For the design of actuated components and associated components thereof, in a preferred embodiment of the invention, actuated components 20 is connected on the Part I of current-carrying board component 10 pivotly, moving armature 30 is attached on actuated components 20, static gag bit 40 is connected on the Part II of current-carrying board component 10, and moving armature 30 and static gag bit 40 form an electromagnet unit relative to one another, and current-carrying board component 10 is communicated with the main circuit of circuit breaker, thus, electromagnet unit can be energized by current-carrying board component 10.Can find out, in a preferred embodiment of the invention, current-carrying board component plays the effect energized for electromagnet unit and support simultaneously, thus is conducive to designs simplification.Certainly, electromagnet unit also can be energized by alternate manner, as long as the electric current of energizing to electromagnet unit is associated with the electric current of circuit breaker main circuit (such as but not limited to, there is between energized current and main circuit current certain proportion relation), be associated with the electric current of the action with main circuit that make electromagnet unit (such as overload current and short circuit current).
Further, as Figure 1-3, actuated components 20 upwards extends thus makes the top of actuated components 20 indicate dropout actuation component 70 bottom higher than tripping actuation component 50 and short circuit, thus makes the pivoting action of actuated components 20 can actuate both tripping actuation component 50 and short circuit instruction dropout actuation component 70.Pivoting action can realize actuating of corresponding component in less space, thus is conducive to the miniaturization of whole Pyromagnetic release.Moreover pivoting action carries out actuating and is also conducive to improving job stability and useful life.
For the design of tripping actuation component and associated components thereof, in a preferred embodiment of the invention, with reference to Fig. 2 and 3, tripping actuation component 50 has pivotable body 503 and is connected to first arm 501 and second arm 502 being in certain angle of this body 503, the first arm 501 can be pressed to make this first arm 501 pivotable to make the pivotable of actuated components 20, and then drive the second arm 502 pivotable by body 503, and then tripping 60 and tripping actuation component 50 are threaded off.As previously mentioned, the structural design of the pivoting action of tripping actuation component have such as make that Pyromagnetic release is miniaturized, structure simple, the advantage such as reliable operation and long service life.
Short circuit is indicated to the design of dropout actuation component and associated components thereof, in a preferred embodiment of the invention, with reference to Fig. 2 and 3, short circuit instruction dropout actuation component 70 has pivotable main body 703 and is connected to first bar 701 and second bar 702 being in certain angle of this main body 703, the first bar 701 can be pressed to make this first bar pivotable to make the pivotable of actuated components 20, and then drive the second bar 702 pivotable by main body 703, and then short circuit is made to indicate release member 80 and short circuit to indicate dropout actuation component 70 to thread off.
For the design of bimetal leaf and associated components thereof, in a preferred embodiment of the invention, with reference to Fig. 1-3, bimetal leaf 90 is connected on current-carrying board component, when overload appears in circuit, it is by heating with its parts attached mutually on current-carrying board component, thus the deflection that deforms, and then press a part for tripping actuation component 50, such as, from the rod member that body 503 extends, to make the pivoted motion of tripping actuation component 50, and then tripping 60 and tripping actuation component 50 are threaded off.
Thus, the electric current of electromagnet unit generation action can be arranged a threshold value, the corresponding minimum short circuit current of this threshold value, namely when electric current is less than this threshold value, when namely there is not short trouble when normally working and overload fault occurring (comprise circuit), there is not action in electromagnet unit; And when electric current is greater than this threshold value, when namely there is short trouble, electromagnet unit generation action.More particularly, electromagnet unit is placed through current-carrying board component 10 and energizes, and be set to when the main circuit of circuit breaker normally runs or overload occurs, this electromagnet unit is also failure to actuate, and when the main circuit of circuit breaker is short-circuited, electromagnet unit action, move towards static gag bit 40 to make moving armature 30, both tripping actuation component 50 and short circuit instruction dropout actuation component 70 is pressed to make actuated components 20 rotate, to thread off to make tripping 60 and tripping actuation component 50 and short circuit indicate release member 80 and short circuit to indicate dropout actuation component 70 to thread off.
On the other hand, bimetal leaf 90 is placed through current-carrying board component 10 and is heated, and be set to when the main circuit of circuit breaker normally runs, the temperature distortion deflection of this bimetal leaf 90 is not enough to press tripping actuation component 50 and moves to make tripping actuation component 50, and when overload occurs the main circuit of circuit breaker, the temperature distortion deflection of this bimetal leaf 90 presses tripping actuation component 50 and threads off to make tripping 60 and tripping actuation component 50.
