Abstract

Claims (53)

1. A switching module for an on-load tap-changer, the switching module comprising:

a plate having a first side and a second side that is opposite the first side;

a vacuum interrupter; and

a bridge switch,

wherein the vacuum interrupter is on the first side,

wherein the bridge switch, which is directly behind the vacuum interrupter, is on the second side,

wherein the vacuum interrupter comprises a first contact and a second contact,

wherein a first fixed contact is mechanically and electrically connected to the first contact,

wherein a second fixed contact is mechanically and electrically connected to the second contact,

wherein the first fixed contact and the second fixed contact extend through the plate from the first side to the second side,

wherein the bridge switch comprises a movable bridge contact,

wherein the movable bridge contact is configured to be moved into at least three positions, and

wherein the bridge contact contacts at least one free end of the first fixed contact and at least one free end of the second fixed contact in each case individually or simultaneously and connects the free end of the first fixed contact and the free end of the second fixed contact to a load take-off lead.

2. The switching module for the on-load tap-changer as claimed in claim 1 , wherein:

the first fixed contact and the second fixed contact are formed from, in each case, two electrically conducting wires,

a fixed end of the first fixed contact and a fixed end of the second fixed contact are connected mechanically and in an electrically conducting manner to the first contact and the second contact,

a free end of the first fixed contact and a free end of the second fixed contact are arranged on the second side to surround the vacuum interrupter.

3. The switching module for the on-load tap-changer as claimed in claim 1 , wherein:

the bridge contact comprises a housing with at least one contact lamella,

the at least one contact lamella is connected to a load take-off lead in an electrically conducting manner.

4. The switching module for the on-load tap-changer as claimed in claim 3 , wherein:

the bridge contact with the housing and the contact lamella, and free ends of the first fixed contact and the second fixed contact form the bridge switch.

5. The switching module for the on-load tap-changer as claimed in claim 1 , the switching module further comprising:

a bearing block which serves as a guide for the first contact and as a mounting for a rocker lever.

6. The switching module for the on-load tap-changer as claimed in claim 1 , wherein:

the vacuum interrupter and the bridge switch are configured to be actuated via a common drive shaft.

7. The on-load tap-changer as claimed in claim 1 , the on-load tap-changer comprising:

a transition resistor or a connecting piece to a throttle on the plate.

8. The switching module for the on-load tap-changer as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the first contact is a moveable and mounted on a bearing block mechanically connected to the plate, and the second contract is fixed,

wherein the switching module further comprises a tilting lever fastened to the bearing block, a first end of the tilting lever being mechanically connected to the first contact, the second end of the tilting lever, being opposite the first end, comprising a roller,

wherein the switching module further comprises a cam disk fastened to a drive shaft, the cam disk being configured to act on the roller during rotation of the drive shaft to cause the first contact to move, and

wherein the cam disk is arranged on a second side of the plate.

9. A switching module for an on-load tap-changer, the switching module comprising:

a plate having a first side and a second side that is opposite the first side;

a vacuum interrupter; and

a bridge switch,

wherein the vacuum interrupter is on the first side,

wherein the bridge switch, which is directly behind the vacuum interrupter, is on the second side,

wherein: the bridge contact comprises a housing with at least one contact lamella, and

wherein the at least one contact lamella is connected to a load take-off lead in an electrically conducting manner.

10. A switching module for an on-load tap-changer, the switching module comprising:

a plate having a first side and a second side that is opposite the first side;

a vacuum interrupter; and

a bridge switch,

wherein the vacuum interrupter is on the first side,

wherein the bridge switch, which is directly behind the vacuum interrupter, is on the second side,

wherein the vacuum interrupter comprises a first contact and a second contact,

wherein a first fixed contact is mechanically and electrically connected to the first contact,

wherein a second fixed contact is mechanically and electrically connected to the second contact,

wherein the first fixed contact and the second fixed contact extend through the plate from the first side to the second side,

wherein the first fixed contact and the second fixed contact are formed from, in each case, two electrically conducting wires,

wherein a fixed end of the first fixed contact and a fixed end of the second fixed contact are connected mechanically and in an electrically conducting manner to the first contact and the second contact, and

wherein a free end of the first fixed contact and a free end of the second fixed contact are arranged on the second side to surround the vacuum interrupter.
