Definitions
- Low-voltage circuit breaker with a housing having a front wall and a rear wall.
- the invention relates to a low-voltage circuit breaker with a housing having a front wall and a rear wall with certain functional divisions, the front wall and the rear wall being separated from one another by a separating joint running vertically in the position of use between the housing front wall and the housing rear wall.
- the circuit breakers of the circuit breaker are located between the front wall of the housing and the rear wall of the housing. It is therefore necessary to remove the rear wall of the housing for the purpose of maintenance or repair of the switch contact systems in order to gain access to the corresponding assemblies. This can be done after all screws have been removed that connect the rear wall of the housing directly to the front wall of the housing and to the foot plates.
- the rear wall of the housing and the front wall of the housing are relatively large and locally interleaved plastic molded parts, so that it cannot be avoided that a relatively large amount of force is required to separate the rear wall of the housing from the front wall of the housing. This can lead to a jerky movement of the rear wall of the housing in relation to the front wall of the housing when the two parts tilt or stick together.
- the current transformers are located in the rear wall of the housing are connected to the electronic tripping unit, which is located in front of the housing front wall and controls the protective functions of the circuit breaker.
- the electronic tripping unit which is located in front of the housing front wall and controls the protective functions of the circuit breaker.
- a low-voltage circuit breaker of the conventional type considered here is shown, for example, in US Pat. No. 4,764,650.
- This low-voltage circuit breaker is provided with a vertical joint between the front wall and the rear wall with certain functional divisions and shows the switch elements arranged in the two housing parts.
- DE-GM 296 15 162 shows a low-voltage circuit breaker with a current transformer arranged concentrically to the connecting rail and a connecting line to the overcurrent release, in which the switch rear wall can be swung backwards about a low-lying pivot axis arranged in the area of the foot plates is arranged. This arrangement is intended to avoid the risk of damage (tearing off) of the sensitive power lines between the current transformers and the overcurrent releases at the front.
- the object of the present invention is now to endanger or damage the electrical connection exclude cables between the current transformers in the rear wall of the housing and the electronic tripping unit in front of the front wall of the housing when the low-voltage circuit breaker is dismantled for maintenance or repair purposes.
- an integrated cable duct is provided in the bottom of the housing rear wall, which is located below the contact carrier bearings and of the current transformer chambers surrounding the lower connecting rails, extends essentially over the entire width of the low-voltage circuit breaker and has one or more through openings in the direction of the front wall of the housing for passing the connecting lines between the current transformers and a front-side electronic tripping unit.
- This cable duct is not cut by other rooms of the low-voltage circuit breaker, but forms a completely separate tunnel. It accommodates all cable harnesses in a room that is separate from the rest of the low-voltage circuit breaker and thus avoids the risk of damage to the cables during assembly, repair and maintenance work on the switch.
- the cable duct is closed with a cover plate, which consists of a thin and elastic material with sufficient strength against being pressed into the cable duct.
- a suitable material can suitably be a hard tissue.
- a housing-side groove is provided in the bottom of the rear wall of the housing with a nose extending in the groove over the entire length of the cable duct and into which the cover plate can be snapped in order to close the cable duct.
- the cover plate is preferably provided with one or more disassembly openings for assembly and disassembly. With the help of these disassembly openings, the cover plate can be inserted into and removed from the groove without the use of tools, the nose preventing the cover plate from being pushed into the cable duct.
- FIG. 1 schematically shows a section through a low-voltage circuit breaker, in which the spatial arrangement can be seen.
- Fig. 2 shows schematically a perspective view of a three-pole low-voltage circuit breaker from the bottom rear, in which the open cable duct according to the invention can be seen.
- Fig. 3 shows a detail of the housing-side groove for receiving the cover plate for the cable duct.
- FIG. 4 shows a possible embodiment of the cover plate for the cable duct.
- 1 shows schematically a low-voltage circuit breaker 1 with a housing front wall 2 and a housing rear wall 3, which are separated from one another by a joint (not shown), in a sectional view, in which the upper connecting bar 4, the lower connecting bar 5, passing through the current transformer Kammer 6, the arcing chamber 7, the switch actuator 8, and the movable contact carrier 9 are shown with the movable switch contact 10 to the spatial arrangement of the cable channel 1 1 of the invention in the case back 3 to be marked.
- This cable duct 11 extends, as can be seen in FIG. 2, in the floor 12 of the rear wall 3 of the low-voltage circuit breaker 1 below the invisible contact carrier bearings and the current transformer chambers 6 surrounding the lower connecting rails 5, shown in the illustration, in essentially over the entire width of the low-voltage circuit breaker 1.
- the cable duct 11 In the direction of the front wall 2 of the housing, the cable duct 11 has a passage opening 13 for the passage of the connecting lines between the current transformers and an electronic tripping unit 18 indicated by dash-dotted lines.
- cover plate 16 shown as a possible embodiment can be snapped into place to close the cable duct 11.
- This cover plate 16 which for example from
- Hard tissue is made, is provided for assembly and disassembly with two disassembly openings 17.
- the cover plate 16 can with the help of these disassembly openings 17 without the aid of Tools are inserted and removed in the groove 14, the nose 15 preventing the cover plate 16 from being pushed into the cable duct 11.
- the advantage of this arrangement is that channels can be provided for the cables from the sensors to the overcurrent release and display instruments during the manufacture of the housing parts, in which the cables cannot be damaged.
- the circuit breaker can be easily dismantled for repair and maintenance work without endangering the cables.
