Switching device arrangement
View Patent ↗A switching device arrangement has a first contact set and a second contact set. The first contact set includes a first electric arc contact element and a first nominal current contact element. The first nominal current contact element can be moved relative to the first electric arc contact element. A first transmission is introduced in a kinematic chain in order to generate a relative movement of the first nominal current contact element and the first electric arc contact element. The first transmission is operationally connected between a stationary counter bearing and the first electric arc contact piece.
1. A switching device arrangement, comprising:
a first contact set and a second contact set, said first contact set being disposed for movement relative to said second contact set in order to produce a switching contact between respective contacts;
said first contact set having an arcing contact piece and a nominal current contact piece movably disposed relative to one another;
a kinematic chain connected to said nominal current contact piece configured to impress a movement onto said nominal current contact piece;
a stationary counter bearing; and
a gearing forming an operative connection between said stationary counter bearing and said arcing contact piece, wherein a relative movement is effected between said nominal current contact piece and said arcing contact piece via said gearing;
said stationary counter bearing being coupled to said gearing via a slotted guide path.
2. The switching device arrangement according to claim 1 , wherein said stationary counter bearing is configured to control a transmission behavior of said gearing.
3. The switching device arrangement according to claim 1 , wherein said gearing is mounted on said first contact set.
4. The switching device arrangement according to claim 3 , wherein said gearing is mounted on said nominal current contact piece.
5. The switching device arrangement according to claim 1 , wherein said nominal current contact piece is mounted movably in relation to said stationary counter bearing.
6. The switching device arrangement according to claim 1 , wherein said gearing includes a control element guided on said stationary counter bearing.
7. The switching device arrangement according to claim 1 , wherein the gearing comprises a pivot element pivotally attached to said nominal current contact piece.
8. The switching device arrangement according to claim 1 , wherein said gearing comprises a lever arrangement.
9. The switching device arrangement according to claim 1 , wherein said gearing is a first gearing and said kinematic chain comprises a second gearing for coupling in a movement at said nominal current contact piece.
10. The switching device arrangement according to claim 9 , wherein said second gearing is stationarily mounted.
11. The switching device arrangement according to claim 1 , wherein said kinematic chain includes an electrically insulating transmission element.
12. The switching device arrangement according to claim 11 , wherein said electrically insulating transmission element is an insulating nozzle protruding into a clearance between the contacts.
13. The switching device arrangement according to claim 1 , which comprises a common drive apparatus commonly driving said first and second contact sets.
14. The switching device arrangement according to claim 1 , wherein said gearing is a first gearing and said kinematic chain includes a second gearing, and wherein said first gearing and said second gearing are arranged in succession in a direction of a flow of force.
15. The switching device arrangement according to claim 14 , wherein said second gearing includes a stationarily mounted rotation element.
16. The switching device arrangement according to claim 15 , wherein said rotation element is a gearwheel.
17. The switching device arrangement according to claim 15 , wherein said rotation element is a pivot lever.
18. The switching device arrangement according to claim 14 , wherein one of said first and second gearings is configured to convert a driving movement into an oppositely directed driven movement and a respectively other gearing is configured to amplify the oppositely directed movement.
19. The switching device arrangement according to claim 14 , wherein said second gearing converts the driving movement into the oppositely directed driven movement and said first gearing amplifies the oppositely directed movement.
