Sur la figure 1, on voit un tableau électrique T selon l'invention destiné à assurer une protection générale, une protection différentielle, un sectionnement général et une protection des départs individuelle contre les surcharges.On the figure 1 , we see an electrical panel T according to the invention for providing general protection, differential protection, general sectioning and protection of individual departures against overloads.

Ce tableau T comprend, logés dans un boîtier monobloc B, de gauche à droite, huit modules de départ 1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8 , un module de référence 9, un module dit principal 10 et, non représenté sur cette figure mais représenté sur la figure 2, un module de protection différentielle 11, le boîtier B de ce tableau étant destiné à être monté sur un rail de montage fixé sur une surface de support.This table T comprises, housed in a one-piece housing B, from left to right, eight starting modules 1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8, a reference module 9, a so-called main module 10 and, not shown in this figure but represented on the figure 2 , a differential protection module 11, the housing B of this table being intended to be mounted on a mounting rail fixed on a support surface.

Sur la figure 2, on voit que le module dit principal 10 comporte plusieurs pôles de coupure, respectivement l'un de neutre 12 et deux de phase 13,14, chaque pôle comportant un interrupteur 15,16,17, des moyens de déclenchement dits premiers 18,19,20 de cet interrupteur, des moyens de détection d'un court-circuit 21,22,23, et des moyens de détection d'une surcharge électrique 60,61,62. Chaque module de départ 1 à 8 comporte des moyens de détection d'une surcharge électrique 24 commandant des moyens de déclenchement dits seconds 25, lesdits moyens de déclenchement étant aptes à commander des moyens de commande 26 des moyens de déclenchement dits premiers 18,19,20 des interrupteurs 15,16,17 de l'appareil principal 10.On the figure 2 it can be seen that the so-called main module 10 has several breaking poles, one of neutral 12 and two of phase 13,14 respectively, each pole comprising a switch 15,16,17, so-called first tripping means 18,19 , 20 of this switch, means for detecting a short-circuit 21,22,23, and means for detecting an electrical overload 60,61,62. Each starting module 1 to 8 comprises means for detecting an electrical overload 24 controlling means for tripping said second 25, said triggering means being able to control control means 26 so-called first tripping means 18,19,20 of the switches 15,16,17 of the main apparatus 10.

Le module de protection différentielle 11 comporte de manière classique des moyens de détection différentiels 27 sur les lignes de phase et de neutre de l'appareil principal, et des moyens de commande 28 des moyens de déclenchement 18,19,20 dits premiers des interrupteurs de l'appareil principal 10.The differential protection module 11 conventionally comprises differential detection means 27 on the phase and neutral lines of the main apparatus, and control means 28 of said first trigger means 18, 19, 20, the main unit 10.

L'appareil de protection différentiel 11 comporte également deux bornes de terre 29,30 raccordées l'une à l'autre et destinées à être raccordées au conducteur de protection ou de terre.The differential protection device 11 also has two earth terminals 29,30 connected to each other and intended to be connected to the protective or earth conductor.

Comme ceci est également illustré sur les figures 3,4 et 5, ce module de référence 9 loge une borne de neutre 31 destinée au raccordement de toutes les sorties des appareils de départ. Ce module est destiné à être positionné d'un côté par rapport aux appareils de départ, et de l'autre côté par rapport à l'appareil principal au moyen de pions de centrage 32,33,34,50,51 (seuls les pions situés du côté disjoncteur sont représentés).As this is also illustrated on the figures 3 , 4 and 5 , this reference module 9 houses a neutral terminal 31 for connecting all the outputs of the starting devices. This module is intended to be positioned on one side with respect to the starting apparatus, and on the other side with respect to the main apparatus by means of centering pins 32, 33, 34, 50, 51 (only the pieces located on the breaker side are shown).

Comme on le voit sur les figures 6 à 9, les moyens de commande 26 des moyens de déclenchement dits premiers 18,19,20 comportent une barre de déclenchement 35 montée à l'intérieur du boîtier autour d'un axe X s'étendant parallèlement à la direction d'alignement des appareils.As we see on the Figures 6 to 9 , the control means 26 of said first release means 18,19,20 comprise a trigger bar 35 mounted inside the housing around an axis X extending parallel to the alignment direction of the devices.

