Next, the operation when opening/closing section 6 will be explained.
When the movable electrode 8 is moved manually and begins to separate from the fixed electrode 7, an arc 40 is created between them.
begins to occur. During this time, a trigger signal is sent from the current transformer 11 and the pulse generator 12 to the trigger terminals 9a and 10a of the thyristors 9 and 10, as shown in Fig. 4 (E).
I keep giving ig. Then thyristors 9 and 1
0, depending on the electrical polarity at that time between the fixed electrode 7 and the movable electrode 8, one of them is electrically connected by the arc voltage caused by the generation of the arc 40 (the arc voltage is determined by the arc voltage after the arc occurs). , the minimum operating voltage of the thyristor is quickly reached). Therefore, terminal 4,
5 is energized by the thyristor on the conducting side, and there is no voltage between the fixed electrode 7 and the movable electrode 8, and the arc is extinguished. Eventually, the phase of power supply 1 becomes 0° or 180°, and terminal 4,
5 becomes 0 volts, the conductive thyristor 9 or 10 is turned off. Until the initial arc is extinguished and the thyristor is turned off as described above, as is well known, the movable electrode 8 is moved to the fixed electrode 7.
Since the thyristor 9 or 10 is turned off, the terminals 4 and 5 are
During this period, the electrical power is completely cut off, and the power supply to the load 2 is cut off. In addition, since only a half-wave current flows through the thyristors 9 and 10 above, it is recommended that the thyristors have a small current rating (capacity) (e.g. 30A, instantaneous current flow).
(possible up to about 600A) is sufficient. For waveforms during operation, refer to Figure 4 (E).In addition, in the opposite case, when the circuit is closed from an open state, that is, when the circuit is closed from an open state, the situation is as follows. That is, when an operation handle (not shown) is operated to close the circuit, the movable electrode 8 moves in the opposite direction and approaches the fixed electrode 7, so that an arc discharge occurs between the two and an arc current flows. Then, this current is immediately detected by the current transformer 11, and the trigger signal is given to the gates of the thyristors 9 and 10. At the same time, as described above, since voltage is applied to the thyristor by the arc voltage, the thyristor is fired and current flows through the thyristor. The arc voltage disappears with the passage of time (as the movable contact approaches the fixed contact), and the current flows only between the two electrodes, forming a normal electrical path (see the waveforms in FIG. 4).

In the case of the above configuration, in the turned-on state as shown in the figure, the current flows through the main circuit 5 of the power supply side terminal 4f, the fixed electrode 7f, the movable electrode 8f, and the load side terminal 5f.
flows to af. A trigger signal is constantly flowing to the thyristor from a trigger signal generator consisting of a current transformer 11f and a pulse generator (not shown). In the above state, when the operating shaft 31 is opened, the movable electrode 8f begins to move from the state shown in the figure to the right, and when the tip 33 separates from the fixed electrode 7f, an arc is generated between the tip 33 and the fixed electrode 7f. start. The generated arc voltage is applied to the thyristor because the thyristor is still in contact with the fixed electrode 8f via the fixed auxiliary contact piece 28. When the voltage reaches the minimum operating voltage, the thyristor is immediately turned on and current is transferred to the thyristor. In other words, when an arc voltage is generated, the arc current still flows through the main circuit, so the current transformer 11f detects this current and continues to give the trigger signal to the gate. As soon as the voltage reaches the minimum operating voltage of the thyristor, the thyristor turns on. Electricity is supplied between the connection terminal 4f and the movable electrode 8f through a path passing through the attachment piece 23, the thyristor 9f (or 10f), the connection piece 29, and the auxiliary contact piece 28. As a result, the fixed electrode 7f and the movable electrode 8f
There is no voltage between the tip 33 and the arc disappears. Eventually, when the phase of the power supply reaches 0° or 180°, thyristor 9f (or 10f) turns off.
The current flow between the connection terminals 4f and 5f is cut off. Further, as the movable electrode 8f continues to move to the right, its tip 33 will eventually separate from the auxiliary contact piece 28, but by that time the thyristor 9f (or 1
0f) is off, even if the tip 33 separates from the auxiliary contact piece 28, no arc will occur there. When the tip 33 reaches the position shown by the imaginary line in this manner, the connection terminals 4f and 5f are completely electrically and mechanically opened.

On the other hand, when closing the switch, when the tip 33 of the movable electrode 8f moves to the left from the position shown by the imaginary line, the tip 33 first moves to the auxiliary contact piece 2.
Contact 8. In this case, since the thyristor is off, no phenomenon occurs. Eventually, when the tip 33 comes very close to the fixed electrode 7f, an arc of advance discharge occurs between the two. Due to the occurrence of this arc, a current flows through the main circuit 5af (both contacts), and this current is detected by the current transformer 11.
The detected signal is continuously applied to the gate of the thyristor as a trigger signal. At the same time, an arc voltage is applied to the thyristor, and when it reaches the minimum operating voltage, the thyristor is immediately turned on and current is transferred to the thyristor. When the movable electrode 8f moves further to the left and the tip 33 comes into complete contact with the fixed electrode 7f, the voltage between the electrodes becomes 0, the current flowing through the thyristor becomes less than its holding current, and the thyristor turns off. In this state, the current flows between the power supply side terminal 4f and the fixed electrode 7.
f, the movable electrode 8f, and the main circuit of the load side terminal 5f.

It should be noted that parts that are functionally the same or equivalent to those in the previous figure are given the same reference numerals as in the previous figure with an alphanumeric letter "f", and redundant explanations are omitted.
(Also, in the following figure, the letter e is given with the same idea, and the redundant explanation is omitted.) Next, Fig. 3 shows the fixed contact 7e, the movable contact 8e, and the fixed auxiliary contact piece. This figure shows another example of a discontinuity unit made of 28e, in which the movable electrode in Fig. 2 is shaped like a rod, whereas the movable contact in Fig. 3 is shaped like a blade. There is a difference. In other words, when the movable contact 8e moves from the state shown in Fig. A to open the electric circuit, it separates from the fixed contact 7e as shown in Fig. B, then temporarily contacts only the fixed contact piece 28e, and then moves When the contact moves, it separates from the contact piece as shown in Figure C, and the thyristor 9e is completely disconnected from the electrical circuit.

Moreover, in the above case, when there is a current passing through the movable electrode 8f and the fixed electrode 7f, the current can be reliably detected by the highly reliable current transformer 11f, and the thyristors 9f and 10f
Since a trigger signal is applied to the thyristor 9f, as soon as an arc current is generated between the movable and fixed electrodes 7f, 8f, the thyristor 9f,
Since 10f is conductive, the arc extinguishing action due to the conduction of thyristors 9f and 10f is electrically synchronized exactly when an arc occurs, increasing the certainty of arc extinguishing and achieving extremely high reliability. The above effects can be obtained.

Moreover, the extinguishing of the initial arc is performed by the fixed electrode 7f.
This can be done in the process of separating the movable electrode 8f from the fixed electrode 7f in order to interrupt the electric path, and after achieving the arc extinguishing purpose, continue the act of separating the movable electrode 8f from the fixed electrode 7f in order to interrupt the electric path. As a result, the movable electrode 8f can be moved far away from the fixed electrode 7f, and the auxiliary contact piece 28, which becomes one end of the thyristors 9f, 10f, can be opened, thereby completely separating one end of the thyristors 9f, 10f. Therefore, even if the initial arc can be extinguished using the thyristors 9f and 10f, electric shock accidents caused by the arrangement of the thyristors 9f and 10f as in conventional products can be prevented.
