Definitions
- the present invention relates to a temperature dependent Switch with a bimetal rear derailleur, which is in a housing with a first housing part made of insulating material and a Second housing part is arranged, the bimetal rear derailleur with a first led out of the one housing part Electrode is connected and cooperates with a second electrode, which is provided on the inside of the other housing part.
- Such a switch is known from WO 92/20086.
- the known switch has a two-part housing Insulation material on the opposite ends one stripped wire each. Inside the case a cavity is provided, at the bottom of which is a wire is freely accessible from above.
- a block provided, on the top of which the second wire ends, so that the two wire ends have a height difference from each other exhibit.
- a bimetal switch tongue attached that a movable at its free end Contact that cooperates with the end of the first wire. Depending on its temperature, the bimetal shift tongue brings the movable contact in contact with the wire end or lifts it from it.
- the lid of the two-part housing is hinge-like on the Lower part fastened and should be ultrasonically with the lower part be welded, creating a tight seal compared to the Environment is reached.
- the known switch has the advantage that it has small dimensions has and because of the insulating housing a low susceptibility against leakage currents and is not very pressure stable. Furthermore, the air gaps inside the housing are sufficient large so that the required insulation distance is achieved.
- the known switch Since the known switch is connected with strands, it can be Process well, as the strands are on opposite sides This switch is the ends of the housing not well suited for automatic assembly because of this as a rule, strands running parallel to one another are required will.
- the well-known switch comes with a whole host of others Disadvantages connected to which, above all, the power supply over the bimetal switch tongue counts.
- the electricity self-heating of the Bimetal switch tongue which is even desirable here, affects namely the switching behavior such that the by Design of the bimetallic switching tongue specified switching temperature can change depending on the current.
- the properties the bimetal switch tongue by welding it onto the end of the second wire unpredictably affected.
- the known switch can therefore only conditionally be used for monitoring the temperature of a device to be protected, because its switching temperature changes due to the assembly work can change unpredictably and on the other hand by the amount of the flowing current is influenced.
- the known switch has only a low level of contact reliability on because between the bare wire end and the movable contact no geometrically reproducible contact conditions prevalence.
- the contact area depends in particular on the type and extent of the curvature of the Bimetal switch tongue, which in turn is due to the mechanical Loads during welding and the respective welding point is influenced even in a non-reproducible way. Further a special copper wire is required in order for a To provide resistance to abrasion.
- Another disadvantage of the known switch is that that the housing is welded with ultrasound.
- the inventors the present application have recognized that the Bimetal switch tongue in the known switch through the use of ultrasound in an unpredictable way regarding their Switching behavior changes.
- Another temperature-dependent switch which is also very has small dimensions, is known from DE-AS-2 121 802.
- This switch has a two-part metal housing Lower part and opposite to it electrically with an insulating film insulated cover part.
- the bimetal rear derailleur is here from a spring washer with movable contact and one bimetallic disc placed over it.
- the spring washer and the bimetal washer are free in that Lower part inserted, are therefore not subject to mechanical Charges.
- the spring washer In the low temperature position of the rear derailleur the spring washer is supported with its edge on the inside Lower part and presses the movable contact against the inside the cover part so that an electrically conductive connection is produced between the lower part and the cover part. In this switch position, the bimetal disc is complete unencumbered.
- the bimetallic disc If the temperature now exceeds the step temperature of the If the bimetallic disc is raised, it jumps into its other one Configuration and then supports itself with its edge on the inside from the cover part, passing through the intermediate insulating film is electrically insulated from the cover part.
- this switch also has some disadvantages which are related to the fact that he is a two-piece metal case Has.
- problems if the insulating film slips, so that the required insulation between the lower part and the cover part is not is produced or the bimetal disc in its high temperature position not sufficient compared to the cover part is isolated. Creep currents cause particular problems here as well as insufficient air gaps for the insulation.
- connection technology in the known switch is such that crimp connections are provided on both housing parts the connecting wires are still connected by the user must, which is often because of the impossible automation is also considered a disadvantage.
- DE 43 37 141 A1 discloses a similarly constructed switch, which has the same advantages as that from DE-AS-2 121 802 known switches. With this switch, the insulating film glued to the cover part before assembly, however that the associated with the slipping of the insulating film Disadvantages are avoided.
