Abstract

The invention is based on the object of creating a light contact link which enables low-bounce switching of high connection currents (AC3 mode) and exhibits low arcing erosion when disconnecting high currents (AC4 mode). According to the invention, this object is achieved in that the contact link (3) consists of an electrically highly conductive non-ferrous metal, in that the ends (4) of the contact-pressure leaf spring (2) surround the ends (5) of the link (3), and in that the ends (4) of the contact-pressure leaf spring (2) extend to the contact plates (6). The invention is used in the case of moving contact links of air-cored contactors having soldered-on contact plates and end link ends via which the disconnection arc is passed on from the contact plates. <IMAGE>

Description

Die Erfindung betrifft eine bewegliche Kontaktbrücke für ein Luftschütz gemäß dem Oberbegriff des Anspruchs 1.The invention relates to a movable contact bridge for a Air contactor according to the preamble of claim 1.

Derartige Kontaktbrücken sind bisher aus Stahl gefertigt und be­ sitzen stirnseitige Enden, die als Abbrandhörner ausgebildet sind, damit der Abschaltlichtbogen von den verschleißanfälligen Silber-Kontaktplatten abgeleitet wird (siehe z.B. AEG Haupt­ katalog 1987/88, A 53.5.01/0487, Seite 1/11, Hauptschaltstück­ satz). Auch sind Kontaktbrücken bekannt, die aus einem Nicht­ eisenmetall bestehen und mit Abbrandplatten aus Stahl bestückt sind.Such contact bridges have so far been made of steel and be sit front ends, which are designed as burn-off horns are so that the shutdown arc from the wear-prone Silver contact plates is derived (see e.g. AEG main catalog 1987/88, A 53.5.01 / 0487, page 1/11, main contact sentence). Contact bridges are also known, which consist of a non are made of ferrous metal and equipped with steel burn-off plates are.

Der Erfindung liegt die Aufgabe zugrunde, eine leichte Kontakt­ brücke zu schaffen, die ein prellarmes Schalten hoher Einschalt­ ströme ermöglicht (AC3-Betrieb) und beim Abschalten hoher Ströme (AC4-Betrieb) einen geringen Lichtbogenabbrand aufweist.The invention has for its object a light contact bridge to create a low-bounce switching high switch-on currents enabled (AC3 operation) and when switching off high currents (AC4 operation) has a low arc burnout.

Diese Aufgabe wird erfindungsgemäß durch die im Kennzeichen des Anspruchs 1 angegebenen Merkmale gelöst. This object is achieved by the in the characteristics of Features specified claim 1 solved.  

Die Erfindung hat den Vorteil, daß die Dimensionierung der Brücke unabhängig von Anforderungen an das Abbrandverhalten er­ folgen kann. Damit ist die Möglichkeit zu einer Gewichtsverrin­ gerung der Brücke gegeben, wodurch das Prellen der Kontaktbrücke im AC3-Betrieb unterdrückt wird. Die Kontaktbrücke besitzt aber trotzdem Stahl-Stirnflächen, die den Abschaltlichtbogen von den Silber-Kontaktplatten ableiten und damit eine hohe Schützlebens­ dauer bei AC4-Betrieb ermöglichen. Das Ableiten des Abschaltlicht­ bogens über die Kontaktdruckfeder bietet gegenüber Brücken mit aufgelöteten Abbrandplatten Kostenvorteile, da bei diesen Brücken ein höherer Montageaufwand anfällt.The invention has the advantage that the dimensioning of Bridge regardless of the requirements for the erosion behavior can follow. This makes it possible to reduce weight given the bridge, causing the contact bridge to bounce is suppressed in AC3 mode. However, the contact bridge has steel end faces nevertheless, which cut off the arc from the Derive silver contact plates and thus a high contact life Enable duration with AC4 operation. Deriving the switch-off light bogens over the contact pressure spring offers compared to bridges soldered erosion plates cost advantages because with these bridges a higher assembly effort arises.

Eine vorteilhafte Weiterbildung der Erfindung ist in dem Unter­ anspruch 2 angegeben.An advantageous development of the invention is specified in the sub-claim 2 .

Anhand der Zeichnung wird ein Ausführungsbeispiel der Erfindung näher erläutert.An embodiment of the invention is shown in the drawing explained in more detail.

Fig. 1 zeigt die Kontaktbrücke als Baugruppe in Vorder- und Draufsicht, Fig. 1 shows the contact bridge as an assembly in front and plan view,

Fig. 2 zeigt das Kontaktsystem eines Drehstromschützes mit ein­ gebauten Kontaktbrücken in perspektivischer Darstellung. Fig. 2 shows the contact system of a three-phase contactor with a built contact bridges in a perspective view.

Die in Fig. 1 dargestellte Kontaktbrücke 1 besteht aus der Brücke 3, der darauf aufgesetzten Kontaktdruck-Blattfeder 2 und den an die Brücke 3 angelöteten Kontaktplatten 8. Die Kontaktplatten befinden sich auf der Unterseite der Brücke 3, wobei je eine in der Nähe der stirnseitigen Enden 5 der Brücke 3 befestigt ist. Die Brücke 3 besteht aus Kupfer oder anderen elektrisch gutleitenden Nichteisenmetallen, den Kontaktplatten 8 aus einer in der Kontakttechnik bekannten Silberlegierung und der Kontakt­ druck-Blattfeder aus Federstahl. Die Enden 4 der Kontaktdruck- Blattfeder 2 umfassen die stirnseitigen Enden 5 der Brücke 3, wobei sie bis an die Kontaktplatten 8 heranreichen und somit den Abschaltlichtbogen von den Kontaktplatten 8 ableiten. Die Kontaktdruck-Blattfeder 2 ist mit ihren umgebogenen Enden 4 auf die Brücke 3 geklemmt. Ausnehmungen 7 an den stirnseitigen Enden der Brücke 3 geben der Kontaktdruck-Blattfeder 2 einen Halt gegen seitliches Verschieben, so daß keine weiteren Be­ festigungsmittel zum Halten der Kontaktdruck-Blattfeder 2 auf der Brücke 3 erforderlich sind. Diese Befestigungsart ermöglicht die Verringerung des Montageaufwandes, der bei einem Auflöten von Abbrandplatten entstehen würde.The contact bridge 1 shown in Fig. 1 is composed of the bridge 3, the contact pressure placed thereon leaf spring 2 and the soldered to the bridge contact 3 plates 8. The contact plates are located on the underside of the bridge 3 , one each being fastened near the front ends 5 of the bridge 3 . The bridge 3 is made of copper or other non-ferrous metals with good electrical conductivity, the contact plates 8 made of a silver alloy known in contact technology and the contact pressure leaf spring made of spring steel. The ends 4 of the contact pressure leaf spring 2 encompass the front ends 5 of the bridge 3 , reaching as far as the contact plates 8 and thus deriving the switch-off arc from the contact plates 8 . The contact pressure leaf spring 2 is clamped with its bent ends 4 on the bridge 3 . Recesses 7 at the front ends of the bridge 3 give the contact pressure leaf spring 2 a stop against lateral displacement, so that no further fastening means for holding the contact pressure leaf spring 2 on the bridge 3 are required. This type of fastening enables the assembly effort that would be incurred if soldering the burn-up plates to be reduced.
