Definitions

  • the present invention relates to an electrical switch used for opening and closing an electrically conductive path between an electric supply and an electric load.
  • the present invention relates to an electrical switch adapted for facilitating efficient contact replacement.
  • each movable contact includes an electrically conductive elongated rigid sheet with contact pads mounted on opposite ends thereof such that each movable contact may engage a corresponding set of stationary contacts in a bridge-like manner.
  • the supply-side and load-side stationary contacts are connected to an electrical supply and an electrical load respectively.
  • Such electrical switches may be either manually or electrically actuated.
  • an actuating assembly is provided to cause displacement of the movable contacts from a normal position to an actuated position.
  • the electrical switches may be classified as normally-open and normally-closed type electrical switches.
  • the actuating assembly displaces the movable contacts from an open position to a closed position.
  • various biasing means return the movable contacts back to an open position, and thereby, interrupting the electrically conductive path. The operation is reversed in case of a normally-closed electrical switch.
  • a movable contact assembly includes a movable contact suitable mounted in an insulating carrier using a holder element in conjunction with suitable biasing means.
  • the biasing means are such that not only the movable contact is efficiently retained in the insulating carrier but sufficient contact pressure between the movable contact and the corresponding pair of stationary contacts is also generated in the closed position.
  • a contactor which includes, in addition to various conventional parts, a bridging contact structure, an insulating contact carrier, and contact support means including a spring support, a contact-pressure spring, and a damping spring.
  • the contact-pressure spring is disposed on one side of said bridging contact structure to bias said spring support against said damping spring, and thereby, to bias said damping spring on the opposite side of said bridging contact structure and hence, bias said bridging contact structure against said contact carrier, and thereby supporting said bridging contact structure on said contact carrier.
  • said insulating contact carrier is displaced from an open position to a closed position.
  • said contact carrier moves an additional distance whereby said contact pressure spring is charged to operate through said spring support and damping spring to provide contact pressure between said spaced stationary contacts and said bridging contact structure.
  • the size of the electrical switch is based on an electrical rating of the electrical switch, that is, magnitude of an operating current and/or an operating voltage that the electrical switch is anticipated to be subjected to during its operation. This follows from the fact that an increase in the current carrying capacity of an electrical switch requires a corresponding increase in the cross-sectional area of various current carrying parts of the electrical switch. Hence, as the operating current and/or the operating voltage increases, the size of the electrical switch also has to be increased accordingly.
  • Various constituent elements included in an electrical switch such as the stationary and movable contacts, the movable contact assembly, and so on, have to be proportionately scaled up according to the increase in size of the electrical switch.
  • the movable contact assembly With increasing electrical ratings, the movable contact assembly as well as various components included therein tend to become quite large. Thus, as the electrical rating of the electrical switch progressively increases, the resilient means, such as compression springs, used in the movable contact assembly must be progressively configured to provide the increased contact force between abutting movable and stationary contacts.
  • the movable contacts are inspected for mechanical wear and when necessary, are replaced.
  • the patent discloses a movable contact structure for a large-sized electrical switch.
  • the contact structure includes a movable contact retainer that has apertured ears and the base of the switch which supports the stationary contacts includes support posts, which, when the switch is disassembled to inspect the contacts, are available to act as a fulcrum for the shank of a screwdriver when the tip of the screwdriver is inserted into the apertures.
  • the screwdriver thus may be used as a tool to overcome the spring forces holding the movable contact retainer and thus facilitate the removal and replacement of the movable contacts from its position on the movable contact carrier.
  • the disclosed electrical switch provides means for facilitating movable contact replacement. However, it fails to provide desired ease and efficiency.
  • US-A-3602850 discloses an electrical switch according to the preamble of claim 1.
  • an electrical switch such as an electrical contactor, adapted for facilitating efficient contact replacement.
  • an electrical switch adapted for facilitating contact replacement.

  • the carrier is an elongated insulating structure which comprises a head-end, a base-end, a first socket extending from the base-end along a substantially longitudinal axis, and a second socket along a substantially transverse axis intermediate the head and the base ends such that the first socket is in continuum with the second socket.
  • the holder element is adapted for being movably inserted inside the first socket through the base-end, and further adapted for receiving the movable contact through the second socket.
  • the biasing means bias the holder element, towards the base-end of the carrier such that the movable contact is supported inside the carrier.
  • the carrier comprises carrier coupling means adapted for coupling to an actuator device in such a manner that the holder element is displaceable relative to the carrier along a direction extending from the base-end towards the head-end against a biasing force exerted by the biasing means.

  • the holder element comprises a head-end and a base-end.
  • the head-end is adapted to pass through the retaining means.
  • the base-end is adapted to engage a second end of the biasing means.

  • the electric switch is provided with the actuator device which comprises an actuator arm and actuator coupling means.
  • the actuator arm is linearly displaceable along the longitudinal axis of the carrier.
  • the actuator coupling means facilitate mounting the actuator device on the carrier such that the actuator arm is operable to engage the holder element.
