Description
Bei elektrischen Schaltern, insbesondere bei Leistungsschalter!!, verwendet man bekanntlich zur Schonung der den Dauerstrom führenden. Hauptkontakte Vorkontakte, welche kurzzeitig die volle Lichtbogenleistung übernehmen müssen. Trotz der in vielen Fällen kräftigen Ausbildung der Vorkontakte hat es sich gezeigt, daß die Lebensdauer derartiger Vorkontakte infolge des Abbrandes verhältnismäßig gering ist, so daß sie des öfteren ausgewechselt werden müssen,In the case of electrical switches, especially circuit breakers !!, it is known to be used for Protection of the continuous current carrying. Main contacts Pre-contacts, which briefly have the full Arc power must take over. Despite the strong formation of the previous contacts in many cases it has been shown that the service life of such pre-contacts is proportionate as a result of the burn-off is small, so that they often have to be replaced,
Zweck der Erfindung ist es, den geschilderten Nachteil der geringen Lebensdauer der die Lichtbogenleistung übernehmenden Vorkontakte zu vermeiden und eine möglichst hohe Schaltleistung bei kleinsten Abmessungen zu erreichen. Erfindungsgetnäß ge^ schieht dies dadurch, daß auf jedem Hauptkontakt mehrere Vorkontakte angeordnet sind, von denen je einer leitend mit dem Hauptkontakt verbunden ist, während die anderen isoliert gegen den Hauptkontakt angeordnet und mit den Vorkontakten des Gegen,-kontaktes elektrisch in Reihe geschaltet sind.The purpose of the invention is to remedy the described disadvantage to avoid the short service life of the pre-contacts taking over the arc power and to achieve the highest possible switching capacity with the smallest possible dimensions. According to the invention this is done in that several pre-contacts are arranged on each main contact, each of which one is conductively connected to the main contact, while the other is isolated from the main contact arranged and electrically connected in series with the pre-contacts of the mating contact.
Es ist zwar bekannt, mehrere Schalter bzw. Kontaktstellen in Reihe anzuordnen, um diese für kleinere Spannungen auslegen zu können. Man, hat auch in Reihe geschaltete Unterbrechungsstellen zu dem Zwecke vorgesehen, die Lichtbogenleistung von einem hierfür ausgebildeten und entsprechend angeordneten Kontakt übernehmen zu lassen, während der andere Kontakt nahezu lichtbogenfrei geschaltet wird. Demgegenüber sind nach der Erfindung mehrere Vorkontakte auf jedem Hauptkontakt angeordnet, die mit den Vorkontakten des Gegenkontaktes in Reihe geschaltet sind, so daß also der Abbrand des die Lichtbogenleistung übernehmenden Kontaktes geringer ist als bei, den üblichen Vorkontakten.It is known to arrange several switches or contact points in series in order to use them for smaller ones To be able to interpret tensions. One also has interruption points connected in series to that Purposes provided, the arc power from a specially designed and arranged accordingly To let contact take over, while the other contact is switched almost without arcing. In contrast are arranged according to the invention several pre-contacts on each main contact, which with the pre-contacts of the mating contact are connected in series, so that the burn-off of the arc power accepting contact is lower than with the usual previous contacts.
Zweckmäßig sind die Vorkontakte auf dem Hauptkontakt räumlich nebeneinander angeordnet. Um eine vorteilhafte Stromzu- und -abführung zu gewährleisten, ist auf jedem Hauptkontakt eine ungerade Anzahl von Vorkontakten angeordnet. Ferner ist es vorteilhaft, daß jeder Vorkontakt in einer durch Lichtbogentrennwände gebildeten, Kammer untergebracht ist.The preliminary contacts are expediently arranged spatially next to one another on the main contact. To a To ensure advantageous power supply and discharge, there is an odd number on each main contact arranged by previous contacts. It is also advantageous that each pre-contact in one by arc partitions formed, chamber is housed.

Der Hauptkontakt 1 ist ortsfest angeordnet und mit den ebenfalls ortsfesten1 Vorkontakten, 2, 3 und 4 versehen. Der Vorkontakt 4 kann mit dem Hauptkontakt 1 aus einem einzigen Stück bestehen oder aber auf bekannte Weise mit diesem stromleitend ver-Kontaktanordnung, The main contact 1 is arranged in a stationary manner and is provided with the also stationary 1 pre-contacts 2, 3 and 4. The pre-contact 4 can consist of a single piece with the main contact 1 or in a known manner with this electrically conductive contact arrangement,

bunden sein, Die metallisch verbundenen Vorkontakte 2 und 3 sind durch eine Isolierzwischenlage 5 von dem Hauptkontakt 1 getrennt. Der Hauptkontakt 6 ist ebenso wie die Vorkontakte 7, 8 und 9 beweglich angeordnet. Die Vorkontakte 8 und 9 können wie die Vorkontakte 2 und 3 entweder aus einem Stück bestehen oder aber durch ein Verbindungsstück, beispielsweise durch eine flexible Lasche 10, miteinander stromleitend verbunden werden. Beim Ein- und Ausschaltvorgang werden sämtliche Vorkontakte elektrisch hintereinandergeschaltet Wie aus den Bildern 1 und 2 zu ersehen ist, sind jeweils drei Vorkontakte nebeneinander angeordnet. Die Zahl der Vorkontakte läßt sich im Bedarfsfalle jedoch erhöhen, wesentlich ist mit Rücksicht auf die günstigere Stromzu- und -abführung nur, daß deren Zahl ungerade ist. Die Breite der einzelnen Vorkontakte kann dabei so gewählt werden, daß die eingenommene Gesamtbreite nicht größer als die des Hauptkontaktes 1 und 6 ist. Die schmale Bauweise der Vorkontakte begünstigt überdies die Anordnung von Trennwänden111 oder deionisierenden Eisenblasblechen, die den Lichtbogen je Unterbrechungsstelle in bekannter Weise stark abkühlen und unterteilen. Auf diese Weise wird eine weitere Steigerung in der Löschwirkung des Lichtbogens erzielt.The metallically connected pre-contacts 2 and 3 are separated from the main contact 1 by an insulating intermediate layer 5. The main contact 6, like the pre-contacts 7, 8 and 9, is movably arranged. The pre-contacts 8 and 9, like the pre-contacts 2 and 3, can either consist of one piece or be connected to one another in a current-conducting manner by a connecting piece, for example by a flexible tab 10. When switching on and off, all pre-contacts are electrically connected in series. As can be seen from Figures 1 and 2, three pre-contacts are arranged next to each other. The number of pre-contacts can, however, be increased if necessary; the only important thing, considering the more favorable current supply and discharge, is that their number is odd. The width of the individual pre-contacts can be chosen so that the total width assumed is not greater than that of the main contacts 1 and 6. The narrow design of the arcing contacts favors also the arrangement of partition walls 1 11 or deionizing Eisenblasblechen that strongly cool the arc each interruption point in a known manner and divide. In this way, a further increase in the extinguishing effect of the arc is achieved.
