Definitions

  • the present invention relates to an electrical apparatus for establishing or interrupting the current in an electrical circuit, said apparatus comprising at least two pairs of fixed contacts, each pair having two fixed contacts electrically connected respectively to an upstream terminal and a downstream terminal of the device, and associated with this pair of fixed contacts, a bridge of two movable contacts able to be moved between a first position in which it electrically connects these two fixed contacts, and a second position in which the flow of current between these two contacts fixed is interrupted, one of the pairs of fixed contacts and its associated mobile contact bridge being on a line carrying a phase, the other or another pair of fixed contacts and its associated mobile contact bridge being on a line carrying the neutral.
  • Such an apparatus known as a “contactor” is known, which is an electrotechnical apparatus intended to establish or interrupt the passage of current through an electrical or pneumatic control device.
  • this contactor can be unipolar, bipolar, tripolar or tetra polar.
  • this contactor has one to four power contacts designed to resist the appearance of an electric arc from a strong current on opening or closing.
  • a contactor In such a contactor, all the movable contacts are mounted in the same support so that they can all be moved at the same time when a closing or opening command is given to the contactor.
  • a contactor is able to be actuated either manually or by means of a coil able to be traversed by an electric current and to cooperate with a fixed armature integral with the fixed contacts of the contactor and a movable armature secured to the movable contacts of the contactor.
  • the fixed armature exerts no magnetic attraction on the moving armature, the magnetic circuit is then open.
  • the fixed armature attracts the mobile armature and sticks to it: the magnetic circuit is closed. The movements of the mobile armature thus cause the opening and closing of the contacts.
  • this apparatus comprises a neutral line, for example being of the tetra polar type comprising three phase lines and a neutral line
  • the neutral line is materialized in the same way as the phase line, that is to say it comprises two fixed contacts electrically connected respectively to the two terminals, and a movable contact bridge forming two movable contacts capable of cooperating respectively with the two aforementioned fixed contacts.
  • the installer In order to overcome this problem and to make sure that the electrical connection between the two upstream and downstream terminals on the neutral line is well achieved, the installer usually sets up by cautious wired external wiring electrically connecting both terminals, which is a constraint for the installer.
  • the present invention solves these problems and proposes an electrical apparatus for establishing or interrupting the current in an electrical circuit, such as a contactor, to eliminate the risk of neutral breakage without additional constraints for the installer.
  • the subject of the present invention is an electrical apparatus intended to establish or interrupt the current in an electrical circuit of the kind mentioned above, this apparatus being characterized in that the electrical connection between the two terminals situated on the neutral line is a permanent link.
  • the aforementioned electrical connection is made by a rigid conductor in one piece having at its two opposite ends respectively two end portions respectively forming the two connection pads respectively of the two terminals.
  • the aforementioned conductor has a U-shape having a rectilinear central portion having at each of its two opposite ends two successive right-angle pleats, said neutral conductor having a general shape corresponding to that of the set of conductors located between an upstream terminal and a downstream terminal, on each of the phase lines.
  • all the mobile contact bridges of the apparatus are mounted in the same support able to be moved by control means between the two aforementioned positions, each bridge of movable contacts passing through an opening of the support, so as to being able to be driven by it, to the two positions respectively closed and open, the neutral conductor passing through the support through a recess arranged relative to the conductor in such a way that the driver does not prevent the displacement of the support, the portion traversante the neutral conductor being in the same plane as the movable contact bridges when they are in the closed position.
  • the aforementioned opening allows the insertion of this mobile contact bridge parallel to the axis of the mobile contact bridge, and the aforementioned recess is adapted to allow insertion of the conductor into the support perpendicular to the longitudinal direction of this conductor.
  • the aforementioned neutral conductor is held and positioned in at least one slide provided in the inner face of a wall belonging to the housing of the apparatus.
  • this apparatus is of the tetra-polar type comprising three phase electrical lines and a neutral electrical line.
  • this apparatus is a contactor.
  • this contactor C is housed in a substantially parallelepiped-shaped housing B having a rear face 1 for attachment to a mounting rail, a front face 2 forming a nose, and two lateral faces 3,4 through which the contactor can to be attached to other devices of the same type on the rail, and two respectively upper 5 and lower 6 faces respectively comprising a set of downstream terminals A and a set of upstream terminals T.
  • this apparatus is of the tetra-polar type and houses four electrical lines 7, 8, 9, 10, respectively one neutral line 7 and three phase lines 8, 9, 10.
  • Each 8,9,10 phase electrical line comprises two fixed contacts 19,20; 21.22; 23,24 electrically connected respectively to a downstream terminal and an upstream terminal, and a bridge of two movable contacts 25,26,27 forming at its two opposite ends two movable contacts a, b respectively intended to cooperate with the two fixed contacts 19,20 to 24. All the contacts comprise at the contact areas, contact pads 28.
  • the fixed contacts are electrically connected and mechanically by their end located opposite the movable contacts, to the connection pad 12a, 13a, 14a, 16a, 17a, 18a of the corresponding terminal 12,13,14,16,17,18.
  • the electrical connection between the upstream terminal 11 and the downstream terminal 15 on the neutral line 7 is permanent, and is therefore not equipped, as is the case for the other phase lines, a movable contact and two fixed contacts.
  • this electrical connection is constituted by a rigid conductor 29 of flattened form consisting of a single piece.
  • This conductor comprises a rectilinear portion 29a having at its two opposite ends two right-angled folds 29b, 29c and forms, at its two opposite ends, two parts or connection pads 11a, 15a intended to be introduced respectively into the two corresponding terminals 11 15.
  • the shape of this neutral conductor 29 corresponds globally to that of each set associated with a phase current line, and comprising the two fixed contacts, the moving bridge, and the two connection pads.
  • the rectilinear portion 29a of the neutral conductor 29 is located in the same plane as each set comprising two fixed contacts and a moving contact associated with a phase line.
  • all the movable contact bridges 25,26,27 of the apparatus are mounted in the same support 30 adapted to be moved by control means of the manual or electromagnetic type, between the two aforementioned positions.
  • Each movable contact bridge passes through an opening 30a of the support, so as to be driven by it, to the two respectively closed and open positions, the neutral conductor 29 for its part passing through the support 30 through a recess 30b arranged relative to the driver in such a way that this neutral conductor does not prevent the displacement of the support 30, the neutral conductor being in the same plane as the mobile contact bridges when they are in the closed position.
  • This opening 30a allows the insertion of this bridge parallel to the axis of the bridge, while the aforementioned recess 30b is adapted to allow the insertion of the neutral conductor in the support 30 perpendicular to the longitudinal direction of this conductor.
  • a support such as that usually used in the prior art contactors, by removing an end portion 30c thereof so as to allow insertion of the neutral conductor in this support perpendicular to its longitudinal direction.
  • the neutral conductor is installed as follows. First of all, the neutral conductor 29 is placed in two slideways 31, 32 of the housing B of the apparatus illustrated in FIGS. Figures 7 and 8 then the two neutral terminals 11, 15 are respectively mounted at both ends of the conductor.
  • the support 30 equipped with the movable contact bridges 25,26,27 is placed in the housing of the apparatus until it is located just above the neutral conductor 29, after possible modification of the support 30 , as previously indicated, in the case where a support of the prior art is used. Then, the fixed contacts 19 to 24 are introduced into the housing B and the corresponding terminals 11 to 18.