- This switch also has an outer shoulder on the housing on which sits an annular end of a terminal lug, at the other end a first connecting wire is soldered.
- the second connecting wire is soldered directly to the cover part.
- this object is achieved in the aforementioned Switch solved in that the bimetal rear derailleur against a bimetallic disc-working spring part, which one movable contact that carries with the second electrode cooperates, and that on the spring part laterally a retaining projection is provided on which it is attached to the first electrode is.
- the inventors of the present application have recognized that that it is even with a temperature-dependent switch with an insulating housing is possible a rear derailleur with spring washer and against to use this working bimetal disc.
- the second Housing part is made of insulating material and on his Inside the second electrode is arranged, which from the Housing is led out.
- the advantage here is that as with the generic switch the housing is made entirely of insulating material, so that no further insulation measures are required if the new switch is mounted on a device to be protected.
- Another advantage is that the two are now welded together Housing parts with ultrasound is possible without being non-reproducible To cause changes in the switching behavior because namely, a free bimetal disc by ultrasound is not is influenced as the inventors of the present application could determine.
- the two electrodes which can be flat, the housing a good Stability.
- the new switch described so far shows both those with a tightly sealed housing made of insulating material as well as those with a freely inserted one, not for the power supply responsible bimetal disc related advantages.
- the spring part as a spring washer is formed with a retaining lug, which is in one Switch position with its free edge area at least in sections supported on a projecting shoulder, which in the first housing part is provided.
- the advantage here is that the shoulder, so to speak, a second Abutment for the spring part forms, so that there is approximately the Achieve the properties of a freely inserted spring washer to let.
- the moving contact is now in the specified Alignment pressed against the second electrode so that a good, reproducible contact is achieved.
- the spring part it doesn't work like a one-sided one now Spring tongue, as is the case with the generic switch bimetal switch tongue used there is the case, but like a spring washer with a bulge.
- the bulge which is also referred to below as a retaining attachment, can be designed so that the spring part is still a snap behavior having. Because the shoulder is protruding if there is still free space underneath it, it can The rest of the spring down through the bimetal disc be pushed through, so that comparable mechanical conditions as with the switches with metal housing discussed above can be achieved.
- the advantage here is that contact with in a simple manner the second electrode is prevented, which is on the inside of the second housing part is provided. Since this shoulder too protruding, there is also a sufficient clearance between the second electrode and the edge of the bimetal disc.
- the second Electrode is a sheet metal part, which is on the inside of the second housing part is held, and with the one lead lead to the outside is connected, for which an insulation channel in the housing is provided, which is preferably partially in the first and extends partially into the second housing part.
- the insulation duct can e.g. half each be provided in the two housing parts. After assembly the stranded wire then sits on all sides of the insulating material surround in the isolation channel so that leakage currents are safe be avoided.
- the first electrode is a sheet metal part, which is held on the inside of the first housing part is, and with which an outwardly leading connecting wire is connected for which an insulation channel is provided in the housing, which is preferably partly in the first and partly in the second housing part extends.
- the two Isolation channels parallel to each other on opposite Outside of the housing run and in one end of the Housing open.
- the advantage here is that there is a large distance between the two Connection strands is reached, making the still possible Clearances not by the thickness but by the width of the housing can be determined, which is usually larger than the fat.
- this arrangement of the Lead wires or the insulation channels can be a very flat one Switches can be implemented with the necessary ones Lengths of the possible air gaps can be maintained.
- Another advantage is that the two leads out of the housing side by side, what for the further, especially automatic connection technology is an advantage is.
- both housing parts essentially are made of solid material, in which geometric adapted recesses to accommodate the rear derailleur and Electrodes are provided.
- the advantage here is that the new switch itself is lightweight can be assembled.
- the two housing parts can automatically be equipped with the respective electrode to which the respective lead wire is soldered or welded. Then must still in one housing part, the spring part, the movable Contact and the bimetallic disc are inserted, the Spring part possibly together with the associated electrode in the Housing part attached or welded to the electrode can be. The two housing parts are then opened up and welded to each other with ultrasound.
- the new switch is thus is easy to assemble, with assembly done automatically can.
- the new switch also combines the advantages of generic switch with insulating housing with those of known switch with a metal housing, but still a safe and reproducible switching behavior is achieved and because the good insulation inside the switch, the smallest dimensions are achievable.
