Longer arm of additional lever interacts with insulating lever, while its shorter arm acts on auxiliary contact unit push-button. Ratio of auxiliary lever short arm-to-its long arm equals the ration of auxiliary contact set button-to-insulating lever stroke at the point of interaction with auxiliary lever. Auxiliary lever can have positive camber on the side of interaction with auxiliary contact set button.

Vacuum contactor

Electromagnetic drive for vacuum circuit breaker

Electromagnetic drive for vacuum circuit breaker

Invention relates to electrical engineering, to electromagnetic drives of vacuum high-voltage circuit breakers. The electromagnetic drive is made from an imbricated core, actuating and tripping coils, armature and permanent magnets. The electromagnetic drive is provided with two magnetic latches, which hold the armature in its two extreme positions due to the effect of permanent magnets. The armature has frontal working gaps: one near the left end, and the other near the right end. The electromagnetic drive has several galvanically unconnected tripping coils with nominal power of not more than 0.33 kW each. Near one end in the zone of the tripping coil there two more lateral working gaps. Magnetic conductance of the lateral working gaps is several times more than magnetic conductance of the frontal working gap.

Exchange device

Exchange device

Invention belongs to the field of high currency energy impulse electrical energy technology. The exchange device consists of a vacuum chamber, with two wires inside, stationary and moving electrodes, each in contact with two, identical contact elements. Each contact element is electrically joined to the wire with the aid of the appropriate current contact jaw. Furthermore, each current contact comprises a braced, current distributor. Each braced, current distributor includes between the primary and secondary current distributor a vertical outer strip. The horizontal, middle strip is in the form of a coil whose rings are unidirectionally turned down beneath the direct corner in the direction of the exit wire. The bent, outside end of the coil is coupled beneath the direct corner with the second outer strip, which is in the shape of an right-angled bracket, whose side flange is parallel to the plane of the coil in the central part and located between the orthogonal to it and parallel between the primary and secondary lateral elements. Furthermore, the length of the accompanying bent, internal ring of the wire from the secondary lateral element is less than the length of the primary lateral element for the length of the primary outer section of the braced, current distributor.

High-voltage vacuum circuit breaker

High-voltage vacuum circuit breaker

Invention relates to electrical engineering, particularly to high-voltage vacuum circuit breakers. The high-voltage vacuum circuit breaker contains a frame, a pole terminal with vacuum arc-quenching chambers and isolating rods, shaft, electromagnet with an interleaved core, actuating and tripping coils, armature and permanent magnets. The electromagnet is provided with two latches which hold the armature in two extreme positions due to the effect of the permanent magnets. The armature has two end clearances: one near the left end and the other near the right end. Near one end in the area of the tripping coil there are two more lateral working clearances. Magnetic conductance of the lateral working clearance is several times greater than magnetic conductance of the said end working clearance. Also the vacuum circuit breaker has a tripping spring.
