in Figure 1, is intended to be integrated into an electrical protection device, for example a motor circuit breaker, to detect overload currents after a determined time.
Le dispositif de déclenchement thermique comporte un bilame 10 qui
constitue directement l'élément chauffant.The thermal trip device comprises a
Le bilame 10 est fixé à une plaquette de support 20 ; la plaquette 20 est
réalisée en un matériau électriquement conducteur et est reliée par une première
extrémité 21 à une partie conductrice de sortie de courant non figurée reliée à un pôle
de puissance du disjoncteur.The
Le bilame 10 est mince, de forme générale rectangulaire allongée
s'étendant dans un plan QQ'. Il comprend une première extrémité libre 11 apte à se
déformer, et une seconde extrémité ou pied 12 destinée à être reliée électriquement à
une pièce conductrice 30 d'entrée de courant reliée à une borne de raccordement.The
La plaquette de support 20 de forme générale rectangulaire, d'épaisseur
donnée e, s'étend dans un plan PP' perpendiculaire au plan QQ'. Elle comporte au
voisinage d'une seconde extrémité 22 un évidement rectangulaire 23 qui s'étend
parallèlement à la direction longitudinale de la plaquette.The
Le bilame 10 traverse la plaquette 20 par l'évidement 23, ses deux
grandes faces latérales opposées 13 étant situées dans le plan QQ' parallèlement à
la direction longitudinale de la plaquette. La largeur de l'évidement 23 est ajustée à
l'épaisseur du bilame pour permettre l'encastrement de ce dernier.The
Le bilame présente sur l'une de ses tranches longitudinales 14 un
épaulement 15 venant en appui contre la face supérieure 20a de la plaquette 20 pour
asseoir le bilame sur la plaquette. La position de l'épaulement 15 est prévue de
manière que le pied 12 du bilame soit en saillie sur une hauteur en dessous de la
face inférieure 20b de la plaquette 20.The bimetallic strip has on one of its longitudinal sections 14 a
La largeur ℓ du pied 12 du bilame en dessous de l'épaulement 15 est au
plus égale à la largeur ℓ' de la partie supérieure 11a du bilame située au-dessus de la
plaquette.The width ℓ of the
La fixation mécanique du bilame 10 à la plaquette 20 est établie par
soudage, par exemple un soudage laser, qui peut être effectué au niveau de la face
supérieure 20a de la plaquette et/ou au niveau de sa face inférieure 20b. La soudure
favorise par ailleurs la liaison électrique entre le bilame 10 et la plaquette 20.The mechanical fixing of the
La saillie du pied 12 du bilame est reliée électriquement à la pièce
conductrice 30 par une tresse de connexion 40 ; la tresse 40 est soudée d'un côté en
un point de connexion électrique 16 du pied 12 et de l'autre côté à une extrémité 31
de la pièce 30. La tresse de connexion 40 peut aussi constituer un feuillard métallique
ou un prolongement de la pièce conductrice 30.The projection of the
Le point de connexion 16 est choisi sur la hauteur
On sait que la puissance calorique nécessaire à la déformation de
l'extrémité 11 du bilame reste sensiblement constante, il est donc nécessaire de
pouvoir faire modifier la résistance ohmique R du bilame en fonction du calibre de
l'appareil. La résistance ohmique R est d'autant plus petite que le calibre de l'appareil,
représentatif de l'intensité nominale, est grand.We know that the calorific power necessary for the deformation of
the
La résistance R peut ainsi être modifiée en fonction de la distance
Il est aussi possible pour adapter la résistance R, en particulier pour la diminuer, que le bilame comprenne une couche intermédiaire de cuivre.It is also possible to adapt the resistance R, in particular for the decrease, that the bimetallic strip comprises an intermediate layer of copper.
Enfin, la pièce conductrice 30 s'étend dans un plan perpendiculaire au
plan PP' ; elle comprend une branche montante 32 dont l'extrémité inférieure 31 est
reliée à la tresse de connexion 40, et une branche descendante 33 dont l'extrémité
supérieure coudée 34 est reliée à l'extrémité supérieure de la branche montante 32.
La branche decendante 33 présente à son extrémité inférieure 35 un prolongement
coudé 36 perpendiculaire aux branches 32, 33 et situé parallèlement au plan PP'; le
prolongement 36 est connecté électriquement à une borne de raccordement (non
représentée).Finally, the
La forme de la pièce 30 permet d'obtenir un gradient de température
suffisant entre le bilame 10 et la borne de raccordement d'entrée de courant de
manière que la température de ce dernier soit basse par rapport à celle du bilame.The shape of the
