Description
- The present invention relates to a two-column electric disconnector.
- Two-column disconnectors with rotating arms are currently known.
- Such disconnectors have two posts, at the upper ends of which there are provided two arms that can rotate in a coordinated manner about the axis of the posts in order to connect at their free ends.
- Of these arms, the one that has a contact head adapted to engage a contact seat provided at the free end of the other arin, known as a female arm, is generally referenced as a male arm.
- Upon closure of the disconnector, the contact head engages the contact seat, so as to produce their electrical connection at electrical contacts with which they are provided
- The need to obtain an abutment of such contacts that is effective in order to achieve their electrical connection is particularly felt in the field of these devices.
- The need to achieve a connection between such contacts that is stable over time is equally strong.
- Particularly in the case of disconnectors for networks that operate at high electrical voltages, an uncertain and/or unstable contact induces electric arcs, to the full disadvantage of the safety and working life of the disconnector.
- A grounding switch with knife connector is disclosed in
DE 12 22 137 - The aim of the present invention is to provide a two-column electrical disconnector that meets these needs by ensuring, when it is closed, a safe electrical connection between its contacts.
- Within this aim, an object of the invention is to propose a disconnector that makes it possible to obtain a stable electrical connection between its contacts.
- Another object of the invention is to propose a disconnector that is structurally simple and easy to use and can be manufactured at low cost.
- This aim, as well as these and other objects that will become better apparent hereinafter, are achieved by a two-column electrical disconnector, according to the invention, that has the features set forth in claim 1.
- Further characteristics and advantages of the invention will become better apparent from the following detailed description of a preferred but not exclusive embodiment of the disconnector according to the invention, illustrated by way of non-limiting example in the accompanying drawings, wherein:
-
Figure 1 is a perspective view of a detail of a disconnector according to the invention in a partially open configuration; -
Figure 2 is a partially sectional enlarged-scale view of a detail of the disconnector according to the invention; -
Figure 3 is a sectional view of the disconnector according to the invention, taken along the line III-III ofFigure 2 ; -
Figure 4 is a sectional view of the disconnector according to the invention, taken along the line IV-IV ofFigure 2 . - It is noted that anything found to be already known during the patenting process is understood not to be claimed and to be the subject of a disclaimer.
- With reference to the figures, the
reference numeral 10 generally designates a two-column electrical disconnector, which comprises afemale arm 12 and amale arm 11, which is provided with acontact head 13 that is adapted to enter acontact seat 14 of thefemale arm 12. - According to the invention, a particularity of the
disconnector 10 is that it comprises acontact head 13 that hascontact recesses 15 which have a substantially open V-shaped profile in order to receive, upon closure of the disconnector,contact pads 16 of thefemale arm 12, with a contact of the type on two points A and B. - The
female arm 11 comprises two half-arms contact seat 14, having thecontact pads 16 thereat. - Moreover,
elastic means 18 for contrasting the divarication of the half-arms 17a are 17b are provide, said arms partially divaricating, in contrast with theelastic means 18, when thecontact pads 16 engage thecontact recesses 15 to close thedisconnector 10. - Advantageously, the
disconnector 10 comprises means for divarication of the half-arms contact head 13 in thecontact seat 14, which conveniently comprise: -
ramps 19 for divarication of the half-arms contact seat 14, -
pins 20 for pushing theramps 19, which are provided at thecontact head 13 and are adapted to push theramps 19 for divarication of the half-arms disconnector 10. - Preferably, the
contact pads 16 and/or thecontact elements 21 on which thecontact recesses 15 are formed are made of copper. - Moreover, the
contact recesses 15 conveniently have a hollow 22 at theirbottom 23 in order to contrast the abutment of thecontact pads 16 against thebottom 23, when thedisconnecter 10 is closed. - This is done to achieve such contact of the type on two points A and B of the
contact pads 16 in thecontact recesses 15. - The
female arm 12 conveniently has means for spacing the half-arms brackets arms - Preferably, the elastic means 18 comprise a
helical spring 25, which surrounds astem 26 that protrudes from afirst bracket 24a of thebrackets second bracket 24b. - The
ends spring 25 abut against ashoulder 27 of thestem 26 provided at its free end, and against anabutment 28 formed on thesecond bracket 24b, to contrast the divarication of thebrackets - Conveniently, the
shoulder 27 is formed by awasher 29, which is retained by abolt 30 screwed onto a threadedend 31 of thestem 27. - In addition, preferably there are provided
sealings 32 for electrical insulation of thestem 27 and of thespring 25 with respect to thebrackets - Operation of the disconnector according to the invention is as follows.
- Upon closure of the
disconnector 10, thefemale arm 12 and themale arm 11 rotate, and thecontact head 13, by aligning itself, engages thecontact seat 14. - More specifically, during such engagement, the
pins 20 abut against the ramps 19'and by pushing against them the half-arms spring 25 compressed between theabutment 28 of thesecond bracket 24b and theshoulder 27 of thestem 26, which is jointly connected to thefirst bracket 24a. - Substantially simultaneously, the
contact pads 16 abut against thecontact elements 21, establishing with them an electrical contact in thecontact recesses 15, substantially in two points A and B. - When closure of the
disconnector 10 is completed, themale arm 11 and thefemale arm 12 are aligned. - In this configuration, the
contact pads 16 are pressed against thecontact elements 21 in thecontact recesses 15 by thespring 25. - The mutual distance of the
contact pads 16 when they engage the contact recesses is such as to force a divarication of the half-arms spring 25 that opposes it, and thus presses thecontact pads 16 against thecontact elements 21, allowing effective and stable electrical contact between them. - Moreover, the
spring 25 is electrically insulated against at least one of thehalf arms - In practice it has been found that the disconnector according to the Invention achieves the intended aim and objects, allowing certain and stable electrical connection between its contacts, ensured by the mutual contact thrust produced by the spring,
- Further, the disconnector according to the invention is structurally simple and easy to use and can be manufactured at low cost.
