My invention relates to arrangements for amplifying the contact pressure of contact-makin instruments.
It is an object of my invention to provide means for insuring that sufllcient pressure will be applied to the movable element to make adequate contact in the case of very delicate iristruments, such as voltmeters and milliammeters, for examplefhaving movable elements provided with contacts for control, regulating. signalling, or other purposes.
The use of so-called contact amplifiers" of various types has been proposed to improve the regulating characteristics of contact-making regulators. In most cases, these means have consisted of a shift of response'adjustment, short circuit, or insertion of resistance in the circuit of the current responsive element. Regulators have then been arranged for eliminating this additional torque upon operation. In such arrangements difficulties have been encountered in obtaining adequate amplification of the contact pressure, and at slow regulating speeds Difliculties have also been encountered in the case of regulators subject to considerable vibration owing to the inadequacy of the contact pressure and the fact that contact may be broken by vibration before any amplification of the contact pressure has taken place.
It is accordingly an object of my invention to provide an improved contact amplifier in contact-making instruments and to overcome the disadvantages of previously existing arrangements.
In carrying out my invention in its preferred form, reliable closing of the contacts is obtained by providing means for exerting a strong additional torque on the movement of the instrument at the instant the contacts make, and the ar rangement is such that the duration of the additional torque is only long enough to insure with certainty that a control impulse is given. For the purpose of providing such amplification of the contact pressure, an auxiliary torque-producing element is provided which is energized by a circuit closed simultaneously with the circuit to be controlled by the contacts of the contact-making instrument. The auxiliary circuit. however, contains such electric elements that it permits a strong, supplementary torque-producing current to flow upon making of the contacts and causes such current to taper off to a negligible value thereafter.
The invention will be understood more readily from the following detailed description when considered in connection with the accompanying drawings and those features of the invention which are believed to be novel and patentable will be pointed out in the claims appended hereto. In the drawings Fig. 1 is a circuit diagram ct of Fig. 2 with compensation for the rig torque which is produced by the illustrates a modification in the arrangement oi Figs. 1 to 3, in which an auxiliary instrument element is employed for producing an auxiliary torque. Fig. 5 represents a modification in the arrangement of Fig. 4 in which the time relationship between main and auxiliary torque is obtained by means of a transformer having a primary winding connected in series with the device to be controlled, instead of by a circuit of suitable time constant connected in parallel with the device to be controlled; and Fig. 6 illustrates a modification in the arrangement of Fig. 5 in which a resistor shunted by a time delay relay is utilized instead of a series transformer.
In the arrangement illustrated in Fig. l a deflecting, measuring, or indicating instrument is represented schematically as having a torqueproducing element or movement H, operating a movable arm or pointer 12 with a biasing spring 13 for providing the calibration in the customary manner of deflecting instruments. The movable member I2 carries a movable contact l4, cooperating with a stationary contact l5v causing a circuit to be'closed through a device 16 from a current source I! when the quantity.
responsive falls below a predetermined value.
Although omitted for the sake of simplicity in the drawing, it will be understood that apparatus similar to that associated with the contact I5 may be provided for the stationary contact 18.
For the purpose of momentarily increasin the contact pressure between the contacts l4 and I5 when the movable member I2 is deflected toward the contact IS, an auxiliary circuit 20 is provided, which includes a device 2i for exerting an auxiliary torque on the movable element l2 and has an impedance or opposition to the flow of current so varying with timev that a large torque-producing current flows momentarily. In the arrangement of Fig. 1 the device 2! consists of an electromagnet having a soft iron armature 22 mechanically attached to the movable member l2 of the instrument H. The circuit 20 includes, in series with the device 2|, a condenser 23, and a rheostat 24. The elements 3 illustrates a modification in the ar-- --ampliiying arrangement of Fig. 2. Fig. k
2|, 23 and 24, constituting the series circuit 20. are connected in parallel with the device l6 which is to be controlled by the contacts I4 and IS.
The relationship between the inductance of the electromagnet 2| and the capacitance of-the condenser 23 is such that the condenser effect predominates upon closure of the contacts l4 and I5. The current rush through the electromagnet 2| exertsa strong force upon the armature 22 to provide asupplementary torque for the instrument causing contacts l4 and |5 to press together strongly. However, as the condenser 23 charges. the current through the circuit tapers oh and eventually falls to zero so that no interference is placed upon subsequent deflection in the down-scale direction of the movable member I2. The rate at which the supplemental torque falls off may be adjusted by adjustment of the rheostat 24. It will be understood that the maximum value of the supplementary torque depends upon the relative values of the electrical dimensions of the elements l6, 2|, 23 and 24.
If desired, the arrangement in Fig. 1 may be modified'by the addition of a rheostat con- .nected across the condenser 23 and the rheostat -24 to provide a discharge circuit for the condenser 23 when contacts l4 and I5 are opened.