Tel qu'illustré sur les figures 8 et 9, cette barre de déclenchement 35 comporte quatre parties, à savoir une poutre rectiligne 36, un premier 37 et un second 38 support d'extrémité et une tige d'articulation 39. Cette tige 39 est montée rotative par rapport au boîtier autour de l'axe X précité et passe à travers tous les mécanismes des modules de départ 1 à 8, ladite tige servant d'axe d'articulation aux dits mécanismes, et venant se positionner dans ledit module de référence 9 qui le supporte. A ses deux extrémités opposées sont fixées respectivement les deux supports d'extrémité précités 37,38, un joint 40,41 étant interposé entre chaque extrémité de la tige et le support associé à ladite extrémité, lesdits joints permettant au système de tourner librement et d'absorber tout défaut d'alignement possible avec l'axe de rotation. Chaque support comporte à l'une de ses extrémités, une partie présentant une ouverture 42,43 s'étendant sur une certaine longueur parallèlement à l'axe de la tige et destinée à recevoir pour y être fixées respectivement les deux extrémités de la poutre 36.As illustrated on Figures 8 and 9 , this trip bar 35 comprises four parts, namely a rectilinear beam 36, a first 37 and a second 38 end support and a hinge pin 39. This rod 39 is rotatably mounted relative to the housing around the aforementioned X-axis and passes through all the mechanisms of the starting modules 1 to 8, said rod serving as a hinge axis to said mechanisms, and being positioned in said reference module 9 which supports it. At its two opposite ends are respectively fixed the two said end supports 37,38, a seal 40,41 being interposed between each end of the rod and the support associated with said end, said seals allowing the system to rotate freely and absorb any possible misalignment with the axis of rotation. Each support comprises at one of its ends, a portion having an opening 42,43 extending over a certain length parallel to the axis of the rod and intended to receive to be fixed respectively the two ends of the beam 36 .

Les deux supports 37,38 comportent également à leur extrémité opposée à la précédente, un contrepoids 44,45, ou masselotte, l'un 44 des deux étant plus important que l'autre, ce contrepoids étant destiné à empêcher les déclenchements intempestifs lorsque des vibrations se produisent sur le produit. Ces contrepoids représentent une masse de matériau agencée de manière que le centre de masse de la barre de déclenchement se tienne sur l'axe de rotation de la barre.The two supports 37,38 also comprise at their end opposite to the previous one, a counterweight 44,45, or weight, one 44 of the two being larger than the other, this counterweight being intended to prevent inadvertent tripping when vibrations occur on the product. These counterweights represent a mass of material arranged so that the center of mass of the trigger bar is held on the axis of rotation of the bar.

En position montée de la barre de déclenchement 35, le second support 38 est monté dans une partie de boîtier 52 (fig.6) se trouvant à l'extrémité libre des appareils de départ. Le premier support précité 37 est monté dans le module de référence 9 par rapport auquel la tige est montée en rotation, ce qui assure à la barre un bon référencement par rapport à ce module de référence 9 qui lui permet d'être toujours dans la bonne position par rapport aux moyens de déclenchement dits premiers 18,19,20 de l'appareil principal.In the mounted position of the trip bar 35, the second support 38 is mounted in a housing part 52 ( fig.6 ) at the free end of the starting devices. The first aforesaid support 37 is mounted in the reference module 9 with respect to which the rod is mounted in rotation, which ensures the bar a good referencing with respect to this reference module 9 which allows it to be always in the right position relative to the so-called first tripping means 18,19,20 of the main apparatus.

Le premier support précité 37 comporte également une tige dite d'actionnement 46 (fig.7,fig.8) s'étendant parallèlement à la poutre en direction de l'appareil principal et destiné à actionner les moyens de déclenchement dits premiers de l'appareil principal comme ceci sera décrit ultérieurement.The first aforementioned support 37 also comprises a so-called actuating rod 46 ( fig.7 , fig.8 ) extending parallel to the beam in the direction of the main apparatus and for actuating the so-called first trigger means of the main apparatus as will be described later.

On notera également tel qu'illustré sur la figure 12, la présence d'un ressort 47 monté à l'intérieur du module de référence 9, fixé d'une part, au premier support 37 et d'autre part, à un support 48 du module de référence, ce ressort étant destiné à polariser la barre de manière à empêcher le déclenchement en présence de vibrations, aidé en cela par les masselottes. Les masselottes permettent en effet de limiter la taille du ressort et ainsi de réduire les contraintes sur les mécanismes de déclenchement de chacun des modules de départ.We will also note as illustrated on the figure 12 , the presence of a spring 47 mounted inside the reference module 9, fixed on the one hand, to the first support 37 and on the other hand, to a support 48 of the reference module, this spring being intended to polarize the bar so as to prevent triggering in the presence of vibrations, helped by the weights. The flyweights indeed make it possible to limit the size of the spring and thus to reduce the stresses on the trigger mechanisms of each of the starting modules.

Ce ressort sert donc à empêcher les déclenchements intempestifs dus aux vibrations en association avec les masselottes.This spring is therefore used to prevent inadvertent tripping due to vibration in combination with the flyweights.

La barre de déclenchement comporte également une butée apte à coopérer avec une aiguille manipulée par l'opérateur pour réaliser un test de déclenchement. L'opérateur fait pénétrer l'aiguille dans l'appareil à travers un trou aménagé en face avant du boîtier. Une étiquette auto-collante est apposée sur le trou pour le masquer après contrôle de l'appareil.The trip bar also comprises a stop capable of cooperating with a needle manipulated by the operator to perform a trip test. The operator causes the needle to enter the apparatus through a hole in the front of the housing. A self-adhesive label is affixed to the hole to hide it after checking the device.

