- pivotless contactor In an attempt to overcome the alignment difficulty, a type of contactor known as the pivotless contactor has been devised wherein a contact arm is held and located by a flat leaf spring. Because there is no lost mo-v tion or friction in the spring itself, there is commonly no difliculty experienced with relativealignment of contacts. However, as the spring must be free to bend over some appreciable length, and as the force exerted by the cam on the arm during the open period is ordinarily applied at a different distance from the spring than the force applied to the contact when closed, there are otten undesirable variations in the effective center of rotation ofv the contact arm during the process of making or breaking contact.

s laims. c1. 200-166) in effectively rotationally centering the contact arm during the process of opening and breaking contacts is avoided.
In the several types of circuit breaker systems heretofore constructed, certain disadvantages have been found. For example, in pivoted breaker type systems, there is the disadvantage that any clearance in the pivot bearing used in the breaker, whether radial or axial clearance, allows an undesirable variation in the relative alignment of the two contacts during operation. To keep these clearances within reasonable limits at all temperatures over a reasonable lifetime is an exacting problem of design and production, for as, the life of the contacts progresses, surface irregularities develop on the contacts. Normally, one contact becomes pitted and the other contact develops a projection of deposited metal. If these do not always mate exactly, both the performance and the life of the contacts are adversely affected.
In an attempt to overcome the alignment difficulty, a type of contactor known as the pivotless contactor has been devised wherein a contact arm is held and located by a flat leaf spring. Because there is no lost mo-v tion or friction in the spring itself, there is commonly no difliculty experienced with relativealignment of contacts. However, as the spring must be free to bend over some appreciable length, and as the force exerted by the cam on the arm during the open period is ordinarily applied at a different distance from the spring than the force applied to the contact when closed, there are otten undesirable variations in the effective center of rotation ofv the contact arm during the process of making or breaking contact. This effect is likely to be most pronounced at high speeds where inertia forces are relatively large in comparison with static forces. To combat this result, the effective length of the spring is made very short. The shortening of the spring, however, results in highly concentrated stresses in the spring and necessitates very exacting tolerances of forming to maintain proper contact pressure.
It is therefore an object of the present invention to provide a novel ignition contact breaker having a construction which provides exact contact alignment for the breaker and wherein said breaker may be definitely angularly positioned so as to provide for an improved high speed ignition contact make and break system.
It is an object of the present invention to provide a durable ignition contact breaker which operates at 'high speeds without chattering or rebounding.
It is an object of the present invention to provide a means for eliminating play at the pivot in order to reduce the spurious oscillations and contact bounce and thus improve breaker performance.
The invention, in another of its aspects, relates to novel features of the instrument-alities described herein for teaching the principal object of the invention and to the novel principles employed in the instrumenta-lities whether or not these features and principles may be used in the said object and/ or in the said field.
Otherobjects of the invention and the nature thereof will become apparent from the following description considered in conjunction with the accompanying figures of the drawing and wherein like reference characters describe elements of similar function therein and wherein the scope of the invention is determined rather from the dependent claims.
Referring now to the drawings:
FIGURE 1 is a top view of one embodiment of the completed lever.
FIGURE 2 is an isometric view of the breaker arm assembly employed in FIGURE 1.
FIGURE 3 is a crosseectional view of section 33 taken from FIGURE 1.
FIGURE 4 is a cross-sectional view of section 44 taken from FIGUERE FIGURE 5 is a top view of a second embodiment of the completed lever.
FIGURE 6 is an isometric view of the breaker arm assembly employed in FIGURE 5.
FIGURE 7 is a cross-sectional view of section 7-7 taken from FIGURE 5.
FIGURE 8 is a top view of web portion of FIGURE 5.
