4 Claims.
This invention relates to a switching device, and particularly to a switching device adapted for use with an electric motor to change the operating voltage and rotation thereof.
In the ordinary type split-phase motor or in a double voltage motor, whenever it is desired to change the operating voltage or the direction of rotation, it is necessary to remove the conduit or terminal box cover and then change the motor connections at the terminal plate. This, of course, is troublesome and involves the removing of the clamping nuts from the terminal posts and the changing of the leads thereon and then the replacing of the clamping nuts.
According to the present invention, this procedure is greatly simplied, and all chance of error in making such change eliminated by providing a switch which is mounted on the motor and which can be moved to a plurality of positions for effecting the desired changes in the motor connections.
Accordingly, the primary object of thisinvention is the provision of an arrangement for changing the operating voltage or the direction of rotation of an electric motor without the usual procedure of interchanging lead connections at the motor terminal posts.
A particular object is the provision of a switch for changing the terminal connections of an electric motor at any time desired.
Another particular object is the provision of a switching arrangement which can be built integrally with the motor structure and which is readily accessible externally of the motor for making changes in the motor lead connections.
These and other objects and advantages will become more apparent upon reference to the following description taken in connection with the accompanying drawings, in which:
Figure 1 is a perspective view of an electric motor showing a switch of the nature referred to mounted on the side of the motor;
Figure 2 is a View looking in at the switch from the side of the motor drawn at a somewhat larger scale than it is shown in Figure l;
Figure 3 is a vertical section through the switch and is indicated by line 3 3 on Figure 2 Figure 4 is another section lookingin at the contact plates of the switch and is indicated by line 4 4 on Figure 3;
Figures 5, 6, and '7 are views similar to Figure 4 but showing the switch in other operative positions;
Figures 8, 9, 10, and 11 are wiring diagrams of a motor showing how the various motor leads (Cl. S18-202) are connected to the terminal posts of the switch; and
Figure 12 is a fragmentary view showing how an overload protection relay can be included in the motor circuit.
Referring to the drawings somewhat more in detail, the electric motor shown in Figure 1 comprises the usual frame l0 within which are positioned the stator windings and also within which is rotatable an armature for driving the output shaft I2.
Power may be brought into the motor in any suitable manner, as by means of a conduit I4, and connected to the terminals of the windings within the motor frame.
According to my invention, the motor is additionally provided with a switching mechanism, generally indicated at I6, and to `which all of the winding leads and the incoming power lines are connected, so that adjustment of the switch will adjust the operating conditions of the motor.
A somewhat enlarged view of the switch is illustrated in Figures 2, 3, and 4, and in these iigures it will be seen that the motor frame I0 is preferably apertured, as at i8, in Figure 4, for permitting access to the terminal posts of the switch, to which the various leads of the motor windings and the power lines are connected. The switch mechanism may comprise a pair of spaced insulating members 20 and 22 spaced by the spacer sleeves 24 and secured to the motor frame as by screws 23. Any suitably strong insulating material, such as flock, ber, or fabric-filled phenolic may be employed for the insulating disks. Other substances Well-known in the art may also be utilized for this purpose.
Mounted on member 20 are a plurality of studs 28 which are threaded on their one ends for receiving clamping nuts 30, and which have their other ends rounded, as at 32, on the other side of the insulating member for being contacted by the contact elements of the movable part of the switch mechanism. The said movable part of the switch mechanism comprises an insulating disk element 34 having riveted or otherwise suitably aixed thereto the contact plates 3S and 3f?. As illustrated, rivets 40 secure the contact plates to element 34, but it will be understood that other means could be utilized, if desired.
Insulating disk 34 is suitably mounted on a shaft 42 which preferably has its opposite sides iiat, as at 44, so that rotation of the shaft will also rotate the said disk. A spring 46 bears between insulating member 22 and the back of disk 34 and thereby continuously urges the said disk the other well-known means that may be employed for shifting the phase of the current in Winding 14 or for interrupting the circuit through winding 14, or both.
