Abstract

PURPOSE:To suppress consumption of a movable contact by narrowing the space between a movable contact and an electrode plate and transmitting and suppressing temperature increase, which becomes high when arc current generated in the movable contact is extended to the electrode plate to the movable contact in the side end part of the electrode plate to the electrode plate. CONSTITUTION:The title apparatus is composed with a movable contact 17 in the opposite to a fixed contact, a movable contacting plate 16 forming a contact seat 25 where the movable contact 17 is fixed, and an electrode plate 18 which is so placed in the plane in the contact seat 25 side as to make the distance between the electrode plate 18 and a fixed contact narrower reversely than a distance between the fixed contact and the movable contact 17 by opening operation of the movable contacting plate 16 and has a vertical platen standing against the contact seat 25. After the electrode plate 18 is installed in the movable contact plate 16, a movable contact is mounted on the contacting seat 25 of the movable contacting plate 16 while its side being in contact with the vertical plane of the electrode plate 18. Consequently, the space between the movable contact 17 and the electrode plate 18 becomes narrow and temperature increase, which becomes high when an arc current geenrated in the movable contact 17 is extended to the electrode plate 18 in the electrode plate side end part of the movable contact 17, is transmitted to the electrode plate 18 and suppressed. By this method, consumption of the movable contact 17 is suppressed.

The arc-extinguishing operation of the contact device 1 is performed when an overcurrent flows between the contacts 9 and 17 in the state shown in Fig. 6 (a), in which the contacts 9 and 17 are closed, as shown in Fig. 6 (b). Due to the repulsive force, the relationship between the movable contact plate 16 and the spring 23 is reversed, and the movable contact 17 is separated from the fixed contact 9, and at the same time, an arc current I flows between the contacts 9 and 17.

Therefore, in the above-mentioned contact device, the movable contact and the electrode plate face each other in such a way that the height of the movable contact is higher than the height of the electrode plate so that the electrode plate does not prevent the movable contact from contacting the fixed contact. Although the steps are provided, when the arc current generated in the movable contact is extended to the electrode plate, the temperature rise at the end of the movable contact on the electrode plate side becomes extremely large, and this temperature rise leads to melting of the contact. This resulted in accelerated wear of the movable contacts.

In order to solve this problem, we have developed a movable contact that faces a fixed contact, a movable contact plate that forms a contact seat that fixes this movable contact, and the fixed contact and movable contact that are connected to each other as the movable contact plate opens. The electrode plate is installed on the surface of the contact seat side and has a vertical surface that stands upright with respect to the contact seat so that the distance from the fixed contact side is inversely smaller than the separation distance from the contact seat. After the movable contact plate is equipped with the electrode plate, the movable contact is placed on the contact seat of the movable contact plate with its side surface in contact with the vertical surface of the electrode plate, and the movable contact is mounted on the movable contact plate. The movable contact is fixed.

The temperature rise at the end of the movable contact on the electrode plate side, which increases when the movable contact is extended, is conducted to the electrode plate and suppressed, reducing melting of the contact and suppressing wear and tear of the movable contact.

Since the contact device of the present invention is configured as described above, the movable contact is fixed while in contact with the electrode plate, so the space between the movable contact and the electrode plate becomes extremely narrow, and arcs generated at the movable contact are The temperature rise at the end of the movable contact on the electrode plate side, which increases when the current is extended to the electrode plate, is conducted to the electrode plate and is suppressed, reducing melting of the contact and suppressing wear and tear on the movable contact. Furthermore, since the movable contact is placed on the contact seat in contact with the electrode plate, it is possible to simplify the positioning work necessary for equipping the movable contact.