In order to prevent the introduction by the shunt rheostat 25 of a torque tending to hold the contacts l4 and |5 closed after an initial impulse applied by the instrument II, the apparatus may be modified, as shown in Fig. 3. In this modification the electromagnet 2| is replaced by an electromagnet 2|, having a pair of oppositely acting windings 26 and 21. There is a resistor 28 connected in series with the winding 26 across the device I6. A shunt rheostat 25' for discharging the condenser 23 is connected directly across the condenser 23. In this case a rectifier 29 is connectedin series with the winding 21 of the electromagnet 2|, the circuit in shunt with the device |6 including also the condenser 23 and the rheostat 24. The rheostats 25 and 28 are so adjusted that the torque produced by the current flowing through one is compensated by the torque produced by the' current flowing through the other, in :order to permit the contact operation to remain highly sensitive. The rectifier 29 is so connected that current can pass through the winding 21 only in the direction of increasing contact pressure, thus preventing a discharge of the capacitor through the winding 21 of the electromagnet 2|. Although I have shown a circuit employing a condenser 23, it will be understood that my invention is not limited thereto and does not exclude the use of an inductance instead, in which case, however, the discharge resistor 25' would be omitted, and the parallel circuits would be so adjusted that efiects of the windings 26 and 21 approached balance after steady state current had been reached in the inductance.
If desired, the embodiment of Fig. 1 may be arranged to produce an auxiliary torque aiding the opening of the contacts |4 and l5 when the instrument I tends to move the contact |4 away irom the contact l5. This may be done by making the armature 22 of permanent magnet material so that it is permanently polarized with the north pole toward the end of the electromagnet 2| which is normally a south pole when current starts to flow therein from'the source H, which in this case, is assumed to be a fixed-polarity direct current source. The strength of the permanent magnet 22 must, of course, be small enough so that it alone does not draw the member |2 toward the core of the electromagnet 2| when no current is flowing in the electromagnet 2|. When the contacts I-4 and I5 are closed by the instrument II the current rush through the electromagnet 2| produces a magnetic flux of the proper polarity to attract the armature 22 strongly until the condenser 23 has charged. However, when the contacts l4 and I5 begin to open as a result of reverse torque produced by;
the instrument H, the discharge current flows through the electromagnet 2| in a reverse direction and produces magnetic flux of reversed polarity and reversed torque acting on the armature 22, thus aiding in the contact-opening operation.
In the arrangement of Fig. 4 the supplementary torque is provided by an auxiliary instrument unit 30 which is connected, in place of the electromagnet 2| of Fig. 1, in a circuit paralleling the device l6, which is to becontrolled by the contacts l4 and I5. The connections of the instrument 30 are such that the current rush therein when the contacts l4 and I5 are closed provides a torque tending to increase the pressure between the contacts l4 and I5. However, when the contacts l4 and I5 are drawn apart by the instrument H the discharge current of the condenser 23 producescurrent of the opposite polarity in the instrument 30, thus causing it to aid in the contact-opening operation. It will be understood that in the arrangement of Fig. 4 the source |1 must be a direct current source and the instrument element 30 must be a direct current device, such as a. DArsonval galvanometer, producing torque in opposite directions in response to reverse in current.
In the arrangement of Fig. 5, a mutual inductance or transformer 3| is provided having a winding 32 connected in series with the controlled device l6, and having a secondary winding 33 connected across the auxiliary torque-producing instrument movement 30. In this embodiment of the invention when the contacts 4 and I5 are closed the current impulse through the winding 32 induces a current impulse in the winding 33 of such polarity to produce in the instrument 30 a torque aiding the contact-closing operation. However, when the contacts I4 and I5 are subsequently opened by the main instrument II the decay of current in the transformer winding 32 induces current of the opposite polarity in the winding 33, thus causing the element 30 to aid in the contact-opening operation.
In the embodiment of Fig. 6 there is a resistor 34 connected in series with the controlled device I6, and the auxiliary instrument element 30 is connected across the resistor 34. tions are such that contact pressure is amplified by the current flowing through the instrument movement 30 when the contacts 14 and I5 are closed. A time delay relay is also provided which has an actuating winding 35 connected in series with the contacts I and I5, and the source l1, and has a pair of normally open contacts 36, connected across resistor 34. After a predetermined time delay the contacts 36 close, shunting out the instrument unit 30, and eliminating the auxiliary torque. In this case the source |1 may be either a D. C. source or an A. C. source, according to the nature of the devices 30, I6 and 35.
- The connec- I have herein shown and particularly described certain embodiments of my invention and certain methods of operation embraced therein for the purpose of explaining its principle and showing its application, but it will be obvious to those skilled in the art that many modifications and variations are possible and I aim, therefore, to cover all such modifications and variations as fall within the scope of my invention which is defined in the appended claims.