Generally speaking the present invention provides a durable circuit breaker lever which operates at high speed without chattering or rebounding of contacts. To accomplish this, a rubber or nylon gasket is force fitted around the pivot shaft which prevents play in the breaker arm and thus eliminates variation in the contact location. The breaker arm pivots by virtue of the displacement of the material utilized to grip the shaft. The force fitted material is not affected by the various temperatures and thus contact is assured at all times.
A circuit breaker 10 comprises breaker arm support plate 11 to which breaker arm 12 is to and allowed to rotate by cantilevered shaft 13. A rubber cup or gasket 14 is force fitted around shaft 13 and held in place by metal cup 15. Spring arm 16 is secured to plate 11 by securing means 17 and is secured to breaker arm 12 by U-shaped channel 18 which is crimped around spring arm 16. An end portion of spring arm 16 is secured in nylon.
rubbing portion 19 for actuating cam. A movable contact 20 is affixed to breaker arm 12 and a stationary contact 21 is mounted on ear 22 of support plate 11. Open ings 23 and 24 are formed in plate 11 for mounting purposes.
In FIGURE 2, it can be seen that spring arm 16 is held I to breaker arm 12 in U-shaped channel 18 which is crimped at four points to secure the spring. The channel and crimp eliminate riveting the spring to the breaker arm as is normally done in devices of this type. The end of the spring 16 has an aperture so that when nylon portion 19 is molded to spring 16, added holding strength is obtained. The relationship between spring 16 and portion 19 can be seen in FIGURE 4. Portion 19 also interfits with the U-shaped channel and is held by the crimping and pressure from the spring. The interrelation of rubber gasket 14 which prevents dislocation of shaft 13 (not shown) and metal cup 15 can also be seen in FIGURE 2.
I FIGURE 3 shows the shaft assembly in detaiL. Shaft 13 is secured to plate 11 by staking means 23. Rubber cup 14 may be formed in two portions as is shown in the drawing or in one portion, and is secured by metal cup 15 which is in two portions and is spot welded at point 26. The metal cup is crimped around the ends of the rubber cup to secure it to the shaft. Washer 25 is part of the securing means 23.
A second embodiment of the present invention is shown in FIGURE 5. Circuit breaker 30 comprises a breaker arm support plate 31. Breaker arm 32 is secured to plate 31 by cantilever shaft 33. As can be seen in FIGURE 6, the major portion of breaker arm 32 is a molded nylon portion 34. Portion 34 has webbed portion 35 which is force fitted over shaft 33 to prevent bouncing and thus prevent contact misalignment. Spring arm 36 interfits and is riveted to recessed portion 37 of nylon portion 34, portion 34 being secured to metal portion 44 by the same riveting process at four points, 38, 39, 40 and 41. Contact portion 42 for actuator cam (not shown) is part of molded portion 34. The metal portion 44 interfits in channel 43 of nylon portion 34 prior to riveting. Metal portion 44 has a movable contact 45 secured thereto. A stationary contact 46 is attached to ear 47 of plate 31. The top portion of springarm 36 is afiixed by securing means 49. Y 1
In FIGURE 7, webbed portion 35 of molded nylon arm 34 is shown after being force fitted over splined shaft 33. The relation of spring 36 to the shaft assembly is also shown. Washer 48 separates webbed portion 35 from plate 31. Shaft 33 is secured to plate 31 by securing means 50.
0.0016 or A degree.
In both embodiments of the present invention, play in the breaker arm wln'ch results in variation in the contact location, and thus chattering and rebounding of contacts is eliminated by force fitting a rubber or nylon gasket around the pivot shaft. The breaker arm then pivots by virtue of displacement of the material utilized to grip the shaft. The force fitted materials are not affected by various temperatures and thus accurate contact is assured at all times.
The embodiments of novel invention as hereinabove described are merely illustrative and not exhaustive in scope and since many widely different embodiments of the invention may be made without departing from the scope thereof, it is intended that all matter contained in the above description and shown in the accompanying drawings shall be interpreted as illustrative and not in a limiting sense.