Le fonctionnement du tableau va être décrit dans ce qui suit en référence aux figures. Lorsque le bilame de l'un des modules de départ 1 à 8 a une déflection suffisante due à une surcharge du courant, le bilame vient actionner la barre de déclenchement d'un mécanisme de déclenchement avec accrochage, ressort et platine. La platine 49 entre en contact avec la barre 35 (fig.10,fig.11), puis entraîne en rotation la barre dans le sens anti-horaire, ce qui commande le déclenchement de l'appareil principal 10 par l'intermédiaire de la tige d'actionnement précitée 46 (fig.7) et, par là-même, l'arrêt du courant.The operation of the table will be described in the following with reference to the figures. When the bimetallic strip of one of the starting modules 1 to 8 has a sufficient deflection due to a current overload, the bimetallic strip operates the trigger bar of a mechanism trigger with latching, spring and platinum. The plate 49 comes into contact with the bar 35 ( fig.10 , fig.11 ), then rotates the bar counterclockwise, which controls the triggering of the main apparatus 10 via the aforementioned actuating rod 46 ( fig.7 ) and, by the same token, the cessation of the current.

Ainsi, selon l'invention, la barre de déclenchement 35 est réalisée en quatre parties différentes faciles à mouler sans déformation. La poutre 36 est une simple partie droite facile à introduire à travers tous les appareils de départ 1 à 8.Thus, according to the invention, the trigger bar 35 is made of four different parts easy to mold without deformation. The beam 36 is a straight simple part easy to introduce through all the starting devices 1 to 8.

Le premier support d'extrémité 37 présente quatre fonctionnalités. Il supporte l'articulation de la barre autour de l'axe principal X, cette articulation devant compenser tous les défauts d'alignement avec le second support d'articulation 38. Pour cela, la liaison entre le support et la tige d'actionnement est une articulation du type à rotule.The first end support 37 has four features. It supports the articulation of the bar about the main axis X, this joint must compensate for all misalignment with the second articulation support 38. For this, the connection between the support and the actuating rod is a ball joint type.

Il assure un bon maintien et un bon positionnement de la poutre 36 par un long guidage de la poutre et un bon référencement par rapport à la partie de référence 9, ce qui permet à la barre de déclenchement d'être toujours dans le bon positionnement par rapport aux moyens de déclenchement dit premiers 18,19,20 de l'appareil principal 10 (disjoncteur).It ensures a good support and a good positioning of the beam 36 by a long guidance of the beam and a good referencing relative to the reference part 9, which allows the trigger bar to always be in the correct positioning by relative to the first said tripping means 18,19,20 of the main apparatus 10 (circuit breaker).

De plus, cette partie d'extrémité supporte un contrepoids 44 et supporte la tige d'actionnement 46 des moyens de déclenchement précités de l'appareil principal.In addition, this end portion supports a counterweight 44 and supports the actuating rod 46 of said triggering means of the main apparatus.

Le second support 38 assure le maintien, le positionnement et le guidage de la barre du côté opposé.The second support 38 maintains, positions and guides the bar on the opposite side.

L'axe métallique long 39, ou tige d'articulation, supporte tous les mécanismes des appareils de départ et la barre. Cet axe est supporté par le module de référence 9 et le couvercle du dernier module de départ. Cet axe long 39 est une référence pour toutes les parties fonctionnelles et permet d'avoir un bon alignement et toujours un bon fonctionnement même en cas d'importantes déformations en torsion de l'ensemble des modules de départ 1 à 8.The long metal axis 39, or hinge pin, supports all the mechanisms of the starting apparatus and the bar. This axis is supported by the reference module 9 and the cover of the last starting module. This long axis 39 is a reference for all the functional parts and makes it possible to have a good alignment and always a good operation even in case of significant torsional deformations of all the starting modules 1 to 8.

On a donc réalisé selon l'invention une barre de déclenchement facile à fabriquer sans déformation en différentes longueurs et facile à assembler à travers tous les appareils de départ.It has therefore been realized according to the invention a trigger bar easy to manufacture without deformation in different lengths and easy to assemble through all the starting devices.

Cette barre permet d'obtenir de bonnes fonctionnalités comme un guidage parfait et un positionnement parfait, de réduire la déformation sous l'effet des chocs en fonctionnement, de diminuer les déclenchements intempestifs dus aux vibrations, et a une bonne tenue sous des conditions tropicales.This bar provides good features such as perfect guidance and perfect positioning, reduced deformation due to shocks during operation, reduced inadvertent tripping due to vibration, and good resistance under tropical conditions.

Quatre des composants de la barre, c'est-à-dire la poutre, les deux supports et l'axe peuvent être assemblés sur la ligne de production.Four of the bar components, that is the beam, the two supports and the shaft can be assembled on the production line.

Bien entendu, l'invention n'est pas limitée aux modes de réalisation décrits et illustrés qui n'ont été donnés qu'à titre d'exemple. C'est ainsi par exemple que le nombre de modules de départ peut être inférieur ou supérieur à 8.
Au contraire, l'invention comprend tous les équivalents techniques des moyens décrits.Of course, the invention is not limited to the embodiments described and illustrated which have been given by way of example. For example, the number of starting modules may be less than or greater than 8.
On the contrary, the invention comprises all the technical equivalents of the means described.
