Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a switch assembly comprising a protection device and a contactor device, as well as a mechanical association part of the contactor device with the protection device and electrical interconnection between the two devices, the part being intended to be placed in an intermediate position between the two devices and to be connected to power terminals of the two devices by respective pins directed in opposite directions.
  • the protective device may be for example a circuit breaker device or a fuse holder.
  • a set is described in the document EP-588,712 .
  • the mechanical association of the contactor device with the circuit breaker device is achieved in particular by the engagement of a heel of the association piece in a recess provided at the rear of the contactor device.
  • Such a piece of association is specific to a single size of contactor device and, to assemble various types of contactor devices to the same circuit breaker device, it is necessary to use various intermediate parts.
  • the document DE 196 00 557 describes a device according to the preamble of claim 1.
  • the object of the invention is to make it possible to assemble easily and at low cost switch assemblies, in particular motor starters.
  • the association piece has means of adaptation in position, in particular to assemble a fixed size protective device to contact devices of different sizes or adjust the relative position of the two devices of the switch assembly.
  • the association piece preferably comprises an insulating body provided at the rear of at least one support element of one of the apparatuses, the adaptation means allowing the choice of the position of this support element in depth and / or in height.
  • These adaptation means may comprise at least one attachment heel which is intended to secure the association piece with the contactor device and / or the protective device and which has a variable position, in particular by being provided on a adjustable part fixed to the association piece, for example snap-fit on it in different positions offset in depth, and / or with support forms offset in height.
  • the figure 1 is a side view of a motor starter assembly according to the invention.
  • FIGS. 2 and 3 are perspective views on a larger scale of the piece of association of the whole of the figure 1 , the part being shown in two states allowing the assembly of contactors of different sizes.
  • FIGS. 4 to 6 show in side view a part of an assembly according to the invention, with assembly to the same circuit breaker contactors of different sizes.
  • the whole of the figure 1 comprises a circuit breaker 10 and a contactor 20 assembled by means of an intermediate piece 30.
  • the circuit breaker 10 can be fixed at its rear part to a support such as a rail standardized by fastening elements 11 and comprises at its front part On the other hand, it has upstream (high) 13 and downstream (low) power terminals 14.
  • the contactor 20 has rear faces 21 and front 22, as well as upstream (high) power terminals 23 and downstream (low) 24.
  • the intermediate piece 30 is of relatively flat shape and comprises an insulating body 31, as well as conductors secured to the body and connected by high pins 33 to the lower terminals 14 of the circuit breaker and by low pins 34 to high terminals 23 of the contactor.
  • the pins shown are fixed, but they could be adjustable to accommodate variable interbornes.
  • the piece 30 is held on the circuit breaker by retaining elements such as heels 32 cooperating with recesses 15, for example slots, provided in the circuit breaker housing (see FIG. figure 4 ), as well as by the clamping of the pins 33 in the terminals 14.
  • the switch is fixed under the piece 30 by a heel 35 provided at the rear of a piece 36 snap-fitted in an adjustable manner at the rear of the piece 30, as well as by tightening the pins 34 in the terminals 23.
  • the adjustment of the position of the piece 36 makes it possible to adjust the position of the heel 35 in the X direction, that is to say in depth.
  • the removable piece 36 is in the shape of a square provided with a horizontal flange 37 for holding in the piece 30 and a vertical flange 38 for supporting the contactor.
  • the horizontal flange 37 is engaged against a notch, abutment or similar support 36a, 36b of the body 31 of the part 30 and the vertical support flange 38 is provided with two notches or other similar forms 39,40 on which must hang the back of the switch housing.
  • the piece 36 is shown in a retracted position on the figure 2 and in advanced position on the figure 3 , the stop 36b being located further back than the stop 36a.
  • the two notches 39,40 allow the mounting of ribs 25 or other forms of the contactor located at a variable height depending on the type of the switch with respect to its upper face 26; this upper face 26 is defined by various abutment elements and is applied against the lower face of the part 30.
  • the notches 39,40 thus allow to adapt the association piece to the size of the contactor in the direction Z, c that is to say in height.
  • the invention also relates to the possibility of adjusting the position of the contactor relative to the circuit breaker by notches or adjustable parts associated with the part 30 on the side of the circuit breaker.
  • the male or female forms that have been described can of course be reversed.
  • the adaptation can be made on the position of the rear face 21 of the contactor relative to that of the rear face 16 of the circuit breaker, or the front face 22 of the contactor relative to the front face 17 of the circuit breaker.
  • the described circuit breaker may be replaced by a fuse holder or other similar protective device.
