- a seal 16 is interposed between the two shells 12, 14.
- the geometry of the shells 12, 14 can make the subject of numerous variant embodiments.
- These shells 12, 14 define in combination an internal chamber 20.
- the chamber 20 is at least partially cylindrical of revolution centered on an O-O axis. This geometry is not limiting.
- the shells 12, 14 support two fixed contacts 30, 40, electrically conductive through the shells to be accessible, on the one hand outside the housing 10 for an electrical connection, and on the other hand on the inside of the chamber 20.
- the two fixed contacts are diametrically opposite with respect to the axis O-O.
- one of the contacts 30 can be extended inside the chamber 20 by a sector 32 of electrically conductive material in the form of sector crown centered on the O-O axis.
- the chamber 20 also houses a rotary movable contact 50 electrically conductive capable of rotation about the O-O axis.
- the rotary movable contact 50 is actuated in rotation by any suitable means. he is formed by a rectilinear bar which extends along a diameter with respect to the O-O axis.
- the rotary movable contact 50 is thus moved between at least two positions: a closed position as illustrated in FIG. 1 in which the rotary movable contact 50 provides a connection between the contacts fixed 30, 40 and an open position illustrated in Figure 2 in which the movable contact 50 is separated from the contacts 30, 40 and thus opens the circuit electric between them.
- the contacting cooperation defined between the ends of the rotary movable contact 50 and fixed contacts 30, 40 can be the subject of many embodiments.
- the fixed contacts 30, 40 are formed of knives, while the cooperating ends of the rotary movable contact 50 are formed of complementary pliers.
- the reverse layout can however be retained.
- these elements 30, 40, 50 are adapted to define multiple contacts at the level of each 30/50 and 40/50 torque.
- an arc A of general peripheral orientation develops between the ends of the rotary movable contact 50 and each of the contacts fixed 30, 40, as illustrated in FIG. 2.
- the current generating the arcs A is referenced I.
- sources of magnetic field 60 adapted to develop the arc in one direction axial, i.e. parallel to the axis O-O of rotation of the rotary contact 50.
- the sources 60 have a radial field orientation with reference to the O-O axis.
- attached sources 60 are formed of lovers.
- the sources 60 could be formed from electromagnetic coils powered electrically at least during the opening phase.
- the lovers 60 are housed in the shells 12, 14, close to the fixed contacts 30, 40, that is to say facing the area in which the arc appears.
- the magnets are embedded in the shells 12, 14. They are thus covered by a veil of material of the shells 12, 14 or added, which protect them from the arcs.
- the lovers 60 may be flush with the surface internal of the chamber 20, or protrude internally relative to this surface in room 20.
- the magnets 60 can be placed on the outside of the shells 12, 14. This arrangement facilitates the possible maintenance and replacement of these magnets 60, or even adjustment if necessary.
- the two lovers 60 can have opposite poles directed towards the axis of rotation O-O of the movable contact 50, as illustrated in figures 1 to 3.
- the arcs A are extended axially in the same direction.
- the direction of the magnets illustrated on the Figures 1 to 3 attached is of course not limiting.
- the two magnets 60 could have identical poles directed towards the axis O-O of rotation of the movable contact 50.
- the arcs generated respectively at proximity of the fixed contacts 30, 40 are extended in opposite directions parallel to the axis O-O.
- the shell 14 also supports a second fixed contact 42 connected to earth.
- the lovers 60 can be fixed on the shells 12, 14 by any appropriate means.
- the present invention is preferably used under shape of three axially juxtaposed chambers corresponding to the three phases of an electrical distribution network.
- the distances required between power lines of a three-phase network are compatible with axial dimensions required to allow arc development through with magnets 60.
- These three chambers can be formed from a housing single or if necessary of three juxtaposed boxes.
- the axial direction in which the arc is extended depends on the direction of the current at break.
- the assembly formed by the contacts fixed 30, 40, the rotary movable contact 50 and the magnets 60 (generally coplanar with each other and centered on a plane transverse to the axis of rotation O-O), is preferably placed in the middle position of the chamber 20 for allow the arcs to be extended either in one direction or in the other according to the direction of the current.
- the cut-off device is placed in the air.
- the device comprises a base 100 which carries two insulators fixed 110 and 120. These respectively carry terminals 112, 122 of connection on the ends of a line to be cut.
- Fixed contact 130 is connected to terminal 112 at the top of the insulator 110.
- the movable contact 150 is placed at the end of an arm 152 mounted at pivot on the top of the insulator 120, around an axis 154.
- the movable contact 150 is electrically connected to terminal 122 by any means appropriate, for example by the arm 152.

- the magnetic field source 160 is preferably formed of a permanent lover.
- this field source magnetic 160 has its axis of magnetization contained in a plane orthogonal to the axis of rotation 154 of the movable contact 150.
- Lover 160 is positioned to create a magnetic field perpendicular to the direction of the current of the electric arc, generated during the opening of the contacts, which causes a displacement of the electric arc in the axial direction, with reference to the axis of rotation of the movable contact 150.
- This source 160 extends the arc perpendicular to the plane of the Figure 4 and parallel to the plane of Figure 5.
- the magnet 160 is carried by a plate 162 secured to the fixed contact 130.

- the present invention also applies to devices for cutout placed in a box under controlled, waterproof or semi-waterproof, for example under SF6 or under nitrogen.
- the magnetic field source 60, 160 can be supplemented by additional cutting means, such as whips, air or gas blowing device, synthetic release chamber gas, elongation or arc breaking chamber, etc.
- additional cutting means such as whips, air or gas blowing device, synthetic release chamber gas, elongation or arc breaking chamber, etc.
