Definitions
- the invention relates to a dust-protected electrical contact, the live parts of which are arranged in a closed housing.
- Such dust-protected contacts have hitherto become known in the form of the so-called reed relays, which consist of a cylindrical glass housing, in the wall of which two or more contact tongues, which are superimposed with their contact ends at the distance from the switching stroke, are melted and actuated by the magnetic field of a solenoid become.
- a disadvantage of these contacts is, on the one hand, the extremely high sensitivity of the glass housing at the melting points, which has the consequence that rib formation can often be observed there as a result of low external impact forces.
- Another disadvantage of this contact is the low switching capacity, which results from the low switching stroke that can be managed by the electromagnetic field acting directly on the contact blades.
- the invention has for its object to provide an electrical contact of the type described, the housing is insensitive to rough treatment during transport and with the much larger currents than can be switched.
- the housing consists entirely or partially of an elastic material and the switching stroke takes place under the action of an actuating force (F) deforming the elastic housing wall.
- F actuating force
- two caps made of sheet metal or other rigid material, through which the contact tongues are guided, can be connected to one another by an elastic intermediate piece, or the housing can be made entirely of elastic material.
- the housing sections to be deformed for making contact are expediently made of plastic.
- a contact according to the invention Since the housing of the contact, which is now no longer made of glass, is now largely insensitive to impacts and vibrations as well as temperature differences, a contact according to the invention always remains protected against dust even under rough operating conditions. Another important advantage of a contact according to the invention results from the possibility, instead of the previously usual contact actuation by direct field action on the contact tongues, now deforming the housing by mechanical action thereon and thereby producing the switching stroke of the contact. The occurring elastic bracing of the housing provides the restoring force of the contact after the actuating force has been released.
- the contact according to the invention can be used in a conventional so-called reed relay; However, it can also by the armature of an electromagnet, which Housing deformed, operated. Likewise, the deformation of the contact housing can also be carried out by means of a plunger which is moved in a purely translatory manner, for example the plunger of a hand-operated key or the iron core of a magnetic coil.
- such a resilient housing is provided, which the two housing sections, in which one or more contact tongues are arranged under the action of an external actuating force, perform a relative movement with respect to one another in which the contact tongues participate, which after the actuating force has been canceled out the action of the restoring force of the housing return to the starting position.
- the housing is provided with one or more notches, which bring about a local reduction in the bending resistance moment of this housing, as a result of which the position of the bending point of the housing and the size of the required bending force and the resulting restoring force and the size of the contact force are defined.
- the notches of the housing are expediently produced by stamps and do not always have to be arranged in the transverse plane passing through the center of the housing. An asymmetrical arrangement can also be useful in some cases.
- the elastic housing of the contact is produced by a method ren, in the context of which the formation of the notches and the production of the dust-tight connection of the housing halves takes place simultaneously.
- Fig. 2 shows the longitudinal section. 1, with the difference that the contact is in the closed position
- FIG. 3 shows the longitudinal section through a further exemplary embodiment of a contact according to the invention in the open position
- Fig. 7 is a schematic representation of a magnetically mechanically operated relay using a contact according to the invention.
- Fig. 8 shows the schematic representation of a switch with inventive contact and translationally perpendicular to the housing wall of the same actuated actuating element.
- the contact tongues 2 and. 3 made of electrically conductive material in a manner known per se so that they can be brought into contact with each other at the contact point 4. Now acts on the housing 1 acc. Fig. 2 the operating force F applied in any way, while the other housing half is clamped in the holder 5, the housing 1 bends in the manner shown, and the contact tongue 3 lies in the contact point 4 on the contact tongue 2.
- the contact shown in Fig. 3 differs from that acc. Fig. 1 in that in the middle of the longitudinal extent-of the housing 6, the two notches 7 u. 8 have been incorporated, through which the minimum section modulus against bending is set.
- the housing 6 bends when the actuating force F occurs in the position shown in Fig. 4, consequently the two contact tongues 2 u. 3 at the contact point 4 to the system. If the actuating force F is released, the restoring force F R causes of the elastic housing 6, the interruption of the contact after this housing 6 has returned to the relieved position shown in FIG. 3.
- the notches 7 u. 8 are gem. 5 expediently by stamp 9 u. 10, in the direction of arrows 11 u. 12 are moved, pressed into the plastic housing 6.
- stamp 9 u. 10 in the direction of arrows 11 u. 12 are moved, pressed into the plastic housing 6.
- the bending point of the housing 6 is clearly defined, and there are therefore precisely defined contacting conditions.
- the magnet coil 13 is placed around the housing 6 of a contact according to the invention, when the contact tongues 2 and 21 are excited. 3 to mutual contact.
- the contact tongues 2 u. 3 must of course consist of electrically and magnetically conductive material.
- the right half of the housing 6 is deflected by means of the button 16, which is in the direction of the arrow les 17 is moved.
- the button 16 which is in the direction of the arrow les 17 is moved.
- Return spring After the actuating force acting in the direction of arrow 17 has been canceled, the housing 6 automatically returns to the open position of the contact shown in FIG. 8.

Abstract
Le contact electrique est constitue par un boitier (1) entierement ou en partie deformable elastiquement, dans les parois duquel sont inserees, de maniere etanche a la poussiere, au moins deux lames de contact (2, 3). Les surfaces de contact (4) des lames sont placees vis-a-vis et entrent en contact lors d'une deformation appropriee du boitier, par exemple lorsque le boitier est incurve dans son plan longitudinal. Des que la force d'actionnement (F) cesse, le boitier revient dans sa position de repos sous l'effet de ses proprietes elastiques et les surfaces de contact sont ecartees l'une de l'autre. Le nombre de points de contact, la section de droite du boitier, le materiau du boitier, le mecanisme d'actionnement et le sens de deformation peuvent etre choisis dans une plage tres large.