With reference to Figure 4 and 5, it illustrates the three-dimensional side view of the internal structure of Pyromagnetic release according to a first advantageous embodiment of the invention.
In the diagram, the pivotable main body 703 of short circuit instruction dropout actuation component 70 is depicted as an elongated rod member, this elongated rod member is socketed in the axle of the sidewall of the housing through release, thus this elongated rod member can pivotable, and then the first bar 701 and the second bar 702 of the elongated rod member form on it can be driven.The top of actuated components 20 indicates the first bar 701 of dropout actuation component 70 higher than short circuit and protects the first arm 501 of actuation component bottom, can press the first bar 701 and the first arm 501 to make actuated components 20 in pivotable process.
In Figure 5, can know and find out that the second arm 502 of tripping actuation component has ledge structure, the part snapping to downward-extension of the left end of this step and tripping 60.Can predict, the second arm 502 is rotated counterclockwise under the actuating of actuated components 20, and the second arm 502 will be threaded off with tripping 60.Thus, achieve snapping and the tripping function of tripping actuation component and tripping, but obviously, the present invention is not limited to specific execution mode shown in the drawings, as long as the snapping of the two can be realized and thread off.
In Figure 5, can also know and find out, the second bar 702 of short circuit instruction dropout actuation component has the hook formation to downward-extension, this hook formation and short circuit indicate the part snapping upwards extended of the left end of release member 80.Can predict, the second arm 502 is rotated counterclockwise under the actuating of actuated components 20, and the second bar 702 will indicate release member 80 to thread off in short circuit.Thus, achieve short circuit and indicate dropout actuation component and short circuit to indicate snapping and the tripping function of release member, but obviously, the present invention is not limited to specific execution mode shown in the drawings, as long as the snapping of the two can be realized and thread off.
Thus, achieve under overload and short-circuit conditions, the inside linkage part of Pyromagnetic release has different motions respectively, and then can judge that the preferred structure of overload fault or short trouble designs by the motion of tripping and short circuit instruction release member.
The motion how observing and/or identify tripping and short circuit instruction release member is then described below.
With reference to Fig. 6, it is the schematic plan of the exterior panel structure of the Pyromagnetic release illustrated as shown in Figure 1.In figure 6, Pyromagnetic release has a housing, holds the above-mentioned internal part of Pyromagnetic release.This housing has first window 1001 and Second Window 1002, and a part for tripping 60 is visible by first window 1001, and a part for short circuit instruction release member 80 is visible by Second Window 1002.If learn that this tripping and this short circuit instruction release member are not all threaded off by observation, then show normal operation circuit, if learn this tripping dropout by observation and this short circuit instruction release member is not threaded off, then show circuit overloads, if learn that this tripping and this short circuit instruction release member are all threaded off by observation, then show short circuit.
Further, a part for tripping 60 can be provided with mark so that observe, to make the motion of this mark can be visible to indicate this tripping 60 whether to thread off by first window 1001.Similarly, a part for short circuit instruction release member 80 also can be provided with mark so that observe, to make the motion of this mark can by Second Window 1002 as seen to indicate this short circuit to indicate release member 80 whether to thread off.Above-mentioned mark can be such as pattern, colour code or other form.Such as, in the embodiment illustrated in fig. 6, tripping 60 is labeled as " TRIP " printed words, and short circuit instruction release member 80 is labeled as " S.C. " printed words.During normal operation circuit, tripping and short circuit instruction release member are not all threaded off, and can't see " TRIP " and " S.C. " printed words in first window 1001 and Second Window 1002 respectively.When overload occurs, tripping is threaded off and moves right (see Fig. 3), mark on it correspondingly can be seen by first window 1001, therefore in first window 1001, there are " TRIP " printed words, now, because short circuit instruction release member is not threaded off, therefore can't see " S.C. " printed words at Second Window 1002, thus, there are not " S.C. " printed words when appearance " TRIP " printed words, then can occur overload fault in decision circuitry.When a short circuit occurs, tripping is threaded off and moves right (see Fig. 2), mark on it correspondingly can be seen by first window 1001, therefore in first window 1001, occur " TRIP " printed words, now, short circuit instruction release member is also threaded off and moves right (see Fig. 2), therefore " S.C. " printed words are seen at Second Window 1002, thus, when there are " TRIP " printed words and " S.C. " printed words simultaneously, then short trouble can have been there is in decision circuitry.