It has been mentioned that this invention is adapted for use in connection with motors hav- '.ing--an overload relayiincircuit;andf'this is in- .idicatedxin Figure l2,-.wherein1thereis' placed in series with line L2 the overload relay 80, so that Allofgwhenever the running winding of the motor .becomes overloaded, the said relay will open and :ininterrupt'the supply of power to the motor. So far as the switch of this invention is concerned,
toward the ends of studs 28 to hold contact plates 3S and 3G in good electrical contact with the said studs. A bushing S supports the one end of shaft 52, and nuts 56 secure the shaft against axial movement in one direction.
A shoulder 52 on the shaft on the opposite side of insulating memberl provides abearing for preventing axial movement 'of the shaftv in the other direction and the said shaft is thus held in its proper location at all times while rotation thereof is permitted for adjusting disk 34.
The aperture i8 in themotor frame'iszenclosed by a cover plate 54 secured to the frame by screws 55 and through which the-*shaftiexinthe;introduction-of the overload relay involvesV tends for receiving the indicator-.59).` Indicatorf has a pointed end E adapted for registering with the indicia E2 for indicating the` operating. conditions of the motor for each particular switch adjustment.
Inasmuch as the switch will ordinarily remain in; an adjustedposition for a considerableilength of time, plate d may comprise a plurality-of ...threaded'holes-S adapted-for receiving afscrew A`-5l extending through -indicatorg wherebythe indicator may be locked in each of its-operative. i positions.

'To adjust the motorto `counteifc'zlockwise"rotation with the same voltageobtainingf;the-:switch may be indexed ina clockwise directionf'byremovingthe screw-66 'and turning f the indicator so that pointer rB points tol thel indexforl LtheIlO -the index marked CC.onjthe-1f220lyoltnside,Lthe' connections shown in Figures 6 and 10 are obtained. In this case, terminals 2, 3, and 5 are connected together and terminals 4 and B, with terminal l not being interconnected with any of the others.
Reference to Figure will indicate that the running windings 'I0 and 12 are now in series between the power lines Ll and L2, and that the starting winding 14 is in parallel with running winding 12. Thus, each of the running windings is subjected to 110 volts, as well as the starting winding. It will be noted in Figure 6 that the notch 82 is in register with the terminal stud 2 toward the right-hand side of the view, and that the terminal stud 2 toward the left-hand side of the view is in engagement with contact plate 38.
In order to adjust the motor to clockwise rotation under 220 volts, indicator 58 of the switch is turned until its pointer 60 points to the index marked CW on the 220 volt side. The position of the switch that this produces is illustrated in Figure 7 and the motor connections in Figure 11.
It will be noted that terminal I is still not connected to any of the others of the terminals, that terminals 2, 3, and 8 are connected together, and that terminals 4 and 5 are connected together. The conditions within the motor are then the same as in Figure 10, except that starting winding 14 is reversed relative to the running windings 'l0 and l2.
It will be seen from the foregoing that my invention provides for a relatively simple switching arrangement for incorporation in a splitphase electric motor which makes it very convenient to change the operating voltage of the motor or to change its direction of rotation without the necessity of ever having to change the connections at the terminal box of the motor in the customary manner.
The switch is inexpensive to manufacture and nals are individually connected, said plate forming a part of a switch comprising a movable part having contact members thereon engaging said receiving the wires to be connected to the tercan readily be incorporated in a motor structure at the time of manufacture. The switch is accessible for adjustment at all times and is adapted for being locked in each position of adjustment, thereby insuring that the switch can not accidently become moved to an improper location.
The arrangement of my invention has been described and disclosed in connection with the usual type single-phase double voltage splitphase motor. It has been explained how it can be used with either a straight split-phase motor or with a capacitor start motor, but it will beunderstood that this 'mvenuon is also adaptable for other types of motors, for example, double voltage two-phase motors, double voltage three-phase motors, as well as electrical reversible motors and other types where changes in motor connections are made to adapt the motor to diierent usages, are all ideal subjects for combination with a switching device according to my invention.
It will be understood that this invention is susceptible to modication in order to adapt it to different usages and conditions, and, accordingly, it Vis desired to comprehend such modifications within this invention as may fall within the scope of the appended claims.
